PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1975 Recognized In Eagle Walk Demise Of Old Fashion Church Supper Reviewed Pictured above are the two children from each school who were especially recognized during the recent Eagle Walk held in McHenry. One was chosen for having covered the greatest distance and the other for the largest amount of pledges. In bottom row, from left, are Cathy Curran and Tom Scheder of Edgebrook; Kirk Barnicle and Matt Adams of Hilltop; Darryl Branham, Jimbo Mass (tie) and JoAnn Campbell, Valley View; in back, Danny Schooley of Parkland both distance and pledges, and Mark Costigan and John Costigan, McHenry Junior high. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD The Ecology committee of District 15 was happy for the enthusiastic support of the community in its endeavor to help provide refuges for the Bald Eagle. The recent Eagle Walk was a huge success. If all pledges are honored, the project should net several hundred dollars. Families of the participants gathered to watch and even joined their children in a walk or two around the course. A touch of color was added by the red pinnies worn by the Valley View walkers. These beautiful garments with appliqued Eagles were made by Mrs. Lola Schiller, mother of one of the walkers. It was a fun day for all. Dr. Paulausky's good humor spurred the walkers on. Each walker was determined to do his best - to make the most laps possible in the allotted time. Many refused offers of cookies and lemonade - or perhaps took a hurried sip and continued on their way. A spirit of friendly rivalry developed as the walk progressed and for a few, the Eagle Walk became a track event. Kirk Barnicle, a fourth grade student from Hilltop, made 22 laps (or 11 miles) in two hours. (by Father William O. Hanner, rector emeritus of Holy Comforter church. Episcopal, Kenilworth) One morning not long back I was starting, a big day by listening to Josh Brady on his morning show at WIVS in Crystal Lake. He played a record about the "Three little fishies thwam and thwam right over the dam." After Josh got the fishies back in the pool he started t& tell us all the day's happenings including church suppers. Now I am a church Others who made spectacular records were McHenry Junior high students: John Costigan, 21 laps and John Schmitt, Mark Costigan and Eric Lange, who each made 20 laps. Other students who helped make the project a success were as follows: Parkland: Sixth grade, Danny Schooley, 16 laps, Tony Parisi, 12 laps; seventh grade, Lynn Effler, 15 laps; Kim Reese, 15 laps; Ted Beaman, 12 laps and Rose Webb, 5 laps. Hilltop: Third grade, Matt Adams, 16 laps, Donna Davidson, 13 laps; fourth grade, Maria Nejedly, 13 laps; fifth grade, Bridget Heald, 13 laps; Steve Mueller, 18 laps. Valley View: Third grade, Greta Larsen, 13 laps; Jimbo Mass, 19 laps; fourth grade, Geraldine Schiller, 15 laps; Mark Yenny, 14 laps; fifth grade, JoAnn Campbell, 15 laps; Darryl Branham, 19 laps. Edgebrook: Third grade, Cathy Curran, 12 laps; Tom Schweder, 16 laps; fourth grade, Mike Bauml, 15 laps; Mike Palmer, 14 laps; fifth grade, Dan Novotny, 11 laps; Robin Heneise, 13 laps. supper fan and listened with both ears. The message was that at the Alden United Methodist church, that very evening, there was to be a chicken supper with cream chicken on home baked biscuits. The hours from 5 'til closing time or when the last hungry face was smiling. Josh is not versed on Alden's geography. He asked the lady over the phone, "which church is it? Where is it?" She told him, "Why it's the only church in town, it's right there on the main street!", and it was. We found it easily. It seems the supper was for the camping fund of the Pioneer Girls. It was in the church basement and the tables were lined up too close together just as they must be if you are to get everyone in. s You got a good big plate with two baking powder biscuits broken open covered with creamed chicken 'til they swam. String beans, mashed potatoes and gravy were given you with a tray. A table of desserts with a dozen different kinds of pie and an assortment of cakes and puddings awaited your pleasure. Hard by was a selection of salads. You stood in line for a short time waiting for your plate. Beverages were poured by the girls at the table. Across from us were Mr. and Mrs. Walter Wilcox of Wood­ stock. Mrs. Wilcox is an up-to- the-minute lady. She told me she reads all my articles in the Plaindealer. Thank you, Mrs. Wilcox. To my left sat Ben Barber, opposite him sat his wife. He is a bird watcher. He told me he had seen an osprey get a fish from a pond that very morning.

GBEEN STREET MALL TTT moo ooooooooooooooooc icoocooocooooooooooooooooooooooouooooooo Mother s Cards now, but were once more plentiful. The Barbers live near Greenwood. Joyce Rich was serving our table. She is one of the Pioneer girls. After supper we met the church's student pastor. Mr. Perry Law. He is from Alabama, attends Garret Biblical Institute in Fvanston. where he studies for the Methodist ministry. When I was in the parish ministry I used to take Mrs. Hanner. load the car with high school young people and take them off to a country church dinner somewhere. In those days everything was donated; the charge for dinner was 50 -cents (that was long;long ago). The kids always had a ball and so did the Hanners. At Preemption. 111., at St. John's parish (which for four years I handled as a mission of Trinity, Rock Island) the ladies would have a fall dinner to which the whole countryside came. They woi^ld serve from about 4:30 'til 9 p.m. and every dish was washed with water CARRIKI) from the farm well across the road. One year, after I left, they put on a turkey dinner with all the trimmings. They charged $5 a plate, took over the Methodist camp grounds and made $1,500, which was a down payment on a house for their new vicar to live in. On another occasion I took - Rose and four high school girls to a country church down on the Mississippi river in a town in Mercer county, New Boston I think. There was no bridge over the river but a state owned, free ferry, took us over to the Iowa side where, in a small town off the main roads I bought a 150- year-old rocking chair with a cane bottom. It sits in my study right now as I write. I won'tlell you what I paid for it -- you wouldn't believe me anyway. It gave us a pair. Another thing about church dinners, the kids always have so much fun. What is more fun for kids 7 to 12 years old than helping out at church dinner. The smaller ones can get under foot, be in the way and thus have a pro-did-jus time. I am sorry to see that in many places the church supper is a past event. Some parishes get in caterers to serve on occasion. This is a cultural error. The culture . calls for chicken, meat loaf,'ro£kst beef- prepared by the ladies, served by them with high school girls waiting on the tables, small kids underfoot, the men washing dishes in the kitchen. The neighborhood comes in to eat and the high school boys wait around 'til the girls are done waiting tables so they can see them home. Josh, keep us posted. Ladies have supper. The rest of you go and eat and do yourselves a favor! FILM AT CHURCH "The Gospel Road, a story of Jesus sung and told by Johnny Cash, will be shown at 7 and 8:30 p.m. Sunday, May 18, at the First Baptist church, McHenry. The public is invited to attend and no charge will be •nade. Just ahead! National Hospital week (May 11-17), and Memorial Hospital for McHenry County will be an active participant in telling how it shows the constant concern the public has come to expect from this county-wide hospital. From left are Betty Brown, Janet McMichael, and Executive Director Bert Hanson. Mrs. Brown and Mrs. McMichael are Woman's auxiliary volunteers. (DON PEASLEY PHOTOGRAPHY) Prepare For Hospital Week Eight registered nurses in Memorial Hospital for McHenry County's obstetrical department have attended a special school. Two other registered nurses will attend a major meeting in Chicago next month to learn how to evaluate patient care- then they will conduct workshops for nurses at Memorial hospital. "Going to school" and "at­ tending workshops" are an integral part of a registered nurse 's routine for Memorial hospital staff members. The example of the nurses, to further their knowledge to improve their ability to care for special people (their patients), best exemplifies the "Constant Concern" attitude of the entire staff at this county-wide hospital. Memorial Hospital for McHenry County, serving a large area in northern Illinois and many southern Wisconsin communities since 1914, joins the 7,000 hospitals in the United States to observe National Hospital week May 11-17. "A Constant Concern for a Healthy Community" is the 1975 theme, and Bert Hanson, executive director, explains the various training programs the Registered Nurses undergo are examples of the ongoing educational requirements all skilled personnel undergo regularly. "The X-ray technicians, laboratory personnel, physical therapy and inhalation specialists all receive con­ tinuing training to keep on top of the newest developments in their areas of expertise," said Hanson. "Today's special National Hospital week feature will focus on how registered nurses and nurse 's aides receive ongoing training, and you may be surprised at the extent of their sacrifice to take part in these courses and workshops," said Hanson. The eight nurses who work in the obstetrical department attended a fetal monitoring course at St. Anthony's hospital, Rockford, to prepare for the arrival of equipment on order. The equipment is used to monitor the soon-to-be-born baby and assist mother and child before, during and after delivery. Mrs. Carol Block, R.N., and Mrs. Carol Bastian, R.N., will attend the Chicago workshop on evaluation of patient care, part of a program of continued improvement in patient care the Joint Commission on Ac­ creditation seeks. After they return in June, Mrs. Block and Mrs. Bastian will conduct workshops for hospital nursing personnel. "We have many nurses at­ tending a class or workshop to improve their professional skills and to keep abreast of developments in their areas of responsibility, says Mrs. Arlene Hosick, R.N., director of nursing services at Memorial hospital.
