EILEEN RABELHOFER PAGE 18 - PLAINDEALER -FRIDAY. GOVERNMENT APARTMENT COMPLEX COMPLETION DUE (Continued from 1) offs are a primary inducement to prospective investors. The Section 8 protest has hit hard in Crystal Lake, where the West Shores Homeowners' association hs mounted a petition drive to garner signatures in protest of the subsidized raits and the built-in tax shelters for the in vestors. Rents at Briarwood West and the Villager, senior citizens housing center, are $794 for one bedroom, $836 for two and $002 for three. Association members are opposed to taxpayers' money being used to subsidize rents that are substantially higher than other housing. In the Washington legislative arena, the Section 8 program is on its way out. But, the movement to scrap the program is slow, at best. Ms. Messer commented that the legislation, when it was passed in 1974, did not anticipate the drastic in creases in construction costs and interest rates in more recent years. The money for these developments was available at lower than market rates; however, in comparison to pre- 1974 interest and inflation rates, it was still very high. IHDA said the unanticipated cost of the Section 8 program was the reason for its demise. No new projects are on tap, but existing programs will be funded through the term of contract, according to IHDA officials. M U S I N ' A N D M E A N D E R I N ' (Continued from page 1) although one would wonder if this was necessary. Of course, it was Amish country, and suddenly we travelled in the space of no more than 300 feet from the modern freeway to a way of living most of us haven't known in our lifetime. A highway exit sign, with camera in hand, were wishes that went unrealized. A side trip took us to the bluffs of Wisconsin and a homestead that had probably changed little from the time it replaced a log cabin in the year 1905. The landlord was a man well past % who strode with ease over the uneven ground - ground he had walked upon since a toddler. And the winding gravel road, with hairpin turns, was one he travelled at the wheel of his car until a year ago. Life moves a bit slower not too far from McHenry. While the quick pace of our area is so instilled in most of us wte could not leave it permanently, a few days away prove refreshing. There are problems, to be sure, everywhere but they are often not as intense, and their immediate solution is often not of great concern. This came to mind in talking to a caller in our office on our return., The problem was in regard to the abuse of handicapped parking spaces and the stickers themselves. Signs JUNE 17,1883 were not present in the smaller towns we visited.' Last Monday morning a blind McHenry resident was riding in a van with a paraplegic, also from McHenry. They pulled into the paging lot of a supermarket, but just ahead was a lady who parked in the handicapped space.Since there^was a sticker oh tne window,Ibey assumed she, too, was handicapped. Instead, the woman opened the door and ran into the store, leaving the drive- of the van to park eSewhere, taking up two spaces, Abuse of parking places is a well known fact, and it would seem that abuse of the stickers is also becoming a real problem. When the victims are the blind and the paraplegic, it points up the seriousness of the abuses.

THE FOX'S Facts: A New Fluoride One thing that can be said for fluoride it that if a little is good for you, a little more can be even bet ter. There are three popular methods of getting fluorido to the teeth, and now two more have been added. x Most Americans get their fluoride by brushing with toothpase which contains it (about 80% of all toothooste sales.) About hoW of all American drinking water is fluoridated, and a smaller number of us have fluoride applicatons at the dental office. According to experts any one of these methods will reduce decay. Using any two will cut cavities still further, and using all three will provide op- timinal protection in most cases. However, many people live in rural areas or small towns where sufficient fluoride is lacking in their water supplies. Also, children (and adults) do not do a consistently good job of cleaning their teeth. So now we have available fluoride rinses to be used doily at home When the individual situation calls for more protection. Tha fifth method is a chewable tablet currently being tested with dramatic results. All children In our practices are encouraged to regularly apply fluorkfes in the office, and whenever indicated we will also recommend ad-, ditlon of the rinse now that it is readily available and proven effective.
