The pair of one-way streets on Green and Court would extend as far north as Washington street. Both streets should eventually be paved, the consultants feel, to a width of 36 f^et. Washington street would serve as a two-way collector street between Riverside Drive and Richmond road. It is recommended that Third street be extended from Waukegan road northward across Bauer avenue to an intersection with Millstream Drive. It is anticipated that the rightof- way for this extension would be acquired through dedication since provision of this street would greatly enhance the value of the property both to the east and the west. The president of the board of trustees of a leading university recently released figures which he hoped would awaken his fellow Americans to put first things first. His facts are especially timely in our own community where school leaders hnvp found it necessary to ask public support of a number of bond issues to meet the needs of a growing enrollment. McHenry area residents have responded favorably, which speaks well for their understanding of the problem which continues to exist. The facts reveal that in 1958 the American p?ople spent more money -- $19 billions -- for liquor, tobacco and cosmetics compared to all forms of education, public and private, from the kindergarten through graduate school -- $18 billions. The school leader expressed his- opinion that we are too slow in growing up to ou'* position of leadership of the free world, adding a caution which others have also voiced, that if we do not rise to our responsibilities and possibilities economically, educationally and spiritually, some of us may live to see our country become a second-rate nation in many respects. On giving the subject much thought, we have no argument over the liquor and tobacco, but don't take those cosmetics away. This old world is drab enough now, and what do you suppose it would be like without a little powder and lipstick? SEEK CABLE PERMIT The Illinois Division of Waterways has announced receipt cf an application for construction permit by Illinois Bell Telephone Co. of Chicago to install a submarine cable under and across the Fox river about two miles south of McHenry, catalogs until after Dec. 25 to keep the mails clear for the Christmas rush. REMIND MOTORISTS OF "CINDERS FOR SAFETY" GIFTS Don't forget to pick up your free box of cinders for winter driving safety this coming Saturday, Dec. • At this time! members of the McHenry Junior Chamber of Commerce will again be stationed at several locations throughout town in order to distribute convenient boxes of cinders to motorists for winter driving traction. Locations for this Saturday will be the northwest corner of Front and - Elm streets, and the driveway of the McHenry fire house. Jaycee members will be glad to load a box of cinders in the car of 'anyone who desires them. DRIVING CHARGE DROPPED ' A charge of driving Without a driver's license against a Lakeland Park man was dropped last Thursday in county court when it was learned that he had not been informed of the revocation by the state and was still in possession of the license. Judge James H. Cooney accepted the recommendation of Assistant State's Attorney C. Russell Allen that the driver surrender his license to the court and apply ' for a hardship license. Remove Stains While They're A poll conducted throughoift the nation has resulted in the rose being named as a definite wirner for national flower. It .received 386,841 votes against 171,591 for the carnation, which was in second place. These were followed by the chrysanthemum, lily-of-the-valley, orchid, tulip, etc. Most of us wish for many Speed is the key to effective stain removal. An easy rule to remember about stains is that a fresh one is easier to remove than an old one. Most household stains--such as fruit, scorch, grass and light mildew--yield to a special solution of heavy duty dry chlorine bleach and detergent. Step one is to quickly rinse the stained area with cold water, then soak 5 to 15 minutes in a solution of l/4 cup of dry chlorine bleach and one tablespoon detergent per quart of warm water. Always mix in a polyethylene plastic, glass, porcelain or enamel container. Rinse, and repeat if necessary. Colored fabrics, however, should be tested for colorfastness before treating. For more stubborn stains, products around the kitchen or in the medicine chest come in handy. Butter is useful for softening tar stains. It changes tar into grease which can then be removed with a commercial cleaning fluid. Boiling a rust stained area in milk helps take out the spot. To remove lipstick or rouge stains, rub petroleum jolly into the stain and sponge it with cleaning fluid before laundering the article. If necessary, lipstick stains may also be soaked in a solution of dry chlorine bleach and detergent, then rinsed thoroughly. Bicarbonate (or baking) soda is good for removing salad dressing stains. Apply a paste of bicarbonate soda and cool water to the stained area. Let it dry, then launder the article in cool water. If the stain remains after the garment dries, sponge with cleaning fluid and launder again. Of' ~n stains from alcoholic drinks can be removed by simply soaking the articles in a solution of dry chlorine bleach and detergent. Truly successful people seem to 1. do things other people don't want to do, or, 2. do them better.
