Cut along dotted line - The "Were You Counted" campaign 1s designed to attempt to insure a 100 percent accurate count in the 1980 census. If the Census bureau is to achieve this goal it is necessary that everyone do his part. Failure to do so will result in a loss of approximately $320 per person for the McHenry community. Local review of the census is about to start. Without the support of each individual the housing units and population count* will not be accurate and computations will suffer. A form accompanying this article may be mailed to the Census center by anyone who believes that a person in that household was not counted.

FAMILY REUNION The Fourth of July was a very busy, but happy, day at the Bill Cristy home; Shirley and Bill entertained 73 members of the Christy clan. As well as all the folks in Illinois, there were some from Wisconsin, Iowa and lishington, D.C. tmong those attending were Larry and Diane Cristj from Indianola, la. and Lori Fossum from Washington, D.C. Reunions are great to keep the family ties intact and what better day than the fourth. BARN FIRE It was a real disaster when fire completely destroyed the big dairy barn on the John Hogan farm last Thursday. Fortunately, the dairy cows had been turned out of the barn but they did lose three head of young stock in the fire. Neighbors have been a tremendous help in getting the cattle milked morning and night, with Urb Bauer offering the use of his barn. Windows were cracked in the house across the driveway but no serious damage was done. BIRTHDAY FETE Bob and Martha Betts went to Chicago this past weekend to visit daughter Debbie and hubby Bill Bork, but the real reason is that their grandson, Aaron, became four years old on July 4, (a live firecracker). Of course grandma and grandpa couldn't resist any excuse to spoil that grand son. They enjoyed ^a delicious birthday dinner aha birthday cake and Aaron enjoyed gifts from the grandparents. HQUSEBOATIN^ Walt and Doris Low spent the 4th of July on the Mississippi, along with three other/Couples, Bob and Carol WiUon; Marge and Ray >re; and Bob and Gayle lursen, all of McHenry. 'Twas quite an experience! Doris and Walt are the only couple who had gone on one before, but fun was had by all. Even when they got hung up on the beach from the tug boat going by. CALIFORNIA ARRIVALS When Doris and Walt arrived home they were met by daughter Donna and granddaughter Cori Lynn Crocfer, to spend the week. Daddy Phil had to stay home and work. Cori Lynn, 8 months just had to see her grandpa Low before she got loo old. ^ BIRTHDAYS Happy ANNIVERSARIES A very "Happy An niversary" to lirry and JoAnn Bruce on July 17, and we wish you two many more years of wedded bliss.

Box 306 1257 North Green Street McHenry, III. 60050 ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Illinois Attorney General William J. Scott advised in a formal legal opinion that it is unlawful for the same person to be village mayor and a school board member, under Illinois law. Scott, in the opinion rendered to Vermilion county Slate's Attorney Thomas J. Fahey, declared the offices are "in compatible" but stated that the dual holding of the of fices is not in violation of corruption statutes in the absence of any demon strable pecuniary or proprietary, interest on the part of the individual in volved. Villages and school boards in Illinois often join in contractual relationships, or compete^.in revenue sharing, ihus creating a conflict of interests. In. response to an ad- ditional question from Fahey, Scott noted that information provided in- kin of a veteran in the following order: widow, children, father, mother, brothers, sisters, etc. dicated that the person in volved was a member of the school board whose jurisdiction covered Rossville, Illinois, at the lime that person accepted appointment as the Mayor of Rossville. Scott observed i hat the chronology of the events meant under rules of law that the person had resigned as a school board member at the lime he accepted the other post, with no action at law necessary to establish that fact.- ' As to the question of school board business conducted during the participation by a "resigned member", Scott noted that court decisions have created the common law premise lhat the in dividual was serving as a "de facto" member anch therefore the business of the board was legally tran sacted.

YOU CRN BRNK it! , Presented by STATE BANK OF RICHMOND member F.D.I.C. Finding the "villain" in the recent economic "unpleasantness" is about * as tough a task as anyone could cut out for them selves. However, there is one group that may have received an unfair amount of blame. Inflation is, of course, the unpleasantness. The villain being sought is the cause of inflation. And the group being blamed most flagrantly is the consumer. Through the elaborate system of credit controls instituted by the federal government, it is strongly implied that consumers were on a wild and reckless credit spending spree which had to be controlled to ease inflation. Facts don't tend to strongly support that idea. Consumer debt (not counting' mortgages) in creased to 22.5% of disposable income from 20% ten years earlier. Although that increase is higher than generally recommended, it is still a long way from a consumer credit binge. And it is only a light breeze compared to the hurricane of govern ment spending increases during the same period. It is true, all of us need to watch our financial Ps and Qs to help keep inflation in check, but it is also evident that a number of other factors are probably greater ' con tributors to the problem of inflation.
