For the past three years Sue Ross has teen known to be the question-answer lady for 4-H and many home economics queries. She came to McHenry county in June, 1969, to work as assistant Extension adviser, home economics, with the University of Illinois Cooperative Extension service. Mrs. Katharine Neumann was Extension adviser at that time. , Sue began to work in the county immediately after receiving her BS from Iowa State university in Foods and Nutrition and completing in­ ternship at the University of Chicago in Dietetics. Some of the changes Sue notes in the 4-H program are an increased number of youth involved in 4-H projects and activities and the development of a Youth council. She also notes that there are now more projects of interest to the urban youth, such as Dog Care, Cat Care, "Do Your Own Thing," Arts and Crafts, Rocketry, Photography, Woodworking, ConservationwJtabysitting and Small Engine!. Besides working with the youtb of McHenry county, Sue presented programs to the Homemakers Extension association on appetizers (Show, Share n' Tell), "What Are You Eating" (food ad­ ditives) and "Products of Illinois". Ms. Ross is returning to school this fall. She will be moving to Downers Grove to attend George Williams college, where she hopes to obtain a Master's of Social Work. \ During the past two weeks, many people J»aveT)een saying farewell, fney attended a surprise open house at the Farm Bureau building Wed­ nesday, Aug. 23, and a surprise dinner Thursday, Aug. 24 in Richmond.

As I take inventory o' me friends an' neighbors, the large percentage o' survivors 'ppear t' be women. More 'n ever, it seems Jthjfrt women fail, in their mission in life, an' reach out fer somethin' which they think '11 be more satisfy in' than rearin' the family, an' takin' care o' the men. Consequently, seems t' this ol' lady, the ladies find 'emselves wi'out enough gentlemen t' go 'round. In our society, the men try t' please the opposite sex, t' the best o' their ability, in most cases. Women seem t' know how t' twist their fellers about the little finger, so's t' speak, and keep 'em a humpin' t' acquire all the things it takes t' please 'em, an' a doin' all the little jobs t' keep 'em busy after they're relieved o' the daily job, an' come home hopin' fer a couple hours o' rest an' relaxation. It does me heart good, t' find a few o' the male sex, a wearin' the pants in the family. Give a woman an inch and she'll take a yard, in many cases. Now there's^ some mighty fine women, in this society o ours, who play the role in­ tended, an' find pleasure in keepin' a good home fer the family. I don't mean t' give all the members o' our sex, the black eye, but it takes a lot o' honest work t' turn out the right kind o' offspring, an' wi' a man jist servin' the role o' bread­ winner^ there ain't enough family t'-getherness. Many families get t' see the man o' the house so seldom, it's a pity, an' then, one day, he's gone from the scene, wi' a heart attack 'r somethin'. Sometimes I wonder, when I hear o' sad breaks 'tween a man an' woman, what hap­ pened t' spoil the romance that brought 'em t' gether in the first place. It's been surprisen t* me, many times, t' see the changes in a pretty gal, in a short time after the honeymoon. Somehow they seem t' lose the incentive t' be fetchin', and' take the feller fer granted, 'stead o' tryin't' be his inspiration. Men need women t' mollycoddle 'em an' bolster their ego. They'd live longerj seems t' me, if their women tried harder t' make 'em happy.

A little lemon juice not only enhances the flavor of meat but also acts as a tenderizer. When showering don't de­ prive yourself of the soothing effects of bath oil. Fill a squeeze bottle with your favorite bath oil and water and spray yourself generous­ ly at the end of your shower. Every once in a while we hear that pants are "out" but then we find later that they are still in. The reason for this is that the women of today find them so sensible that they are not about to stop wearing them. The shops continue to be filled with them.

Both HeUemu, Wheatland, lad.: I remember ru­ ral ministers who brought Bible teachings to life by using familiar farm experiences as illustrations. In early days a farmer used to line up stakes through the field in order to "sight" that first fur­ row. Then, looping the reins about his waist, he grasped the handles of his walking plow, and with eyes fixed on hfai markers, he plowed a straight line. When a minister quoted the scripture, "He who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is unfit for the kingdom," it was as apt as in Biblical days. Kicking cows was another point of reference, for they were notor­ ious for trying tempers and test­ ing self-control. We might hear: "Do you keep sweet when Old Bossy switches you right in the face with a tail interlaced with cockleburs? Or how about that cow tKst ftands as paUent as Job until you get the milk pail nearly full, then whammy: she kicks you off your milk stool, knocks over the pail of milk, and some of the milk goes down your shoe tops?"
