t PAGE 2 -PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, MARCH 13.1974 A Displaying a gift of appreciation from the Women's auxiliary of the Family Service and Mental Health Clinic for McHenry County is Nancy Schultz, Woodstock, outgoing president of the auxiliary. The gift, a wrought iron candle holder, was presented by Barbara Powers, the newly elected president, at the annual meeting and membership brunch held in Crystal Lake. Review Mental Health Auxiliary Projects For '73 A review of the projects undertaken by the Women's auxiliary of the Family Ser­ vice and Mental Health Clinic for 1973 was given at the annual meeting. The three major projects -- Tag day, Fair Diddley and the Country Couture Luncheon and Fashion show, enabled the auxiliary to donate over $10,000 to the clinic. According to a conservative estimate, over 3,500 hours of time were given by auxiliary members. Nancy Schultz, retiring president, said, "I want to express my appreciation to the board and to the membership for their support in making this such a successful year." Officers elected by the auxiliary to serve in 1974 are Barbara Powers, Harvard, president; Joan Brown, Woodstock, first vice- president ; Barbara Johnson, McHenry, second vice- president; Sandra Dodge, Crystal Lake, recording secretary; Ronnie O'Krie, Woodstock, corresponding secretary; Rosemary Babcock, Crystal Lake, treasurer; and Leith Honning, McHenry, volunteer service chairman. 1 Those who wish to join the auxiliary but were unable to attend the meeting are asked to call Mrs. James R. (Doris) Payton, Woodstock. "We wish to encourage new memberships", said Barbara Powers. "We are also in­ terested in knowing who would like to serve on the board of directors. Enthusiasm is the only requirement." The mental health referendum, which will come before the public on March 19 was discussed by Gerald Pettera. This would provide for additional money to support the Grandma / Sez ••• * w* is cimino to Savings T'other day, I wuz a goin' on, about th' importance o' timin', an' th' way it affects our lives. A ponderin' over th' subject, th' evidence comes t' mind, that a goodly amount o' self-disciplined 's necessary, and ingredient warrantin' development, in order t' be able t' discern th' proper timin' fer ever'thin', throughout a lifetime. Many younguns grow up, these days, wi'out a knowin' th' meanin' o' initiative. In order t' take advantage o' opportune times, in life, there has t' be a certain amount o' initiative, an' it come wi' proper disciplinary measures taught by parents, an' practiced from th' cradle t' th' grave. Wi'out th' "Git-up- an-git", t' take advantage o' opportunities, when th' timin' 's right, many a young person misses out on a lifetime o' satisfyin' pursuits, an' spends years a workin' his life away in unhappy endeavor. There's a time fer ever'thin' under th' sun. A time fer work, an' a time fer play, a time fer larnin', an' a time fer applyin' th' larnin'. There's a time t' teach younguns, an' a time fer 'em t' larn fer 'emselves, but th' wise parent makes use o' th' first days o' life, t' help th' littleun t' a happier lifetime. Parents, who take an apathetic attitude toward th' importance o' discipline, at that important time, when th' first impressions 're made, actually cheat a babe of havin' a happier life. Some parents I've known, take th' attitude that th' babe's too work of the clinic and the agency which works with the mentally retarded, Pioneer center. He stressed that at the maximum levy, which would not be reached for five years or longer, citizens would pay only 3 cents a day for all mental health services. He urged people to vote "yes". Lynn Schaffer, Cary, was in charge of the annual meeting and membership brunch. Her committee consisted of Joan Brown, Woodstock; Laura Chelini, McHenry; Margaret Brinckmann, Harvard; and Julie Jessup, McHenry. young t' know, an' treat th' infant like a new toy, t' fondle, an' play wi', fergettin' that they have a responsibility fer how that youngun turns out. Th' perplexed parent, wi' a belligerent toddler, may well trace th' problem t' th' early days, when th' infant discovered how t' git th' desired attention. Th' time passes so quickly, an' behooves action on th' part o' those, in charge, t' take advantage o' it, helpin't' mould character fer a well adjusted an' happy lifetime. There jist ain't time, an' space, t' relate th' importance o' choosin' th' right time fer things. Fate has a wayr sometimes, o' affectin' th' timin' fer important decisions, an' special events. A whole lifetime may be changed jist because o' th' timin'. Mostly, it ain.'t what ye do, but th' time ye do it.

Wintz, general manager of the show. Attracting all members of the family are the colorful gardens, fountains, entertainment, and fascinating exhibits. The Chicago Horticultural Society and Botanic garden, the non­ profit organization which sponsors the show, is making it easy in these gas-shortage days for everyone to have a more- than-enjoyable time at the 1974 Chicago Flower and Garden show. For example, when mother and dad bring the children - and possibly the grandparents and other relatives - to the show, they will have their choice of four tour routes to follow. There is the Promenade, giving an overall view of the beautiful gardens and exhibits, which has a "walking time" of 30 minutes to cover; the Garden Loop Tour, called "the heart of the Show", one hour; the Median Path, showing gardens on one side and commercial exhibits on the other, one hour and a half; and the Shoppers Circuit Tour, covering a complete spectrum of shopping areas, two hours. Eacn tour route is circular, so that the family returns to the starting point after each tour, and then can proceed on1 another tour if they choose. In this way every member of the family can visit the exhibit or garden that he particularly wishes to see.
