Z ip„ was first proclaimed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1938 to rally public support for programs to enhance the nation's wildlife population. The importance of preserving wildlife habitat- areas where wild creatures can find food,water, cover.and a place to raise their young-will be' em­ phasized this yeatfT ac­ cording to Dr. Frederick R. Scroggin, of Dry Ridge, Ky., president of the National Wildlife federation, which sponsors the annual event. The 1980 National Wildlife week poster animals are two voting red foxes, photographed for the NWF by Brian Milne, of Thunder Bay. Ontario. On the reverse . of the four-color poster Mark Trail, the conservationist hero of a nationally- syndicated cartoon strip, explains what "Save A Place For Wildlife" means, with illustrations by artists Ed Dodd and Jack nfilrod, creators of the cartoon character.Morethan 800,000 copies of this poster will be mailed to Wildlife week participants. The NWF, which-has 4.1 million members and sup­ porters, will also distribute 597,000 copies of a second poster, which bears color photographs of 16 species of wildlife with information on each animal in English and Spanish backing up the pictures. Teachers across the country, as well as in Guam, Puerto Rico.and the Virgin Islands, will receive 394,000 Wildlife week education kits, which contain posters, ac­ tivity booklets, and badges. Youngsters will receive 65,000 smaller student kits. "Habitat is the key to a healthy and abundant wildlife population,' said MCHENRY HEARING AID Salts tRtpnrs ALL MAKES LOW PRICES!

"Without habitat, there would be no wildlife." "But," Dr. Scroggin continued, "as our demands for more homes, more food, and more energy continue to mount, we are putting ever-increasing pressure on our remaining wildlife habitat. In some places, we are needlessly and recklessly desroying wildlife habitat. "One of the big challenges of the 1980s is to settle the conflicts between our own needs and the needs of our wildlife. We must save a place for wildlife." Safety Hints BBBBBBBPOOOW By Alan J. Dixon Secretary of State Driving at night always is more difficult than during the day. It is harder to see and things appear dif­ ferently. The glare of on­ coming headlights increases the difficulty. Unfamiliar roads and unexpected situations are more likely to cause trouble. You can help ensure safe driving at night in several ways: 1. Make sure your headlights are working well and the glass is kept clean. Have thetn checked periodically for correct aim. 2. Don't overdrive your headlights. At night, you should be able to stop within the distance you can see ahead with your lights. 3. Dim your headlights for every approaching vehicle from the opposite direction, and when closely following any vehicle. 4.. Slow down when meeting anotehr vehicle or when nearing a curve if you are driving at or near ttie maximum posted speed. 5. Use the edgeline as a guide. If there is no edgeline, use the center line to guide yourself. Next week I'll list six additional suggestions to help you drive safely at night. (A copy of the Rules of the Road booklet will be sent to you upon request. Write to Alan J. Dixon, Secretary of State, Springfield, 111 62756.)

Although larger sizes usu­ ally cost more by the dozen, they are sometimes cheaper by weight. Compared with most meats, some fish is lOMf in cost. Frozen fish filets such as perch, cod and whiting are generally good buys the year around. Enriched specialty breads, such as French and Italian, cost up to three times more than enriched white bread with similar nutrition­ al value. Day old bread and baked goods may be available at a great sav­ ing. Ask or watch for these where you shop -- or at special bakery outlets nearby. Instant rice costs over twice as much as regular, and rice mixes with seasonings cost more than regular rice that you season at home. For low cost and variety in meals, use eggs, dry beans, peas and peanut butter in place of meat some of the time. These foods provide protein and other nutrients that meat supplies. Avoid cans that are dented on the seams and creases or that bulge at the ends in the "reduced for quick sale" bins. What Just One Person Can Do • • .. u~><* u Maria Montessori > ;•* . Innovator vi# Have you ever gotten on# of your best ideas, a real breakthrough in you* thinking, when you felt you were at your, lowest point? Well it happened to Maris Montessori in 1894. +- Born in Italy in 1870, Maria was the first woman in Italian history admitted tp medical school. Her fellow students were hostile. She often had to work late and alone, in buildings that were cold arid badly lit. As the pressure mounted she became so depressed that one night she decided to abandon her career$ medicine, she thought, was no place for a woman. l|ia| night she walked dejectedly through a local park only to be distracted by the pathetic sight of a beggar woman sleeping on a bench. Next to her on the cold ground was a child playing peacefully with a long, red ribbon. How could it be, Maria wondered, that a piece of ribbon could keep a poor, neglected child occupied and happy? Maria was moved deeply. Suddenly she knew she had to finish her medical studies in order to help deprived children. In 1896 she graduated, and soon developed a technique to train retarded children. It was so successful that in 1899 Dr. Montessori was invited to speak at a teachers* congress in Turin. She electrified her audience with the claim that retarded children could be trained and should be given the same chances at education as normal children. Maria Montessori hated to see pupils in class "sitting like rows of butterflies transfixed with a pin." Her system is based on the premise that children want to learn. In the Montessori method the teacher supervises froiq a distance, giving help only when it's asked f6r or needed. Children are allowed to move around freely and choose what they want to do, providing thejh preserve good manners and refrain from disturbing the classroom harmony. STATE FAIR Lineup of special days at the 1980 Illinois State Fair was announced last week by Sid Hutchcraft, new superintendent of the fair.' This year's theme is "Join Us For The Good Days."

Aug. 8 is Democrat day; Aug. 9, mayors and local officials day; Aug. 10, Veterans day; Aug. 11, youth day and ac­ cess Illinois; Aug. 12, agriculture and Farm-City day; Aug. 13, Governor's day; Aug. 14, Springfield day; Aug. 15, Golden Age day; Aug. 16, Labor day; and the fair ends Aug. 17 with Race day. that she betfiffto wprt on it universal application^ "Little by little," Dr? Montessori said later, "I became convinced that similar methods applied to normal children would? develop and set free tleir personalities in a marvelous^ and surprising way."* Maria Montessori lived to, be 82. Long before her death in 1952 she had the satisfaction of seeing her educational theories and techniques vindicated. Her method has helped millions of people. By the grace of God, she -- just one person - changed the world of education for the better.
