No Special
Skill Needed
Your swimming companion
finds himself in water too deep
for him. He can't stay afloat.
He goes under . . . but rescuers reach him quickly and pull
him into their boat, You climb
in, too.
What would you do?
"Start artificial respiration at
once," advises thjb National
Safety Council,
"The mouth-to-mouth method
has the advantage of providing
'immediate pressure to' inflate the
victim's lungs. And it enables
the rescuer to get more accurate4
information on the volume, pressure and timing of efforts needed to inflate the victim's lungs'
than are afforded by other methods," say experts on artificial
respiration.
When should you use artifi*
cial respiration?.
"Anytime someone stops;
breathing ... because of electric
shock, suffocation in a discarded
refrigerator or in a plastic bag,
or a near-drowning," said Ralph
Kuhli, the Council's director of
public safety.
Here is how you can perform
the life-saving mouth-to-mouth
artificial respiration, he said:
1. Wipe out foreign matter in
the mouth with your fingers or
a cloth wrapped around them.
2. Tilt the victim's head back
so the chin is pointing upward*
Pull or push the jaw into a jut*
ting-out position.
These maneuvers should re-
lieve obstruction of. the air passage by moving the base of the
tongue away from the back of
the throat.
3. lOgeft your mouth wide sind
place it tightly over the victim's
mouth. At the same time, pinch
the .victim'^, nostrils shut Then
breathe air ... at a normal rate
. . • into the victim.
4. Remove, your mouth, turn
your head io the side, and listen
for air coming out Repeat, the
blowing   effort.    ,
For an adult, blow about 12
breaths a minute. For, a child
brda'the']mofesoMy-,1.,. abdUt,20'
times'a; minute     •*, ..   ,'? .' j.
"This, basically, is how to apply mouth-to-mouth artificial
respiration," said Kuhli.
'9Mb special'skills are* involved.
Anyone . . . even children . , .
can learn how to save lives
througn use of mouth-to-mouth

A few days of occupancy in
the new St, Henry's Parochial
School before the end of the
£efm on May 25 marked the inauguration of the enlarged and
modernized school between Clare
and Rosebush.
- One hundred and seventy pupils from the St. Henry's and St-
Charles' parishes attend the

of the enrollment coming from
Leaton. '
In the program of renovation
at the community now nearing
completion, the parish membership has accomplished a remodeling and enlargement of the
school, extensive redecorating
and remodeling of the church
building both inside and out, and
modernization of the convent.
Attractive landscaping of the
school grounds is scheduled ior
this summer,
Students at St Henry's next
fall will begin classes in the finest classroom surroundings ever
offered in the long history of the
school.' •....."-
These most recent forward
strides have 'been a successful
achievement, under . the drecton
of the parish priest, Rev. John
W. McGee, pastor there since
April 1957.
, In a' published History of St
Henry's, an account is given of
the opening in 1915 of the school,
It was known then as St Hen*
ry's Academy.
Economic reasons forced a
closing of the school from 1934
until 1946, but it has marked a
steady rise in enrollment since
its re-opening. An expected jump
in student enrollment is to be
adequately met by the new enlargement program,
Since 1946 the school has been
under the care of the School Sisters of Notre Dame with their
motherhouse in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Present faculty members are
Sister M, BernO, principal, and
Sister Adolphe, Sister Dorothea,
and Sister Stephanie, teachers.
The Notre Dame Sisters aire

teaching and scholastic attainments.
The new one-story addition to
the school contains large classrooms with immense Windows

of Clare.' •"    *-'
The contest was held* at the
Dow Science Building at Alma
College from 10 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Mrs.'Wiicoxhas been on the
teaching staff at the National
Dance Students Association
dance and baton twirling clinic
at Alma College this year. She
taught advanced ballet, advanced
tap dancing and intermediate
ballet. Classes were * held from
9:00 to 5:00-p-m." daftly for nearly
200 students who were attending
from several states along with
Michigan.
The clinic is directed by R. E.
Rufener, music professor from
Alma College and Mary Evelyn
Thurma, national baton twirling
champion. %his was the second
year Joanne was on the faculty.
Spacious rooms pf the- new addition to St. Henry's school six miles south of- Clare offer
the most modern surroundings for 170 students who are regularly enrolled there. Daylight from floor-io-ceiling glass is reflected off handsome light wood cabinet paneling
and beam-supported white ceilings. Floors are of polished iile and partitions are
blocks painted in decorator colors. The fireproof addition is part of the parish's recent
improvement program costing over $85,000. Sentinel Photo
little sacristy was set up; a sort
of cork flooring was laid, chairs
were provided, and a hot water
boiler with radiators installed.
Weddings and funerals, Sunday
Masses, baptisms and confirmations — all were held in this improvised church.
The cost of building the exterior structure had left a large
debt On the little parish; the
setbacks in the rural economy
during the late "twenties" were
followed by the depression of
1929. During several of these
"depression years" income would
be down to less than ?2500 — so
it was that the Church proper
had to remain Unfinished Until
1941.
But now the remodeling and
redecorating project has result-
ad in a more beautiful and modern church interior, — and a
safe, handsome exterior,
Inside, the walls have been redone In blond wood paneling to
form a beautiful background for
the set Of Stations which adorn
the spaces between stained glass
windows,
The church's appearance outside has been changed by the

Gleaming light tile floors and
modern light-wood walls and
furniture* made - the facilities
cheerful and inviting. Partitions
are decorated building block construction.
Supply cupboards, cabinets
and display shelves make efficient use of available wall space.
As proud and gratified at the
modern appearance of the redecorated church as in the
school, St. Henry's parishioners
are worshipping in a building
that has a 37-year history of
labor and; sacrifice,
Iri the spring of 1923 Bishop
Kelly, came to Vernon for the
laying of the cornerstone for the
"new" St.L Henry's. The original
wooden church erected in 1887
had been destroyed by fire.
The building program was beset byr the hard times of the
"twenties!' ' however, and " for
eighteen' years the church stood
with', ad. oufer shell, but unfinished inside.' What work had
been done was accomplished
with volunteer labor by men of
the parish.

was announced Sunday, June 26
at all Masses in both parishes by
Rev. Fr. JOhn W- McGee, pastor
and honorary chairman of the
drive.
"The Development Fund
Drive," stated Fr. McGee, "is being, initiated in order to raise
funds to help defray, at least in
part, the cost of the work that
has been done to expand the
present school facilities and
beautify the interior and exterior-of the church.        u. ^
"The debt incurred by the parish is approximately $85,000.00."
The Campaign directed by
John V. McCarthy and Associates, Catholic Financial Consultants of Detroit, will consist
of a Memorial Gift phase until
July 18th, followed by the general phase which will begin with
the Solemn Opening Ceremonies
held in St. Henry's Church,

Primer Describes North Michigan Fishing As "Easy Fun From Pole To Pan"
' \t If you've been searching for a
sport that is easy to master,
easy to reach and easy on the
pocketbook, look ho farther than
the nearest lake.
It's almost -certain, to offer
warm-water fishing — an. easy
Sport from pole to pan. Bluegills,
' sunfish,. crappies, rock-bass and
perch are Michigan's warm-
water species. They are also
commonly called panfish.
A few general pointers on
where, when and how' to catch
'em, the bare essentials in fish-
j* ing gear, and a license will put
5f. the beginning angler in business. A boat is also standard
equipment, of course, but liveries are frequently available, particularly   on the better fishing
lakes, to save you the expense 'of
buying one-
The newcomer to panfishing
will find his bill of fare to be' a
bargain. With his, $2.00 license
the resident may catch fish for
these warm-water * species year
round in practically all Michigan waters, except trout lakes
and streams. Nonresidents may
either buy an annual $5.00 license or a 15-day license' for
$4.00.
You don't have to 'shell out a
lot of money for fancy equip'
ment to enjoy this sport. A cane
pole or bass-type rod' with- a
simple reel will do and practical-'
ly any type of line can bemused
With either of these. Although a
leader is not absolutely necessary, it will help your .chancer
of .catching fish. If you-plan to'
fish with live bait, a three-foot
Nylon leader of two-.to-fout
pound test will fill the bill.
Hook sizes vary with the fish
you're going.after and the type'
of bait to' be* used and- a sporting
goods dealer can guide' you in
your \feeIectioni Long-shanked
hooks are* the best1 bet when you
are using worms.
A couple of BB-sized lead sinkers should be placed about six
inches above the hook. A com'
mon cork may be used as the
bobber. It 'should be placed on
the line so that your baited hook
will be at the proper depth ^--
Where -the fishr are. A holding
net or stringer is_ a sound Invest-,
ment for keeping fish fresh.,,, ,'
.Your choice pf bait will depend
updn what you want to catch,
where you're fishing, and the
time .of day,or year: Worms are
the most consistent' fish-getters,
however, griibs, crickets, grasshoppers and- a host of other baits
often prove'reliable. Fish have a
fickle appetite and are known to
."turn on .the. worm." Live minnows work 'best fbr perch and
crappies.
Panfish live in .shallow waters
during the early part of the year
but. later, after spawning or
.when hot weather arrives, they
move.to deeper waters. They favor deep holes' in mid-slimmer,
especially arOUhdthe middle •■ of
the /day. Weeded areas -'are
am'orig the*?■ favorite -haunts;-<
Bluegills^ the, most-1 commonly*
caught fish from Michigan's inland waters; are abundant
throughout the lower peninsula
and in some * lakes above the
Straits. They are found in shallow waters -or at moderate
depths' of weedy lakes. You may
enjoy some good results if you
try fishing for bluegills in shallow* water - just before sunset
when they are feeding at the
surface. A fly rod and artificial
dry fly are customarily used for
this but a simple cane pole arid
weighted fly.can also be' effective.
*
.The sunfish prefers the same
waters and baits .as* his finny
relative,, the blue'gilL »
Rock«bass ire 'plentiful in * the
loWer peninsula,  especially ' 'ir
the larger and deeper lakes'and
southern non-trout rivers. They
are also present in some parts
of the upper peninsula- This fish
prefers the cover of underwater
boulders, brush heaps, overhanging-banks, log jams and docks.
Rock bass are often caught in 20
to 40 feet of water in deeper
lakes.
Black crappies are common in
lakes, impoundments and quiet
backwaters. They are most abundant in the southern half of the
lower peninsula but - are also
found in some northern lakes
and streams. They are a fish of
quiet and somewhat clbtidy waters',1 • .bften abundant'. in- weedy
areas.arid artificial reservoirs.
NigHf fishing for crappies   fre
quently yields good returns.
Based on numbers caught
perch rank as the most important sport fish in the northern
half of the state, in both inland
lakes and coastal waters of the
Great Lakes. They are also No.
1 on the angler's list in some of
the state's southern waters such
as Lake St Clair. Perch usually
feed in the daytime near tlie bottom. Like crappies, they run in
schools. So if you land one,
chances are you've hit the jackpot.
Cleaning fish is a simple chore
—''if it's done promptly with a
heavy, sharp knife. Scales are
scraped off from tail to head-
Leave the head and tail on, if
you prefer, or hack   them   off
after scaling. In removing entrails,, slit the underside from
gills to vent. Then clean the inside of the body cavity by rubbing it With salt or simply' washing it with cold water. Fins are
easily removed by slitting the
flesh at each side, grasping the
rear of the fin and pulling toward the head.
There are several ways to add
a flavorful touch to your, fishing
trip. For some helpful hints on
