Luckily the occupants of the car were not seriously hurt, although the car was badly damaged. ' This bridge is a dangerous place, having been the scene of several accidents in a few months. Only a few weeks ago Mr. and Mrs. Henry J. Schaeffer tipped over at the same place under very similar circumstances. With fche heavy traffic over this bridge that there is every day something should be done to relieve this danger. The road narrows as it approaches the bridge and at night, especially when meeting a car, the outline of the bridge is very hard to discern, consequently causing these accidents. If a few electric lights were placed on the railing of the bridge this danger could be averted and they would also add to the appearance of the bridge. This would require only a small amount of work and expense and should be attended to before something of a more serious nature happens.

Hayes Addresses Small Auldence at Community High School Saturday L. G. Hayes, a social worker, connected with the Illinois Children's Aid society, gave a very interesting talk on the work of the society at the Community high school auditorium Saturday afternoon. The Boys' Home at McHenry is under the supervision of this society, as are also a number of other homes throughout the state. Several musical selections were given by the Ladies' orchestra, which were much enjoyed by those present. It is to be regretted that there were not more present to enjoy this interesting program. This society gives material aid and service to 4,173 children during the year and this continuous service of the society requires a gross annual expenditure of about $300,000. This was made possible only through the steady and increasing help of the directors, the self-sacrificing devotion of the staff workers and the remarkable co-operation of the social and medical agencies in various communities throughout the state. The home at McHenry, under the management of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Kline, has several boys whom they are caring for and sending to school. These boys were well remembered at the holiday season, but let us not forget them. now. These boys are worthy of your help and attention.
