They will join with the young and not- so-young in thousands of other communities across the nation in a "Coming of Age Celebration". Millions of eighteen-to-twenty-one-year- olds will be participating in a national election for the first time and will be joining their elders in assuming full citizenship responsibilities. In keeping with this theme, a panel of students from McHenry County college will present the program, moderated by Professor Erwin Cornelius of the Political Science department. Students from the Crystal Lake high school music department will entertain. The program, as planned by Libby Podpora and Carol Thorpe, co-chairman, gives emphasis and special recognition to the idealism, vigor and commitment to a peaceful world community that young people bring with them as "citizens-come-of-age." Women of all churches are invited to join in this united celebration. It will be a time for sharing of dreams between young and old; no doubt there will be verbal concerns for peace, the environment, race, food, local as well as world conditions. Small groups will have an opportunity to talk over a simple lunch which will follow the program. Through offerings received on World Community Day and World Day of Prayer, which go into a fund called In­ tercontinental Mission, Church Women United across the nation participates in a ministry all over the world. This year, of particular con­ cern in relation to World Community Day, are programs to train women to cope with the rapid changes in society and to help shape new social struc­ tures. For example, the In­ tercontinental Mission budget includes funds enabling the participation of minority women in a variety of decision­ making conferences, major assistance to establish a program on social and economic development among women in the Caribbean, grants for self-development projects among American Indians and Spanish-speaking women, budget assistance for a Christian women's world conference on peace-building, and funds for training sessions for church women who volunteer to serve disad­ vantaged persons as tutors in adult basic education programs and as assistants in health care systems. Other international aspects of the celebration that are not forgotten during the rest of the year are the Clothing Appeal of " Church World Services, local CROP committees, and the sale of gift certificates which Mr. and Mrs. James Mahoney of Chicago were weekend guests in the home of her sister, Mrs. Eleanor Foley. Mr. and Mrs. Philip Thennes have returned from their honeymoon spent in Hawaii. They were accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. John Thennes on the 10 day trip which was made by plane. Mrs. Francis Smid and Mrs. Alfons Adams accompanied Mr. and Mrs. John Savini and daughter, Teri, of Island Lake, to Sycamore Sunday where they celebrated Mrs. Smid's seventy-fourth birthday in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Savini. Mrs. James West and daughter, Kim, of Itasca visited McHenry relatives Monday. Mrs. James Kline of Woodstock was honored at a family gathering at the home of her* parents, Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Olsen, on Oct. 13, the occasion being her birthday. Other than her parents those who helped her celebrate were her husband and two children, the Leslie Olsen, Jr., family of Crystal Lake and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Low and Bobby of McHenry. Mr. and Mrs. Howard Cairns were in Williams Bay, Wis., Monday, where they attended the funeral of his brother, Ralph Cairns. Envy and jealousy eat out one's soul and warp one's personality. • • » • The best counsellor is the man who gives you no ad­ vice. purchase material aid in large amounts. The certificates cost $3 and can be designated to dress an overseas child, provide books and materials for leadership and vocational training to American Indians, provide blankets for refugee and disaster situations, or as emergency funds to be used "where needed most." Response to these appeals finds its climax on World Community Day, a good time to remember that, as members of a World community, there is a responsibility to share. Many local churches sponsor a "Blanket Sunday" but of­ ferings of blankets or clothing can be brought on World Community Day and the gift certificates will also be available. M.
