MINOR CRASHES INVESTIGATED BY McHENRY POLICE Minor accidents were handled by City Police in recent days. A car driven by Marie F. Espey of 1410 N. Richmond road, McHenry, was standing in a line of autos at Elm and Front streets when another auto driven by Gerald A. Magers of 1323 Riverside drive, McHenry, attempted to go around the right side, coming in contact with the other vehicle. Robert W. Froehlig of Wheeling told police he was travelling north on the Crystal Lake blacktop when the auto of Hans Flach of 919 Front street, McHenry, turned off Rt. 120 into his lane. Froehlig said he swerved but was unable to avoid striking the other car. Nobody ~ is wholly tolerant.*" The mors you believe in tolerance, the less you can tolerate the intolerant.

At a time when serious differences of opinions exist, the urge to magnify the incorrect thinking of the opposing view sometimes becomes too great to resist. From an impartial viewpoint, we cannot help but recognize the sincerity we feel exists on both sides. Our board of education has spent countless hours, without compensation, in planning what we are sure they believe to be the best, orderly system of progress. Perhaps their enthusiasm has prompted them to make progress too quickly for a taxpaying public which often feels compelled, when it can, to reduce the pace of a world moving very quickly in every area. Their vote against the bond issue, we believe, was not intended in opposition to better education. We believe there was complete honesty in presenting the issues at stake in Saturday's referendum. In fact, there is a strong possibility that a repeated reference to $2,000,000 -- a figure too high for most of us to envision -- eventually reached the voting public for the large amount of money it is -- and hurt a favorable vote. In view of the great amount of publicity which surrounded the unsuccessful referendum, it may be timely to reflect on the fact that such Interest as that associated with the bond issue is as old as our country itself. Throughout the history of our United States, one of the first concerns faced by the pioneers was providing education for young people. As each new area became settled, adults began the task of finding someone capable of providing at least the rudiments of education. But the years have produced the same great changes in education that have characterized every phase of American life. In pioneer days, public education meant only the three R's for it was necessary to count, read one's name and read the Bible and occasional mail. The remainder of education had to be learned from personal experience. Such fine arts offerings of the modern school were relegated to a spot of little emphasis. The dramatic differences of the school room of yesterdayeven as recently as twenty-five years ago -- and today are pointed up in the exposure this year of 1968 to increased fields of learning not then in the dreaming stage. Certainly today education is the biggest business in the community. From the standpoint of dollars and cents alone it is responsible for the largest expenditure in the value of buildings, equipment and salaries payroll. The tajqpaying public which keeps the schools in business has a right to be able to express pride in the product produced. Through the quality of education provided, the basis of tomorrow's society has its start. All of us must be in agreement on one point -- the res- Don't Itch, Itch, Itch Get Moore's Skin Conditioner 2 oz. Tester „ _ Exclusively at . . NYE DRUG 1325 N.

The McHenry supervisor has been one of the minority (Mi the county board who has consistently shown himself in favor of the Annex site, believing it to be most economical. Supervisor of Assessments Stanley Cornue was questioned regarding valuation changes made by him after receiving assessors' books. He said the explanation was long and technical in all cases, and advised that he would be glad to make explanations in detail if supervisors visited his office. Assistant Supervisor Edward Buss of McHenry questioned John Quay, who works with the Plan commission, concerning his work for City X on future planning. Woodstock's city manager stepped up to admit that City X was Woodstock and said the county furnished only office space, paper and pencils for Quay during the time he has been assisting the city. SALARY QUESTIONED Buss continued his questioning and asked Quay who paid his salary during this period and the latter responded by stating two-thirds was by the city and one-third by the county. The November sales tax for the county was announced $17,- 609.12. A report of the zoning committee told of a visit by Lou Pitzen in reference to a piece of land which he would like to divide into two parcels, with a need to be serviced by an easement. After much discussion, the committee asked Mr. Pitzen to return to receive an explanation of their views on the matter. The County Dog Tax fund annual report revealed a total of $9,733.27 in the fund. Of this amount, $3,000 will remain, and according to law the remainder must be assigned to other funds. A total of $3,366. 63 will be placed In the Rabies fund and the same in the General fund. Supervisor Ward explained his opinion that if a township receives no state aid, the law regarding no residence requirement for assistance does not apply. Since McHenry receives only aid for the Vally Hi nursing home, the opinion was that a person would need to reside in the county six months to receive aid. The McHenry County Health department report, by townships, lists McHenry receiving 247 visits in January compared to the second highest, 103, in Algonquin. ponsibility that we, as adults, should provide and the responsibility of the young in taking advantage of what is offered. In spite of Saturday's unsuccessful bond issue, we are not convinced that educational progress will not have an important part In McHenry's future. There is no doubt that additional classrooms are needed immediately. Perhaps a bit slower progress on other changes in our school system would make for a better climate of cooperation between school officials and the general public. K.A.F.
