Today, enlarged and remodelled, the home features tastefully decorated walls which have been admired by all who have visited the parlors. Realizing that ambulance service is an important part of the business, the Justens purchased the first ambulance used In the city.

Treatment starts with an interview with Stanley Blumberg, administrative director. At that time ne gives an outline of procedures, the modest fee necessary, gets medical history, family background, and discusses the>! prospective patient's problem. Posing for this original interview are Blumberg, facing, Mrs. Mae Stinespring of McHenry, secretary of the board of directors, and Philip Mann, school psychologist for District 10 Schools, Woodstock, The Mental Health, Center, located at 3514 W. Waukegan road, McHenry, is supported by grants from the state of Illinois, by modest fees and contributions from business and :ivic groups and interested citizens of the county. The board of directors is made up >f twenty citizens of "the county. At present it includes four physicians and County Judge James Cooney, its first president. W. H. Tammeus is its present head. The center is one of the few clinics of its type which is staffed to deal extensively with children and offer therapy to seriously disturbed young people. In treating children it is often necessary to interview parent^, grandparents living in the home, brothers and sisters, teachers and the family physician. In two years of operation only one child has been committed to a mental institution. Only high caliber staff members are retained by the Mental Health Center. Dr. David W. Buck heads the Department of Child Psychiatry at St. Luke's Presbyterian hospital in Chicago. He spends two days a week at McHenry. Dr. Salvador Martinez, psychiatric director of the Mental Health center, has a private practice in Chicago. Staff Psychologist Dr. Joshel tests patients to determine whether the problem is due to brain damage, emotional factors, mental illness or other factors. Referrals may come to the Mental Hea'th Center from the family physician, the courts, teachers, clergymen and othex*s. Often individuals seek help on their own initiative. Thirtylive former patients of mental institutions have been treated on an outpatient basis allowing them to earn a living instead of being public charges. Much time is required for treatment.

Mtuifl' & Meanderia' (Continued from Page 1) many things, for we wert starting from the very botton. as far as knowledge of actual newspaper operation was concerned. Two things stand out in our mind, however. One was use of the mallet to proof pages. Younger printters use the conventional mallet head, but Mose, with his many years of experience, told us the handle applied to the block prevented slippage. I worked so we never changed. The other lesson carried a few simple rules for the use of apostrophes, which seem to pass over the heads of school students if one is to judge by errors on mail boxes, Christmas card signatures, and almost every place where namefr are carried in the plural. We must have learned a few more things, but these alone made us look to "Mose" when we had a problem -- and we remember, there were quite a number. Even so, the rewards have left a more vivid memory which we shall carry long after we have put down ourv pen to let someone else record McHenry's history, week by week.
