T) he %V oViy Cli inic "Creativity In Education " Dr. Robert Boos, superintendent of District 15, had a recent article dealing with "Creativity in Education" published in The Journal of Thought. It is significant to note that this treatise was shared with District 15's staff just prior to its publication. School District 15 personnel and the community may take pride in this recognition of Dr. Boos which epitomizes his leadership role. Dr. Boos' enthusiasm for instructional excellence con­ tinually energizes the teachers and his fellow administrators. The school feels his role as a catalyst in the educational milieu provides District 15 with direction and purposeful activity so important in today's changing public school scenes. Don's case shows that stage fright attacks everybody, regardless of how many college degrees he may possess. But there are many tricks of the trade by which platform artists and speakers camouflage their nervousness.( Study this case with care and use the strategy below. By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE N-522: Don W., aged 36. is a lawyer. " Dr. Crane," he began, "my specialty is corporation law, so I am not a polished public speaker. "But I belong to a Kiwanis Club and am chairman for Ladies Night. "Stage fright overwhelms me till I shake and my hands tremble so badly I can hardly read my notes. "What can I do to appear more calm and poised when I stand up to address the group?" STAGE SECRETS Stage fright is universal, McCullom Lake Mildred Watson 385-3585 Larry Larsens Enjoy Living In Arizona From the land of sunshine and low humidity comes news from former residents, Larry and Barbara Larsen, and their two lovely children, Kristen, (3), and Beth, 1 year old. All of them are enjoying the beautiful Arizona sunshine and think it is great that they don't have to bundle up their little girls every time they want to go outside to play, at this time of year. Great, too, to be able to use their grill outdoors in January. The family formerly lived on West Fountain Lane, and are now making their home in Phoenix. They wish all a happy and prosperous New Year and hope the weather here is not too severe for us. NEWCOMER A hearty welcome to Mrs Katarina Stastny, Mrs. Stastny purchased the lovely home at 4908 West Fountain Lane. She has been here since Thanksgiving Day, and is enjoying herself and the warm welcome she has received from her neighbors, Tom and Gene Wade and Mrs. Lillian Parenti. Mrs. Stastny is formerly from Chicago. CHITTER CHATTER Miss Sue Lundy is in her last year of college and after completing her education will teach at the Waverly High School in Iowa. A reminder, vehicle tags can now be purchased from the village clerk. It is time again to think about a license for your dog. Be sure to bring the dog's rabies certificate along when you go for the dog tag. It's a must. VILLAGE BOARD The village board of trustees meet on the first and third Monday of every month. Try to attend at least one of these meetings, you'll find them interesting. Time of the meetings is 8 p.m. at the beachhouse. BIRTHDAYS Miss Debbie Lundy was 18 years old on Jan. 8.

There are a number of residents who would like to know if the persons responsible for removing the duck blinds, have made sure that there was no debris left to either float or sink into the ljike. We hope so, this could beSa hazard to the youngsters in the summer. Let's keep the lake safe for all to enjoy. Someone is burning garbage again. Please don't. There is a large fine if you are caught.

Business Letter and Report Writing 105 is a course that directs its attention to the New Concepts of Business Com­ munication. An important underlying assumption of this course is that business communication involves "exchanges" of meaning among people who deal with one another through all forms of business activity. To the businessman, few things are more practical than the ability to use words as they are meant to be used, to bring them into effective sentences, and to mold them into effective paragraphs and whole statements. Here in this course one can develop this ability. Coupled with this is the em­ phasis on the human relations approach to effective writing which is achieved through the correct consideration given each written communication in business. Gone is the deadwood, the junk, the poor planning, redundant phrasing, and in its place are the indispensable ingredients for Dynamic Communication. Classes begin Jan. 31. The course will meet from 2-3:30 LONG PRESSES PICK UP (PERMS. SMORT ONES PICK UP TOO. p.m. Tuesday and Thursday and on Wednesday evenings from 7 -10. The evening section has been set up especially for businessmen and others not able to attend during the day. Interested persons may contact Mr. Wille at McHenry' C o u n t y c o l l e g e .

If you are a singer or speaker, fasten your music or notes to a heavy piece of card­ board. Or, by all means, hold your paper in BOTH hands. Meanwhile, pull gently in op­ posite dirctions. For this opposing pull by your hands will neutralize the tremor of each one. Try it this very minute, even as you read this bit of strategy! You may still be frightened and jittery, but at least your notes will not rattle and adver­ tise your stage fright to your audience. At the start, you can also hold to the sides of the lectern or clasp your hands behind your back, squeezing them tighUy together, for this muscular effort drains off energy and thus calms you more quickly. Remember, too, that the very act of speaking will also PAGE 9- dissipate much of your pent-up nervousness, which is why you feel fairly calm by the end of 3 minutes. And you can also divert at­ tention from yourself during those crucial first 3 minutes by naming some member of the audience as you narrate a relevant story or joke con­ cerning him. For the crowd will turn its eyes to the person you are talking about and thus he will be the center of their gaze, instead of you, the speaker. Don't hold the mike in front of your mouth. It is not a telephone! It is wise to have a theme or text, even for a brief talk. Then start with an ap­ propriate quotation that epitomizes your topic. Salute the ladies by some such quote as that from W. B. Garrison, who said: "For every man who climbs to the top of the ladder of success, there is some woman who stays on the ground and steadies it for him." Or mention the old Hebrew proverb that states: "God made mothers because he couldn't be everywhere Himself." "Or Goethe's "Architecture is frozen music." At the bottom of some 200 pages in my college textbook, "Psychology Applied," you will find over 200 choice quotations P LA INDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 19, 1972 that can thus enrich your ad­ dress, so borrow a copy from your local library. To start and conclude your talk with appropriate quotations will thus add scholarly ritz and cultural distinction to it. In between the beginning and the finish, use a few actual examples that amplify your main theme, for people like specific cases, since they serve as stories and thus are usually narrative instead of ex- positional. In a longer address, as 30 minutes, you need not open with humor, since the audience will usually give you undivided attention, anyway, for the first 3 minutes, just to "size you up" and see how professional or nervous you look.

Hampton, Whittier, Ca.: When I was a child we lived in Louisville, Kentucky. There was an iron railing fence around our front yard. We were not allowed outside the fence, but we used to line up along the fence and watch the fire engines racing down the street, with the beauti ful horses almost flying We used to ride the big, red street car that passed in front of our house We would ride five miles out, which was the country and go on a picnic It was only one cent a mile' Saturday night was always something to look forward to It meant we went shopping and got a penny for an ice cone. Then we would go to a show to see the serials "The Perils of Pauline". "W S. Hart", Elmo the Great" and all those "oldies". And we just had to return the following week to find out what happened On summer evenings, neigh bors would gather at our house Mother would play the piano and everyone would sing There would always be pies, watermel ons, and coffee.
