Two busses will arrive at school each hour. 9, 10, 11, 1 and 2 o'clock with pupils for grades 1 through 8, and will return them forty-five minute^ later. Teachers will be assisted by members of the Parens Teacher association. ' A complete bus schedule for grade school pupils appears elsewhere in this issue. Two teachers' meetings on Tuesday morning, Sept. 4, will p r e c e d e a f t e r h o o n s e s s i o n s which begin at 12:30 for freshmen high school students and 1 o'clock for grade school pupils. All students will be In school for full sessions Wednesday, Sept. 5. County Supt. of. Schools Rfchard L. Tazewell estimated t his past week that there will be an enrollment of about 17,600 pupils in the county's public schools with the opening of the fall term. Of this number, about 4,876 will be in the nine high schools and the r e m a i n d e r i n e l e m e n t a r y schools. Last fall, immediately following registration, the local enrollment in the McHenry districts reached 4.335, including 1,045 in the high school. This figure will no doubt go considerably higher- this fall. While the Crystal Lake high district has the largest enrollment, this is divided among two schools last year. Crystal Lake with about 1,050 and Cary- Grove with 550, leaving McHenry high with the largest enrollment in the county. Woodstock high is expected to have an enrollment of 772, followed by Marengo with 460 and Harvard with about 450. McHenry's elementary enrollment is expected to be close to 2,000, second only to Crystal Lake, which may go as much as 500 higher. Supt. Tazewell's estimates on other local grade districts were as follows: Harrison, 460; Ringwood, 60; Johnsburg District 12, 510; and Spring Grove, 70.

The last of the plays with a iflavor of another era were those of the Rotnour Players, based at Richmond. As recently as fifteen years ago they visited McHenry through one season and gave the younger theatre-goers an insight into old-time entertainment. All of this reminiscing reminds us that the circus has remained pretty much the same -- except for becoming bigger and better -- through the years. It continues to draw large crowds, probably because animals have changed little, and so have acts of daring. There remain the delight of children for a painted clown, the thrill in watching daring aerialists, the suspense of the trainer and his wild animals, and the disbelief in seeing the bulky bear or elephant doing graceful tricks. .The circus has its limitations for change, and we are happy for this. Much as we have enjoyed it in most entertainment media, it gives us a good feel- T CL,^„ . . „, . . ing to know we have someoP, u wbh c wwo rkl- s FredA Jt . mM eyer j' t.h ing» that will not completely as the £ » to meet with representatives^ memories include an from Lakeland Park last April WATER FIGHT ^ TEAM FOURTH IN COMPETITION Council Seats New Aldern^en (Continued from Page 1) to prepare a brochure.

GOAL OF ART FAIR REALIZED THROUGH RECORD RETURNS The recent Country Art Fair in McHenry has left some happy memories, first, with the record number of art patrons who turned out to see this sixth annual show, second, with the artists of McHenry county whose work won the judges' awards, and finally, with Art Fair Treasurer Bettina Johnson of McHenry. Her final tally indicates a gross return of better than $3,000 -- $ new high for this event. ** u u ., * ., 1 After paying all expenses, in ("11" I the net will top $2,500. Thus the achieved its goal, GLADSTONE HOME SAVED AS FLAMES DESTROY BARN Since our thoughts this week are on the long ago, it might be worthy of mention that a look at our old files disclosed that rains were providing bountiful crops, but difficulty for the farmer in getting into his field, just a half century ago this summer -- 1912. K. A. F. (Continued from Page 1) week were the driver of the car, Kathleen Walsh, 18, of Chicago and Phyllis Peterson, also 18, of Chicago. The girls were driving south on the highway when their car smashed into the bridge. The Misses Walsh and Sangirardi were thrown from the debris. Miss Sangirardi was taken 1o the Peter M.

According to state police, Gozdek was travelling south behind another auto driven by Edward Gibbons, 21. of Chicago. He attempted to pass, then swerved back into his own lane when he saw an approaching car. In doing so, he hit the rear of the Gibbons vehicle, skidded to the side, left the pavement and struck a tree head-on. The Gozdek car was damaged to the extent of about $1,500, and the otner car also the purchase of a new surgicalorthopedic table for McHenry hospital. The new table is already in use. Treasurer Johnson explains that Art Fair revenues come from three main sources, tickel sales, donations and entry fees and commissions. She report.1 that ticket sales this year accounted for roughly $1,500: ionations, $400: fees and commissions. $1,100. A major factor in this year's record returns was the high number of purchase awards by local merchants, individuals and civic groups. By means of the purchase award, buyers are privileged to select, in advance of the fair opening, a work of art equal to the amount of their contribution. ng building in an effort to bring the flames under control. They remained on the <cene until about 10 o'clock Saturday night. Mrs. Gladstone was alone in ;he home when she was alerted to the fire. An unidentified woman and her young son were driving soutn on the highway about 5:30 when the 'x>y said he saw a fire in the barn. At first the woman dismissed the remark, then decided possibly the child really had noticed flames, and turned around and returned to the scene. She stopped at the home of a neighbor and found the alarm had already been turned in. The barn, described as of medium size, was built about 1949, before the Gladstones moved to the property.
