Marian Enrollment Up; Other Schools Show Loss Catholic schools in McHenry county have decreased in enrollment by 1 percent in the current yeir, even though Marian Central Catholic school increased in enrollment for the third consecutive year. Figures released recently by the McHenry county board of Catholic education show that the seven Catholic elementary schools in the county dipped from 2,222 pupils in 1974-75 to 2,157 in 1975-76. Marian Central, however, climbed from 670 students to 704, a 5 percent increase. The total student population of 2,861 is thirty-one fewer than a year ago. In releasing the statistics, Father James Moses, superintendent, commented, "We have watched the pattern of small decreases at the elementary level for a couple of years. But until this year, Marian's increase over­ shadowed the decreases at the elementary level. Another problem is unequal distribution of applicants. Some of our schools have a waiting list in one grade and empty seats in another." Father Moses also presented to the board's Schools com­ mission an analysis of staff members. There are thirty religious (priests or sisters) teachers and ninety-six lay teachers for a total of 126. Of these, thirty-five posses^ Master's degrees or beyond, eighty-two hold Bachelor's degrees, and eleven are working toward a first degree Father Moses commented, "Since the adoption of the policy to hire only certified teachers, our staff quality has gone up steadily. The few non- degreed teachers have several years experience since they were in the system prior to the personnel policy of 1969, and many are close to achieving the Bachelor's degree.

After considering 9000 re­ sponses to its request for com­ ments,. the Federal Trade Commission has proposed re­ visions in its regulations re­ quiring care labeling of wear­ ing apparel. Major proposed revisions would: . . .expand the rule's cover­ age to include, among other things, household furnishings and leather and suede wear­ ing apparel; . . .require that labels con­ tain various disclosures de­ signed to give the consumer clearer and more complete care instructions; . . .and provide a uniform glossary of terms used in care instructions. As an example of more complete care instructions, washing instructions would have to include water temper­ ature and drying methods as well as bleaching and iron­ ing methods, where needed. The warning, "Do Not Bleach," is contained in many fabric labels. For these items, a bleach substitute, like Bora- teem Plus, has been found to be effective in removing stub­ born soil and stains without harming bright colors or fab­ ric finishes.

TIME-SAVING TALES Conserving time is a major concern of today's busy homemakers. One way to keep house cleaning simple is to do little jobs more often! Food spills on stove and counter tops, for example, can be cleaned more simply if you grab a sponge and wipe them right away. Once a spill has hardened, it often takes real muscle to get rid of it. Baked-on foods and dirty cooking utensils, when soaked immediately, also become a cinch to clean up later. An easy way to keep your carpet looking great all the time is to clean it two or three times a year. This pre­ vents grease from the air and tracked-in dirt from dulling the colors. Finally, don't accumulate things around the house. Get rid of old magazines and newspapers and store those items you rarely use. . Follow these easy, time- saving suggestions and you'll have less worry about house cleaning and a lot more time for fun!
