Feb 26, 27 and 28. It is an excellent op portunity to gain an understanding of an economic philosophy that it is causing so much change in the economy and subsequently so much change in' lifestyles as well as budgets. This slide presentation illustrates in non-technical language the theory, and what it will do for the economy and why it is now in the very painful stages. The Supply Side strategy draws a sharp contrast between "demand management economics", followed since the 1930's. and current policies aimed at restoring the incentives to save, invest and produce. The concept is described as not new". It is based on America's fundamental strengths-the initiative, enterprise, and creativity of its people. Supply side economics has developed a tremendous following in both government and the business com munity, and gained recognition as the theory behind some of the most significant changes in U.S. economic policy since the 1930's, changes that are, Supply-side and com* not comfortable to assimilate. The presentation at the Trade Fair allows the public to learn why the discomfort will be worthwhile in the long ran and that the long run is in the not too distant future. The Chamber of Commerce is af fording everyone a unique opportunity to piece together the puzzle. This concise prehensive program will be scheduled on a half-hour repeat basis all during the three days of the Fair. It will be shown in the language arts room, just adjacent to the foyer where the Chamber information booth will be located. For additional information con cerning any aspect of the ninth annual Trade Fair, which will be held at Parkland school, call the McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce office, 385-4300. MUSIN' AND MEANDERIN' (Continued from page 1) As biographical sketches reach our desk weekly in anticipation of the spring primary, one self-definition runs through each of them: "I am a fiscal conservative" or words to that effect. It makes no difference what the political party may be. These candidates are telling us something Some of them - and some of us - are hurt each time a new cut in services is made. What seems im portant is that there are still a good many willing to accept it just because of the hundreds of loopholes like the Chapter 13 "Wage earner's plan" that clearly are not in the best interest of anyone except the person who takes advantage of it at the expense of others. Congratulations are in order for Illinois legislators, the first to plug this loophole.

AT 26 BELOW THE ONDr 1HNG VOU COUtDDO nttKBPMOVMG. January lOth's record cold came awfully close to crippling us here in northern Illinois. Most of us stayed in, turned up the heat, turned on the TV, the hi-fi, the electric blanket, anything and everything that'd make life more comfortable. Our people couldn't stay inside. Commonwealth Edison linemen, nearly 400 strong, fought the bitter cold, repairing broken power lines. A thousand more came out to work on other weather-related problems. The power flowed. In spite of the frozen fuel oil lines at our generators. In spite of frozen coal piles. In spite of the frozen coal- handling equipment that kept us from getting fuel to our boilers. What picked up the slack, what saved the day, was our backup power and our strong base of nuclear stations. Most of all, our nuclear stations* They continued uninterrupted, unruffled by the cold or the wind. Thanks to nuclear power and the dedication of our employees, over 98% of our customers in northern Illinois f went untouched. Of those customers who did experience any outage, most had service back within minutes to a / few hours. - / It's a record we're proud of. A record of reliable service all of the employees of Commonwealth Edison intend to maintain, whatever comes up. But weatherproof energy requires continual maintenance. And finishing the new nuclear facilities now under construction. „ / . can you did on the coldest day in history. Commonwealth Edison Dorlt take tomorrow for granted. STORE MCC *9
