•'W • A renewed intensive search for boys 8 years and older in McHenry county, has been launched by the Kishwaukee Scout district to find and train tomorrow's leaders. Missing from the Cub Scout program are boys 8,9 or 10 years old, or who have completed the second grade. Missing from the Boy Scout program are boys 11 years or. older, or who have completed the fifth grade. Missing from the Exploring program are high school boys and girls. A reward of personal satisfaction has been offered to any parent or person directing or encouraging an eligible youth into one of these programs of proven youth leadership training. In February of 1980, Scouting will be 70 years young. The Scouting program is a challenge and requires serious, dedicated work. Fun in the sun is not what Scouting's all about, but, Scouting is fun. Using the tools of nature and the challenge of surviving in the out-of-doors, with the •3 ' f . '4*v responsibility for the welfare Of others, the young Scout learns the need for community effort and how he must serve his community. The early com­ munity of a Scout may be a Cub Pack den or a Boy Scout patrol. These lessons learned by a Scout in an actual group situation, teach the Scout that he must not only be physically fit, but also must be a person of individual moral character and a contributing citizen of his community. Schools, churches, civic organizations and parent groups throughout • McHenry county give the necessary support to sponsor Cub packs, Scout troops and Explorer posts. Some 2,000 boys in McHenry county are in Scouting; 6,000 boys are missing. Leading the search parties are Pete Corson, of Woodstock, for Explorer Scouts, Dayton Primrose, of Algonquin, for Boy Scouts, and Conrad Floeter, of Crystal Lake, for Cub scouts. Explorer Posts will hold "First Nighters", and Scout Troops, "Rally Night" to Missionaries In City Two new residents in the persons of Elder Mark Van Langeveld of Redondo Beach, Calif., and Elder Kyle Ohman of Claremont, Calif., have recently joined the McHenry community. Both young men are 20. Elder Van Langeveld is seriously interested in Art and owns part interest in an art gallery near his home. He attended college for two years at the University of Southern California before receiving his call. Elder Ohman attended Brigham Young university for one year studying Business Management and played on the university rugby team. For the present they have put aside their personal interests to serve as missionaries for two years for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). A total of 28,000,000 young ladies and men are HAPPY HOUR DAILY tp-7pa ALL MHKSHt LIVE ENTERTAINMENT Thursdav Friday SitMbv I Ml wMJi linMJt VflWiNJ MONDAY NIGHT.. 1ADIES NIGHT ALL DRINKS 50€ Wednesday 5pn-9pn WW InRllwWwHJ w^eoo W^«a BEER NIGHT (10 01) 30C GLASS FASHION SHOW-f rifay 2 PIMPM BANIHIET FACILITIES AVAILABLE UP TO 50 PEOPLE Salad Bar with Hot and Cold Buffot Salad Bar Buffet Hours: Lunch: 1 lam-3pm (Mon.-Sat.) $2.98 Sunday Brunch lOam-Spm 84.21 Children Undar 12 Half Prte* •JVIc^eniy* Inn (*Fan\ily Hoq^e 4512 W.

Cub Packs, with permission of all superintendents and principals of each elementary school in McHenry county, will conduct their traditional "School Night", whereby any third, fourth or fifth grader, along witti his parents, need only come to his own school on Thursday evening, Sept. 20, to join a Cub pack in his neigh­ borhood; in some communities, "School Night" will be held earlier. Serving as this year's Community Organizers for Cub Scouting are Sue Warren for McHenry, Norma Seelandt for Richmond-Spring Grrove, Barbara Mendlik for John- sburg and Marilyn Iodice for Wonder Lake. Since Scouting is a family experience, parents and other adult leaders are also being recruited and will be trained by the Scout district staff. As Judge Floeter says, "If you haven't time to help youngsters find the right way in life, somebody with more time will help them find the - wrong way." Give and Take. Give a little today. Take a lot tomorrow. That's what makes United States Savings Bonds a great way to secure your future. And why over nine million people like you have already joined the Payroll Savings Plan. You see, once you sign up, a small part of each paycheck is set aside to buy Bonds. Saving is so automatic, you'll soon forget about it. So buy United States Savings Bonds. Automatically, through the Payroll Savings Plan. You won't even feel like you're giving, until all those Bonds are yours for the taking. Kyle Ohman, left, and Mark VanLangeveld are in the McHenry community for a time serving as missionaries for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (Mormon). presently serving missions throughout the world. These young people are supported by their families while serving the Lord or many have worked and saved to finance their missions. The elders are available to introduce residents of McHenry to the Mormon church; about some of their principles, beliefs and organization. The LDS church is well known for its unique programs such as the Family Home Evening, Genealogy, the Church Welfare program and its beautiful Temples all over the world. The LDS chapel is located in Crystal Lake on Walkup road, across from Veteran's Acres park. Anyone interested may visit the chapel at 10:30 a.m. for Sunday School and the Sacrament service begins at 5 p.m. The elders may be reached at 344-3348 before 9:30 a.m. and after 10 p.m. /CS stocL. _ in̂ merica. I TAX FACTS I Often it seems as though modern life is full of problems. We have problems getting the car repaired; problems getting service in a restaurant. One of the biggest problems seems to be cutting through the red tape to find someone to handle your problem. But there's at least one bright spot. If you have a persistent problem with the Internal Revenue Service and can't get satisfaction through normal channels, there is someone who can handle your difficulty in the IRS Problem Resolution office, or PRP for short. PRP is designed to handle the difficulties that a taxpayer has not been able to get resolved through normal channels. These can run the gamut from problems with late or lost refunds and incorrect billings, to questions on the status of an audit or a collection action. Last year, over 55,000 tax­ payers nationwide received help from PRP. One type of case involved taxpayers who were repeatedly billed for taxes owed, even after they had presented proof of payment. They turned to PRP after being unable to resolve the difficulty through regular IRS procedures. In another type of case, a taxpayer filed a return ex­ pecting a refund but received a bill instead. The taxpayer checked with the IRS and, as instructed, filed an amended return. Months later-still no refund. PRP provided assistance. PRP gives personalized attention to each problem in the sense that a taxpayer usually will deal with one person and also may find the problem resolved within five days. If not, PRP will give the taxpayer a status report and a projected completion date. Of course, there are limits on the types of problems PRP can handle. For instance, it is not a substitute for normal taxpayer assistance, and the IRS stresses that no one should call PRP unless normal channels prove futile. Obviously, if every type of problem were first directed to the PRP office, that system would quickly bog down and become useless. Do not go through PRP on such matters as decisions made during an audit, Freedom of Information requests, Privacy act inquiries, and complaints about IRS. hiring practices. These are handled by other offices. A call to the IRS toll-free number will be referred to the right place., From the IRS point of view, there's an important- added dimension to PRP. By keeping track of recurring difficulties reaching the Problem Resolution office, IRS managers can often identify and remedy quirks in the system. In essence, then, PRP benefits not only the taxpayer but the IRS as well. i Now how do you reach PRP? Simple enough. Just call IRS Taxpayer Assistance and ask for PRP. I nusi i •» Lee's Time (By Father William C. Hanner, rector emeritus of Holy Comforter church, Episcopal, Kenilworth, a former McHenry resident now living in Florida) We are vacationing at the answer to one of General Robert E. Lee's problems. Both Northern and Southern Armies went into the Civil war, thinking it would be short and with many problems not thought out. One problem was what to do with prisoners of war and another was what to do with convalescents who were out of the hospital but still not ready for further duty. Lee answered the second problem by sending these men to the valley where we are now vacationing. Part of it was even called Happy Valley. All of it is in Virginia but next to the West Virginia state line. This is an area where people vacationed even as the Revolutionary war receded into the past. We are about 120 miles west of Washington, D.C. Our altitude here is 3,400 feet--a pleasant variation from the sea level of St. Petersburg. There are people here who trace their lineage back to the founding of our country. There are old homes; there are battle field markers and one historical marker says that here stood the house in which Lincoln's father had been born. The Episcopal church owns about 1,000 acres of this country-here we have a camp to which people come from many parts of the country. We are from Florida, but we came here as Illinoisans and there is a friend of ours from Tempe, Ariz. The village of Orkney Springs, Va., lies at the end of the road. There are eighteen houses and two stores in the village and three gas pumps. I can get lead free for 99.9 cents a gallon. (See if you can figure out how close to a dollar a gallon that is). On the west of the small town lies Shrine Mont and the f Cathedral Shrine of the Transfiguration. Shrine Mont is the summer camp to which we have come. It is composed of a CONSUMER VCHECKLIST Use With Care . . . Cosmetics can enhance attractiveness and self- confidence. But you should use beauty aids with extreme care, specialists warn.

There is a large central building with an enormous kitchen and dining rooms from which as many as 326 people can be fed at a sit­ ting. Here you can come to con­ ferences, ride horses, play golf (ten miles away) and eat, rest, drive the country side, go to the county fair or otherwise en­ tertain yourself. Behind the camping facilities there rises a mountain. Just on the edge of the camp and mountain is the Shrine of the Transfiguration. Here is an outdoor altar protected from rain by a sort of cross between a little roofing and a baldachin (if you don't know what this is look it up. I had to look up the spelling). Here is the Bishop of Virginia's chair, throne or cathedra. It is the only outdoor cathedral I have ever seen or heard of. If you can find another I'd like to hear of it. It is a glorious place. It has been my good fortune in days that are past to celebrate Holy Communion at this altar. We have vacationed here seven summers. Between us and the village of Orkney Springs lies a complex of old hotel buildings. There is the Maryland building and the Orkney Springs hotel-these structures were started before the Civil War but were finished after the war in the late 1860s, They have recently been given historical status by the federal government. About six months ago, the Church purchased them from- the former owner. The present Use of these buildings is amazing. For years, orchestras came here and lived while a school for conductors was in session. You couid hear some fine music in those days and their annual concert at the end of the term was attended by folks from near and far. They are to be resumed.
