Joslyn, Woodstock attorney, in a speech before the recent meeting of the newly formed McHenry County Regional Planning commission, stressed the desirability of preserving open space in the county through the establishment of ft county forest preserve district. Joslyn, who represents McHenry county on the Northeastern Illinois Metropolitan Area Planning commission and service as vice-president of that organization, cited rapidly increasing urbanization as the compelling reason for creating a forest preserve district in McHenry county. Joslyn also described the cooperative county - metropolitan planning relationship, noting that the County Planning commission could benefit from much of the work which the Metropolitan Planning commission lias previously done. In its formative stage, Joslyn pointed out, the County Planning commission should be concerned with setting realistic goals, and working toward them. The McHenry County Regional Planning commission was established, under state enabling legislation by the McHenry county board of supervisors on Dec. 10, 1963, and Iras been meeting monthly since. The commission has the power to propose a plan"...for the general purpose of guiding and accomplishing a coordinated, adjusted and harmonious development..." of the county.

BOUQUETS TO YOUTH "Dear Editor: "This letter is really intended for Sister Alberta Maria's students at Marian high. In an age when many consider it corny to be proud of your flag and country; when politics and many who engage actively in it are viewed as "some kind of nut"; you young people are a much needed and much appreciated boost, for us--who fit the above description. "A great man once said, 'The price of freedom is eternal vigilance'. The accuracy of that Statement is indisputable. "If we shirk the duties of citizenship, and are content to allow others to make decisions for us, we are no longer free. "When a candidate asks for your vote in any election, in effect, he asks for the job of guardian of your liberty. I'm sure none of us would casually and t rustingiy permit guidance of our family future without careful thought and investigation. It therefore is vital that we are extremely jealous of our election day X, for the people we elect decide the course of our collective family futures!! "How often have you heard comments like:'What's in it for me, if I get involved in politics?' --or 'All politicians are crooks' and ad infinitum. Quite obviously, if a politicain is a crook, we put him there--either by voting for him (without knowledge of his background and capabilities); or we didn't vote at all-- And so he won by default. Our X's make our politicians and our government. They can be good or bad; the decision and the responsibility is ours; and no one else's! "Our Constitution was writ-* ten to guard our liberty and to protect a free people from the dictates of a powerful central government. The Constitution was intended to insure us aj government by law; not govern-! ment by men. „ "Learn about your country and government, attend lectrues, ask questions. Our future is in your hands. "You made us very proud by. your attendance at the recent; meeting explaining political' party structure. You were wonderful representatives of your families, your school and your communities. If we can be of help to you in any way, please permit jjs the pleasure of doing so. Mrs. Thomas R. Davis, "President, McHenry "Township Republican "Women's Club."
