The research and educational Inundation of UCP has awprdcrl a $32,000 ^rant 1O the American Academy for Cerebral Palsy, national professionil organization of physician^ nd surgeons, for the first ar of the study, Mrs, Miller id. She pointed out that such a ! idy will be of tremendous ferest to every parent with a Elmer B<>rcov;m is shown u>in^ a I vim marbinr ;it the local post office. This machine will wrap twine around this packet of letters twice and tie a neatly tight bow tanot in one second. The top of the packet has a facing slip With the name of a city and state on it. If it is made up of all pieces for one address, the slip will so state. Elmer throws this packet into one of the twenty sacks to his left depending upon which train or sectional center for which it is intended. Sometimes he has as many as forty different sacks in which to throw. Mr. Borcovan joined the poet office in Chicago in 1950. He worked in railway posts, offices as a dispatch clerk and Earned his way up the ladder into the personnel division. In order to enjoy country living and the beauty of McHenry, he voluntarily took a reduction of two levels in position to join the McHenry force. He is invaluable in a distribution position here. His wife, Pat, makes a happy home life for Elmer, herself, two boys and a girl. Both are active in the Eastwood Manor Property Owners association and the' V.F.W., where Elmer wa$ a member of the color gaurd for years. Space does not pecmlt to tell all the knowledge Elm must possess to hold his present position and to have served in past positions. He is an interesting walking post office as to experience and ability. Here is one man's job that would be easier and faster if everyone used correct addresses and 'ZIP code numbers. For an interesting conversation, stop and ask Elmer about his postal experiences in the many phases he has served in. He may even slip in a Navy experience or two.

Many have failing eyesight, deafness, stiffening of the joints and muscles, diminished sense of smc'll and other physical failings. According to the National Safety Council such failings contribute annually to thousands of accidental home deaths. Nearly 15,000 persons more than tt5 years of age die each year in home accidents. About 11,300 are victims of falls. Fire burns and other deaths associated with fires account for about 1,500 deaths a year. Accidental poisonings, too, are a bi ; problem among oldsters. How can you help keep senior citizens safe? To prevent falls, the Council said: 1. Increase the amount of light on stairs. Put a light by an oldster's bed. 2. Remove slipping and tipping hazards. 3. Install hand rails and grab bars in bathroom and hallway. 4. Make sure there's a clear path from bed to door. Burns and fire deths can be prevented by: 1. Following manufacturer's directions for installing and operating home heating equipment. 2. Making sure older persons know the best escape route from the house. 3. Working out a plan for family members to aid an oldster in case of emergency. 4. Installing a homt fire alarm for early warning. Poisonings can be .prevented, the Council said, if people will take these precautions: 1. Store internal and external medicines on different shelves in the medicine cabinet. 2. Store household cleaning agents away from food or seasonings. 3. Keep just one night's supply of medicine by the bed. That way, there's no chance of an over-dose.
