CHURCH SERVICE Spiritual baptism will be emphasized at all Christian Science churches, including McHenry, this Sunday. "Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God" (Matt. 5) is the Golden Text which will begin the Bible Lesson on "Sacrament." TRAINING CENTER FOR RETARDED TO BEGIN NEW YEAR Its fourth year of training center operation begins in September for the McHenry County Association for Retarded Children with a new slate of officers, headed by Russell Switzer, McHenry, as president, and with increased support from various civic organizations in the county. Assisting Switzer on .the board will be Mrs. Edward Blakslee, Crystal Lake, vicepresident; Mrs. Elmo Lossman, McHenry, recordng secretary; Edward (Bud) Hansen, Cary, corresponding secretary; and Jim Robinson, Woncjer Lake, treasurer. Regular -meetings are held the third Tuesday of each month, except July and August, and parents of retarded Children and all interested persons are invited. Ending the third year with the May annual report, Mrs. Carole Mitterling, director Of the training center, listed monthly attendance rolls of from six to eight children and cited "no transportation" as the greatest factor in keeping enrollment down. She reported that several "children were forced to drop out and others who would come were unable because transportation could not be arranged. Mrs. Maurice Kretzschmer, Harvard, assisted by volunteers, teaches the school for retarded chldren between 6 and 21 years of age, which is at present conducted in a church basement in Wonder Lake. Eventually the association hopes to have its own station wagon and its own bulding, including training school, sheltered workshop and social center. The future might also see inclusion of the emotionally and physically handicapped as well as the mentally retarded, since this combination seems to offer benefits to individuals and community alike. A notable example was described to the membership at a recent meeting by Robert Blazier, principal of South Junior high school, Crystal Lake, who was co-founder of the successful E]lm City community center in Jacksonville, 111. Blazier's program was undertaken to aid emotionally handicapped people who were well enough to be released from mental hospitals if there was any purpose for them to assume and any place for them to go. It was experimentally expanded to take in physical and mental handicaps a"s a pilot program for the State of Illinois's department of rehabilitation, sinc^it has been found that people with one kind of handicap can often make a significant contribution to those with other handicaps. Besides a jtraining school for teaching crafts and skills, the Elm City Center had a shelter workshop for piecework by contract from local manufacturers and also secured outside jobs, such as painting and dishwashing, that could be done by individuals under supervision. The McHenry county group hopes to build toward such meaningful and effective service and expects this next year, with enthusiastic new members and devoted old members, to count as an important one.

Qmatit-Quts 3b/t OA/omen' by Maggie Well, here we are, right in the middle of summer--which means every time you open the door, flies come in. But you can CONTROL FLIES so they won't be as big a problem Naturally, you should have screens on all windows and doors (it's better if they open outward). Cut the grass regularly, but don't let the cuttings accumulate in big piles. Food shouldn't' be left exposed so flies can get at it. Get rid of overripe foods and any that are starting to decay as Soon as you can. Drain all your garbage and wrap it before putting it in the garbage can. Since they're a common breeding place for flies, be sure your garbage can is rustproof, kept t'eart, and set up on a rock or stand. Don't let it spill over; put just enough in that you can keep container tightly covered. If you have pets, clean them and their shelters often. When the kids get CHEWING GUM ON CLOTHING, it's no longer hopeless! Remove it by soaking gummy area in white i of egg--loosens gum to it can be scraped off-. Add new life to tired-looking things by COLOR-DYKING I YOUR WASHING MACIUN, Curtains, - linens, bedspreadp, sweaters . . . even llnger'16* |s dye-able if washable. To start, select a bright new color. Dissolve dye per package instruo tions thru cloth or old nylon. Fill washer with hottest water (wairm for some fabrics). Mix in solution. Now pop in ybtir things, wet and unfolded. Run thru hot "wash" cycle, then cool water "rinse." Hang up, or use dryer, until damp. Press carefully. Clean washer ^yith detergent and % cup bleach thru complete wash cycle. Let's make nasty chores fun! Use a penny SUCKER AS TONGUE DEPRESSOR to check your child's sore throat-- not so scary, and besides, it tastes good. LITTLE SUMMER FOOD TIPS: Try guest-pleaser canapes made, of salami, bologna, hard or spread cheese, placed between thin slices of cucumber. Or how about a quickycool dessert of cereal, a scoop of ice cream, all topped with chocolate syrup! (Watch for Maggie every week!)
