Campers have shared the responsibility with the staff for planning a program that has proven to be varied, educational and most im­ portantly FUN A team of carefully selected staff from Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Louisiana have joined forces to help every girl find a "piece of the action." Whether it has been setting up and operating the camp weather station (the accuracy of which equals any meteorologist), rigging a sailboat for a solo sail, a 5 a m celebration of the sun rise on the "high hill" or sharing the chores of daily camp life, it has all been a growing experience. In addition to activities planned by campers and staff, the council has continued previous camp programs. The GROK program, an environmental project allowing campers to "grow, reach, observe and know" the world around them continues to be an annual highlight of each session's activities In this project, campers "feel" the out of doors, absorbing it in its various moods, bouncing on a bog, taking apart a bird's nest and trying to put it back together again or using all her senses to explore the out-of- doors in the dark. As her senses expand so do her horizons-she v comes to discover the in- terdependency of life and realize that she does have a responsibility to protect her environment as a commitment to her future; our future. Cooperation with the State of Illinois' Title 20 project has continued. This program makes it possible for children dependent on Public Aid funds to grow and learn from a camping experience and to be year round members of the Girl Scout organization. There were two special op­ portunities for high school age campers this summer. Eight girls and two staff enjoyed canoeing in the Canadian boundary waters--the culmination of previous years of preparation at Pokonokah Hills A new project designed to help teen age girls develop leadership skills for use in future years as camp coun­ selors was undertaken with the Girl Scouts of Northwest Cook county. Elk Grove Village and the Abraham Lincoln center, Chicago. The "Ladders to Leadership" girls participated in program leadership at both Camp Pokonokah Hills and Camp Norwesco Some Wheat Not Eligible For Early Reserve Entry Outsid* McHenry and Lak* I County J! .WV*.VW*1W ̂ Secretary of Agriculture Bob Bergland said he does not in­ tend to authorize early entry of 1978-crop wheat into the far­ mer-owned grain reserve at this time At the same time, the secretary urged wheat farmers to put their 1978-crop under government loans so that they >H° Hv° AfOjy MlC* *A\, * O l / can participate in the reserve program when their loans mature Under the program, farmers first put their grains under a Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) loan or sign a purchase agreement with CCC. When the loan matures or the purchase date arrives, these farmers can then place this grain into the reserve With regard to last year's crop, Bergland said farmers with 1977-crop wheat under loan should investigate the advantages of the Reserve Program before deciding to either redeem or forfeit these outstanding loans 1977-crop wheat currently under price support loan or purchase agreement is eligible for im­ mediate entry into the reserve. Approximately 130 million bushels remain under loan from last year's crop. More than 370 million bushels of 1976- Deaths AGNES F. HARALSON An auto accident claimed the life of Agnes F.

Depart­ ment of Health, Education, and Welfare-Social Security Ad­ ministration ) Q. If I take a part-time job, how will my salary affect my SSI payments? I'm 65 and I don't have any other income. A. In determining a person's SSI payment amount, not all income is counted. If a person (or couple) has no other income apart from earnings, $85 a month of the earned income is ignored, and $1 is deducted from the basic SSI payment for each additional $2 of earnings. Q, My wife and I get SSI payments. We recently took in a child and get foster care payments for her. Do they count as income under SSI? . A. Foster care payments for a child who is not eligible for SSI payments but who has been placed in an SSI recipient's household by an approved agency are not counted in determining the amount of the recipient's income for SSI purposes Q I never worked long enough under Social Security to be entitled to Medicare hospital insurance, so I'm thinking of buying it. How much is the monthly hospital insurance premium now? A. The basic hospital in­ surance is $63 a month for the 12-month period starting July 1, 1978. This premium represents the current cost of Medicare hospital insurance protection. Under the law, the hospital insurance premium cannot be changed more often than once a year Q. Since there is a five month waiting period before Social Security disability benefits can be paid, does this mean a person has to wait five months before he can apply. A. No. The five month waiting period means that no benefits can be paid for the first five months of disability. The first payment is for the sixth full month. If a person is disabled more than six full months before he or she ap­ plies, back benefits may be payable, but not before the sixth full month of disability. Q. Does Medicare pay for treatments by a chiropractor? A. Medicare medical in­ surance helps pay for only one kind of treatment furnished by a licensed and Medicare- certified chiropractor. The only treatment that can be covered is manual manipulation of the spine to correct a subluxation that can be demonstrated by X- ray. Medical insurance does not pay for any other diagnostic or therapeutic services, in­ cluding X-rays, furnished by a chiropractor. Q. Where does the money for SSI payments come from? A. Even though the Social Security Administration operates the SSI program, Social Security funds are not used to finance SSI payments The money to make SSI payments comes from general funds of the U.S. Treasury. Q. Do disabled people have to take rehabilitation services to be eligible for SSI disability benefits? A. Disabled and blind people who apply for SSI payments are considered for rehabilitation services. Unless there is a good reason for refusal, they must accept vocational services, if they are offered, in order to be eligible for SSI payments.
