Tickets for the banquet and Samuelson's speech are available at the business office at MCC or from the Farm Bureau at 11909 McConnell road, in Woodstock. The open house with many displays of interest to both city residents and farm families will run all day on Sunday, March 18 at MCC. The sponsors of Spring Green are welcoming EPA Sewer Grants During the six month period ending Dec. 31,1978, the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) awarded $2,563,836 to local governments for new construction or im­ provements to waste treatment plants. EPA director Michael P. Mauzy said the grants, given through the Illinois Anti- Pollution Bond fund, were offered in an effort to control water pollution. "The grants also created new jobs and improved the economic growth opportunities," said Mauzy.

Systems and components on the market today include solar assisted heat pumps, domestic hot water modules and solar collectors for heating the entire home. « > Candy Dept. Special buy.
