A sittin* here, rockin' an' a thinkin' about the picture o' humanity, as it exists t' day, one thing stands out in me mind, relation that exists between the people an' the society in which they live. Every man, woman an' child, has certain obligations t' the society which affords 'em their livelihood, an' it behooves parents t' teach the younguns how t' contribute. Seeit)s t' this grandma, we could take example from many other countries and societies, who take great pride in their en­ vironment. In observin' the behavior o' many little ones, in our own vicinity, it comes t' notice that many seem t' have little regard fer the community, an' tend t' dispose o' anythin', from candy wrappers t' school papers, anywhere they happen t' be walkin', leavin' a trail o' stuff along the roads, in town along the streets, an' even on the floor o' the shops. It 'ppears t' me that it's important t' teach a child t' be neat an' tidy, about himself an' his environment. As I look back, when I wuz a young mama, my desire wuz t' rear the little ones so's they'd know how t' manage 'emselves in such a way as t' have happier, more orderly lives. 'Twas also, my desire that the little ones'd be the kind o' folks which others admire. Seems t' me that they turned out purty well, wi' the ability t' impart a good deal o' the theory t' their own off­ spring. A good deal o' the respon­ sibility o' bein' a good citizen, is in rear in' the youngsters to be good citizens, an' the first impression one has, o' a community, tells a story about the folks who abide there. Prideful inhabitants take enough interest in their town t' keep it clean, free o' the droppin's o' careless citizens. One thing that impressed me, years ago, wuz the clean ap­ pearance o' our town. Many times o' late, this granny has stooped an' picked up litter, an' dropped it in the receptacle standin' only a few feet away. Seems t' me that it must be carelessness on the part o' some youngster, 'cause I jist cainH visualize a grown-up o' our community committin' the act o' droppin' cigaret, gum, candy an' other wrappers in the street, on the roads o' our villages an' in the parks. A disappointin' occurrence, is t' give youngsters candy, at my door, an' later find the wrappin's strewn alongside my walk, leavin' a present o' money fer the paper boy, an' findin' the torn envelope at the roadside. Seems so sad, t' me, but mebbe I'm jist an ol' fashioned grandma. Grandma Radtke Japanese Authority To Speak At Opera House The Olympic telecasts have reawakened the public to the beauty, grace and talents of Japan. Fittingly, the Feb. 17 presentation of the Creative Living Series features Oliver Statler, the foremost authority on Japanese culture, history and art. Mr. Statler is a scholar, historian and writer with such books to his credit as "Japanese Inn", "Modern Japanese Prints: an Art Reborn" and "Shimoda Story". Prints from his "Black Ship Scrolls" executed by an unknown Japanese artisan commissioned to picture the Shimoda episode, will help illustrate Mr. Statler's lecture, "Americans in the Opening of Japan". Commodore Perry's expedition to open Japan to the world by landing at Shimoda harbor, plus the first exciting years of America's first consul- general, Townsend Harris, will be the main theme of his program. A resident of neighboring HunUey, and a graduate of the University of Chicago, Oliver Statler entered Japan as a civilian employee of the Army during the first years of the Occupation and ended as a private citizen dedicated to scholarship. He has personally collected what is probably the world's finest collection of modern Japanese creative prints, and has arranged for the sale of hundreds of other prints to museums throughout the United States. The Woodstock Fine Arts association is proud to present Mr. Statler at the Opera House Thursday at 10 a.m. Tickets may be obtained at the door, and coffee will be served in the Green room prior to the per­ formance. An evening program at 8 p.m. Thursday, March 16, will bring James Conrad, antique expert and appraiser, to the Opera House to sepak on the in­ creasingly popular subject of antiques. Jo Minds and Louise Tallman, musical artists, will be the final presentation of the Creative Living Series April 20. Young Thespians Make Appeal For Costumes It is time again for thespians of McHenry West campus high school to perform. As a follow- up of their all production, "Don't Drink The Water", the troupe will present "Street Scene", a serious drama by Elmer Rice, as their winter production. This play, to be presented Feb. 25, 26 and 27, promises to provide stirring entertainment for all who view it, as the cast of seventy por­ tray the moving drama of life in a New York tenement. Due to the recent change in organizational procedures within the high school group, the Drama club, as such, has assumed the name of Westside Players under its new con­ stitution. Enthusiasm has been most reassuring td the director and sponsor of the club, Ron Zieglowsky, West campus speech and drama teacher. Hopefully, the new organization will enable the group to develop more con- sistenUy and at the same time provide a means by which its members may become more familiar with the performing arts. However, a major problem has evolved as the production dates draw near. The late 1920 setting of the play, combined with the large cast, has produced a sizable barrier for the frantic costume committee. With little in reserve, there is not much hope that the girls of the committee will be able to outfit the entire cast and at the same time stay within the frugal budget allowed. Therefore, an appeal is being made to the residents of McHenry. The West Side Players will be sponsoring a clothing drive Saturday, Feb. 19. Cast and crew members will be going from door to door, beginning at 10 a.m. to collect any old or unwanted clothing to be discarded. The public is encouraged to help the young people of the community in this endeavor. Over 20 known battles have been fought on the Plain of Esdraelon, near Nazareth, Palestine, involving Egyptians, Assyrians, Babylonians, Gideon and his Israelites, Elijah and Jezebel, Greeks, Romans, and English. Reid Alder son. guest speaker before the McHenry Newcomers club last week, is shown with the club secretary-treasurer, Mrs. John Beam. PLAINDEALER PHOTO Newcomers Hear Guest Speaker On Helping Paws Work Reid Alderson, representing the Helping Paws organization, was present at last week's meeting of the McHenry Town and Country Newcomers club to inform members on the work of this comparatively new organization. Alderson is a youth counselor. Speaking at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, he described Helping Paws Animal Welfare association, incorporated in May of 1971, as a non-profit group which each week places about 100 stray animals in and around the McHenry area He continued, "Everyone has underestimated the magnitude of the animal problem. There is a need for a central location for the animals to be kept while awaiting placement in the various homes. We are only as successful as the funds and public support we receive". Anyone interested in sup­ plying the time, talent and-or money should call the new Crystal Lake office, 455-0566, or Alderson at 385-6228.
