Section Two -- Page Four THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER Thursday, July 8, 1965 Rampart College Teaches Its Students To Thinly Freedom--long may it wave-- the Freedom School of Rampart College, that is! For do we have freedom, have we ever really had true freedom? It is a shock--a rude awakening-- a cruel and sickening realization to discover that we never have had what man has been seeking to understand since time began. Or perhaps, in rationalizing, it might lift our hopes for the future that some day man will achieve this long sought for way of life. Dean Robert LeFevre has given thiis hope to the students of his course in Praxeology. Nestled in the foothills of the Rampart range in Colorado, midway between Denver and Colorado Springs, the Rampart College is teaching its students to THINK. It is not decreeing that, things should be this way or that way. It does not teach politics. The school offers for your evaluation what is right and what is wrong; What does freedom mean' to you? Can it be achieved--and if so--how? Dean LeFevre approaches subjects in the manner of what is truth--and what is not. Taking a principle--the student studies and thinks his own way to a conclusion. There is no dogma. LeFevre does not attempt to dogmatize or finalize. How different from other halls of learning--the ivory towers of dogmatic instruction! The student discovers that fact never changes--but opinions and explanations do. He learns the meaning of responsibility and obligation; the difference. The types of money (credit, fiat, and commodity) and wealth (consumer, entrepreneurial, and political) are scrutinized. The true meaning of protection, retaliation, retribution, and defense is analyzed. The basic documents of our time--the Communist Manifesto, the Russian Constitution, our Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of the United States are studied and discussed--what learned men, such as Benjamin Franklin, De Tocqueville, etc., had to say about our Constitution. Besides eight hours of class every day, including Saturday and Sunday, the student is required to do outside reading--and write several papers having such titles as, "The Ideal Relationship Between Government and Economy." "The Importance of Labor Unions and Their Effect on Economy," "How would you go about the task of putting in a coast-to-coast highway without the help of the government," and "Am I Afraid of Freedom." The whole gamut is run from socialism, communism, interventionism, individualism to totalitarianism. The conclusion to each subject, and/or the principle thereof--is^ left to the student. He is the one who weighs and evaluates--as to the truth--the legal and moral principle.

Chocolate Shake With Calypso Beat Go calypso with a chocolate milkshake with a tropical beat. Quick chocolate-flavored mix, the ingredient the youngsters discovered and told the big folks about, is combined with mashed bananas and milk for a cool, cool shake the whole family will enjoy. When the temperature soars and the day turns Caribbean, make up Chocolate Calypso Milkshake early in the morning. Chill a generous supply in the refrigerator for all thirsty comers. It's a nourishing, delightful drink for the kids; a flavor combination sophisticated enough for summer company on porch or patio.

Everyone is welcome to come ort in. for breakfast on July 11. See you there? Oops, I (Joofed I'm sorry if I caused inconvenience to any of the community club members last week. I forgot about the holiday, and stated in last week's column that the regular meeting would be held on July 5. There will be no meeting in July. The next regular meeting will be held on Mondayevening, August 2 at 8:30. Once again I am sorry about the misinformation. Resi-uo Squad Notes On June 29 the squad members were called to a home in Oakland subdivision where a man suffered a possible seizure. He was taken by the squad in the ambulance to the McHenry hospital. I hate to keep harping on the same subject but the squad members say there isn't much being done as yet as to the house numbers being placed in a conspicuous place. This is very important in a time of emergency. Wouldn't you hate to be the one who needed the squad's assistance and they could not find your home because it had no number on it? Please see that your home is numbered now. The same goes for street signs. If there are none in your area see what you can do about getting them put in as soon as possible. Also, parents please be very careful with your outdoor grills. Be certain the youngsters are no where near them while they are still hot. There is nothing so painful as a burn, no matter how small it may be. Avert such things by exerting caution during the entire time your grill is in use. t Granddaughter Hospitalized Please say a little prayer for the very young granddaughter of Gdorge and Olivia Hiller. The nine month old. baby has been confined to a Chicago hospital for several weeks now. She underwent heart surgery and has been recuperating slowly. She is the daughter of Frank and Dorothy Murphy. In Line For Best Wishes Peggy Peterson will observe birthday number 14 on July 11, while Joy Ann Hettermann will turn 14 on July 13. Fifteen is what Ricky Wakitsch will be on July 12. You can bet Bill Martinec will be surrounded by his family on July 13. It's his birthday. This happy month of July finds Warren Smith turning into a teenager. Carol Ann Stilling of St. Colletta's school will be here to celebrate her natal day with her relatives on July 8.
