Mrs. Beddow reviewed Harry Edward Neal's book, "Hallelujah Army," describing with many stories the army's program of rehabilitating persons and giving them back their dignity when no one else will touch them. The Salvation Army grew out of the work of one Englishman, William Booth, back in the year 1865. Until his death, Booth and three of his eight children were the guiding force behind this movement. A Simpler Worship Booth, brought up in the ment centers, hospitals, clinics, homes for unwed mothers, children's homes and even publishes magazines and newspapers.

The Salvation Army, Mrs. Beddow said, came to the United States in 1880 and to Freeport only four years later in 1884. She explanied how the money collected here at Christmastime, in the familiary black kettle, is used for the purchase of food and only food. She told how the articles that are collected are repaired and resold to low income families. Decorations in a patriotic theme were used on the luncheon tables.

Mrs. William Meyers was in charge of the tables. The luncheon is a monthly feature of the Adult Program Committee of the YW of which Mrs. John F. Hartog is chairman.

Miss Ellen Hartman, daughter of Mrs. Glenn Spencer, 69 N. Westwood Drive, has pledged Pi Beta Phi, social sorority, at the University of Illinois. Miss Laurel J. Toelle has pledged Kappa Kappa Gamma, social sorority, at the University of Illinois.

He liked the simpler, freer type of worship, accented by vocal interpolations of "Hallelujah" and "Amen" and the offering of spontaneous prayers. Those attending the program heard how the army grew from a small band in England preaching in empty tents, theaters and bars to the great international organization it is now on its 100th anniversary.

On Brain Injury Seminars were on variou: inds of brain deficiency and rain injury, how it can be measured, how it can be treat surgically or by nonsurgery ehabilitation treatment after rain accident or surgery, anc pplication of the same non urgical procedures to learning By OLGA GIZE CARLILE Journal-Standard Society Editor A spring of crisp lines and pure ungimmicked prettiness was forecast at the annual spring style show of Junior Women's Guild Thursday evening at Douglas School. It was as if the spring winds moved into Freeport from England. The longer jackets, the swinging skirts, crisp white collars lining Chelsea collars, bows, bows and more bows, the houndstooth check and tattersall from Ruhl's illustrated the British look. More than watched models 325 persons show clothes for "people on the go." They walked through "a window of spring" curtained in pink and tied back with flowers. White shutters and a pink TV camera, for station WJWG (W plus Junior Women's Guild), completed the setting.

Provocative Cover-Up For fun in the sun, the two- piece bathing suit is back in favor. An Americana number in red, white and blue, made of fast-drying nylon, was topped with a matching nylon parka, and a shocking pink swim suit, with flattering V-neck at front and back was suggested for "Many figure types." The new designer's touch in swimwear this season, the see- through or fish net idea, was highlighted by a black bikini provocatively covered up with a black chiffon overblouse. The audience was assured that "They're selling very fast in the Southern states and California now! A cotton twill skirt in beige with a zip of the zipper was transformed into a culotte for active sports. A dark brown Batik print blouse was perfect foil tor this. i In checks, plaids and solids the spring look in separates appeals and has a fresh casualness.

They are easy on wrinkles and versatile in changing wardrobes. There was a Bermuda- length solid gored skirt blending a plaid vest and sleeveless top in soft muted mint green. Blazer jackets, usually piped in white or navy, were shown by a number of models with match- ink skirts and lurtleneck slipover sweaters. These came in solids, checks or plaids. Among the crisp collection of separates, there was also the "stretch" story.

Stretch gabardine in a short outfit, stretch in a blazer and straight skirt, in a casual skirt and T-top topped with a cardigan sweater. The stretch fabric is attractive. Prints Flash Through One interesting brown and white culotte dress had a purse attached xo a narrow brown belt at the back. Prints are back and they flashed through the style show in bright pink and turquoise and also the more subdued brown and beige on white. The suits for spring snare the eye.

Some are two-piece and others with a matching shell over- blouse give the suit the costume look. Without the jacket, the shell and skirt form a basic dress. Narrow Coats A three-piece linen suit in white was piped in navy, another with a double-breasted jacket was collared and cuffed in white. The textured fabric in a multi- tweed in blue and green three- piece suit also made it a striking costume for many occasions. Fineboned and narrow coats for spring have slick as a whistle tailoring.

The British wow of was the Chelsea collared coat in menswear gray flannel with white tie. Crochet trim around collar and cuff of a white aasketweave wool new sliver of a coat gave it the "My Fair Lady" look. Skimmy little dresses, some with Chelsea collars, others with skinny belts, boasted the new pale colors so good for spring 1965. The show concluded with the showing of a long pencil slim Empire gown of turquoise georgette over taffeta. Boys Varsity Singers Emcees for the "Styles and Smiles" show were Mrs.

Ben nett Underbill and Mrs. Quen tin Valkema. The welcome was by Mrs. Don McLean, presiden of Junior Women's Guild. Interspersed with the showing of fashions on Thursday eve ning was entertainment by th Boys Varsity Singers.

By BARRY SCHWEID WASHINGTON (AP) "Birthdays," says Hugo L. Black, "are very nice things to have had." Saturday the justice will have his 79th, but he isn't planning a celebration. "And there will be none if I can help it," he said Thursday. Not even a birthday cake? "I don't like cake," the justice said firmly. But if the weather is warm and dry, it is reasonably safe to assume that Justice Black will be playing tennis on the clay court behind his house in Alexandria, Va.

For while Black doesn't have time for hobbies, tennis is an exception. He plays every chance he gets. Health Excellent The justice's health is excellent, his attendance record gives his office staff something to shoot at and his brisk work pace removes any doubt that he intends to stay on the bench. In any event, if Black were thinking of retirement he wouldn't have appointed the two YWCA News Y-Effes Y-Ettes Club members visited Stephenson County Historical Museum Thursday afternoon. Plans for a party on March 12 were discussed at a business meeting which preceded the tour.

On Body Toning Mrs. Kenneth Wiegand told members of the So-Hi Club at the YWCA about the importance of body toning. She mentioned that good posture, calisthenics and isometrics are all essential. "Remember girls," she said, "exercise may not add years to your life, but will add life to your years."

Black's 27 years on the court make him the senior justice in point of service. As such, he sit; the immediate right of the justice, Earl Warren. Black's decisions over 27 'ears are especially marked in heir defense of human rights and the Bill of Rights. Because he believes the courl ihould take an active role in protecting the individual against excesses of the he has come to be known popularly as "judicial activist." Close To Frankfurter For years he was in the minority. But he has seen many his dissents become law, a process speeded by the retiremen 1962 of his colleague and judicial adversary since 1939, Feli: Frankfurter.

Because of their 23 years to jether on the court "we were sound to be close," Black saic Thursday. Frankfurter died Monday aft ernoon.

That friendship and ac miration continued up to th time of his death.

"His great mind, his impas sioned love of his country, it laws and its democratic ideals all contributed to make him on of the most useful public men his generation. "He will be greatly missed."

He told about the "brain shunt," the miracle operation which has transformed 25,000 handicapped infants born with water on the brain to norma babies.

To date, 25,000 of the world's hildren with this formerly atal handicap have now been estored to normal life through he "shunt" operation. Pioneering Work All the findings on treating earning difficulties through the individual's neuro- ogical organization are still entative, Dr. Delacato stressed. His group have pioneered in attempting to stimulate the brain by sensory impulses, hrough imposing "patterned 1 movements on severely retarded or brain-injured children.

They hope he stressed are going to find hat there are few deficient individuals who could not be helped somewhat by this method. Failures; Successes Dr. Delacato stresses that hey have had many besides some startling successes. Their best work has been with those not much over 16 vears. People are flocking to the Philadelphia institutes, and calls are coming in from all over the world, because here is an approach which gets some Dr.

Delacato emphasizes 'some" results in a fielc in which so little hope has existed. The waiting list for evaluation is so long that a chile could be born today and no admitted until age 10, Dr Ponitz was told. Much Skepticism Dr. Delacato is entirely aware that there is much pro fessional skepticism about method. It has not yet been endorsee by any medical or educationa professional society.

The Delacato-Doman "pat tern" exercises can be used a physical education, and manj private schools are doing thi: in the way that St. Thoma Aquinas School in Freeport i doing, to gain every possibl advantage for learning skill the method may yield. Dr. Ponitz said he went get information to pass on the local school staff, and review the experience with th principals on Monday. Wanted To See He thought he was fortunat in haying the opportunity.

"This was something I wantec to see for myself. "It seems entirely possibl that school systems may sending special education teachers to the Philadelphia center for training when it becomes clearer how much it has to offer for a school program.
