In order to serve McHenry area brides, the Plaindealer mails wedding forms to all whose engagements have been announced in the paper and carry a definite date. We ask that these completed forms be returned three days before the wedding. The story containing all the information given on the form will appear only during the week following the wedding, except in the case of out-of-state weddings, where an additional week is allowed. Forms received the second week after the wedding will be prin­ ted with the omission of a description of the attire worn. Photographs will be printed any time later, or will be included with the wedding information if they accompany the story at the prescribed deadline. If your engagement announcement has not been published, or if the date of the wedding was not known at that time, please call our office and request that a marriage form be sent. Space problems experienced by a non-daily newspaper, and a desire to print up-to-date news, make this policy necessary. With Refrigerator/Freezers The refrigerator/freezer is one of the most important elements of the kitchen. It efficiently stores large quan­ tities of foods, cuts down on food spoilage and waste, expands the life of foods which, in turn, helps to save money. In addition, many models also manage to pro­ vide us with a plentiful supply of ice cubes auto­ matically. Offer Good Only thursday-Saturday Aug. 20,21,22 810 N.

Re­ stricted air flow forces the refrigerator/freezer to work harder and use more energy. • Place the refrigerator away from any heat- producing unit such as the range/oven, radiators and windows where intense, direct sunlight enters. • Clean the condenser coils regularly. Accumulated dust on the coils reduces efficiency and wastes energy. VALERIE BUTLER AND LEONARD LENZEN ANNOUNCE ENGAGEMENT - Mr. and Mrs. Harold Butler of McHenry announce the engagement of their daughter Valerie to Leonard Lenien of Glidden, Wis. The bride elect and her fiance both attended McHenry Community high school. A May 1982 wedding is planned. There's An Answer (by Norman Vincent Peale and Ruth Stafford Peale) Not a Punishment Q. My 84 year old mother has been left paralyzed and blind after two massive heart attacks and a stroke. I go to see her in the nursing home every day and she keeps saying, "I don't know what 1 ever did that I should be punished this way. How could I have done anything so b&d? " She was a good woman, a would like to ease her mind before God calls her home. A. Your dear mother has a fixed idea, an erroneous notion, that illness is a punishment by God, whereas it is entirely a scientific reaction to a physical condition. God, who is love, is not inflicting punishment when one of His children suffers physical impairment. But it will be difficult to reach your mother through reason. Simply talk to her about the love of God. This will get through to her. And do not let her complaints tear you to pieces. Let those thoughts of hers go in one ear and out the other so you can sincerely surround her with love thoughts. We are sending you our booklet What to do When which may be of help to you. It is free to any reader of this column. Write to us at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y. 12564. Tale Bearing Husband Q. My husband is a gossip, and I would certainly like to know what to say when he comes in bearing tales. I turn a deaf ear or just walk out the door until I think he has forgotten. I have told him I do not wish to listen, but nothing seems to dissuade him. Women are notorious for gossiping, but he beats them all. We are both 68 years old, and he keeps occupied with a hobby a good portion of the time. Is there any hope for him at his age? A. For a human being there is always hope at any age. That your husband is a gossip shows, it would seem, that despite his hobby he hasn't enough to keep his mind occupied. Perhaps you might help correct his pernicious habit by bringing to his attention how cruel and ruinous gossip can be. Some involvement with others, really helping people less fortunate, could help him forget the gossip. "Home Is Not Home Q. I am a busy wife and mother. When vacation time comes my mother thinks I should bring my family home to visit. "Home" is in another state, a long way from here. The trips are expensive for us and stressful. Our children do not think of my hometown as their hometown, and my husband is from another part of the country. Besides this, my family's attitudes and actions have not been kind. In short, going home only makes me unhappy, but if I don't go my mother wants me to feel guilty. Any suggestions for coping when I do go? A. We get the feeling that you have not yet entirely cut the 1 -i!ll -1 1 ' umbilical cord. You still feel when Mama says, "Come home," you must. Yet rationally you know this does not fully make sense, and you must not feel guilty if you don't go. Here is your big chance to grow up. Call a family conference and let everyone have a say. Then make a unified decision where to go on vacation. And let Mama do the adjusting. You might think of saving some money on your own and make a trip by yourself to see your parents sometime. If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale, write to them at Box 500, Pawling, N.Y. 12564. Invite All To Lakeland Park Street Dance The Lakeland Park P r o p e r t y O w n e r s association presents its second annual Street Bash on Saturday, Aug. 29, at 5 p.m. The event will feature bratwursts, corn-on-the-cob and beer for hungry tum­ mies and music for dancing feet.
