Howlett announced that a charter was issued in October for a not-for-profit civic cor­ poration called McHenry County Youth Service Bureau of 3013 Oakwood, McHenry. Mrs. Martin (Dorothy) Stoffel and Mrs. Ralph (Helen) Smith of McHenry recently returned home from Louisville, Ky., where they attended the American Association of Medical Assistants convention. Approximately 1,000 medical assistants, physicians and others interested in allied health met at the Gait House, headquarters hotel, for the meeting, which carried the theme, "AAMA-Fast Track to Education." Some of the key speakers during the educational sessions were William H. Knisely, Ph- D., assistant to the chancellor for Health Affairs, who spoke on the future of health care; Dean Miller, Ph.D. physical fitness expert, national director of the Physical Fitness In­ stitute of America, Lake Tahoe, Nevada; Stanley B. Garbus, M.D., assistant professor of Medicine and Pharmacology at Louisiana State university, New Orleans, who spotlighted the growing hypertension problem and its management. At the second session, the focus was on legislation and credentialing, with John J. Fauser, Ph.D., assistant director, Department of Allied Medical Professions and Services, AMA, Chicago, acted as moderator. The third session was opened by the world-renowned hand surgeon, Harold E. Kleinert, M.D., of Louisville. He discussed "The Rheumatoid Hand," and "Replantation of Amputated Digits and Hands." The remainder of the morning was devoted to various aspects of emergency medicine. In­ cluded in this session was viewing of the dramatic AMA film, "I Love You, Frank," and a discussion of the medical assistant's role in handling office emergencies. Several other workshops were held to benefit the medical assistant both per­ sonally and professionally. These included "Issues in Nutrition," conducted by Effie Creamer, PhD., nutritionist on the staff of Eastern Kentucky university, Richmond, assisted by Sara Suttion, registered dietician, instructor at the same institution, "Com­ munications: Publications, Publicity and Correspon­ dence," arranged by James S. Judy, director of Public Relations and Advertising, and Julie Barnett, Louisville, Blue Cross-Blue Shield-Delta Dental of Kentucky; "Parliamentary Procedure," led by Marie *H. S u t h e r s , r e g i s t e r e d parliamentarian, Chicago; "Leaders Should be Speakers," led by Jerry E. Mahoney, Kentucky Medical association, Louisville. Another session which had a capacity at­ tendance was how to develop a procedure manual for the medical office. The opening of the annual meeting and the House of Delegates had AAMA president, Betty Lou Willey, presiding. At the conclusion of the meeting with the inaugural banquet Thursday evening, Miss Laura L. Lockhard, CMA- . of Akron, Ohio, assumed the presidency for 1975-76. AAMA is a national organization of 16,000 medical assistants employed by physicians in their offices. Its programs of continuing education include a cer­ tification examination offered at nearly 100 test centers throughout the country, and a guided study course available for continuing education unit credit. AAMA also collaborates with the American Medical association in evaluating educational programs for medical assistants in order to establish and maintain c u r r i c u l u m s t a n d a r d s . More and more, research shows that our ability to learn quickly and easily can be significantly expanded beyond what we were born with. But research also tells us that we must bring certain growth experiences to children before they reach the age of 5 to take advantage of this possibility. The experiences of the first few years of life, then, deter­ mine the extent to which a child will be able to profit from and enjoy freedom of opportunity in a free society. Before children can reach their full potential they must develop * certain attitudes. Children must respect lear­ ning. They need to acquire a sense of self and confidence in their own behavior. The great experience of early childhood is to find out that you are someone who counts in a very interesting world. A child's pride and pleasure in himself, his ability to relate to others, to reason, to imagine-all these are largely established characteristics by the time he first comes through the school door. Currently there are 103 ac­ credited programs. It was at this' meeting on Wednesday evening that Dorothy Stoffel was awarded her CMA-C certificate and pen. It was also at this meeting that Helen Smith missed a step on the last evening, thereby dislocating her knee and chipping a bone, and has been at home recuperating in a cast. However, she had excellent care on the spot with newly elected AAMA Advisor John L. Wright, MD, orthopedic specialist from Bloomington, 111., snapping the knee back into position.

Who should be responsible for assuring that the potential of each child is maximized? The debate over whether early childhood education should be given by an in­ stitution, by parents, or by professionals coming to the home is marked by emotional, political and, economic con­ flicts. As things stand today, however, the responsibility for pre school education is still with the parents, as the most cost-effective, practical and emotionally agreeable way to provide early childhood development services. Most early learning experiences occur in the home, where the child spends over 95 percent of his or her firsf five years. Parents are most aware of the strengths and weaknesses of their children and they have the opportunity to observe and contribute to their intellectual growth. They are the first „ teachers and are responsible for a child's ultimate physical and intellectual development. If early childhood education is the responsibility of the home, how are public educators concerned? As Edward Zigler, a former director of the Office of Child Development, has pointed out: The development of a child does not begin the day he is born - or at the age of 3 - but much earlier, during the formative years of his parents. The school's task is to assure that adults will have the education they need to raise healthy, productive children. Most important, public education can assure that parents are equipped with the kinds of skills required to maximize the intellectual growth of their preschool children. We can teach techniques to observe and analyze child behavior and ways to communicate with young children. We can build designs for creative child ac­ tivities. We can show people how to become effective parents by teaching them about child growth and development. All parents deserve the op­ portunity to enrich the in­ tellects of their children. Public education should assure the availability of this opportunity to all. Someone once said "Parents teach more than a hundred schoolmasters," but, by teaching children how to teach their children when the time comes, schoolmasters can guarantee the best possible education and can assure that freedom of opportunity will remain an active part of the American heritage. Dave Bolger Named Marauefte Student Senator David 'Bolger, a i»75 graduate of Marian Central Catholic high school, was recently named a student senator at Marquette university. He is the only fresh­ man on the twenty-seven member student government body, representing the school of business. David was the senior class valedictorian at Marian Central and also president of the National Honor society during his senior year. He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Bolger of McHenry. It's too bad that sin­ cerity is such a rare vir­ tue these days. Medical Aides Train Certificates were presented to the following employees of the McHenry Medical Group for successfully completing ten weeks of the Doctor's Assistant Training course.

STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD Eleven employees of the McHenry Medical Group have successfully completed the ten- week Doctor's Assistant Training course offered by the McHenry Medical Group. The program was conducted in conjunction with the E m e r g e n c y M e d i c a l Technicians (E.M.T.) Training program of the state of Illinois. The program emphasizes pre­ hospital care for patients. The graduates are now eligible for the National Registry as E.M.T.'s and can continue on with the advanced E.M.T. course to become paramedics. Subjects covered during the course, such as cardio­ p u l m o n a r y r e s u s c i t a t i o n , fracture and injuries, have prepared the assistants to give preliminary care to a victim until the doctor can take over. The assistants not only can use their knowledge in aiding doctors but can also apply it to community needs. Way to go ... Christmas Club Member Congratulations . . . You've earned it.
