The study, prepared by the U.S. Census Bureau and the Illinois Public Health Depart­ ment, showed Du Page County's population increased from the 1980 census level of 658,858 to an estimated 682,200 in 1982. That represented a rise of about 23,400, or 3.5 percent. According to Merwyn Nelson, a demographer with the public health department, McHenry County's population increased from the 1980 census level of 147,897 to an estimated 150,300 in 1982, an increase of 1.6 percent. Although the county population grew, it did not increase as much as it should have, Nelson said. In the two-year span, there were 3,000 more births than deaths in the county, but the net population increase was only 2,400, Nelson said, indicating that 600 people migrated from the county. The largest percentage population growth among the state's 102 counties during the same two-year period was found in Richland County. The in­ crease of about 800 people in that southern Illinois county was a 4.5 percent boost over its 1980 population of 17,587. Cook County registered the greatest population loss. The figures showed that 86,300 people moved out of the county, which contains the city of Chicago, from 1980 to 1982. Despite the migration, Cook's total population remained virtually unchanged at 5.25 million. During the same period, about 7,500 people moved into Du Page County, a suburban area on Cook's western border. The state's total population rose 0.2 percent from 11.4ST million in 1980 to 11.45 million in 1982. That figure has beenf previously reported; the county estimates were recently com­ piled from birth and death statistics and other^bverament' records. * .1 Other Chicago area counties showed population increases.- Lake County registered a 2.1 percent increase, Kane County was up one percent, and Will County's population edged up 0.7 percent. Tour of prairie, wetland set by county Audubon Society On Saturday, July 14, the McHenry County Chapter of Illinois Audubon Society will give a tour of Spring Hill Farm Fen, beginning at 8:30 a.m. The Fen is located in Lake-in-the- Hills, just south of the airport. Spring HIU Farm Fen, a complex of dry gravel prairie and unusual wetlands, lies in the hollow between two lines of glacial bluffs. The hills support rare prairie plants and are the source of mineral seepage water that supports a number of en­ dangered species in the alkaline wetlands. According to a Nature Con- sevancy spokesman, the area is "one of the best remnants of the pre-settlement ecosystem still in existence, and truly one of the most significant unprotected natural areas in Northern Illinois." Since the Fen is privately owned, visitation is allowed only to groups who have been granted permission to visit it. Hence, the field trip is an ex­ cellent opportunity to visit an otherwise inaccessible area of such unusual significance. Hie field trip is not limited to Audubon Society members. Interested members of the public are invited. Children should be accompanied by an adult member of the family. Because of the nature of the wetland area, participants are urged to wear footwear which can stand a little mud and water. Sun hats and mosquito repellent are also recom­ mended. * Access to the area is best froip) Pyott Road. From Pyott Roac^' go west on Willow Street blocks to Burr Street. right (north) on Burr, pr for three blocks to Plum Street.; Entrance to the Fen area will be> made at the entrance to the Sanitary District Treatment!

The council hopes to reduce illiteracy in Illinois by bringing together the educational, business, labor, library and vounteer communities that have been working on the problem individually. Activities will include a toll- free telephone line which will enable the public to obtain in­ formation about literacy programs in their local area, and a series of public hearings to enable the group to determine the scope of the problem in Illinois. "Illiteracy need not be a deadend street for Illinois citizens," commented Edgar. "Through this council we hope to provide programs enabling them to become more active, productive and confident members of our society." fantasy Adventure! THE LAST STARFIGHTER,.
