TION AMD - T~: HEALTH PROGRAMS CONDUCTED BY 4-H The electric farm show of the Public Service Company of Northern Illinois, which has been a feature of northern Illinois county fairs for the past five years, will be featured at the Mc- Henry county fair in Woodstock, July 24, 25, 26 and 27, with a completely new exhibit, it is announced by the utility. The new display, especially produced for county fairs, shows how electricity saves both dollars and work for the farmer and the farm wife. Housed in a "big top" tent, 60x60 feet, the exhibit features actual electrical equipment and blow-up photographs demonstrating new and better ideas for doing farm chores. The latest kitchen and laundry appliances will be displayed on a colorful turntable and the story of how electricity is made will be told through regular showings of a two-minute slide film. Actual top sections of typical transmission and distribution pole installations will show equipment and safety devices used in supplying electric service to farm customers. The electrical equipment in the display is based on ideas developed through the utility's cooperative program with the University of Illinois and the U. S. Department of Agriculture. It will be the first time that some of the installations have been shown in northern Illinois. The exhibit will be open free daily to all visitors at the fairs. CHAMPION HEAD * * h n 'Am * 1 * • "t: HJtiNDEALER SAFE DRIVING The use of tinted goggles while driving a car at night, although dimming the glare of oncoming headlights, also reduces the motorist's ability to see roadside signs and markers and so is dangerous. This warninar comes from Thomas J. O'Donnell, superintendent of Illinois state police. A number of inquiries have been coming to police from motorists as to the advisability of colored glasses for night driving. O'Donnedd consulted six leading vision End highway safety experts; their Unanimous opinion is opposed to tinted glasses for a person behind the wheel of an auto at night. Three national 4-H programs : ' In Which club boys and girls help to make rural America safer, healthier, and happier are being continued this year in Illinois, the state 4-H club office announces. prft, They are the farm and home safety, health improvement and recreation-rural arts programs. 1961 records show that more -than 580,000 members all over ^ the country took part in the farm and home safety program, / checking and correcting accident r and fire hazards on home grounds and farmsteads. Nearly 750,000 | , ; 4-H'era improved their own pUt;- health and cooperated in improv- , ing health conditions in their homes and communities, and a ? half-million 4-H boys and girls assisted in developing recreational activities, as well as took part (> in music and art appreciation. Incentives for outstanding ' county records of achievement in . these programs are merit medals , for winners in safety, provided . by General Motors, and certificates of honor for those in both y health and recreation-rural arts. ^ in which Kellogg comnany and *' U. 8. Rubber, respectively, are awards donors. The respective donors also provide trips to the National 4-H Club Congress in Chicago next November for state winners in safety and health. In the latter, cash awards of twenty dollars to f each are presented to ten clubs ^ carrying the best health programs in the state. In recreational- rural arts, a twenty-five dollar cash award for the pur- ; chase of equipment wijl be given to each county naminer a blue award group of 4-H clubs. National awards are college scholarships of $300 each for eight top ranking winners in . safety; $100 U. S. savings bond and blue ribbon in health, and Chicago club congress trip for each of twelve champions in recreation and rural arts. Abstnet of Stnttering Among tvdians Subjoet of Study The virtual absence of stuttering among Indians would seem to indicate that they may have a way of life or philosophy which has aspects of superiority over the more highly "civilized" forms of existence. Dr. John C. Snidecori professor of speech at Santa Barbara College of the University of California, lived for several months among the Shoshone and Bannock tribes of southeastern Idaho, interviewed 800 Indians and received indirect data on 1,000 others, without finding a single full-fclooded Indian who stuttered. "From 18 to 40 stutterers would have been discovered in a normal similar-sized white population," said Dr. Snide cor. Contrary to general opinion, Dr. Snidecor found that the Indiahs could speak with great fluency, frequently with poetical symbolism which had the qualities of great literature. Dr. Snidecor found that tWfIndian father and mother exert very little pressure upon the child to speak. "TTie ability to speak appears to be evaluated as a normal process not to be quickened by overanxious parents for purposes of display," he added. The speech correctionist likewise found that adult Indians do not speak under pressure unless they so choose and may sit and cogitate for a long time before making an answer. Dr. Snidecor said the Indian had no exact word in his inn. guage for stuttering. Few residents of McHenry county realize the magnitude and importance of the dairy industry * of the county. The quality of the breeding stock, as shown in the county fair picture, taken at a/*: previous fair, is unsurpassed anywhere in the U nited States. This champion herd of three Jerseys comes from the Ray Nevel herd southwest of Marengo and is owned by one of his 4-H club member children. The McHenry county fair will be held July 24-27 At Woodstock. WALTER H. HOPKINS ELECTED TO BOARD "* IN NEW COMPANY The resignation of Walter H. Hopkins of Orchard Beach, McHenry, as director of the Bakers of America program is announced by J. Roy Smith, chairman of the program planning committee and president of the American Bakers association. Hopkins left the Bakers of America program on July 15 to join the National Bakers Services, Incorporated, promoters cf Hollywood bread. Hopkins assumed direction of the Bakers of America Program in 1948. Previously he had served in the advertising department of Purity Bakeries, as account executive at Campbell-Mithun advertising agency for Purity and the American Dairy association and at Batten, Barton, Durstine and Osborn, as account executive on the General Baking company account. Hopkins has been elected to the board of directors of National Bakers Services, Incorporated. Survoy Shows Koy Rett Of High Sehool Counsolor Secondary schools which have developed a highly personal system of advising students in academic careers and in preparation for their lifework are providing a service of Inestimable value, according to Dr. Paul A. Jones, associate pro> fessor of education at Santa 3arbam College of the University of California. On the other hand, those failing to give counseling service wkich in-, spires confidence are guilty of a "lamentable waste" in de"4lopiig the potentialities of their students. After visiting a dozen <UTfer«nt countries, halfway around the globe, Dr. Jones reported as many different systems of counseling slid likewise a dozen different results. A wide variation ip methods was found in the United States. In Europe counseling was largely an attempt to evaluate statistical results of examinations which students had taken. In the West Indies the general lack of counseling was reflected in uncertainties in the mindl of students. The schools which condu«& highly personal counseling with unhurried interviews and follow-ups hAve the best results, Dr. Jones said. Diplomatic approaches, sometimes involving the family, help toward a solution. Close relationship With the counselor often brings out a special skill or dominating ambitious hope which proves to be of prime importance in advising, the student.

If this indicated crop comes through it will be the second biggest in the state's history--well above last year's production of 492 million bushels and only 7 percent helow the record high 564 million bushels grown in 1948. Returns from the winter wheat harvest have been better than expected, as the average yield of 25 bushels per acre is the highest ever known in Illinois, and the estimated total production of 46 million bushels is the largest since 1931. No official forecast of soybean production will be issued until August, but current reports show the crop has adequate stands and good color. This year's planting for harvest is estimated as 3.5 million acres. '* • ' CIVIL DEFENSli:f*:V; ^ " The use of Illinois civil defense units is restricted by state law to real war emergencies <>r training for such war purposes, in making this announcement, state defense director Lenox R. Lohr pointed out that disaster relief, as such, is still a responsibility of the Military and Naval Department of Illinois. Civil defense workers may assist in time of natural disasters, such as floods, but only on a volunteer basis, Lohr added. Seil Conditioner A synthetic chemical that converts non-productive soil in a matter of hours instead of years or generations required by present methods was demonstrated in Philadelphia recently. The chemical--named Krilium-- is not a fertilizer. It is a soilconditioner that quickly restores the physical structure of the soil to the proper consistency, thus enabling the plants to obtain the optimum amounts of oxygen, water and nutrients from the soil. Extensive tests were carried out over the last three years by almost eighty soil scientists in various sections of the country. These experiments indicate that the new chemical will mark the beginning of a revolutionary era in agriculture, as a result of which manmade deserts may be turned in a short time into blooming gardens and green acres. God Is Tolerant "Has not God borne with you these many years? Be ye tolerant to others."--Hosea Ballou. Automobile Group Changes Policies A major shift in the American Automobile association's policy on federal aid to highways was made at a recent meeting of the organization'^ highway committee, Charles M. Hayes President of the Chicago Motor Club said this week. Hayes said that the group recommends that as long as the government persists in taxing motorists, the amount of federal aid funds should be equivalent to the sum collected in federal gasoline taxes. Never before, Hayes pointed out, has the motorists' organization made any recommendations as to the specific amount of federal aid that should be granted for use on highways. It has taken the view that Congress should decide what highway needs were. The club official said that the federal government collected more than . twenty-five million dollars in federal gasoline taxes in Illinois last year. This figure, he estimated, will leap to between forty and forty-five million dollars next year. In addition to tl|e policy change the committee is developing a new formula for the distribution of federal aid highway funds or the grounds that the present method is obsolete. At present distribution is based on area, population and miles of roads in a state. Yemen Hodeida on the Red Sea Is the principal port of the small Arab kingdom of Yemen. Ocean-going •hips unload several miles off Hodeida into small dhows which then sail into chest-deep waters where burly porters carry their cargoes to shore on head and shoulders.
