RELIEF PROGRAM This year CARE reac­ tivated its relief program in Poland, 35 years after initially providing aid there. Poland was one of the first countries CARE helped when the organization was formed following World War II. From 1946 1949 and from 1957-1970, CARE supplied a total of more than $65 million in goods and services to Poland. During the current harvest emergency CARE is distributing food packages to needy elderly people^ children, pregnant women and nursing mothers Many local residents are aware of the construction of the new multi-purpose ad­ dition under way this summer at McHenry County college. But there is also another building project nearing completion on the MCC campus-construction of an inflated greenhouse adjacent to the College's Applied Science building. Twelve students enrolled in a special course have built the greenhouse along with MCC instructor Dale Rath- jen in a project that began after graduation last May. The students and Rathjen have done all the work for the project including pouring concrete, setting posts in concrete, running water and gas pipes, erecting the aluminum hoops that hold the double poly walls and even building the benches that will hold the plants. On Aug. 24 the students, MCC INFLATED GREENHOUSE Rathjen and MCC main­ tenance workers covered the aluminum trusses with the two large sheets of plastic that form the walls and roof of the greenhouse. "We had been waiting for the right weather--you couldn't do it when it was the least bit windy," Rathjen explained, adding that they also wanted most of the work completed because the plastic covering makes it much warmer to work in the greenhouse. The students then installed the small fan which blows air between the twt> layers of plastic to provide insulation for the greenhouse and to stabilize the walls. The main part of the greenhouse comes from a kit which was purchased with money donated to the college by an MCC student. The students also built an en- tryway to connect the greenhouse to the existing MCC greenhouse using flat and corregated fiberglass sheets. A system of fans that ventilate the new greenhouse and a heating system for cold winter nights have also been installed. Rathjen said the work will be finished in plenty of time for fall classes. The greenhouse will be used to store plants for the various agriculture and horticulture classes at MCC. Rathjen said that half of those who signed up to help build the greenhouse are enrolled at the college in a greenhouse management program Rathjen teaches. The others were local residents who wanted to learn the greenhouse con­ struction techniques for their own use, Rathjen said. ROBERT MUSIKflNTOW, Ph.D. psychologist for the Family Service and Community Mental Health Center for McHenry County (Editor's Note: This is another article in the Today's Psychology weekly series of especially written articles for McHenry County readers. The topic this week is "Pain Control." Though pain is usually thought of as a psychological response which now and then we all have to put up with, researchers in recent ex­ periments have discovered a startling fact. What they have discovered is that the subjective ex­ perience of pain can be altered and in some cases even completely eliminated through the use of mental processes Furthermore, they have found that these simple* techniques can be taught to many people in a relatively short period of time, so that they can learn how to control pain in their daily lives. NOTICE There are essentially three methods for controlling pain. I will describe each method individually, from the simplest to the most dif­ ficult. The first method is distraction. When utilizing this approach one simply concentrates intensely on something other than the pain. The object of con­ centration can be something that is actually in your en­ vironment or it can be something that you imagine such as a pleasant scene. The more interesting the object or image that you are attending to, the more ef­ fective this approach will be. Another approach is to imagine that the pain is something else. With your imagination, you could pretend that your p&in is actually a pleasant elec­ trical feeling or perhaps that it is a feeling of warmth. Work on imagining it to be different things until you find something that works for you. , The third, and for most people the most difficult approach, involves actually developing a numb feeling in the area that is painful. This can be accomplished by imagining that a physician is giving you a shot of novacaine in your hand. Once this is done, imagine that a feeling of numbness is slowly spreading throughout your hand until it is com- peltely numb. Once your hand feels numb, imagine that the feelings of numb­ ness are moving from your hand into the painful part. When practicing these techniques, one must be cautious. Pain is often the body's message that something is wrong and needs to be attended to. If you have any pain whose origin you are unsure of, you should always consult $ physician before removing the pain.
