PAGE 8 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 25. 1977 Conclude Witness Assembly Around The World In Song Jehovah's Witnesses and friends to the number of 1,215 concluded a two-day assembly at their assembly hall in Janesville, Wis., this past weekend, sixty-five of that number from the Woodstock Congregation, according to George Nowicki, presiding overseer. John M. Yasko, district overseer for the Witnesses in several midwest states, was the main speaker. Yasko, an active Witness for fifty-five years, opened the session with a talk, "Endure Through Close Association," setting the tone for the assembly theme, "You have need of endurance, in order that. .. you may receive the fulfillment of the promise." (Heb. 10:36) The balance of the Saturday morning program was devoted to exhortation to serve in the 'pioneer' or full-time preaching work of Jehovah's Witnesses and to strengthening the family unit, according to Nowicki. "For example," Nowicki said, "one portion of the program, The^Eible Can Unite the Family,'^demonstrated families sharing in Bible reading. As verses were read, all members of the family participated in a question and answer discussion that highlighted practical ap- plicaiton of the material." "Another part, 'Keep Our Families Spiritually United,' featured interviews with three family heads who had applied Bible principles in the rearing of their children with good results". For the closing presentation Saturday, Yasko spoke on the subject, "Gain Strength Through Regular Association".

This was immediately followed by the immersion of fifteen new witnesses. The baptism pool, situated behind large plate glass windows beside the main platform, was within view of all present in the auditorium. The principle address for the assembly at 2 p.m. Sunday was delivered by Yasko. As he developed his theme, "Main­ tain Your Confidence Firm to the End", he invited his audience to follow a verse-by- verse discussion of Hebrews, Chapter 3. "With the end of this system of things so near," Yasko concluded, "now is the time to be close to our brothers, not complaining or showing weakness, but each being strong to exhort one another. While encouraging one another, each also gets encouragement from God." Age Discrimination Illinois Department on Aging Director Josephine K.

The Illinois House of Represen­ tatives voted to override the veto previously. Local legislators voting in favor of the override are Sen. Jack Schaffer (R-33), Rep. R. Bruce Waddell (R-33), and Rep. Tom Hanahan (D-33). Mrs. Donna Whitfield, chairwoman of McHenry County Citizens for Life, a local pro-life group opposed to abortion, applauded the action of the General Assembly. "We are pleased with the override," she said, "but at the same time we recognize the serious responsibility to assist women with problem pregnancies. For many years a number of agencies have provided assistance before, during and after delivery. These included to work with these agencies to guarantee that no woman will be without the emotional, physical, and financial ^ assistance she needs to bring her baby to term." Beginning Dec. 15, an alternatives program will be available in McHenry county. Until that time contact 344-1078 for information.

Last year's hard winter and expanding corn and soybean farming which reduces the pheasant habitat,, have reduced the' number of birds in Illinois by 40 to 60 percent from 1976 levels in east-central Illinois, the state's prime pheasant range. The pheasant season will end Jan. 15. &ke In vtfatowvul US 14 & 173 24 Hr.
