d Mtzr {font, home, ' -~L_rri_ , Limburger cheese " * . ' • / How we react to what happens to us is often more important than what happens in the first place. It would be a tragedy if someone threw acid in your eyes and blinded you. But how you reacted to that blindness could b§ worse than the blindness itself, especially if it made you bitter and cynical. A poor attitude will trip even the most nimble-footed. It has been said -- and rightly so -- that altitude depends on attitude. The two are like inseparable twins, for altitude never runs ahead of attitude. It's amazing that how far and how high we go in life-is so wrapped up in that little 8-letter word cal led att i tude. I think the world is still waiting for new altitude records to be set in such areas £fs self-discipline, moral and spiritual maturity, family life, vocational ex­ cellence, etc. And tied up with all of these is attitude. For example, if a fellow has limburger cheese on his^ upper lip, he probably thinks the whole world smells. You know to begin with he's not going v&ry far. Men have been setting altitude records in space for a long time, beginning as far back as October 15, 1783 when a Frenchman by the name of J.P. Pilatre de Rozier ascended 80 feet in a hot air balloon. From there, we've gone to the world's record set by three astronauts who reached a height of 248,665 miles on April 15, 1970. (It was the circum-lunar flight of U.S. Apollo XIII, manned by John L. Swigert, James A. Lovell and Fred W. Haise.) Most of us aren't expecting to break that kind of record. But we might reach new altitudes above lit­ tleness and mediocrity. Especially if we wiped the limburger cheese off our lips. \ K.J.

This cabin originally stood on Roosevelt's Maltese Cross ranch, and is now maintained by the U.S. Park Service at Theodore Roosevelt National Park, Mendora, N.D. Jack Morris New Village Police Officer* Notes from the village board meeting, July 8; Eleanor Reid, a representative of the American Legion, was at the meeting, where she presented the village with an American Hag, given to us by the legion. There is a new police officer presently going through his probationary period. He is Jack Morris of N. Spring road. Two other officers, Greg Bliznick and John Sellers have resigned their positions. Some extra police radar was donated to the village of McHenry Shores. The board is working on new park and beach ordinances, mainly concerning boats and boat launchings. The raft has been in and out of the water, and is now in again, hopefully till the end of summer! It seems a few people keep damaging the raft whenever it's put out, then no one gets to use it. Another street light is going up, this one at West End and Fountain Lane. And the board is thinking of having stop signs and speed limit signs installed at various places to cut the speeding that's been going on. If anyone has or knows of a place to get a reasonably priced duplicating machine, they're asked to contact the clerk, Karen Parks, as the village is in need of one. Civil defense director Alyce Shroeder spoke about the probability of a village evacuation drill in the near future. To qualify for federal assistance in a disaster, a munictpality must not only have a civil defense director, but also be active in defense projects. For this reason, Ms." Shroeder urges all residents to cooperate in the drill. The planning commission is still active, and meeting monthly, but needs some new members now. rules are that ENROLLS IN COLLEGE Maria Metzger, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Metzger, 4301 North Riverview drive, McHenry has been accepted at Saint Francis college, Fort Wayne, Ind., for the fall, 1975 term.

NEW RESIDENTS We have new neighbors on W Lake Shore Drive where the Morris family used to live. They are Ron and Barb Svoboda and their two daughters, Cindy, 4, and Amy, 1'2 years old. The Svobodas are not new to this area, as they ,formerly lived in If your radio gets turned on while you're away, it might not get ripped off while you're away. If you're going to be away for ^awhile^you should arrange to have your apartment occupied. Occupied, that is, electronically. There are timing devices on the market that can turn on lights, and even turn on your radio, all at pre-set times. To a would-be burglar, the sound of a radio means someone's home, and that means he'd better try elsewhere. You can even get- a timer that can be set to activate appliances several times a day. The craftiest burglar would never suspect. The best time to use timers is while you're on vacation or on weekends away from home. But it's a good idea to use them all the time. A burglar can take advantage of an evening on the town as easily as a two-week vacation. You can pick up these burglar-proofing devices from your hardware, department or discount stores for a few dollars. And they don't use any more current than an electric clock. That's a small price to pay for all the protection you're getting. Comnionwealth Edison Working lor you. •r Lakeland Park, and Mr. Svoboda is the principle of Montini school. We welcome the Svobodas to McCuliom Lake and hope they enjoy living here.
