Minnie Green, secretary to the Square Dance club, jolted the eager beavers into a pleasant awakening. She tipped them off that, buried in their work, they were overlooking fun which they should be enjoying. "Do you know," Minnie said, "that Earnest Ustman of the Chicago park system, who makes his living as a square dance caller, is a member of our club? You don't know what you're missing by not coming around." Teen-Talk "Thanks to the ladles of the auxiliary for the nice gloves they sent me at Christmas time. My sister.

The Polio Party There is more fine food in store for those who come to the Tiring squad's polio party at the Legion Hall on Jan. 31. "There, will be some of that lush -and juicy ham you all know about," Henrietta says. Girl Sronto and Archery Stephanie Waynne reported on Philip Wheelock's color slide-talk presented to six McHenry intermediate troops. In essence, the talk was a part of a national effort dedicated ;to the furthering of archery. As representative of the Northern Illini Bowmen, Mr. Wheelock talked to the Girl Scouts about a program which is designed and being executed to bring the sport to young people in sponsored groups with minimum cost to each participant. The prqject is being initiated locally by the N.I.B. "In^ Tthe foot? is pointing upward. Gendividually. Mr. Wheelock said\^}ra]jy> correction is started in the Members of the N.I.B. are IIIBO members of the National Fi^Id Archery association. They have undertaken a program where they will teach the skills of. archery to members of groups interested in serious pursuit of proficiency in the sport."- . Interestingly, Mr. Whe,elockpointed, up safety in archery hunts. "While it is true," he said, "that the bow and arrow has killed more human beings than any othrr weapon, not barring the atomic bomb, it still is safer than the gtin. No deaths were ever reported from the north woods." Mr. Wheelock's color pix gave an excellent idea of what the sport has in store. The girls enjoyed the familiar scenes about the'Howard Farms. The profusion 0/ rich autumnal hues in the scenes front the north woods brought appreciation in audible response. 5 ( The first Series "E" U.

'• - '-Vf i' • % . <V <HHfMlll IHfl 1 M 1H'» KALTH TALKS Congenital ( lab Feel When a child is born wifti dttb feet, parents are often-times the target of suspicious and unkind remarks. This is unfair and denotes ignorance and lack of knowledge, the educational committee of the Illinois State Medical Society observes in a Health Talk. A congenital deformity is one which is acquired by the individual before l^irth. While it is true that. In some rare instances, heredity iv be a factor, congenital defects, of which club feet is one, are usually attributed to improper development during the prenatal period. This is a condition over which the parents have no control. Because of this, they should certainly ^ot be censored. A cimimon congenital club foot is one where the foot is turned inward &o that the sole is pointing brfckw&nds and the inner side of first year of life so that the child will have a straight foot and ankle when he is ready to begin weight bearing. While, surgery is frequently indicated, it is not always necessary, since some cases respond to what is called over-correction. When this procedure is used, the foot is placed in an over-corrected position by application of a cast. Subsequent technics to keep the foot fn an over-corrected position Include the use of corrective sttoes and boots, or even some form of splint There are instances when, after full correction has been accomplished, a tendency toward recurrence has been noted. While the actual cause of recurrence is the contracting of fibrous tissues, it is not known why the tissue contracts in some cases and does not in others. f When this happens to (he very young child, the physician might well decide to remanipulate the foot, using plaster casts and splints as Was done in the very beginning. If the recurrence is noted in the older child, 7 or "S-years old, when the resistance of the soft tissues to over-correction Is quite strong, surgery would probably be considered. One procedure would be to cut the ligaments that hold the joints in the foot in a poor or cluTSBed condition. This permits the joints to open up so that they can be eas^y placed into the correct position and held there with a plaster cast. In healing, the defect which is made by surgery is filled in by new fibrous tissues so that' eventually the tendons and other fibrous tissues of the joints are longer than they were before the surgery. With the accomplishments today in correcting club feet, it is no longer necessary for a child born with this defect to hobble through life as a permanent cripple. There is, of course, the occasional congenital condition which will present a problem which cannot be solVed, bat the majority if recognised early and given adequate treatment can be rehabilitated to a point where the individual can lead almost if not entirely a fun, normal, active and healthy life. UTILIZE FEW SIMPLE TACTICS TO PFTOTFICT AUTO FROM ELEMENTS A dry cloth, if used in the right places, can save motorists time, inconvenience, embarrassment, -- and high blood pressure. At this time of the year when thaws and freezes are common, the Chicago Motor club points out that motorists can protect themselves and their cars from the elements by utilising these tactics: 1. During wet weather when your car has been outside in the rain wipe the inside edges of your doors at night when you arrive home. If the mercury drops over night you won't be one of the motorists who is unable to get into his car. 2. In the winter after having your car washed or after passing through a driving rain wipe your door locks dry. Better yet, lubricate them with a graphite grease. Water which trickles into the lock will be repelled so that a freeze-up can't occur. 3. Should your car fail to start in damp weather the chances are that your sparkplugs have been shorted by water seepage. Wipe the sparkplugs and connecting wires with a cloth. In most cases this should solve your dilema. One more driving hint which will prove useful involves the tise * of your emergency brake. Chicago Motor club technicians advise tfeii! instead of using the emergency - 'brake when parking your car, jm afeoald leave the car in gear and turn your wheels into the curb. This will prevent the brake shoe* . from freeslng to brake drums overnight ^ "SPEEDY" 5 by McHENRY GARAGE WM BROKER „ . SET MV ! stock; 0ROK&R? !
