Au^uki 1. 19571- ZONING HEARINGS ABE SCHEDULED IN CITY AUGUST 6 v Three hearings wiil be held oh Tuesday, Avlg. 6, at 3 p.m. in the ;'city hall in McHenry.

The property is Lot0 13 in Smith's Bank subdivision. Prepare Child For Kindergarten This is the first in a series of articles on the preparation of children for kindergarten. Local teachers of small boys and girls feel parents may well benefit from mahy of the suggestions: Patricia Robinson, University of Illinois child development specialist, suggests that you look ahead to some new experience your child will have and start preparing for them. For instance, a child who has seldom gone beyond his own yard will be at a loss when the postoffice and train station are discussed in school. So take him to these places, as well as to other places in the community. When you do, don't just drive by and expect the youngster to learn about it. Show him different things and encourage him to ask questions to find out things for himself. You should encourage him to play with other children so that when he starts school he will know something about sharing playthings. Another part of your iob in preparing your child for kindergarten is to teach him some specific thines. He should know his name, address, telephone number and parents' name, by all means. He should also know "how to care for himself at the toilet and how to dress himself. The clothes you buy can either help or hinder his learning to dress. Cardigan sweaters are easier to put on than slip-over sweaters. OPEN FUND CAMPAIGN Rev. Fr. E. C. Coakley and Rev. Fr.

Joyce Treiman is an Evanstonian by birth and is interested in depicting man's struggle and his relation to God. Youngest Painter Arthur Okamura is the youngest painter to be invited to the American show at the Art- Institute. He served in the United States Army and has taught at the Art Institute. All of the invited artists exhibiting at the fair have been winners of awards and travelling fellowships. prizes and ^ honors, and most are still actively creating new thoughts in the world of art and interpreting familiar scenes in a new manner. While some of the local artists exhibiting at the show have not had the wide experience of the invited artists, their interest in art is keen, progressive and eduring. Their work, too, is worthy of a second glance, and perhaps a third glance will reveal something of special interest to you.

LATE BLIGHT OF TOMATO LOCATED IN COUNTY FIELDS Late blight of tomato was io? cated and identified near Harvard last week by university specialists. The infection was located in three separate fields. t The disease often occurs in rapidly expanding circular areas in field. On individual plants the spots begin on tlje lower leaves and pass upward. The leaves later turn black and dry, eventually killing the plant. The fruit are generally attacked while still green. The. diseased areas do not ripen and result in a poor quality crop. Moist conditions often aggravate the situation resulting in rapid spread Of the diseases. The fungus fe spread by rain and winds locally. Often the initial introduction of the disease may come with the transplants. In the case mentioned in the Harvard area, the plants came from Georgia-. Several sprays or. dusts are recommended to control the disease. Control measures should be repeated at seven to ten-day intervals. .
