Luncheon Honors New County Dairy Princess Speaking at a lunch in her honor, where she had an opportunity to greet the press, Diane Heinrich, newly-crowned McHenry County Dairy Princess, said that people who avoid drinking milk because of mis-information "hurt themselves more by the nutrition they don't get because milk is a valuable source of good nutrition." She criticized the "blanket indictment" of dairy products, prodded in part by the health and fitness craze. Ms. Heinrich, a sophomore at the University of Illinois, looks forward to the chance to welcome city friends to her family farm near Ridgefield. She'd like to start the "Breakfast On A Farm" program popularized in Wisconsin to bring people to a dairy farm for the early morning milking. Then a breakfast would be served and visitors would have an opportunity to talk with farm people. She said her family in volvement includes some cooking, helping with the farm work, and working in the large garden. Ms. Heinrich's home economics experience in cluded many 4-H dairy and food programs. She was chosen to attend the 4-H Club Congress last November, top honor accorded a 4-H member. She also has completed several suc cessful 4-H clothing projects, winning recognition as a state fair construction participant.

"I've learned that 4-H is rewarding in many ways. First of all, 4-H is fun. Not only the various activities, but also the lasting friend ships that make 4-H a source of enjoyment. There is also the feeling of ac complishment when you have finished your project and hold your ribbon in your hand. "However, these are not the most important rewards 4-H offers. 4-H gives you the building blocks to strengthen your character and prepare you for adulthood. Through your projects, 4-H allows you to discover your interests and irftyffeve your abilities. Although your nerves may be put to test, 4-H allows you to build confidence in yourself through activities like public speaking. "Through your 4-H work, you are given the chance to express yourself as you wish. All of this offered to the 4-H'er who is willing to accept the challenge and work to his fullest potential. With the qualities of leadership, confidence and capability, there is nothing you cannot do." Jeanette May, 18, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Dennis May, McHenry, is a nine-year member of the Lincoln Cloverleafs. "4-H is so much more than a club...it's a world. 4-H opens the door to so many experiences in growing and learning and fun. My projects are mostly arts and crafts, along with leader ship, cat care, foods and communications, a "Without 4-H I would not have gone to 4-H teen camp, known what it is like to search a woods for two hours in the middle of the night for two camper^that weren't really missing, nor felt the fear of speaking before a large group of people. _ "4-H holds every op portunity a young person could desire, and all you have to do is go after it."
