Family Planning Course Begins Sunday At Church In a 70-year lifetime, the average person eats 880 chickens, 12 sheep, 770 pounds of fish and 35 turkeys. Motorists Share For Road Repair Decreases Natural Family Planning will be taught at St. Patrick cliurch, McHenry, beginning Sunday, Sept. 26, at 2:30 p.m. Mitchell and Darlene Considine, teachers from the Couple to Couple League, will explain the Sympto-termal method and its usefulness to couples wishing to prevent pregnancy as . well as to couples who want to conceive. The Considines stress that natural family planning is morally acceptable to all major religions, and that many people choose it for this reason. With the sympto-thermal method, several fertility signs are observed. It is an improvement over the tem­ perature-only and the mucus-only methods, and it assumes that every woman has irregular cycles. To pre-register or for further in­ formation on the course, which consists of evening sessions held once a month for four months, call (815) 385-0025. The class cost depends on the number of optional textbooks a couple chooses to buy. The Considines are also available to speak to doctors, nurses, clergy and marriage preparation groups as well as other interested groups.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15,1982 SK1NFORMATI6N The energy crisis has brought back a medical problem that went out of style years ago. More and more people today are depending on wood stoves and fireplaces as alternate energy sources. According to Dr. Robert W. Goltz, president of the American Academy of Dermatology, dermatologists are seeing more of what used to be called "hot water bottle rash" - called this when it was common to use a hot water bottle to warm a cold bed. This damage is far more serious than a mere reddening of tissues. When bare skin is exposed to intense direct heat, it damages the elastic tissues. It creates an unsightly brown fishnet pattern on the skin, and often takes years to fade away. In some cases, dermatologists have found the heat-induced damage to be pre­ cancerous. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." If you use this type of alternate heating, you should be aware of the potential danger and make a point of keeping areas of bare skin a safe distance from direct heat. The average Illinois motorist Is paying less today in road repair taxes than he did in 1972. According to in­ formation released by the Illinois Tran- s p o r t a t i o n I m - "fsro^ement council, a Sprirtgfield-based coalitioh of commercial, farm, and manufac­ turing organizations, automobile-related user taxes and fees paid by. the average Illinois m o t o r i s t h a v e decreased $10 since ' 1972. During that same period of time, con­ sumer prices rose 59.3 • percent. Tim Hennessey, president of the council, said, "The drop in the average motorist's tax burden is attributable to better automoBile fuel economy and road repair taxes and fees that are not in- flationary'sensitive. The resultant revenue losses are directly responsible for the poor condition of our state's road and bridge net­ work. Neither the gas tax nor registration fees has risen since 1969. Since that time, the Illinois Construction Price Index has risen 153 percent. Illinois simply can't afford to continue deferring needed repair, resur­ facing, and recon- t struction of its road and bridges." The study shows that in 1972, the operator of a Chevrolet Impala, driven 10,000 miles annually, contributed a total of $129 in registration fees, motor fuel, and sales taxes. His 1982 counterpart, driving the same distance, paid only $119 annually in taxes and fees. During that same 10-year period, the average retail price of a new Chevrolet Impala rose from $3,700 in 1972 to $9,400 in 1982, an increase of $5,700 or 154 percent! Hennessey continued, "Further compounding the problem is that the only portion of auto- related taxes that in­ creased during the past 10 years was the sales tax paid on gasoline - and only about 50 percent of that goes to fix Illinois' road and bridge system. The average annual driver cost for registration fees and motor fuel taxes went from $116 in 1972 to $87 in 1982. These are the only portions of the motorist's tax bill dedicated wholely to road^tystem upkeep. " A l t h o u g h t h e motorist's tax bills decreased $10, this savings was lost on increased auto main­ tenance, decreased fuel economy, and higher accident rates resulting from deteriorating road c o n d i t i o n s . T h e s e bargain-rate auto taxes are easily lost on the cost of new shocks, tire?, or an accident caused by deteriorating roads."
