A group approach is used with the average students and the slow group in second grade use the Sullivan system in which building up accuracy is stressed. This system allows the child to work at his own pace in an individualized situation Grouping by ability is also done in the third grade. The aim of the third graders is to bring their reading vocabulary up to their speaking vocabulary and to start reading for un­ derstanding In third grade the slow group works together as a group, the middle group maintains a semi-independence and works with pictionaries and tape recorders; the higher group pupils given directions and works on their own, sometimes with film strips and cassettes Fourth grade brings a new excitement and challenge to the groups of reading students Here the reading vocabulary passes the speaking and written vocabulary, the children read their own directions, learn indexes, the meanings of abbreviations and learn to read maps Now the lower group pinpoints what 4hey have missed and work on that along with cassettes and taped stories; the middle group also works with the tapes and cassettes and the top group does individualized work and reads the text as a group Some interesting suggestions were also given to parents of pre-schoolers. The teachers requested that parents teach their children to print lower case letters, in preference to the capitals the young ones invariably learn. They also recommended the youngsters learn to use crayons, be given a variety of experiences and learn independence in their thinking But the most im portant preparation for school as Mr. Bright expressed is, "send us a loved child." Following the reading program, the regular business of the school board continued. A discussion of the resolutions to be voted on at the annual meeting of the IASB took place. George Street will represent the Harrison school board at that meeting. The board moved to support the SEDOM building proposal recommended bv the SEDOM executive board. M Miller, eighth grade teacher, requested that the eighth grade students be allowed to sponsor a maximum of four dances throughout the school year, proceeds to go for the eighth grade trip. The board approved a Christmas dance and delayed action of the proposed future dances.

MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) A Pistakee Highlands lady called Monday to find "homes for two small puppies she and a truck driver had rescued from beneath the wheels of cars in an Elm street super market parking area. Cold and frightened, she took the pups home to care for until a good home can be provided. And what about the cowardly owners who dumped the animals? If their Thanksgiving is a pleasant one, they have a kindly lady in the Highlands to thank for salving any con­ science they might have. K. A. F.

CHICAGOAN CHARGED IN SHOPLIFTING (Continued from page 1) A coincidence is the fact that Soteco recalled having seen the same woman in the Arlington Heights May's store when he was employed there last April. A similar charge was made against her by that store, the last previous arrest in a long line of petty and grand larceny charges which began in 1956. She Was released to the custody of her husband in Chicago after an attorney promised her appearance in McHenry to face charges. Mrs. Luby has been arrested thirty-one times dating back to 1956 in Chicago. Since then she has been apprehended in many suburban areas, including Lombard, DesPlaines, Skokie, Westchester and Homewood. She was reported as a shoplifting suspect in a McHenry store last July, but proof was never established. After the merchandise was found in the trunk of her car, local police officers contacted the Bureau of Criminal In­ formation and Identification in Joliet, where they learned of her record of arrests. Through a careful check, officers have been able to learn where most of the items, with an estimated value of between $1,400 and $1,500 were taken. From May's drug store, Mrs. Luby is accused of taking 4 cartons of Raleigh cigarettes, 43 cartons of Winstons, 18 cartons of Camels, 11 of Lucky Strikes, 21 of Marlboros, 15 of Kents, 25 cartons of Cools, 23 of Salems, 16 of Viceroys, 12 of L&M, 6 of Bensen and Hedges, 11 of Tareyton, 7 of Chester­ fields, 9 of Parliaments and 34 of Pall-Malls. The Ward's store manager identified as his merchandise 3 electronic flash cameras, one valued at $44.95 and two at $39.99; a Kodak instamatic camera at $14.88 and two rolls of Polaroid colorpack film; a gray and black wig, $30; a black fur hat and gray and brown fur hat. Taken from Western Tire & Auto, Crystal Lake, were a MacGregor face mask at $11.95; a baseball glove, a Wilson youth league football; an auto football pump; start-a- car booster cables; and 8 track stereo tape. Mrs. Luby will have her case heard in Branch I court, Woodstock. Tickets And Injuries Result From Accidents A ticket for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident was issued to John C.

USD A Amends Regulations On Poultry Additives Changes in federal regulations concerning the use of basting additives in poultry, based on comments received recently by the U.S. Depart­ ment of Agriculture, will become effective Feb. 17. The amended regulations specify that solutions and edible fats added for basting and similar purposes to ready- to-cook poultry products may increase the weight of the processed product by ap­ proximately 3 percent of the weight of the washed and chilled raw product complying with other federal poultry regulations. The new regulation provides for minor deviation from the 3-percent limit to allow for variabilities in ^Mnjection and measuring equipment. A -'conspicuous, legible and descriptive name" must now appear on the label of an^ poultry product containing a basting or similar additive. The revised regulations also detail the way solution ingredients must be listed on the label. Additives used for basting and similar purposes will have to be approved by USDA's Consumer and Marketing Service, and so must the processing plant's product control procedures. To gain this approval, the producer must control the amount of solution to comply with the new limit, provide for proper disposition of product not in compliance unless it is reprocessed, and set up a control system which can be monitored by USDA in­ spectors. He must also see that his product complies with the labeling used for its iden­ tification. C&MS officials explained that the regulation changes stemmed from its review of the thirty-seven comments it received after requesting public comments on poultry additives last year. An Oct. 8. 1970, Federal Register notice invited interested persons to comment before Nov. 9, 1970, on the scope of any formal proposal which might be issued. When USDA received requests for additional com­ ment time, the period for public comments was extended until Jan. 11,.1971. CROPS SOLD. . . MONEY'S I N . . . KEEP IT HERE!
