Senior Citizens Centers In recent years. Senior Citi­ zens Centers have been bright­ ening the lives of older Ameri­ cans from Maine to California. Centers have received funds from such sources as the federal Older Americans Act, state ag­ encies, CETA, city and county governments--and private indi­ viduals, among others. The level of Senior Citizens Center activity achieved is usu­ ally a matter of local pride^ as activity increases, so does vol­ unteer participation. Volunteer participation--and private support--will probably become essential to the contin­ uance of Senior Citizens Center growth. Cuts in public funding will require that the Centers find new sources of revenue and The McHenry County Fair will once again feature the Miss McHenry County Pageant as its opening night attraction. The fair will open Wednesday, Aug. 4, and continue through Sunday, Aug. 10, at the fairgrounds on Woodstock's east side. "We are contacting last year's ^sponsoring com: munities to invite their participation in 1982," Don Peasley, public relations coordinator for this annual event, reported. Deadline for entry in­ tention for the 1982 Miss McHenry County Pageant has been set for Apr. 1. "By that date, we will know 1212 N.GREEN ST.0FC 8 MCHENRY, ILL 815-344-1019 WE ARE REPEATING LAST WEEKEND Not The Weather But DOLLAR DAY BARGAINS •Sweaters 35%OFF •Winter Nightwear 35%OFF plus...

Rules will be sent those organizations indicating their desire to participate. New local sponsors will be obtained if necessary. The rules, features, deadlines and procedures essentially are the same as in years past. The first Miss McHenry County was chosen in 1949 and a queen contest has been an integral part of the fair each year since. Reigning as the present Miss McHenry County is brown?haired, b r o w n - e y e d J u l i e Kuetemeyer, a vivacious University of Wisconsin junior. Julie, 20, was sponsored by the Woodstock Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Miss McHenry County entrants must be sponsored as a representative of a local community. Through the years virtually each com­ munity has been represented as the Miss McHenry County winner sometime during the fair's illustrious 33 years of providing summertime entertainment, education and recreation. History Professor Slated To Speak At B.P.W. Meeting On Jan. 25, at 7 p.m., the McHenry Business and Professional Women's club will present as its guest speaker, Elizabeth Pirman, professor of History at the College of Lake County. Miss Pirman is a graduate of Rosary college and received her Master's degree from Loyola. She has taught Modern European History, Modern American History and History of Women for the past 12 years on the college level. Professor Pirman will explore the topic "Women Who Work, A Global Per­ spective" which will com­ pare the conditions, at­ titudes and opportunities of working women in the United States with the rest of the world. Miss Pirman cites a 1980 United Nations' study which reported that while women make up one-half of the world's population, they perform two-thirds of the world's work hours. For a large percentage of women, the 16-hour day is the norm. For this work women receive only 10 percent of the world's income. And, despite all the comments about a few wealthy widows owning the world, women actually own less than one percent of the world's property! The National Federation of Business and Professional Women's clubs has recognized that as mature women re-enter the work force they may be in need of additional training and has established a scholarship foundation to assist them. McHenry B.P.W. Foun­ dation chairman Bobbi Haug has information available for women 25 years and older who wish to apply for a scholarship. The public is invited to attend the meeting which will be held at the Village Squire, McHenry. Reser­ vations for dinner may be made by calling 385-0258. RECIPE Keep The Football Fans Well-Fed new ways of doing more for less cost. It is encouraging to note that in many communities business and industry are helping to take up the slack. They are helping in several ways--by donations, grants, use of certain facilities and services, etc. Senior Citizens Centers will survive because Americans can always find a way to help them­ selves--and others. The private sector--business, industry and just plain people--may be ex­ pected to rally to the support of a program that provides meals for the home-bound and the hungry, transportation for the indigent, as well as hobbies, crafts and social activities for a large and important segment of the population.
