Although the weather outside was not too cheery, it did not dampen our spirits. The performance on the ice, including the acts by Peggy Fleming, were beautifully and artistically executed. Probably the favorites to all were the difficult tricks performed in the comedy acts by Snoopy and the clowns. This trip was a treat for the girls because of the most successful work completed on our ecology project of collec­ ting glass inihe McHenry area. We have all those who donated to our project to thank for helping us view the ice show. We are glad we were able to have such a good time and see such a nice program. Scribe McHENRY UNIT 491 By Pearl Cooper Mrs. Marion Alford, auxiliary Loan and Scholarship chairman of McHenry Unit 491, American Legion auxiliary has announced that the McHenry Post 491 and auxiliary once again coordinated plans with the schools and other organizations in planning the activities during National be a gala event, plus the added attraction of a very fine dinner.

Even those who do not dance are invited to enjoy the dinner and, spend a most pleasant evening listening to the good music and visiting with friends and neigh­ bors ! r Family §ca©M® IM® ITEM: Why do some cuts of meat cost more than others? Since the greatest demand is for cuts which the carcass has in shortest supply, there cuts cost the most. For instance, only 14.1 per cent of the retail cuts from a beef carcass are the prefered broiling steaks--Porterhouse, T- bone, club and sirloin. In con­ trast, 30.9 per cent are economi­ cal round steaks, chuck roasts and steaks. Ground beef, stew meat, brisket, short ribs, flank steak, variety meats, shank, etc., make up 36 per cent. The balance consists of such roasts as rib, rump, and sirloin tip. ITEM: The most popular sau­ sage in the U.S. today is the frankfurter, developed in Frank­ furt, Germany during the 13th century. In this country the per capita consumption is over 72 franks a year. ITEM: Lamb is made from ani­ mals less than a year old. ITEM: The rate of increase in agricultural productivity in the last decade outdistanced nonfarm industry. Output per man-hour of work in agriculture increased 73 per cent, while in nonfarm indus­ try the increase was 31 per cent. Education week, which was held Oct. 24 to 30. "Need a lift?" a national publication of the American < Legion, contains information on scholarships. It is available to the local high school from the McHenry unit and can be found in the school libraries. Qualified students, who are children of veterans or veterans themselves and who are interested in obtaining loans for higher education, should read the booklet "Need a Lift?" and then contact Mrs. Alford through the McHenry unit for more information. Church Women United Church Women United- Lake Region, recently sponsored a program in observance of World Community Day. The church hall at St. Mary's in McHenry was well filled with interested persons and it is hoped that as a result of the meeting there will be action toward "Building a New Earth", which was the theme of the day. Program coordinators were Catherine Clark and Lenore Cooley who, of course, were ably assisted by many. To name them all is impossible but special recognition should be given Elaine Nell for her art work, Eleanor Pawlikowski who handled publicity, Florence Welter in the music department, featuring Donna Weichmann and Michele Reining with their original lyrics, Carri Lu Thomas and Rosemary Schneider who led the group singing, Harriet Borchardt in charge of the "coffee and", and Vera Her- drich who watched over those in the nursery. Pat Seiling, vice-president of CWU, introduced the panel of speakers from the McHenry County Defenders and too much credit cannot be given these women who are en­ thusiastic and knowledgeable in their pursuit to "Build a New Earth" by starting particularly in one's own yard, one's own community and in any in­ terested group. The names are Mrs. Robert Becker of Crystal Lake, Mrs. Richard Huml of McHenry, Mrs. Willard Hadlock of Cary, and Mrs. Wm. Carroll, Jr., of Woodstock. Another highlight of the afternoon was the on-the-spot creation of a sculpture by Hazel Ewell and Barbara Wernquist fashioned from bits and pieces of rubbish provided by those in attendance. The November business meeting will be held at the Presbyterian church in Woodstock on Thursday, Nov. 18, at 9:30 a.m. This is the last meeting for the year. Plans will be made, officers will be elected for the coming year, and further thought will be given the Spanish-speaking people in the area, a study under the direction of Mrs. Bertha Tammeus. If you are interested in Church Women United and its activities, you are welcome as well as needed in its work. Fruity Money? Land could once be bought in Bermuda for a sack of fruit.
