Noyes & Company, a partnership organized in 1908; members of the New York Stock Exchange, Chicago Board of Trade, and other leading Exchanges, on March 27, 1968 experienced the loss of Mr. David L. Heath, Manager of the Elgin office. "Lew" Heath came to Elgin in 1937 to engage in the investment business. Not too many years followed before he recognized the potential in Kane and surrounding counties, and formed his own company. He had been associated with David A. Noyes since 1951. To the thousands of people, banks and corporations, whom he had the pleasure of serving while associated with us, we want to say: Thank you, indeed, for having contributed in no small way tp the success of our Elgin office. We sincerely hope that this friendship moy be kept alive through one of our other representatives. Our firm headed by Paul E. Murin and seven other octively-working partners, has since its inception in 1908, operated " as a team " and not as a corporate body. We now have four fully-equipped and successfully-operating offices guided by "the team" -- in Elgin: Fred Dressel, Eldon Gieske, Dan Sullivan, Roy Gundersen and "Chuck" Hurych. Mr. Daniel G. Sullivan who recently became associated with the Elgin office, had for the past six years been in charge of our Statistical and Analytical departments in the Chicage office. He brings to this community a young, energetic and experienced personality, to supplement our present staff. When you have an investment need think of and call on "The Team," at • DAVID A.

Progress Though technology did not advance rapidly in the middle ages, substantial progress was made.

FIELD TRIPS PLANNED BY BIRD WATCHERS „ Two trips are in prospect next week for members of the McHenry county chapter of Illinois Audubon society. They will not have the same destination. Previous mid-week hikes have been previews of what bird watchers saw,on the following Saturdays, but this time the Wednesday people have chosen a different route. On May 8, the birders will walk in Veterans Acres, Crystal Lake'§ 150-acre park. Theywill meet at 8:45 a.m. in the upper parking lot where three classes of Mrs. R.F. Christen- • „sen's sixth grade pupils from Coventry school, Crystal Lake, will also assemble. There, Mrs. Kenneth Fiske, Jr., of Woodstock, past president of the McHenry County Bird club, will give some pointers on bird identification. They will then divide into three groups of students and bird club members to take the hike. Mrs. Fred Stout, 779 Broadway, Crystal Lake, will have charge and may be called for information. On May 11, club members will meet at 8:45 a.m. on the Mass property, called Westwood Lake Estates, west of Woodstock (between Rte. 14 bypass and Westwood school). Specific instructions are in the May newsletter mailed to each member. The Misses Leta and Alice Clark of Woodstock are the committee for this outing, which may draw an unusually large number of hikers because the spring warblers are back and delightful to see. The April trip to Greenwood was a pleasure for twenty-six members and guests who spotted thirty-seven varieties of birds. Two new members, Miss Cheryl Nickles of Woodstock (whose membership was a birthday gift from her aunts, the Clark sisters) and Mrs. David Gay of Wonder Lake, were cordially welcomed as were also Woodstock member, Mrs. Everett Thomas's father, Peter F. Freund of Johns burg, and Mrs. Ruth Cunny of Crystal Lake. President Maurice Watson conducted a short business meeting at which the Clarks said they had sent to the Illinois State Museum eighty-seven nesting cards which included report of sixty bluebird fledglings seen on the McHenry county club's Bluebird Trail, most of them by Carl Sands of Cary. Directions for bird house construction were distributed to those wishing them. It was told that the George Bakers of Belvidere, club members had been to Wisconsin twice to see whistling swans, and had been rewarded with a view of 200. Everett Thomas agreed to secure supplies such as bird books and index tabs. Members wishing to order may notify him. Refreshments of sweet rolls and coffee provided by Mr. and Mrs. Russell Switzer of McHenry, Mr. and Mrs. Maurice Watson of Crystal Lake, and Mrs. Ardin Frisbie of Greenwood, were served at noon on the Frisbie lawn, where the guests loved being surrounded by crocuses, bloodroot, hspaticas, scilia, blue chinodoxia and jonquils as they sat near a magnolia tree just coming into bloom. The Frisbies' collection of colorful rocks picked on their travels also drew admiring comments. When "clean up" time came, Mrs. Paul Wilcox of Woodstock gathered the styrofoam ciqjs to take to the county home at Hartland, where she works with the Red Cross Gray Ladies every Thursday. "You'd be surprised at what beautiful flowers the ladies of the home will make from these," she declared. "We're always looking for handicraft materials." The Sick List One out of every 7 Americans was hospitalized in 1964, compared to one out of 9 persons 10 years earlier, says the Health Insurance Institute. * * * It's Ancient Linoleum, the first of the . c o m p o s i t i o n f l o o r s , is over 100 years old.

" People of my generation have yet to learn 'equality under the law" and one thing we will try at Notre Dame, effective now, is to encourage members ofthe minority groups to get their* legal education at Notre jJame." He said for the public generally to understand how to make a lawful society an actuality, it is necessary to know the problems. "We're changing our curriculum at Notre Dame - we are starting a civil rights and civil liberties course next semester. We have other changes planned." During the business meeting one director, William M. Carroll, Jr., retired. George Costello( was elected to replace him. Re-elected were Costello and Conerty. Officers were reelected with Leo Powers, Crystal Lake, president; John Orso, Crystal Lake, vice-president; and Joe Conerty, secretary - treasurer. In accepting the award as the "Man of the Year" Conerty recalled the first winner was William Desmond, Woodstock former postmaster and civic leader. He said the club was started in 1959 and had its first meeting in 1960. . SLEEP LIKE A LOG? Sleep is one of the strangest things we know, or don't know about. Medical science hasn't found out how much we need, whether it's possible to get too much, too little, the wrong kind or even what causes sleep-walking. But, they are all of one opinion, no one sleeps like a log. Even in the quietest possible slumber, the average person will change position from 25 to 50 times each night. Sleep although not understood by medical science is universally recognized as a great healer, both in physical and mental illness. Doctors prescribe a nap in the afternoon for many people suffering from heart ailments and other strength sapping illness.
