AUGUST 30 Girl Scout Neighborhood meeting-K of C hall-9:30 a.m. The journals written by students in a McHenry County college course, "Studies About Women" are being compiled into a book by MCC Instructor Mary Kurtzman. The journals include com­ ments by the students on how their own life experiences related to their studies in the course. "In women's studies, students can also be experts. These student writings are so incisive and well written that they add a new dimension to the subject matter," ,Ms. Kurtz- man explains. The course, which was of­ fered for the first time last year, Combines teaching material from many fields i n c l u d i n g p s y c h o l o g y , economics, art and law as well as others. It is being offered again during the fall semester on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 to 12:30 at MCC. Ms. Kurtzman said the new course turned out to be a real mixture. "The course is pessimistic, useful and op­ timistic all at once," she said. "It is pessimistic because we study the statistical picture of the" difficulties women now have. We learned that one out " Mo of two marriages ends in divorce, that few women receive much alimony or child support, and that divorced women are forced into a discriminatory job market when they have few skills and little earning power to support themselves and their children," said Kurtzman. "Married women too are being forced by inflation to work to help support the family. The official poverty level for a family of four in a city is now $6,800 annual in­ come, yet the average full-time woman worker earns only $7,500. The women's situation is also worsening because in 1955 women earned 64 percent of what men earned, but in 1978 women earned only 57 percent as much as men did," Ms. Kurtzman continued. "As a result," she said, "women are returning to college in large numbers, partly to learn job skills in order to survive. That's where the usefulness of this course comes in-we study how to choose a career, how to get credit, how to get sound legal advice. We study the history of worn en and find strong role models for today's woman. Students in the class, both men and women shared their own experiences and find new strength and courage to cope with today's world." "But", Ms. Kurtzman adds, "it is also a very optimistic course because it lets us see a new side of 'mankind'. Philosophers, historians, and great writers often have bemoaned the 'nature of man'. They have found aggression, brutality, competitiveness and war to be extremely widespread throughout history and have concluded that there is little hope for a better future. Yet in this course, we discover that such generalizations seldom take into account the activities of half the human race-women, who spend a large amount of their time nurturing children, cooperating with their families, and serving others. We conclude that if women's activities are not undervalued and overlooked, we can make a much more optimistic statement about the nature of human beings, and thus believe in the possibility of a mueh better feture • for children and the world." •» \» • T .SEPTEMBER 26 N.C.S.F luncheon matinee at Shady Lane. and Date Set For Benet Lake Chicketi Barbecue Sunday, Aug. 19. is the date set for this year's Chicken Bar- B-Que dinner, given to bolster t h e b u i l d i n g f u n d o f t h e Benedictine Sisters of Holy Family convent.

He argued that the whole thing is a waste. "Science makes it im­ practical," he argued. "For ex­ ample, " the Senator continued, "I once spent two years learnin' how to read; then they invented talking pictures and made the whole thing unnecessary." The McHenry county Senior Citizens council will once again have two spaces in Building E at the McHenry county fair which begins on Wednesday, Aug. 1, and ends on Sunday, Aug. 5. There will be no "free" day for Seniors this year, however, there will be two days designated as Senior Citizen's days on which seniors will only be charged half price ad­ mission to the fair grounds. Senior Citizens days will be on Aug. 1 and 2. The Council booths at the fair will serve as a rest area in which seniors can stop to have a cup of coffee and enjoy some donut "holes" which have become a tradition for the organization at fair time. R e p r e s e n t a t i v e s f r o m t h e McHenry county Senior Citizens council will be on hand with information pertaining to the services provided by the council. Circuit breaker and homestead forms will be available at the booth as well as a display of photographs of the recently purchased multi­ p u r p o s e s e n i o r c e n t e r a n d nutrition project kitchen which will be ready for use early this fall. Individuals will also be able to renew their mem­ berships in < the organization and to submit ideas to the council about ways in which they can improve services to their members. Last year the Senior Citizens council held a competitive exhibit for seniors in which they were able to enter forms of needle work, foods, arts and crafts and woodworking. The council-egrets that it is unable to prdvide-the exhibit for the 1979 faijx However, because of the disappointment expressed by participants, plans are being made to return the event to the fair in 1980. Persons interested in working on developing next year's program may volunteer their services through the council office in Woodstock, or at the fair booth. The McHenry county Health department will have its booth in building D, right next door to building E. On Senior Citizens days, the nurses of the Health department will provide blood pressure screening, for seniors only, between the hours of 2 and 4 p.m. This service will only be available Aug. 1 and 2. Although the fairgrounds are open earlier, there will be no admittance to exhibition halls before 11 a.m. For further information, contact the information and referral center located in the council office at 113 Newell street, Woodstock, by calling 338-6075, 455-2660,; or for those who do not have these prefixes in their toll free calling area, the number is 1-800-892-6120.
