EDITORIAL Economy and Mental Health The small amounts we spend on patient care in most public mental institutions is false economy, according to The Health News Institute. Recent studies clearly indicate that if we spent larger sums on many of our mentally ill, we could be curing them rather than merely keeping them in custody. In general hospitals we spend lie mental institutions the average per day is only $4.07. One result is that mental patients who fail to recover within the first year face a mounting likelihood that they will languish permanently in the back wards, lost, hopeless and forgotten.

Irma Gunther - Reporter When St. John's had their P.T.A. meeting last week it was decided and voted to change the name to St. John's Home and School Association. Father Anger was the speaker and I'm sure every one enjoyed his talk and came away with the reminder that we are still teachers for our children and just because they go to school our teaching does not stop, it continues on. I hope Father Anger can be persuaded to attend all of the meetings and to adresS us again with his informative talks. 4-H Cardinals On Sept.' 25 the girls had their first meeting of a new year at the home of Pam Obstfelder.

McHENRY COUNTY ZONING BOARD OF APPEALS By John E. Looze. Chairman (Pub. Oct. 8, 1959) for more than ten. With individualized care, twenty-six of these long-term patients were able to leave the hospital, and twenty-five of the seventy-two became self-supporting. "Let us say that it would have cost $1,500 a^ear to maintain these patients in the hospital for the rest of their lives," the secreary • suggests, "and that they had an average life expectancy of twenty years. This would amount to a total cost of three quarters of a million dollars."

PEACH CROP The 1959 Illinois peach crop totalled 850,000 bushels, 21 per cent below last year and 26 per cent below the 1948-57 average, according to the Illinois Cooperative Crop Reporting Service. Harvest began in southern counties late in July and was completed near the end of August. Most growers reported excellent size and fine quality but wind and hail damaged the crop in a few orchards. ; Beware Carbon Monoxide Closed windows, lack of proper ventilation and a faulty ' heating plant can be a deadly | combination. With the commencement of cooler weather ! and the heating season, care should be observed in the home to guard against accidental carbon monoxide poisoning, the state Department of Pujplic Health cautioned. In 1958T14 accidental deaths in homes in Illlinois were caused by improper use of utility gas. Carbon monoxide is produced by incomplete combustion. Heating plants should be cleaned and checked annually for safe operation. If gas odor is noticed, ventilate the house and notify the utility company at once. Carbon monoxid^is also produced -b^ faulty coalburning units. it s RENTAL RENTS Floor Sanders t® Rotary Tillers EVergreen 5-4123 WAIJKEGAN FREE ESTIMATES On Alum.
