PAGE 2 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. APRIL 22.1977 Bible Teacher Speaks At Women Aglow Lunch Bob Johnson, popular Bible teacher, will speak at the Thursday, April 28. Women Aglow in Christ luncheon, to be held at Martinetti's of Crystal Lake beginning at 11 a.m. For the past eleven years. Bob Johnson, a general con­ tractor. has been led into a paradoxical situation. As a Protestant layman, the Lord has brought him into a teaching ministry, primarily among Catholics, beginning with priests and nuns. ; Compelled by a strong inner desire for the word of God, he was directed to the scripture. "But the anointing which you received from Him abides in you and you have no need that anyone should teach you as His anointing teaches you about everything". After years of intensive in- dependant Bible study, this leading was confirmed when he was asked to teach the monks at St. Benedict's. He taught there for about three and a harf years. About eight years ago. Bob began teaching a small group of nuns at St. Joseph's school in Libertyville. This has grown into a weekly study of over 300 persons of all denominations. Angela Amici of McHenry will inspire the group with appropriate songs. Reservations may be made by contacting either Mrs. Walter Ulick or Mrs. Anthony Amici. both of McHenry.

SENIOR CITIZEN'S CORNER* HELPFUL IDEAS FOR SUCCESSFUL RETIREMENT Conservation To Be Topic At DAR Meeting Know Yourself Even in retirement, the struggle to understand yourself never ends You keep changing as you experience new things. Some researches feel you are really four people There is a Teal you" -- a you that's hard to keep up with and really know because you change so quickly Everything that hap­ pens to you affects this self The second "you" is the person you think you are -- your self image The third "you" is the person you'd like to be -- your ideal self Finally, there is a public "you" -- the person you let other people see You sometimes hide the real you because you can never be sure that people will really like or admire the real one. Good mental health requires that you be comfortable with all four selves. The ideal you must not be too far above the self- image. the public image or the real you. If it is, you're usually on the defensive. And defensive people are hiding Rather than defend, learn to recognize what is happening. Once you see the defenses you're using, you may find a better way to be yourself.

BABY NAMED Mr. and Mrs. Larry Dresdow, former McHenry residents, have named their first child, Leah Larissa. The little girl was born March 24. Proud grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. Edward Dresdow of McHenry. Mrs. Dresdow is the former Joni Bentey. It is often said that the true test of a person's worth is not what they say about them­ selves, but what other persons say about them. This is certainly true in the case of Mrs. Kathleen Mars, who is so modest that her true worth can only be determined through the words of her peers. Mrs. Mars works as the assistant director of volunteers at McHenry hospital, and here is what Bertha Stange, president of the Women's auxiliary at the hospital, says about her. "The extensive volunteer program at the hospital could not function without her. "Kathleen Mars is unsalaried and spends 120 to 130 hours a month supervising over eighty active volunteers in various departments, such as in­ formation, admitting, escort service, emergency room, etc." Mrs. Mars hardly speaks of herself in such glowing terms. But as the assistant director of volunteers at the hospital, she certainly has fcye right to. She has lived in McHenry for twenty-eight years and has served as a "Pink Lady" for the past several years. Yet, despite the many hours she devotes to helping others, Mrs. Mars doesn't feel that she MOTHER'S DAY BRUNCH SERVED 9:00 A.M. TO 1:00 S3.50 ADULTS $2.75 CHILDREN UNDER 10 1 SANDRA S. COWLES JOHN SAR1DAN, JR. TO EXCHANGE VOWS-A date of Aug. 27, 1977, has been set for an exchange of nuptial vows by Sandra Cowles and John Saridan, Jr. Sandra, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Cowley of McHenry, attended McHenry schools and is employed locally. Her fiance, the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Saridan, Sr. of Lindenhorst, attended schools in Chicago and is employed in Lindenhurst. Photo by Wayne Gaylord Story Series By Jeff Bona to is doing anything ex­ traordinary. "I'm accustomed to being out with people," she said. "Working at the hospital is a good thing for me. It keeps me out of mischief and gives me someplace to go in the morning when I get up." Mrs. Mars began her volunteer work through the urging of Dr. Ronald Massouda (now in Canada), who en­ couraged her to keep busy after her husband, Bill, passed away. "Dr. Massouda thought I should be doing something with my life, so he suggested becoming a volunteer," she explained. "I started working at the information desk, but I have done all the volunteer jobs, from the coffee shop to the gift shop to the escort service," she added. Mrs. Mars still does all the various jobs which volunteers do at the hospital.- But now, when she helps out at the gift shop, for example, it is because either she is short of help there, or there are many customers. Mrs. Mars, as supervisor of over eighty volunteers, checks each day to make sure there aren't any problems. "All the volunteers are dedicated people," she said. "One person alone couldn't do anything. It takes many people working together to accomplish the work we do get done. "I love being with people, caring for, and helping them," she said. "Myself, and all the volunteers, have made a lot of friends, not only with each other, but with the patients." Mrs. Mars throws all the credit for the successful volunteer program to the Community Calendar APRIL 22 & 23 Hurricane Happening- Marian Central Catholic High School--7:30 p.m. ARTS Presents "Four On a Garden"-McHenry Country Club-Friday, 9 p.m.--Saturday, 8 p.m .--Dinner-Theatre Reservations, 385-1072 International Airport-6 to 10 p.m.-First United Methodist Church-Tickets at Door.

"Victoria Behan is really great," Mrs. Mars said. "She's very active in the outreach progjam and many other things." Mrs. Mars also threw bouquets to Betty Schmitt, who is the director of the junior volunteer program, (formerly called candystripers), and Mrs. Stange, who is the auxiliary president. But make no mistake about it, Mrs. Schmitt, Mrs. Stange, and Mrs. Behan can ac­ complish the great amount of work they do because they can rely on Kathleen Mars to handle the volunteer program on a day-to-day basis. When the day is done, Mrs. Mars enjoys reading and has done some knitting. For forty years she worked with the Continental bank in Chicago as a filing supervisor. Her knowledge gained in handling and meeting people there has served her well in her capacity at the hospital. Though she won't admit it herself, countless others will say that Kathleen Mars is an integral part of making McHenry hospital work. And, after all, it's not what you say about yourself, but what others say about you, that really counts. In the case of Kathleen Mars, people say she is a community leader. SPECIALS!
