PAGE 18-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, JUNE 20, 1973 Inspiration: • On School Teaching When Austin Durst of Junction, Texas, graduated from high school in 1907, the students were asked to write out their life goals and put them in a box. "Ten years later," she remembered, "they picked me to open the box. I had written, 'I want to be a successful teacher.' That remained my goal until the last day I taught." That "last day" was only a few years ago. Austin Durst retired at the age of 80, after 63 years teaching the* first grade. The prin­ cipal of the school and the members of the^ school board had all been taught to read by her. So had well over 3,000 other people - four generations of children - in Junction (pop. 1,500). "I think I learned more than I taught all those years," she said. "But I have ho special wisdom. I was just a first grade teacher, nothing more." Her words, however, have the ring of wisdom: "I taught simply because I loved to teach and love the people I taught." "Success in life doesn't involve cleverness or money or station, but simply involving yourself with others.*' "I tried to teach the three R's and also something about truth and honesty and respect for others. A successful teacher does both - at least that's my definition." "So many children came into my classroom from homes where there was no love. I did my best to let them know there was such a thing as love. There were times when all a child wanted or needed was to sit in my lap a while. I've taught an entire day with a child in my lap . . .Other times I would wake up at night worrying how to reach this one or that one. But it was worth the worry/' Her reward? "I will go to Heaven and all the pupils I ever taught will be there, all the thousands of them. I will walk through the gates and they will all stand up and say 'Good morning, Miss Aussie.' And I will know them, every one." Pilot Program Helps Develop Area Resources spurgeon's Shop now! Annua Lady Pepperell Bed and Bath Layaway Event! Colorful! Refreshing!

Dan Walker. The pilot program includes nine communities: Paw Paw, Cedarville and Hebron in northern Illinois; Astoria, Mt. Sterling and Milford in central Illinois; and Goreville, Lebanon and Waltonville in southern Illinois. Their populations range from 381 to 3,564. The communities were selected for the program because of their independent efforts at self-improvement. Gov. Walker said a state­ wide task foj-ce directed by the Department of Local Gowern- ment Affairs will work with a local steering committee in each participating town. Task force workers will be available to the local groups primarily to expedite assistance from ap­ propriate state and federal agencies. All residents of each com­ munity will be encouraged to take part in the program. Besides the Department of Local Government Affairs, task force members are drawn from the state Departments of Conservation, Business and Economic Development and Transportation, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and the federal Far­ mers Home Administration, i The pilot program was prompted by a 1971 study [demonstrating that local igovernmpnts with inadequate tax bases and dwindling populations are often unable to provide the opportunities services and facilities necessary for a self-sustaining community. Of the 102 counties in Illinois, forty-nine showed a drop in population during each of the last two decades, according to federal census data. Demographers attribute the population decline at least in part to deteriorating economic and social conditions in rural Illinois. Populations and locations by counties of the nine com­ munities are: Paw Paw (1,281), Lee county; Cedarville (578), Stephenson county; Hebron (781), McHenry county; Astoria (1,281), Fulton county; Mt. Sterling (2,182), Brown county; Milford (1,656), Iroquois county; Goreville (1,109), Johnson county; Lebanon (3564), St. Clair county and Waltonville (381), Jefferson county.

Dan Walker has invited readers of this newspaper to fwk him questions concerning state government. All questions will be an­ swered by letter and those with the widest interest will appear in a column entitled "ASK THE GOVERNOR". "Every citizen of Illinois who has a question about state government deserves an an­ swer," Walker said. Questions should be ad­ dressed to: "Ask The Gover­ nor", Illinois Information Service, Room 105, State Office Building, Springfield, 111. 62706. Each letter to the governor must be signed and an address provided. Give Advice For Outdoor Cooking Fun K For the outdoor cookout, never use a highly flammable liquid, such as gasoline, to start or improve the burning of a charcoal fire. Those liquid charcoal star­ ters, which are moderately flammable, are acceptable but must be used with care. Use these starters only to dampen the charcoal before lighting, says the Institute for Safer Living. Never use them on live coals, hot surfaces, or a flaming fire. The safest way to start a charcoal fire is to kindle with II ; m. m % •tiff •: 1 FAREWELL - Hilltop school's fifth grade students are shown presenting their traditional |j farewell sing to the rest of the student body.
