Three weeks ago we wrote about the expected kittens who were doomed to die at birth, and asked for nursing cat mothers to take the broods. The owner of the parent cats and the kittens is a breeder who dealt in pedigreed cats only and he planned to dettroy the litter* at birth. The Helping Pawt rescue mission picked up two litters last week and placed them in homes with nursing mother cats. A reasonable question might be why go in to Chicago's near north side at any hour the call might come about the births and pick up two littera of kit- tent when McHenry county has an over-abundance of kittens at any and all times? There are reasons and they are humane ones. HP hat never been faced with a similar problem before. Moat owners call when the kittens are about six weeks old and have had a chance to get a start no matter what their end. But these little unborns were not going to have even that six weeks of life with a possible chance of adoption. HP wanted to give them this break. What's more, how do you erase something like this from your consciousness when you have learned about it? It's practically impossible. And on a more practical note HP feels the kittens will be top priority adoptables. To set the record straight, for those who might think there's a profit angle in it, HP actually loses $3 on each cat adoption, so money is not a factor. After several trial and error attempts HP placed seven of the kittens with a very capable mother who had just completed nursing her own, and two with a mother who had four two-week old kittens. If all goes well they will be offered for adoption when they are six weeks old. And with the success of the adoptions the life-saving mission will be completed. This is what humane work is all about.

Schweiss was elected to represent members of the forty-six Iaons clubs of District 1-F, one of the twelve districts in the state. District 1-F in­ cludes Lake county and goes north of Chicago to the Wisconsin state line. The Illinois Institute of Natural Resources will provide assistance to Ulinoisians seeking grants for appropriate technology development from the U.S. Department of Energy, it was announced Thursday. "Preparing applications for federal grants can sometimes be difficult," said Mike Ed­ wards, director of the In­ stitute's Division of Alternate Energy. "Persons who have questions about the grant proposals should call us at 217- 782-1449." The U.S. Department of Energy was to announce on Aug. 4 that $950,000 in grant funds would be made available in U.S. DOE's Region V (which includes Illinois) and two other regions for model programs in appropriate technology. The term appropriate technology refers to technologies that are especially applicable to the needs of communities; that use locally available natural resources, especially those that are renewable; that conserve energy and are en­ vironmentally sound, and that are amall-scale, low in cost and' simple to install and operate. "Illinois provides many opportunities for making use of appropriate technologies," said Edwards. "A farmer, for example, might build a small pond that can provide a means of soil conservation, function as a water source for stock and agriculture, serve for recreation and provide elec­ tricity through hydroelectric generation. ' "A homeowner could design a greenhouse that would make multiple use of solar energy, capturing heat to allow year- round gardening and to warm the home," Edwards added. Another example is the op­ portunity for a small business that could gather crop wastes from several farms and use solar energy or hydropower produced from one of the 840 existing small dams in the state to process the wastes into an alcohol that could be added to PAGE 5 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, AUGUST 11,1978 the individual or community level or to make the most ef­ ficient use possible of our energy and other natural resources."

The federal grants are available for any of three phases of technology development: concept development, design or demonstration The grant funds will be ap­ portioned according to the number of proposals selected. Maximum awards for concept development will be $10,000, while up to $50,000 will be available for design or demonstration phases The U.S. Department of Energy can answer technical questions related to grant proposals. A toll-free number has been designated (800-621- 3194) "Appropriate technology," Edwards aid, "is characterized by multiplicity -of benefits, of functions, of impacts. "The federal grant program offers an unique opportunity for Illinoisians to bring new ideas to fruition, to achieve a new level of energy independence at * * * • Real service: Filling a small job as if it were a big job.
