CAMPING TRIP Thirteen scouts from Wonder Lake Boy Scout Troop 145 recently spent a week at Camp Napowan in Wild Rose, Wis., ac­ companied by leaders Roger Moore and Frank Jackson. They were all very grateful to Frank Jackson and Mr. and Mrs. Ed Trunk who drove them back and forth to camp; Mrs. Carol Hen- derlong who provided a vehicle to transport them; and Boy Scout Troop 157 of Mt. Prospect who assisted in transporting boys and gear when one of the Wonder Lake vehicles broke down. The boys participated in many varied activities while at camp including archery, canoeing, hiking, hor­ semanship, rowing, rifle shooting, sailing, and swimming. Several of them completed tasks which led to merit badges and skill awards. Chris DeCicco and Steve Liggett may have been observed with holes in the soles of their shoes. Each of these boys hiked 70 miles during his week at Camp Napowan, earning in the process, the following awards: camping, cooking and hiking 'skill awards; camping, cooking, and hiking merit badges, and a 50 mile patch. A big round of applause should be given to these boys for going the "extra mile" in thOT effort to progress along the scouting road. Brad Johnson took a nightly shower, much to the delight of his campmates. Brad spent many hours at the horse stables and completed all requirements necessary for the hor­ semanship merit badge. Brad also earned his hiking skill award while at camp. All of the boys went on a six hour canoe trip. Brad Johnson put into practice the life-saving skills he had learned at the Red Cross Swimming lessons spon­ sored by the Woman's club of Wonder Lake when the canoe Rich Sullivan was in capsized. The current of the river was taking Rich downstream, but thankfully, Brad was able to rescue Rich. The highlight of the canoe trip was the homemade ice cream the boys enjoyed at the end of their trip. Rich recovered quickly and completed the rest of the requirements for the canoeing merit badge. Working with Rich, and also completing all canoeing tasks, were David Jackson and Mike Johnson. While getting relief from the heat, Troy Farkas and Brian Nutter earned the swimming skill award. Mike Johnson, David Trunk, Chris DeCicco, David Jackson, Rich Sullivan, Brian Nutter, Troy Farkas, and Jimmy Carr earned the Totin Chip badge. It is necessary for every Boy Scout to earn this badge before he can carry a knife or ax. All of the scouts came home from camp with happy memories, new friends, many experiences, an eagerness for next sum­ mer's campt and much laundry for the mothers who stayed at home wondering constantly if their sons were having a good time. The answer to that question was readily apparent by the big grins on every boy's face. In addition to the badges earned at camp several boys have earned other awards. Brad Johnson has earned Theater, Woodworking, Life Saving, Athletic and Per­ sonal Fitness merit badges. Randy and Kevin Moore will receive the Personal Fitness merit badge. Also earning badges are Mike Johnson, Swimming Skill award; David Jackson, Pet Care merit badge; and David Trunk, Fishing merit badge. It is readily apparent that all the boys are working hard and progressing well in their scouting lives. If any Wonder Lake boy who has completed fifth grade or is at least 11 years old, but not yet 18, and is interested in joining this active group, call either Roger Moore or Jeff Johnson.

Beginning at 2 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 28, Ms. Sch­ wisow will take museum visitors on a trip back through American history with her slide show presentation, "If Quilts Could Talk". In addition to the slide show, Ms. Sch­ wisow likes to bring at least 20 of her own quilts to display. Due to the efforts of her great-grandmother, a Missourian, Ms. Schwisow learned to quilt at an early age. Some time later when the quilts handed down through her family began to wear out, she realized that if quilts disappeared, so would a part of this country's heritage. Out of this realization came her determination to learn all she could about quilts and to try and interest others in this pioneer tradition. Today,. Ms. Schwisow teaches quilting in an adult evening school course, designs and makes quilts, and hosts a weekly quilting bee in her home. The growing popularity of quilting makes this the perfect opportunity to learn more about this craft and also view a number of rare and unusual quilts. Besides several of the Schwisow collection, the McHenry County Historical museum also has a number of fine quilts on hand. Anyone interested in displaying a quilt at the Sept. 28 program is asked to send the following information: owner of quilt, phone number, quilt pattern and description, age or history, and area where made. Send to "Quilt Program", McHenry County Historical Society, Box 434, Union, 60180. The Sept. 28 program will also include the drawing for the beautiful Dresden Plate pattern quilt made by a number of Greenwood ladies under the supervision of Mrs. Florence Stage and Mrs. Violet Haimbaugh of Greenwood. Much of the teffort in arranging this program is due to Historical society directors, Alice Clark of Woodstock and Clara Vogel of Greenwood. The museum will be open Sunday from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. There is a small ad­ mission charge for non- members. Pink Gold ; The color of gold jewelry de­ pends on the amount and type of alloy added. For example, copper alloy added to gold gives it a pink color. CONSUMER ^CHECKLIST Figuring the cost per wear­ ing is an interesting way to decide whether or not to buy Simply garment by the number of times it is likely to be worn. For example, a light-weight jacket might be worn five days a week for three months a year for two years--or 120 times. At that rate, a $24 jacket costs 20c per wearing. By Marion Olsen Health Reporter One out of every 20 adult drinkers is an alcoholic, according to Dr. Leon A. Greenberg. Dr. Greenberg is director of research at Rutgers center of Alcohol Studies at Rutgers university. Dr. Greenberg states that over five million Americans and their families are af­ fected by problem drinking. Two problems dominate in alcohol abuse. One is the personal and social damage affecting drinkers who do so excessively. The other is the alarming amount of injury on the highways caused by a u t o m o b i l e d r i v e r s operating with impairing amounts of alcohol in their systems. The answers to alcoholism are not fully known. It has been found that the true alcoholic uses in- an item. It s easy to calculate. .oxication to with Simply divide the cost of the psychological problems. Recognition that he has a problem and family support weigh heavily in the possibility of recovery for the excessive drinker. Drinking and driving lead to at least one-half of the traffic accidents in any year. Therefore, drinking before driving becomes not only the true alcoholic's problem but the problem of the social drinker, also Knowing how much is too much is a way to avoid a traffic accident Although no two people react in exactly the same way to alcohol, each state has laws with criteria for the level of alcohol in the blood considered to impair driving ability. One or two ounces of whisky is a generally safe limit. But after ^drinking three ounces of whisky, a person weighing 140 pounds should wait one hour before driving Five ounces of whisky consumption requires four hours before the ability to drive safely returns. Heavier persons may drive sooner than those lower on the weight scale, according to Dr. Greenberg.
