Percy 1,400 At Career Fair America: 1976, on the sur­ face may appear to some ob­ servers to be a fast-paced, commercialized society gaud­ ily wrapped in red, white and blue bunting. The year-long Bicentennial celebration has given rise to advertising gim­ micks, TV specials and an in­ evitable measure of political rhetoric. But there has been a more thoughtful side to the Bicen­ tennial. Americans across the country, in hundreds of differ­ ent ways, have taken time to look back and take stock of their past. The Japanese- Americans, for example, or­ ganized a national photo­ graphic survey (1840-1976) of their history in this country. Greek-Americans have taken steps to preserve the first Greek Orthodox church in America, built in 1576 in St. Augustine, Florida. Nineteen seventy-six finds America very introspective. The war in Vietnam, Water­ gate and more recent Wash­ ington scandals have under­ scored both the strengths and weaknesses of our institutions and our political system. But what many Americans fail to realize is that in all of these recent crises, public protest and concern were the only weapons effective enough to bring about remedial change. Our system of government is based on public involvement. It works effectively only when the American people exercise their political muscle. I have tried to emphasize this fact as I have gone across Illinois speaking to high school students on the Bicen­ tennial. In the past six months I have had the oppor­ tunity to address more than 30,000 students and have been very impressed with their depth of knowledge on do­ mestic and foreign issues and their interest in election-year politics. Apparently, however, their interest goes only that far. Very few of the high school seniors who had reached their 18th birthdays could tell me they had regis­ tered to vote. Only 44'r of the nation's 19 to 29-year-old citizens have bothered to register. And election day statistics show that in the past few years fewer and fewer eligible vot­ ers, young or old, bother to go to the polls. The Bicentennial has al­ lowed Americans to redis­ cover their past and to re­ affirm their belief in their country. It should not be used to escape the reality of the problems and challenges our country faces today. In 1787, eleven years after the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and four years after the Revolutionary war ended, Benjamin Rush, one of our greatest patriots, looked ahead optimistically to a long and prosperous life for the new nation. "The American war is over," Rush said, "but this is far from the end of the American revolution. On the contrary, only the first act of the great drama is at a close." As a nation and a people, we have lived many acts in the American drama since 1787. It is up to us to set our future course. Our Founding Fathers wrote the Constitution and proclaimed: "We, the People of the United States, in order Approximately 1,400 high school students and parents from McHenry county attended the third annual Career Fair held at McHenry County college last week. Representatives from eighty-two schools and agencies were present. The Fair is a no-cost, cooperative program sponsored by McHenry County college and all of the high school districts in the county every October. to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure do­ mestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general vvelfare, and se­ cure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and our poster­ ity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America." If as Americans we share the goals of the American revolutionaries then we must actively work to keep our country directed towards those goals. Americans must use the political freedoms granted in the Constitution and exercise their right to vote. This is an election year. I hope that in the spirit of '76 Americans stop watching the political ball game from the sidelines and begin taking an active role in building our common future. Vte lel+Thfe Info.

They play loud music at all hours and raid my freezer until there's nothing left I have always tried to be patient with my daughter and I think we have a good mother- daughter relation­ ship She does what I ask. usually, and we get along marvelously But her friends are disrespectful and rude I don't want to hurt my daughter's feelings by telling her I disapprove of her company but maybe it would be better in the long run How should I tell her to look for a new set of friends9 WORRIED MOTHER Dear WORRIED Unless you disapprove of your daughter's friends for something other than their loud music and eating habits, don't tell her to abandon their company. Think of the mothers whose children are involved in drug circles and con­ sider yourself pretty lucky All you have to worry about is telling her friends, very politely, to please turn the stereo down and See M6 jCU/ifUJfr in all your insurance needs!

My friends have gotten into this "religious kick" where they have seances once or twice a week So far. I have refused their in­ vitation to join because 1 prefer to practice religion my own way I go to church fairly regular­ ly and consider myself a good Christian But they are pres­ suring me to try these ses­ sions where they say I can get more in touch with myself It all seems pretty weird to me. The meetings are held behind locked doors in an old spooky house These people don't even know who owns the house! I don't want them to be mad at me, but I don't want to participate either. Do you think I should try it or not? WOULD RATHER STAY OUT Dear RATHER STAY OUT: It seems to me that you've made, up your mind to stay out and now all you're looking for is a vote of approval. Well, you've certainly got that from me! It sounds strange to me also Tell your friends you've got your own way of expressing yourself re­ ligiously and that it's working for you just fine You're better off to practice religion in church or somewhere other than a haunted mansion In fact, you might be avoiding trouble altogether by telling them they are trespassing on private property and that you don't think that's quite the right thing to do Best Of Press Wisely Put The sum of wisdom is that time is never lost that is devoted to work. -Grit.
