SAFEGUARD YOUR HEALTH A PUBLIC SERVICE OF THE ILLINOIS STATE MEDICAL SOCIETY INFLUENZA OUTBREAK AGAIN THIS WINTER Don't put off that flu shot any longer. Another epidemic of influenza is expected to hit this winter and--unless you're immunized-- you may suffer needlessly. Immunization is expecially important for expectant mothers, persons over 45^sufferers of chronic "heart, lung and kidney ailments, and those who live in close quarters (nursing homes and dormitories). These are the most susceptible groups. If you have been immunized since July, 1963, you'll only need a booster dose this year. If you haven't been immunized since then, you will need two shots, ideally before January. Thanksgiving Dinner C ALI, for Reservations 385-9892 A1 s While House 2028 W. Rte. 120 Don t Forget Nickel Night November 29th The new bivalent vaccine should offer even greater protection against current strains of influenza than previously has been possible. What if, despite all yourprecautions, you still fall victim to the flu? How do you recognize it? How do you treat it? Flu is usually characterized by sudden chills, fever, headache, muscular pains, sore throat, dry cough, and nasal obstruction. If it appears to be a serious case, seek prompt and medical attention. If these symptons appear only in a mild form, however, these tips might prove helpful during the recovery period: •Rest in bed •Drink plenty of water and fruit juices •Eat lightly •Maintain body heat, especially during the sweating period. If your temperature continues to rise or other symptoms become severe, medical attention should be sought immediately to avoid serious complications. There are dangers of infection in the bronchial tubes and lungs from the flu and these complications can make you susceptible to pneumonia.

Berry Request On Property to Be Acted Upont Written Protest Makes 3/4 Vote Of Board Necessary The county board of supervisors, at its Nov. 14 meeting will have a rather important decision to make. The zoning board of appeals chairmaned by Joseph Crabb, previously recommended the granting of a variation petition for Peter M. Perry on 160 acres of property in Greenwood township. The variation on the F-Farming zonedprcperty was requested in order to operate a camping trailer site. There also was a request for a B-2 reclassification on a 150-square fart plot far the operation of a tavern. The zoning /board held over the decision fan the B-2 request and subsequently has recommended chat it be denied* This will be presented to the supervisors next week. At its October meeting, the county board referred the recommendation cm the petition to the zoning committee and asked that the McHenry County Planning commission also consider the matter. Crabb met with the zoning committee and explained reasoning behind the recommendation of his board. He said that as the property is presently zoned, picnicking could still take place as the county zoning ordinance, in its present form, allows "picnic grounds and recreational camps, but not including permanent business facilities." There is no further definition of recreational camps. ••BEST SUITED" Therefore, according to Crabb, the zoning board felt that the variation request on the property, which included the newly enacted camp ground design rules, was the best suited. Russell Beard, Greenwood township supervisor, was also present during discussions on the matter with the zoning committee. He commended the zoning board of appeals for its actions and thoughts on the Berryland case. Beard also questioned whether the land or a person was being zoned and stated that based cm the facts present he felt the board would have to go along with the zoning boards John Quay, professional planner for the McHenry County Planning committee, presented to the zoning committee information obtained through the State of Illinois Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation Service.

He also pointed out that the club had teen operated as a private club and the boundary between what the private club can do and what a public camping ground is restricted to is a broad area. He showed maps prepared from state information. One showed that the area in question is not the best suited for camping as it,, is too wet in some areas and too dry in others. USES SITED According to the information from the state, it is best suited for wildlife, primarily the water type wildlife. Also according to the information from the state, the property is best suited for large lot development, such as threeacre estates. Surrounding properties, according to testimony given in the public hearing, is large lot estate. The zoning committee, after hearing the zoning board's reasons for its recommendation, and considering the information from the Planning commission, is of the opinion that the zoning board of appeals decision should be upheld. This is the report which will be presented the county board for its final action. NOT UNANIMOUS The decision of the comm'ttee was not unanimous however. Robert Olson, Nunda Township is against the upholding of the recommendation. It is his contention that the property should not be zoned for such use. Other members of the committee include, A. Ernest Schroeder, chairman; G. Watson Lowe, vice-chairman; and Howard E. Vogel. There are three extra members who served during the months of August, September and October. They are Ernest L. Foote, Fred W. Otto and Elbert G. Kinsley. The vote of the county board at this point is more important than just a simple majority. A written protest against the proposed amendment has been filed by surrounding property owners. According to the county zoning ordinance: "In case of written protest against any proposed amendment signed and acknowledged by the owners of 20 percent of the frontage proposed to be altered, oi~ by the BEGIN EARLY MAILING OF '68 LICENSES Mailing of 1968 motor vehicle license plates has begun, Secretary of State Paul Powell has announced.
