FIVE MAJOR RELIEF PROGRAMS IN AUGUST TOTALLED $11,242,857 FUl up the cookie jar, mother, and let hungry youngsters eat their fill when they troop home from school. These apple sauce cookies are particularly good for children because they are not too rich, not too sweet. They won't spoil appetites for supper. Yet they have an apple flavor children like; and they are extra nutritious because made with apple sauce. The apple sauce that comes in cans or jars is used for it's quick, convenient, and always ready. Also--a big point--only the freshest of fresh apples ever get into canned apple sauce. Along with the cookies, serve chilled apple juice. Tangy, e.i ' delicious, and healthful, the children will gd for it in a big way---specially if they can sip it through straws, from tall glasses. In {act, it's a good idea to keep several cans or bottles of apple juice always on hand in the refrigerator. Then thirsty young ones (and older ones, too) can help themselves any time.

When the Frost is on the Pumpkin The total outlay tor Illinois' five major relief programs in August amounted to $11,242,857, Garrett W. Keaster, executive secretary of the Illinois Public Aid Commission, reported this past week. Grants were made to 262,99^ persons, a decline of 1.6 per cent f:0m the previous month. *Tot?r payments, however, were sli^hth igher because of increased allowances to meet higher living costs. General assistance (direct relief) dropped 2,800 persons from its rolls during August due chiefly, Keaster said, to recovery from the effects of the steel strike, bringing the total number down to 57,964, which was 2.7 per cent below the relief load of August, 1951. General assistance payments amounting to $2,067,- 225 were lower than the previous month although the average grant of $35.66 per person was a little higher, than the- July average. Old age pensioners for August numbering 114,518 represented a 0.2 per cent decline from the previous month and a 2.0 per cent reduction from the corresponding month last year. Pension payments of $6,145,474 were somewhat higher than last month due to further inroads in the payment of accumulated medical bills. Old age pension payments averaged $53.66 per person. The aid to dependent children caseload of 82,865 person^ represented a decline of 1,250 recipients from July. Dependent children grants for the month totaled $2,570,515, a reduction of $78,998 from July costs. The average payment was $31.02 per person. Keaster attributed the decrease in the dependent children rolls and assistance costs to the success of the commission's program to encourage and asisist teen-age boys and girls in aid to dependent children families throughout Illinois in obtaining part time jobs during the summer vacation. Blind assistance resumed ita ^ownward trend in August with a total of 4,075 blind persons receiving aid at a cost in assis- Tfcur*dBy, Oeiob«r 23, 19SS " i- .... tanoe payments of $1133^40.
