School Board
By George Adamn
Congress has reduced the School Lunch fund budget again this year and in reviewing the balance available in the Illinois fund, it is necessary that the March lunch claims be paid on a percentage basis, with no funds left for April or May, UNLESS additional funds are made available. According to present figures it appears that the March Type A plate subsidy will he in the neighborhood of two or three cents. We regret this. Write your Congressmen, they can help correct this shortage. Special Milk Proggram 	
At this time it appears that the Special Milk claims will tK> paid for the balance of this year at a 10 per cent reduction. This reduc¬ tion became effective with the F^ebruaIy claims due to action taken by the United States Bur¬ eau of Budgets."
We will try to keep the peo¬ ple informed as to the price of milk in  the  1966-67  school  year.
Please register all new kinder¬ garten or other students for the new school year at the High school office. The school Board has to know how many there are so they can order books and sup¬ plies for the least cost.

Rer. Perkins Accepts Call From Kansas
Rev. Lawrence J. Perldns an- nounced last Sunday. Juae B5, that he has accepted n call from the Pilgrim Congregational Church, » United Church of Christ, in Wi¬ chita, Kansa.s, to serve as its Pastor and Administrator, effec¬ tive September 1, ^
In a letter to the concregaticn Pastor Perkins stated that several reasons compelled him with some fellKtan^e fto accept 'this call. They are:
1. Family consideration. With children approaching college age he needed to locate in a college community and in a large enough church to support the increased financial needs of his children's college years.
2. The church in Hup''''v needs to be free for growth ir " "' and different directions tha- ^n can provide. To stay longer i- ti> Bim- ply postpone the needed enlarge¬ ment of commitment aqd growth. ' 3. The need for \i^pr Borrk* is a real one and necebSary for lilg own sense of achievement and ac- . Mttpliehmant.  <—"¦¦. -    -
Pastor Perkins went on to say: "therefore, despite the^oains that come with any se^i^t^ion. for your 9»ed and mine, 1 Must leave you. This church and t'-if '.nany fine people I have k'in<vn ]iore will always be a pari '^'' my life and an even larger pav nf the lives of my children (t'^re" nf whom were confirmed herel). To¬ gether we have served God as best we could and separate—He will yet be our God."
Pastor Perkins and hia family came to serve the Ist Con^ega- tional Church in Htmtiey on Sept. 1. 1960. He is the iirst full- time ordained minister to seive longer than one year In HunUey for the past 80 years. (In 1917 a full-time ordained minister did sei-ve in the Huntley ehurch for one year). Rev. Perkins stated that during the 19th century reg¬ ular full-time ordained ministers did serve this church for periods of two years.
