What causes them to form9 I An occluded front is almost always formed when a coldvront (which travels up to 35 m.Vh. or sometimes even faster) over takes the slower-moving warm front. The cold air mass pushes the warm, often moist, air up ward and there's a mixing pro cess which may confuse the observer on the ground and Offer Defensive Driving Course Thoughtful drivers are be coming defensive-minded as the way to avoid accidents and stay alive, says Larry Hale, instruc tor for next week's defensive driving course at the Farm Bur eau building.

East campus, has been honored through a report which appeared in the Kansas Music Review, official publication of the Kansas Music Educators as sociation and of the Kansas Music Teachers association. Prepared by A. Robert Buss, assistant professor of Music Education at the University of Kansas, it is based on a mas ter's thesis by Mr. Toalson, M.M.E., the University of Kan sas, in 1970. Entitled Research Reports, the story deals with Mr. Toal-- son's study into the personal ity factors which could be as sociated with music teachers. The purpose of his study was "to investigate the way secon dary school teachers prefer to use perception and judgment". By these preferences, Toalson hoped to establish the person ality types for these two cat egories of teachers. According to Buss, if these personality types could be established, it might be possible to find the persons who are psychological ly and emotionally suited to be come teachers before they have made substantial commitment to any particular profession. CONCLUSIONS "Toalson's study indicates that it was possible to find a personality type for thymusic teachers tested. The study did not test the relationship of per sonality type with success in teaching. Nevertheless, since the teachers who participated did so voluntarily, it seems log ical to assume*^hat they were more secure and possibly more successful than the average tea cher. Further study would be necessary before any definite conclusions could be stated. "Some other majorquestions remain unanswered. First, it would be valuable to know if a person's type of personality caused him to enter a specific profession, or if the profes sion caused a conformity of personalities. Second, do dis tinct personality types emerge for teachers in other specific subject areas? Finally, why does there seem to be a per sonality difference between mu sic educators and other types of musicians? "The results of this study should cause music educators to think seriously about their dealings with fellow teachers and with students. If the per sonality type is correct, the music educator must realize that his colleagues do not al ways express the same pref erence, and may not readily agree to his point of view. In dealing with other people, whether teachers of students, the- music educator miist be careful about making snap jud- ments without a strong basis In fact." eOME OF us [ARE BEGlMNlNGr TO REALIZE- [WHAT A REALLY FlNlE CHRISTMAS, ! vs/E MAP ABOUT A MONTH f\OQ.. / SAT. 9:30 P.M. noon to 8 P.M. /% FOR <O-( YOUR BARGAIN PRICES 05 VIRGINIA @[ .

When the family moved to Iowa I went to school and worked there before taking up land in the Dakotas. Going first to Boston, I later established myself in Chicago in 1893. The first book was " Main-travelled Roads," which was about the Middle West. This region was the subject of my writings for four decades, with tales of the harshness of farm life. In the novels. "Jason Edwards, An Average Man," and "A Spoil of Office," I advocated populist doctrines and the single tax. With later novels the stories of the Midwest were returned to. The "Son of the Middle Border," an autobiography, has beomce* one of the classics In America. Although another book, "A Daughter of the Middle Border," was responsible for winning a Pulitzer prize, few^people nowa days have ever heard of it.

It is designed to present a broader knowledge of this disease which plagues Illinois. The articles have been prepared by the Division of Preventive Medicine of the Illinois Department of Public Health--Editor.) Is rabies a "modern" disease? Is it fatal? How much of a problem is it in Illinois. . . in McHenry county? Rabies, also called hydrophobia, is not a new disease. But it is just as fatal today as it was in ancient times. The earliest evidence of rabies is in wall murals of ancient civilizations. These show a mad dog running through the streets of a city ter rorizing the inhabitants. The first written record of rabies dates back to 500 B.C. In that year Democritus, a Greek, reported seeing the disease. Yet it was not until 600 years later that medicine discovered rabid dogs actually caused hydrophobia in man. North America was free from rabies in 1601 when this coun try's first settlement was established in Virginia. Not until 152 years later, 1753, was the disease seen here; it appeared in that first settlement in Virginia. By 1860, the disease had spread to most of the states east of the Mississippi river. Tlie disease rapidly crossed the continent and appeared in California in 1898. During this period there were reports concerning encoun ters with rabid skunks. These tales describe skunks attacking ^oxen, horses and dogs of settlers. In fact, entire mining camps were routed by the animals, the miners fearing the bites more than the odor. Every one of the fifty states except Hawaii has been host to the disease at one time or another. And what of today? Three states reported no rabies for the entire year of 1968, the most recent year for which national figures are available. Illinois was not one of these; in fact, only six states exceeded this state's total of 143 cases. Rabid dogs and cats presenj a much greater public health probferfi than other animals. True, only about 10 percent of the rabid animals each year are dogs and cats but 65 percent of the humans exposed have been in contact with a rabid dog or cat. The 1969 total of 104 cases breaks dpwn like this: dogs, 2; cats, 5; foxes, 8;' cattle, 19; skunks, 68; and bats, 2. Thus, it Ai seen that many other species, besides dogs, are infected. Unhappily, 2 of those 104 cases came from McHenry county! Contrast the above with the fact that there were fifty-three counties in Illinois which did not report a single case of rabies in 1969. Down through the years, improved methods for the control of animal rabies have greatly reduced the number of annual cases. .When dog vaccination became a law in Illinois, cases fell from a high of 206 rabid dogs in 1954 to 41 in 1955. This marked decrease in animal rabies has been responsible for a corresponding drop in human cases. Since 1965 there has not been a single case in humans in the entire state. Much of this drop is also due to the effectiveness of the Pasteur series of vaccinations. In the past thirty years, over one-half the human deaths have been in children 14 years and younger--a valid reason in itself for eliminating the disease.
