They fail to realize that a youth's bad driving record can be a reflection on their bad driving habits. An observing child knows what the speed limit is, and when he sees a parent or guardian exceeding the limit, the apparent lack of concern for the law is remembered for a long time. Any parent who runs stop signs or races through in­ tersections when the amber light is on has failed in his obligation to show his youngster the value of following the rules of the road. Traffic laws, signs and signals must be observed. Parents should realize that the few seconds or minutes they might gain by speeding or cheating at intersections may some day result in the serious injury or death of their teenagers because they may have copied their parents' bad driving habits This should be a sobering thought for all parents. Please set a good example for your children behind the wheel. (A copy of the Rules ofj the Road will be sent to vou upon request. Write to i J Dixon, Secretary oi late, Springfield, 111., 62756.) Chop Raiains A quick way to chop raisins is to freeze them first and then twirl •hem for a few minutes in your blender. Frozen raisins will not gum up in the blender. However, do only half cup at a time and remove from the blender immedia­ tely. Every bicycle fider should realize that his bike is a moving vehicle! and, like any vehicle that moves, must be Maintained properly. The rewards of good bicycle maintenance are that the bike will per­ form well and add to the rider's enjoyment, and will give him or her a sense of pride in a fine looking and efficient bicycle. Good maintenance starts with the professional bicycle dealer, according to the National Bicycle Dealers a s s o c i a t i o n . T h e professional assembles a bike when it is purchased and services it after it is sold. So, a customer is off to a good start when he or she buys a bike from a professional dealer, knowing that it is properly assembled for safe and pleasant riding. It is wise to let the professional bicycle dealer inspect a bike at least twice a year, according to the NBDA. His professionally- trained mechanics are very well qualified to make any substantial adjustments or major repairs. Still, there are a number of useful procedures that any bike rider can take to help keep the bicycle in good condition: 1. Keep air in tires at correct pressure - which is usually indicated on the sidewalls. 2. Adjust handlebars for comfortable riding. 3. Be sure reflector and headlight are in good working order. 4. Brakes (hand or coaster) must work KnOw{^ alncf Why does high humidity in summer make us uncom­ fortable? The relative humidity (percentage of moisture in the air) has a noticeable ef­ fect on us because the body perspires constantly, the amount depending on activity and other factors. On days when a high pressure system is above us, with its usually dry, cool air, we feel good. The drier air causes rapid evaporation of perspiration, and clothes do not become wet or sticky. In addition, low pressure (which often accompanies high humidity) acts on our blood vessels with what is sometimes a depressing ef­ fect. Thus physically and physiologically high humid­ ity directly affects our comfort. Hemlines of most of the new day-time fashions are a little below the knee. For variety, some calf-length skirts have matching fitted jackets. Blood Pressure Screening Offered At Two Locations Blood pressure screening is available through two local senior citizens' programs sponsored by the McHenry County Senior Citizen's council. .^Scjgening is provided at^ , (N The McHonry Plaindealer 3812 W.

Blood pressure screening is available to everyone, not just senior citizens. The famous Nationwide Demolition derby is coming to McHenry County fair Sunday, Aug. 3, at the grandstand on the fairgrounds. "Gasoline Gladiators" will stage deliberate crashes. Men and women with plenty of nerve and a lust for thrills will compete for the cash prizes and trophies. The participants must supply their own cars. The car must be equipped with a safety seat belt and the driver must wear an ap­ proved crash helmet. When the green flag falls, the race track becomes a highway crowded with crazy "Sunday Drivers". These drivers don't mind wrecking their cars while they are behind the wheel. The cars crash, smash and sometimes roll. The ex­ citement builds until the competition becomes a duel between the two surviving drivers. Then it is a fight to the finish. The checkered flag will denote the winner. With the flag goes the big cash prize. Official rules and entry blanks will be available from the fair secretary and local gas stations. All participants must be over 21 or have a notarized release signed by their parents. Only American-made, hardtop automobiles are eligible. No special bumpers or reinforcements will be permitted. The only ex­ ception are rolls bars around the driver's compartment which will be permitted, but not required. Entry blanks for those interested in participating in this exciting contest can be picked up from the fair office on the Woodstock fairgrounds. All the excitement gets under way at 8 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 3. smoothly and evenly and not slip. They should be adjusted by a professional bicycle dealer. 5. Be sure the horn or bell works properly at all times. 6. The chain should be checked for any damaged links. Clean it regularly and lubricate it with a light oil. The chain should be snug but not too tight. If in doubt, see a professional bicycle dealer. 7. Keep the bike clean. JVipe it with a damp, soft cloth. Use automotive wax to help keep painted and plated parts clean and shiny. 8. Lubricate moving parts. 9. Check the tire valve to be sure it does not leak, and stands straight. 10. Replace worn handle grips. Make sure the new ones fit the handlebars snugly. ** Attention to proper maintenance will provide the bicycle rider with mile after mile of pleasant, relaxed biking.
