Home sewing to the homemaker or career woman is not only economical but their wardrobe can be indi­ vidualized. First, get pat­ terns with good, simple lines and alter before cutting the material. Soon, the art of combining patterns will produce even more individ­ uality. Choose materials in colors that blend and can be interchanged to produce a number of different outfits. A new broom won't sweep clean unless some­ one uses it. SUPPER TO OFFSET THE WEATHER Mr. and Mrs. Menge, Wonder became parents daughter July 4. David Lake, of a * * * * People only get old; life is continually new and full of change. A spell of hot, humid weather takes its toll of nearly everyone, from sedentary citizens to gymnasts and joggers. Light suppers not only are appealing but also provide respites from hot, steamy kitchens. An antipasto platter can be prepared several hours in advance, and Double Duty Pink Frosted can serve as both beverage and dessert. Two scoops of lemonade flavor drink mix eliminate difficult beverage preparation, and the addition of grena­ dine lends just the right touch of color to this creamy, smooth concoction. DOUBLE DUTY PINK FROSTED 2 scoops lemonade flavor drink 2 tablespoons water 1 cup milk 1/4 cup grenadine syrup 1 pint vanilla ice cream 1/2 cup club soda Combine drink mix and water in electric blender con­ tainer, blend until dissolved. Add milk, syrup and ice cream; blend again until smooth. Just before serving, stir in club soda. Makes about 3 cups or 3 servings. byCarlRibietJr. Q. "This question is not about a problem in aging. I want to forget that. Is it true as some old folks say that the moon has a way of making something happen to the weather? Or is it a crazy idea that our grandparents used to have? And if it does do something to the weather, what about the moon landing by the astronauts? Did they find out why the moon makes weather?" - Susan J. A. There are eldirly people in the prairie arefes of the United States - Kansas, Nebraska, eastern Colorado and eastern Montana - who say they believe some of the notions their grandparents used to have about the moon and the effect of the mom on the weather here on earth. 1 One notion insists that rainfall can be predicted quite accurately when the earthling observer makes note of the different positions of the moon in the sky. If the half moon or even the quarter moon, for example, rides across the sky with its two points positioned up, then what is sure to follow, the notion holds, is dry weather because the water will not spill out of the moon. If the crescent of the moon tilts downward, the amount of rainfall to be expected depends on the angle of the tilt. The moon-believer has to estimate just how much water will spill out as rain. If the moon stands on end, then very heavy rains may by on the way. If the moon is up­ side down, wafch out for a ding-buster of a rainfall - a deluge. Surprisingly, many times it does rain when the believers predict that it will, and the non-believers have to admit that the rain came just like it said up there in the sky. We have yet to learn whether the findings of the astronauts who landed on the lunar body give support to the thoughts of the moon- believers. Probably not. - Q. "I'd like to be a pen pal of William E.P., whose letter you printed in your column. How about sending me his address or sending him mine? Enclosed is an en­ velope either for you to answer me or to send to William." - Anna C.H. A. This column does not arrange in any way what­ soever for pen-pal ID cooling costs up to 40%.

I have received over 200 letters inquiring about my < club. This is the first chance i I have had to answer them (because I was injured in an c auto accident. What do you < think of the form letter? -- v Hazel V. A. Hazel seems to have had an idea whose time has come, but she may wake up and find that the clock has stopped when registration fees fail to come in by the hundred. It might be fair to ask for a registration fee of a dollar. A large fee could discourage many who may think Hazel is trying to make too good a thing out of her club. Hazel would do better to lower her sights and help people instead of taking in more money than is needed to operate a successful WOW. Q. "I read about Estelle who wanted the words and music to 'Answer To A Maiden's Prayer.' I think whe should check again with Stanley Kilarr at 1402 East Main street, Klamath Falls, Ore. 97601. I have been dealing with Mr. Kilarr for a long time and I find him very accommodating. He is swamped with requests. I hope Estelle will be patient and bear with him." - Virginia B. A. Stan Kilarr has the words and music to just about every song that was ever published. But he can't work for nothing. His charges as stated by Virginia seem reasonable. Those who request his service ought to be reasonable, too. Q. "You helped somebody find the famous photo taken of the U.S. Marines as they raised the American flag at Iwo Jima. Can you tell me where to write to obtain a photo of the U.S.S. Rich, a > Navy ship my brother was on? I have written to many (daces, but nobody answers, even though I enclosed a self-addressed stamped envelope." - Harriett H.A. A. If Harriett will write to her senator in Washington or to a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, she will get the information post haste, as they used to say when the mail delivery was swift. Maybe not post haste, but the answer will come to her in due course.

"You printed a letter from a woman who said the wealthy who get Social Security cheeks should not get them because they don't need them. I wouldn't want to see someone else get the money that was deducted from my husband's paycheck for so many years that he labored. Don't you agree? "And here's an answer, not a question, to all those who write in about the prophecies of Mother Shipton. She wrote in the sixteenth century that the world would come to an end in 1991. How come you said it was 1881?" - Mrs. F.W.F. A. There are two versions of the date supposedly given ify Mother Shipton's Prophecies - 1881 and 1981.1 have never read of the 1991 date. It has long been known that Mother Shipton's genuine attempts at prophecy were expanded centuries later to include prophecies she didn't make. Most of her so-called prophecies were contained in an update, so to speak, of her original writing, produced by a bookseller in London It was proved to be a hoax. The idea in the letter about Social Security payments to the wealthy was not that the money could go to someone else. The writer thought it could go into the general SS fund, or something like that. Q. "I am getting Social Security checks from a percentage of my husband's money that he gets from SS. Am I eligible to receive Medicare? I have not been employed. I am 65." - Geneva B. A. Geneva is indeed en­ titled to Medicare. She should call her local Social Security office and ask how she can apply as a person past 65.

By Appointment Our Office It Located At 13711 W. JACKSON ST., WOODSTOCK Phone 338-3930 Ten good reasons why we need a new regional Health Care Center on Route 31 and Bull Valley Road. The present hospital site in downtown McHenry is very restricted. Our second reason for proposing a new medical center in a more open and accessible area is that it is not feasible to construct patient care departments which are appropriately sized as part of the present hospital. The hos­ pital is restricted by an adjoin­ ing natural waterway on one side, and municipal property which cannot be purchased on the other side and is located on a flood plain. Patient and visitor parking is a major problem dur­ ing certain hours of the day. On occasion, access is difficult by rescue personnel due to traffic congestion. Action needed ... now! Recognizing that time is a critical factor in the costpf the 1 project, it is most important that we begin to build the new medical center as soon as pos­ sible. Therefore we ask your sup support of this project.
