Hold annual canoe trip Saturday, Sept. 28, the McHenry County Chapter of Illinois Audubon will hold its annual canoe trip. Dwight Dalton, leader of this field trip, reports that the participants will canoe down the Sugar River, putting in at a point about 10 miles west of Beloit, Wis. The trip will last four to five hours. According to Dalton, the ca­ noeing is downstream and not stren­ uous. Most of the stream runs level with the banks, giving good views of wild life along the river.

Hold annual family fest McHENRY - The fifth annual Kamholz family fest was held Sun­ day, Sept. 15, in Veteran Acres park, Crystal Lake. This reunion is a gath­ ering of the descendants of the late Fred and Bertha Kamholz, formerly of McHenry. Traveling the longest distance were Marie Valentine Kamholz For- man and her son Paul Kamholz Jr. of California. Marie's presence marked the first time in almost 30 years that the Kamholz daughters- in-law (Anna, Helen and Marie) were able to be together* Also joining the clan were Robert L. Kamholz Jr. and his mother Hel­ en Kamholz, formerly of Cary. Rob­ ert is the graridson of Albert Kam­ holz, a half brother of Fred. He has been able to trace the family tree to a mutual great-grandfather Johann Kamholz in Germany. Perfect weather afforded the fam­ ily the opportunity to meet the youn­ gest great-great-granddaughter of Fred and Bertha, four-week-old Dana Michelle Wattman. Baby makes five Five generations got together recently for the above family picture. From left to right, standing, are the new mother Donna Lynn (Er- win) Haanpaa of Woodstock and grandma Sue (Low) Jette of Mc­ Henry, holding 3-month-old Dale Edward Haanpaa.

II 8 If You Fail To Receive Your McHenry Plaindealer Before 7:00 a.m. • Please Call Our Circulation Dept. Before 10:00 a.m. at 385-0178. We'll Bring One Right Out To You! Plaindealer Circulation Dept. 385-0178 'Full Service' 1985 Style When all of us began buckling up last July 1, we were told that this little annoying act would cut traffic injuries and deaths immeasurably. The statistics were on the side of those who made that promise so we selected to remain quiet on that point. Distasteful as it was to snap and unsnap for the frequent, short trips we made by car, it was legal and we have abided by the law. But before proponents throw their convincing evidence our way a year from now we'diike to clear the record. If traffic deaths are down in the summer of '86 it is no real gafci because deaths this year have increased markedly. And in all likelihood they're up because an older law on the books isn't being enfor&d. A few years ago we were asked to comply with a 55-niile-per-hour speed limit. Some did, others didn't. /It might have been easier to,get compliance if there had been stiff fines for offenders and if more drivers received tickets for flagrant violations. As it is, Illinois traffic fatalities increased 13.7 percent over July, 1984 and were up 5.7 percent compared to July, 1963. If this is true in Illinois, where we have less evidence about the number of arrests, it certainly must be true in Wisconsin, where you can go for miles in a steady stream of traffic driving between 60 and 70 and never see a driver stopped. This is in spite of huge signs that read: 55 means 55. This is just to clear the record when someone tells us next July that usin'& anderin BY ^ fatalities are down. They had better be down or it only means that we are not only refusing to enforce the speed law but also the seat belt requirement. The subject of cars invariably brings up a related topic of gas prices and service received. The answer may well be that drivers would be prudent to soil their hands and fill it up themselves rather than leave it to a service station employee. This observation comes from first hand experience. The following was our own encounter with what is commonly but often mistakenly termed 'full service:' Driver: Fill it up. The car is fairly new but maybe I should have the oil checked. Attendant: No response. Driver: (Stretching out the window). While you're under the hood would you also check the radiator? Attendant: No response. Driver: Maybe you didn't hear me, but I wondered if you would check the radiator. Attendant: I couldn't check it. The engine's hot. Drtver: What would you suggest, that I drive the few blocks from home when the engine cools and have you check it? Attendant: Yeah! > Attendant: Thirty dollars! Driver: What? That's a lot of money. I had it filled in a tank that had even more gas last week and it was $23.50. Attendant: You've got a big engine. Driver: I know, but I had the same big engine last week. Attendant: No response. We drove away, bewildered and with a substantially reduced billfold. This was full service? In telling friends they, too, uttered a small gasp. Ours was bigger, it was our money. -- * Legal Notices PUBLIC NOTICE STATE OF ILLINOIS ) ) SS COUNTY OF McHENRY ) IN THE CIRCUIT COURT OF MC HENRY COUNTY.
