PAGE8-PLAINDKALKK FH1DAY MAKCII 1,1974 Register With Service By Mail In Near Future Illinois Selective Service State Director, Lt. Colonel W Robert Kinscherff, has an­ nounced that young men soon will be able to register with Selective Service by mail when they live in areas where no other method of registration is available^ them. The mail-in registration forms will be available from colorful poster displays to be located in such sites as Post Offices and banks, LTC Kin­ scherff said. Young men still are required to register with the Selective Service System in the sixty-day period beginning thirty days before their eighteenth birthday. When the end of the induction authority and a greatly reduced budget caused the system to Not much of a world--when you consider all its human imperfections. Yet it's the world we are giving our children--the world in which they must grow up and find their destiny. And we keep hoping that theirs will be a finer generation--one able to im­ prove this world. What our children eventually do with the world depends upon our spiri­ tual resources and how we share these truths and ideals with them. By en­ couraging faith and showing them right from wrong, our children can become the finest generation, destined to change the world--for the better. Is there a churph in your life? There should be!

Volunteer registrars, many of whom are located in high schools, were appointed in areas which no longer have local board offices. After tests of the mail-in registration program in several states, Selective, Service of­ ficials decided it merited im­ plementation on a nation-wide basis in those areas where travel distances cause con­ siderable inconvenience for young men who are required to register. •.

STOP SIGNS "Dear Editor: "Recently an article ap­ peared in your Public Pulse, signed by Mrs. Jerome Bellack of 1409 Fairview, Eastwood Manor. She stated that Arthur T. Tyrrell (sheriff of McHenry county) had a stop sign erected at Eastwood and Manor lane in Eastwood Manor. This article was misleading, because the sheriff has no authority to order a stop sign where school busses stop for children. "Tom Brink, who is a traffic engineer for McHenry County Highway department, and the road commissioner, Clarence Regner, deemed it necessary to make a complete traffic sur­ vey. As a result, five stop signs were erected in Eastwood Manor. Mr. Brink stated that stops are erected at in­ tersections to prevent car accidents and that stop signs cannot be erected every time the school bus stops for children. "This office has received complaints that some cars are not stopping for stop signs in Eastwood Manor. Mrs. Bellak, might write the sheriff, and he can enforce the laws which are related to his job.

"Where will this all end? Shall we all resign ourselves to moving away? Or will we do something about it before it is too late? "Let me point out a few facts. Some people along the river said when the river was at its highest point in 1973, it didn't bother them because they were on high ground. Don't you think the thorough and lengthy soaking we took condensed and weakened the soil close to the river front-not to mention erosion. The rest of us suffered land sinking, and in some cases this means permanent take over of the river? "Any realtor can tell you that river front property is, or was, at a constant premium in demand for the highest prices, #nd we were always content in the knowledge that when we sold our homes it would be at a profit, but is this always going to be the case? Buyers now first ask how high did the water get? The 6 inches and more land we lose a year and land sinking adds up to a bleak future. "Take into consideration most of our flooding comes from Wisconsin in the form of melting snow. Wisconsin had a comparatively light snowfall this winter, but we still had bad floods. This tells me that the floods are not caused by great amounts of unforeseen water entering the river during the season, but by normal amounts that have nowhere to go. "Isn't it possible that the billions of square yards of soil that has eroded from our river fronts and settling on the bottom are finally starting to take its toll in river bottoms that should be holding water? Is it not also possible that the land grabbers who are buying lowlands and spillways cheap and filling them up to build homes are preventing the natural expansion of the river during the high water season? "A lot of the water that once ran in those areas is now running on our property, and in some areas through houses. Last year the government granted loans to rebuild homes but not to replace lost land. To river front owners a large part of their property worth is their river front. "This year the government is sponsoring flood insurance on only the homes. By doing this, they will save many dollars in loans if we become a disaster area again. "Not being an engineer, I don't know if building more dams would help this situation, but common sense tells me that dredging the river would help us in 2 ways. First, it would clean off the bottom making room for more water; and second, by putting the dredgings back up on shore, this would be giving some of our land back. "I have read that they are going to build a large public park on the river front, and I have no doubt that they will truck thousands of square yards of soil for this which of course would be very silly when there, right in front of them, is billions which should be taken. "Governor Dan Walker turned down a bill for dredging the river last year introduced by State Senator Jack Schaffer. I guess the governor feels there are not enough of us to bother with. "Our homes are devaluating now and as the years pass it is going to get much worse if something is not done about this problem soon. Will someone that is in a position to help this situation please do it now!

National Sheriffs' institute, University of Southern California. The two-week course is sponsored by the National Sheriffs' association. Sheriff In Training At University Sheriff Art Tyrrell of McHenry county is presently part of an intensive training program in the latest management techniques at the University of Southern California. Funded by a grant from the Law Enforcement Assistance administration of the United States Department of Justice, the program is sponsored by the National Sheriffs' association through its National Sheriffs' institute. The training is provided by the university's center for the Administration of Justice in its School of Public ad­ ministration. Along with sixty-six other sheriffs from thirty states, Sheriff Tyrrell is participating in classes on supervision, leadership, and notivation of personnel; effective com­ munication; jail management; agency goal-setting and guidance; budgeting and fiscal control; administrative law; and numerous other subjects. The faculty has been drawn from the University of Southern California as well as other universities, and from working practitioners in the field of management and law en­ forcement. ••••••••••••••••••••••••• HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS •••••••••••••••••••••••*• William Cristy Joins FS Board William Cristy, who operates 1,300 acres on McCullom Lake road east of Wonder Lake, was elected to the McHenry FS Board of directors at the ninth annual meeting last weekend. Cristy replaces Earle B. Johnson, Huntley, who retired after twenty years, two days of service on the board of this fast- growing farmer-owned cooperative affiliated with the McHenry County Farm Bureau. Two present board members - Robert Gardner, Solon Mills, and Don Stoxen, Har­ vard-were reelected to the board. All were elected for three-year terms each. The board holds its re-organization meeting early this week. Cristy was a Farm Bureau board member about twelve years ago. His father, Kenneth, was a longtime Farm Bureau member and served on the McHenry FS board for many years, several of them as its president. Cristy is a grain farmer, raising corn and soybeans in his extensive farming operation. He and his wife have three children; two living at home, Terry and Sherri, and a son, Larry, who works for the FS company in Morgan county. Gardner is the president of McHenry FS, succeeding Ken Cristy a few years ago when the latter retired. Gardner operates a dairy farm in partnership with his son, Dave. They farm 280 acres and have 40 registered Holsteins in their milking herd. Stoxen operates more than 600 acres in Chemung township. He and his son, Dick, have a cattle operation and raise corn and soybeans. Big earnings for 1973 have enabled the McHenry FS board to increase its working capital by issuing Class D stock in addition to paying cash for the total of $285,582 returned as patronage refunds to customers. The impact of in­ flation, price fixing, and shortages have created big challenges for the board, and Gardner said McHenry FS is fortunate to have retained capital through Class D stock in recent years. It has been able to increase fuel and fertilizer storage facilities. Former McHenry Man Is Promoted By Chicago Bank Three west suburban men have been promoted at Con­ tinental Illinois Bank and Trust company of Chicago. They include David A.
