Thursday, April 15, 1965 THE MeHENRY PLAINDEALER Section Two -- Page EXAMINE EASTER : >&•... Chester Gould--t>f Bull Valley, 1965 Easter Seal campaign chairman, and Mrs Gould, president of the Easter Seal Auxiliary of McHenry County, are shown at the Easter Seal Center in Woodstock, watching the Hausted Tractionaid being demonstrated. The equipment is for intermittent or constant cervical or pelvic traction. It replaces ,a 10-year-old cervical traction apparatus shown on the wall. "The bulk of the money donated in the Easter Seal campaign in progress until Easter Sunday, April 18, is used in McHenry county, with but 10 per cent going to the national organization for research, public education and professional consultation," said Chester Gould, campaign chairman for the 1965 Easter Seal campaign in McHenry county. Last year, local contributions made possible . 3,076 patient visits with a total of 6,759 prescribed physical therapy treatments, , and 475 examinations and lessons during summer speech clinic. Many pieces of equipment including crutches and walkers are on loan from the center's loan pool. Various pieces of expensive equipment for the therapy and speech rooms have been donated by individuals and organizations throughout the county. This has been gratefully received by the Easter Seal Society because the funds from the campaign are used to meet the running expenses of the Easter Seal Center with little left for purchase of much needed equipment. Mrs. Virginia Duddlcston, president of the McHenry County Easter Seal Society, points out that an important objective of the Easter Seal cam- *paign is to help the society find children needing rehabilitation services.

Post 491 by Mary Einspar Study of Costa Rica in the American 'Legion Auxiliary's for&ign relations program will reach its climax during April, Dorothy Diedrich, Foreign Relations chairman of McHenry Unit 491, has announced. "Each year our American Legion Auxiliary studies one of the other American Republics as part of our endeavor to promote better understanding of other countries," said Mrs. Diedrich. "This year we have found the little Central American country of Costa Rica a very interesting subject to study." Each year we make a special project of doing something for the country under study as a practical gesture of good will. Last year w e bought pumps for waterless villages in Ecuador, and the year before we built rural schools in Santa Dopiinga. This year our project is "Tools for Training" for Costa Rica. . We are purchasing kits of tools for vocational schools in Costa Rica, badly needed as this.primarily agricultural country endeavors to improve its conditions by training young pedple for other forms of work. These kits are purchased and distributed through the CARE organization. Collection of pennies at Auxiliary meetings and conferences supports the foreign relations self-help projects. These pennies add up to a surprising amount when collected by the Auxiliary's 13,000 units in all parts of the country. Last year the Auxiliary's pennies bought more than 111 water pumps for Ecuador at a cost of $125 per pump. We hope to supply the critical need for training tools in Costa Rica this year with a flood of pennies.
