PAGE 4 - PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1975 MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued From Page 1) "A journalist is a grumbler, a censurer, a giver of advice, a regent of sovereigns, a tutor of nations. Four hostile newspapers are more to be feared than a thousand bayonets" -- Napoleon Bonaparte. "A free press is the un­ sleeping guardian of every other right that free men prize" - Sir Winston Churchill. "...Even though we never like it, and even if we wish they didn't write it, and evenjf we disapprove, there isn't any doubt that we could not do the job at all in a free society without a very, very active press" -- John F. Kennedy. "A reporter is to a politician what a barking dog is to a chicken thief" -- Mike Royko. But our favorite is probably this quote from Thomas Jef­ ferson, which has stood the test of time: "Were it left to me to decide whether we should have g o v e r n m e n t w i t h o u t newspapers or newspapers without government, 1 should not hesitate for a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them." K.A.F. $70,000 LOSS IN TAVERN FIRE (Continued From Page 1) investigated by county authorities. A short that caused wires to burn on a car owned by R. Sabath resulted in $300 damage. The fire occurred about 4 o'clock Monday af­ ternoon at 3102 W. Rt. 120, and required the services of Company I firemen. The wiring system was damaged on a car belonging to Arthur Erdman of 5411 Memory trail, McHenry, when a fire broke out Sunday night at 7 p.m. Company II firemen were called to the scene. Damage was estimated at $200. Company I answered a call to the home of La Verne McClure, 1502 N. Green street at 10:10 Saturday night when a tran­ sformer burned out in a television set. There was no damage to the building. McHenry Companies I and II were called to assist the Wauconda department last week in bringing a small barn fire under control. Open bur­ ning near the building caused the roof to catch fire. A grass fire back of the Illinois Coil Springs building, Industrial drive, brought firemen to the scene Monday afternoon about 2 o'clock. A grass fire in Peterson Park Sunday afternoon gained such headway that Company I firemen were called to the scene. * * * * A new broom won't sweep clean unless some­ one uses it. THE WASTEWATER PROJECT (Continued From Page 1) argument that effluent would be as clear as claimed. He said the EPA would have to agree with NIPC to meet minimum stan­ dards. The legislator said it would be wasted effort to obtain EPA approval if an act of the Legislature is needed for the project. Hanahan admitted he had been told he is "holding up western Lake county. You have to be a bigger man and look at the interest of a half million people". He said his detractors accused him of holding up construction of shopping centers, developments and private homes. "You wouldn't believe the important people who have come to me", he asserted, even Unions, and that's my business". Hanahan said his answer was, "Are we supposed to become a sewer in McHenry county while you develop"? The outfall, he r e f l e c t e d , b r i n g s greater usage of the sewer plant, and his fear is for the water of the Fox river in case of a malfunction or an act of God.

Environmental Science Classes Aid Recycling Looking Back On Saturday, Oct. 18, the Environmental Science classes of West campus will be doing some practical work on an environmental issue that must be solved by all communities-- that of what to do with much of man's daily trash. They will be working at McHenry's monthly recycling drive at the Market Place parking lot. Many McHenry citizens discovered almost three years ago that by taking the Jtime to prepare newspapers, bottles, and cans and saving them for the monthly recycling drives they were helping themselves, the environment, and the groups working on the drives. The Environmental Science classes have been participating in these drives for over a year now in an important behind- the-scenes way. A few mem­ bers of the class have gone each month to unload the newspapers at the Johns- Manville plant in Waukegan and then have had an op­ portunity to tour the plant to see exactly what happens to all the paper brought in.

McHENRY (815) 385-7747 and cardboard; flattened aluminum, flattened bi-metal, and flattened steel cans with the paper labels removed; and clean, clear, green, and brown glass with all metal and plastic removed, will be received by workers this Saturday from 9 until 5 at the Market Place and moved on to the next step toward recycling. Due to the depressed market for steel, the recycling plants are less interested in bi-metal cans. Bi-metal cans are the pull-top beverage cans that many soft drinks, beer, and some fruit juices comes in. Only the sides and bottoms are steel and the tops are aluminum. Consequently, at the Saturday recycling drives the bi-metal cans must now be separated by the workers from the all-aluminum cans. Because of this and because of lack of space for storage, un- flattened cans of any sort will not be accepted. Anyone having questions please call the McHenry County Defenders, represen­ tative at 385-8512. Hold Open Meeting At Co. / Flrehouse On Tuesday, Oct. 21, there will be an open meeting at the Company one firehouse in Wonder Lake starting at 8 p.m. The special speaker for the evening will be Dorothy Devine from the Family Service and Mental Health Clinic for McHenry County. The topics for the evening will be to summarize the facilities and programs available to the residents of McHenry County. The public is invited to attend what will be a very informative event. Refreshments will be served by the Wonder Lake Volunteer Firemen's Auxiliary spon­ soring the meeting for both Company One and Company Two. Deaths MARGARET HALSTEAD Margaret Halstead, 63, 412 S.

GOLZE Richard F. Golze, 77, 329 Lewis avenue. Wauconda, died LOUISA'S LETTER Dear Louisa, I read some of the letters about people who work out­ side the home and the ones who work at home. They were very interesting and now I would like to hear what some of them think about this problem. I have a neighbor who is what I call an all-out do- gooder. She helps every­ body. If any one is sick she is the first to come, if anyone dies, she is there with food, if anyone needs a child taken care of she carries him home. Now this sounds very Christian like but what happens while she is doing ail these things for other people? This is the situation: her own three children are thrown out of their sched­ ules and are running about over the neighborhood. Her helper is probably at the telephone or watching tele­ vision. She is not home when her husband comes for lunch and he has to forage for himself. Don't you think she would do better to attend to her own family before she looks out for the community? Neigh bo r-N.Y. Oct. 8 in Crystal Pines nursing home, Crystal Lake. He was born June 3, 1898 in Germany. He was a resident of Wauconda for thirteen years. Among his survivors are two daughters, Rita Munroe, Wauconda, and Lorraine Moore, McHenry; seven grandchildren; five great­ grandchildren; one sister in Germany. The body rested at the Island Lake funeral home until Saturday when services were conducted at 1 p.m. by Pastor John O. Mclntyre of Faith P r e s b y t e r i a n c h u r c h , McHenry. Burial was in Irving Park cemetery. Answer: I should like to hear what some of my readers think about this. Perhaps a per­ son who loves to help peo­ ple could do so without go- ingoverboard with the idea. Louisa. Address: Louisa, Box 532 Orangeburg, S.C. 29115. Jane Addams is undoubted­ ly the most famous woman in Illinois history. Born in Cedarville in 1860, the youngest of eight children, she grew up under the com­ peting pressures of a father who inspired his daughter to go beyond the conventional circle of 19th century women's rights and duties and a stepmother who encouraged her to culti­ vate the traditional refine­ ments, graces, and restraints of womanhood. After being graduated from Rockford College and a brief stay terminated by ill health at Women's Medical College in Philadelphia, she made several trips to Europe where she dis­ covered settlement' work. In 1889 she opened Hull House in a remodeled old mansion in the midst of the slums and seething industrial life on the southwest side of Chicago. Her goals were to help as well as to undertand the poor, to publicize their plight, and by so doing to bridge the gap modern industri­ alization had opened between social classes. The revolt against tradition within her own life and her acknowledgment of it increased Jane Addams' ability to understand the rebellion of the children of immigrants, of youth in general, and of ex­ ploited women. Hundreds of them came to Hull House every day for assistance and advice. Miss Addams and a group of remarkably capable women taught classes, served as an employment agency for ihe needy, provided immediate assistance for a myriad of slum-based problems (including the delivery of an occasional baby), and raised money to support their efforts. By 1905 the original re­ modeled mansion was joined by a series of new buildings devoted to working class recre­ ation and education. They in­ cluded an art gallery, a coffee house, a gymnasium, a chil­ dren's building, the Hull House Apartments, a woman's club, a boy's club, a nursery, and a boarding club for working girls. Now a part of the University of Illinois Circle Campus, these facilities once represented the finest plant devoted to settle­ ment activities in the United States. Artists and educators also brought to HuH House a cultural program centered about a music school, a labor museum, and the Hull House players. Her sup.eme practical achievement was to recruit and to hold many able women whose activities went far be­ yond the confines of the settle­ ment house. Among them were Dr. Alice Hamilton, a recog­ nized authority on industrial disease; Florence Kelly, who became the state's first Direc­ tor of Factory Inspection; Julia Lathrop, first Director of the Illinois State Board of Charities and later the first Director of the US Children's Bureau; Edith Abbott, Dean of the School of Social Science Ad­ ministration at the University of Chicago and Superintendent of the League for the Protec­ tion of Immigrants; Sophonis- ba Breckenridge, instrumental in the establishment of the world's first juvenile court in Illinois in 1899 and author of a study of 13,000 juvenile delin­ quents which provided the first real research into that problem; Rnow^ c i A Message to Newspaper Carriers isTHi [ggja and many other prominent re­ formers and humanists. P r a g m a t i c , never self- righteous,, Miss Addams lived an active political life. She campaigned effectively for the abolition of child labor, for factory laws, for the reform of the courts, for temperance, and for woman suffrage. In battles with the political machine, she came to under­ stand the Ward Boss from the perspective of those who voted for him--not as a spoilsman but as a source of scarce gener­ osity. By 1912, she was prom­ inent enough to second the presidential nomination of Theodore Roosevelt and cam­ paigned vigorously for his un­ successful candidacy. She opposed World War I and was vilified for it, but in 1931, she won the Nobel Peace Prize with the plaudets of per­ sons who had once labeled her treasonable for her pacifist ac­ tivities. True to her belief in analyzing and publicizing her efforts for social reform, she produced an impressive body of publications, including her masterpiece. Twenty Years at Hull House, and her equally excellent, Peace and Bread in Time of War. Those volumes plus at least five others as well as a host of articles and speeches still provide a superb commentary on the revolt of youth, the plight of women, the uprooting of immigrants, and the disintegration of fam­ ily life under the pressures of industrialism. From the perspective of one who spent a lifetime dealing with those who felt its shocks at first hand, her real contribu­ tions in many ways have been covered up by the saintliness which later observers have attributed to her, a traditional American method of dealing with those who ask uncomfort­ able questions. What are the ominous di­ rections for wnds to blow from? Can useful weather i n f o r m a t i o n b e o b t a i n e d from the use of a wind vane only? The worst weather in the United States often follows winds out of the east or north. Yes, it is possible to detect valuable clues about the weather using only a wind vane. If one will combine the vane with a barometer, the accuracy of predictions will be raised many times. However, with only a wind vane, be suspicious of a wind change from the east to the north. If the sky looks threatening (or a barometer reading shows pressure failing) you might well be in for a bad storm. Likewise, a wind chang­ ing from south to east is often a bad omen. Remember that bad weather systems in this country (low pres­ sure areas) move counter clockwise, and drift east­ ward. Wind changes often reveal what section of this circular movement you are then in. from a 44 jy A %y YOU'VE GOT WHAT IT TAKES! The ingredients for success are no secret from Johnny Miller, whose worldwide popularity, golfing excellence and engaging personality put him firmly in the com­ pany of all-time greats." So you can be sure that he knows what he's talking about when he says that newspaper carriers have what it takes. "These young people," he says, "have the quali­ ties to get ahead. Dedication, helpfulness, responsibility and willingness to work are all part of the makeup of every newspaper carrier." There's no doubt that these same traits explain why so many carriers are setting aside a part of their earnings for college and other important future needs. Lots of them use U. S. Savings Bonds to build up this fund for the future, because they know they can count on Bonds. It's the kind of dependability they understand. So the Treasury Department is proud to join Johnny Miller in his tribute to newspaper carriers. We hope you'll join us in recogniz­ ing these young people this Newspaper Carrier Day, 1975. 55 A Golfing Prodigy... Johnny Miller swung his first golf club at the age of five. He was national Junior champion, a college All- American and, at 19, the low amateur in the '66 U. S. Open. He set U. S. Open and course records in winning the '73 Open and was named Golfer of the Year in 1974. Take stock in America. Buy U.& Savings Bonds L0$$MANN'$ MEATS 5000 W.
