Illinois: The West Half of the Northwest Quarter of Section 8; and that part of the West Half o. the Southwest Quarter of Section 5 lying south and west of the public highway; all in Township 45 North, Range 8 East of the Third Principal Meridian, McHenry County, Illinois.

Dated this 12th day of March, A. D. 1953. County Board of School Trustees of McHenry County, Illinois. By: R. L. TAZEWELL, Secretary. (Pub. March 19-26, April 2) per cent of the population over 65 years of age which cannot be overlooked in an pver-all program." In the survey, Mr. Homey found „ that the community of Johnsburg has a memorial build-, i|ig near completion, well design-1 ed, such as every community should have. The spacious joom in the V. F. W. clubhouse and the shaded grounds lend themselves well to a community program. The Legion Home is also a good all-purpose building and the shore line has possibilities. The school buildings have some of the finest facilities., to be seen but are not yet fully in service. The Masonic building has its place in an over-all' program. The Roller Rink has many potentialities. ? Lakemoor, he said, has desir-j able play area "fur all age.levels! in Fritzsche Estates. The Charm I House offers a desirable meet-j ing place for teen-agers. The Community house under construction will haVe adequate all purpose space. The Ringwood area, he added, is high and desirable for ehildrens' playground. Wonder Lake, though now without a large room for meeting, is ideal for aquatic activities. The like is true of McCullom Lake. The McHenry shore line, too, is not yet developed. Here Mr. Homey suggested close check on water tests. The municipal ball field needs shelter and drinking water. Mr. Horney praised modern thinking of the school superintendent and the cooperation of his boards. In his observation, he found well designed school buildings and many desirable depaitments in the' educational program. In summing up, Mr. Horncy suggested working up a master program or schedule with a coordinator and correctly bringing it to each hamlet through a selected leader. He advised working with existing organizations at first. The program should reach all children first; mornings should provide for little children; . afternoons, may serve older boys and girls; evening programs should provide for teen-agers and oldsters. A summer program can be started iin- LEGALS N O T I C E AN ORDINANCE FIXING THE POLLING PLACES AND DES mediately with out-door nctivi- j IGNATING THE JUDGES AND ties; it would be rather easy with present facilities. Plans for a fall program could soon be under way for in-door activities. With the cooperation of the N!R,E^Al. as a source of suggestions, desired activities should be available to every individual in the community. The coordinated program jAd provide for creative, edMptional and recreational irtforests. How can money be raised? For the first year, Mr. Hbrney said, in other communities not far from., McHenry contributions came from organizations, individuals and memberships. How a b o u t t r a n s p o r t a t i o n ? There are school busses available nd can be properly scheduled under a well outlined program. Mr. Horney came to the McHenry Community > without charge. Mayer George P.
