"Residents of all of McHenry county are invited to sign a petition in protest of a proposed zoning action. The protest begins: 'We the people undersigned do not want another gas station in McHenry.' "It is proposed that a major oil company build and maintain a business, namely another gas station, at the location now occupied by Locker's Florist, being the corner of Elm St. (Highway 120) and the new street running up hill to Waukegan street. "Why protest this action? Allow me to suggest a few pertinent facts. "1 - McHenry is so overpopulation with gas stations that at least five such businesses go broke and close up on an average of every six months. Another five or so just break even, with the owner working 70 and 80 hours a week. These men who lost their savings and sometimes their possessions are our neighbors. They service us, support us through taxes, contributions and donations, both financially and physically. And yet we let them down by allowing competition which has become so over-taxed, ruthless and completely unneeded that they lost both health and home. They support us, let us show them some support. They are our neighbors, let's appx-eciate them not depreciate them. "Business thrives on competition, fairly regulated, it dies when regulations die. "2 - The city of McHenry has long known the need for added space for such things as attractive business, schools, parking, etc. Why allow this choice space to be rendered useless by a business completely useless and unneee'ed. "The petitions are out. Ask your gas station attendant. Read it. Then, instead of a shrug of shoulders and a shake of your head, act. Here's your chance to be heard. It's your city, they are your neighbors. Ask and sign. "Donald E. Kinsala "3915 W. Main "McHenry, 111." PICNIC FOODS The great American institution of the summer picnic is enjoyed by almost everyone -- even by the flies and ants. But a picnic sometimes can end In sorrow, even tragedy, it a few simple precautions to stave off food poisoning are ignored. In planning a picnic, remember these simple rules: 1. Instead of making the entire lunch at home -- and keeping it in the baking hot trunk of the car until your family builds up an appetite-- take along th^ sandwich ingredients in their original wrappers and containers and make up your picnic ineal on the spot, just before mealtime. 2. If your favorite sandwich is ham, you are one of many millions. But take the ham m a sealed can, and open just before dinner time. Ham spoils quickly at warm temperatures. Sirtce potato salad also spoils easily, why not take the boiled potatoes, hardboiled eggs and mayonnaise (in its sealed jar) and mix the salad at the last minute"' 3. The picnic ice box is a great food saver, if properly used. But it should be a good, well-insulated box, with a tight lid, and plenty of ice in it. Items stored in the ice box should be well chilled in the refrigerator in advance. 4. Stick to canned stuffs and sealed jars and bottles that can be opened just before using. Be careful about pies (cream-filled bakery goods spoil fast on hot days). Take fresh fruits for dessert.

HOURS Friday Evenings: 7 to 9 p.m. Daily, Including Saturday: 2 to 5 p.m. 1241 N. (Ireen Street "THE SHOES OF THE FISHERMAN," by Morris L. West. A What happens to a twentiethcentury man when he is crowned with the triple Tiara and named Vicar of Christ, viceregent of the Almighty on this troubled planet? This startling question is the point of departure for The Shoes Of The Fisherman." "The Papacy is the most paradoxical office in the world; the most absolute and yet the most limited, the richest in revenues but the poorest in personal return. It was founded by a Nazarene carpenter who owned no place to rest his head, yet it is surrounded by more pomp and panoply than is seemly in this hungry world. It owns no frontiers, yet is subject always to national intrigue and partisan pressure. The man who accepts it claims Divine guarantee against error, yet is less assured of salvation than the meanest of his subjects. The keys of the kingdom dangle at his belt, yet he can find himself locked out forever when a funeral Mass was sung at 10 o'clock at Christ the King Catholic church, Wonder Lake. from the Peace of Election and the Communion of Saints. If he says he is not tempted by autocracy and ambition, he is a liar. If he does not walk sometimes in terror, and pray often in darkness than he is a fool. " I k n o w -- a t l e a s t I am beginning to know, I was elected this morning and tonight I am alone on the Mountain of Desolation. He whose Vicar I am hides His face from me. Those whose shepherd I must be do not know me. The world is spread beneath me like a campaign map--and I see balefires on every frontier. There are blind eyes upturned, and a babel of voices invoking an Unknown..." From this eloquent summary, Morris West has developed one of the most moving and challenging novels of recent times. "THE EDGE OF TERROR," by Jeremy York. "Please don't hurt Angela," Rachel Rowan called clearly, carefully. "I'll give you anything you want,'"but don't hurt my daughter." She wanted to scream. All the ugly pictures she had ever seen, all the dreadful stories she had ever read crowded her mind as she walked toward the door of the long-empty house. "Please," she called again at tho threshold. "I'll give you everything I've got..." The man's voice was unexpectedly close. "You say that very easily, but what have you got to give?" For recently widowed Rachel Rowan, the nightmare had begun in the sunny hours of that morninf. She hnri rlnvon down f r< >ni i ; 'in !< >!', wit h her sn t; < I i daughter to look over her husband's only legacy--the dilapidated, long-deserted country house where he had been born. Within minutes after her arrival she had found the bones in the attic--a skeleton leaning forward to show the splintered hole in its skull. Now she was walking back into that house because she had to- because i Angela had vanished from the ruined garden. Inside waited the man she had glimpsed in ^ the dense shrubbery that afternoon, a man with dark hair and a lean, strangely attractive face who somehow knew her name. A man who held her daughter hostage for a secret she did not know--the hiding place of an Illicit, blood-tainted fortune her husband had not revealed, even to her, before he died... A volatile mixture of suspense and savage violence, "The Edge of Terror" is intriguing mystery, packed with the explosive power of the double, double cross. PUBLIC AID ADVICE Harold O. Swank, director of the Illinois Department of Public Aid, has issued instructions for county department staffs to place additional emphasis on their efforts to encourage children in public assistance families to return to school in September.
