PAGE 8 - PLAIXDKAI.F.K-WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 5. 1975 nounce the bigger show to come. Crocus, Glory of the Snow, Snowdrop and Winter Aconite. Those beautiful Spring- flowering bulbs must be planned and planted before the earth hardens itself against the winter cold. Select areas in your yard with good sunlight and good drainage. While some bulbs are adapted to forest type locations, most do best in full sun. Plant Bulbs Now For Bicentennial Blooms In Spring Few garden flowers are appreciated as much as spring flowering bulbs. After the long dark winter spirits will soar in '76 if you plan and plant a bulb garden in the Fall of '75. This takes a minimum of time and effort, almost forgotten until the eyes feast on the miracles of color that leap up in the Spring, says George Young, University of Illinois Extension adviser in McHenry county. Bulb varieties run the spectrum, which can be presented in the brilliant reds of tulips, fragrant blues of hyacinths, and the refreshing whites of daffodils. Begin now on your choices of the myriad of combinations of bulb flowers for the effects you want to create for the Bicen­ tennial, and do it lavishly. Consider not only tulips, daf­ fodils, hyacinths and crocus, but little bulbs that will an- hedges and shrubs. It has bell- shaped florets which peal their sweet scents across every type of garden. While it is ideal for rows along a walkway or drive, it can grace a rock garden, add drama around trees and shrubs, or keep company with tulips and daffodils. Hyacinths offer a uniform compact shape and a jubilant fragrance that makes them a double harvest of pleasure. m "MEANWHILE BACK AT THE COURTHOUSE" Prepare the soil in the planting beds thoroughly. For extra performance from your bulbs, add a pound of garden fertilizer to each 100 square feet of bed before working the soil. Plant at depths, distances apart, and planting times recommended for each kind of bulb. Maintain a winter mulch to prevent damage from alternate freezing and thawing. In colonial times, the hyacinth was the special pet of formal gardens, where its stately majesty was a fitting accent to beautifully land­ scaped grounds with sculptured PLAN FOR "MESSIAH" The Harvard Choral society, under the direction of R. Eustice Klein, announces that rehearsals will start Sunday, Nov. 30, in the First United Methodist church of Harvard for its thirty-fifth performance of Handel's "Messiah".

"Shoebox" Operation Of '32 Aids Thousands When started more than forty years ago. it was an operation that could have, and in fact did, fit in a shoebox. Now, sup­ ported by a dedicated and ef­ ficient corps of volunteers, it gives the gift of sight to many thousands of poor people around the globe every year. It's a non-profit, non- sectarian organization which has donated countless dollars worth of eye care through the years, but has never solicited any money from the public. And despite the fact that its finances are almost totally dependent upon discarded eyeglasses, broken jewelry and metal scrap, "New Eyes for the Needy" is alive and well and constantly growing at its headquarters in Short Hills, New Jersey. New Eyes was founded during the depression year of 1932 by Mrs. Arthur Terry, a volunteer at a Red Cross food depot in New York City. While working there, Mrs. Terry realized that many applicants had eyesight so bad they could not form their signatures without help. So she rounded up old eyeglasses from friends and put them in a shoebox on her desk for the poor to try on. That is how New Eyes was born and its work since then has been truly fantastic. Last year, more than 1,113,967 pairs of glasses were donated to New Eyes. Volun­ teers, mostly housewives, test and sort the glasses, with distribution following to medical missions throughout the world. The metal scrap is melted down and the money from the reclamation is used to establish funds at eighty-five hospitals in thirty-two states. The volunteers aren't too selective about the form a donation sometimes takes. Among some of the gifts the organization has gladly ac­ cepted (and turned into cash) are a silver picture frame and a 1902 sewing machine. All sorts of "people help New Eyes, too. One man on the West Coast, a diabetic amputee who is rapidly losing his sight, has established a collection center for New Eyes at his home.. Then, there is the Minnesota man who for many years has printed and distributed his "Gramps' Newsletter" for the sole purpose of spreading nfews about New Eyes. But the backbone of the operation is the marvelous corps of volunteers, drawn almost entirely from the Short Hills area. Still their efforts would be fruitless without continued public support. The "shoebox" will always have room for more glasses, discarded jewelry and old silverware.

Sturm of Wonder Lake was awarded a Fellowship of the Academy of General Dentistry at the a c a d e m y ' s c o n v o c a t i o n ceremony held during its an­ nual meeting in Chicago Oc^ 23. W During the last 14 years, only a few dentists throughout the country have achieved the AGD Fellowship, one of the highest honors that can be awarded to a member of the dental profession. The award is given in recognition of exceptional commitment to dental con­ tinuing education, and demonstrates that the recipient has made an outstanding effort to attend courses in dental science and remain current in his field for the direct benefit of his patients. ^4On Nov. 4, 1782, Capt. William Wilmot of the 2nd Mary­ land Continentals was killed near Johns Island, N.C., in what is believed to be the last incident of bloodshed by a Continental soldier in the Revolutionary War.
