PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. DECEMBER 2, 1977 Superior Infant Food Initiates Sound Diet "Free Check" For Turnout Tuesday, Dec. 6 Friends In SeryN& Here" McHenry Chapter Many are indebted to all who helped in any way with items for filling, and delivery of the Thanksgiving baskets. There were sixty-one baskets distributed Sunday, Nov. 20, which we are sure were en­ joyed by all who received them. Each basket contained a turkey, pie, rolls and margarine, together with all the other items, canned goods, fresh vegetables and fruits, etc. As mentioned previously, needy people are referred to us by Medical Health and Family Services, Illinois Public Aid, H^adstart, McHenry County »4fousing authority, Visiting Nurses , association, Prisoner Release Migratory council, various churches, and people who have been in contact with Fish. In one of our "recent articles on Thanksgiving baskets and our Pantry, we mentioned construction and other lay-offs. These are general laborers who work when such work is available. Our Pantry is specifically to help out in emergencies. Folks who do not receive their Welfare checks, or other checks when expected, for food needed while waiting for their money to come in ... it is one-time help, not con­ tinuing. For example, a mother alone with three children receives $350 a month, and has a heavy heating bill of $100 or more, does not have much left for food. If you have various items at any time for the Fish Pantry, please call 385-6182 regarding delivery. To learn more about Fish, call 385-8020, or write Fish, Box 282, McHenry, Illinois, 60050. God bless you, one and all! M.G. Tuesday, Dec. 6, is the date of the monthly free blood pressure screening at the First United Methodist church; the time 7 p.m. The attendance at these blood pressure screenings has been growing constantly, and as this is an on-going free service each month, it is easy to keep a close check on the individual's blood pressure. The time of the blood pressure screenings alter­ nates; one month the time is 1 p.m., and then the following month, it is held at 7 p.m. The reason for alternating the time is to be able to serve more people, as many are unable to come in the af­ ternoon. This is a free monthly service at the First United Methodist church, 3717 West Main street, in conjunction with the local hospital. Luncheon- Potluck Style Holiday Party The McHenry Women's club will hold its Christmas party at the Dec, 8 meetihg. a potluck luncheon will be served at 12 o'clock at the McHenry VFW. The Sound Weavers quartet from Burlington, Wis., will entertain and add to what should be a delightful af­ ternoon. Members are reminded to bring a gift for a child or can goods for Fish's Christmas baskets. Happiness is giving. The first mock wedding of the West campus school year was held Friday, Nov. 18, and again was a big success. The wedding took place in the auditorium at the school at 12 o'clock with a large crowd in at­ tendance. This is the iirst time in the 8 years of mock weddings that a double wedding was performed. The wedding was put together by the family living class under the direction of Mrs. Ames, teacher. Each class member performed a specific role in the wedding and wrote their own in­ vitations and ceremonies. Research was also done into traditions, customs, laws, and types of ceremonies. Participants in the ceremony were Linda Janik and Helen Arient, brides; Tom Hughes and John Milinac, grooms; Greg Smith and John Faudel, fathers of the brides. Attendants in­ cluded Patty Smith, Anita Rebel, Pat Jablonski, Lisa Milano, Art Bentz, Bill Goddin, Rob Thomas and Tim Hughes. Patty Gundlach and Kevin Stilling officiated. The mock rite was the end result of months of intensive study involving the courtship period, pre- nuptial counseling, and the manner of preparation for the toedding. The ceremony itself is only a step in the classroom lessons. The fictional bridal couple will remain "married" through the remainder of the course term and class studies will evolve from the marital differences, adjustments and family living ANNUAL SALAD LUNCHEON and FASHION SHOW WED.

An interesting follow-up after the wedding was a trip taken by the class to divorce court. Should the "man and wife" decide to dissolve the relationship, the class will pursue that course of action in lesson form. Mrs. Ames commented that the students view the class with a concerned and serious attitude.- The statistics on the divorce rate prove an inspiring incentive. The students are well aware that very few, in actuality, live "happily ever after." ALL ABOARD!
