Then it will be on to another grade in the same school except for the eighth grade class, which will begin a new adventure. .Their graduation on May 31 will be over and also their exciting trip to. Springfield. The trip to Springfield was geared for the energies of the eighth grader, and the chaperones who accompanied them wondered where all the energy came from. The schedule gave them barely enough time foi' /that extra cup of coffee to keep them going! Ten boys, fifteen girls and seven chaperones left May 21 in a bus chartered from Todd school. Roger Hill was the driver of the bus. Mr., Thomas, who made all the plans, went ahead in his car to make sure all arrangements were complete. At noon Monday the bus stopped at the zoo in Bioomington, whore the children had their lunch. Arriving at Springfield in the early afternoon, they visited Lincoln Memorial and took a guided tour of the Capitol building. They saw the governor's : office and went through a museum at the Capitol building. Monday evening there was dinner at a very nice restaurant and a show later. Tuesday morning was spent at New Salem state park and Dickson Mounds state park was visited on the way home Tuesday. A bus load of tired, happy children arrived at the Center that evening and , all felt the trip was worth the efforts they had made to raise the money necessary for such an outing. ; The chaperones were Mrs. Cecich, Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Bethke, Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Roti, Mrs. Hampton and Mr. Foiles. Mrs. Wench, teacher of the j third and fourth grades, is end-' ing school with a case of meas- ; les. Fortunately, they are the ; three-day kind and we hope her , summer will prove to be free ; from such things. j Birthday Time Mrs. Elaine Spuehr celebrated her birthday May 19 by going to dinner with her husband and Mr. and Mrs. Jim Bell. Another birthday was celebrated by Mrs. Anita Hansen May 24. She accompanied her daughter to the G.A.A. banquet at McHenry high school and then to the show. She received many gifts and cards from friends and relatives. • i Country club.

Babies as a rule are very well put together and will stand considerable mauling. Handling the infant like a piece of china is not necessary.

This i$ frequently caused by the plugging of the small duct that drains the tears and secretions from the eye to the nose. The opening of this little duct is in the edge of the lower lid in. the corner of the eye. In most instances this can be corrected by pressing gently with the small finger in the corner of the eye toward the nose. The light pressure helps clear the duct hut if the tearing persists, the physician should be consulted. Some babies are born with teeth, but this is very rare.

A good procedure is to keep a large needle in a cork, sterilize over a flame and pierce the hole if necessary so thjat the milk will flow freely. Normally the baby should get his full'feeding in ten or fiffteen minutes, and even" in a shorter time. A normal baby cries because it is uncomfortable or hungry and a mother should never hesitate to pick up her crying baby and coddle it. With much commojj sense and judicious affection, a new baby will take its rightful place in the home.
