Because dogs and cats I view each tree and rock as their • own territory, moving away I represents a traumatic shock »for pets. Each animal has • staked out by scent-posting of J the outer perimeters of its » territory with its odor and • scratch marks, in the same I manner as wolves and cougars. I To lessen the shock to your • pet, first make sure it travels I well. A visit to your pveterinarian might be best for | tm animal that becomes sick* » He can advise and prescribe ! tranquilizers. • When moving day arrives, be J sure to confine your pet to a » small room and try to spend • time reassuring it. Pets, J especially cats, have disap- • peared during the upheavel and » never been located, forcing the I family to leave it behind. • Take all possible possessions > of the pet, including old bowls, } blankets, toys, and even favored furniture. The old ( possessions will bring the scent < and some reminders to the new } home. Try to put the old £ belongings in the same £ locations as they were in the old •LJuMne. Let the animal scent- I post the territory by leash or other restraint. Set up the food \ and water bowls as soon as > possible. > Do not let the animal roam i for 2 to 3 weeks, even if that was vthe custom before. It is best to ? leash walk pets all the time > anyway, and it is against the ;! law to allow dogs to roam. Also, ij many places have leash laws for cats. Many homesick £ animals have tried to find the •" way home and contrary to legend, most never make it i back. They end up as strays or I victims of the highways. • Other precautions can and I should include identification • tags fastened to a secure collar, ! proof of a current rabies • vaccination, and if you are -crossing state lines, a health ' certificate. ! Common sense and some planning can make the move much more pleasant for you and your pet. DOGS FOR ADOPTION Miniature Poodle, neutered male, 14 years, black, housebroken, all shots.

Lakemoor-I^ilymoor Margaret Karas 385-4934 as it is usually Lloyd spends time in hospitals. who Chivalry In > '78 Very Much In Evidence On cold rainy Friday night, the twelfth of May, our favorite no. 2 daughter Maribeth Karas, was driving home after mid­ night from her job in Lake Zurich. A large dog ran in front of the car, and in swerving to avoid contact, the car ended up straddling the middle of a water filled median strip. Maribeth had been cautioned about what to do in emergen­ cies at night. When a young man stopped to ask if she needed help, she cautiously opened a widow of the locked door, and asked him to call home. At one a.m. our phone rang. "Your daughter is all right, but the car's stuck on Route 12. My name is Frank, and I'll go back and stay with her until you get there". What parent doesn't know the gut feeling of fear when a call like that is received? We were at the scene within 20 minutes. There we found a woeful daughter in the ditch and a nice young man named Frank, waiting and watching. To the Franks in this world, the hearts of many parents are grateful. PLAY BALL The Pigtail Softball league of McHenry played last Thursday evening. The pitchers on op­ posing teams were Cari Kawell and Becky Mieszala, good friends and neighbors.

LOSS A dear old friend and neigh­ bor, Gustav Wakat, died May 13 in a Belvidere hospital, where he had been a patient for a few days. He left quietly, but in our memories he is still with us. His love for gardening, his ability to look at a situation calmly, think it over, and then proceed to do the necesMry work, is an ability very few of us "hurry-up and do it" persons have. His enjoyment of a game of cards, a good German waltz, a glass of brandy, these were all his legacy to us. Our lives are the fuller because of dear Papa Wakat. • * L.L.L.L.

Instead of burning scarce fuels, the heat pump uses electricity to capture heat from a limitless energy source The sun It's the most practical, efficient heating and cooling system you can install today And it's dramatically changing the way we use energy. Turns heat energy outside in and inside out. The same principle that makes the heat pump work is already at work in your home inside your relrigerator In fact, a heat pump is a lot like a relrigerator There's an indoor unit that consists of a coil and fan There's an outdoor unit that consists of a coil, fan and compressor Piping connects them Inside the system, a relrigerant circulates, "carrying" the heat from inside out and outside in ' Even on the cloudiest, coldest day of winter, there's still solar heat in the air The refrigerant in the outdoor coil absorbs this heat, is compressed and pumped inside The heat comes out, keeping you warm r In summer, the process is reversed. Warm air inside the home is blown over the indoor coil The refrigerant absorbs this , heat, is pumped outside, then condensed The heat comes out. leaving you cool The amazing heat pump is installed on the outside of the home and is about the same size as a conventional central air conditioning unit No matter how the temperature changes, the heat pump automatically makes the necessary changes to keep you comfortable And the unit filters the air and dehumidifies, too Produces more energy than it uses. That's why the heat pump is a real energy conservation machine In a typical Illinois winter, a heat pump provides at least 1 5 units of heat energy for every equivalent unit of electricity it uses Unlike systems that merely use up energy to make heat, the heat pump uses electricity to produce more energy than it uses It's this extra energy bonus that makes the heat pump a smart investment The initial cost is a little higher But the operating cost is lower So in the long run, the heat pump can help you save - How to get one. You can often replace your present system with a heat pump Installing a heat pump in a new home is even easier Either way, it's important to get a quality product and have it properly installed and serviced For the names of qualified installers in your area, call G W Berkheimer Co (Westinghouse Distributors).
