Grandma Sez ••• RUMMAGE SALE The Level I parent group of the Special Education district of McHenry county (SEDOM) is holding a rummage sale Friday, April 5, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday, April 6, from 9 a.m. to noon at the SEDOM Educational center, 1200 Dane street, Woodstock. Proceeds from the sale will be used to buy special equipment for the new SEDOM center. The center is located just off Kishwaukee Valley road, near the Borden Milk plant. (Take Kishwaukee Valley road to Borden lane). SEDOM provides educational and diagnostic services to children and young adults throughout McHenry county. It's an age-old story, that one voice yells, "Lynch 'em," an' th' whole crowd takes up th' cry, becomin' horrendously vindictive, demandin' drastic action, afore all th' facts 're in. Seems like it ain't becomin't' adults, in this day o' advanced edication, t' act like wolves, a tearin' at a carcass. Havin' faith, long enough t' give th' other feller a fair chance, ne'er did any harm, t' my way o' thinkin'. Many an innocent man's lost his life, fer th' reason that popular opinion convicted him, afore th' truth was known. It's a real disappointin' t' find our trust betrayed. Strong men ain't deterred, wi' that t' be th' case, no matter what th' cost. Perseverin' determination t' succeed, fer th' goals involved, deserves admiration, an' indicates belief that th' truth will prevail. It takes great courage t' stand up fer what one believes, against all odds. Th' majority o' folks 're led by popular opinion, influenced wi' favorite news media. They ferget that our means o' information's prepared by folks, interested in promotin' their own endeavors, t' make a splash in th' "News world." They seem t' ferget that what they read's another person's opinion, allowin' their thinkin' t' be affected by what they read. Personal opinions o' those, impartin' th' news, 'd be better, confined t' special columns. Reportin' th' news, affectin' a whole nation, an' not only ours, but all over th' world, is serious work. It takes 200 Senior Citizens Hear Choral Preview sensible, mature people, t' do a decent job o' it, an' those 're hard t' find, fer that work, in th' opinion o' this ol' lady. There ain't much good news, these days. It bothers this granny, th' way folks look fer trouble, 'r anythin' that smacks o' scandal, t' make up th' reports, t' get attention from th' public. Th' modern, most popular source o' news, has affected th' thinkin' o' th' individual, wi'out awareness o' what's happenin'. Visible reportin', certain expressions accompanied wi' a certain tone o' voice, strongly influences th' listener. It did me heart good, t' other day, t' hear a well-known commentator, substantiate th' fact. Responsible news-folk 're beginnin't' realize that harm may result from it. Anyway, it behooves us all, t' keep an open mind, 'til all th' facts 're in, an' judged. Conclusions, drawn afore-hand, 's th' act o' fools, 'cause it's only assumption, th' first three letters o' the word describin' th' one who does it. Grandma Radtke MARRIAGE LICENSES Edward R.

This is an anrnial event at which time S\^eet Adeline choruses compete for the title of regional champs and the opportunity to go on into international competition. Hie local chapter planned to compete, but due to the late arrival of the official charter, and only two weeks prior notice of eligibility, the feeling was unanimous that it would be better not to try at this time.
