WATER POLLUTIO N Water pollution requires constant surveillance of streams, as well as attention to the growing demands of an increasing population, Dr. Franklin D. Yoder, director of the Illinois Department of Public Health said last week. A tofai of 5G0 llinois municipalities now have comprehensive sewer systems that serve a population of 7:7 million. New municipal sewage treatment works havo increased by 66 sine1; 1960. Small communities have installed sewer systems in older to collect larger amounts o! waste resulting from increased water usage accompanying installations of modern home appliances.

Easter Message By MARIE SCHAETTGEN (Editors Note: Through the years, Marie Schaettgen has not only contributed frequently to the homemakers page of the Plaindealer, but on several occasions has also been the author of inspirational messages. The one which appears below was written prior to Easter Sunday in 1949. Fifteen years later its meaning is just as true and as moving as when it was first written.) Easter is the Festival commemorating the Resurrection of CHRIST. Easter is a symphony of Angels rejoicing in the Resurrection -- a symphony of Angels proclaiming the revival of life in all the Universe. Easter is a symphony of color, with green as the dominant note. That first Easter restored hope at a time when all human htipe had turned to despair, a time when God appeared to have forgotten His children. When the sufferings of Jesus teemed in vain; when the Great Cause seemed lost Christ arose. What glorious rejoicing there was! What return of hope and revival of faith1 Right had triumphed -- goodness had won. Christ had arisen! God had again given a sign of his Supremacy. In the twenty centuries since the Resurrection of Christ humanity has lots its way many times but has always stumbled back to the right road. Stumbled back through the Dark Ages, through Religious wars, through wars of hatred and greed, back to the road that winds ever upward and onward toward a better life, toward a life of everlasting peace and contentment. Nature helps you to believe in this Eternal striving for immortality. Nature helps us to believe in the Resurrection of all things. Does not a tree in your garden return to life with the coming of warn sunshine and the blessed rains of Spring? Does not the little bird in that tree build a nest and prepare to create a new life? Does not all of nature participate in this wonderful, miraculous Resifrrection year after year? Does anyone doubt that this has always been so and will continue to be so forever, in a world without end? It seems a simple pattern -- this pattern set by God- A pattern of birth, life with its struggles, life with its joys and griefs and then the welcome oblivion of deep sleep, then -- the Resurrection! - This patterns gives meaning to life. It makes our efforts worthwhile. It lightens our burdens. It gives us hope. It gives us faith. Without this belief in God and :n eternal life we may as well be stones lying inert on a lonely shore while the waters of life wash over us forever. Easter is the time to renew our faith. Easter is the time when our hope is reborn. '«E aster Message "Let your Courtesy so shine before men, that whosoever believeth in Caution, Courtesy and Consideration, shall not perish by the reckless driver, but shall have everlasting safety on our roads! "Motorists, my life is in YOUR hands. I wish to have a long and happy life so that I may live to raise my children to adulthood; that I may lend a helping hand to others less fortunate than I; that my mate and I may live our Golden Years together. "Will you, the driver give me my desire? Will you drive with Courtesy, Caution and Consideration? Will you be careful of our children who might stray into our streets; will you be thoughtful of our senior citizens who may not cross streets as rapidly as you think they should; will you allow me and all others to live today and tomorrow in safety and peace? "This is a heavy responsibility we throw upon you. But only you and your desire and Courage to be the safe driver can insure all people's safety upon our highways." This is the message of the Courtesy Car club, through its Chapter 117 of the McHenry Community high school. March Important Month For 4-H Organization In County March has always been one of the important months of the year for the 4-H organization -- a time when clubs throughout the county portray, through window displays, a theme to carry out their high goals. Belonging to a 4-H club may be one of the most rewarding and enjoyable experiences a young person can have. It is open to any boy or girl between 10 and 21 who wants to "learn by doing." Membership in 4-H develops skills and increases knowledge. Each member carries at least one project related to agriculture or homemaking and many of these can be of interest to those living in cities as well as rural residents. The 4-H program helps train for citizenship and places high among its ideals, service to the community. Poise and self confidence are also gained through the opportunity to exhibit projects, demonstrate skills, andi work with others. The organization also offers recognition, since those who meet successfully club requirements receive achievement ratings. For many years, 4-H has served youth of the McHenry and the county. There are many services still to be given those with a desire to learn. NEW SERVICE OFFICER The Administrator of the Illinois Veterans' commission, Edward B.
