By BOB Jt'STEN Peq?le today have lots of things on their minds. Consequently, people forget things quickly. . . i . This is the one and only reason why we hear and hear and hear the same, same, same words in so many T.V. commercials. A good example of how fast peo­ ple forget can be shown in this way-- Did you read yesterday's paper? With only one day gone by, think back and see if you can quote the front page headline! If you can, you are an exception. Most people can't. Better yet, as you read this thought which appears on an inside page of this paper, can you accurately quote the headline you read on page one of this paper you are NOW reading? Don't feel badly if you can't. It just goes to show how most people can and do forget so quickly. There is one thing in life most people rarely forget- kindness! Only ungrateful people forget acts of kind­ ness but fortunately, most people are grateful. An excellent example of how kindness is remembered is shown in the parable of the Good Samaritan. Nearly everyone knows and remembers the story church­ goer or not. Yet, in scripture, the story of the Good Samaritan is told only ONCE! Just a few short lines! Yes, - kindness is remembered and the best way to be remembered is to be kind... GEORGE R. JUSTEN & SON FUNERAL HOME, 3519 W. Elm St., McHenry 111. Phone: 385-2400.

SERVICE NEWS Airman Walter J. Price, son of Mr. and Mrs. Walter J. Price of 3424 Elm, McHenry, has been assigned to Chanute AFB, 111., after completing Air Force basic training. During his six weeks at the Air Training Command's Lackland AFB, Tex., he studied the Air Force mission, organization and customs and received special instruction in human relations. The airman has been assigned to the Technical Training center at Chanute for specialized training in aircraft maintenance. Airman Price is a 1972 graduate of McHenry West high school. Mike Finamore was told he had leukemia. Nine years ago. When Mike Finamore was thirteen years old, he was told he had leukemia. At that time, this meant he had five, maybe six months, to live. But just about then, leukemia research produced some dramatic results: A special combination of drugs that would kill the leukemia cells in the blood and permit the person to live longer than ever before. So Mike was treated. And it worked. He didn't die. Instead, he became one of the fortu­ nate few to have leukemia and live. And today his weekly treatments enable him to lead a normal life. In fact, right now he's putting the roof on a house he built himself. And when it's finished there will be a double celebration. The new house. And Mike's 22nd birth­ day. Most people expect presents. Mike's happy just to have a birthday. We arrive at the truth, not by the reason only, but also by the heart. -Blaise Pascal.
