Rte. 120 Phone: McHenry 385-0783 A Do you know about the home heating system that pulls energy out oi thin air ? Scientists have known for centuries that the air around us is a storehouse of heat energy. But it's only been in recent years that they were able to de­ velop an efficient way to tap that abun­ dant resource--the heat pump. Today, it is the only commercially available heating system that provides an answer to shrinking supplies of other fuels. How the heat pump works: Basically, the heat pump moves heat from one place to another. It uses elec-' tricity to extract heat from a limitless source--the heat in outdoor air. During winter, enough heat remains in the air-- even on the coldest and cloudiest days-- to be extracted by the pump and trans­ ferred indoors as clean, flameless heat. And during warm weather, the process automatically reverses, removing excess indoor heat and humidity like an air conditioner. Better efficiency. In short, the heat pump does the job of both a furnace and an air conditioner. But tfeferefs an important difference. In northern Ittmras the heat pump can produce more than 1 units of heat energy for every unit it consumes. That's better efficiency than any other current heating system. That could mean signif­ icant long-term savings on heating costs. To get the full advantages of the heat pump, it's important to get a qualify product, properly installed and reliably serviced.

The Young Warriors defeated Woodstock 41-37. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of February 16, 1967) % A spectacular blaze broke out suddenly late Saturday night, raced through an eight- apartment, uncompleted apartment building on Millstream drive and com­ pletely gutted the interior. Although no definite estimate of damage was made as of Wednesday, the loss is known to run into many thousands of dollars. The Fred Weidrich home on Rt. 31, Ringwood, was com­ pletely ransacked and a number of valuable items stolen last week. The entry was believed made sometime Wednesday night. McHenry won its first con­ ference game of the season this past weekend on the hotne hardwood. The victim was- Crystal Lake by a score of 76- 67. This game followed on the heels of 76-51 defeat handed the Warriors the previous night by the Broncos of Barrington. Tom Dougherty, MCHS senior Hwt., was injured in the championship match of the conference wrestling tour­ nament by Coleman of North Chicago. Tom later won the match, but the cartilage and tendons in his shoulder were completely torn. Because of this injury, he was unable to enter the district tourney, and thus ended up with a 9-0-0 record. Many thought of Tom as a definite state champ heavyweight contender. Extension Comments iBy George J. Young, Extension Adviser, McHenry County, University of Illinois)' Avoid Metallic Taste Avoid cooking vegetables -- particularly artichokes and asparagus -- in iron or alumi­ num pans.

Full information is available at any VA office. Q - Are the wives and children of veterans eligible for educational assistance from the VA? A -- Yes, if the veteran dies of a service-connected condition; or if living, has a service- connected disability considered by the VA to be total and per­ manent in nature. Q -- Under what cir­ cumstances may the VA assist a veteran toward purchase of an automobile? A ~ Veterans with service after Sept. 15, 1940, who have service-connected loss or loss of- use of one or both hands or feet, or permanent impairment of vision of both eyes to a prescribed degree may qualify for a one-time grant of not more than $3,300 toward purchase of an automobile. Q -^1 applied for and received National Service Life In­ surance coverage in 1946. At that time I took a five-year level premium term plan. Can this policy be converted to a permanent plan with stabilized premium rates? A -- Yes. The monthly premium for the permanent plan would probably be higher than your current monthly premiums. However, there are many other benefits that go along with a permanent plan, such as paid up insurance and cash value. NEW LICENSE DEADLINE , Secretary of State Alan J. Dixon tias extended the Feb. 15 deadline for displaying 1977 license plates to March l - the latest date permitted by law - because of the numerous hardships the unprecedented winter weather is imposing on many lllinoisans. ^American Viewpoints Justice is as strictly due between neighbor nations as between neighbor cit­ izens.
