New guests were Glenna Kessler, Carolyn Ritthaler, Judy Proffitt and Judy Vann. Receiving prizes were Penny Appleyard, and Virginia Stasiak won a candle holder. Games were also played. Live entertainment followed. Vickie Bartkus came in costume as a belly dancer. She did a fantastic job in the art of bell>.dancing.

These girls are in the fourth through the sixth grades. They really had a great time and with twelve girls it made the trip even more fun. The trip concluded at the Wauconda apple orchard with the girls having refreshments of doughnuts and apple cider.

BROWNIES The first Brownie meeting was held Oct. 2. The girls were to bring yarn and oil cloth so that they could make a sit-on, or rather a cushion to keep them off the floor. Each girl sewed her own with help from the leaders. The cushions really turned out nice. The rest of October the girls are making pictures for Halloween, and sand pictures. The Oct. 30 meeting the girls will have a Halloween party with games and refreshments. They are to come in costume.

HALLOWEEN Next week is Halloween and parents I would like to remind you to warn the children about the candy and not to eat any until they bring it home. Let them take flashlights if they plan to be out after dark. Check your radiators or hot air registers. Make sure they're not blocked by draperies or furniture. The warmed air should be free to circulate around the room. 4-h Is Sharing Every individual is different, yet they share many things in common. And 4-H young people in McHenry county are becoming more aware of shared interests through a variety of cross-cultural ac­ tivities, says Dave Plocher, McHenry county Extension adviser. 4-H members may par­ ticipate in a rural-urban con­ ference, an interstate or inter- county exchange, an in­ ternational exchange, or the 4- H people-to-people activity. These activities show that young people from different backgrounds can work together to develop their own identities and feelings of self-esteem. By sharing experiences, the participants learn to reach out to others. These relationships provide greater opportunities for young people to make the successful transition to adulthood, says Plocher. > , During a recent rural-urban conference, participants ex­ pressed the fear of the unknown about another person as one of the greatest blocks to developing mature attitudes toward a meaningful relationships with others. One white teen-ager said. "I'm just afraid of them," while a black youth stated, "whites hate blacks." A Latino youth said, "I don't speak funny; you just don't listen to me." Such openness and honesty will surely lead to better un­ derstanding, reports Plocher.

Main St. 385-7661 Behind-the-ear AID j. Reg. $239 199 By Mary Kicnards "Buf'I thought David had all his shots," Mrs. JdHnson said when the doctor told her that her eight-year-old son had mumps. No...he never got thfe mumps vaccine," the doctor said, looking through his files. Even so, David was lucky. He was uncomfortable, he felt sick for several days and missed some school, but he didn't have any of the serious com­ plications that can accompany mumps. David's story is not unusual...in fact, it is repeated frequently throughout Illinois. But, sometimes, the ending is a lot mfcre serious. Like David, many children miss out on one or rtjore of their vac­ cinations... vaccinations that would protect them against childhood diseases. As a result,, some will die. Others will be brain damaged, or deaf, or badly crippled. Still others, like David, will get by with only the symptoms of the disease and escape the more serious consequences. Why do so many children miss out on the vaccinations that could protect them against disease? There are many ex­ planations. In some cases, the child misses a doctor's ap­ pointment for some reason, and the scheduled vaccination is forgotten. In others, the parents misunderstand the immunization schedule and mistakenly believe that the child has received all the vaccinations. Most often, however, it is a simple matter of neglect...- parents just don't bother to have the child vaccinated, or fail to complete a series of shots once they have been started. People forget...it's human nature. When there were many, many cases of diseases such as polio, diphtheria, tetanus, whooping cough, mumps and measles, people made sure their children were protected. But, after the vaccines were widely used and the diseases subsided, people became less concerned. They just assumed there was no further reason to worry. This is a dangerous assumption. It has resulted in a steady drop in the percentages , of immunized children. The percentages have dropped so low, in fact, that health officials say we once again face a serious risk of epidemics. What can be done about it? The answer is ob­ vious...vaccinate the children. Parents of unvaccinated children, especially pre­ schoolers, should have their children immunized as soon as y possible. If you're not sure whether your children are fully immunized, check with your doctor. Children should not remain unvaccinated. The risk is simply too great. If you want more information about immunization, contact: Illinois Department of Public Health, Immunization Program, 535 West Jefferson Street, Springfield, 111., 62761. Promotion For Professor Son Of Area Couple Word has been received that Dr. Wendel J. Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Roy C. Johnson of Whispering Oaks, has received a promotion to associate professor with tenure from the University of Wisconsin. Dr. Johnson has been teaching Biology and related subjects at the Marinette, Wis., center for the past six years. He attended Wright Jr. college in Chicago, received his B.S. and M.S. degrees in Zoology from Michigan State university and his Ph.D. from Purdue university in West Lafayette, Ind. PAGE 17 - PLAINDEAl.KK-i mDAV, OCTOBER 24, 1975 An inter-state or inter-county exchange is not merely a visit or an opportunity to travel and see points of interest outside one's home community, says Plocher. Such an exchange is a total learning experience. In meeting, working, playing, and living with youth in other communities, the 4-H par­ ticipant has many op­ portunities to grow and develop, continues Dave. And through the In­ ternational 4-H Youth Ex­ change and other international programs, more than 350 young people from Illinois have had the opportunity to travel and live with host families in seventy foreign countries. In addition, more than 300 ex­ changees from other nations have stayed in 1,240 Illinois homes. It's antifreeze time for your car. Get a tuneup, too -- it could save you about 10 percent in gasoline costs.

He has had the distinction of speaking at the U. of I. on several occasions, and was a featured speaker at the sixty-sixth annual meeting of the American society of Agronomy held in Chicago last November. He has recently co-authored two research papers with Dr. A.J. Turgeon of the U. of I. on "Vegetatively Establishing Kentucky Bluegrass."

If you are such a person, you know that plans are involved, often difficult ones. Usually we use the drawing board before we start building. Making plans may be called foresight or looking ahead -- and we all know that this is necessary whether building an object or building your life. As you make plans for the future, don't overlook one of the most effective and time-honored aids in building a strong character -- your church! Like millions before you, you may find just what you need to make your plans succeed. Achieve success? This is what we all want and what we plan for.
