Most of us have never been on speaking terms with a groundhog, but animal experts tell us he is shy, amiable and a vegetarian. ,T h e latter probably accounts for the fact that we- Americans took up .with this particular little fellow to do our predicting. * Legends about animals and their predictions of the weather go back to the days of the Egyptians, who seem to be the origin for almost everything. They swore by the actions of the bears, but the big, burly animal failed to capture the imagination of the general public since few people liked the? idea of hanging around to see if a hungry bear would come forth to see his shadow. This probably prompted us to adopt woodchucks as our unofficial forecaster. jnst one little groondhog is really quite a remaFfeabl® character, for at full ote® of 24 Inches he takes over $»e duties of several thousand weatlse? toucan employees ud doesn't charge as a cent.

April Referendum The April 4 community mental health referendum and ways to raise funds for the current aid l£S7-£§ budget are among major topics before the board at its first meeting under the new officers. At the annual meeting, Calvin Skinner, Sr. suggested that the Mental Health center apply to the Crystal Lake United Fund to come under its fund-raising activities in 1968. Any funds raised through the referendum would not be available for many months. The referendum, unanimously approved by the McHenry county board of supervisors, will be voted on in conjunction with the township elections. May, who has worked closely with the board of supervisors in seeking ways to expand care for the mentally ill ami mentally retarded, revievyail how tax daOaro would be managed under the proposal: 1. Tlie board of supervisors would appoint a seven-member Community Mental Health boassfl. 2. All requests for funds by Mental Health agencies would go to this board. 3. The board would review the proposed budget and recommend to the board of supervisors the amount to be levied. 4. The board of supervisors would review the Community Mental Health board recommendation and have the final decision on the amount to be levied. Yearly Income At the annual meeting, it was reported that income for the past year was $67,000 Seventy per cent came from the State of Illinois Department of Mental Health; 30 per cent was from patient income and contributions. Expenses totaled slightly over $69,000. A woman's auxiliary formed during the past year had several excellent projects and raised 5859 in contributions to the Mental Health center. Mrs. Gibson Kurtz, president, reported the organization has <435 members. George Mally, administrator, said that while the Mental Health center has a patient waiting list of 100 county citizens, he and his staff are continuing to aid emergency cases promptly. However, the center has more than 350 active cases now. He said 2,660 individual and group interviews were conducted last year, involving 563 patients. LeRoy Marks, past president of the Northwest Cooperative Mental Health asso-,j ciation which operates a clinic at Arlington Heights, took part in a panel discussion at the annual meeting. His observations included the report that the Arlington Heights clinic is financed 40 per cent by township funds, 40 per cent by state funds and 20 per cent by fees and donations. One village in the area has approved a mental health referendum. Allow Appropriations Marks stressed that townships are permitted to use general funds to help support a mental Q health clinic and make direct appropriations. Skinner, who was a member of the panel, answered a question about the November referendum by saying one possible reason for its failure was that the maximum rate allowed by law was requested rather than an amount which was nearer the projected budget. Skinner added that more support came when it was announced that one-fourth of the maximum rate would be requested by the two organizations most deeply involved in the care of the mentally ill and retarded. etary gifts 5o help support Christian interdenominational colleges and literature and literacy programs in many countries abroad and to support national projects such as educational, recreational, and chiid-care help migrant workers and services to Indian youth.
