ANEW DIMENSION Nature has been the balance wheel for everything. It has set the limits* of all living creatures. Species unable to adapt to their surroundings have become extinct. This has been true for probably coun­ tless centuries. The advent of man has added a new dimension to nature. Man's extended intellectual capacity has made it possible for him to survive in hostile places. For example, man has learned to exist in the frigid zones, deserts, swamps, etc. This same ability has enabled him to temporarily withstand the pressures of the sea, which he's explored at some length. This unique gift made it possible for man to develop vehicles capable of flight and exploration of limited areas of his galaxy. Man's intelligence is only partially realized. It may never be fully applied - so great is its potential. How can man be assured to making use of this power? He needs to review where he's been, what he's done, and what he's doing. From such reflection, he can better use his intelligence to chart further goals and direction. To make use of this capacity, man must experience many things, gain skills and develop values which will permit him to survive and continue to grow. To do this, man needs to recognize his strengths and build on them, as well as ex­ plore his potential. Man's ability to use language makes him different from other species. Man can use language to explain the environment and his activity in it. The preser­ vation of previously held thoughts passed down in various forms, such as symbols and writings, has resulted in even greater achievements for man. He can study and review the past. Man's knowledge of the past and the present gives him a great advantage. Species who don't have this capacity must learn anew, generation after generation. There's no way they can transfer information and behavior beyond the lifetime of each generation. Generation hereto includes parent and offspring. The rich past expands man's horizon. Past activities JOSEPH KOZMA LYNETTE TRIER RTA VIEWS ~ The Plaindealer photographer and a reporter walked through McHenry shopping areas Friday afternoon and asked passersby to express themselves on the merits of the Regional transportation Authority to be voted March 19. Several said they were unacquainted with the RTA proposal but not one person interviewed was in favor of it. Joseph Kozma of Lakemoor, at left above, said "No. We tried a couple of years ago lo have a bus between here and Waukegan and it folded". Mrs. Lynette Trier of McHenry commented, "No, because it wouldn't be something we would utilize from here". BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH? NO! WELCOME THE I.D.E.S.

Sunday preserved by language makes it possible to explore new processes more intensively. Thought supported by language allows man to hold a concept in his mind and treat it thoroughly. Using hypotheses, man can make multiple assumptions. The resulting theories can be scrutinized and acted upon. Proving theories to be true or false has evolved with thinking. History has shown man often sets his own limits. For­ tunately, his quest to knpw eroded away previously held views - for example, the earth center concept of the universe. Increased technology has accelerated the rate of change. It can be considered both good and bad. On the one hand, technology has lessened man's physical labors. However, technological advancement is not without its dark side. It has created new problems, such as pollution and the loss of raw material needed to sustain the present way of life. Man must once again engage his ability, the thinking process, to solve his problems. He's received warnings con­ cerning the need to think beyond the present. For example, bombs capable of destroying all life J»ave been developed. An energy crisis threatens life styles the world over. Pollution created by man's hand grows steadily. The loss of the natural environment is a concern. How can man best solve these s e e m i n g l y ' u n s o l v a b l e problems? He'll have to use his ability to think and reason. He'll need to bring to bear all the concerns surrounding each of today's problems. His capacity to use his thought process extensively is premium. How can these problems be solved? Concepts about every jriacet of man's life will need to withstand rigorous in­ vestigation. Language will enable man to see these problems and theorize about them. If solutions are to be achieved, man must be allowed to develop his innate capacity as far as potential will permit. Fetters chaining man to the past must be broken. To obtain this state, man needs many experiences. He must submit himself to rigoroUs training of Junior High Music Groups Give Concert The McHenry Junior high school chorus, cadet band and concert band will present' a concert Thursday, March 14, at 8 p.m. at the McHenry Junior high school.
