OPEN MEMORIAL DAY FROM 9am.TIL10 p.m. District 15 Perspectives i Youth Parade, Contest Features Of Milk Day LEARNING PLACES LIVING-FAMILY ROOM Reading Newspapers and Magazines Galore. Find The Letters-Find The Numbers. Get those scissors out and moving. Find certain letters and combinations of letters; the ads and headlines with their big, bold print are excellent targets. Have youngsters cut out the - ap­ pointed letters or words and paste them on shirt cardboards for all to see and admire. House Fillers. Here's an activity used in doctoral research. Children look in newspapers and magazines for pictures of household furniture and objects that belong in different rooms of a house. The large size newspaper sheet is divided into sections that are labeled living room or bedroom, etc. Children paste in the pictures of the furniture that fit into the different rooms. Picture Puzzles. Use those luscious, color magazine pictures for your own picture puzzle. Paste the bold pictures on shirt cardboards. Trace cut­ out lines, a few for young children, many for older youngsters and cut out the pieces. Save the parts in en­ velopes and use for put- together puzzle times. Phonics Bingo Games. Set up cardboard grids with beginning consonants on shirt card­ boards. Start with the easier ones: B. P. T, S. R, D, M. N, etc. Keep the grids simple at first, with perhaps three or (our letters. Call out the sounds for BINGO - use words, B~bat, R- rat, etc. Ask players to cover the letters called. Make the games more complex as child's skills grow. Writing Cartoon Cut-ups. Use comic strips to teach writing. Cut up the squares and ask children to rearrange them in logical or illogical sequence. Cut out the captions in the circles-the words the characters speak- and have the children fill in their own words This is good fun and good writing practice. Scrambled Sentences. Take those newspaper and magazine paragraphs and cut up the sentences, put into jumbled order and work together to rearrange these into logical order. This helps give children the feel of orderly progression of thoughts-beginning, middle, end - and conveys the "sense" of paragraphing. Mathematics Measure For Pleasure. The world is filled with things and space to measure: how tall is the lamp? how wide is the room? etc. Use yardsticks, tape measures, string - anything that can measure. Jot down the results to share with the family. Catalog Shopping Spree. Let's say you have $25 (hypothetical) to spend. How will you spend it? Look through a new or old mail order catalog and select your purchases, add them up, what have you left? have you overspent? How do other members of the family decide to spend their money? Compare and contrast pur­ chases. TV Watching Cue Me In. Use the TV schedule to make selections about what and when to watch: don't be an indiscriminate viewer. Have children make their choices to fill up an hour or two of their regular viewing. Stick to a time limit and if children are spending too many passive hours in front of the TV now, wean them away with a shorter and shorter time limit each week. Involving children in making choices about what they will watch cuts down their need to watch everything! TV And The World. Tie current events and map lore with TV watching. The daily news contains items from all over the world. By posting a world map next to the TV set, children can immediately look up references to world news spots. Keep reference books close by too -- books like the world almanac and dic­ tionaries. These offer tidbits of knowledge when children's curiosity is high. The Friday evening Youth parade will again begin the weekend activities of Har­ vard's annual Milk day celebration. The parade is scheduled to organize at 6:30 p.m.. with the line of march forming on West Front street between Starline and the Civic Building The parade will begin at 7 p.m. According to Wayne Pankonin, chairman, all en­ tries are welcome. There is no advance registration needed. All entrants simply sign up the evening of the parade. This year there will be ten categories for youngsters to choose from, which are: decorated wagons, dogs, tricycles and big wheels, doll buggies, cats and other small pets, comics, miniature floats, boys' bicycles, girls' bicycles, horses and other large animals. Pankonin stated that at the present time the plan is to have a Bicentennial theme for the Youth parade in keeping with the theme of the Milk day parade set for Saturday. Also scheduled for Friday evening's festivities is the Little Prince and Princess contest which has been so popular in past years. The judging will be held in the Civic building at 6 p.m. Chairman for this part of the event is Mrs. Margaret Kistler, who suggests that with this being the Bicentennial year, the colors of red. white and blue would be very appropriate The instructions for the con­ struction of the garments for the contestants are printed on the official entry blanks which are available from Mrs. Kistler For further in­ formation she may be con­ tacted at 5M3-4629 f OJ NEWS 1 Certain seriously disabled veterans may be eligible for a little-known Veterans ad­ ministration grant of up to $25,ooo for specially adapted "wheelchair homes", the VA reminded today The grant can be applied toward a new home or used to remodel an existing dwelling, the VA said, or it can be used to help pay off the balance owing on a home the veteran has modified at his own expense Under the law, eligible veterans may receive a VA grant of not more than 50 per cent of the cost of a specially adapted home up to the maximum of $25,000 Only those veterans are eligible who have suffered permanent and total service- connected disability due to the loss (or loss of use) of both legs: blindness, plus loss of use of one leg; or other injury which prevents them from moving from place to place Consumer Although the "energy crisis" of a few years ago seems almost ancient history to most of us, it is now more important than ever to think about con­ serving energy. Those long gas lipes may have disappeared, but the problem of how to supply enough energy to meet our ever-growing needs has not. Almost 20 per cent of all the energy consumed in the United States is used in our 70 million households. More than half of the energy we use in our homes goes into heating and cooling. Heating takes about 15 per cent. Lighting, cooking, N refrigeration and operating appliances account for the rest. As the warm weather gets closer, it's now time for you to start thinking of ways you can help save energy t ^ , ""Here are some "hot weather eQergy savers" from Celia Maloney, Governor's Con­ sumer Advocate: Set air-conditioning ther­ mostats no lower than 78 degrees. The 78 degree tem­ perature is judged to be reasonably comfortable and energy efficient. One authority estimates that if this setting raises the temperature 6 degrees (78 degrees vs. 72 degrees) home cooling costs should drop about 47 per cent. If everyone raised cooling thermostats 6 degrees during the summer, the nation would save more than the equivalent of 36 billion kilowatt hours of electricity or 2 per cent of the nation's total electricity con­ sumption for a year. Alert Run air-conditioners only on really hot days and set the fan speed at high. In very humid weather, set the fan at low speed to provide less cooling but more moisture removal. Clean or replace air- conditioner filters at least once a month. Turning the fan requires more electricity when the filter is dirty. If rooms are to be unoccupied for several hours, turn off the air-conditioning temporarily. Buy the cooling equipment with the smallest capicity to do the job. More cooling power than necessary is inefficient and expensive. Energy- efficiency ratios (EERs) for most air-conditioning units should be available from dealers and some window units are labeled to show the EER, (the higher the EER, the more efficient the air-conditioner.) If you don't see a label in the showroom, ask for the in­ formation. Deflect daytime sun with vertical louvers or awnings on windows, or draw draperies and shades in sunny windows. Keep windows and outside doors closed during the hottest hours of the day. Keep the lights low or off. Electric lights generate heat and add to the load on the air- conditioning equipment. Use vents and exhaust fans to pull heat and moisture from attics, kitchens, and laundries directly to the outside. (Have a consumer complaint?

Disabled veterans should consult their nearest VA office for mote detailed eligibility requirements, the VA cautioned. The law governing the wheelchair homes specifies that the veteran must be able to afford purchase of the housing unit, with the grant assistance, and it must be medically feasible for the veteran to reside there. To qualify for the grant, the housing unit must have at least two wheelchair ramps located so as to avoid fire hazards, doorways at least 36 inches wide, hallways of at least 48 inches width, specially equipped bathrooms, specially located electric swit»-»> • *nd outlets, an automatic smoke detector, and other features VA specialists in the field are available to assist eligible veterans in such steps as choosing a suitable lot for the housing unit, obtaining the services of an architect, ob­ taining construction bids and arranging necessary financing. The VA reminded interested veterans that some states provide special tax relief for owners of the so-called wheelchair home and that up to $30,000 life insurance it available to most veterans who receive the special housing grant to pay off the mortgage on such a home if the veteran died Come in today and save $3 off the regular gallon price of Olympic Redwood Stain.
