Flower enthfuiaste find a camera a happy addition to their notebook* for record keeping; Notes With Your Camera Solneone ^nce said, "There are few phas^ tf human activity in which a caiftera cannot serve as a friendly companion--and the best of all possible notebooks." Tfkiay , we're suggesting you put youf ^ainera to use to record your special' interests. Let's say you have an entry in a dog, horse, or livestock show^or maybe it's a model competing in the model aircraft meet--or perhaps you're off on a garden tour or at a business convention. Only with a camera in hand can you really bring home a complete account of the events you attend. If you collect china or glass, mineral specimens, old guns, coins, or almost any other type of small object, your camera with a close-up lens can provide pictures to exchange with fellow collectors. Should your special collector's items be documents, your camera will be invaluable as a means Of copying. 'With a facsimile record of each item, the original, need not be marred by handling. As a student of nature, you'll appreciate color film and a closeup attachment for picturing specimens in their natural habitat before you bring them home, your hobby is model aircraft, you'll find; your camera: a. real help in recording each step in construction. And if you're. still in school, snapshots can illustrate term papers.and laboratory projects-- as well as record your student activities and associations in a personal "yearbook" of your own. In family projects, such as buildinjg a new home, a day-byday picture record is desirable, too--apd sometimes can settle disputes about any phase of the construction. Remodeling and landscaping operations also merit the full "before and after" picture treatment. In business as Well as leisuretime activities, a camera can perform worthwhile services for you. Many businessmen have found pictures to be a quick, handy system of note-taking. A few clicks of the shutter--and they have a permanent memorandum of methods of doing a particular operation, business ideas, window displays, store signs, and the like. Today, a great number of artists like to carry cameras to supplement their sketchbooks; hunters and explorers do as much shootr ing with film as they do with firearms. --John Van Guilder McHenry Hospital Patients at the McHenry hospital this past week included Josephine Wendt, Catherine Rezczowski and Wilma Schroeder of Ringwood; Emily Relit? of Ingleside; Beorge Hutchinson, Helen Farfell, Regina Audette, Don Deedon, Joseph Koenig, Howard Hachmeister, James Lennon, Sr. Raymond Baird and Phillip Bartmann of McHenry; Michael Holmes and Emilie Ohrwall of Crystal Lake; Edith Peterson of -Mundeiein; Martin Ward of Chicago; Irene Samen of Lilynioor; Marianne Lyof Cary and Elinor Johnson of Woodstock.

Similar circumstances may prevent your collecting if you delay. * * * YOUNG PEOPLE'S CORNER "Many of the habits that you art starting to form now, both good and bad, will last the rest of your life... One of the best habits to start now, is to be careful with your money. Whether you have a little money or a lot does not matter. What counts is how you use the money you do have. Having a savings plan does not mean being stingy or selfish. It means forming a habit of saving, managing on a budget, saving toward something you want or may need in the future." These are not tlie words of anyone at our bank, though we thoroughly agree with them. They are the words of the Handbook for Boys, official publication of the 3oy Scouts of America. The only aim of the BSA is to help boys become happy, self-reliant good citizens. We think it's a splendid aim; and we, too, like to help. We welcome every chance to assist you boys of our community (girls as well, of course) in developing the habits of thrift that can meanr so' much to you, now and all through life.
