Ufs~ nyx Rose Marie Pintozzi Your entrance should be a welcoming place. Take a look at the entry way to your home. Is it cluttered with all sorts of uncomfortable and unnecessary gear? Does it welcome people or warn the people when they enter your house? Usually an entry way has no room for large pieces of furniture. Remember this, and keep furniture small and on a scale with the size of the area. A cheerful wallcovering and a rug or carpet of harmonizing shades go a long toward welcoming your guests. Wallcoverings of all kinds are available at MARC HOME DECORATING INC., 4400 W. Rte. 120 ( Located in McHenry Market Place), 385-7100. Make your sel­ ection from foils, flocks, vinyls, fabrics,wall carpeting and cork and we feature many well known decorator brands. In adddition to assisting individuals, we are happy to help painting and decorating contractors. Hours: Mon thru Sat 8:30am - 5:30pm; evening hours by ap- ppointment. Helpful Hint A hall should have a focal point, a beautiful plant or painting, to give it some interest.

The International committee chooses a theme and appoints a group of women from a dif­ ferent part of the world to write the worship materials for each year. The theme for 1975 is "Become Perfectly One," a search for the meaning of Christian unity in the broader context of a pluralistic society. The worship service has been prepared by the Women's E c u m e n i c a l P r a y e r Fellowship of Egypt. Thousands of Christian women who are outside the Orthodox tradition will be able to savor a service that includes elements from a liturjy dating back to the early centuries of Christendom as well as elements born of the Arab experience of Protestantism and Catholicism. World Day of Prayer provides an occasion for participation in a nation-wide offering which goes into a fund c a l l e d I n t e r c o n t i n e n t a l Mission-the process by which Church Women United carries forwar.d its stewardship through annual grants to agencies around the world in these five major concerns: higher education for women in overseas Christian colleges; preparation and distribution of Christian literature for women and children in Asia, Africa, and Latin America; education for minority women in new careers and for American Indian youth; ministries among migrant farm workers; support for the Christian ministry in national parks. In addition, offerings make possible gifts to short-term projects to meet emerging opportunities and needs such as r e c o n s t r u c t i o n a n d rehabilitation services to women and children victimized by war; ecumenical ventures and international conferences for women; pilot projects in self-help programs for refugee women; day care centers; family planning, health and nutrition education and clinics.
