ANNUAL FISHING EXPEDITION Our guysp took what is becoming an annual holiday trip to Wisconsin for the Memorial Day weekend. Larry Kottk$, Paul Kottke, Paul Doetsch and my husband, Jim, spent the weekend fishing in Como, Wis. Apparently the fish were already well fed, as the fellows brought home only a few fish, a couple of crappies and bass. The trip was fairly uneventful, with the exception of the excitement generated when a youngster hooked himself in the face and had to be transported to the hospital to have it removed. This incident may serve as a reminder to our own young anglers to display extreme care when using fishing equipment.

Local Members At Christian Science Meeting Today's need tor moral integrity is "one of the most obvious urgencies in our society," Christian Scientists from many countries were told at the denomination's annual meeting in Boston June 3. "No nation could long prosper while drifting into a miasma of moral blindness, public and private," DeWitt John, the new chairman of the Christian Science board of directors, declared. "Divine Principle (God) is the real source of integrity and justice for every nation," he said, "and our individual adherence tp principle is a powerful help in demonstrating God's government among men." More than 6,500 members of the Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, were on hand. According to Frederic H. Lamb, the ' Assistant Committee on Publication for McHenry, a number of members were from the local area. Some of them viewed the newly-completed Church Center for the first time. Mr. John told the gathering that there is an answer to the widespread confusion in the world. "At the heart of all of today's needs," he said, "is the need for spiritualization of thought. Undestroyed materialism is what would prevent healing...and reduce society to confusion." Quoting from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy, who discovered and founded Christian Science, Mr. John said: "Honesty is spiritual power. Dishonesty is human weakness, which forfeits divine help." Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico, serves as home to some 8 million bats, of 14 different species.
