It was held at the Busch school April 30. Fair coordinators were delighted with the turnout. Numerous games, a moon walk, bake sale and refreshments were enjoyed by young and old alike. * The Serendipity shop tripled its business. It's reported the fair grossed $3,177.20. Ex­ penses ran a little over $1,000. This leaves a profit of between $2,000 to $2,100 for use in the schools, which is great news. The schools will submit lists of needs to a committee and the money will go for needed items. Mrs. Eleanor Crump who is the chairwoman for the fair is the one who supplied the in­ formation. All those who worked at the fair donating their time and efforts made the fair the success it was. Won't next year be a great challenge to try. and surpass this year's efforts? "In Flanders Fields the Poppies Blow"/ These words were written in 1915 by a Canadian soldier as he viewed the final resting place of thousands of young men who had fallen in the Battle of Ypres in, Belgium. • Today, that small red flower, though it be artificial, is a way of honoring the dead by helping the living. Saturday, May 14, members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the American Legion and their ladies auxiliaries will offer the people in McHenry the opportunity to wear this small flower. Volunteers will offer both the "Buddy Poppy" and the "Memo'rial Poppy". Both flowers are made by veterans in hospitals and are used as a therapy program. More than one-half of the monies collected from the sale of poppies remains in the community to meet the call from needy veterans, to provide for hosptial parties. A portion is used to maintain the nation-wide rehabilitation service of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. The Veterans of Foreign Wars pays the disabled veteran for his work in assembling the poppy, and in most cases, the money provides income for the disabled veteran to pay for the little luxuries which make hospital life more tolerable. Sometimes the poppy assembly is used as a therapy program, under direct supervision of hospital personnel, to provide exercise for fingers and hands crippled by wounds, disease or the effects of old age. The members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion ask assistance from the public in providing funds to help needy veterans both in the hospital and out. YOU AND YOUR PET By Robert L. Stear, D.V.M. Manager of Veterinary Services Norden Laboratories McHenry Highlights Diseases Anemia, osteoporosis and o- besity are three of the major nu­ tritional diseases that have a high incidence in American wom­ en. Iron and folate deficiencies are causes of most anemia. A- bout 40 per cent of all women be­ tween 20 and 50 may have some iron deficiency. The incidence of osteoporosis increases about 30 per cent after menopause Obesity is the chronic illness that most often leads to other health problems FACTS FROM McHENRY COMMUNITY HIGH SCHOOL t V.I.C.A. COMES 4 TO McHENRY The Vocational Industrial Clubs of America (V.I.C.A.) is a national youth organization made up of vocational and technical students at both the secondary and junior college level. This is the first year there has been a V.I.C.A. club at McHenry high school. At McHenry, V.I.C.A. helps provide a more complete ex­ perience for students enrolled in Cooperative Vocational Education programs, which include Distributive Education (D.E.) for students interested in Marketing careers, and other programs such as Food Service, Health Careers, Diversified Occupations, and Cooperative Work Training (C.W.T.). LOCAL STUDENTS ATTEND STATE CONFERENCE On Thursday, April 21, six students form McHenry West campus and C.W.T. Coor­ dinator Jack Tierney traveled to Springfield, for the purpose of participating in the annual Illinois vocational Industrial Clubs of America State Leadership conference. This conference enlists students from the entire state who HOURS DAILY spurgeons Save 22%.50%: This Week Only 0 m -i descend upon the Holiday Inn East to compete in various leadership and skill contests, and to elect the state officers for the coming year. The six students who participated each came home with certificates of merit. V.I.C.A. sponsor, Jack Tierney, states that "Continued participation in V.I.C.A. will allow our students increased leadership experience and broader vocational exposure. We plan to become even more involved in V.I.C.A. in the future." Earlier this fall, McHenry Community high school hosted the regional V.I.C.A. meeting at West campus. Gold accents for summer clothes are shown by using belts and other accessories of gold. Pants are slimmer this sea­ son but are worn with blousy tops. VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS •AND YOUR CAT Most cats are finicky eaters, and not surprisingly, this can lead to vitamin deficiency. Although cats can thrive on commercial pet food, they sometimes run a risk of dietary deficiency, particularly if they are going through a period of nutritional stress such as growing, nursing or can- valescing. Cats have unique dietary requirements. Nutrition studies have shown us that cats require higher amounts of protein and fat than a dog requires. And cat diets can be deficient in vitamins and minerals. For example, cats require extra amounts of vitamin A beyond what they often get in their normal diets. Since they cannot convert carotene (the orange and red pigment found in plants and in plant-eating animals which converts into vitamin A), it should be added to their diets. Vitamin A deficiency in cats can result in serious weight loss along with a weakness of the hind limbs. A deficiency of vitamin E results in a condition known as steatitis or "yellow fat disease" in which the fatty areas of the cat's body become inflamed. The cat then loses its appetite and becomes sensitive to pressure or touch. Much of the vitamin E in a normal feline diet can easily be destroyed by unsaturated fatty acids which are found mainly in diets that contain large amounts of fish oil. If your cat eats mainly a fish diet, it may need extra amounts of vitamin E. Vitamin D, which is necessary for growth and for maintaining proper calcium levels in the cat's blood, is another special vitamin need which your cat may be lacking. And cats are also prone to vitamin B6 deficiency, which results in the development of calcium deposits in the kidney and urinary tract. Scientists have found deficiency symptoms in cats for a number of other vitamins and minerals as well. These include Vitamin B, thiamine, choline, iodine, riboflavin, iron and niacin. Before putting your cat on a vitamin supplement, it's im portant to consult with your veterinarian. He can help you establish a good diet for your cat and determine if a nutritional supplement is needed. There are many types of cat vitamins available, and many of them are essentially the same as dog vitamins Other vitamins, however, are specially designed for a cat's particular needs, with higher levels of the vitamins a cat needs. Remember, a supplement is particularly important for the growing kitten, for the pregnant oc nursing mother cat, and for the older, ailing cat. It is also important for the constantly finicky eater. A flavorful supplement recom­ mended by your veterinarian should appeal to your pet - and it will offset many potential dietary deficiencies. Dr. Stear regrets that he is unable to personally answer letters from pet owners. He suggests that readers consult their own veterinarians when their pets have problems.
