As a heat source you can choose, charcoal, electricity or gas The most portable and compact of charcoal grills are braziers and hibachis These grills will go anywhere, to the beach or your apartment balcony They use the direct method of heating which means the food is quick-cooked by the heat source located directly underneath There are usually dampers located at the bottom which gives you some control over air cir­ culation and heat Covered grills use ihe direct and indirect method of heating The indirect method of heating allows you to cook a variety of foods by placing the food to the side of, or surrounded by. the source of heat, rather than directly over it. By placing the cover on the grill, radiant heat is reflected off the cover, eliminating the need to turn the food or for a rotisserie. Air vents permit good heat control and a variety of cooking techniques Another advantage of the covered grill is that the charcoal may be extinguished after cooking is finished by closing the vents and saved and restarted the next time the grill is used. Gas grills are used to produce a barbecued flavor and appearance Ceramic briquettes or volcanic rocks are used as the heat source. Preheating is generally necessary but once the briquettes reach the desired temperature, a gas grill will maintain that temperature as long as it is on that set­ ting The briquettes can be reused. Electric grills have coils which heat ceramic briquettes or heat directly from the coil using no briquettes Preheating is necessary when the unit uses briquettes The electric unit provides the convenience of easily controlled heat Whatever method you choose, everything tastes great cooked outdoors Golden Gleams What is the use of health, or of life, if not to do some work therewith? -Thomas Carlyle. My destiny is solitude, and my life is work. -Richard Wagner. The sum of wisdom is, that the time is never lost that is devoted to work. -R.W. Emerson. NOW AT CAREY APPLIANCE 10th ANNIVERSARY (a?

It's surprising how few breaks really deserving people get. * * * * I n d e p e n d e n c e i s something that the mar­ ried man brags about. f Many people may be ^surprised to learn that the average annual spending on apparel in this country was ^$473 per person in 1980, about ^$23 more than in 1979. v "That's no small in­ vestment for most people." notes Kathi Heberer, McHenry County Extension adviser. "And as prices continue to increase, many consumers are looking for ways to stretch their clothing dollar further." Doing so may,be easier in some categories than in others. Ms Heberer says Prices on men's shirts, in­ fants' and toddlers' apparel, boys' and girls' shoes, sewing materials and notions, and jewelry in- ' creased relatively more than did costs of some other items, according to the Consumer Price Index However, prices on women's dresses and girls' coats, jackets, dresses, suits were slightlf" more than one percent lower in 1980 than in 1979 ^ "In addition to careful shopping, one way to Wretch your clothing dollar farther is to analyze your current wardrobe and work with what you already have," advises Marjorie Sohn, University of Illinois Ex­ tension clothing and textiles specialist. She recommends a thorough closet and dresser cleaning session to sort out items you haven't worn in a long time and to find out exactly what you have on hand "The things you pull out because you haven't worn them recently usually can be classified into five categories." Ms. Sohn says, including those items that no longer fit properly, those with an outdated silhouette or design, those made of a fabric or in a color no longer fashionable or that you no longer like, those which you've worn for a long time and have grown tired of and those items that need to be mended. She recommends you put any items you're no longer wearing into piles according to which of the above categories they fall into and then take a second look at the items that remain. "Rearrange each item in your closet and drawers to see different effects you might achieve by mixing texture and colors. Try to think of all the combinations that will work," she says. "Next, look at each of the piles of garments you discarded earlier and pick out those items that can work with and enhance garments you left in the closet or your dresser," she advises Before you give up on the discarded items and relegate them to your next garage sale. Ms Sohn recommends you give one last thought to any and all possible uses you might have for them. For example, remember that: -Shirt-type blouses can be worn both over and under sweaters. -Two-piece garments can be worn as separates -Classic jackets and cardigans can be worn over dresses to give both pieces a totally new look --If the sleeves of a sweater are too short, you can wear the sweater over a blouse, push up the sleeves PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER • WEDNESDAY, MAY 27.1M1 BIBLE VERSE "The grass withereth. the flower fadeth; but the word of our God shall stand forever. 1.
