RTE. 120, McHENRY 385-6655 The McHenry County Historical society board of directors is going to charge an entrance fee Sunday, July 24, to the museum at Union with members carrying cards ad mitted free. The hours are 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. The visitors during the summer on Wednesdays and Sundays have had high praise for what has been ac complished in the preservation of the history of McHenry county but their donations have been disappointingly low. They are surprised at the more than $10,000 artifacts on display, all of which were donated by the people of the county. The cost of air conditioning and lights on visitors' days should be met by the donations and since the other museums all make a charge it will be tried on an experimental basis. The graphic department is finally being set up so that in another week or two anyone wishing to see original land grants, early mortgages, bills of sales, various legal papers such as guardian's deed, wills, one dating from 1813, can do so on request. They are kept in file drawers and are not on open display. The museum is again in need of display cases and any merchant wishing to donate surplus cases (and make a tax deduction) should call the museum at 815-923-2267. 150 Attend Richmond Alumni Dinner Dance The annual Richmond- Burton Community high school alumni dinner dance was held at Andre's Steak House in Rich mond and was attended by 150 graduates, former teachers and guests.

We have an 18-year-old daughter who was born with a birth defect She only bears a little and has a speech defect, but she has the gift of lip reading. She was 11 before the doctors found her trouble. With lots of hours spent helping her with homework she passed through high school. Now she can find no job because of her handicap. She is shy and stays alone and cries a lot. She doesn't think anyone can help her now. Can you give us any advice? A. Many people with similar afflictions have lived creative and even highly successful lives. Helen Keller, for example, could heither see nor hear, but became a talented and world-famous writer and speaker. I Your job, it seems to us, is to help your daugther arrive at a positive attitude, one of self-belief, an optimistic outlook. Get her to read books of a positive nature that will motivate her to know that people can rise above any handicap. - Many businesses welcome handicapped persons as employees. Investigate your locality for organizations that place handicapped nersons in suitable jobs. * * s £Xi J. ?r v * We have a booklet, Three Days To See, by HeleniCefier, which Nas helped many others, and a copy of it is on its way to you. Anyone reading this column who wishes a free copy may write tor one. Addnsss your request to Dr. and Mrs. Peale, Box 500, Pawling, NY 12564k " \ Two-Faced Husband Q. I have a moody husband with split personality and jealous. Around certain people he's the jolliest person you could find. But with others he is sulky and makes cracky remarks that are sarcastic. Talks about things he knows absolutely nothing about. He's two-faced, takes sides with whomever he's talking to. He's a great brown-noser and loves to gossip. You're his good friend to his face and he might cut your throat to your back. In a game for fun he'sa poor loser. He loves me very much and is good tome. But he acts different when my children from a former marriage visit us. I could go on and on. I want to know something to help him before he ruins his life with everyone. A. In your question some of your husband's good points are revealed. He can be very jolly ; he can act a good friend; he loves you and is good to you. We wonder if there are not other good points you could find. What your husband needs is to be built up from a faltering ego. People who act as he does need some person who loves them to buttress their good points. That will help diminish the less attractive qualities. So really start believing in him. His better personality will emerge. Conscience Bothers Her Q. My conscience has been bothering me, and I need some advice. I work as a secretary in a small hospital, and I let one of the nurses take the blame for something I've dope. I am going with a married mkn that I work for, and we let his Wife think he was going with the nurse. Well, needless to say, the nurse found out and quit her job of nine years. My boss's wife still thinks he is going with the nurse. Should I tell my boss's wife or let him tell her? He said, "No," but I would like to clear her name. A. Any time you do a dirty trick to another person, you should do all in your power to rectify it If you want to do something wrong, like going with a married man, that is your business. But to make an innocent person take the blame for it is pretty downright low. We are glad that your conscience does bother you, for it reveals that you really do have some strength of character. Don't follow the advice of the married man, for obviously he lacks good judgment in this situation. Get the nurse off the hook by letting the boa's wife know the facts. Otherwise that good conscience of yours will continue to harass you. That is what a conscience is for, and in your case it is doing a good job. Better turn your life over to God and start living a moral life. (Perhaps you would like to find an answer for yourself to a problem that you can share with others in There's An Answer! If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale to discuss in this column, write to them in care of Box 500, Pawling, NY 12564).
