I'ajre 11 - PIMNDEAI.ER-HKRAKU. FRIDAY. Jl'SE 14.198? Students make use of donated engine A 2.6-liter Ford Escort engine, donated to McHenry County College by the Ford Motor Company, can be seen in operation this summer at Conlon-Collins Ford, 5213 North­ west Hwy., Crystal Lake. Rick Burman, service vdirector of Conlon-Collins Ford was instrumental in arranging the donation. MCC automotive students readied the engine for display. They disassembled the engine, designed the cut-away pattern and reassembled it in a manner allowing the engine's internal operations to be easily viewed by the public. The engine is intended for use as an automotive instructional aid at the College. According to Dick Hranac, MCC Automotive Technology Instructor and Program Coordinator, "The engine's operations have been slowed down to help students understand the relationship of the valves' timing, cooling system and piston movements. This makes the engine's con­ struction easier to explain. The kind of support MCC receives from Conlon-Collins Ford and its employees is im­ portant. Displaying the engine in the showroom gives the public a chance to see the teaching aids MOLLY MILLIGAN Your Home Decorator Palw Sfilhkurt S»nrtnulr ^ d11' ?

How can I best display my collection? Jeff, Woodstock Dear Jeff: "There is no furniture so charming as books," so said a wise bibliophile. Books add warmth, beauty and interest to a room as well as reveal something about the collector. Any room is the right room to display your books as long as you have a good light and a comfortable place to curl up and read. require shelves that are long about 8 inches deep. Larger books need deeper shelves. The height of books may vary so adjustable shelves are a smart investment. Never crowd your books and always allow extra shelf space for future purchases. To display decorative accessories between books may look great but can be a nuisance when you reach for a classic only to have everything on the shelf shift, or tilt or fall. For this reason I suggest bookshelves with vertical dividers. The dividers act as bookends and allow you to seperate your books from breakable treasures. •> For a novel look, select a book that has an attractive cover (ex:. large art book) and display it so the front of the book faces into the room rather than the usual spine-to-front. If you would like to build our own bookshelves but require step- by-step plans1 with schematic line drawings then Decorating on the Cheap by Mary Gilliatt ($12.95, Workman Publishing) is the book for you. Ms. Gilliatt's book is filled with hundreds of refreshing ideas, color photographs and easy to follow in­ structions from hbw to make a uunpout ofawioe bottle to mirroring the bathroom ceiling. Take care of your books-Books require regular attention. Open bookshelves look terrific bat demand constant dusting. To dust your books use a soft, dry, clean doth or vacuum with the brush attachment. Remove each book, dust top and sides, then clean the shelf. The ideal temperatures for preserving books are between 65 and 75 degrees with a relative humidity of 50 percent. Keep your books away from direct sunlight and heat. Light dries and fades while heat can warp the bindings.
