Old Fashion Community Picnic • We're wishing everybody in the community^could come to the community club picnic on Sunday, May 27, at noon. AH Destroying Property It has been brought to my attention that there is a lot of destruction being done to old and empty buildings, especially the school house. I will appeal to you parents to please ask your children to stay away from the school house and 01 tier buildings. Why is it that as sooi^ as a building of any kind, private or public, is empty, there are those who must be destructive? Somewhere are we, as parents, failing to teach our children right from wrong? Lei's all have a talk with our children and tell them the penalties of law for destroying property. I'm sure we wouldn't want our own windows broken or houses broken into. Please folks, tell your children not to break windows and enter empty buildings "just for the fun of it." {Too much can happen. I'm sure it's better to talk now than be sorry later. It may involve an accident injuring someone, either themselves or others. Please! Let's bring this to a halt! in the Ringwood Community, young and old alike, are invited to the picnic. Just bring your family, service for yourselves plus a dish to pass. There will be games for the children, and a wonderful time for jrafo Please, let's make this o^lA big-good old-fashioned ionic. \Don't forget, that's Sunday, Nw-ay 27, at noon at the old school house grounds. In case of rain, it will be held in the new school. Hope to see you all there!

MENTAL HEALTH CENTER SEEKS CONTRIBUTIONS A "contribution of $18.75 will provide treatment for n disturbed child at the Mental Health, Center for McHenry County. 3514 W. Waukegan road, McHenry, it was announced this week by Stanley M. Blumberg, administrative director, of the center. This amount represents the difference between actual cost per patient treatment and the amount paid by patient. Few patients pay more than $5 and many pay nothing. The center receives funds from the State of 'Illinois for treatment of patients conditionally discharged from state institutions, but the major responsibility for the financial support of the center rests with the community it serves. In emphasizing » treatment tor children Mr. Blumberg noted that as things stand it is estimated that one out of every twelve American children bom'today will spend part of bis life in a mental institution. Much of this needless tragedy and waste could be avoided with early diagnosis and treatment. In our own community patients between 6 and 16. referred by ddctors, comprise a major part of the case load. Women's clubs, parent-teacher groups, veterans' organizations, sei-vice clubs, business men. corporations and individuals who wish to provide treatment for one or more children at the center are urged to contact Mr. Blumberg. or the Rev. George W. Martin, chairman ot the fund raising committee tor the center. The center is represented by Board Members of the community who will he glad to artswer inquiries.
