Award Dinner Well Attended Jim and I, along with the George Nowaks, the Joe Josts and Mrs. Don Fail had the honor of being in attendance at the Methodist church in Ringwood last Monday to watch our children receive the annual award given by the Kiwanis Club of the Wonder Lake area. I'll tell you there were many aparent who had a lump in his throat during the course of this most impressive evening. The dinner was excellent and the program to follow Was very well organized. Some fifty persons were present on this evening which was the fifteenth annual Kiwanis award dinner. Rev. Ronald Anderson of Ringwood gave the invocation, introduced the guests and also gave a most inspiring talk. Much of what he said was directed to the eight award recipients who were seated in front at the table of honor. Each girl wore a corsage which was presented to her as she enT tered the hall and the boys hacf bouttonnaires too. The awards given to the eighth graders each year at graduations are based on seven q u a l i f i c a t i o n s . T h e y a r e ; thoughtfulness of others, leadership, courtesy, scholastic record, personal hygiene, sportsmanship and honesty. Indeed it is an honor for these young people to be chosen for this award by their teachers and classmates. The four from this area are Elaine Fail and Ted Jost of the Johnsburg Public school and Joy Hettermann and Ralph Nowak from St. John's. Lennie and Leoda Freund received congratulations from all in attendance at this meeting and dinner for planning and arranging the program. Many hours went into this evening and it did pay off. Gordon Fossum and Pat Mc- Andrews received much applause for their organ and accordion selections throughout the dinner hour and after the award presentation.

Vacationing Family Members The Emil Debrechts have been having "a ball" this past week. The reason is very good too. Their daughter, son-in-law and their three children are here from New York. Having the three little ones, Marie, Pat and Mike, have been a joy for the Debrechts. Vacations are over all too soon though, and everything must go back to normal routine. Rescue Squad Notes May 18, the Johnsburg Rescue Squad members answered a call in Kings subdivision where a resident fell in her home and suffered a possible broken ankle. She was taken by the squad to the MeHcnry hospital where she was treated This happened about 3:30 in the afternoon. At 12:25 p.m. last Sunday the members were summoned to a scene on Riverside Drive where a car had possibly blown a tire and crashed into a tree. A woman and young child were taken to the hospital by the squad ambulance. Now that the boating season is here it is time to stop and think how safe are you when you go out onto the water. You are only as safe as you make yourself. Always be certain there are life preservers on the boat at all times. NEVER, BUT NEVER, take young children into the boat without first putting a life jacket on them. Also be sure it is kept on at all times while out on the water. Anyone who does a lot of boating and would like the fundamentals of artifical respiration, please contact any of the rescue squad members. They will be more than willing to show you. This may seem like a bother to you, but it may make the difference between life and death.

SAFEGUARD YOUR HEALTH COMING--VAPOR VACCINATION Parents take heart! Dragging Junior off to the doctor for this immunization shots or boosters soon may no longer be the tearful, unpleasant task it once was thanks to a new method of "inhaling' a vaccination. This new, painless aerosol method -- currently being tried with antituberculosis vaccine at the University of Illinois Institute for Tuberculosis Research -- can safely and effectively immunize up to a dozen children at once. With this technique, the children are placed in a single room. The vaccine material is put into a portable nebulizer and pumped through tubes bored through one wall of the room, filling it with a fine, colorless spray of vaccine. The youngsters -- who may play, read or study during the process--breathe the vaporized vaccine for up to one half hour. Their lungs absorb sufficient vaccine to build effective immunity levels in the bloodstream. After the "vaccination" is completed, an exhaust fan blows out the vaccinefilled air and replaces it with normal air. Although this technique was originated a few years agb by the Russians to immunize against a fever condition called brucellosis, it was perfected for the first time this year at the University of Illinois. According to Drs. Sol Roy Rosenthal and Alonzo H. Kennelbrew of the university, vapor vaccina; tion might soon work for the entire gamut of childhood immunizations: asian flu, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, smallpox, measles and polio. "In addition to being painless, this method can be employed in school classrooms or in playrooms to eliminate altogether the traumatic experience of a visit to the doctor's office," Dr. Rosenthal declared. Aside from this nerve-sparing advantage to Mom and Dad, both doctors pointed out these medical advantages of the aerosol immunization method: * No severe pain and stiffness of the arm as frequently occurs with booster immunizations for diptheria, whooping cough and tetanus. * No more vaccination scars. * Reduced likelihood of sensitivity reactions -- such as fainting and shock -- from the injection of foreign proteins contained in the vaccines. Does the inhalation method provide any advantage over the new oral vaccines? "Medically speaking, no," admits Dr. Rosenthal, "but there is an added advantage for Junior -- no unpleasant aftertaste." The person who does his work well and diligently will not need to worry about the opinions of others^ EDDIE the EDUCATOR soys & Ctonamtei in school oxpondHwM can fa* mad* through further organization.
