Comp troller George Lindberg said in his monthly financial report. On Oct 18. the cash balance in the state's general funds was $23 million, Lindberg said, an amount representing less than what the state spends on an average working day. "If the school reimbursement had not been split and had been paid out in September in a $164 million package, the state would have been temporarily out of business with a $100 million backlog in unpaid bills right now." Lindberg said. "The fact that the state has a positive balance today con firms the success of the cooperation in the spring legislative session by the Governor, the Comptroller and the General Assembly' . _ Wmrnm 4 This hearty Baked Potato Salad reminds us that the new crop of Washington State Russets has been harvested and is filling the markets. This year's supply is as abundant as ever. The dry climate, fertile soil and plentiful-water supply unique to Eastern Washington are the reasons for the excellent quality and large size of the crop. Moist chunks of cooked Washington Russets are flecked with bits of green pepper, celery and green onions, then coated with a savory oil-vinegar dressing. As the salad bakes, the flavors blend together artd the potatoes absorb the tang of the dressing. Baked Potato Salad will be a welcome addition to Indian Summer barbecues or a complement to crisp-weather meats such as baked ham, pork chops or meat loaf.

McHenry. "The spread-out in school reimbursement payments, under which the schools are being compensated for any lost interest, is a key point in my plan of June 10 to balance the state budget and stop a tax hike." Lindberg said The Comptroller also reported that the state com pleted its fiscal '76 budget year with an on-paper balance of $62 million in the red. On June 30. the last day of FY 76. there was $126 million in the treasury, an amount less than the $188 million in added bills that came in during the three month lapse period during which bills from fiscal '76 still could be paid "What it means is that for the first time in at least 30 years, the state ended a fiscal year with a negative budgetary balance. If the state had gone out of business on June 30. there would have been $62 million in bills that never got paid." Lindberg said.

Coffee and cookies will be served. Everyone is welcome to attend d fatter forOm home. No cookies Goodness, like love, is by choice. You can't command someone to be "good," any more than you can order some one to love you. (Imagine a parent saying, "Now, listen to me. I want you to love me and I don't mean maybe.") Neither can we guarantee that if a person knows the difference in right and wrong, he will always choose the right. Remember that forbidden fruit is sweeter. If Mike is warned to stay out of the cookies, Mike is suddenly hungrier than ever! If the speed limit is 55 MPH, there's something that makes us want to accelerate to at least 60. When Mark Twain learned the Boston public library had banned Huckleberry Finn from its shelves, he took it as good news. Twain now knew the public would want his book more than ever. This principle is recognized in the Bible. Romans 7:7 says, "I had not known sin, except through the law: for I had not known coveting, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet." To illustrate, let's make up a story about a young cou ple and their first baby. They're so proud and determined to shelter him from every evil influence. So they construct an incubator for him, where the humidity, temperature, food supply, etc., will be rigidly controlled the rest of his life. No germs will get to him. Nor will he ever be tempted or influenced by the wrong crowd. Theirs will be a perfect youngster - or so they think. Foj; if you come back in only a few years, you'U find his little body and limbs grotesquely twisted. A youngster demands room to grow, both physically and morally. Box ing a person in only denies him the risk of making choices. I say the risk of making choices, for there's always a risk in deciding for one's self. But without choice, there can be no growth. No, not even love. R. J. Hastings is editor of The Illinois Baptist in Springfield ^>7ZrTT7rnrZ!ZZZZZZr2ZZ27ZZZ22Z22Z; SAVE BIG illlfi & mj. BRAND NEW 1976 SKYHAWK - - >• AUTO. TRANS., PWR.
