We have a slogan that simply capsules our policies. We call it the three Rs'. No, not "reading, 'riting or 'rithmetic", but rather Rescue, Rehabilitation and Relocation. ,~Resue of course refers to the many strays we take in when injured; the rehabilitation- comes when we place that stray or injured animal into a foster home where it once again can have a taste of the good life, the DISCONTINUE SURVEY With the Chamber of Com­ merce recommendation that stores open only one night a g r e e u p o n F r i d a y , t h e problem in the McHenry business community has been solved.

We pay all medical expenses to the foster home during this period of care, and provide supplies. In cases where someone has a pet but who it proven unable to pay the medical care, we provide a special assistance. Of course, through our newspapers, we are able to place pets for adoption. Our adoption programs are very strict and in compliance with state laws. We advocate the neutering of dogs although the state law does not; however all female dogs and cats and male cats, must be neutered when adopted from us. We also visit all homes of those adopted, to make sure the adoption contract con ditions are being met All of these programs take time.

Cans of food are still a must as we feed her a mixture of canned and dry. Please bring anthing to our office at 465 Virginia street (Route 14) a few doors east of Dole in Crvstal Lake or drop off supplies at 446 Porter, a few blocks south of Route 14, off of McHenry avenue in Crystal Lake. Please help us. Our tag day request for helpers is receiving responses. Hopefully more of you out there will join us in Crystal Lake on June 16. Tag day is a big fund raiser for us. Representatives will stand in front of various store and business locations with an HP can in which we hope area residents will con­ tribute generously. Also at a few locations will be colorfully decorated large round tubs in which we will be placing pet supplies to help feed and care for our strays.

Today's Youth BY PATRICK DUDGEON Be Careful of Credit Young people are fast'be- coming eligible for financial credit opportunities. Keep in mind that credit can be a two- sided coin: It's both a blessing and a burden. The same credit that is a blessing because it permits you to use goods while paying for them can become a burden if used unwisely. Credit can increase the cost of goods, reduce the amount of money you have available for future use and may even cause you financial difficulties of a larger nature. Following are some tips for young adults considering en­ tering the ranks of those encum­ bered by credit. If you can't an­ swer yes to the questions, you need to evaluate and improve your credit use habits. --Do you avoid using credit whenever possible? --Do you compare total credit costs, including interest and other costs, for the lowest amount before using credit? --Do you pay the full amount due on credit card accounts to avoid paying finance costs? --Do you know how much credit adds to the cost of items? --Do you know how much is paid for credit costs each month and each year? Plan to use credit as infre­ quently as possible. Keep cred­ it payments within safe levels --never more than about 45 per cent of your take-home pay .m ACE HARDWARE A Representative from ORTHO will be at ACE HARDWARE SAT., JUNE 9 From 10 AM-2 PM To answer any lawn & garden questions yon may have!
