Pa«r 14- PLAINDEALER-HERALD, FRIDAY, JUNE 7.1*85 MOLLY MILLIGAN Your Home Decorator Paliy Milligan Syndicate The Lake Region YMCA is now recruiting participants in its Y Indian Guides and Y Indian Princesses program. The program annually involves nearly GGC fathers sad their young sons and daughters in McHenry County. The . Y's parent-child programs were created nearly 50 years ago in St. Louis, Mo. as a way for busy fathers to spend some special hours each month with their youngsters during their formative years. The program is opened to youngsters entering grades one through three and their dads. The YMCA organizes groups from six to 10 parent-child pairs who meet in their own homes on a rotation basis, twice a month during the school year. Each group puts together their own program based on resources provided by the YMCA. Stories, songs, crafts, Indian Lore and games are among the usual activities. Representatives of the various groups meet mon­ thly to plan special events for all of the groups to participate in, such as campouts, bike hikes, winter fun days, a father-child bowling tournament, roller skating and occasional family events. For further information on Indian Guide and Princesses call the YMCA at (815) 459-4455.

The glass panels slide back to let the fresh air air in, and shut snugly to protect against winter winds. I need some advice to help make my sunroom as inviting as an old-fashioned English garden. Karen, Bella Villa, MO Dear Karen: Every blooming fabric manfacturer is featuring garden prints this year. And they are not just charming, they are cozy as well. Whether you have a garden porch, screened-in patio, solarium or just a sunny corner in your kitchen, you can bring the garden indoors with these tips: • Suggest a lazy afternoon with a hanging hammock. Toss pastel-colored pillows on top and surround your hammock with potted trees and hanging plants. • Use natural fabrics like linen, cotton chintz, terry cloth and canvas. They are cool, comfortable and washable. • Hand-made ceramics, terra cotta pots, Italian tiles and seashells add smooth, clean accents. •# • Keep windows as bare as possible. If you need a covering for protection against summer glare or winter winds, keep window dressing simple. Bamboo roll-up shades, mini-blinds, and vertical louvers require little upkeep, are contemporary and provide good light control. If you prefer fabric, consider laminated window shades or canvas roman shades. • If you don't have a desirable view, create one by wallpapering one wall with a ready-made mural. Wallpaper murals are inexpensive and available in many scenes and seasons. • Latticework always conjurs up the feeling of the old-time gazebo. Recapture the mood with a trellis-covered wall or ceiling. Lattice comes in wood, plastic and wallpaper. • Replace your double-hung window with a greenhouse window to visually expand a room's size, to increase sunlight and to encourage horticultural activities. • Color will remind one of a romantic garden faster than anything, so look to nature for your palette: Sky blue, leaf green, mushroom brown, daffodil yellow, sand and white. • A ceiling fan gives sultry afternoons a boost of breeze. • Patio furniture should be comfortable and easy to care for. Lacy wrought iron, wicker with deep cabbagc rose print cushions, rainbow canvas directors chairs and glass-top tables all create a light, airy atmosphere. If you have a question for Your Home Decorator, send it along with u self-addressed, stamped envelope to Molly Milligan, P.O. Box 14, Dundee, IL 60118. Allow,tour weeks for a reply. YMCA now recruiting for Indian guides, princesses On Sunday, June 16, at 2 p.m., members of the Historic Sites Committee of the McHenry County Historical Society will be awarding historic plaque 22 to the L.B. Peatt home at 3920 Greenwood Road. The 123-year-old home, owned by Mr. and Mrs. Omer Haim- baugh for the past 30 years, onde served as the farm house home of Lewis Brown and Margaret Whiston Peatt. The hill where the home is locsfted near the village of Greenwood was once know as Peatt's Hill. Like many other settlers of the area, the Peatt's were both from New York State/ Lewis settled first on March 4,1844 and in the fall of 1848 Margaret Whiston followed. She travelled by stage, packet and steamboat to Racine, Wise., then by wagon to Hebron prairie where she made her home with her brother, John Whiston. In 1852, after Lewis had returned from the gold fields of California, the two were married. The plaquing of the 1862 farm home draws attention to the efforts of homeowners like the Haimbaughs in maintaining the architectural history Of McHenry County. Members of the McHenry County Historical Society are invited to attend the short plaquing ceremony aid view the home.
