Ada Dinney presented ways of demonstrating our thankfulness such as decorating our homes with banners or signs such as "Thank You Lord" or "We Celebrate Being Alive" for Thanksgiving. Another way of in- cluding God in our Thanksgiving celebrations was to have each fami- ly member tell "What made me hap- py today?" or to say a special Thanksgiving prayer. Barbara Sharpe led in the reading and singing of the hymn, "Count Your Blessings". Ada reminded members that they should be thankful for their problems and "face them head on". She told how having a "special" grandchild had turned out to be a blessing and a "stepping stone" to a deeper faith and understanding for their family. Mildred Jones led in prayer. Ada Dinney introduced Arnold Mathers, superintendent of program with the Huron County Board of Education. Mr. Mathers introduced the "Kids on the Block", arm manipulated puppets that have "con- servations" in pairs.

Many teachers and assistants are able to operate the puppets which resemble "muppets" and , follow the scripts provided. Perhaps, one of the most in- teresting things about the program to encourage regular kids to feel com- fortable with "kids with handicaps" in the classroom is that each "kid on the block's" story is based on a real person. Heather Buchanan, Diane Kirton and Ila Mathers. assisted Arnold Mathers in the presentation of several short scripts. The first "conversation" took place between Ellen Jane, a mentally retarded veterinarian assistant and __ Bx da,._-a—regular---kid:--After demonstrating how to administer medicine to Brenda's pet dog, Ellen Jane tells Brenda that mentally retarded peple can learn many of the things that regular people can, but they take much longer to learn. Even though she wasn't capable of atten- ding college she has learned to assist the veterinarian. Jennifer, a "kid with learning disabilities" tell Brenda she can learn as much as anyone else but has to learn some things in a different way. Learning disabled people are quite capable of going to college or university. Mark, with the handicap of cerebral palsy explains to Melody, a regular kid, how he can still play sports with his "super dooper sports cruiser wheelchair and his helmet. Valerie, a spina bifida "kid" is ready to go to the school dance with Eric but her friend Joanne "a regular kid" won't go because of the "zits" (pimples) on her face.

Seems to me Continued from page 6 thankful. In some terrible need, we may pray with desperate intensity, but time passes and and we forget. Sometime, we are not only ungrateful to God but to those. around us, on whom we depend im- measurably. Children are not always grateful to their parents. Of all living creatures, man requires the longest time to become able to meet his needs for life. In our infancy, a few days neglect would kill us; and there are long years when we are dependent on our parents for literally everything. Yet, it sometimes happens that an ag- ed parent is a nuisance. Children forget the debt they owe. We are ungrateful to our fellow men. Few of us have not, at some time or another, owed a great debt to someone which is impossible to repay. We think we will never forget their help and support, but sadly, we often do, and it passes from our memory. Many contribute, daily, to make our lives more comfortable and pleasant... farmers, store clerks, doc- tors, hair dressers, garbage collec- tors, teachers, waitresses, to name only a few. Yet, how often do we real- ly show our gratifute to them? Yes, we all have much for which to be thankful, first of all to God, and then to our fellow human beings, and it seems to me it would be a much happier world if we could only remember to express our gratitude a little oftener. da he can read the special bumps call- ed "braille". He also tells her how the uses a ball with a beeper to play baseball and uses a braille checker- board for checkers. These were -just a few of the many scripts available for presentations in schools or any interested groups. Research has shown a great improve- ment in the feelings of regular children towards other children with handicaps in the classroom, after see- ing these "conservations" played out. Arnold and his assistants were sincerely thanked for their presenta- tions by Ada Dinney. A delicious lunch was served by Melver Ecker's group. H.
