Our substitute mail-female, Karen Robeson, has done an excellent job in delivering our mail. We hope she will be available if needed in the future. VILLAGE NEWS Village clerk, Pat Morrison, will be at the Lakemoor municipal building Monday evenings from 7 to 9. Les Nejedly, building officer, will also be available at this time for the issuance of building permits. If Monday evening is not convenient, an appointment can be made with Mrs. Morrison by calling 385-1117. WOOD DUCKS Ex-Lakemoorite, Henry Garn, whose avocation is watching our feathered friends, called attention to the ob­ servations made about wood ducks. No way does the male duck resemble the female. We finally saw one colorful male member. With the round head and backward crest, the green, purple black and white markings, the male makes up in beauty for what he and the females lack in graceful flight. Glad to know there is a dif­ ference. HAPPY DAYS Birthday joys are wished for Jo Bartelt April 28, and Laura Meyer May 30. The first week in May finds Helen Para adding a year of memories on the second. May 3 is a very popular date shared by Kathleen Gosell, Albert F. Kunz, Linda Blake and Joe Landl. Have a good year. GRAND-BABY Myra and Stan Zabroski became grandparents for the eighth time with the birth of Jennifer Lynn April 10, at Condell hospital in Libertyville. Baby girl Greco weighed in at 6 lbs., even. The happy parents are Pat (formerly Zabroski) and Ron Greco of Vernon Hills. FEELING BETTER This has been a better week for Carl and Jackie Stromley.

Jackie's mother came through surgery successfully, and Jackie is also improving. Marilyn Ryan had to visit a doctor. The pressure of election. time for the library board of trustees, which was her complete responsibility, put her under a bit of strain. Both she and daughter Kileen are much better now. LL.C.C.I. The Lily Lake Conservation club is now a legal not-for-profit organization, having received its Charter No. 36168. A public meeting regarding progress with the Lily Lake problem will be announced soon. It is good to see more water in the lake. A variety of quite large fish were found on the south side of the lake, a result of winter kill. LOST AND FOUND The Hueckstaedt family has had two traumatic experiences recently. Last week their dog "Boy", broke his chain and enjoyed several days of freedom. "Boy" was finally found about two blocks away, and is now home with his happy family. The other occasion of was the disappearance of a favorite rag-type blanket which Alma was greatly attached to. (Her security?) That too, has returned with wandering son, Rusty, who had taken it to Texas to cover his hamster. Is everybody happy now? COMMUNITY CALENDAR April 26 - Medical van, Lakemoor municipal building, 5 to 8 p.m. Minimum charge for a good examination. Farmers' Influence On Prices May 3 SUNday. Wednesday is Seven days without makes one weak. GOD BLESS prayer Button Up Buttons originally became a status symbol during the 12th century in France. Men and women usually still button their garments in opposite because of practices started then. The men's garments, since most people are right-handed, were tailored to button from left to right. Women who could afford fine wardrobes also employed handmaidens at that time. Clothes designers put womens' buttons in a convenient position for the maids who helped dress their mistresses. "Farmers hold tneir fate in their own hands," according to Jim Lucas, county executive director of the McHenry County Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation (ASCS) service. "I am convinced that only through heavy farmer par­ ticipation in the reserve program and the wheat and feed grain set-aside programs can we come out of the price slump we're in now. Through voluntary, individual par­ ticipation in farm programs, farmers can achieve the organization and the clout necessary to affect the marketplace," Lucas said. , "The advantages of the reserve are clear - store now for future profit and receive help with your storage costs. Many farmers have been holding their grain since harvest. Placing it in the reserve gives them the op­ portunity to make a profit when prices rise. We as farmers need to send a message to the grain traders - we won't sell cheap," he said. "Not only is it important to insulate surpluses from the market," he said, "We must try to prevent a further buildup in supplies. The set-aside program offers each farmer the opportunity to make an individual decision on how much acreage he or she wishes to plant and how much he of she wants to hold out of produc­ tion," he said. "While the program is voluntary, only those who participate will -be eligible for commodity loans, target price payments and disaster benefits. Those far­ mers in the western part of the state who have received low yield payments and our wheat producers know full well the value of these benefits," he noted. Producers in McHenry county have received over $28,400 in 1977 wheat deficiency payments. Producers on 634 farms in Hancock county have already received $1,614,000 in low yield disaster payments due to drought in 1977. More than a thousand additional applications have been filed and payments in the county are expected to exceed $4 million dollars. "This loss could occur for farmers in McHenry county in 1978," Lucas said. Goodwill Needs Public Support For Programs placement support prepares them for entry into competitive employment," Mrs. Adams reported. The' purpose of Goodwill Industries is to give people a chance to help themselves, but to accomplish this, the agency needs the support of the public in the form of clothing and housewares, according to Mrs. Nick (Agnes) Adams, local representative. The Goodwill truck will be in McHenry, Friday, April 28. For pickup service or information call Mrs. Adams. "Goodwill helps people to adjust and accept their han­ dicaps and to recognize and use their abilities instead of with­ drawing because of their disabilities." "Goodwill uses modern prevocational testing to determine individual abilities and aids the handicapped to develop vocational goals. Work adjustment programming, under the capable guidance of supervisors and counselors, helps them to acquire skills and good work habits. Goodwill's transitional employment and The Veterans administration hospital system treated daily an average of 180,000 beneficiaries in 1977, according to VA statistics. In fiscal 1979, this total is estimated to reach nearly 184,000. Veterans with service- connected disabilities will receive monthly compensation payments totaling $5.3 billion in Fiscal Year 1979, according to VA statistics. Can't Say It In Words Q. My husband has a girl friend he says he loves only as a friend. She is 18 and he's 41. We've been married 21 happy years. We're together all the time, even on our jobs. But he says I don't love him. I've never been the type of person to say in words that I loved him, but thought by my action he could see I loved him. I've always been true and faithful to him. He says he hasn't been happy with me for years and that she gives him love and attention which I have never done. But all they do is talk. He doesn't run around on me. Could just a friend mean this much to a married man? If I'm at fault please advise, and I'll try to accept You are at fault in not practicing one of the basic dements in relationship. William James, the great psychologist, said: "The greatest of all desires is the desire to be appreciated." tt is amazing that a mature woman would not be as smart as an 18-year-old girl and give her husband constant evidence of her love, not only by action, but by expression. You had just better learn to say, "I love you." Ex-Convict Wants a Chance Q. I am presently in prison and have nine months left. I am here for taking a thousand dollars from a bank deposit where I worked as an auto salesman. Since then I have come to know God and realize that what I did was wrong. When I am released I would like to sell real estate in my hometown. I owe it to myself and my parents to make something of myself. Do you think someone will be willing to take a chance on an ex-convict? A. When you come out of prison, simply believe that God will guide and help you. And He will, that's for sure. If you conduct yourself honestly and sincerely try to do your best, you can be sure that you will find someone who will be willing to employ you and take a chance on your honesty. But never fail such a believing person. Your way back may be hard, but you can make it We have a booklet, You've Got a Futre, 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 may write to us in care of Boat 500, Pawling, NY 12564. Stays at Boy's House Q. Our problem is our daughter. She goes to this boy's house and stays for hours. She doesn't even tell us she is going, and the boy's parents are never home. They both are 17, and we don't know what they do there for so long. She doesn't have any respect for us. We have talked to her but it does no good. We love her but are beginning not to care for her. Thank you for your help. A. The matter for concern is not your daughter's seeming lack of resepct for you. The important consideration is that this girl should not fall into wrong doing. You will never meet your responsibilities creatively by beginning not to care for her. It is most important that you continue to love her, believe in her, have respect for her and show her that you trust her. As you do she will ultimately respond in kind. If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale to discuss in this column, write to them in care of Box 500, Pawling, NY 12564.
