Puppet Show At Shores Library On Sunday, June 25, the McHenry County Performing Arts association (MCPAA) will put on the puppet show "Rapunzel" at the McHenry Shores library, 3211 W. Beach drive, McHenry Shores. Based on the enchanting fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, the play is sure to delight children of all ages. There will be two per­ formances, at 3 p.m. and at 5 p.m. Refreshments will be served during intermission. A small fee will be charged, and all proceeds will go to the MCPAA and the McHenry Shores library. This is a project planned by the McHenry County Per­ forming Arts association, a non-profit organization, to acquaint people with the group's aims, to stimulate interest in all the arts and literature. Much is said about the fact that there are few cultural offerings in the area. The MCPAA is one of the organizations that wants to do something about that. One of its goals is a com­ munity theater where people from all walks of life, with or without stage experience, can take their spot in the limelight or help behind the scenes. A number of folks have already taken a few steps in this direction by taking part in the MCPAA drama workshop already in progress at the McHenry Public library. At this point, the members of the board of the McHenry County Performing Arts association consist of director and actress. Barbara D. Miller. actresses Yvonne Alton and Ann Marie Cina, all well known throughout the county for their dedicated work in various theaters, Howard Alton and George Cina. Those who want to know more about this ex­ citing organization should come to one of the puppet shows or write the MCPAA, P.O. Box 297, McHenry.

There's An Answer (by Norman Vincent Peale and Ruth Stafford Peale) Punished by Sickness? Q. I had a tubal litigation operation three years ago after my last child was born. Since then I have never had one day I have actually felt well. I know that God is probably punishing me for having the operation. I have two children to take care of, plus a husband, and I am always sick. I am constantly taking pills. If I only had one relative who. cared enough to help me with the children when I'm sick. Please' give me an answer. Just some kind words may help. A. You are quite wrong. God does not punish people for having operations. If you are always "sick" as you say, it could very well be that you have sick thoughts. You seem to have attitudes that breed such problems. Don't waste time criticizing your so-called uncaring relatives. Get to work on yourself. A mental housecleaning and a new outlook can produce health and vitality. You have the power to take charge of your life. And God will help you do so. We have a booklet, Try Faith and Watch What Happens, which has helped others with questions such as yours, and a copy of it is on its way to you. Anyone wishing a free copy of the booklet may write to us in care of Box 500, Pawling, NY 12564. House Is a Mess Q. One of our sons has a very orderly home and a very neat and organized wife. The other son's home always looks as though a tornado hit it. We love him as much as the other. My question is, do we say something to change the state of things and perhaps risk their disfavor, or do we accept the way they live when we are in their home? I hope there is an answer. A. No, you have no right to say anything about the way your son and his wife keep their house. This is a free country, and if they want to live in a disorganized home that is their choice to make. But you don't have to go there any more than you want to. Let them know you love them and believe in them, and don't criticize them. Perhaps in time, hopefully, they will get themselves organized. Forgets to Come Home Q. I know that my husband loves me. He has been wonderful to me and the children. The problem is his drinking. He will drink too much and forget to come home till morning. He is always sorry, and weeks go by before he does it again. He says he just rides around with some friends (single men) until morning, that he just starts drinking and then doesn't think straight. This doesn't make sense to me. He's a much better person than I am or anyone else I know-except for these drunks. How can I help him? Will he ever change? I don't want to leave him, but how can I know if God is leading me to stay or leave? A. Could be your husband suffers from a form of alcoholism- sober for days, then goes on a drunk. In your community there must bean Alcoholics Anonymous group who could help him reach sobriety. If he truly desires help he can be cured. It will require your continuing loyalty, patience, love and understanding. There's a group called A1 Anon for family members who want guidance in dealing wisely with the situation. Many a husband or wife has faced this problem and many have seoi it work out successfully. 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.
