Our state ,ls di- Into fifty-one senatorial e&ch of which is ento send one senator and representatives to our Illi- General Assembly. In 1901, phWi our state was last apporttatted (or divided up) into sent$ orlal districts, each of the flftbHme districts was about YfUa! In population. The Eighth Senatorial district .(consisting of L a k e , M c H e n r y a n d B o o n e Waiflttes) had a total population •f 80,000 in 1901. At that time 61st district, located at the; them tip of the state, was tly more populous with 84,-; souls. In 1901 each of the* Cook county senatorial districts had an average population of Abotft 96,000. But what a change the last SO years have wrought! The 8th district has a present population if more than 250,000, while the list district, which was larger than the 8th district in 1901, has dwindled to a mere 73,000. Today four districts in Cook county have less than 50,0t>0 population each (the 17th contains a mere 85,000 people,) whereas the 7th district has a population of more than 700*000. Now, what js wrong with this rituation? Well, for one thing, the citizens of tile 7th senatorial district have only one-twentieth the voice of those citizens of the 17th district. It Is hardly representative government for one group of citizens to have representation so far out of proportion to another group. Our forefathers foresaw the great inequalities which would result from population changes unless the state should be reapportioned at frequent intervals. Accordingly, it was provided in the Illinois Constitution of 1870 (Article VI) that "The general Assembly shall apportiton the state every ten years beginning with the year 1871 by ftvifUng the population of the state by the number 51." Since 1901 this constitutional mandate has been flouted. Downstate legislators have opposed reapportionment fearing that down state might lose "control" of the General Assembly. Members elected from the small " p o c k e t " d i s t r i c t s In Cook county have been content to maintain the status quo being apprehensive that they could not be re-elected from more populous areas. Many others are opposed to any change in the pre seht boundaries of their districts for, sentimental and other rearepresentation allocated to a PrAAvo flonlfpH district of only a few thousand I persons. If we are to have more KAffiri-Dlsh FOOuSf equitable representation, without j IMLUlll A the threat to the public interest' If there's an unfamiliar emptithat comes with political donii- ness in your home freeaer, why nation by an intensely populated j not give main-dish combinations area, I recommend that you give j a bid . for the spot ? Ones like serious attention to giving the baked beans, beef or veal stew, people an opportunity to choose i chicken a'la king, Italian rice, a. plan scmewhat similar to that which so well served the nation's interest when devised by our founding fathers." The press has advocated that the legislature should act upon this question at the present session of the General Assembly. With such pressures it is quite likely that the Illinois General Assembly will do something about senatorial reapportionment. Various plans and means' of senatorial reapportionment will be devised. These will be - discussed in a later installment. Y A N K E AUCTION WILLIAM H.

It should take 45 or 50 Spanish sausage, and tomato sauce with meat balls. You'll find plenty of need for them during the remaining short, but busy, winter days. To freeze the foods mentioned prepare them in your usual ways, but shorten the cooking time for mopt of them. Meat and vegetables should be cooked until barely tender. They'll soften further during cooling, freezing and reheating, and you wiH have avoided loss of flavor and aroma by the unnecessary cooking. If you plan to freeze stew, or other combinations that include potatoes, remember that cooked potatoes develop a poor texture once they are frozen, so it's better to cook them when, you prepare the food fpr serving, and add them then.

Whether you are big or little, you need energy to work and enjoy life. That energy can come" only from calories furnished by food. Today, good diet has an indirect enemy--the calorie--because some folks forget that a key to healthful living is balanced eating. So much is said aoout hazards of overweight that the food needs of the under? weightlpfezsoh or the energetic youngster are overlooked. Extreme thinness, though fashionable, is a real hazard., It is easy enough to see the results of too many calories. Likewise a lack of calories is evident before the lack of proteins or any one of the vitamins or minerals sounds a warning. Undereating leads to nervousness, irritability, loss of appetite, indigestion, listlessness, lack of vitality and lowered resistance. The eenneerrggyy to live comes from food and the amount of energy s by that food is measured in terms of calories. Actually, food is fue i"£ lied uels and* his movements / restricted.

Illinois law specifically prohibits driving an overcrowded vehicle and in addition it prohibits riding in a vehicle in such a position thAt it will interfere with the driver's view or control over the driving mechanism. (Section 93, Uniform Act Regulating Traffic.) be they gasoline or apple pie, put the "go" in your car or your body. Your age, how hard you work physically, and your size decide how many calories you need. Too many calories go to waste, on your waist. Fats give about twice as many calories as do sugars, starches or proftelns. Foods high in fat have a nigh calorie count. Some foods, such as a few fruits and vegetables, due to their large amounts of cellulose and Water are very low in calories. Nutritionists consider bread and lean meat as having in-between calorie values. Calories from enriched bread and cereals are economical sources of energy.
