Green St., McHenry Felix E. Snipes of Atlanta, Ga., will be the music director and soloist for the Evangelistic Crusade in McHenry, March 3 through March 10 at 7:30 p.m. He will join the guest minister, Wayne Bristow of Lubbock, Texas, in leading First Baptist church in eight days of evangelistic emphasis. Snipes is beginning his twelfth year in full-time evangelistic music. Almost eight of those years he spent as Music and Platform director for Dr. Haggai and Evangelism International. In this capacity he directed the platform ac­ tivities and the mass choirs for their great city-wide crusades throughout America and many foreign countries. He was also in chargp of the advance and set-up work for the crusades and helped in the ad­ ministration of the office staff, thi£ missionary program, the development program and the International Training Center for Evangelism in Switzerland. Snipes possesses a rich baritone, solo voice and an unique ability to get congregations to join in the "sing-along time" of each service in which everyone joins in singing the old familiar songs of the church. However, it is probably as a dynamic choir director that Felix Snipes has become best known. His ability to take a group of inexperienced singers or a group of singers representing the many denominations and churches cooperating in a city-wide crusade and mold them into a professional sounding choir has seldom been equaled. Through his recent city-wide crusades in Indonesia, Lebanon, India, England and Portugal, Snipes has in­ troduced to the choirs and musicians of these countries the Evangelistic choir hymn- arrangements for which he has become so well known in his crusades. In addition to his own choir arrangements, Singspiration, Inc., the world's largest religious music publishing organization, has exemplified the missionary spirit in granting to Snipes the permission to share their vast library of choir arrangements with the mission fields he has visited. Each night of the crusade here in First Baptist church, he will feature the Crusade Choir in one of his special arrangements. The choir will rehearse with him 45 minutes before each service during the crusade. / P.ofnre entering the field of Evangelistic music, Snipes, a native of Jackson, Miss., served for six years as minister of music in Mississippi and Tennessee churches ranging in size from 200 members to more than 2,000 members. A graduate of Mississippi college, he and his wife and two children make their home in Atlanta, where they are active members of the First Baptist church. The members and friends of First Baptist church are looking forward with great anticipation to this Evangelistic Crusade led by Wayne Bristow and Felix E. Snipes. Services are at 7:30 p.m. each evening, March 3-10. Nursery facilities are provided for those with small children. Pastor Chappell says, "We cordially invite people of all faiths and those of no particular faith to take advantage of this wonderful opportunity to hear the thrilling music and in­ spiring messages by these two men of international reputation. Oberlin College Conservatory of Music in Oberlin, Ohio. They have played with symphonies in Dallas and Denver and have played recitals in Cleveland, Chicago and Denver. Upon leaving Oberlin, Michael Smith was enrolled at Chicago Theological seminary where he received his Master of Divinity degree in June of 1973. Before receiving his degree he accepted the ministerial position at Woodstock's Congregational- Universalist church and was a minister there when he was ordained in September, 1973. While currently holding his position as minister in the local church he also holds the position of assistant instructor in a doctoral program in comparative religions at Northwestern university and is also pursuing his PH.D. in that same area at Northwestern. He has been acting as minister of the Woodstock church since August, 1971. The couple was married following his graduation from Oberlin and since she was two years behind him she was forced to discontinue her studies at Oberlin. Currently she is engaged in pursuing her B.A. degree from Northern Illinois university. While at Oberlin Mrs. Smith, although only a sophomore, was one of the school's most sought after accompanists. The Fine Arts chorale is regarded as one of the finest choral ensembles in northern Illinois. They have been in existence for several years and have become an institution throughout the area. Their previous Woodstock presentations included Han­ del's "Messiah", Faure's FORMAL WEAR RENTAL for ALL OCCASIONS Grandma Sez Here I go again, expoundin' on th' importance o' women, who take th' responsibility o' motherhood lightly, an' turn out unprepared younguns, fer teachers t' cope wi', ah' try t' undo th' harm, along wi' teachin' th' usual lessons. In times gone by, afore "Women's Lib," an other foolishness, mothers cared enough t' make motherhood a career. There's a great pride in producin' a family that's a credit t' earnest effort put forth, t' mould th' young lives. Nowadays, there's so much t' have, th' temptation's great, t' git a job in order t' pad th' family income, so's t' afford th' extras. Folks eat better 'n ever in history, an' Americans enjoy a life o' ease, wi' vacations, an' play-time, like our fathers ne'er had. They have money t' travel all o'er the globe, an' th' pattern 's set fer th' young t' expect th' same. In th' meantime, young childern fetch fer 'emselves. They're left wi' babysitters, 'r "Requiem", a program of Elizabethan music complete with food, costumes and musical instruments of the period, and others. The concluding programs in this four-program series will be the Alpha Omega Players presenting George Bernard Shaw's "Saint Joan" on Friday, April 12; and the Repertory Opera theatre presenting Claude Debussy's "The Prodigal Son" and Franz Lehar's 'The Merry Widow" Saturday, May 4. Series tickets will be available at the door as well as some business firms. Proceeds from the series go into the Woodstock Fine Arts association's operating fund. Some of the proceeds from the Smith program will be used to help defray the cost of the WFAA's newly acquired grand piano.

Th' sad part is, society's a changin', an' not fer th' good. Th' reason we had fewer young folk engaged in harmful use o' drugs, strong drink, an' im­ moral acts, may be laid t' th' fact that parents wuz on th' job, twenty-four hours a day, 'til that youngster wuz grown. Childern knew their folks cared enough t' take time t' teach an' guide 'em. A few years back, younguns respected th' rules, an' it wuz only th' few who got inter trouble. Teachers had th' full cooperation o' parents, an' th' result wuz amazin'. What's needed badly, 's fer mothers an' fathers t' git back t' a little o' th' old-fashioned methods, which proved so good that we turned out some fine young folk. We still see a great many commendable younguns, an' it's a good bet that they're from parents who taught 'em th' golden rule, along wi' a good many others. It used t' be a regular thing, after th' dinner hour, fer a mother 'r father t' put in an hour 'r more, a teachin' th' small ones t' read, 'r write, 'r help th' older members wi' homework. Th' TV takes up all th' time, an' th' childern suffer. Seems that folks, a lot smarter than this oP granny, 're beginnin' t' realize that th' "Tube" hain't been th' good influence it was intended t' be. In fact, many o' us feel that it may be responsible fer th' increase in crime, lowered standards o' society, an' in­ fluential in many ways, detrimental t' th' well-bein' o' th' human race, in civilized societies. I'm beginning' t' think that civilization's sinkin' t' lower levels, 'stead o' growin' better wi' age, an' it all begins in th' home, startin' from th' first day o' life, through those Affliliate Artist Back On County Lecture Tour Affiliate Artist Niki Flacks begins her second year of free McHenry county lecture performances aimed at taking the performing arts to the people with a three-week stay Feb. 26 to March 15. Sponsored by the Woodstock Fine Arts association, the Broadway actress is one of tender years, when parents c'n shape a life. This world needs some ol' fashioned patents, who think it's more important t' rear fine offspring, than t' have th' luxuries afforded by t'day's standards.
