"These rate revisions will have no impact on monthly service - rates for GTI residential customers," Gall said "We are proposing to update and simplify some of our business rates and in­ stallation charges." Farm Facility Loan Maximum Is Increased Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland has an­ nounced that the amount a farmer may borrow under the Farm Storage Facility Loan program has been increased from $50,000 to $100,000. The loan increase is being authorized to reflect higher costs of construction and materials, Bergland said. Under this program, loans are offered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation service to help farmers buy, build or remodel on-farm storage facilities and to obtain needed drying and handling equipment The maximum loan is 85 percent of the cost of the structures and equipment. Under the new maximum, the aggregate outstanding loan balance maximum is also increased to $100,000, Bergland said. A minimum down payment of 15 percent of the cost must be paid in cash by the farmer before the loan is disbursed. Loan repayment terms allow for a maximum of seven equal annual in­ stallments over a period of eight years. Pre-payment may be made at any time without penalty. Farmers must apply for loans at their county ASCS oltice within 30 days of the time the items to be financed are delivered to the farm. The higher loan amounts are available on applications filed beginning today. No change is being made in the current method of determining storage needs or in the loan levels requiring Agricultural Stabilization State com­ mittee approval or real estate lien. Farmers have built ap­ proximately 4.2 billion bushels of storage under the Farm Storage Facility Loan program since the program began in 1949. About 43 percent of this construction has occurred since April, 1977, when Bergland authorized major program changes. T h e M c H e n r y Beautification committee headed by Liz Nolan and Fran Olsen, have noted the pride and artistic flair demonstrated by McHenry s citizens in the growing number of window boxes, flower gardens, and neatly weeded lawns and gardens throughout the community. The Chamber of Commerce office has added charming window boxes of geraniums; there is a regal new evergreen on the corner of Elm and Front streets; and public areas have been beautified with a variety of Spring and Summer flowers and plants. Tended faithfully by McHenry's Girl Scout troops, these public areas provide refreshing bursts of color and fragrance, but there's much more work to be done to make the town as green and growing as it could be, committee members add. With the Fiesta day celebrations in progress, the committee hopes citizens work at building civic pride by weeding gardens, sprucing up exteriors of homes, and reminding family members to use public trash receptacles while attending the various events, so lhat litter does not blight this mid-Summer holiday. Members urge the public to start now to plan the bulbs to be planted next Spring, the extra little touches around the house that demonstrate a proud member of the community.

A member of the U.S. Army reserve for over 11 years, Capt/ Moore is responsible for the operations and training of the 2-338 regiment of the 85th d i v i s i o n ( t r a i n i n g ) , headquartered in Chicago. His wife, Anne, and their three children, Kevin. Brian and Suzanne, proudly watched the ceremonies in Waukegan -- I'm sure everyone had a great holiday weekend over the fourth of July; at least I hope they did. Three days off from work to do nothing around the house but relax and be with the family, or visit relatives and friends, not to mention watching the fireworks displays around the area, was really a nice change of pace. It was a nice warm weekend, sunny and hot at times, making the ice makers and liquor and soda m a n u f a c t u r e r s w o r k overtime to keep everyone supplied. Certainly many family trips were taken to wherever, and much of the above was consumed. And just like I mentioned last week, some of us became one of the statistics that we read about the following Monday morning. Many of the accidents, I think, can be related to the over- consumption of alcohol and driving the family machine. It is frightening to me, what the percentage is of accidents that had alcohol as a casual effect. Drinking to excess and driving has grown, in my opinion, to epidemic proportions. Ob­ viously, the state of Illinois also realizes this, as the stale has made the presumptive level of in­ toxication to be .10 per cent content by weight of blood. In other words, depending on your weight, as little as three mixed drinks could make you loo drunk to drive legally in ihe state of Illinois. I can hear some out there already saying that 'three drinks isn't going lo make me feel drunk', and you are probably right, for you. However, the state doesn't agree with you. Three drinks isn't much, but it's enough for the state, and the police if you're caught. Everyone has read at one time or another, of a tragic accident where someone was either hurt seriously or killed, or killed someone else lhat they hit, whether the other person was walking or in a vehicle, after they supposedly stopped off for one for the road, and ended up drinking to every linear foot of route 66! Then they get into their cars and try to make it home in one piece. When we stop them, after they have driven off the roadway once or twice, or crossed ihe center line like it Public Relations Officer McHenry City Police Phone 385-2131 was an obstacle course, they are annoyed that we'd dare stop them. When you ask him, or her, (since drunk driving is not solely a man's problem,) for a driver's license, and try and explain what they did, sometimes four or five times, they don't believe you, and they think that they have everything under control. While trying to honor our request for the driver's license, sometimes they can't find their back pocket to get the wallet, and ihey then can't find the license, or pass it by, looking at everything else in the wallet. Sometimes they can't remember their name, address, phone number, where they're been, where they're going, or where they are right now, all the while leaning up against the car for support because they can't stand up in one place, and professing that they're OK. That's the nice guy who's not swearing at you or trying to fight you and any otheKunseen foes, or worse yet trying to find the ignition to just drive away and leave you standing in his dust. Hopefully, all these problems are happening to SEE . . . THE ONLY CONDITIONER THAT REQUIRES NO ELECTRICITY WATER CONDITMNIM (DIV.

Of course, if an accident had happened, and the driver is too hurt to talk and needs medical attention, the giveaway is the fact lhat his car, or what's left of it smells like the inside of a beer can just emptied. However, like I said before, after the ac­ cident is too late. All the old axioms, such as drinking and driving don't mix, friends don't let friends drive drunk; or not for me, I'm driving; don't mean a thing or help anything unless you pay attention and follow them. Apparently those who drink and drive have little respect for themselves and others, let alone some old axiom lhat a public safety ad man once thought up. The only way to at least slow the problem is to en­ force laws already on the books against Driving While Intoxicated, and I'm proud to say that your Police department is doing just that. Please try and have a little more control, and as I said before, a little self respect. Believe me, if the police, any police, arrest you for Driving While Intoxicated, the party is definitely over. Brass Exhibit At Opera House 385-3093 307 CHAPEL ML MAI MdDRY.U. An exhibit entitled "Monumental Brasses of England" is now on display at the Woodstock Opera House. Free to the public, the exhibit is on loan from the Illinois Arts council and the National Endowment for the Arts. s;r- -*The erfhibit was prepared by Mark Horowitz and consists of 24 rubbings of major English brasses found decorating churches and tombs. The rubbings trace the evolution of costume and armor through the 14th, 15th and 16th centuries. The life of the individual represented in each rubbing has been researched from original documents and is described next to each art­ work. Monumental brasses are carved tomb effigies that were a traditional form of decoration to honor the dead in pre-Reformation Europe. Created by armofers, the images were engraved on brass sheets of up to one-inch thickness, and countersunk into the church's marble wall, floor, or altar where the subject was interred. To create a rubbing, heavy rag paper is placed over the brass image and a "heelball" consisting of wax and black pigment is rubbed over the surface. The result is a simple, low-relief image. Following a tour of Illinois, this exhibit will make a national tour sponsored by t h e I n t e r n a t i o n a l Exhibitions Foundation of Washington, D.C. Through Aug. 2, the monumental brass exhibit is open every day, noon until 5:30 p.m. and during all performances of Spokesong, which is having its mid- w e s t e r n p r o f e s s i o n a l premiere at the Opera House.
