Our only re* quest is that Writers limit themselves to 300 words or less signature, full address and phone number. We ask, too, that one indi-. vidual not write on the same subject more than once each month. We reserve the right to delete any material which we consider libelous or in objectionable taste.) THE TAX PROBLEM "Dear Editor: "I would like to answer Don Kinsala in regard to the letter printed in the Plaindealer in which he appeals to the public to do more and not to leave it to certain people. He mentions the fact, and well we> know it, of climbing taxes, but his remedy is more frills which would raise them still higher. "The junior college wns not defeated because I here was no need for it but because it was looked upon us anolhor cause for taxation that is becoming too high to bear. When we buy a car if we cannot afford a high priced auto then we purchase one we can afford and with careful driving get the same amount, of pleasure. And this ^oes for any other necessity. Let's out out the frills and get down to what is needed". The unjust personal property tax, for instance, that we are being harrassed with. "Why worry about 1970 or 1980 when a great many of us will not even be around. Let's worry about 1964 or 19(>f5 and you can be sure it will all even out the right way. "In the Constitution of the United States in 1870 there is a fourth amendment which guarantees every citizen against the search and seizure of your property in your home. Are we being protected by our law makers or hounded? This is my contribution and I am willing to talk to anyone on this subject in order to keep the harrassed citizens out of mental institutions -- another expense which we need but can cut down quite a lot. "Mrs. Nettie Sarley "Lakemopr" JOHN KIRBY f ENTERS STATE AUDITOR RACE tm WCHEPlBI rLAIHUtALER ; f j -Tt -w. for JOHN KIRBY "Dear Friends: "It was said long ago --. 'Libraries are not made, they grow.' "In the middle 1930s the McHenry Mothers club began collecting books to start a small lending library. On Feb. 27, 1936, they had enough books to open the library in a spare room at the high school. It was located there until the school needed the room, at which time it was moved to the city hall. "Sensing a need for a building of their own, the library board raised funds by giving concerts, holding ice cream socials, etc. In 1951 they purchased the William Tesch residence, which is the site of the present library. It is of great historical value, as it was the first farm house on Boone creek. "In 1964 we have the responsibility and the opportunity to expand our library with a building program and the purchase of additional books. Through your generosity, the library building fund has grown steadily. But we still need more funds to make the dream of a new, modern library for McHenry come true. "Various individuals and organizations have promised their support. In this effort. Please Interested in STOCKS? STOCK FUND, INC. An open end mutual fund c m p li ti s 111 n g c o m in o n stocks.

Kirby continued, "After discussing , with people throughout Illinois the office I am qualified to fill, and having successfully enlisted the. support of chairmen ahd committeemen of the Republican party, I have decided to seek the nomination as the Republican candidate for the office of Auditor of Public Accounts." He will take a leave of absence as assistant Superintendent of Public Instruction to campaign full time for this post.

I had just started, when a doctor friend of mine threw some of my dieting ideas out the windpw. Briefly, he said: Don't try eating only one or two good foods... it's unhealthy, and. you're always hungry. Protein calories are not used up faster than others. Avoiding salt reduces water, not fat. Dried fruits contain? just as many calories as fresh fruits. Frequently snacks, instead of regular meals, have just as many calories.. .nor does toasting bread reduce calories. Potatoes are not much more fattening than other vegetables--it's the goop we put on them that's murder. And strict fruit-andvegetable diets won't give daily protein requiremants unless you eat tons. What you really need girls is courage--courage to just eat less of everything! DON'T POUND YOUR FINGERS when you hang a picture. Just hold the lack in the leeth of an old comb. Why didn't I think of it! OrEN JARS AND BOTTLETOPS like magic. Simply use the hinge side of a door like a vise to hold the lid, and twist the -bottle. lTsc back door, eldset, or even refrigerator door so d^nt won't show. QUICKIEr To thread needle, push it through sheet of white paper. Eye of needle will be easy to see! With projjer care you/can keep those NEW SHOWER CURTAINS looking bi4^ht and gay up to 4 years. Depending on the type, here's how: Acetate Taffeta - Wash by hand in warm water and mild suds. Don't wring or rub. Hang to dry. If ironing is needed, press while damp with cool iron. A vinyl liner will really help keep acetate looking fresh. Vinyl and Cotton Duck Curtains - Rinse or sponge after each use. Machine wash, hang to dry. Rubber Curtains - Rinse after each use. For thorough cleaning, wash by hand in warm water; hang to dry. Hold it. fellow mothers! DON'T THROW AWAY THAT MTALE CAKE. Just dip it in cold milk for only a second. Then heat in the oven "at medium setting. Watch for Maggie every week! MEDICAL SELF HELP More than 10,000 persons in Illinois h^ve completed the m e d i c a l s e l f - h e l p t r a i n i n g course, Dr. Franklin. D. Yoder, state public health director, has announced. Started early in 1962, the program's goal is to teach one member of each family how to carc for themselves in the event of widespread disaster until medical help is available, perhaps for as long as two week*. This is part of the total civil defense program. In Illinois, the desirable goal will involve teaching about three million persons in the n<*xt three or four years, Dr. Yoder said. CARD OF THANKS I wish to thank all my relatives, friends and neighbors for their cards, flowers and many kind deeds during my recent stay in the hospital.
