They're smart. But being smart doesn't mean that one has the experience to use good judgment, and this seems to be the strongest point on the other side especially when one considers the huge segment of the population which would be contributing this lack to the ballot box. Many opinions in opposition to the change have come through observation and experience with young drivers. No one can dispute that the average 18 year and their musical directors include the following: From St. Mary's of McHenry, Sister Mary Andreela O.S.F., Mary Jane Smolzer; from McHenry Junior high, Carl Kohrt, director, Katie Keeney; and from MCHS, John Leighty, director, Annamae Keeney. old knows most rules of the road and can handle a car in a way most of us might envy. But statistics can't be disputed either, and they show that with the youthful attributes of a quick mind and reflexes, another ingredient -- namely youthful exuberance -- becomes an integral part and contributes generously to the mounting traffic toll. When you have so much in your favor and still chalk up a record that is mostly a question of poor judgment there are certainly arguments against allowing voting privileges forthe sake of future support. We hope our leaders have better reasons for promoting a change than the never admitted thought that keeps popping into our mind. It spells out VOTES. K.A.F.

Dogs are usually a great deterrent to thieves but not if the robbers have previously petted your canine or fed it bits of meat. Notice the failure of the two dogs mentioned below when intruders broke into the homes which the dogs were tQ watch. Dogs ( and kiddies) require consistent teaching! By - George W. Crane, Ph. D., M.D. CASE J-525: Grover Ce, is a Hoosier farmer, though much beyond the 65-year-old retirement age. When I was down at our Indiana farm home recently, a tree had crashed across the fence between Grover's land and my Uncle Vick's farm. So Uncle Vick asked me to help him saw the tree in half so it could be pulled off the fence. Grover joined us with his tractor to push the truck. He had a large boxer dog with him. "My son John thinks he is a great watch dog," Grover told us with a laugh. Then Grover said that a few nights earlier, while the dog was chained on the back porch, John was awakened by his wife's scream. For a strange man was standing beside her bed. John jumped up and demanded to know what he was doing there. The intruder said he had been looking all through the house for somebody to help him get his stalled car moving, for his car was in the road directly in front of John's house. "And the intruder," said Grover, "had actually stepped over this big dog on the porch, yet it never barked at all!" But dogs are regarded as a good deterrent for the usual thief. For robbers don't like to have a noisy dog, even though a terrier, giving the alarm to the householders. Here in Chicago a professor and his wife had a big police dog in their apartment to help ward off intruders. 11 But one night the professor was awakened by two robbers who tied him and his wife with neckties. The police dog never barked or growled but even rubbed against the leg of one of the thieves as the robbers ransacked the apartment. The thief world occasionally stop to pat the dog's head and talk to it. After the intruders departed, the professor finally worked his hands free and telephoned the police. They' soon arrived. But the police dog then growled and barked and wouldn't let the police inside the apartment, at least till the professor intervened! So that beautiful big police dog, kept as a foe of thieves, actually played footsie with the robbers and barked at the police! It is very likely that the dog may have known one of the masked robbers, for the latter might have patted his head on several Occasions while its owner had him out for a stroll. By offering such dogs a bit of meat occasionally, many prospective robbers bribe the friendship of such# dog. Specially trained watch dogs such as those rented for use in department stores, are taught not to eat food offered by strangers. "YR" Member Goal Is 200 The McHenry County Young Republican organization held its February meeting at Ray's Chalet in Crystal Lake, when a county-wide membership drive was started. Membership Chairman Wm. Fandre of McHenry announced a goal of 200 active members would be the group* s target. But the usual housholdpet receives no such rigorous training so it would be well for dog owners to keep their pets aloof from outsiders as much as possible. In the farm situation just mentioned, the intruder lived at the next house, so John's boxer may have-visited him often and thus looked upon him as a member of the family. (Always write to Dr. Crane in care of this newspaper, enclosing a long stamped, addressed envelope and 20 cents to cover typing and printing costs when you send for one of his booklets.) Guests at the "YR" meeting were the Township Republicancandidates from Algonquin township. - - Chairman Patrick Sharpe of Cary and McHenry Area President Mike Brown announced plans for a McHenry township candidates night. The special meeting of the " YR" group will be held on March 12 at the American Legion home in McHenry. At this meeting, any interested person will have the chance to meet and question Republican candidates for township offices. Also, as interest in the upcoming State House race is high, Thomas Davis of McHenry will be present for the Candidates' night. Mr. Davis is seeking the seat left vacant by the death of Rep. Jack Hill. • The meeting will close with refreshments and an opportunity to meet the candidates face to face.
