as to what he or she wants and where he or she wants to go to get it. For some it may mean a romantic candle-lit meal, while others just want good wholesome
food at low prices, and there are also those who only want ice cream. It seems the ice cream crowd is the one that was in primary control during the recent heat wave. They seemed to be everywhere eating the sweet, cool, drippy substance, or perhaps the heat served to transform a few “meat-n-potato lovers” into ‘‘ice cream lickers." But eating ice cream may not be all that bad of an idea, as the wholesome treat has no caffeine, is made predominantly from natural food substances and can even be low calorie. Many weight watchers purchase special weight watchers ice cream, ice milk or frozen yogurt. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires that most ice cream contain at least 20 percent milk solids by weight. However, it’s one of the few manufactured foods where a listing of the ingredients is not required on the package label. It’s guessed that ice cream was introduced to Europe in 1295, when Marco Polo returned to Italy from the far East with a recipe for a frozen dessert that included milk. But it was not until 1851 that ice cream became a full-fledged industry in the United States. This happened when milk dealer Jacob Fussell found himself over supplied with cream and began producing ice cream in quantity. Today over 800 million gallons of ice cream are sold in the United States annually, and the total reaches over one billion gallons when ice milk, sherbert, and water ices are included. Nutritionist state that one-third pint of vanilla ice cream is about equal to one-half cup pf whole milk in calcium, protein and riboflavin, as well as being equal to about one cup of milk in "vitamin A and calories. Ice cream is served in many parts of the world, but Americans eat more of it than do the people of any other country. The average American eats about 23 quarts of ice cream each year. If you're a connoisseur of great foods other than ice cream, however, the lakes area can also meet your need for whatever you’re hungry for. There are a number of area restaurants specializing in fish, steak, chicken, barbecue ribs, pizza, Chinese food, and much more. Area persons interested in fine dining usually do it after the so called 6 o’clock supper hour, an hit the scene around 7 p.m Part-time hostess at Vincent’s Beth Myers speculated, “There seems to be more people in town after 7 p.m. because people are
coming in from the lake and they usually come in groups of six, eight or 10.” She went on to say, “Probably about 50 percent pf our business in the summer, takes place from 7 p.m. till 9-10 p.m. Though we have a large group of predominantly men during the day, in the evening we see a lot of families.”

Family entertainment at EHP
Enchanted Hills Playhouse has been a part of the SyracuseWawasee area for over 21 years and continues to provide some of the finest stage productions in Northern Indiana for the entertainment of its audiences. The playhouse is easy to find in its rustic setting in Enchanted Hills on the east side of Wawasee Lake. Jill Stover purchased the playhouse nearly nine years ago and has played an important role in its continued success. In those nine years she has made several important changes. In 1980 she began the very popular Children's Theater which has performances at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. on six Saturdays during the summer. Remaining productions of Children's Theater this year are “Puss in Boots” on Aug. 1,. “Fabulous Fable Factory” on Aug. 15 and a workshop on Aug. 22 Children can attend the workshop to get the feel of the theater experience. Instructor Daniel LeMonnier will show them how to expand their imaginations and some points on acting, makeup and being a mime The Children's Theater group again this year toured area schools so that children who may never have seen a play could have the opportunity to experience a live play first-hand. Three more plays will be performed on the Main Stage this summer. Curtain time is 8 p.m. each day except Sunday, when the plays start at 7 p.m. for the convenience of senior citizens and people going to work on Monday morning. “Godspell” will open on Wednesday, Aug. 29. It will run through Sunday, Aug. 2 and then from Aug. 5 through 9. “Gypsy” will run from Aug. 12 through 16 and from Aug. 19 through 23. “Brighton Beach Memoirs” will round out the season from Aug. 26 through 30. The artistic director this year is Dr. Jeffrey Koep, chairman of the Community Arts Department at Indiana University at South Bend. The musical director is Julie Kutosh.

/ < BQ |K|l| ■ wLI--PRODUCTION OF "GODSPELL” — Enchanted Hills Playhouse, with the support of the Indiana Arts Commission and the National Endowment For the Arts, will present its fifth production — "Godspell.” It will run July 29 through August 9. “Godspell,” a musical based on the teachings of Saint Mathew, features Paul Gregory Nelson (pictured) and Walter Winston O’Neil as the Jesus and Judas/John the Baptist characters. Another member of the ensemble will be Debbie Crabtree (shown with Nelson). The play was written by John-Michael Tebelak in 1970 — his master’s project while he was a masters of fine arts candidate at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburg. He set out to write a work that would “revitalize people’s interest in religion and bring more celebration into religion.” Some of the production's popular musical numbers include "Day By Day,” “All For the Best,” “Turn Back, O Man” and “On the Willows."
China painters display work at Warsaw library
By DEE JAYNES Staff Writer On April 1, 1980, Ruth E. Williams of Winona Lake, a porcelain artist who taught classes in china painting, brought together 19 other interested artists to form the Warsaw China Painters Club. The first meeting was held at the REMC building in Warsaw. The new club was a part of the federated organization known as the World Organization of China Painters and was the 14th club organized within the Indiana World Organization of China Painters. The club was officially organized May 6,1980. An official installation of officers occurred on June 3, 1980. Officers installed by IWOCP president Marilyn Langbehn of Hobart were: Ruth Williams, Winona Lake, president; Lynn Ann Diamente, Columbia City, vice president; Louise Anderson, North Webster, treasurer; Edna Miller, Goshen, recording secretary; Eloise Bixler, Leesburg, corresponding secretary; Kay Jetmore, Syracuse, historian; and Mabel Hamilton, Winona Lake, parliamentarian. Presidents of the club have included: Ruth E. Williams, 1980; Lynn Diamente, 1981; Brenda Dolbee, 1982; Mabel Hamilton, 1983-84; and Linda Dilling, 1985-87. In 1982, the club's 28 members voted to organize a second club for members currently driving to the Warsaw area from Columbia City and Ft. Wayne. The second club was named the Pallette Talk China Painters Guild and held meetings in Ft. Wayne. The new club hosted the 1986 state show in Ft. Wayne.

From its organization in 1980 until 1983, the Warsaw China Painters met once a month on Tuesday evening, from 7 to 10 p.m. at the REMC building, located on S. Buffalo St., in Warsaw. When the Warsaw Publiq Library began offering a community room to non-profit groups at no charge, the club changed its meeting place to the library and its meeting day to Saturday to accommodate working members and to allow a full day for seminars by guests artists. The group currently meets at the library one Saturday a month, usually from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. The Warsaw China Painters do not hold monthly meetings December through February because of inclement weather during those months.
