The presentation of .awards to 15 rescue squads, in recognition of 36 life- saving actions, highlighted McHenry hospital's twenty- fourth anniversary dinner dance at the Hunter Country club. Each of the 36 "long-term saves" was accomplished when a particular rescue squad applied Advanced Life Support measures and saved a patient who was in imminent danger of death. "Long-term" is applied to a situation where the patient recovers and is discharged from a hospital. The rescue squads which were cited included: Cary Fire department Rescue squad; Crystal Lake Fire and Rescue department; Fox Lake Fire department Rescue squad, Fox River Grove Fire department; Harvard Rescue squad; Hebron Rescue squad; Huntley Fire department; and Johnsburg Rescue squad. Also, City of Marengo Rescue squad; McHenry Area Rescue squad; Nunda Rural Fire district; Richmond Fire-Rescue dept.; TEK ambulance service; Wonder Lake Fire Protection district; and Woodstock Rescue squad. A p p r o x i m a t e l y 2 5 0 persons joined in saluting the paramedics at the dinner dance, which was a benefit for the Mobile ICU program of McHenry County-Western Lake County, headquartered at McHenry hospital. "Our Mobile Intensive Care program is a model because of these dedicated men and woman who staff the rescue squads," said George M. Gallant, M.D., in presenting the awards. "A total of 188 paramedics are now certified and active in our area, in addition to the RECK v KREME LEMON CHOCOLATE HONEY DIPPED PLAIN OLD FASHIONED PLA/£" TWO WEEKS WORTH SAVING THIS FALL.

FRONT ST.; McHENRY la mi Dear Colleen: Dear Colleen: I am 17 years old and seriously considering suicide. It seems like everything has gone wrong for the last three years. Three years ago my parents were divorced and since then my life has just been down hill. My parents don't care about me -- nobody does. Last month my boyfriend broke up with me to go with what I thought was my best friend. I figure no one would miss me so why go on. Nothing seems to work for me no matter what I do. I know most people who write you have a question, but I'm not writing to get an answer for anything because I know the answer to my problem is me. But I haven't talked to anyone about this (there is no one to talk to) and thought I'd write to you. Thank you for listening. Down Hill Dear Down Hill Perhaps you don't expect a reply, but I'd like to give you one anyway. There are, I am sure, many people who care about you and would be deeply hurt if you took your life. But you shouldn't harm yourself to get back or get even with anyone else. Talk to your parents about your feelings. Tell them every­ thing. Maybe they have been upset with their divorce and haven't been thinking straight. By Sarah Here are more recipes for the delicious apple. Apple Fritters 8 small apples, cored and peeled Vt c sugar Juice of 1 lemon V* t grated nutmeg Cut the apples in small pieces and sprinkle with the sugar, the lemon juice and the nutmeg. Let the apples stand for Vi hour. Dip in fritter batter and fry in deep hot fat. Fritter Batter IVi c flour Vi t salt 2 t baking powder 1 egg 2A c milk Apple Ring 4 T butter or margarine 1 c firmly packed brown sugar 6 tart apples 1 fcgi 1 c white sugar 4 c boiling water 1 t vanilla extract 1 c sifted flour Vi t baking powder Salt Melt butter with brown sugar in a medium casserole. Peel, core and quarter ap­ ples. Mix thoroughly with the melted butter and sugar. Beat the egg until light, add the sugar gradually. Add boiling water and vanilla extract. Sift dour, baking powder and salt and combine with apple mixture. Pour batter over apples and bake 45 to 60 minutes in an oven 375 degrees. Serve with sweet cream or ice cream. They do care about you and they need you. Get your parents to talk to you about their div­ orce so you can understand bet­ ter. As for your boyfriend and best friend -- this has nothing to do with things not working for you. This happens to many people all the time. It hurts, but you can get over it. Make new friends and who knows, you may meet someone that will make you forget you ever had a boyfriend before. But you will never know if you aren't around to find out.
