Producers Livestock association, said cattle prices are at a high level and he does anticipate a strong market in the near future. "There is a tremendous demand for _beef. Are cattle going tomake\vou a profit? If you dorrt have them, you won't know, but do not extend yourself too far so you will be hurt financially should you be wrong." he advised. "A common mistake cattle feeders are making is to put added weight and finish on their cattle. By the time you do that you'll pay more for your replacements and the price you receive for your heavy cattle is less than what you would have received for the lighter cattle." Chuck Bloomberg, State Department of Agriculture representative, said "When farmers make money, rural Illinois makes money. We find more competition for land from more people and more animals. Animals are competing with people for beans, corn and other foods. He said to feed one million people requires 450,000 hogs, 172,000 cattle, 1.3 million turkeys and chickens, and 25,000 dairy cows. STUDY SCHOOL REQUIREMENTS FOR RECOGNITION (Continued from page 1) extended to the school, after which all state aid will be lost. Administrators noted that the system has already been im­ plemented in the local school. At this informative meeting, the music, art and physical education programs were described as carried out in District 15 schools. Eloise Leighty, Carl Kohrt and Pat Berkland represented the music departments; Cheryl Toalson and Twila Weichle, art; and Gary Reynolds, Marvel Sheller, Marcia Balstrode and Jim Schoeff, physical education. At the conclusion of the brief talks, Dr. Eugene Paulausky, director of instructional ser­ vices, commented. He said many people think of these school offerings as "extras". However, Dr. Paulausky said if an analysis should be made of the time spent in such activities as TV watching, it could readily be seen that knowledge of music, art and physical education proves more valuable than most people believe. CITY/ TOWNSHIP VOTING TAKE SPOTLIGHT IN '73 (Continued from page 1) printed until after Feb. 17. March 19 is the first day for an absent voter not in the United States service to file ap­ plication for an absent ballot. The township election is scheduled for Tuesday, April 3, w hen a clerk, assessor and four auditors will be named. The Republicans have scheduled a caucus for Feb. 6 to select candidates. According to a reliable source, the Democrats have chosen notfto hold a caucus, following a practice of recent years. Albert A. Adams is serving his first term as clerk and Sebre Whiting isjcpmpleting his first term in the assessor's post. At present, there are three auditors, James Wegener, Harry Freund and James Puhl. In accordance with the new- state constitution, four will be elected this year, f Another constitutional change takes away from the clerk voting privileges on the board. DEVELOPMENT HEARING FOR ,, AREA POSTPONED (Continued from page 1) Also, ii changes were going to be made, it would be useless to continue with the proceedings on the old plan. First witness for the petitioners Wednesday was Hjalmar Sundin, a sanitary and civil engineer. He answered questions regarding basic reports made by his company, Baxter & Woodman, for the city of McHenry in regard to sewerage plant development. A 1966 report covered areas west of the Fox river and such surrounding territories as Lakeland Park, McCullom Lake, Whispering Oaks and the area north of the city. In 1970, the company was --coi\t-u ov the city to conduct a feasibility in­ vestigation into the area directly east of the city along the Fox river and the perimeter of the city east and west of Route 31. These areas were divided into four sections: 1 - area west of Route 31, north of the city; 2 - area east of Route 31, north of the city, bounded by the Fox river; 3 - area north of Route 120, west of Chapel Hill road, east of the river; 4 - area south of Route 120, east to the projection of Chapel Hill road, south to the township line and to the river on the west. The proposed Port Royal development of 238 acres is included in the fourth section of the 1970 study which covers approximately 425 acres. The engineering firm estimated population in this section at 6,800. They figured sixteen persons or four houses per acre. Estimated population for all four sections was 21,000. Sundin said his investigation recommended that an ad­ ditional sewerage treatment site be located on the east side of the river to serve that area. They suggested that a pumping station be located north of the lagoon, across from the Snug Harbor Inn. This location was chosen because the site is downstream in the area where services are needed. Also in 1970, people who controlled the property at that time did not object to building a plant in that location. Under cross examination by Franz, Sundin reported that McHenry's present sewer system is handling 5,000 population equivalent. When the Lakeland Park project is completed, another 2,000 to PAGE 19-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 1973 McHenry Moose (No. 691) Live Entertainment! Every Friday Night Pizza Available 2816 W. Rte. 120 McHenry 2,500 persons^ will be added, bringing the total to 7,500. When the present expansion project at the city sewer is complete, it will be able to handle 17,500. When asked about noise from a pumping station, Sundin explained that the pumps would be installed below ground in a concrete structure. Electrical controls would be housed above ground. In case of a power outage, it is required that another source of power be available such as a generator. At such times there may be some noise but if properly operated, no noise or odors should emit from the pumping station. Cost of such a station ran approximated $125,000 in 1970. In the proposed development plans, a sewerage treatment plant is located in another portion of the property. A forced main would have to be installed to complete the project. Cost of this forced main was approximated $36,000 in 1970. Sundin remarked that in the future, should the property be annexed to the city of McHenry. a forced main could be installed under the river to the present plant on the east side. Objectors asked how they could make sure this plant would be operated properly? Who would they contact in case of violations'7 What are the penalties for improper operation? Sundin told them to contact the Environmental Protection agency. He also informed them that EPA checks these plants regularly and they are under constant inspection. The McHenry plant is checked once a week. Sundin noted that penalties for any violation can range as high as $1,000 a day. At a previous meeting, a petition signed by 300 persons was presented to the Zoning Board of Appeals. The main objections presented at that meeting were as follows: Closing of River road; the placement of a sewerage plant in the proposed development; lowering of property values on their homes: increase in taxes due to additional children being brought into the area; pollution of the river by effluent from a sewerage plant; drainage problems would increase in an area that already suffers from flooding conditions and con­ struction of pre-fab buildings in the development. MUSIN" N' MEANDERIN" (Continued from page 1) first gaining a nod of approval from lhe state. This came since the first of the year based on traffic count figures at the three locations. Many residing in other areas probably would like to see the same kind of progress. Patience and prodding seem to be the key words, both on the part of individual citizens and the smaller governments which usually are dependent on*other YIP's for action Announcement Tuesday night of the signing of a peace pact in the Vietnam conflict brought the same happy, reaction to McHenry residents as those throughout the world. However, it was not as jubilant as some of us remember at the close of World War II. There are many reasons, of course. One is the difference in timing. The end of the second world conflict came suddenly and drastically through use of the atomic bomb The Vietnam peace was long awaited. Also, to our knowledge there are no prisoners of war from the immediate McHenry community whose return would be eagerly awaited All of these factors do not make peace any less welcome, only celebrated with less open rejoicing. K.A.F. 250 AT DRUG ABUSE FILM SHOWING; ASK VOLUNTEER AID (Continued from pagesi 1) willingness to serve volunteers in initiating REPORT C.&N.W. WILL CUT OFF LOCAL SERVICE (Continued frommpage 1) revealed that this order would mean the closing of the McHenry railway station. Other stations in the area included in the intended abolishment notice are Cary ifand Woodstock, 111., and Genoa City and Lake Geneva in Wisconsin. There would be no ticket sales at the McHenry station after the proposed date of Jan. 29. No arrangements have been made to Meumaier's knowledge concerning the handling of freight with local industries. However, it is believed that this would be done by telephone with the Harvard or Crystal Lake stations Since the notice was received as the Plaindealer was going to press, no verification of the report could be made with the agent serving the McHenry station as a community program.

By BOB JUSTEN The claws of worry clutch people everywhere. Some people even worry about worrying too much. Ulcers result from varied causes but worry has festered as many, if not more, than any other cause. Worry has shoved more and more people to seek relief from psychiatrists. Still more people find themselves with a tight feeling in the pit of the stomach and hit the bottle to 'relax'. Goodness knows how many people take sleeping pills, trying to bring restful sleep to a restless body caused by worry. All this is a tragedy in modern society. And most of it is so needless. Any psychologist will tell you 80% of the things worried about, never happen. It is said a good way to reduce worry is to write down the worst thing that could happen - if the thing or things you worry about actually did happen. It is claimed that facing the fact in this way can help you reduce worry. Maybe so. But some peo­ ple simply can not face facts. There is a way though for everyone to overcome worry. Worrying is negative thinking. Replace such thoughts with positive thinking. The best positive think­ ing the world has ever heard of Is the 23rd Psalm-"I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me." Believe it. Keep on believing it. Millions of people have proved it. . .GEORGE R. JUSTEN & SON FUNERAL HOME, 3519 W. Elm St., McHenry, 111.
