Formerly located at the Woodstock center, larger quarters were necessary and thanks to the Grace Lutheran church, the Closet now occupies the entire upstairs in the large yellow house between the Lutheran church and St. Mary's school, just two blocks west of the railway station. The Closet is open from 10 to 5:30 every Friday. In cases of emergency it will be opened at other times. Phone calls may be made to 338-2770 (Tam- meus) or 338-0559 (Wegner). On Fridays call 338-4828. The Closet stocks a very large supply of children's and adult clothing supplied by Church Women United throughout the county and any individuals who wish to con­ tribute. Many beautiful items are donated. Everything given should be clean. Prices are minimal - 5,10,25 cents and occasionally up to $1.00. Anyone who feels he can pay more may make a donation. Any who cannot afford to pay anything should merely bring a note from a referring agency or individual and we will give the clothing as directed. Volunteers from Church Women United staff the Clothing Closet. This includes churches from Woodstock, McHenry, Pistakee, Ringwood, Greenwood, Crystal Lake, Ridgefield, Wonder Lake and Johnsburg. They mend and press and sell the clothing. Anyone wishing to be a volunteer may call the above phone numbers. Schools and agencies are asked to inform people about this service and send them to the Clothing Closet. It can save Jist can't git me mind ad­ justed t' acceptin' the attitude toward th' people who commit terrible crimes, which seems t' be th' popular trend o' thinkin' nowadays. Seems there's a waste o' compassion fer the offenders, a puttin' th' blame on society. No one offends society mind ye. There ain't any reason fer excusin' mur­ der, rape, 'n felonious acts against society, in me mind. The rep^aH^o' the death sen­ tence only encourages more crime, an'.seems sad that convicted criminals git away wi' servin' a sentence only partially, an' 're back in society again, a practicin' their lawlessness afore ye know it. It's no wonder we're a livin' in fear 0' our lives, these days, afeared t' leave our homes fer a spell, fer fear o' findin' van­ dalism on return. Much's due t' drug problems.* It jist don't seem right t' condone the less harmful drug, when we're aware o' hundreds, an' mebbe thousands o' young folks, livin' lives, ruined wi' experimentin' wi' the weed, leadin' on t' the heavier stuff. Me heart's heavy wi' the knowin' o' the ruination o' young folk, known since they wuz tykes, a fallin' prey t' the temptations, an' a gittin' so involved that they're lost. Fr'm reliable sources comes th' information that our laws pervent the units o' law en­ forcement to perform, 'less the culprit 's caught in th' act o' sellin' certain drugs. Ne'er in me lifetime ha' I seen sich passivity, an' in all me born days has there been sich a need fer some stronger control o' harmful narcotics, let alone the loose literature, available t' the families and the county much money. Profits from the sale of the clothing are used to buy items needed at once, such as underwear and diapers, and for services for migrants in the county. The Clothing Closet gives those in financial need an opportunity to select good quality used clothing at small cost.

's no wonder, the increase in young folks a goin' astray. Like a lot o' sheep, a bein' led t' th' slaughter, the weak uns seem t' lead th' masses. We, elders, shouldn't rest, 'til the temp­ tations 're removed. In me own day, parents needn't be so feared o' sich harms acomin't' the offspring. We, lived in an era, proud t' be included in the roll o' improvin' society. We've been took, whilst we wuz so int'rested in promotin' the material things in life, an' the inflated paychecks, in this inflated economy. Don't be misled by passivists, refusin't' admit they've let 'emselves be led inter the state o' things we know t'day. It's the result o' purposeful attempts t' break down our way o' life, affectin' the moral fibre o' our youth. We c'n be thankful fer the younguns opposed t' th' trend, an' a try in' t' do somethin' about it. They need better laws. Consolation in the fact that there's so many "Good kids," jist ain't enough. Organizations fer the benefit o' buildin' fine citizens o' our young folk, can't do the job fer those who won't be influenced by membership. So, it's necessary fer the people t' take a stand, an' see that those in control o' our gover'ment take necessary steps t' protec' the young an' inexperienced, wi' laws that c'n do some good. It's time fer the people t' act, an' do away wi' the organized crime which, like an eatin' cancer, 's spreadin' through our land. Let's keep America from a goin' the way o' other societies, an' build her up, not let her go down t' the depths o' despair. Grandma Radtke Townsquare Players In Production An invitation is extended to break out of the cold winter doldrums by enjoying Robert Anderson's warm and witty, adult comedy, •"You Know I Can't Hear you When the Water's Running". It will be presented by the Townsquare Players at the Woodstock Opera House Feb. 3,4, 9 and 10. The production is comprised of four short plavs, featuring different settings and characters that basically share the most human of comedies - the laughter and tears relationship between men and women. The opening play, "A Shock of Recognition", portrays a contemporary theater dilemma; how much reality is too much reality. A successful modern writer, the producer, his young secretary and an unemployed actor are involved in an hilarious discussion regarding his current play. Mark Doolen, Barrington, plays the reluctant producer, Herb Miller. Over the past three years, Opera House audiences have seen Mark in a variety of roles, most recently as Mr. Babcok in "Mame". Jack Barnstable, the in­ tellectual playwright, is played by Nate Dahlin, Crystal Lake, who made his debut last year as Igor in "Cactus Flower" and the musical "Annie Get Your Gun". Laura Curry, Wood­ stock, the secretary, has ap­ peared in everything from children's theater to musicals during the last four years. Her latest play was "Mame" playing the dual roles of Madam Branislowski and Pegeen. The role of the hungry actor Richard Pawling, is performed by David Huffman, native of Woodstock, who v returns onstage after an eight- year hiatus, during which he served in behind-the-scenes capacities for both the Fine SUSAN I.ROMANI and Mrs. Philip F.
