Organized recreation and refreshments will be a part of each day's schedule. The public, as well as the members of the parish, are invited to register students for the school by calling the church office or co-superintendents Bernadine Reingardt, 344- 1319, or Mrs. Wm. C. (Gail) Anderson. There is no registration fee for the school. A free will offering will be received at the brief morning THE INDIVIDUAL APPROACH AT HOME With a houseful of children, this is not easy. One way that helps is to keep an informal list' of activity ideas as they come to mind. Have a notepad handy (on the refrigerator door?) to jot down ideas such as "Try collages with Sara" or "Help John bake cookies." Individualized activities do not have to be fancy - actually, the simpler the better, and they don't have to take much time. The child who has trouble getting organized can use a telephone directory of his very own, one of those glamorous (but inexpensive) push-down items in which he can list friends' names and mumbers and find them on his own. The child who feels clumsy in arts and crafts can paint a wall or a piece of furniture in a color of his choice. Let him refurbish some old furniture first. Just as in school, individualizing a program is based on that good, hard look at the child trying to ascertain what he-she needs at this time - and then, using good, old inventive, common sense imagination! Providing success experiences is the key! opening service to defray the cost of the school. Leading the school in the brief opening morning worship and music will be Bonnie Schopp and Rosemary Schneider. Keeping Children Productive and Creative: Parents who want to have some time alone will need to make sure their children have available to them some constructive activities. Set up, with the child, an activity corner for a sunny or rainy day: stock with paper, crayons, markers, glue, string, odd pieces of fabrics, old magazines, safe things a child can use alone and inventively. The scissors can be round edged just to be sure. Jobs Around Home: Divide up household chores and glamour tasks, too. These can be some of the new skills a child learns how to do: how to bake a pie, how to use the washing machine, how to repair a broken step, how to take care of his own clothes. Mix and match "ugly" chores with more beautiful ones. The child who has to take out the garbage ought to get first crack at concocting French toast for breakfast, etc. Arrange with neighbors for an exchange system with children, perhaps for read aloud sessions or time in the sprinkler. Encourage local teen-agers to set up play groups or activity clubs in their backyards or apartments The teens will have jobs, which are very scarce today; children will have fun and learning, and parents will have needed time for themselves. Avoiding Unnecessary Friction: Summer is hot Proclamation On July 4, a hundred and ninety-eight years ago, John Adams, a delegate to the Continental Congress, prophesied that this date on which the Declaration of Independence was adopted "will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival." Eleven years ago observance enough without all those heated arguments about whose tufn it is to mow the lawn, clear the dishwasher, set the table, etc. Any family with kids who argue otfer such matters needs a large calendar with lots of white space. Work out a schedule for jobs and privileges: Mondays, it's Jane for dishes, Tuesdays, it's Tom, etc. Do the same for favorite TV shows, and any other problems that usually lead to' screams. Not all screaming may be avoided, but the decibel level will be cut down. What does out of school summer activity have to do with school success: ordinary things like making a bed, running the vacuum^ mowing the lawn? More than many people think. School achievement depends on the child's ability to organize, to see a job through to completion, and to feel satisfaction in a job well done. If from an early age, a child is helped to work on and finish jobs and feel the subsequent satisfaction, chances are he- she will continue to enjoy the pleasure of a job well done and will not "fizzle out", and leave school assignments half finished - a problem so frustrating to teachers, parents and the children themselves. PA(iK 17-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY. w SE 28, 1W4 of the day with bell-ringing, reminiscent of the ringing of the Liberty Bell in Philadelphia, was inaugurated. President John F. Kennedy considered the bell-ringing "a worthwhile and symbolic ceremony, which should certainly renew citizen awareness of our heritage." Just as the Declaration of Independence united the fledgling colonies, so the simultaneous ringing of the bells should serve to unify the divergent sentiment in our country today. Greater than any individual or group is the delineation of rights approved by our founding fathers. When bells and carillons are heard in Illinois at 1 p.m. on July 4 we can find inspiration in the thought that in all our fifty states, from the Arctic Ocean through the Pacific and across to the Atlantic, our fellow citizens will be hearing, through seven time zones, the s a m e m e s s a g e c o m m e m o r a t i n g t h e sovereignty of our nation and the right of her people to "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." Therefore I, Joseph B. Stanek, Mayor of the City of McHenry, proclaim July 4, 1974, Bells on Independence Day and urge all McHenry residents to appropriately observe the day. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Seal of the City of McHenry, Illinois, to be affixed. Done at the City of McHenry, Illinois, this twenty-fourth day of June, in the Year of Our Lord one thousand nine hundred and seventy-four. Joseph B. Stanek MAYOR Conservstlon Trustees Buy 40-Ac re Option At the regular board meeting June 20, the trustees of the McHenry County Conservation district announced they had purchased a 60-day option' for an approximate 40-acre addition to Burrow's Woods. The 40-acre site lies on both sides of Rush creek in Section 1 of Dunham township and is composed of approximately 15 acres of oak-hickory' timber with the remaining portion of the acreage high ground with grass cover. The 60-day option was purchased from Henry and Alfred Burrow for $4,000. The option calls for the purchase by the district on a contract at an average cost of $1,800 per acre, after approval by *. the Department of Conservation and an A-95 review by the Northeastern Illinois Planning commission. Public discussion * is scheduled for the Aug. 8 meeting of the trustees before final action is taken to exercise the option.
