This recommendation was passed with only one no vote. Trustee Russell Nockels told the board he felt the request for bigger garages was caning in quite frequently and the present ordinance designating the size of the allowable garages should be adhered to more closely- The board unanimously passed a motion repurchase a traffic and speed counter. This action came following the, report of the safety advisory committee by Rich Hulet Hutet told the board his committee had met with state representatives and school officials and they had been informed there was money available to help defray the expense of crossing guards and signs.

A traffic survey was needed, however, and this is where the board took the action of purchasing a traffic and speed counter. Trustee Dan Hudson informed the board the police department' took a survey of the village and found that many of the intersections had accidents reported at them due to poor visibility brought about by such items as plantings and fences too near the intersections. During discussion, it was noted there were some 52 streets which had such conditions and of these, 28 had the conditions existing on the public right-of-way. The board agreed the people with conditions causing traffic problems at intersections should be notified of their existence in writing so they could have an opportunity to correct these problems themselves.

Dr. John Fallon, assistant professor and coordinator of the institute for community at Ball State University, Indiana, will be one of the speakers at the community services workshop training sessions to be held for Crystal Lake citizens.

Dr. Fallon is a native of Gwinn, and received his PhD in community education from Michigan State University. The purpose of the seminars is to train Crystal Lake citizens in ways to coordinate the services and facilities which the community has to offer. Duplication of programs and less than total use of facilities are characteristics of communities that have no planned coordination of these areas. The public is invited to find out what is meant by community services and what it can do for Crystal Lake.

Call Becky Strong, 459-6070, to register for the seminars which will begin Nov. 17 and 18 from 7-10 pan. in the North Junior High Commons. The total training program will encompass 8-days spread over a 9-month period. Ctirisimas to 34 per cent in the fourth quarter.

As a result, the overall Continental Consumer Sentiment Index, based on consumer attitudes on family finances, family income, and present and future business conditions, fell 3-points to 105 in the fourth quarter, its lowest level in 1976. Despite this drop, however, the overall average index for the year stands at 108, a highpoint since Continental began compiling the statistics in 1972. The mixed consumer attitudes also week from 7 a.m. to 3:30 pan. No appointment is necessary.

St Joseph Hospital will offer the testing Monday through Saturday from 7 JO ul to 5:30 run. An appointment is necessary and can be made by calling 313-635200, ext 298. Memorial Hospital, Woodstock, is offering the tests Monday through Friday by appointment Call 338-2500, ext 290. McHenry Hospital is administering the blood tests Monday through Saturday but is limiting it tn trwIfaiAmln 40 and over and to 300 tests. Appointments should be made by calling 385-2200, ext 623.

Watson, who handled the report, said the false police report charge was filed because Stock had given him a false statement Although Watson said the report has not yet been completed and the accident is still being investigated, the charge stemmed from a question regarding the name given. McHenry County Sheriff Art Tyrreil commented on the incident by saying he would not be taking any action on the matter until the tickets have been decided in court. He added that the gravity of the case will determine whether it goes to a review board for possible action. "I will treat this case just as if Stock were any citizen on the street," Tyrrell said. However, the survey taken in October also shows those same families sense a worsening in business conditions and are less confident about the future than they were during the third quarter.

In October, almost one-fourth of the respondents said present business conditions were worse than a year ago, compared with 10 per cent who held that attitude in the July survey. In addition, the percentage of families who believe next year's conditions will be better dropped 10-points conditions to have a blood test: frequent urination, abnormal thirst, rapid weight loss, extreme hunger, drowsiness, general weakness, visual disturbances, frequent sUn infections or anyone with a family history of diabetes. In order for the most accurate test to result, an individual preparing to have the test should have eaten regularly for 3-days previously. The day of the test, a nigh carbohydrate meal should be eaten lto to Huun prior to the blood test Coffee and tea should be avoided unless decaffeinated. Sherman Hospital is offering the blood tests Monday through Friday ttds Optimism over personal finances is spreading Christmas cheer throughout the northern suburbs, but uncertainly over the economy in general should hold holiday gift spending to last year's levels, according to Continental Bank's Family Financial Survey.

The survey, a quarterly gampling 0f attitudes of 750 metropolitan-area Chicagoans, reports that more than a third of north suburban families say they are better off financially now than they were in 1975, and 41 have increased their incomes. were reflected in Christmas spending plans: although 15 per cent of north suburban families intend to increase purchases, only 4 of 10 expect to spend the same as last year, and almost a third plan to spend less. "Caution is evident in the ways consumers said they would use credit cards to meet holiday expenses," said Janice Ventura, Continental's personal money management specialist who coordinated the survey. Forty-five per cent of north I suburban families will use credit cards sparingly for under half of their pur- chases, indicating a reluctance to take on large increases in personal debt The main beneficiaries of holiday buying will be shopping centers and neighborhood stores, according to the survey; and most purchases will take place after Thanksgiving. Food and liquor head most gift lists, followed by doming, toys, games, craft items, cosmetics, perfumes, and books.

Area hospitals participating in Diabetes Detection Week A Thought To Remember -A by JUvin Querhammer Everyone believes in something or someone. A 1 bel'e a Persona' possession of those who possess a mind. The belief is not always necessarily right '-1 When or when not to change a belief can be and iTi often is a perplexing problem. It involves a self- analysis of judgment Everyone of course is entitled to his or her belief whatever it may be. Right or wrong.

Ridiculous or sensible. Everyone is also entitled to try to change the belief of others. Politicians certainly know this and sometimes do it Clergymen and religious minded people likewise know this and sometimes do it Does it not seem logical to ask what is one of the best ways to change a non-believer into a religious believer? Is it not good reasoning to realize religious minded people believe in God, not because they have not seen Him, but because they have seen His works? Does it not follow then that personal habits and an exemplary' way of life is one of the best means to bring about a belief in God by others? In short, is not such an attitude and action a "part of His works?" QUEKHAMX El FUNERAL HOKE, 500 W. Terra Cotta Ave. Crystal Lake.
