PAGE 14 - PLAINDEALKR-FRIDAY, JANUARY It. If7« McHenry Shores Inge ^Ide 344 1984 Present Draft Of Manual To Village B/oard At the regular meeting of the hoard of trustees on Jan. 21, everyone except the village clerk was present. President Lillegard presented the rough draft of a manual of ap­ proximately 40 pages discussing job descriptions, procedures and inner depart­ mental responsibilities. It was noted that a letter from Frederick Heald had been received pertaining to proposed changes of the school bus stops. President Lillegard referred the matter to the Public Health and Safety committee for their review. It was requested that • they present their findings at the next board meeting. Parks and Buildings \ Chairman Don Henderlong, » informed the board that notification has been received that negotiations can now begin to purchase a building for a village hall. Authorization was given to proceed. Police chief, Earl Buck, submitted his an­ nual report. Since board meetings are held twice a month and since many of the items are referred to the various committees, efforts will be made to cut down the time of the meetings, so that in the future they can adjourn by 9 p.m. SCHOOL BUS STOPS Between the time this article is being written and the time it is published, a meeting of the Public Health and Safety v committee will be held on Jan. 29, at 7:30 p.m. at the village hall. I shall report on the fin­ dings as soon as they are available to me. VILLAGE BUSINESS Please remem ber to buy your vehicle stickers before the i deadline. The village hall is open Monday through Friday, 3 to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Their telephone number is 385-8500. You do not have to have your new license plates to get the car stickers. Also, don't forget to ask for the village dog tags which are free. All you have to do is present your current rabies certificate. Remember, these tags are required. They will facilitate locating the owners of runaway dogs. HUNTING ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF McHENRYSHORES On a request from police chief. Earl Buck, the chairman of the committee for Public Health and Safety, John Novotny, contacted Cal Skinner, Jr. in regard to hunting in the unincorporated areas adjacent to the village. A reply was received from the Illinois Department of Con­ servation informing us that the property in question was a "No Hunting" area. Since at this tinr^tbere are no signs of this nature posted, investigators will be sent out to check into this matter and to post new signs. A warning is hereby given to residents and non­ residents that no hunting is allowed on said property. REQUEST BY POST OFFICE OFFICIALS During the last heavy snowfalls, mail carriers have sometimes found it difficult to reach mail boxes. Will you please make sure that the snow is removed around your mail box in order to facilitate the mailmen's job? BIRTHDAYSAND ANNIVERSARIES Howard Lexow had a bir­ thday on Jan. 17.

All the best to you for the future and much happiness. - CLOSE TO MY HEART This time I have rather a lengthy sermon of things that are close to mv heart. The fatal scnool bus accident in another subdivision probably shocked all of us deeply. I personally wilt remember it for a long • time whenever I pass children on the road. And I beg of you, please drive carefully, especially in the winter time. Also, do make an extra point with your children to watch out on the streets, especially on their way to school. It is a well- known fact that a group of children will always be more daring than any one child on his own, but if you inform them of the dangers repeatedly, there will be a much better chance that such a terrible thing will not happen here. The other thing is not such a serious matter, fortunately. You may have wondered why there was no column during the past two weeks. Well, there was just not enough information to make it worth my while. If I were a full time reporter, I could go out and look for news wherever I find it. Since I am not, I would appreciate if at least a part of the news could be brought to me. I'd love to wish ail of you well on your bir­ thdays and anniversaries. It would also be nice to hear about your parties and trips. Or if you know of any news that concerns this village, if you have opinions that are of interest to the comrffonity, I shall write them up. Remember, as I've said before, this is your column, it is here for your in­ formation and your enjoyment. So, if there is anything you'd like to tell me about, please call me any weekday after 5 p.m. I would love to hear from you. Police Tickets Thomas Ruggero, 3705 W.

PUBLIC PULSE (The Plaindealer invites the public to use this column as an expression of their views on subjects of general interest in our community. Our only request is that the writers give - signature, full ad­ dress and phone number. We ask too, that one in­ dividual not write on the same subject more than once each month. We reserve the right to delete any material which we con­ sider libelous or inobjec- tional taste.) SAVE THE OLD BRIDGE "Editor: "On Jan. 23rd. "Musirf' and Meanderin'" of the Plaindealer carried a letter from William Howenstine, one of the trustees on the McHenry County Con­ servation board, which, to me, seemed to be the most in­ telligent and practical solution to the old bridge hassle. "During slimmer days and even through the nights there are fishermen on both bridges taking advantage of the few accesses to the water left, in­ stead of trespassing on private property. A* "Have you ever tried walking across the state bridge on Route 120 in bad weather? The walk is so narrow you get a drenching from water and snow as cars speed by. "Many cities, San Antonio, Texas, in particular, have taken advantage of their waterways and made them scenic as well as practical thoroughfares. " M r . H o w e n s t i n e ' s suggestion to make this historical landmark a cycling and pedestrian bridge, should gain him many plaudits from McHenry and county citizens interested in safety, economy, and the development of one of our great natural resources. "C'mpn, join the rescue! "Norb Mauch" THE OLD BRIDGE "Editpr: "While driving through McHenry Saturday morning, my children said, 'Mom, let's take the old bridge,' " 'Why?' I asked. And they replied, 'Because we like this old bridge and we heard the city wants to tear it down.' "'Why shouldn't they tear it down?' I queried them. 'Because it's a part of Mchenry and we'll miss it, so can we please go over it now while it's still here?' they said. "I was very pleased to know that it is not only the adults of this area, but the children as well, that are concerned with saving the old bridge. "What kind of Bicentennial spirit would we have to celebrate our country's bir­ thday by destroying an already named historical landmark? "Carol Garlinski" JOINS HONOR SOCIETY Gregory Schmitt, son of Daniel Schmitt, 3914 N. Hillcrest, McHenry, was recently inituated into the Bradley university chapter of the national honorary society, Phi Kappa Phi. Gregory, who is a senior pre-professional Biology major, was one of 81 Bradley juniors, seniors and graduate students initiated into the society. Alliance Church To View Exciting Film Febuary I The Alliance church, 3815 W. Bull Valley road, McHenry, will be viewing the film, "A Time For Every Season", Sunday, Feb. 1, at 7 p.m. A man and his 12-year-old ' nephew camp out on the fierce and treeless Alskan tundra, ^finding beauty and excitement in a land where no people and few animals live. As the seasons change, Jeff begins to recognize the Master Artist behind this awesome creation. The challenge of storms, of animals and the harsh terrain affect young Jeff as he begins to pause with a new awareness of the Creator whose intricate love and care gives purpose, meaning and direction to the lives of men who take the time to know him. Highly acclaimed as a sen­ sitive and moving documentary film, the public is invited to this true life adventure. ' HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS New Surchange For Operator Placed Calls The few Illinois Bell customers who choose to have an operator place their local calls will pay a 50-cent sur­ charge for each call, to be ef­ fective about Feb. 1. The surcharge replaces the present rate for operator- assisted local calls - 30 cents for the first three minutes apd 10 cents for each additional minute. Illinois Bell said about 170,000 operator-assisted local calls are placed each month, but only about 25,000 of the calls have been billed at the 30 cents- for - the - first - three - minutes rate. The rate was not levied in these four situations (and the new surcharge will also not apply in the same situations): (1) on calls to Illinois Bell for official telephone business or emergency calls to designated emergency numbers; (2) on calls by disabled persons; (3) on calls placed after repeated busy signals; and (4) on calls where assistance is requested due to telephone equipment problems or service problems on the line. The new charge was called for by a recent Illinois Com­ merce commission order. The rate will consist of the 50-cent surcharge plus the usual rate for a dialed local call. For example, in the Chicago metropolitan area, where a local call costs one unit, an operator-assisted call will cost 50 cents plus one unit. In communities that have a flat- rate local calling area, just the 50-cent surcharge will apply, since an unliminted number of local calls is included in the monthly charge for flat-rate service. The bow on men's hats is said to be a carryover from bygone ages, when all men's hats were made the same size. Each owner adjusted the band to make the hat fit his head, and tied the ends of the band to hold it there. l€qR out Northern Illinois BUICK'S for LESS '76 CENTURY SPECIAL Fully Equipped .... ::^rs7w>:; aith Presbyterian Churct West of the Outdoor Theatre John O.

It is easier to^nake one's way through the snow where someonte has trudged before. At the heart of the Christian religion is the belief that God gave his own Son, to be our Savior... and also to be our example. The study of his life is, there­ fore, an important part of Christian education. Though we cannot aspire to be like Him -- we can learn to meet life's challenges and crises with the same resolute courage and commitment. . Why plunge aimlessly on?
