MayJ3, 1965 THE McHFNRY PLATNDEALER Announce Pqtron Purchase J>lan For Country Art Fair SPRING PROJECTS PROVE HAZARD TO PUBLIC SERVICE ninth ™ i ™°,L " Cooney fright) co-chairman of the ?hP ^ ory Coun,ry Art Fair, discusses plans for the fair with Mrs. Gertrude Gladstone of McHenry, who is chairman of the Patron's Purchases Committee. They explain that one can become a patron merely by pledging any amount beginning with $5, toward the purchase of igTnr^n ;ft MQrtry Art Fair t0 be held June 18 19 and 20 at the McHenry Junior High School. The patronis allowed to make his selection before the fair is opened to the public. "Becoming an Art Fair patron is simple and fun", states Mrs. Carol Ann Cooney of McHenry, co-chairman of the ninth annual McHenry Country Afct Fair. She explains that one can become a patron merely by pledging any amount, beginning with $5, toward the purchase of something at the Art Fair to be held June IS, 19 and 20 at the McHenry Junior High School. The patron may increase his expenditure if he wants at the time of the selection, or if he does not find anything to please him his commitment will be gladly refunded. Last year there were ninetyseven patrons and they purchased a total of $5,300 worth of art work. Patrons come from all walks of life and are linked by a' common interest in art. Several graduating classes have used this method for purchasing a gift for their school. Dr. Bernard Neuchiller of Woodstock has a Patron's Purchase painting hanging in the reception room of his office, "I have received many comments from my patients about how much they enjoy Bob Gray's painting," he- says. Mr. and Mrs. Jam£s Vinci of Crystal Lake have several paintings they purchased as patrons hanging in their new home. "It is amazing how much talent there is in our community. This is a good way to bring out this talent," they state. Richard Matt of McHenry, who travels extensively in connection with his job of producing films, is an enthusiastic supporter of the Patron's Purchases Plan. He has viewed art in many European counttries and finds that the McHenry Country Art Fair exhibits art that is interesting and exciting, "It is gratifying to find a community of this size actively interested in creative arts," he comments. He has purchased several paintings, among them one by Lori Whilhelm, who is featured in this years 'One Man Show', and he has hung them in his film studio and his home. "With the number of people purchasing painting at the Art Fair, the real advantage of being a patron is that he is entitled 1o choose his painting before the exhibit is opened to "the public," points out Mrs. Gertrude Gladstone, chairman of the Patron's Purchases Committee. Patrons will be contacted a few days before the sixteenth of June, which is the day set aside for patron selection. Also on this committee are Mrs. Harry Eckland and Mrs. Alford Johnston of McHenry, and Mrs. Harry J. Cupp and Mrs. Harry Dillon of Crystal Lake. For additional information, anyone of the committee members may be contacted. SCOUTS AS AIDES The Blackhawk Area Council, Inc., Boy Scouts of America, has been invited to nominate an Explorer - - older boy member -- as a junior scientific aide. Two Explorers will be selected to spend July and August at America's northernmost Artie Research Laboratory at Point Barrow, Alaska, on the shore of the Arctic Ocean, it was announced by Reinhold G. Miller, Scout Executive, of the council. The United States Navy's Office of Naval Research has invited the Boy Scouts of America to select two young men for this unusual service.

Try Nye Drug and see. 5-13-65 The telephone company has been qijite successful in keeping their old arch enemies-- gophers, groundhogs and other gnawing rodents -- from destroying their underground cable network. But with people, it's a different story. Last year there were 800 Illinois Bell cables cut by homeowners and contractors armed' with power shovels, bulldozers and long-handled spades. Sharp-toothed rodents accounted for about six. Each cable cut snuffed out telephone service, sometimes to an entire community, sometimes to police and fire departments, hospitals or doctors. "As spring digging projects, get underway, the danger "of cable cuts is increasing," said Illinois Bell wire chief, T. P. Konen. "The only way to avoid them is for diggers to call our Repair Service collect before they dig. We'll be glad to point out the cable routes at no charge to homeowners or contractors," he added. Though underground cable can be damaged, it provides far better service than was available in the "good old days" when telephone service was little better than the weather. Snow, sleet, ice and winds frequently snapped the exposed wires. To prevent damage from rodents, underground cable is now. coated with layers of plastic, aluminum and steel. Air pressure keeps them safe from damage by moisture. To prevent people from damaging them, signs are posted along cable routes which read: "Warning, Underground Cable. Before digging in this vicinity please call (collect) or notify Illinois Bell Telephone Co. Repair Service.'1 Outside of metropolitan Chicago last year, more than 14,- 000 people did call before they dug. In 13,504 (96 per cent) of these cases, hidden cable was found dangerously close to the spot where digging was planned. According to Konen, there were 434 calls to the Repair Service here seeking information on buried cable. In 338 cases, damage was probably averted. For the state as a whole, there were slightly fewer cable cuts in 1964 than 1963. But( chances increase as more cable is placed underground, he said.
