Another scene portrays the lavish terrace of Mrs. McGlone's Denver mansion -- another the ritzy Continental atmosphere of the Monte Carlo casino -- and to contrast the humble hand made cabin Johnny builds for Molly before he asks her to marry him.

Richard L. Tazewell, McHenry county superintendent of schools, in cooperation with the McHenry County Teacher's Institute, forum for Friday's workshop-discussion program. A coffee hour before the 9:15 a.m. session will open activities at the Woodstock Community high school, site for the all-day session. Music will be furnished by the McHenry high school band. Top - notch speakers will bring out a big crowd, Tazewell figures, and parochial school teachers also are invited to attend all or any part of the program. Dr. Robert Kazmayer, called by many educational and industrial leaders one of the nation's most outstanding speakers, will talk at the afternoon session. His topic: "America's Place in a Changing World." George Bereday, professor of comparative education at Columbia University, will occupy the rostrum during the morning session. He will discuss selective education versus education for all. McHenry county^s steac\y growth will mean more industries, recreational facilities, homes -- and children. So schools must be prepared to handle this influx of students and teachers want to be totally prepared to meet the challenge of the greater need for improving educational standards now confronting them, Tazewell said. During the day two important guests will be present to help prospective teachers and present teachers. Robert L. Brissenden, secretary of^,lhg state teacher's certification board, will be at the meeting. So will Aubrey Holmes, executive director of the Illinois State Teachers' Retirement System. The County Teachers' Association plans its annual meeting during the day. Edward Hall, assistant county superintendent of schools, is working with the Association committee to map the day's program. Eugene Maxwell, Woodstock, is Association president. Opportunities in the teaching profession are big, Tazewell said today. A definite need for primary teachers is evident in the state. English teachers and any teacher able to teach foreign languages are welcome. Foreign language teaching is tending toward the grade school level, he observed. Greatest help is needed to work with students who need speech correction or are mentally handicapped, physically handicapped or hard-of-hearing. McHenry county has a total of 26 school districts. Smallest is one two-room school. They vary in size, a fevr-farge ones in the city with four or five schools within a district. The schools have a total of 13,572 grade school and 5,535 high school students. Biggest enrollment attends Crystal Lake elementary school -- 2,- 735 students. THIRTEEN-STAR 4 -3 i FLAG GIVEN TO HISTORICAL GROUP The McHenry County Historical society has been ?;iven a thirtcen- star flag but because it is machine-made, it is known not to date back to the early colojnial period.

This was a largo'national organiza!ion.in„iho days following the Civil War ;<m\ there was an active chapter in McHenry county. It was an auxiliary to the GAR veterans' group. Can anyone give information as to when the county chapter was formed an.I who wore its leaders? Was the flag made for the occasion of ilic unveiiing of the Soldiers' Monument in Woodstock city square? Were any programs published of the event? Pictures taken?

The society hopes to have all certificates made out and delivered wiihin a Jew days of the new order being filed.
