All women are invited to an evening with the McHenry Sweet Adel ines at 7:15 Tuesday, Jan. 28, at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, McHenry. The evening has been designed to entertain and to educate listeners to the art of barbershop singing. Quartets will perform to tickle the funny bone. The Happy Times Four will sing some special songs also. Barbershop harmony, feminine style, will ring out and interested persons will have the opportunity to sing along. The only cost will be the good time promised all who attend The McHenry chapter of Sweet Adelines has been a chartered organization for almost a year. Its purpose is to harmonize barbershop style and to en­ tertain the community whenever and wherever possible. The chorus is currently making plans to prepare for competition and now is the time to join. Those who enjoy guest night and like singing arc encouraged to consider membership. This type of harmony needs all voices, high^nd low (very low). The membership asks interested persons not to be the judge of whether or not her voice is needed. Hospital Services In County To Be Reviewed Memorial Hospital During this annual meeting season, one group looking ahead to a rewarding sixty-first annual meeting is the Memorial Hospital for McHenry County association. Members will gather at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Jan. 28 at a.new location, the Branded Steak House in Crystal Lake. Bert Hanson, administrator, issued a reminder for members to retxprTTheir reservations promptly in order to meet the iadline. Rewarding will be news on the continued expanding service Memorial hospital at Woodstock is providing a broadening community. Review of the data shows increased service in almost every area of responsibility. Noticeable is the public dependence on the emergency room service, which has become a continuing service with the establishment of full coverage at the emergency room by physicians, including weekends. Procedures increased from 5.962 in 1973 to 7,377 in 1974. In 1970, by comparison, the hospital had 3,420 emergency room procedures. Electrocardiograms were up--from 4,099 in 1973 to 4,767 in 1974. Also on the rise was the occupancy rate--from 73.6 per cent in 1973 to 75.7 per cent last year. This increase is with an increase in the number of beds, too - from 120 to 125 because of the completion of the remodeling in the pediatrics department which resulted in the change. One major increase is reflected in the report on the number of hours served by the Woman's auxiliary members. Hanson praised the auxiliary members for their loyalty in staffing the volunteer desk in the emergency department seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. These women are valuable assistants to regular staff members when activity arises in the emergency wing. The auxiliary had 53,051 hours of volunteer service, which includes many activities such as those associated with the Gift and Thrift shop and with the rousing Holiday Hospitality benefit. A further look at the data shows surgical procedures were up from 1,581 to 1,648; births showed an increase, 576 in 1973 and 607 in 1974; patient days of care climbed, too, from 32,281 to the 1974 total of 33,175. An annual report highlighting 1974 will be distributed at the ^annual meeting. Some by-law changes are being recommended to bring the guiding policies up-to-date. One change would give Hanson the title of executive director instead of administrator in keeping with the executive responsibilities of the position. fTen members will be elected to tbe board. Major changes include the resignation of Jack Byers, a man Who has served in majot positions of responsibility for nine of his twelve years on the board. He has been president eight years, including the past three years. Byers was first elected to the board Jan. 26, 1960, and in his second year he was elected secretary. Then came a five-year stint as president. Another long-time member leaving is Liidwig Kulovsek, Fox river Grove. He has been on the board eight years, as treasurer for the past four years. McHenry Auxiliary Jim O'Heir, trauma coordinator for the Local Trauma center at McHenry hospital, will be featured speaker when members of the auxiliary to McHenry hospital hold their annual meeting Thursday noon, Jan. 30 at the McHenry Country club. The 11:30 a.m. brunch will start a fruitful session, reviewing the year's past activities but mostly focusing on some major events just ahead. The annual fashion show will be in March. Mrs. Therese Van Buren, program chairman, said one responsibility will be to elect directors and officers at this annual meeting. Increased role of the volunteer auxiliary members in the service to hospital patients will be discussed as the community continues to count on McHenry hospital for additional health care services O'Heir will outline some of those reasons why McHenry hospital is becoming a major health care center through its emergency services, its Trauma center and its series of special programs of general interest to the community. At the auxiliary meeting, O'Heir will give a demonstration with Rescui-Annie, the lifelike person built to demonstrate life- saving techniques with. O'Heir has trained many people in the area through a series of emergency medical training programs, and rescue squads, fire departments, and others are the better for it. As a result, the safety of the community, as well as the chances for quick, accurate aid in an emergency, are much better. Some of this widespread assistance provicted by the McHenry hospital staff members will also be discussed with Auxiliary members. Mrs. John Kelsey, president the past two years, will preside during the business session. One of the new skirts but­ tons down the front and has patch pockets. Buttons are decorative and are also used on the pockets. Skirts are made" with a variety of pleats or are fash­ ioned on the A-line. Vests and sweaters top these skirts.

Country music gives you that "down home" feeling. It is laced with nostalgia and family, joy and grief. In a rootless society, country music gives you the feeling, at least, that it is still possible to go "home." The cousin of country music is what some people call country poetry. It's not great literature, but it speaks to folks where they live. From my scrapbook, I am reprinting some lines of countr/poetry that I saved as a teenager. The theme is the ultimate triumph of good. I don't know the author, but I share his words for what they may be worth to you: On the far reef the breakers Recoil in shattered foam, Yet still the sea behind the tide Urges its forces home; Its chant of triumph surges Through all the thunderous din-- The wave may break in failure, But the tide is sure to win. O mighty sea, thy message In changing spray is cast: Within God's plans of progress It matters not at last l How wide the shores of evil, How strong the reefs of sin; The wave may break in failure, But the tide is sure to win.
