The annual Easter Seals ap­ peal is the major method used to raise funds to support the physical therapy and speech therapy services provided by the organization, located on Washington street in Woodsock. "Almost all the money that finances the Therapy center must come from contributions- about 70 per cent of our an­ nual budget comes in this way. The center receives no tax money of any kind. The remain­ ing 30 per cent comes from pa­ tients who are able to pay for services," said Mrs. Howard Fiedelman, campaign chair­ man. tt has been the policy of the center from its inception to treat patients regardless of an ability to pay. Those that can pay are asked to do so. Work of volunteers in such respon­ sibilities as the important fund drive provides. valuable man­ power and womanpower for the organization. Mrs. Fiedelman explained that persons desiring treatment can obtain physical therapy after being referred to the Cen­ ter by their doctor. People who want speech therapy assistance should contact the Center di­ rectly at 338-1707. The Therapy center is fortun­ ate to have a top staff, headed by Bill Cooke, registered phys­ ical therapist. He is assisted by Mrs. James Batz, registered physical therapist, and two therapy aides. Mrs. Lu Pierce is the staff speech therapist. The Easter Seal Therapy cen­ ter is administered by a vol­ unteer board of directors, elected from throughout Mc­ Henry county.

Dear Louisa, I am very much in love and would like to get married in­ stead of attending college. But my parents are very unreason­ able and say they will not help us unless I get an education first. Why should I need a col­ lege education if I have some­ one to support me? Doris- Va. Answer: One never knows what will happen later in life. Some of us who feel so secure may have to face up to very hard situa­ tions later on and those who have an opportunity of getting an education are very foolish to pass it up. My suggestion to you is that you compromise with your parents and go to college for one year. At that time take the matter up again. It may be that you will all agree on your de­ cision at that time. Louisa Dear Louisa, I have a problem that a lot of girls have. Its over a boy who always acts like he likes me when we are alone but when we get with other girls and boys he lets me down. We aren't going steady but we are together a lots and I feel that I am part way going with him. One time when he was with me he even asked another girl out, right in front of me. Which way should I turn9 Confused-Ky. Answer: This boy certainly doesn't seem to be taking you as seri­ ously as you are taking him. He probably likes you and other girls too and doesn't care to be tied down to any one girl. Louisa. Address your letter to Louisa, P.O. Box 532 Orangeburg, S.C.29115 Pediatricians say that a baby is affected by emotions which react on his appetite. For this reason it is wise to conceal any emotional upset you may feel from your baby. His life should be made up, as much as possible, of eat-sleep- and-be-loved. When a baby is happy, he eats well, even if he dawdles. Calmly talk him into another bite, never force food into his mouth. We are told that a tiny baby begins food likes and dislikes with his first milk. Introduce new food gradually, so that he can easily become used to each new flavor and texture. With a very young baby, the texture may be even more important than flavor. If he refuses to eat a new food and spits it out, don't become upset. Take it casually and try him on the same ne* food the next day. HEALTH AND BEAUTY A baby has two very definite feelings connected with eating, hunger and appetite. Hunger means an uncomfortable feeling, with pains in his tummy. He will let you know when he feels hunger by his angry cry. Ap­ p e t i t e i s a v e r y p l e a s a n t sensation and this desire for food aids digestion. The modern mother is saved endless hours of work cooking and straining food for baby. The babyfoods today are just as carefully taste-tested for flavors as they are tested for food value. For the mother who has time and prefers to prepare her baby's food, the blender cuts one's time and work to a mini­ mum. Even formula-making has been made much easier. With most of todays formulars, all you need to do is add boiled water. V.I.P.

YMCA Prepares for '71 Summer Youth Program The Lake Region YMCA is starting preparations for this summer's program activities for youth.
