Store Furs Carefully Fur or fur-trimmed garments in your wardrobe represent a substantial investment-- one that deserves protection so it can keep paying dividends in good looks and long wear. Take your fur to a furrier for storage and refur­ bishing, -• if necessary, advises Kathi Heberer, specialized clothing adviser with the University of Illinois Cooperative Ex­ tension Service. The cost you pay for temperature- and humidity* controlled storage will be paid back in years of additional wear that might be lost through improper storage at home. It's important that furs be stored under exactly the right degree of humidity, Ms. Heberer explains. High humidity causes damage such as mold or mildew. Low humidity is equally damaging because dry air draws moisture and natural oils from pets and fur hairs. Never store a fur in a plastic bag - in-season or off-season. Furs stored this way tend to dry out more rapidly. The oil content of a skin determines both the life of a fur and its' appearance. Oils remain in the skin for many years unless abused. Removing oil causes the hide to become brittle and the fur dull and lifeless. The term "furrier's method" is used to describe a way of cleaning furs, NJs. Heberer adds. An absorbent compound is impregnated with a liquid that will remove soil. This method will not damage the fur pelts or the lining. It is safe for dyes, aids in retaining shape and contributes softness to the fur garment: The "glazing process" follows cleaning; Liquid compounds containing special ingredients polish the fur and impart sheen. The liquid is either sprayed or brushed onto the garment. After it is jdry, the fur is ironed with a special iron used by professional fur cleaners. Some furs require neither glazing or ironing; the ap­ pearance of others is enhanced by these processes. Do not spray furs at home, with insecticide, perfoume or other chemicals as these may damage or stain the fur. Have repairs made before storage, Ms. Heberer ad­ vises. With good care, furs can be durable. When selecting a fur, remember that short-haired furs generally last longer than long-haired ones. And always look for indicators of a quality fur such as silky luster, even color, soft pliable leather back and good density. McHenry's Ice Age Heritage PAGE 3 • PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY. MAY 28.1980 • M V Walter and Bernadette Messel, Jr., of Beloit, Wis. and previously of Sunnyside and Pistakee Highlands, announce the birth of their first daughter, May 21. Nicolette was born in St. Clair hospital, Monroe, Wis. and weighed 9 lbs. She was welcomed home by three brothers, Bud, Gregory and Matthew. ., A Mr. and Mr. Richard Schneider of Sunnyside are the maternal grandparents. Paternal grandparents are Walter and Helen Messel of Round Lake, formerly of Pistakee Highlands. Jeremiah John is the name chosen by John E. and Jacqueline L. Race, 1003 Hayden drive, McHenry, for their fourth child. The baby boy was born May 20, in McHenry hospital and weighed 7 lbs., 12 oz. Eagerly awaiting him at home were Lisa L., Marjorie L. and Jebediah J. Mr. amjjp Mrs. Frank Palmer ofpSpokane, Wash, are the maternal grand­ parents. Paternal grand­ parents are Mr. and Mrs. Harold Race of Stuart, Fla.

The writer is Marian Olsen), Standing in the gravel pit west of McHenry on Route 120 is like going back to the time just after the last Ice Age, 15,000 years ago, ac­ cording to Crystal Lake high school science instructor, Ronald Marks. Speaking on "The Geology of McHenry County" for members and guests of the Hiawatha Gem and Mineral society at Lake Villa recently, the Johnsburg resident brought a new view of familiar places to the audience. "McHenry county is built almost entirely on sand and gravel," explained Marks, "so, gravel pit operations can be carried on suc­ cessfully where they are the least conspicuous and disturbing to the com­ munity." Describing the glacier of the last Ice Age as'a "con­ veyor belt" carrying masses of sand and gravel to the county, Marks showed slides of local lakes, hills and ridges as the resulting May 22 birth of a boy to Mr. and Mrs. Raymond Buss of McHenry. mellBNKV Rome firUfHtishincis Home tl American D'f» a pinch y< "USE OUR LAYAWAY PLAU" ALL WOOD SALE REG. $449.95 299VU 3 Ft.

McCullom and Crystal lakes are geological "ice block lakes" formed by glacial ice melting and leaving depressions that filled in with spring and ground water. He cited a low ridge running along Barreville road south of McHenry as a geological "esker" and assured the group that some of the best "kames" in the county are located in the conservation area near Ringwood. Both geological forms have their origins in glacial events, Mark said. The esker is a long ridge of gravel and sand formed by streams flowing under the ice. The kame is usually formed in the crevasse of a glacier by deposits of gravel. He added that kames are formed in other ways as well. "The Highway depart­ ment sees these formations as piles of roadfill," said Marks. He continued, "Many of them have been gouged out or leveled to obtain the sand and gravel they hold." From Mark's viewpoint, McHenry's richest farmland is really an outwash plain with 1 to 2 feet of topsoil. And Bull Valley's picturesque beauty is the result of torrents of meltwater for­ ming a deep valley through glacially-created moraines. ,, He 'sees this geological heritage as something to be protected from civilization's inroads. T h e " r o c k h o u n d " audience had no trouble keeping up with the slide presentation of the Northern Illinois university graduate with a Master's degree in Geology- They often iden­ tified specific scenes and formations before he named them. He concluded .his presentation with scenes of the Volo bog, describing i't as "one of the 'neatest' spots in northern Illinois." Ringed with tamarack trees and containing a "fantastic array" of plants and vegetation, all the different stages of a true bog are represented there, Marks added. McHenry county's rich farmland, natural resour­ ces, of sand and gravel an<J natural beauty of the lakes are the legacy left from tH^ , Pleistocene , epoch in geological history, ac­ cording to Marks. He con­ cluded, "The challenge is to inform people so they can make decisions which will save this legacy from outright destruction."
