In his performances he is ac­ companied by synchronized orchestral sound tracks and theatrical lighting effects. The sound system and lights involve 200 pounds of special equip­ ment.

Born in Elgin, he lived in South America for ten years after completing his studies in college. It was in Ecuador that he discovered the close relationship between music and art, and he began to develop the techniques he uses now. In 1966 he resumed his residence in the United States and currently lives in Elgin. When he returned to North America, he intended to teach art and perform his "Musical Pain­ tings" as the demand arose. The response was so great that within one year he was dedicating all of his time to the performances. Although Mr. Mosiman holds a Master's degree in art, his program is designed for the average person who has had no art background. The scenes in his paintings have universal appeal and are based on land­ scapes and music from around the world, stage plays, literature and films. The Thanksgiving dinner for the congregation is being sponsored for the sake of fellowship and education. The committee in charge of the planning of the dinner includes Carl and Lillian Anderson, Elmer and Mila Bauer, Frank and Eleanor Crawford, Herb and June Heckel, Leonard and Cecelia Swedberg, Walter and Eunice Jandt, Al and Katherine Kentzel, Ellis and Lydia Mahrs, and Rank and Louise Giel. dpLzcdz rljoa id cScjuarzi d[aJj The Checkerboard Squares of McHenry have joined the M e t r o p o l i t a n C h i c a g o association of Square Dancers, a non-profit organization for the promotion, enjoyment and unification of square and round d a n c i n g .

The ladies were inspired by the talks of Guest Master Father Henry and joined around the altar to celebrate Mass. All discussions and services were in the new church which was dedicated July 11. The exposed pipes of the organ focus at­ tention on the simple wooden altar that has been used con­ tinuously since the foundation of the monastery in 1945. The beautiful Blessed Sacrament chapel opens to the church interior. Father Vincent conducted a tour of the Scripture room, where beautiful diorama depict events from the Bible. The figures are exquisitely carved in wax, only about 7 inches in height, and the slightest details, fingernails, features^ etc. were all perfect. Also in the Scripture room were shrines of Palestine and the Holy Land. The statues are nearly life size, hand carved in wood. Most impressive were the Stations of the Cross, hand carved on pearl and displayed so that the iridescence " showed each exquisite detail. Also of great beauty was an exhibit of Brother David's colored photography, Brother Gerald's playing of the fourteen rank pipe organ, and the Gregorian chant of the monks at prayer. Needless to say, the ladies are already looking forward to the Spring Day of Recollection. Plans are also in the 1974 calendar for a tour to see the Passion play in Zion. Tips For Homemaker Because of the changes that take place in people as they grow older, more care needs to be taken to prevent disabling injuries or deaths from ac­ cidents at home. Pat Sullivan, McHenry county Extension home economist, offers this check list to make safer homes for all ages. Changes: 1. Rearrange storage so often used items are at levels that don't require stooping, reaching or climbing. 2. Add more light on stair­ ways, in kitchen and other danger spots. Relocate swit-,1 ches so lights can be turned on as a person enters a room, at both ends of a hall, or at top and bottom of stairs. 3. Clear furniture out of traffic lanes to prevent falls, and in the bedroom leave an open path to the window and door for emergencies. 4. Store internal and external medications in separate cabinets or on separate shelves, and discard old medications. 5. Fix loose or ripped car­ peting, linoleum and stair treads that could cause falls. 6. Repair doors and windows that are difficult to open. ELIMINATE: 1. Avoid or eliminate one-step elevation changes wherever possible. Ramps can be used in place of steps for safer walking. 2. Get rid of rugs that slide and all scatter rugs at the top of stairways. 3. Toss out shoes or slippers that don't fit well, and loose- fitting, trailing robes that could be dangerous around fire or cause you to trip. 4. Get rid of too-heavy kit­ chen utensils, pots with wobbly or broken handles, worn or frayed electric cords, and all equipment not safe to use. ADD: 1. Grab bars and hand grips meeting. All area dancers may attend, whether or not they are members of the association. There is no admission charge.

This organization was founded for the purpose of giving information and en­ couragement to those who want to nurse their babies. In the past month, representatives from La Leche league spoke to classes in Family Living at the local high schools about child birth and breast feeding. As nursing mothers, members of the league try to personally give aid to persons who are in­ terested in breast feeding. Pregnant women, new mothers and adoptive parents are asked to attend any meeting. They are helpful and may answer many questions. Each session deals with a specific topic such as the ad­ vantages of breast feeding, techniques of nursing and nutrition of the family. MR. AND MRS. JAMES E. FEELEY, JR.

Mrs. Piekos' name will be imprinted on each card, giving her credit for the design. Seasoning Sense Beef steaks should be seasoned after browning for a very im­ portant reason. Salt, a common seasoning agent, draws meat juices to the surface which re­ tards the initial browning that maximizes the wonderful flavor of beef. An easy rule is to season each side of the steak after it has been browned. in supplementing course study by taking live theatre into area classrooms. In recognition of the aims and quality of their work, the troupe has received several grants from the Illinois Art Council.
