PAGE 19 - PLAINDE ALEE A HELPING PAWS ANIMAL WCLFARE ASSOCIATION P.O. Box 205 • Crystal Lak«, Illinois 60014 •(815)4592641 Older children and pets. 459- 1656. By Mary Nelson A meeting of the board of directors was held Wednesday evening at 7:30 at the store office, 465 Virginia street, Crystal* Lake. Attending were board members and nine guests. Many items were on the agenda and discussed at length. It was agreed that county residents are unaware that although the central office is located in Crystal Lake, HP does service the entire county, and even Kane when called upon to do so. HP has used the Crystal Lake area because it is centrally located for the con­ venience of board members from Cary, Crystal Lake, Lake in the Hills, Woodstock and McHenry. It was further decided to give a breakdown of finances since HP is so preoccupied with making the money grow. The following totals will be for the months of June, July and to August 15, 1979. Receipts (monies brought in): $3,580.51. General operating expenses: $3,304.32. Spay and neuter refunds to individual owners after adoptions: $155. Veterinary bills paid: $1,507. As one can see, totals bills were $4,966.32. Income was $3,580.51 which left HP in the hole for $1,385.81. Upon seeing this discrepency, HP called for help. This month's report was different. With all of the, donations, HP took in $3,145.79 total for all functions. $1,585.60 came from the result of the plea. Our total bills were $1,501.62. Anyone can see that HP is still just holding its own. Some monies have not yet been recorded, and one such windfall was from the Cary Tag Day, organized and run by Sue Royal { and her group which brought in Mo the treasury $533.66. "A FASHION EXCHANGE" will be held Sunday, Oct. 7 at 2 p.m. at South grade school, 601 Golf road, Crystal Lake. There" will be an admission fee which will go to aid Helping Paws. Don't be a "Sunday Afternoon Football Widow". Instead, clean out your closet, look at last winter's clothes and bring what you don't want to our "FASHION EXCHANGE". Fashion expert Pam Kosky will be there to give you pointers on how to organize your closet, and to answer your fashion questions. You can buy, sell, trade or barter (your services could prove to be more valuable than money). This will stretch your fashion dollar, add to your wardrobe and help beat inflation. Please be there at 2 p.m. to set up your clothing. All clothing must be in good con­ dition, clean, marked with your name, size and price, Ladies' clothing and accessories only. HP would also like to bring to your attention the desperate need for more follow-up folks in all of the towns in our county. We need you to call on adopted pets and see if you can offer suggestions, help out and in general check to see that all is well. Harriet Robins felt perhaps it would be possible to have folks from many neigh­ borhoods offer their help so that when an adoption in their area came up, that person could just walk down the block to check it out. That would be great. Please call the office at 459-55641 if you would like to be a follow- up volunteer. It doesn't take much time, and really if you don't have too many, it can be a real fun job. .

FALL IS HERE It's the time of year when once again the smell of burning leaves permeates the air. Fall has come, leaves are falling and people are burning the leaves. Since the past month has been so dry that lawns, fields, etc., are all parched. Lack of rain in recent weeks has left everything bone dry. A small spark can start a raging fire. So when burning leaves, please use caution. Keep a garden hose handy. Don't leave a fire unattended. With con­ ditions such as they are, it doesn't take much to get a fire roaring out of control. CUB SCOUT PACK 454 Cub Scout pack 454 has ' started meetings and has a large number of boys this year. The pack still needs many volunteers in various capacities. If you like boys and would like to help, call Scout Master Walter Kozlowski. Mr. Kozlowski and his assistants,^ Mr. Alywardand Mr. Bean, are taking the Webelos den this year. They have the largest den in the pack. These boys are in their final year as Cub Scouts and will be working hard to advance to Boy Scouts in the spring. BIRTHDAYS This week's birthday greetings go to Antoinette Januschik, whose day is Oct. 2, Glaucoma is a serious eye disease which can lead to blindness if not detected and treated in time. Lions of Illinois foundation and the McHenry Lions club are mobilizing to help staff the Lions Mobile Glaucoma Screening unit when it arrives here Wednesday, Oct. 17, as part of a state-wide swing to offer the free screening to residents of McHenry. "We are fortunate in having the unit visit our community," said Albert DeBaets, club president. "It is estimated that more than 2 percent of the total population of Illinois residents have unsuspected glaucoma. So far, almost 8,032 people of those already screend statewide have been warned that fluid pressure in their eyes is suf­ ficiently high to warrant a complete eye examination, and finding it, in those people where it exists, is the purpose of this Raul Vallejo has his day Oct. 4. Oct. 6 is Bob Kennebeck's day. Best wishes to you all for a happy day and many more to come. ANNIVERSARIES This week's anniversary couple are Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Januschik of 4213 Hilltop lane. Their special day is Oct. 2. Best wishes for a happy day and many more happy years together. Lions health program. Many others have been assured that they are O.K." When the unit arrives, McHenry Lions and volunteers will help welcome adults wishing to take the simple, painless test, and assist the professional medical staff. Local Lions planning to help in the screening include: Ken and Bernice Sheridan, Clare and Eleanor Haerle, nurse Sharon O'Dwyer, John and Polly Licastro and George Meyer. G l a u c o m a g e n e r a l l y manifests itself in adults. Its symptoms rarely are noticed until it has advanced to a dangerous stage, although it is detectable in earlier, treatable stages. The disease is^ not inherited, but it does have a tendency to run in families. In addition to the glaucoma tests, visitors to the unit will also be able to take visual acuity tests for other eye problems which may need attention. Blood pressure tests are also offered at the unit, as well as a test for diabetes. Persons planning to be tested for diabetes should eat either one of these two meals about an hour-and-a-half before visiting the Lions unit: A sandwich meal consisting of two slices of bread with at least one slice of meat or cheese, one piece of pie or cake, coffee or tea with sugar, or WEDNESDAY.

However, President DeBaetp reminds those who already known that they have diabetes or high blood pressure that therfc is no need to be tested by the, Lions unit.
