(STAFFPHOTO-WAYNEGAYLORD)-- NATURALLY SPEAKING BY Joan Chapman D O O M E D W I T H O U T "D" We certainly would be! Natural Vitamin "D" comes from the sunshine and where would any of us be without sunshine? (especially Forida!) Here is how "Old Sol" per­ forms his magic there is a substance secreted in the oil glands of the skin, when the skin is exposed to the sun this substance becomes Vitamin "D". Insomnia victims, you might find this interesting, Vitamin "D" is another one of nature's tranquilizers. It helps to relax the nerves and induces sound sleep. It is real must for our nervous system. Not only does "D" prevent Rickets, but it is quite im­ portant for eye health, regular heart action and very im­ portant to the thyroid gland. Remember, too, as we get older our need for Vitamin "D" McHENRY UNIT 491 By Pearl Cooper After the advancement of the flags, the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner" and the pledge of allegiance, the Oc­ tober meeting was called to order by the president, Mrs. Lloyd (Midge) Scharf. Foreign Relations chairman, Mrs. Richard (Lydia) Fenner, announced that the country for 1973-74 is South Korea, and the money collected by CARE contributions will be used for 'electrification for fifteen villages in South Korea. "Let There Be Light" is the theme. Communications chairman, Mrs. Jack (Pearl) Cooper, reminded all chairmen to contact her for publicity on their chairmanship and also asked all members to save her the clippings from the local newspapers, cutting out the name of the paper, article and date. Past President Parley chairman, Mrs. Raymond (Betty Lou) Smith, told of the Past Presidents meeting that was held at the home of Reba Owen, with ElizabethJSchoewer h. The Island Lake Lion's club X held their monthly dinner ; meeting at the Community - Congregational church of Island Lake on Wednesday, Oct. 24, honoring the Lion's Little League team, their ; fathers, and coach and team manager. Lion district l-J Governor Charles A. Hammer - paid his official visit to the club and gave a short address on Lionism. District Deputy • Governor Leo Krum me and Zone Chairman George Ab- bamonto were also in at­ tendance. Highlight of the evening was the appearance of Terry Periman of the Philadelphia Phillies who was guest speaker for the affair. Terry gave a very interesting and colorful accounting of his career from his early days when he pitched for the Island Lake Lions Championship team in 1961 through his baseball experiences at Wauconda high • school where he was selected by the Chicago Tribune for the All Suburban All Stars. He then went on to pitch at the University of Missouri for two years when he was drafted by the Phillies. Terry concluded his informative speech directed to the Little Leaguers with a question and answer session, getting as many inquiries from the fathers and Lion members as from the "younger kids." Terry is now recuperating at home with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Russel Periman of Wauconda, after encountering a muscle injury in a game this past summer. He expects to return to training camp this winter, possibly in Mexico. Pictured above left to right is Program Chairman Fred Amour.

PHOTO BY MANTZOROS TOCIQK'S Health Netvs Published by the American Medical Association A nursery school teacher found a four-year-old lying unconscious at the bottom of a 14-foot-high staircase. His shallow breathing, his forehead beaded with perspir­ ation, and his pale face told her that the boy was in shock. She quickly administered first aid: checking for any bleeding or bro­ ken bones, keeping the patient lying down, and positioning his head lower than the trunk of his body until help could arrive. The teacher knew what to do because she had recently read about first aid procedures. Death and serious injury can be avoided if a person takes time to learn what to do beforehand.
