YOU DON'T NEED LUCK When the driving conditions are going from bad to worse, it's going to take a lot more than good luck to pull you through. That's why every fgfl ||J Subaru comes equipped J ̂ H with front wheel drive. You see, front wheel drive puts the weight of the engine over the drive wheels. Which leads to better handling and stability. And because Subaru has a lower center of gravity it also provides Detter traction. What all this means is that in a front wheel drive Subaru neither snow, nor rain, nor sleet will keep you from making your ap­ pointed rounds.

Many home fires are caused by defective heating equipment. Underwriters Laboratories (UL), a leader in fire safety, suggests that a properly maintained and well- adjusted furnade will decrease fire hazards and provide need­ ed warmth during the cold winter ahead. Defective heat­ ing equipment can cause fire and asphyxiation. The following rules are suggested by UL, done reg­ ularly to keep heating equip­ ment in top running order: (1) Replace disposable-type air filters when dirty -- look for UL Listing Mark on re­ placements. Permanent-type wash in mild soap and water eliminating dust. (2) Make certain the room thermostat is free of dust and correctly set. (3) Check warm air outlet registers and all air return openings, make sure they are not covered by rugs, drapes, curtains or other materials of this nature. (4) Keep furnace area clear of combustible materials. (5) Clean and inspect hum­ idifier. UL recommends that a qualified serviceman make tiie following inspections and service at the start of every heating season: (1) Rid combustion cham­ ber and firebox area of accu­ mulated scale, and inspect for cracks or openings in combus­ tion chamber and heat ex­ change -- looking for perfora­ tions which might leak com­ bustion products into circulat­ ing air. (2) Inspect flue pipe con­ nections between furnace and chimney. CORRECTION . "I inaccurately wrote in Wednesday's Public Pulse that $100,000 would be saved by the high school district if it went to double- shifts at West campus and closed East campus. "I also implied that the school district has done nothing about reducing the budget this year. "Neither of those statements is true, and I sincerely hope that no one votes 'no' on the tax referendum Saturday because they believe either of the two statements.

In Girl Scouting a camp awaits each girl who is in­ terested in outdoor program activities. The Sybaquay Girl Scout council owns and operates three camp sites and this past summer a total of 2,913 girls participated in the three styles of Girl Scout camping. A total of 303 girls attended Pokonokah Hills, the 720-acre resident camp at New Auburn, Wis., (40 miles N.E. of Eau Claire). Four twelve-day sessions offered campers a variety of opportunities to learn new skills and other camp activities. Guided by a carefully selected and trained staff the camp program is well balanced and aims to help girls deepen their self awareness, learn to relate to others, develop values, and to con­ tribute to the camp society. Highlights of summer '77 were the Red Cross Water Safety program which included canoeing, swimming, and sailing; backpacking and a renewed interest in camping skills culminating in "roughing it easy trips;" making butter, bread, and jelly; and arts projects like battiking, tie dying, macrame, photo developing, and candle making. Nineteen camps staffed by 543 volunteer adults made day camping happen for 2,263 Sybaquay council Girl Scouts. TTie program emphasis was on outdoor cooking. This included teaching campers how to plan their menus, prepare their food, and clean up. Along with the Girl Scouts, a total of 139 non-Scouts participated in the summer day camp program. The third style of Girl Scout camping is Core staff troop camping. A total of 208 girls with thirty-three adults com­ prising twenty-six patrols participated in Core camp this past summer. The four-day, three-night sessions were held at Chapman Hills, a 105-acre camp site near East Troy, Wis. Camping is an important part of Girl Scouting. The World of the Out-of-Doors is one of five different interest areas around which Girl Scout program activities are grouped The World of the Out-of-Doors is designed to help each girl understand, appreciate, and protect the natural world. A camping program in tune with today is the vehicle which provides the way for this to happen. The Sybaquay council is partially supported by United Ways and Community Chests. It provides the Girl Scout program for girls in Lake, Cook, Kane, DuPage, McHenry, DeKalb, and LasSalle counties.
