I heard that Illinois has been awarded some federal funds to be used to offset utility and fuel bills for the elderly and unemployed. Is this for real? A. Yes, Governor Thompson announced the funding in the amount of $18.6 million in federal funds for the State of Illinois. The funds will be channeled through the Illinois Department of Public Aid, the Department of Aging, the Governor's Office of Manpower and Human Development, and local Community Action Agencies for distribution. Cooperation through these departments should insure that all qualified Illinois citizens will benefit equally from this one time funding program. Q. Just what will it mean to me if I'm qualified and how will it help me pay my utility bill? A. Under this program, one­ time payments of up to $250.00 per household will be made directly to utility companies or fuel suppliers. Families must meet program requirements of the elderly, poor, and near poor, or designated hardship cases. Q. How do I cb?ck this out to see if I am eligible? A. Families who are eligible or whp think they are eligible should contact one of the designated local administering agencies and specify that they are inquiring about the Federal Emergency Energy Con­ servation program.

Ruth Wickersham, last Sun­ day's sermon at Mount Hope United Methodist church was preached by Lynne Sobczak, chairperson of the church's worship commission. Mrs. Sobczak's topic was "Duck Religion". She related that "ducks are calm on the surface - but paddling like mad below. Paddling ducks break through the waves, but resting ducks are broken by them." She brought into focus the work being done by world Christianity, through the various denominations, and down to each individual Christian, thus challenging her audience to greater discipleship. Mrs. Sobczak is a lady of many talents which she shares graciously. Next Sunday, July 31, Russell Gardiner, lay-leader of the Spring Grove United Methodist church, will bring the message. The Rev. Wickersham will return to the pulpit Sunday, Aug. 7, at 11 a.m. According to the Illinois EPA, some 15 percent of the motorcycles in the state will have to have their noise emissions reduced either by replacement of defective or modified mufflers or by being driven in a quieter manner when the new regulations on noise limitatiohs for motor vehicles go into effect on December 10. car care facts FROM JACK MAL0 SERVICE MANAGER PAYT0N CHEVROLET 4 VEHICLE FRONT SUSPENSION The front end of your car should be aligned at least once a year. The front brakes should be checked because they do 60-70% of your stopping. Front wheel bearings should be repacked with clean grease approximately every two years or 24,000 miles. Your tires,should be rotated and checked for wheel balancing. An out of line front system will cause excessive tire wear and will also hurt your gas mileage. Neglecting to check your brakes can cause damage to your front drums or rotors. If the wheel bearings aren't packed it will cause them to disintegrate. • SERVICE SPECIAL OF THE WEEK •REPACK FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS •CHECK YOUR FRONT END ALIGNMENT •CHECK YOUR BRAKES & SHOCKS . .CHECK YOUR TIRES FOR •REPACK FRONT WHEEL FOR PROPER WEAR AND BEARINGS AIR PRESSURE S1495 P.S.

Corrie ten Boom "Corrie: Behind the Scenes with The Hiding Place," a new full-length color release from World Wide Pictures, will be shown at First Baptist church, 509 Front street, Sunday, July 31. A single showing is scheduled to begin at 6 p.m." "The Hiding Place", a true story filmed in Holland and other European locations, is based on the experiences of Corrie ten Boom, who, with her father, sister,, and brother, provided refuge for countless Jewish families. A secret room was constructed in their home as a hiding place for use during Gestapo raids. The ten Boom's activities were discovered, and they were sent to prisons and concentration camps. According to Kenneth Bliss, director of Distribution for World Wide Pictures, "The Hiding Place" has been ex­ tremely well received, both by audiences and film critics. "Corrie was produced to give people who have seen 'The Hiding Place' or read her many best-selling books an op­ portunity to hear her share many of her memories about her life in Holland, her family, and her lifetime of service to others." Bliss added that the film "offers a great lesson in the perseverance of a personal faith in a very dark and trying pei od of world history. Corrie ten Boom, now in her eighties, has a tremendous vitality, a deep spiritual commitment, and a profound Jove for her fellow man. Wejbelieve w^ave succeeded in (transmitting a part of her zest, personality, and souce^of Strength through this film." Bliss nojted that the film includes^nteresting sidelights "'orfThe experiences of the cast and crew during the filming of 'The Hiding Place ." The Rev. M.E. Werry, pastor of First Baptist church, stresses that the showing of "Corrie" is open to the public free of charge. "We encourage families to plan to attend together, for what we believe will be a memorable ex­ perience," he concluded. I SERVICE NEWS I Marine Finishes Basic Aviation PAGE 7 - PLAINDEALFft - WEDNESDAY. JULY 2J, Ml Lakes Region Rescue Squad Disbands July 31 The Lakes Region Rescue squad will discontinue operations at 12:01 a.m. July 31. This action results from the following reasons as listed by the squad: 1. Forced to remove vehicle from the Island Lake village garage. 2. The fire districts of Wauconda and Nunda both passing tax referendums to give them the necessary funds to provide ambulance service themselves. 3. To maintain an operating area that does not conflict with these fire districts leaves an area too small to generate enough calls to maintain an efficient squad. 4. This same operating area is not financially capable of supporting fa rescue squad Mechanic Course*[°^:~n>y'Kesent 5. The resident addresses of causing longer response times. 6. Twenty-four-hour radio dispatching has never been available, this again a result of finances. Marine Private Timothy M. Bradley, son of Mr. and Mrs. Francis E.

Illinois Agriculture Director John R. Block recently called "inappropriate", remarks by U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland in which he said that soybeans are on the way to "more reasonable prices" in the four to six dollar range. "I don't think it is appropriate for the secretary to suggest that four to six dollar beans are .what we should have,"Block said. "As far as I'm concerned there is nothing wrong with seven or eight dollar soybeans," Block said.
