MARGARET FOR KIN A funeral Mass will be read at St. Gabriel's church, Chi­ cago, on Saturday, July »12, for Margaret Forkin, 51, who pass­ ed away July 9 in Chicago. Survivors include her hus­ band, Thomas, three children, a sister, Mrs. Mary Frett of McHenry, and two brothers. Interment will be in St. Mary's cemetery, Evergreen Park. • MCHENRY'S, FIRST DEATH McHenry's first deati. oc^ cur red in 1836 when a settler named William -Herrick ac­ cidentally shot himself. His horse had been crossing the ice on the Fox River when it fell through, pitching Herridponto his gun. The body was buried on the river bank. When a group in the late 1800's were digging a cellar, they unearthed Her- rick's remains. He was then transferred to the McHenry vil­ lage cemetery. - *v Illinois State Bar Association Many Husbands, Wives Separate Without Benefit Of Court Order Voluntary agreements appear to be the rule among those hus­ bands and wives who agree to live apart without getting a di­ vorce, according to the Illinois State Bar Association. The ISBA said that in one re­ cent month, the state's busiest family court issued only six separate maintenance decrees «' compared to 1,729 divorce de­ crees--or only one separate maintenance decree for every 300 divorces. This does not meanthatprac­ tically all couples who decide to call it quits get a divorce. Rather, the ISBA said, it in­ dicates that only a few hus­ bands and wives who choose to stay married but live apart seek to put their agreement on a formal, court-ordered bas­ is. People who balk at going to court to obtain a separate main­ tenance decree may wish to avoid airing their differences in public or have conscientious objections to either divorce or separation, or they may hope for a reconciliation after a "trial" separation, among other reasons, the ISBA stated. However, the ISBA added, there are certain advantages to obtaining a formal decree for separate maintenance, if one spouse is dependent upon the other or may become dependent. It cites the case of a wife who intended to support herself but became ill. Ultimately, she had to file suit for separate main­ tenance in order to force her husband to help pay doctor and medical bills. The procedure for filing a suit for separate maintenance is the same as a divorce suit. Or­ dinarily, such a suit if filed where the spouse who is being sued (the defendant) resfdes. In fixing the amount of support payments, the court will con­ sider the standard of living when the couple were together and other factors. Also, the court may grant temporary sup­ port to the plaintiff and may require the defendant to pay the plaintiff's attorney's fees. As in the case of divorce, the court has jurisdiction over any minor children and may a- ward custody to either parent or to a third party if the court feels that is in the best in- irest of the children.

Do you think it is the stodgy teacher or the fascin­ ating lecturer who disagrees with Norman? Since only al 25 per cent of professors are really superb teachers, it is usually lite 75 per cent who are scared about letting students rate them! By - George W. Crane, Ph.D., M.D. CASE K-549: Norman J., aged 20, is a university senior. "Dr. Crane," he began, "my first year professor of psychol­ ogy used your college textbook, 'Psychology Applied.' "The students all liked its practical, down-to-earth slant. "But some of our later cour­ ses have been dry and very far removed from our everyday in­ terests. "And our teachers have of­ ten been poor speakers. They even resent innocent questions from the class and will not tol­ erate any disagreement. "One of my profs this term almost had a stroke of apo­ plexy when I suggested using your 'Test for Good Teacher,' from the appendix of your text­ book. "I had thought it would be stimulating for the faculty to read the unsigned ratings given them by their college students. "But only one psych prof out of 7 with whom I have discussed the idea is favorable to letting us students rate them! "What are the profs afraid of? "Aren't we students the 'con­ sumers' of their brand of teach­ ing and isn't it now regarded as a good idea, even in the bus­ iness world, to take consumer polls?" SCARED PROFS Good teachers are not likely to be afraid of letting their students rate them. " But not over 25 per cent of faculty members can be clas­ sified as "good." So it is the 75 per cent of mediocre and stodgy teachers suit is pending, the court should be advised so that it may sus­ pend the proceedings. Other­ wise, the reconciliation could be considered as a condonation of any prior misconduct of the spouse being sued, and the suit for separate maintenance would be jeopardized if the reconcil­ iation didn't work out.

Yet college men and women are adults in mental growth and ve had far more education th2|n the average American who ays "rates" presidential candidates via the crucial bal­ lot box test in November. Such students have also lis­ tened to dozens of good orators, so why can't they do at least a reasonable job of rating a teacher's public speaking skill? And why can't they make very accurate reports on whether teachers permit cheating on ex­ ams? Students also quickly dis­ cover if a prof is unduly sus­ ceptible to the mini-sldrted rows of coeds on the front row! Aren't they able to decide if a prof has missionary en­ thusiasm for his course? Can't they tell if he goes out of his way to make his class­ room lectures not merely in­ teresting but even fascinating? When I was teacfiiffeat North­ western and George Washing­ ton Universities, I often had "plants" in the audience just to find out how the pupils re­ acted to my lectures and many class demonstrations. To make my courses "fas­ cinating," I concocted 77 brief classroom demonstrations of not over 5-minute duration to illustrate the topic of each day's lecture. And my classes got so large that I had to be given the law school auditorium at Northwes­ tern to hold them. College students are mature enough to know whether they are bored with a stuffed shirt professor or are delighted with practical data to solve the prob­ lems in, real life situations. Furthermore, I have found that many students who are given "A" grades still will rank that professor low, for they can tell if the prof is a good teacher or merely hand­ ing out "A" marks to bribe favor with social pace-setters and smart "apple polishers." it is the second-rate teacher, craving undisturbed lifetime "tenure" despite his mediocre oratory, who is scared of be­ ing rated. Good teachers actually rel­ ish getting the reports of stu­ dents so they can improve their classroom techiques! So send for my "Test, for Good Teachers," enclosing a long stamped, return envelope, plus 20 cents.

Inc AyWtof* /892 you will happily slip behind the wfceel of your automobile this year and indulge in that most popular of Great Out­ doors activities in America: touring by car. „ «. About 100 million Ameri­ cans, approximately half the population of the country, are expected ^to do so. They will break all previous records of driving for recreation, pleas­ ure and vacations by covering more than 160 billion miles and spending more than 25 billi&n dollars. How much fun they ha and'how smoothly their trip! go. depends in large measur on the extent to which the; employ the up-to-date facili­ ties, services and information now available to the motoring public. Help for Motorists "If you know where you want to go and how to get there, have paved your way with reservations and readied your car for the journey, you will have a joyful, rewarding experience," says one authori­ ty. "Neglect these points and you stand a good chance of ruining your trip." Helping motorists to speiid his vacation entirely on the road. Questions that be­ come^ common to all tourists and vacationists are what to see, where to eat, and where to sleep? Here, a comprehensive pub­ lication like the Mobil Travel Guide becomes essential, much as the celebrated Guide Mich- elin of France has become in­ dispensable to vacationers in France. • What to See and Do The Mobil Guide is the &nly American guide book series that rates more than 20,000 accommodations and restau- annual inspections. Seven vol­ umes cover the 48 continental states and the District of Co­ lumbia. They rate and offer latest information on hotels, motels, resorts, restaurants and cafeterias. What can you see and do in one of the cities along your way or at your destination? The Guide will provide travel­ ers with information on some 4,088 cities about local history, points of cultural interest, hunting, Ashing and other sports facilities, industrial tours, auto and walking tours - - ^ state and national parks. Founding date, altitude and population also are given. Over f ,800 suggestions of places to see and things to do are noted. Accommodations and res­ taurants are rated by a system of one to five stars, and prices are included so that the trav­ eler can adjust his schedule to his purse. Being aware of the many ex­ cellent aids to motoring In the Great Outdoors that are avail­ able, and taking advantage of them, will greatly heighten the pleasure to be derived from that next vacation tour. that outing on wheels, guiding ' them and making them wel­ come and comfortable is, of course, big business, as witness that $25 billion figure. Fyr ex­ ample, efforts put forth to that end by one company Mobil Oil Corporation -- are impres­ sive. It is not only because of the 25,000 Mobil service stations throughout the country that provide the vacationist with the gasoline, oil and technical assistance necessary to keep his car rolling and ready for the journey but beyond that, because of a further move of the company in the area of car dependability, actual trip planning and touring infor­ mation. Keep Up to Date Planning the trip requires up-to-date maps and travel information. More than 12,- 000,000 maps are distributed annually by the Mobil Travel Services that replies to more than 100,000 requests from mo­ torists sallying forth into the Great Outdoors with the plot­ ting of their journey. Experts say that you should be certain your map is up- to-date because some 10,000 changes are made annually. If you want to make real good touring and enjoy it, an advance study of the trip should be made to prepare an itinerary, compute the mile­ age between the points where, you want to go and determine where to stop for the night. The travel service will help you in this planning and even ad­ vise on the shortest, or fastest, or more scenic road. Even those who prefer to follow their fantasy and travel leisurely with no rigid itiner­ ary planned in advance must follow maps for the area they want to visit. PARAQUAT AND felQUAT DANGEROUS Paraquat and diquat have been cleared for use on some crops. Duquat is also used as an aq­ uatic weed killer in farm ponds. Both paraquat and diquat trig­ ger an unknown, irreversible lung deterioration. Once this plan action starts, death appears al­ most certain. Breathing the mist is believed to be more serious than low-level inges­ tion. All who work with para­ quat and diquat should handle the material with care, using respirators, goggles and other protective equipment. It is alwas imperative that the Instructions on pesticide labels be read and followed. DANGER TO JAPANESE YEWS Your most prized landscap­ ing possession, the Japanese Yews, are now being threat­ ened by the black vine weevil. The damage is due to the feed­ ing of the larvae on the roots of the plant. Infested plants Bhow browning and dying. Re­ moval of dead plants reveals roots eaten by white legless grubs. These grubs feed from late summer until late spring when they become adults. The adult is a black snout beetle. It is seldom seen be­ cause it hides during the light hours and feeds ly. The notches left by feeding on the margin of the needles on the lower put o( the plant are usually the only clue that the pests are present until se­ vere damage results. Control of the black vine wee­ vil is easy through properly timed sprays. Apply dieldrin spray, one tablespoon per gallon of water, in three weekly ap­ plications - starting the third week of June. Thoroughly wet the plant and the ground be­ neath it.

There's also plenty of subsoil moisture to keep the crop de­ veloping. If your preplant application was on the low side, consider an early sidedressing with 50 to 100 pounds of nitrogen. Early sidedressing is sug­ gested for these reasons: -- You can be sure that more rains and wet soil will not keep you from sides dressing later. -- You avoid root pruning. This is especially important if you have 30-inch rows. -- You are less likely to cause stalk rot since the or­ ganisms invade through bro­ ken roots. -- Finally, you can select the time when the soil is in the best condition to retain the nitrogen and avoid compaction. Later, there may be more com­ petition for sidedressing equip­ ment and ff nitrogen fertilixer. & CHECK DOGS FOR TICKS Dog ticks, often called wood ticks, can lower your dog's vi­ tality and spoil his disposition. You should check your doctor ticks every week. You'll find them around the dog's neck, in and around his ears, under his and between his toes. treat a tick-infested dog, dust the animal with a four per­ cent malathion dust or a five percent Sevin dust. Rub the dust tlporoughly through the dog's hidr, especially on his back and neck. Before using any pesticife, reed the label carefully. Fur­ ther information on Insects can be secured in Circular 900, "Insect Control For the Home­ owner," from your county Ex­ tension adviser. HOGS AND HOT WEATHER If your hogs don't get enough water, you* 11 get lower feed con­ sumption, slow growth and less feed efficiency. In hot weather, a shortage of water may cause death from overheating. It pays to have at least one drinking space for every 25 head. SWINE PRODUCTION SYSTEMS If you're planning a swine production system, consider how many farrowings you'll have each year. You should plan at least four farrowings each year to make the best use of buildings and equipment in a confinement system. If you're planning fewer farrowings per year, consider using a portable field production system. " PROFESSIONAL" PIG FEEDERS Labor problems and the at­ tractiveness of grain forming may well bring about develop­ ment of " professional" pig feeders in Illinois, ssys G.R. Carlisle, Extension livestock specialist. Carlisle predicts the new "professional" will get out of farrowing sows but will be in the market for high-quality feeder pigs as he hedges his bet by feeding some of the corn he raises. Nearly half of the House of Burgesses (Virginia) in 1665 was composed of former in­ dentured servants--poor people who sold several years of their time to pay for tranpsortation to America.
