JOHN SCHOOL Organj&ation of an Audubon Junior .club in - the fourth and fifth grides of the St. John school was announced this week by Sister M. Elsa, who is the leader of the club. The purpose of the group will be to stimulate interest in nature and conservation among the students. More than 9.500,000 boys and girls have been members of the Audubon Junior clubs. Newly elected officers of the club are Carol Sompel, president; Neil Freund, vice-president; Kenneth Stilling, secretary; and Patricia Reilly, treasurer. To, give others an opportunity, officers will be , elected bi-monthly- The National Audubon society, which sponsors Audubon Junior" clubs, has sent the new unit a supply of materials which include buttons for each mem^r, colored pictures of birds, mammals and flowers, as w^ell^ as suggestions for exploring the outdoors in order to become better acquainted with "the community of living things and its importance in terms of human progress." Sister M. Elsa said, "The National Audubon society has found that until children develop an interest in birds, mammals, insects, trees, or other nature subjects, they have little interest in conservation of natural resources. It is for this reason that the society devotes a great deal of time and money to the organization of Audubon Junior clubs. These clubs were founded in 1910 with a gift; of $15,000 from Mrs. Russell Sage to the National Audubon society. She was shocked by the wide-spread slaughter of robifts that she observed during a trip through the South and decided that an organized program of nature education would offer Ijfee only real solution to the problem." During the forty-five years of their existence. Audubon. Junior clubs have expanded their scope of activities to include all branches of nature and conservation. They study plants, insects, mammals and aquatic life, as well as birds. They learn soil erosion, forest conservation and water pollution: These clubs are active in every state of the union and every province of Canada, as well as in Mexico, Alaska and Hawaii and many foreign countries. Although the more than 10,000 Audubon Junior clubs that are' in operation every year are formed primarily in individual classrofffis, there are 'also clubs 'CnTscoiit Jtroops, Camp Fire Girl groups; 4-H clubs, summer camps and religious youth groups, as well *ias in other youth organizations. The Audubon Junior club program is regarded as a valuable adjunct to the established activities of these groups. Any group of ten or more children, plus an adult leader, ni&y form a club. Many of the nation's leading naturalists and The regular meeting of the V.F.W. auxiliary was held "Monday, Sept. 26, with twenty members present.

AUXILIARY NEWS By Pat Botts • m m .11 t I ARM-CHAIR TRIP TO MEXICO ENJOYED BY GARDEN CLUB The September meeting of the McHenry Garden club turned out to be a delightful arm-chair tour through new and old sections of Mexico. Mrs. George Stilling and Mrs. j. J. Gruenfeld poured at the tea and Mrs. George B. Massey gave the colored-slide talk. The Masseys, with their three sons, John, George and Frank, have just returned from a visit to places in Mexico made familiar to them through their stay for many years in that country. Among their slides are views of new- architectural developments in Mexico, old by-ways through residential sections and close-ups of foliage and flowers to delight garden club enthusiasts. Through ' their association in the past with American embassy, the Masseys had access to places that are not jjsually visited by tourists and this personal touch gave the slide-talk an especially interesting side. Having lived in Mexico City a good portion of her life, Mrs. Massey was able to make the arm-chair tour seem quite real. The slide took the place of a fashion show, inasmuch as the items to be shown did not arrive in time. In the . course of business, members of McHenry . Gardejj| club decided to have anothef meeting outside of McHenrjfc They acce^tetfr- the invitation of jv Haeger's Pottery to visit the Dundee plant and see an butstanding flower arranger perform. The outing will begin at 11 o'clock with a specially ar-' ranged luncheon. Shop at Home and SAVE!
