It is a not-for- profit organization, certified by both the Illinois Department of Public Health and the U.S. Department of Health, Education and Welfare. It provides services only to Medicare recipients and handles all the processing of Medicare claims for the ser­ vices provided directly with Medicare. To qualify for this Medicare covered agency's services, av Medicare recipient must meet the following requirements: 1) Medicare recipient must be homebound; 2) Medicare recipient's physician must prescribe home health care services and set up a home health plan of treat­ ment; 3) Medicare recipient must need any one of the following three services: A) Part-time Skilled Nursing, B) Physical Therapy, C) Speech Therapy.

According to Bill Rinaldi, executive director for the agency, the Medicare recipient benefits from the agency's services because the patient is treated in his own home in a more relaxed atmosphere than a hospital and the agene? helps the patient's family in becoming familiar with the patient's needs and un­ derstanding the patient's illness. The primacy purpose of the agency is to help the patient become independent again after illness. Once a patient's Bid the Painter a Fond Farewell / ' 4 .

The library-balcony is lined with oak bookcases, the broad vertical oak-beams define the space and accent the sky­ light. Vertical oak wall paneling below the balcony give a pleasing unity to the entire space. Due for a paint job? Given the choice, most people vow they would rather go through a move than a paint job any day. Even if the entire family!*; able to evacuate the space and sleeps sound­ ly in a nearby hotel that first night, the average painting is a terrible ordeal. In major cities, it is generally assumed that in­ terior spaces require a new coat of paint every three years--and that's stretching it a bit. Suburban and coun­ ty interiors may hold up for five, if the youngsters are perfect angels and treat wall surfaces as "fragile." But, ^whether it's three or five years, that paint job looms large in the mind of the average homemaker and is dreaded like the plague. Under the circumstances, it is not surprising to find more and more exposed brick and hardwood panel­ ing used in interiors these days.

Whether used to­ gether or individually, hard­ wood and brick provide a rich background for every decorative style, and period. Beeause of the variety of hardwoods available and the incredibly varied finishes used today, lifetime walls can be whatever you want them to be. Even oak, usu­ ally thought of* as rugged, rustic, and informal can be used to create an ele­ gance often associated feith rosewood. In a home de­ signed by noted architect Edward Durell Stone, oak walls are used in the kitch­ en, dining room, living room and family room giving unity to the entire inner space. By > changing the width of the oak panels and varying their placement- some vertical and some horizontal/ each room has a definite individuality within the overall plan. In the living room, heavy oak beams frame a skylight and form a library-balcony. Be­ low the balcony, thin oak strips, running vertically up the wall, create a warm living area. For the family room, fac­ ing the 8winming pool. Mr. Stone used oak doors to line an entire wall, placing thin, horizontal strips of oak above them running all the way up to the ceiling and a skylight. . In addition to the bfe&Ur tiful effects created with these oak-lined interiors, the owners need not shudder everytime someone pushes a chair against the wall or ac­ cidentally knocks a package against it. Oak practically thrives on abuse. It is ex­ tremely strong and resists any number of hard knocks. The strength of oak and its durability is matched by other equally handsome hardwoods in homes and apartments. And, whether you'choose walnut, maple, cherry, or birch, you can GALILEO Galileo Galilei (1564-1642), an Italian and one of the great­ est scientists of all times, was trained in medicine, mathemat­ ics, and astronomy. He was professor of mathematics at the University of Pisa and taught both mathematics and astronomy at the University of Padua. He became a follower of the Copernican system; that is, he gave up the idea that the Earth is the center of the universe and defended the theory that it is one of several planets revolving around the Sun. Although Galileo' did not invent the telescope, he was one of the first scientists to use it in a systematic way to ob­ serve the moon, Sun, planets, Milky Way, and stars. One of his most important astronomi­ cal discoveries was the four inner moons of Jupiter. This significant discovery supported the Copemicsn concept of the universe because it demonstrat­ ed that celestial objects revolve around other planets, much as the moon revolves around the Earth, and are not compelled to orbit the esrth as sncient astronomers and philosophers had taught. Another of Galileo's dis­ coveries was the phases of Venus, similar to the phases of the moon. Galileo correctly attributed the planet's phases to its motion around the Sun, thus demonstrating : that at least one planet goes around the Sun and not around the Esrth as nearly all other people of Gslileo's time believed. Once again he found evidence that supported Copernican ideas about the universe. With his telescope, Galileo saw sunspots on the Sun, and mountains, valleys, and craters the^%oon. showed that the Sun rotates on its sxis. Although he wss in­ correct in interpreting the dark, flat plsins of the moon as oceans (He named them mare, the Latin word for sea or ocean.), he did suggest that the moon, with its mountains and valleys, resembles the Earth, thus categorizing the Earth as an astronomical object and denying it special creation. Again, Galileo dealt a blow to ancient ideas. With his telescope he also discovered that there are stars that can not be seen with the unaided eye, and that the Milky Way consists of myriads of stars._ Because he was a radical thinker, challenging conven­ tional interpretations of the universe that had dominsted people's thinking for 1500 yesrs, he fell into disfsvor with the established political and religious bureaucracies of his day. He stood trial for his astronomical ideas and inter­ pretations that he based on observational and experimental evidence, was found guilty, and subsequently was condemned to house arrest for the last 10 years of his life.
