Mrs. Strauch who is 61 years old, resides with Mr. and Mrs. Paul Schreiber and their daughter Edith at 724 Hickory street, Waukegan. Mrs. Schreiber is her niece.

The friendly, corâ€" dial and cheerful spirit of the conâ€" tributors seems to inspire â€" their writings, Eligibility for the group is limâ€" ited to chronic invalids, cripples or blind men and women.

Born in Dresden, Gerâ€" many, she speaks her native lanâ€" guage fluently, as well as English. Her room is a busy place. Two work tables hold her collection of stamps, which she cuts and pastes into decorative necklaces, brooches and belts.
