Physicians in these hospitals have learned that a simple friendly chat with someone from the outside often will do wonders in halping mental patients along the road to recovery. This experimental program in these four centers is being developed by the state board of welfare commissioners, an advisory citizens' group named by Governor Adlai E. Stevenson and' serving without pay. held Monday evening of this week. The writer speaks for the fourteen members who attended in asking those who have not been active in the organization to give some thought to the problems at- hand and the cooperation necessary. "The McHenry Businessmen's Association had its regular meeting Monday night, October 22nd. During the course of this meeting many important problems wwe discussed, many excellent suggestions for the improvement Of McHenry were made, and a very serious discussion of the dope traffic rumor and minor drinking resulted. 'Out of the ninety-one P*i«^ members there were a total of fourteen present, not Anywhere 'near a quorum. These fourteen hardworking and loyal businessmen had to consider such problems as the feasibility of combining a firemen's carnival with the annual Marine Day program, or an attempt to form S. co-ordinated carnival involving the Businessmen's association, Firemen's carnival, V. F. W. and American Legion; the junior Athletic prom which urgently needs workers and help; the plans for the Hallowe'en movie party at the high school, which also involved S cSll for volunteers to assist; the necessity of electing a new Vice President to take the place of the lute Roy Kent; the businessmen's participation in the School Superintendent's clothing collection crusade; Christmas street decorations, including the advisability of selecting a new type of display material; the cost, location, and fund raising problem of new street lights for McHenry, the 'teen age canteen, the skating rink; and, most important, the problem of minors insofar as the drug and liquor problems are concerned. "It is our hope that any businessman who reads this letter and could have attended the meeting last Monday will be brought to realize that it is an imposition and ah impossibility for fourteen persons to make any lasting or binding decision for all of the businessmen of this community. The complete indifference and lack of interest on the part of the businessmen must have some basis. It is the sincere hope of the officers of the association that those of you who do not take an, active part will make known to them In what way changes can be made to assure your attendance at meetings. Criticism, in any form, should result in corrections, and you may be assured that your officers will do everything in their DEFE*St JOB Lient. Col. Donald F\ Armstrong, of Swedesboro, H- J., has Just been assigned as ground observer power to obtain your help--the corps coordinator for Illinois, The few cannot carry the burden of colonel will make his headquarters at the state civil deffense office In Chicago, and will advise Maj. Lenox R. Lohr, state director of the many Indefinitely. It your reason for non-attendance Is that of social pleasure or lack of effort, please give a moment's thought to how you would feel if ho one did anything about street decorations, 'teen age canteens, Hallowe'en entertainment, junior athletics, street lights and snow removal. The World today, whether it be the McHenry community or groups of Nations, is dependent upon cooperative effort. Each one muBt do his part and we hope the next meeting will be proof of your willingness to share the load." goiclde Spet O Shima, island due soutfe- of Yokohoma, is known in Japan ai "suicide island."
