Margaret and her husband Bruno (Bronze) have lived at their present address for about 30 years' and both their daughters were raised here. Many of you know Margaret as the librarian of the McHenry-Nunda township library-. I have had a lot of enjoyment in writing and a few headaches too. I have enjoyed talking to those who have called either to give me an item or just to ask about one I had written about. Some of the items were business, some happy and some sad, but all in all I tried to do my job. Perhaps at another time I "will once agairi be your correspondent so until then 1 hope you will call Margaret at 385-4934 with any news you fed other readers should know about or would enjoy reading.

Student Achievement Awards Special recogniiton for improvement in class work, daily attendance, service projects or academic progress is the basis of the student achievement awards at West campus. About three years ago, foriner dean of students, Gregory Johnsoh, now principal at West, originated this idea. Mr. Johnson saw the need for a non-competitive way in which to recognize students for what they were doing well, especially when they displayed some marked improvement in behavior. Whether this improvement was in the area of discipline, attendance or tardiness, Mr. Johnson felt a student should be recognized for this. . Since then, the idea has snowballed. In fact, during the first few years of the program students were awarded certificates at the end of the semester o From a few recognized individuals, the idea caught on so well that by the end of last year as many as sixty to seventy students received awards each semester. Teachers realized the value of the program and expanded it by including those students who displayed e x c e l l e n c e a n d - o r improvement in class participation, project work, and service contributions to the school. Monthly Awards This year the awards will be presented on a monthly basis. The process remains the same. A student is nominated by a teacher and at the end of the month the principal personally presents a certificate of achievement to each student nominated. What better way is there to recognize students for their contributions to school and marked improvement in work or behavior. Marionette Company To Offer Children's Show An organization for all registered nurses and licensed practical nurses in McHenry- * county is now being formed to conduct educational, social and service programs, according to Ronald Cooker, R.N., chairman of the organizing committee. "Nurses have expressed their wishes for a county-wide professional society for some * time," Cooker commented. "No* the State of Illinois is going to require nurses to take continuing education units each year in order to maintain their licenses; so there is an urgent need for an education-oriented organization. No registered nurse or licensed practical nurse should be forced to let her license lapse because she has not had the opportunity to at­ tend ongoing nursing courses. "The nurses who are organizing this association would like to invite all RN's and LPN's in this area to attend our first meeting and present their ideas for forming this society." The first meeting of the McHenry County Professional Nurses association will be held at 8 p.m. Wednesday, Sept. 21 at McHenry County college.

Person Can Do Yousuf Karsh Photographer "The camera is a means of expression. Just as you would use a pencil in your hand. I don't think of it other than what it is, a tool to express what I have to say." So says world-famous photographer Yousuf Karsh, who has used that "tool" to capture world leaders and outstanding personalities. Karsh, whose portraits in­ clude Winston Churchill, Helen Keller, Albert Schweitzer, Pope John XXIII, John Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Jr., and many others, says, "It has been my unique privilege to photograph so many men and women who are already now a part of history." Of them he says, "The great people I have photographed have so much within them­ selves that they give of themselves. There is no need to probe or question. When you have so much to offer, you dannot conceal." "I was the leftover of the Armenian Massacre," says Karsh, speaking of his own life.

However, my son, if you have to retaliate in self-defense, be sure you miss.' " ' While he hopes that no child "must pay such a price to form his character," Karsh feels his success with art and with the world's great people is the result of "the environment of the home - vital." With his "pencil of light" YouSUf Karsh has left unique records ?f unique individuals, tar him, "a privilege".

Ranging in height from thirty-six inches to forty-eight inches, the marionettes will glide across a special stage, eighteen feet in length, erected upon the permanent stage of the Opera house. Kipness, the director of this Chicago based company, worked two years with the puppet productions at the famous Kungskolm restaurant. He has also toured many years with the present company. In addition to assisting during the actual performance, Ennis is chiefly responsible for the design and execution of the many forest scenes, which provide the sylvan setting for "Hansel and Gretel", the two major characters from this venerable children's fairy tale. Sponsored by the Woodstock Fine Arts association in cooperation with the Woodstock Opera house, "Hansel and Gretel" is intended to appeal to children and adults alike. n For Valparaiso Alumni Dinner Judge Roland Herrmann of M c H e n r y , V a l p a r a i s o university Class of 1957, is serving on the committee in charge of planning the second annual Chicagoland Valparaiso university Alumni dinner, a get-together planned for Wednesday, evening, Sept. 28.
