Genevieve Do we Named "Donor Of Year" By Goodwill Mrs. Genevieve Dowe, 412 North Front, McHenry, was named the Goodwill Abilities center "donor of the year," according to Mrs. Agnes Adams, representative, and was awarded a citation. Mrs. Dowe,was chosen by the disabled clients at Goodwill for her contributions of clothing and housewares during the past year. In this area Goodwill has served over 5,000 disabled men and women since 1936. It is expected that over 500 clients will be served during 1974. Working on the theory that "people are our most important product," non-profit Goodwill offers employment, job- training, work evaluation and adjustment, rehabilitation and counseling to all types of physically and mentally handicapped persons. Conservation Unit Buys Acquisition Options The board of trustees of the McHenry County Conservation district at the regular meeting • announced the purchase of two land acquisition options. The first of these options was purchased from Joseph and Carol T. Schwebl of Glen Ellyn, and involves a 43-acre parcel of property contiguous to and directly north of Beck's Woods. The land falls within the boundaries of the Piscasaw conservation area as established by the district trustees April 19, 1973. The property fronts on Route 173, White Oaks road and Maxon road, and is located in Section 32 of Chemung township. The 90-day option established a purchase price of $1,200 per acre and was purchased by the trustees for $750. If exercised, the option calls for a cash payment for the property before the end of the calendar year 1974. The second option was purchased from Dr. and Mrs. Emerson Kunde of Marengo, for an 80-acre tract of white oak and pine woodland located on the Marengo ridge in Section 13 of Marengo township. This is the first option purchased in the Kishwaukee conservation area as established by the trustees in 1972. The 60-day option was pur­ chased for $4,000 and provides tablished hiking.

Expect No Wool Payment For 1973 Marketings < In the 80 years that have followed the launching of the Goodwill idea, the program has grown to include 189 autonomous workshops and evaluation centers in the United States. In addition, Goodwill stores are operating in over 1,200 cities and the programs serve over 3,300 additional com­ munities. Each year Scout, school, club and community drives, spread its influence into approximately 10,000 more cities throughout the United States. The Goodwill services to the handicapped are primarily supported by donations of repairable clothing and household articles. These materials are cleaned, repaired and renovated by disabled persons, then sold in Goodwill outlet stores, to provide jobs and income for h a n d i c a p p e d w o r k e r s . Financial support pays for a d d i t i o n a l v o c a t i o n a l rehabilitation services and treatment. Since the yearly average farm price for wool is likely to be about 10 cents a pound over the incentive level of 72 cents, no wool payments will be made to growers on 1973 marketings, according to Jim Lucas, executive director of the McHenry County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation service (ASCS) office. "This is the first year since the beginning of the program, in 1955, that wool prices have been above the incentive price, and no payments will be required," Lucas said. "Wool prices leveled off in the fall after rising sharply during the early part of 1973. For instance, the national average price in November, the latest month we have a report on, was 81.4 cents a pound, compared with the March peak of 97.2 cents." Pointing out that U.S. Department of Agriculture experts say the 1974 price outlook is "somewhat hazy," ASCS farm program officials advise wool producers to keep careful records of 1974 marketings and all receipts, ssiles slips, and the like. "It's good business practice in any case, and if there should be incentive payments made on 1974 wool marketings, the documents would be necessary," Lucas said. No changes in the program requirements are anticipated. Use of wool is expected to be on the increase, considering the fuel situation, the energy- related problems with man- made fiber production, and likelihood of greater consumer demand of such items as sweaters, coats, "long johns" and other woolen and wool- blended fabrics. With prospects for fewer sheep to be shorn in 1974, national production will likely drop below the 144 million pounds of this year. Nevertheless, wool could face continued strong competition from man-made fibers. Also, wool textile activity would suffer if fuel supplies to mills were to be reduced because of the energy situation. FANTASY CASTLE - Designing fantasy castles from various kinds of paper was a recent art project under the direction of Mrs. Weichle at Edgebrook school. These fourth grade girls, from left, Kerry Kraus, Julie Peters, Marlene Meyer and Diane Doherty, are shown with the Cinderella-like castle they created complete with lily pond, bird bath and a miniature swing in a tree. for a contract to purchase over a six-year time period at a price of $2,000 per acre. The Kunde family has developed the land as a nature area with es- t r a i l s f o r and Mrs. Kunde life use of the building now located on the property. Access to the property is by easement from' Route 23. The Marengo Ridge is not only an unique geological formation in McHenry county but in the state of Illinois. The Illinois State Geological survey explains that this ridge was created by debris pushed along under the ice during the movement of a glacier about 12,000 to 14,000 years ago. When the glacier melted, forming the Kishwaukee river, this large moraine was left.
