In a world where temptation abounds, it is sometimes hard and difficult to stay away from sin. Those who persevere know that the straight road is always the best road. Sometimes, perhaps, it should be spelled strait, which means hard, difficult, because it can be a lonely road, a road away from the crowd. Yet the true Christian takes heart. He ignores the fact the straight road may be difficult and hard,- even narrow. He is well aware that it leads ever upward and that it ends only at the City of Peace. The straight road is seldom without pitfalls. Yet, because vision is clear, they are more e a s i l y d i s c e r n e d and more readily prepared for. On a b r i g h t day one can s e e , almost, forever.

"What finer way can a person or group beautify their home, office or school than by purchasing a piece of art at the Country Art Fair, thereby helping the auxiliary to buy the equipment necessary to the good health of our community," stated Mrs. Wernquist. CONSTITUIONAL REVISION As a result of an idea developed by Crystal Lake City Councilman Orrin Peterson and McHenry County Treasurer Cal Skinner, Jr., young men throughout Illinois may start a campaign to pass this fall's state constitutional convention call this weekend in Chicago. That is when the Crystal Lake Jaycees will present a resolution to the annual convention of the Illinois Jaycees calling for all Illinois Jaycee chapters to participate actively in an attempt to bring constitutional revision to Illinois. Clean Streams Hears Health Administrator (Continued from page 1) county faces a future of improved lakes and streams. Control of sewage treatment plants, the prevention of waste discharges from boat toilets and elimination of pollution from septic systems held a special interest for the audience. RESOLVE PROBLEM Mr. Duel said his personal feelings are that the direction should be not to close beaches or condemn lakes or rivers, but instead, when a problern is found, work toward the resolution of the problem so that the people can get the best use from the existing water resources. He mentioned that his department is also interested in the protection of underground water supplies and the health department will sample wells. The health department will investigate arty community health problem reported to them. McHenry Township Assistant Supervisor Edward J. Buss advised the Clean Streams committee that they should not expect too much from the newly formed health department as the county board of supervisors was not ready to spend a large amount of money for these services at this time.

The sun shone brightly and warm April weather had brought forth an abundance of spring flowers, but no May baskets greeted xis at the door. Every now and then we hear someone wonder, aloud, what youngsters did for amusement in the long distant past. Filling May baskets was one of the favorite diversions, but some how we can't get a clear picture of this providing more than a mild diversion for little ones today. K.A.F.
