DECEMBER 4.1*81 At Lutheran Convention Winter Preparedness Week (3 by H. Robbins Helping Paws feels vetfg lucky to have the children m Mrs. Purdy's fifth grade at South school interested in our cause. Their concern in helping our little animal friends was most gratifying to a Helping Paws member, when she recently visited the class. The children had made a beautiful mural and it was used for the tables at a recent bazaar. The class, eager to be of assistance, is planning several projects directed toward Helping Paws, and we feel most fortunate to have their help, interest and concern.

Twenty-three members of the Luther league or Senior High Youth group at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, 404 North Green street, McHenry, attended the Illinois district Luther League convention of the American Lutheran church held at the Sheraton West hotel, Indianapolis, Ind., last weekend. Kathryn Koob, former Iranian hostage, was one of the guest speakers at the event held for over 1,000 high school students. Pastor David Wold from the youth department of the church also spoke to the convention along with Bishop Ehme Osterbur, bishop of the Illinois district. The students were challenged in discussion groups during the three-day convention, through discussions on various life issues that were pertinent to their daily living. Various music groups provided entertainment for the convention. Those attending from Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church include the following: Beverly Fink- beiner, Gene Weincouff, Kim Molidor, Nine Tulich, Bill Molidor, Mark Hartwick, Mark Haack, Stephanie Hankins, Shannon Tiffany, Maureen O'Donnell, Wendy Hanson, Greg Boyd, David Haack, Bea Gemmell, Val Gemmell, Angle Martorano, Gina Martorano, Chris Keevil, Tammy Sproull, and sponsors, Denise Boyd, Chuck Haiman, Chuck Haack and Rosemary Schneider. (Dec. 6 through Dec. 12 has been proclaimed as Winter Preparedness week in McHenry county). Be prepared for isolation at home during winter storms. Keep an adequate supply of heating fuel on hand and use it sparingly as regular supplies may be curtailed by storm con ditions. If necessary, con serve fuel by keeping the house cooler than usual, or by "closing off' some rooms temporarily. Stock an emergency supply of food and water. Your supplies should include food that requires no cooking or refrigeration and emergency cooking facilities in case of power failure. Well-balanced nutritional meals allow the body to produce its own heat ef ficiently, especially quick- energy foods like raisins and other dried fruit. Beware of possible fire hazards due to overheated coal or oil burning stoves, fireplacees, heaters or furnaces. Keep simple tools and equipment needed to fight a fire on hand as fire department help may not be available. Severe winter storms can knock out power lines. Have a flashlight, extra batteries or candles and matches and a battery-powered radio with extra batteries. The radio will allow you to follow the storm's progress and keep you posted on any emergency information broadcasts by local authorities. Downed power lines can affect not only lights but heating equipment as well. If your furnace is controlled by a thermostat and your electricity is cut off by a storm, the furnace probably would not operate, and you would need emergency heat. Some type of emergency heating equipment and fuel would allow you to keep at least one room of the house warm enough to be livable. This could be a camp stove with fuel, or a supply of wood or coal if you have a fireplace. However, be careful using emergency heating equipment-proper ventilation is essential and extra caution must be taken to prevent fire. To learn how to handle alternative heat sources, safely, talk to a local dealer- he'll be listed in the yellow pages of your telephone directory under "heating". If your home should lose heat, keep water pipes from feezing by wrapping them in insulation made for water pipes, or in layers of old newspaper, lapping the ends and tying them around the pipes. Cover the newspapers with plastic to keep out the moisture. If extremely cold and there is a danger of freezing, let the faucets drip a little. Know where the valve for shutting off the water coming into the house or apartment is located. As a last resort, you may have to shut off the main valve and drain all the pipes to keep them from feezing and bursting. If, despite your efforts the pipes do freeze, open faucets wide to allow for expansion of the frozen water. Remove any newspaper that may be around the pipe. Wrap pipes with rags and pour hot water over the rags, with the faucets still open Doggone Right Veterinarians had a gut feel ing for years that the relat ion ship between pet and pet owner was beneficial . A professor of veterinary public health says there is new evidence to prove that people are better off ment ally and physically because of their furry and feathered friends.
