Songs You Can See" Coming To McHenry If children begin coming home from school talking about a truck that performs musical comedy, or about a fotksinger who draws pictures, don't worry. It just means Urban Gateways has visited McHenry area schools once again. Two McHenry schools will host singer-guitarist Roxana Alsberg and artist Peggy Lipschutz in "Songs You Can See," Tuesday, April 26. As Ms. Alsberg sings, Ms. Lipschutz draws large, full- color pictures highlighting the meaning, feeling or humor of a song. ' . -~'~7 •: They will perftifm at 10:45 a.m. at Valley View school, and at 1:20p.m. at Parkland junior high. Ms. Lipschutz and Ms. Alsberg are performing in McHenry county schools through Urban Gateways Artist-In-The-Schools program. This is made possible in part by grants from the Illinois Arts council, private contributions, and the National Endowment for the Arts, which has recognized Urban Gateways as the national model for com­ munity based arts-educations programs. For further information, please call the Schools Program department at 641- 1103. Chew some dry coffee while holding your nose and you won't taste anything. But take a breath and you will.

I'.UiK !l PLilNDEALER-FRlDAY, APRIL 15, 1977 All along we have had the belief that a iree or plant within a landscape needed no special excuse for its exist- shade and fresh air and quiet it gives freely and naturally. Now they're telling us- these things save fuel bills. It seems you can't have some­ thing around just because it's nice and you like it; there has to be a dollar sign attached. Some university scientists made measurements in South Dakota and tell us a house with a windbreak of evergreen trees on three sides used 40. percent less fuel over the winter than an identical house without the trees. The same tests in Eastern states, where winter winds are not as rowdy, showed fuel savings closer to 10 per­ cent for houses sheltered by trees on the north and west sides, and even that is a sig­ nificant figure.

We go along with that. Saving energy these days is a necessary thing. But our po­ sition is this. Put the trees in your part of the world just because they deserve to be there. The energy they con­ serve is only an added bonus.

LABOR LEADERS MEET Leaders of the United Auto Workers and the AFL- CIO met recently and dis­ cussed ending eight years of separation. cooking, tx] Edison Electric Institute of­ fer these eight helpful hints. 1. If cooking is to be done efficiently, heat must be transferred from electric cooking element to food with minimum loss* to the surroundings. To help do this, select pots and pans with absolutely flat bot­ toms. Spherical bottoms leave an air gap which pro­ vides a ready escape route for heat. 2. Use cooking utensils of the right size to completely cover the surface element. Whenever any part of the cooking coil is exposed, heat is wasted. 3. Expand the family menus to include stews and other single-dish meals that can be prepared in a slow cooker or crock pot. Such meals require far less energy than those calling for the simultaneous use of, say, the oven plus two or three surface units. 4. Make more use ofyour pressure cooker. Prejssure cookers cut food prepara­ tion time to one-thirdf that required by conventional methods. Develop thejhabit of "lids-on" cooking. Tight­ ly fitted lids help keep heat within the iftensils, permit­ ting the use of lower tem- _ attd-shefter cooking times. 5. Reflector pans beneath stovetop heating elements should be kept bright and clean. Shiny pans help focus heat rays c?n utensil bot­ toms; dull or soiled pans absorb heat wastefully. 6. Carefully measure water used for cooking to avoid having to heat more than is really needed, when you put the kettle on, for instance. Begin cooking on highest heat until liquid begins to boil. Then lower the heat control setting and allow food to simmer until fully cooked. KENOSHA COUNTY SPEEDWAY Wilmot, Wise. NEW OPEN COMPETITION RACING SpQRTSMAN 73 mile EVERY SAT.

When operating the electric oven, attempt to cook as much of the meal in it at one time as possible. Foods with different cook­ ing temperatures can often be cooked simultaneously at one temperature-^variations of 25 degrees more or less still produce good results and save energy. 8. When preheating an oven for baking, time the preheat period carefully. Five to eight minutes should be sufficient. There is no need to preheat for broiling or roasting.
