SECTION 2-PAGE 6-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY. JUNE 5, 1974 McHenry Shores Mrs. Rose Lillegard 385-8500 Church World Service In Last County Stop CMI Defense Department Given Three Radios The regular board of trustees meeting held May 23 showed the regular routine business, with the exception of two major items. One being the approval for the purchase of three radios for the civil defense department, one to be placed in the squad car, one in the automobile of civil defense director William Pinkonsly, Jr., and one to be placed in the president's automobile. It was felt that with the emergency disaster plan it was necessary to have the , vital' communications in order to implement the plan. The second major item was the creek. Clerk Lillegard informed the board that she had observed the overflow of the creek with the past rains and called the State Waterways Department to see if the creek on the state property could be dredged and cleared of debris. The reply received from the state waterway department was most encouraging and hopefully the creek will be dredged and cleaned. BEACH REPAIRS Donald Henderlong, chairman of the Parks and Public Buildings committee has set Saturday, June 1, for the repair of the beach pier and general beach repairs. Those residents who wish to donate their time are requested to contact .Don Henderlong 385- 3214. Materials will be supplied. SOLICITORS - CAUTION It has been brought to my attention that there have been solicitors within the village limits. Please...If you are approached, ask to see their permit from the village to allow them to solicit. If they do not have one, please inform the village clerk. There has only been one permit issued for this year and that is to the ice cream vendor. CONGRATULATIONS Robert and Barbara Diebold are the proud parents of a baby girl born May 20 at 5:07 p.m. and weighed in at 8 lbs., 10 oz. The new addition to the family has been' named Debra. To welcome home Debra from the McHenry hospital were Michael, 8 years old, Kevin, 6 years old and Michele, 2Vi years old. The proud grandparents are Marcel and Marie Diebold of Chicago and John and Elsie Lux also of Chicago. The big Church World Service truck has made its last stop at the McHenry County Clothing depot in the Presbyterian church in Woodstock to pick up used clothing for overseas programs and domestic disaster relief. Arthur Dillon reports thait changing needs in church programs overseas as well as rising costs of the trucking operation have caused CWS to shorten its lines. Truck service will continue primarily only on the east coast near eastern sea ports and the CWS processing center in Maryland. At its last stop locally on May 20 the truck picked up over 1,000 pounds of clothing and blankets which Church World Service will use to help victims of disasters and other needy people throughout the world. This total represents contributions for fourteen churches in McHenry county and nearby areas who take part in this cooperative effort. "Some of our women have already been sewing or knitting new clothes for babies and children. They simply must continue to do that," continues Dillon. "Now, however, they will need to send them by mail to the CWS center in New Windsor, Maryland, 21776. Or they can give cash to buy clothing and blankets. The CWS Clothing Appeal isn't going out of business by any means. It is merely changing. People need help more than ever, but what is needed most are the things that can help develop their skills ~ help them earn their own way. This can be accomplished by sending sewing machines and supplies and fabrics and other items that can help people learn to earn. Dillon also called attention to Consumer Forum *%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%•%%.%%%%%•%%: Teacher, Several Students Explore Athabasca Glacier Dick Meyers, Science instructor at Big Hollow school, will be accompanied by five students this summer when they explore the Athabasca Glacier in Canada's Jasper National park. Meyers' wife, Ellen, and daughter, Michele, will also accompany the group, but will not actually travel the glacier on foot as will the teacher and his students. Big Hollow Students, Ron Emmrich, Mike Fatta, Dean Clark and Science Club President Scott Freund will accompany their teacher on this expedition. The group will be joined by two park rangers in Jasper when they are ready to begin their three-day journey across the Glacier. Meyers will be taking slides and motion picture films of this expedition. Both will be used as part of Big Hollow's Science program next year, particularly at the seventh grade level where Earth Science is a major part of the Big Hollow curriciilum. The Big Hollow teacher and his wife were in Jasper in 1968 when they travelled the glatfier by snowmobile. The group >frill also journey to Vancouver Island on the Canadian Pacific coast where they will spend some time in Victoria, capital city of the Canadian province of British Columbia, and considered by many Canadians to be "the most British city in all North America". Meyers, his family and three students will leave for the Florida Keys June 19 for three weeks of skin and scuba diving and sea explorations. Meyers usually makes his Florida journey during Christmas vacation each year, which is what he plans this coming December, but he has wanted to return to the keys during the summer when the ocean is a comfortable 80 degrees, which he considers ideal for diving purposes. Meyers and his family plan to return home for only a couple of weeks in July before leaving for Jasper National park. # * k * The laugh is the most powerful of voice weapons. * • • • Success that is perma­ nent comes slowly, if at all. * • • • By Illinois Attorney General William J. Scott Warm weather and holiday weekends are upon us, and it's a great time for swimming. But how many people will die this summer in avoidable swimming accidents? That is an unhappy question with which to begin a column, but, unfortunately, many such tragedies will occur before the first fall snow. T The rules, the advice for preventing swimming tragedies, all are matters of common sense. But they bear repeating: / SWIMMING SAFETY ADVICE 1. If you don't know how to swim-learn! Ideally, children should learn to swim as soon as feasible. And they should be taught by qualified instructors. There are many fine public and private swimming courses offered throughout Illinois. Find such a course near your home and see to it that each family member learns to swim. 2. Don't ever swim alone. And be certain you and your children swim only in a place where there is adequate professional supervision and adequate lifesaving and resuscitation equipment. How many stories do we read each year about a child drowning in a local swimming hole where there was no supervision?* Teach your children never to swim alone without supervision - and then take your own advice, no matter how EER really stands for Energy Efficiency Ratio. And if you're buying an air conditioner this summer, you should know about it. You may not realize this, but some air conditioners use a lot more electricity than others to cool the same amount of space And in the summer; when the heat gets unbearable and millions of people turn on their air conditioners to find relief, this can amount to a significant waste of electricity On a normal summer day, as the graph above shows, Commonwealth Edison may have to deliver three to four million kilowatts more than on an average winter day To meet this summer demand, extra amounts of fuel must be burned. By making sure you buy the kind of air conditioner that gives the same cooling with less electricity you can save money and save us all critically needed fuel. The thing to check is known as the EER, an engineers term which stands for Energy Efficiency Ratio. And there's information on every air conditioner that lets you figure it out. JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUNE JULY AUG SEPT OCT NOV DEC SIMPLIFIED GRAPH OF SEASONAL DEMAND FOR ELECTRICITY You don't have to be an engineer to find the EER. All the information you need to buy an efficient air conditioner can be found on the metal plate attached to the unit. MODEL NUMBER ACR2DB74F •r) vous CYCLE PHASE 115 60 1 AMPS NMTTS 75 6000 Our recommended energy efficiency ratio for an air condi­ tioner is 7 or more, so the one with an EER of 7 is the one you should buy. Low efficiency units have EERs of around 5 or 6. - You save money, too. You've already found that the second example is the more efficient air conditioner. It will probably cost a little more to buy, but because it's more efficient, it would cost less to operate. In the long run, an efficient air conditioner helps keep electricity rates as low as possible. And right now, an efficient air conditioner helps conserve our country's natural resources. Commonwealth Edison concern lor your total environment BTUS WATTS To get the EER, simply divide the BTUs by the watts. If you're comparing two 6,000-BTU models for efficiency it would look like this: m WAT™ 10- 6 ItfiTTS the CWS Hunger Appeal known as CROP. "With millions of people actually facing starvation, I think it is even more important to give food than clothing," he states. "Money or farm produce given through CROP is used by Church World Service to help feed a lot of people who wouldn't have enough to eat without it in emergencies. And millions more use CROP tools, seeds, and small implements to earn a better living from poor and stubborn soils. Those wishing more information or to make a contribution may contact Dillon at 815-338-5498. Or they may contact Lowell Brown, the regional CROP director, 416 South Seventh Street, Springfield, Illinois 62701. CROP, the Community Hunger Appeal of Church World Service also administers the CWS Clothing Appeal. excellent your swimming ability. 3. Don't overdo. Don't try to swim too far out in the lake, for example. Remember, you have "to swim back. A good lifeguard will call you in, but use your own common sense. 4. Don't swim right after a meal, or if you have been ill. Cramps or early tiredness may hit you. 5. If you take your children to a neighbor's pool, or your own back yard facility, don't get engrossed in poolside conversation and forget to watch. A few seconds of inattention can lead to a life of remorse and guilt. 6. If you own a pool, keep it safe. Have a gate that latches and locks, and a fence that is high and sturdy enough to keep out unwary trespassers or curious children. If possible, install an alarm system. Keep shallow and deep ends marked clearly. 7. Don't swim in an unknown pond. It may be deeper than you anticipate, or have a sudden shallow-to-deep shelf. 8. Don't roughhouse in or near water. 9. Don't swim in bad weather. 10. Don't swim in poorly lighted or unlighted areas at night. For every piece of swimming safety advice I've offered, you may be able to come up with another of your own. Good. Make a list. Clip this one. Read it each time you and your children swim.
