'All pedestrians should never take the dangerous attitude that it is entirely upon the shoulders of the motorist to protect the pedestrian. It's a two-way street and the person on foot must always heed the regulations, too. The safe, alert pedestrian will never jaywalk. He must cross the street at the proper point, at the intersection, or in a marked crosswalk. Afr-those corners which have traflte signal lights, the safety conscious pedestrian will proceed. Jo cross only when the light shows that it is entirely safe to do so. He should never leave anything to the imagination even when the signals show that it is correct to cross at that time. He should look both ways before he steps oiT the cwrb. WliftP walking along country roads,,the safety conscious pedestrian will always walk on the left hand side of the road, afc«.i»Jft oncoming traffic, and will sleji off the highway when vehicles approach. When walking afbng country roads at dusk or at night, he should carry, a light or display something white. A copy of the "Rules of the Road" will be sent to you free and promptly upon request. Write to Paul Powell, Secretary of State, Springfield, Illinois.

BAD MANNERS "Dear Editor: "Every once in a while a situation occurs to make me get up on my so-called "soapbox" and sound off. It seems to me the timie has come again. "About two years ago I wrote to the pubic pulse concerning the situation at the local theater. Things seemed to calm down at the time, and like a person will, I forgot about it. However, OUT children have never been allowed to attend the show alone on Friday night. "After speaking to Mr. Cdnsago, I have learned that if anything, the damage by ieighth graders, freshmen and sophomores is worse than ever before. Damage to seats and plumbing has run over $350 irt the last few weeks. "What has happened to the parents of today when they fail to teach their children respect for other people's property? The show is not, and never will be, a cheap babysitting service. It's a public service for all who may want to enjoy, a .good show, without the fear of teen-agers tearing the place apart -- or the show stopped in the middle because they don't know how to behave. "Maybe we are old-fashioned parents, but we firmly plant discipline where it hurts the most. Our children are not molly-coddled or pampered because they, as we, feel they like to know where they stand, what's right or wrong, and how to respect elders as well as other people's property.

To find the answers, American enterprise-through the National Association of Manufacturers-- has launched the program called STEP (Solutions To Employment Problems). STEP is searching America to find proven solutions to employment problemsachieved by private enterprise, self-help and local action. Reported solutions are carefully verified, written up in case study form, then made widely available without charge. Example: the STEP case study which shows how private enterprise in Bedford, Ohio and the Bedford High School started a program to teach industrial skills in demand in the local (irea. Working from a^fu^l plans of praiuctji; iaajle/ btf Bedford companies, and lising over one million dollars worth of equipment contributed by locar firms,, the students showed great interest and aptitude: the school's dropout rate was cut tio half the national average; and every graduate has found a job.

Even though I am over 65, what good' will it dd for me to call at the Social Security office? A} You should contact your local Social Security representative immediately because you may be eligible for Medicare evert If you do not have a Social Security number. Fall* ure to complete an application oh time' could rtesult In lost protection for at least two years. Q) I am a widow age . 57;? I was previously told by the Social Security Administration I would not be eligible for Social Security benefits until age 62. Would the new changes in the law permit me to draw monthly benefits .? A) Before September, 1065, a widow without children in her care could not receive monthly checks prior to age 62. Now, because of the changes, a widow can choose to start her benefits at age 60 at a reduced amount. As you are 57 years old, we are sorry to inform you no benefits would be payable at this time. Q) My uncle is a minister and has never ^signed up to come under Social Security. Do you have any information about ministers under Social Security? A) The 1965 Amendments have extended the time a minister may elect Social Security coverage. He may obtain protection under Social Security by signing a waiver certificate with the Internal Revenue Service by April 15, 1966. Q) Under Medicare, can I choose my own doctor or select the hospital I am to be treated in? A) Yes, there are no restrictions whatever in the law regarding choice of physician or hospital. Your J own doctor will probably make this choice for you as he may be on the staff of one of several accredited hospitals. Q) In October, 1965, I received an enrollment card for Medicare. I put the card aside Vis I wanted to find out more about the program. I now find that I misplaced or lost this card. What should I do? A) The Waukegan office has received numerous requests similar to yours. We suggest you contact your local Social Security office for another card. In addition, anyone having a particular question about Medicare should not hesitate to contact one of our representatives or write us for free booklets covering the new changes in the prgram. Q) My insurance agent tells me that I should not drop my health insurance policy because of Medcare. Is he right? A) Yes, individuals should not drop their present Insurance as , protection could be lost by a hasty decision. Remember that coverage under Medicare is not effective until July 1, 1966. Q) My son's Social Security benefits stopped when , he reach&d 18 in November, 1964. He graduated from .high school in May and started college in September, 1964. Can his benefits be started again? A) Yes, however, you need to file a new application. Since your son was attending a fulltime school from January through May of 1965, his benefits can be started with January, 1965 the month this part of the law became effective.

And believe me, when measles strikes adults, really strike hard. ' Why? Because measles is a virus disease which can make one highly susceptible to such serious and sometimes fatal complications as bronchitis and pneumonia. While most of these complications are caused by seconary infections, the measles virus itself may produce encephalitis,. a disease which primarily attacks the brain. Result? Mental retardation. In fact, each year over 3,000 victims of measles encephalitis are doomed to spend their lives in, mental institutions. • Fortunately, measles very rarely strikes twice. If you've had a bout with it, the disease has probably conferred immunity for life. However, if you're among the 10 million American adults who have never been exposed, you may have NO resistance to it, should an epidemic arise. Since measles epidemics tnay, occur ..as. frequently as every other year in large cities, and ever four or five years in small communities, very fewincluding the elderly--can escape it during their lifetime. However, with today's measles vaccine, these epidemics could be eliminated. Of the two types of measles vaccines, the live vaccine --in a single dose -- may confer lifetime immunity. But it is not recommended for some: pregnant women; those with chronic diseases; persons taking certain drugs, such as cortisone or radiatipn treatments;, ihdividuals who have recently r e c e i v e d s i g n i f i c a n t ' a m o u n t s Of gamma globulin; and anyone allergic to eggs or egg products (eggs are used in making live virus vaccine). Should these groups be especially prone to develop serious complications from possible exposure to the disease, there is a second vaccine --r the so-called killed Vaccine *-- which may give temporary immunity. Made from an inactiviated virus, it is administered in three doses at monthly intervals, and requires periodic booster shots - Neither of these vaccines work against German measles, which--though normally harmless-- threatens unborn babies with deformity or death. Between its killing and crippling effects, measles has been a more serious disease than polio ever was. And when you consider that measles, like polio, may be prevented with vaccine, even the loss of a single life is unnecessary. When a man thinks he's having trouble supporting his wife, he should try NOT supporting her for a while. *Cook It Yourself" Main Promotes Lively Party 3 Out of the cold and into your warm kitchen come you and your caroling friends . . . your appetites whetted by walking and singing in the crisp, wintry night.
