MAY AND MADELINE Winter Preparedness a - winter preparedness The Public Safety com­ mittee of the McHenry County board has requested Chairman Ronald J. Morris to proclaim Dec. 6 through Dec. 12 as Winter Preparedness week. This information comes from the McHenry County Emergency Services and Disaster agency: Winter storms kill per- sistently-from year to year- both by direct and indirect means. Attributable deaths come from automobile accidents, overexertion, exhaustion and consequent fatal heart attack, exposure and fatal freezing as well as home fires, carbon monoxide poisoning in stalled cars, falls on slippery walks, and electrocution from downed wires. The first step in winter preparedness is keeping posted on weather con­ ditions. Listen to your local radio station, Weather Service radio, or your local television station to keep informed of current forecasts in your area. Even a few hours warning may enable you to avoid being caught outside in a severe storm or better prepared to cope with it at home. The terms "watch" and "warning" are used for winter storms, as for other natural hazards. "Watch" means severe winter weather conditions may affect your area. Keep listening for advisories and begin precautionary measures. "Warning" means severe winter weather conditions are imminent and immediate action should be taken to protect life and property. You should also Un­ derstand the terms com­ monly used in weather forecasts. A "blizzard" is the most dangerous of all winter storms. It combines cold air, heavy snow, and strong winds that blow the snow about and may reduce visibility to only a few yards. A "blizzard warning" is issued when the Weather Service expects a con­ siderable accumulation of falling and-or blowing snow with winds of 35 miles per hour or more. A "severe blizzard" warning means that a considerable ac­ cumulation of falling and-or blowing snow is expected, with winds of at least 45 miles per hour and tem­ peratures of 10 degrees F. or lower. A "heavy snow" warning usually means an expected snowfall of four inches or more in a 12-hour period, or six inches or more in a 24- hour period. "Travelers' advisories" are issued to indicate the snow, sleet, and freezing rain or drizzle will make driving difficult. "Ice storm" is the term used to describe freezing rain or drizzle when a substantial glaze layer accumulates. Sidewalks, streets, and highways become extremely hazar­ dous to pedestrians and motorists; more than 85 percent of ice-storm deaths are traffic related. The chairman has requested McHenry County Emergency Services and Disaster agency to make available additional in­ formation on winter safety. This information may be obtained at the McHenry County Emergency Services and Disaster Agency office at 2200 North Seminary avenue, Woodstock, or by telephoning 815-338-6400. fAUfc J - rLAinutALfcK - WUUNfcSUAY, OKCEMtttK c, iwi Vivian Bassett To Be Genealogical Speaker HOSPITAL NOTES MCHENRY Admissions: Robert Haskins, Anna Burger, Geraldine Vrbik, Brenda Arndt and Emily F. Rahn, all of McHenry. WOODSTOCK Admissions: Kristin Asmussen, Julie Burgess and Peter Bender, all of McHenry; Judith Sundin and Carl Walker, both of Wonder Lake; and Irene Warner of Spring Grove. HARVARD Admission: Mildred Hagerty of McHenry. Vivian Bassett of McHenry will be the featured speaker at the M c H e n r y C o u n t y Genealogical society meeting to be held Thursday evening, Dec. 10, at 7:30 p.m. at the McHenry Public library, 1011 N. Green street. Her subject will be "DAR, SAR and Other Patriotic Organizations." An explanation of the purposes and functions of these groups will be given, as well as information for a better understanding on how to use the genealogical records associated with these groups. Mrs. Bassett will also tell about the essential requirements to prove lineage for those people seeking membership in these organizations. Charter memberships are still available until Dec. 31. Dues paid by then will also cover membership for 1982 at the charter rate. Annual membership dues will be increased as of Jan. 1, 1982. The society will be ending the year with over 150 members in its first nine months of existence. Because of this rapid growth, the society meetings will be moving as of January to the Fellowship hall at Grace Lutheran church, Woodstock. It is hoped that this more central location will encourage membership of even more residents in the county. CONSERVATION MEETING The next regular meeting of the board of trustees of the McHenry County Con­ servation district will take place at 7 p.m. Dec. 3 in the district office at 6612 Harts road, Ring wood. Still popular as an energy saver is the wrap and snap warmer. Evening TV watchers can lower the thermostat by using the blanket-style warmer. • Truly crisp salads are always done by hand. Lettuce leaves should be torn by hand and the salad itself should be tossed by two hands. This insures greens won't be beaten soggy by bruising utensils. • K e e p y o u r k i t c h e n free of smoke and grease by barbecuing outdoors. Line the barbecue with alumi­ num foil, then just throw away the foil when cool and cleanup will be a breeze. Fruit ripens faster in plas­ tic bags than in the air. JlittHe I 1701 N.
