Roger Olson will give the Meditation and women from area churches will join in the celebration. World Day of Prayer dates back to 1887 and this year women in 140 countries and 33 islands will united in prayer on this historic day. The service for this year was written by students in the Pan-African Leadership course for Women at Mindolo Ecumenical foundation in Kitwe, Zambia. The five-month leadership course trains up to twenty women each year employed by churches, other voluntary organizations, and govern­ ments from various African countries. The purpose of the course is to give women leadership training skills in areas in which women carry the main responsibility. The women are then equipped to promote women's ad­ vancement and to head women's organizations and programs in their respective countries. Each year, women in a dif­ ferent nation are asked to write the World Day of Prayer ser­ vice based on themes chosen by the International Committee for World Day of Prayer. Church Women United is the officially- recognized sponsor of World Day of Prayer in the United States. The women of Africa send this message: "Our warm greetings to all the Christians around the world who are coming together from different places for the World Day of Prayer 1979. We hope the voices of the Pan-African Leadership Course at Mindolo can be heard in solidarity with the voices of women in the world as we pray together on World Day of Prayer 1979".

Daniel O'Brien, the depart­ ment's animal products in­ vestigation administrator, warned that not only is it illegal to purchase meat from such firms, but the meat is often unwholesome because it has not been inspected. More unlicensed establishments are likely to surface now with the anticipated increase in beef prices, said O'Brien. Con­ sumers are advised to contact the department's Springfield office (217-782-4944) if a Jiuestion arises about a firm's icense validity. Following a potluck luncheon Feb. 15, outgoing president of the McHenry United Methodist Women, Patricia Esposito, conducted an installation of the 1979 officers. They include president, Marilyn Haii^es; vice-president, Patricia Esposito; secretary, Lyda Radish; treasurer, Veretta Gerstad; christian global concerns, Janice Ballowe; christian social involvement, Marian Barrows, christian personhood, Bea Nuziard; supportive community, Mae Stinespring; membership, Charleen Tonyan; local church activities, Bertha Stange; publicity, Lyda Radisch; nominations, Vivian Richards and secretary of program materials, Lyda Radisch. Also installed were circle chairladies Lyda Radisch of Marcia Mary Ball circle, Helen Borland of Priscilla circle, Marian Barrows of Ruth circle and Evelyn Smith of the Evening circle. Those unable to attend, who will be installed at a later date, were Jan Ballowe, Bertha Stange, Vivian Richards, and Evelyn Smith. Among business items discussed was the 1979 budget which met with unanimous approval. The Women's Retreat will be held at George Williams college on March 24 and 25. Further information can be secured from Marilyn Haines. Pat Esposito an­ nounced the "Crop Walk" which will take place on Palm Sunday. Four volunteers are needed from our U.M.W. to work at the Clothing Closet at Woodstock on Friday, May 11. The date of the Spring rummage sale has been scheduled for Friday, April 6, and Saturday, April 7. Veretta Gerstad will be chairlady and will select several co- chairladies, and of course, many workers will be needed. Circle chairladies will ask circle members to .sign up to help on Thursday, April 5, and to specify hours they will be working on the sixth and seventh. The craft group is meeting at 10 a.m. each Monday at the church. They are working on several small projects, but hope to get better organized with many more attending and bringing their ideas and samples. By working together and sharing fellowship much can be accomplished. The Mother & Daughter banquet is scheduled for May 17. Pat Esposito advised that the "Holiday Boutique" program is scheduled for Nov. 6. Veretta Gerstad, treasurer, conducted the pledge service, which was very nice. Bea Nuziard's meditations were very in­ spiring and most interesting. The meeting had very im­ pressive installation and pledge services; too bad the weather did not cooperate so more could have attended. The next general meeting of the U.M.W. will be on Thur­ sday, March 15, at noon. It will begin with the "Agape Lun­ cheon", and the Priscilla circle will be the hostesses. The program will be.
