PG. 4, SEC. 2 - PLAINDEALER - OCT. 18, 1967 For All The Children One of the best known, "best liked and most efficient of the family of United Nations organizations, the Nobel Peace Prizewinning United Nations Children's Fund iso-itheeve of its twentyfirst anniversary. Among the agencies which aim at the improvement of economic and social conditions in the developing countries, UNICEF focuses specifically on.the needs of children. Since its inception, it has continually* increased its efforts to meet the needs of youth in a changing world. In the words of Henry R. Labouisse, executive director of the Children's fund, "It is possible for all in the I'MCEF family to take some satisfaction in the achievements of the past year and to entertain hope for a more dynamic future." ( XICHF currently assists some 500 long-range programs for needy children and mothers in 126s countries and territories. / , , CLEAN' WATER \0 LUXURY A major emphasis in recent years K'as been on the special needs of the young child, from >ie to six years old. Children of. this age are particularly vulnerable to problems of poor nutrition and disease. UMCEF-assisted programs of maternal and child health and nutrition have their major fucus on this pffo-school age group. < In the field of nutrition, UNICRF shows its concern for the outcome of the race between population and food supply in the world. Assistance to milk processing plants, com.nunity and school programs of applied nutrition and the development of new high-protein food mixtures number among the efforts UNICEF is making to o ide long-range solutions to food problems. For the , past ten years, over half of UN'ICEPs resources liave been directed toward ih* improvement of child health in the world. The attack on health problems has taken two form-;- establishment of basic health services and specific disease control campaigns. Two of ine best and most economical ways of improving child health art- the provision of ciean drinking water and mass immunization against common childhood diseases. UNICEF is currently assisting sanitation projects in over sixty countries. With its focus on long-range assistance, UNICEF has assisted some countries to improve their own laboratory facilities for the production of vaccines. In another aspect of family health, UNICEF also can assist national programs of family planning within the framework of basic health services. CHILDREN -- HIGH PRIORITY Education is a field to which UNICEF began aid early in the 1960's in the belief that the preparation of children for productive lives is a vital part of their growth. Assistance to education has increased each year since then, with UVICEF aid given in the form of funds for teacher training and equipment for schools. There is a special need to keep education close to the real life prospects of children and youth in the developing countries. This emphasis appears specifically in such projects as farm schools for young people, vocational training, and community schools that can reach parents and pre-school as well as school-ago enildren. Regional conferences on children and youth in national development have resulted in a growing awareness of the close relationship between the welfare of children and the economic and social progress of the countries in which they live. NO EXCUSE In all these efforts, there has been accomplishment in UNICEF's first twenty-one years. But the' needs of children are many times greater than any efforts naw being made to m-'ret them. In Labouisse's words, "There is no longer any excuse for the world to permit its children to go hungary in boc(y or in mind, to be deprived of the essei.^als of life - food, medical care and educational opportunities... If the challenge confronting us is to be met, even greater efiforst than in the past are required from all concerned." Such efforts will bs strengthened cooggrtaiSP of over 3.5 million irt more that! 1'3,000 communities, wlien^h^^rick ofATreat ftu- UNICEF on Haflbween.

A rural Hebron man, Duane Feuerhammer, 21, died last week of internal injuries suffered when three large logs rolled off a truck crushing his back. A comment to several alderman and Supt. Meyer after our one-sided conversation Monday evening. Why are turn arrows or no left turn signs impossible in McHenry? Your arguments are the same as those twenty years ago against one-way streets. - that is, they don't work, It will jnake businessmen mad and "What do you want to do, Make this a ghost town?" One way streets and restricted left turns work elsewhere. Why not a rio left turn from western and southern approaches to the Green-Elm intersection? You already have a turn arrow from the easterijyapproach. Would it not be possible to time the stop lights in McHer to afford a straight throu without stopping? At the pre sent time, odds are you must stop for. at least one if not all three going either direction. In Belvidere the lights are set for 5 miles per hour under the speed limit. In McHenry, its a hodge-podge now and post signs advising motorists might slow a few down. Congratulations to the Warriors and Coach Day. Misfortune in the way of injuries and lack of depth haven't evenphas- Matilda's problem can be solved by using a little medical "horse sense*'. Back pain and arthritis can often be relieved by changing your mattress or sleeping on the other side of your double bed. Maybe one leg is half an inch shorter than the other! And check the proper height of your kitchen sin'tl By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE D-586: Matilda R., aged 38, has medical worries. '•Dr. Crance," she began, "wc have a large lawn. Since I enjoy working with •iters iand shrubs, I often ySpend several hours pruning or digging and raking leaves, j "My neighbor and I gossip awhile after our work, for she is a garden enthusiast, too. "But I notice I get terrific cramps after I have been gardening. "Last night, for example, when I got up from our davenport, I almost fainted with pain. "For I hadn't taken two steps when the front of my thighs tightened and I couldn't move. '•Does this mean I am in need of more calcium in my diet?" TV CRAMPS Calcium is helpful in warding off cramps of the chronic variety. But Matilda's cramps are due to unusual muscular action, coupled with chilling and too m;ch sitting in front or TV. For example, when we use our muscles, they produce lactic acid droplets. As long as we are working steadily and our blood is circulating fast, it flushes out these tiny droplets of lactic acid. Alas, most people may pause to gossip with a neighbor after they finish such unusiial physical exercise. Then they get somewhat chilled, so their blood vessels contract and ;hus fail to flush ojt all those irritating little acid droplets. Since acid, as well as an electric spark, will cause muscles to contract, you can see why cramps are then likely to follow. That is doubly true if we sit too long, since the pressure of the chair or davenport also COM IT BRIEFS Appearing in Branch III court last week, before Judge William Gleason, James Hager of 106 Lily Lake road was fi.m j $30 and $5 costs for speeding.

It is your "Go" and desire to win that has taken you so far. The Chamber has received a number of inquiries lately into business practices. One example recently was a fast moving blacktopping organization. A $180 job became a $60 job when complained about. Thats O.K. but the two-year guarantee will be tough to enforce. Be careful of the organization that offers the more for less, Mr. and Mrs. McHenry. There are legitimate bargains of course, but they usually come from the legitimate Ipcal bus- :.,a^ . :: {> inessmah who is irififar the lo^ PUll< '• 1. If it sdunds too'good to tie true, get it down in writing. . 2. Do .yourself a l'avor and get a price from an established local businessman before tying up with an organization you've never heard of (you'll be surprised how competitive McHenry established business people are)« - / §. If in doubt, call thfe Chamber of Commerced, We will do our best to help your decision, or at feast refer you to a sitpiliar business in McHenry so you can compare What is offered. 4. When any job is completed, check carefully that the job is done as stipulated before paying the bill. It is a little like buying oatstop grade oats cost - the price comes down once they've been through the horse. e u mc "••li" • _ ' i i.r'ilmilr1i" ' ". tmlL dams up the return blood from the legs. This causes partial stagnation, which is why terrific cramps may strike us. To avoid such post-exercise cramps, immediately take a very hot bath and stay in the tub or undir the shower for an extra 5 or 10 minutes. This prolonged heat will stimulate better circulation through those muscles and flush out the acid droplets. You can thus perform unusual exercise, yet have no sore muscles next day and no cramps that night! The longest muscle'in, the body crosses diagonally the front of each thigh. It's the sartorius (tailor) muscle. When it goes into a spasm, you can almost faint with pain, though lower leg cramps and those in the arch of the foot are bad enough. If you do suffer from a severe cramp, apply a hot water bottle at once. Aspirin wlUalso help. And you women who work at the sink every day should be sure the sink is not too low, otherwise you will develop a premature senile stoop of your shoulders! Either have the sink raised, or place a thick flat board under -your dishpu to relieve the undue stooping. And straighten your back against the wall several times daily just to be sure you learn to stand erect, for stooping compresses the lungs.
