Shuffleboard Tournament: Tuesday, July 8, 1975, 1:00- 4:00; Ages 6-15, City Park Dollars And Good Sense By William J. Martin In recent columns, I've discussed some general rules for getting the best value for your clothing dollar. These principles apply to every member of the family, but children's clothing deserves special attentiW Children's clothing is usually replaced, not because of style changes or because they wore out, but because children grow so fast. So it is usually a waste of money to invest in super- durable clothing unless you plan t« hand it down to other children in the family. It's often best to stick to the basics for every day wear - jeans, slacks, t-shirts and sweaters. And be sure that everything you buy is machine washable. If you can, bring your child along when you buy. Youngsters develop their own tastes for colors and styles and, if you buy something they don't like, chances are they won't wear it. You might also want to look into children's exchanges. Glen Gabriel in Oklahoma for a week. He had an interesting, flight trip back.

Because of certain activities, they can be considered "political committees," and, as such, have to fulfill certain requirements under the law. The Campaign Financing act went into effect last year in Illinois and is administered by the State Board of Elections. Other states have similar laws and there is also a federal act covering campaign disclosure. These laws were enacted because the general public demanded to know certain financial information about candidates, elected officials and\individuals and groups who are financially involved in political campaigns. The Illinois act is so far-- reaching that it often involves people who do not know they re covereB. Since the Illinois law contains criminal penalties for violations, the State Board of Elections urges all citizens to familiarize themselves with the provisions of the Act. For example: Anyone who has given, collected or spent over $1,000 over a twelve-month period that may be ultimately spent for a candidate for political office must file a report: This might include the collection Of union dues by a local union steward if more than $1,000 of the money he collects iiltimately may go to a can didate. Or, it might include persons hosting get-togethers . for a candidate. * Or, anyone who has con tributed over $t,000 to a civic organization which may become a "political com mittee!' if the organization becomes invoJ.veii -in any question of public policy to be submitted^ to the voters in Illinois. , Thfese persons or^individuals are "political committees" under the Act. r „ • To Cojnply with the law, extensive records must be kept in <some cases and reports of expenditures and income to and from people, in the, aggregate of more than $150 must be filed. Filing must be made at the State Board of Elections of fices. There are many more aspects to the Campaign Financing act and, if you have any questions, call your State Board of elections.
