This long­ standing aim remains the same but with changing times, changing Efforts must follow. Innovative ways to ac­ complish this purpose occupy HP steering committees much of the time. The soon-to-open store is one means. In the near> future you will find wooden Shelter Banks placed in cooperating'stores in our area. They will serve as convenient depositories for the pennies, nickels, dimes, qtiarters, half dollars you can share in these inflationary times to aid the HP Shelter Fund. It all adds up and eventually is going to pay off with a much-needed facility for McHenry county.., And don't forget that tax-deductible donations earmarked for the HPShelter fund may b%£ent to the~ HP office, 465 Virginia Street, or to P.O. Box 205, Crystal Lake, 60014. As things stand now there are no foster homes to keep and care for the stray and found dogs reported to HP, until they are claimed or adopted. It seems no one wants to take in a dog for this type of temporary care, so they all find their way to Animal Control. The only exceptions are those dogs being held by persons who want to place them and are willing to keep them while they are listed in the HP columns, and through this means, adopted. Cats fare a lot better right now due to the reliable foster homes on the HP roster. It's difficult to evaluate how many times local residents may have missed finding the dog of their dreams mainly due to the time factor involved. When the dog cannot be held any longer and there is no place for it to go, a life is wasted. Realistically, a shelter facility could not save all of the animals, but it cer­ tainly would reduce the death statistics. Last call for reservations for the bridge luncheon to benefit Helping Paws Shelter fund. The event will take place on Tuesday, Feb> 6, at the Crystal Lake Country club, at 10 a.m. Phone Mrs. Reid, 459-8474, or Mrs. Tanan, for tickets in­ formation and to make your reservations. Duplicate Bridge will be played.

Wo ratarva tha right ta dalata any motarial which wa contidar libaloul or in ohioctionabla testa.) THE COURT SYSTEM "Editor: , "Is the fault ours? Two young men laugh after they kill five < people in an auto accident on Memorial day. A little girl of 10, Lorrie Rappaport, sees the savage injuries that kill her parents and three sisters the night of last May 26. She rode to the hospital in an ambulance with her two sisters while paramedics cried into the radio as they worked over the baby of the family -1 could hear the girls' screams in the background. Police and wit­ nesses say the young men were traveling at between 75 and 100 miles per hour and had run a stop sign before crashing into the Rappaport family's car. Evidence at the scene, and legal tests for intoxication, proved the driver had been drinking. "Three months later someone hears the young men laughing about the accident they had caused - they were in a bar drinking, and bragging about the fact that they had survived the crash in which Samuel Rappaport, his wife, Maureen, and three young children, Tracy Lynn, Eileen and Jennifer all died a violent death. Shows remorse and an effort to change, doesn't it? "Later the same month of the tavern incident, McHenry county deputies stopped a car near Johnsburg while on routine patrol - they later charged the driver with transportation of alcoholic liquor and driving on a suspended license - the driver h^d two friends with him in the car at the time of the traffic stop. His two friends were the same two young men who had been laughing over a fatal accident in the tavern several nights before -- the same two who killed five people while on a high speed joy ride while they had been drinking. These same two young men said to the «t deputy making the traffic stop that he should have seen the last accident they were in. More remorse? Any evidence here that they were trying to change their ways? "Monday, Jan. 22, 1979, John C. Waite entered a plea of guilty to five counts of reckless homicide. His lawyer and Assistant State's Attorney Suzanne Fayette, had decided that in return for the guilty plea, John Waite should get an 18 months' sentence. Judge Herrmann fouhd the sentence agreed upon to be fair. Now John C. Waite will be eligible for parole in nine months. Next October he will probably be out driving on the roads in McHenry county. "I am almost totally ignorant of the legal points in a case like this; however, morally, I am outraged that a person can kill five people and put a little girl through a living hell and be out of jail in nine months. That figures out to 1.8 months served for each person who died, and none at all for the little girl who watched \t happen. John Waiters laughing companion, the passenger in his car at the time of his accident, gets no sentence at all. "Whose fault is this mockery? The police did their job! As in so many cases, the lawyers and the judge didn't follow up the officer's work. Why not? Is it our fault for not speaking out when things like this happen? I think it is, that's why I wrote this letter. Perhaps if enough of us protest, sen­ tences will be more in keeping with the crime, and paroles won't be so easily granted. We all owe Lorrie Rappaport an apology for allowing her family's deaths to be laughed at by two young men who knew they had nothing to fear from our court system. Lorrie, I, for one, am more sorry than I can say.

What Just One Person Can Do Helen Derosis, Friend Of The Depressed According to Dr. Helen DeRosis, a New York psychiatrist, approximately 16 million Americans suffer from depression. She decided to do something about it by forming an organization called Depression Anonymous. By helping to heal hundreds - perhaps thousands • of those whose lives are tormented by feelings of being inadequate and unloved, she made a great contribution. I was intrigued by one of her techniques. Dr. DeRosis has the members of her organization spend 20 minutes a day doing something they enjoyed in the past. The theory is that every person has deep resources of strength and health within them. I wonder if the staggering increase in the numbers of those suffering from depression has anything to do with a raging intellectual epidemic called solipsism. The word comes from the Latin "solus" which means alone. It is the theory that the self can only be aware of its own experiences, that nothing else is real, nothing else is important. These ideas have led countless people to leave their jobs, their friends, and even their own families in search of self-realization. Most of them end up needing help. I believe in the old bromide: an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. So I would advise those who want to avoid future depression to read the Gospel for five minutes every day. Purging the mind of solipsism early may bethe best preventive defense for depression, The Gospel helps one to live in the reality of truth.
