PAGE 8 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, MARCH 29. 197H Tumble Ups On Display Staff Photos By Wayne Gay lord Shown above is Carol Bradley of McHenry with a small sampling of her "Tumble up" collection. The collection of over 30 glass pieces will be on display at the McHenry Public library for the next two weeks. On display at the McHenry Public library for the next two weeks is the "Tumble up" collection of Carol Bradley of McHenry. \ "Tumble ups" are small glass pitchers that were originally used at the bedsides of sick people at the turn of the century. They were designed to hold enough water to last a sick'person through the night. According to Ms. Bradley, the cups were placed on top of the pitchers to prevent bugs from falling into the water during the night. She began collecting the glass antiques five years ago and her collection now numbers thirty-five. She now faces a problem in finding more tumble ups to add to her collection. "These glass antiques are unusual and very hard to find," said Carol. "They can only be found at certain antique shops, and sometimes at house sales." Many of the collection on display are from the depression era and most are valued at $25 to $50 although some are worth up to $100. The collection features different types of glass and patterns, including vaseline glass, which is stretched but not frosted, and hand painted gold leaf patterns. The "tumble ups" were decorated so that when the cup is placed on the pitcher, the patterns on each object would match. Also included in the display are hand-painted miniature "tumble ups" from Germany. The miniatures were designed to hold a small amount of alcohol.

NAME ADDRESS CITY -ZIP MONEY BACK GUARANTEE FOR UNUSED PORTION" Theater Croup To Perform In Woodstock April 16 "The Night of January 16th," a courtroom style mystery drama by Ayn Rand, will be presented in the courtroom of the Old Courthouse and Jail in Woodstock, Sunday, April 16, at 8 p.m. Sponsored by the Old Courthouse and Jail, "The Night of January 16th" was especially staged for historic Illinois courthouses by the Victory Gardens theater in Chicago. Dennis ' Zacek, director of the play and artisitic director for Victory Gardens, said "This is an exciting and absorbing melodrama that plays beautifully in a cour thouse setting." The 120 year-old Woodstock landmark structure, formerly housing the official offices of McHenry county, was restored starting in 1973 and is now the home of a major restaurant and a series of specialty shops. The original courtroom was retained for historical displays and special events such as theater performances. • Founded in 1974, the Victory Gardens theater is a showcase for Chicago playwrights, directors and actors. Zacek, who is also an associate professor in theater at Loyola university, staged more than forty shows and has received five nominations for Joseph Jefferson awards (Chicago's top theatrical honor) for best director and best production. "The Night of Janaury 16th," first staged in New York in 1935, dramatizes the case of a woman on trial for the murder of her employer, who was also her lover. The wife of the deceased man and her father as well as other witnesses are on hand to testify and Ayn Rand pits the opposing philosophies of. the accused and the accusers against each other as the trial proceeds. The jury for the trial will be selected from the audience, and actors have learned alternate conclusions to the play, depending upon the jury's finding of "guilty" or "not guilty." The program is funded in part by the Illinois Arts council, a state agency, and by the National endowment for the arts, a federal agency, in an effort to provide first rate professional theater in Illinois communities. Dinner-theater arrangements are available and reservations may be made by calling the Old Courthouse inn. Submit First Electrical Code For Agriculture A national electrical code for agriculture, the first of its kind, is being produced and written. It will be submitted for con sideration to the National Fire Protection association. Among those serving on the drafting committee is Robert Fairbairn, manager of the farm automation group for the farm and home division of FS Services. The effort is spearheaded by Ward Cross, formerly with the Country Companies and now on the staff of the Texas Farm bureau. Fairbairn said that the present national electrical code is more applicable to manufacturing and residential purposes than to farms. So the writing committee is ex tracting portions from the national code and shaping them to fit agricultural applications. When completed and if finally accepted by the association, the committee foresees that it will supplement the existing national code. GROUP. INC. P.O. BOX 143 McHINHY III *0040 815/385-1771 What to Do When Your Pet Is Lost Step 1-Call Animal Control, 338-7040, immediately! Visit the next day ; a personal visit can mean saving your pet's life. Then call every other day for 2 weeks or so.Your pet may not be picked up right away. Step 2-Run an ad in local papers for at least 2 weeks. Lost and found ads in most papers are usually free. Many people who have taken in a lost or stray animal will keep it in their home and look in the papers to try and find the owner. Step 3-Tell your friends and neighbors to be on the lookout, especially the neighborhbod kids. Step 4-Call all area veterinarians to see if anyone has called about finding a pet like yours. Step 5-Call the Sanitary District to see if they picked up a dead animal answering your pet's description. Step 6-Put 3x5 index cards with a description of your pet and your phone number in neighborhood stores, laun- drymats, etc. Step 7-Call both Pet Welfare, 385-1771, and Helping Paws, 459-2641. Be sure to check back in a few days, and again in a week or two. Of all the stray animals that are picked up, 80 percent are destroyed because owners either don't claim them or they don't know where and how to look. Don't just look in your own neighborhood, animals can stray quite far from home. A large dbg can travel 30 miles a day. Above all, have a name Heat Conservation Homeowners and building managers will have an in d i v i d u a l i z e d , s i m p l e assessment of rooftop heat loss through a program based on aerial infrared photographs.

Thompson said recently that he would comply with President Carter's request for Illinois State Police to provide security for United States Marshals serving notice for United Mine Workers to return to work. Gov. Thompson said: "Officials of UMW locals in Illinois have personally assured me that there will be no violence in the coalfields of Illinois. I accept that assurance. We have the best record of any coal producing state in preventing violence and avoiding confrontations. Our people Are law abiding people and I expect that good record to continue." Unforgiving Daughter Q. My daughter is very bitter, unforgiving and refuses to have anything to do with me for the rest of her life. I was a widow for two years and then I decided to marry a very nice man whom I had known for years. His wife died three months after my husband. My daughter didn't approve of my getting married again, and I haven't heard from her for two years. She said if I call her on the phone she would hang up on me. Please tell me if I should send her gifts or write her letters. This hurts me very much as she is my only daughter. A. You had a perfect right to remarry despite the objections of a possessive daughter. Usually the problem is a possessive mother, but in this case it is refersed. Don't send her letters or gifts, for that will only give her further opportunity to reject you. Instead, work upon her spiritually in absentia, so to speak. By that we mean, ask God for guidance. Then in strange ways that neither you nor we can now think of, you will be given insight in how to reach your daughter. We have personally seen amazing results from the use of such spiritual techniques. Project loving thoughts toward her. Though the girl is mixed up in her emotional reactions, she is open to the working of right thoughts. Ultimately such thoughts can reach her. We have a booklet, This Thing Called Guidance, which has helped others with problems such as yours and a copy of it is on its way to you. Anyone wishing a free copy of this booklet may obtain one by writing to us in care of Box 500, Pawling, NY 12S64. Vacancy Can't Be filled Q. I always felt I was a strong person and would be able to cope with most any kind of a situation, but this has really gotten me down. I can't throw it off. I lost my husband a few months ago. He was 54 years old. We were very close, very happy. My two wonderful children and two grandchildren are so very good to me, and I have no financial problems. It's just that lonely vacancy that can't be filled. Please help me so that I may lead a normal life again. A. We judge by your question that you are about 50 years old, still a young woman. You are, of course, under shock, and it is normal that you should feel lonely, with a great void in your life. Give your husband back to God and accept your new status. Then believe that your life can still be rich and full. Thank God for your children, your grandchildren, your material blessings and your good health. Believe that you have many good years before you. Then go out into life and get active. God will lead you to new peace of mind and ultimately to new happiness. Grief Is Eating Her Up Q. My husband had an affair with my sister. It was not a brief encounter, but lasted several months without me even suspecting anything was wrong with my marriage. He denied loving her and said it was purely sexual. After weeks of despair I reconciled with him, for thechildren, all under 6 years of age. My problem is tiat I cannot forgive. I don't trust or love my husband. As for my sister I can't bear to think of her or hear her name. I can't forgive and forget. The grief is eating me up more each day. What j d0? A. You have been twice double-crossed -- by your husband your sister. Actually, it is an evil compounded. And that you are terribly crushed is understandable. That you no longer trust your husband is also understandable. Now here is where the advice is hard. To avoid corroding your own spirit, you have got to try to forgive and not hate. This advice is for your own good. But this doesn't mean that an easy trust of these two people is to be suggested. Better keep your eye on them until they have proved that they are sorry for what they did and that they have stopped it. You ve got a tough problem. But with faith and strength of character you can handle it If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale to SjflSL?1 w*8 colum,nJ' ^rite them in care of Box 500, Pawling, NY,^64 u would like to talk directly with a prayer partner, call Prayer Line (212) 481-1050.
