Governor's of­ fice, as well as other state agencies, really aware of the many problems of senior citizens? Are they making an effort to let senior citizens know how to solve their problems? A. The following facts clearly demonstrate that state government is becoming more responsive to the needs of senior citizens and is more effectively communicating the services available for assisting the elderly. There was an in­ crease of more than 16,000 telephone calls, letters and in- person requests for assistance at the two state-wide Senior Action Centers, operated by the Lt. Governor's Office, during 1978, compared to 1977. Cases reported in both offices in Chicago and Springfield totaled over 40,200 in 1978, compared to over 23,500 in 1977. A total of 12,950, seniors were served in 1976. In effect, we have served over three times as many seniors in 1978 as were served in 1976, while increasing the number of staff by only one person. The credit for this goes to more efficient management of communicating the services of the Senior Action Centers by the news media as well as to the assistance of the state departments on Aging and Revenue. Q. What, then, have you found out * to be the major problem areas shared by senior citizens? A. The problems which seniors report most frequently to the Senior Action Centers include tax rebates, such as the Circuit Breaker, housing, health, food and nutrition, transportation, and income maintenance. It is noteworthy that the Senior Action Centers are staffed by senior citizens who have developed an ex­ pertise in problems confronted by the elderly and the ap­ propriate means and available resources to resolve these problems where possible. The SAC's are not referral services. Staff members take down the nameft, addresses and telephone numbers of persons who calll for assistance and then make anywhere from one to three more telephone calls to find the solution to the senior problems. Staff members then get directly back in touch with the persons with the problems) and give them direct answers to their questions. Write or call Lieutenant Governor Dave O'Neal's Senior Action Centers at 160 N. LaSalle, Chicago, 111., 60601 or 3 West Old Town Mall, Springfield, 111., 62701 with questions or complaints about any government agency or program. This column will be covering the many questions senior citizens may have on various subjects. Call statewide: Toll Free Dial: 800 252-6565.

To comply with Illinois law and as a courtesy to other drivers, appropriate turn signals must be given. The Rules of the Road states that in a business or residential district you must give a con­ tinuous turn signal for at least 100 feet before turning, and in other areas the signal must be given at least 200 feet in ad­ vance. You may signal your in­ tentions either with electrical turn signals or with your left hand and arm. Always check the traffic behind and on your right or left, slow down, signal for the turn, and move into the correct turning lane. Yield right-of-way to pedestrians and vehicles in the intersection. The turn then may be completed. Signaling what you are going to do beforehand enables the drivers behind to go around vou rather than facing the possiblity of being stalled in your lane waiting for you to turn. Courtesy in this case not only enhances the traffic flow, but it also helps to avoid ac­ cidents. (A copy of the Rules of the Road will be sent to you upon request. Write to Alan J. Dixon, Secretary of State, Springfield, 111., 64756.) Energy Hogs The average American uses about eight times as much fuel energy as an average person anywhere else in the world.

Then as an adult, she suffered greatly and wandered through periods of doubt. Embittered, she broke all ties with her church. After she had retired as a schoolteacher and was liv­ ing in the West, someone gave her a book by Clovis Chappel, a nationally-known Methodist minister and author. In that book, Chap- pel had printed the poem this woman had written as a teen-ager. It amazed her that a contribution of hers could be sent out across the country and be a blessing to so many. She then wrote Dr. Chappel that this expe­ rience had led her back to "the faith I had known as a teen-ager when I had composed these verses." Unfor­ tunately, her letter was misplaced in Dr. ChappeFs files and her name is still unknown. I walked life's way with a careless tread, I followed where comfort and pleasure led; Till at last one day in a quiet place, I met my Master face to face. I'd reared my castles and built them high, Till their turrets touched the blue of the sky, And I'd vowed to rule with an iron mace -- When I met my Master face to face. I met Him and knew Him and blushed to see That His eyes in pity were fixed on me, And I faltered and fell at His feet that day, And my castles melted and vanished away. They melted and vanished, and in their place I saw naught else but the Master's face. And I cried aloud, "O make me meet To follow the path of their bruised feet!" My care is now for the souls of men. I've lost my life to find it again, E'er since that day, in a quiet place, I met my Master face to face. R. J. Hastings is editor of The IUinois Baptist in Springfield Heartworm Avoidable Many dogs annually fall victim to canine heartworm disease. If undetected, the disease can lead to heart and lung damage and even death, warn the Illinois State Veterinary Medical association and the American Heartworm society. For years the disease was found primarily along the eastern seaboard and gulf state regions. The society reports that today the disease is found in every state east of the Rocky mountains and even in some Pacific coastal areas. The disease is present in almost all mosquito infested areas. Canine heartworm disease is caused by long white worms - Dirofilaria immitis. The in­ fective larvae are spread from dog to dog by mosquitoes. The disease can reach advanced stages and even cause death, before signs are apparent to the owner. The disease can be detected by a blood test. Sometimes a veterinarian uses x-rays, repeated blood tests and other laboratory tests to confirm the presence of the worms. Most infected dogs can be treated successfully. While there is some risk involved in treating a dog for heartworms, fatal reactions are rare in otherwise healthy dogs. Prevention is the best medicine. Your veterinarian is familiar with the extent of the problem locally. The society recommends that dogs should be regularly examined and started on a preventative program. < For more information, send a stamped, self-addressed, business size envelope to the Illinois State Veterinary Medical Association, 921 N. Lake St., Aurora, 111., 60506, and ask for the free booklet, "What You Should Know About Canine Heartworm Disease." HOMEOWNERS NEED CONCRETE? No Long Delay. Sat. Service Available.

They grow especially well in gravelly or sandy soils, or in sunny corners of the gar­ den that receive little care and attention. Mexican zinnias are patterned like native blankets, in shades of cream, yellow and gold marked with red, maroon and burgundy. Blossoms are rather small (2 to 2'/i inches in diameter) but numerous. Plants of Mexican zinnias are low growing, 12 to 16 inches in height,, and bush out to form flowering mounds. The leaves are much narrower than those of standard zin­ nias and lose less water to evaporation. This explains the drought tolerance of Mex­ ican zinnias. The long-stemmed blossoms of Mexican zinnias make ex­ cellent cut flowers and will hold in bouquets for 5 to 7 days. 385 t*SS ONLY *8" RENTAL • NO installation charge • NEW fully automatic softeners • TWO year option to buy with • FULL rental fee deducted • ONE phone call can answer any questions 312-259-3393 No. 1 in the Fox Volley Area Copyright 1978 \
