Most of us can benefit from writing up a family budget. The goal should be to figure out where you might cut comers on spending, and/or increase earnings to provide more money for savings. - Writing out a house hold budget is easy: Just create one column for ex penses and one for earn ings. Monthly budgets are often the most help ful, because that’s the usual schedule for paying household bills with accu mulated income from weekly or bi-monthly If your income is not weekly, bi-monthly or monthly, it may still be hetpfUl to simply tally up quarterly or yearly in come, then divide by 12. Similarly, if you have an nual or quarterly pay ments to make (such as insurance or tax bills), add up the yearly amounts, then divide by 12 to figure your monthly" expenses on these items. It's helpful to include all family members in the annual household budget session. When school-age kids realise how high util ity bills are, they may be come more conscientious about using large appli ances, wasting water, leaving lights on, talking on the telephone for a long time, etc. Questions & Answers tq(. My son is s years old. He’s bright, hand some and healthy. We love him dearly and would do anything for him. The problem is he wants so much! He comes home nearly every other week with a new interest or hobby. We try to en courage these interests, but they get expensive. For instance, he wanted to play trombone, so we bought the trombone and got him lessons. Then he lost interest. Then he wanted to take karate les sons, but quit after only two months. We want to give him vast exposure, but we’re not sure he’ll ever find anything he likes well enough to stick with it. What do we do? A. Children your son’s age are notorious for having short attention spans, especially when it comes to hobbies and ac tivities. Oftentimes a child will want whatever his best friend wants. Learn to inquire into your son’s motive for any new interest. Why was he so interested in karate? Was it the newest trend at school? If you learn why your son develops his interests ana aesires, you may be able to make more informed decisions as to whether it’s just a phase or a legitimate interest. One method for deter mining whether a child’s newfound interest is le gitimate or trendy is the allowance method. Give your son an allowance, and figure into that al lowance a bit extra for his hobbies and interests. Then, when he wants to take up a new activity, ask him to contribute a small amount from his al lowance each week to cover the cost. This is not foolproof, but it does usu ally get a child to give the new activity a second thought before spending his own money on it. You should be grateful for your son’s bright, ac tive mind. He may not master every hobby he undertakes, but he is be ing exposed to many dis ciplines. By undertaking and subsequently dis carding certain hobbies, your son is narrowing down his options and is bound to find something he truly likes — and will master as he grows older. e 1SS0. TriDun* Media Samoa* Auto Talk By Bob Kocher The Heart of It All ral, ing entities, if it were not for their heart, they would be of little use. In our cars, the heart is the battery. We count on it to start our engines. Our lights, radios, power win dows and numerous elec trical gadgets rely on the battery. Take minimal care of the battery and it gener ally will last the life of its warranty. The most im 1 portent battery mainte nance is to check the fluid level. This needs to be done about every two to three months. Check each cell and add cold wa ter where needed. Dis tilled water is best, especially if you have hud water. Some of the new maintenance-free batteries are sealed and need only cable checking. Clean battery cables when they seem to be get ting any buildup of white corrosion. Cables need not only to be clean, but tight also. Sometimes we have battery problems and the cause is somewhere else in the electrical system. A bad alternator or a short circuit can drain the bat o teiy. In cold weather it d requires more battery for f starting and to keep you > warm. • when working around batteries and never have any open flame near them. Because batteries have add in them, get proper medical help if any fluid gets on you. Remember, batteries do wear out and need to be replaced when they no longer can carry their load. Be sure to get a new one that has enough ca pacity for your car. Take good care of the heart of your car’s electrical sys tem, and it wont let you down when you need it.

She reminded the annoyed receptionist of their previous decision, to observe her write em phatically on her ledger FORGOT CHECKBOOK and then refuse to schedule an appointment until the bill was paid. My usually assertive friend had reached her limit with protocol and ag gressively demanded her records as the prelude that begins her search for another doctor. Of course this was met with reeistance but she won this struggle. My friend exited a relation ship of two years because of the one time she forgot her checkbook and the subse quent response she receiv ed. Did the doctor deserve prompt payment? Certain ly. Did he deserve *72 for 10 minutes of service? I don’t believe so. She felt disrespected. Judged unfair ly and treated by a double standard. I believe she did only what was within her rights. I just wish her luck in securing a medical service that will respond different ly This week we have all read of the unfortunately tragic circumstance of a family which' is without a son because of a mistake at Duke University. I was ap palled to read the hospital’s response. “We will work to minimize the chance of this ever happening again.” Cer tainly doctors are human and subject to mistakes, however, “minimize” is an inappropriate word. We want the same response to the loss of this young life that is expected from the doctors when one forgets their checkbook. We don’t ever want to have this hap pen again. What is disturbing about all of this to me is an underlying issue. We live in a country that does not have a high standard of health care that assures each citizen equal access to ap propriate prosperity in the area of physical, behavioral or emotional wellness. Medical care is not guaranteed by your ex istence, but rather your ability to pay for those ser vices. With few exceptions, medical providers believe that they deserve affluence because of the work they do. They are not the only profes sion that share this belief. It appears that we all have met somewhere and agreed that some labors dictate more money for what is done than other labors. Is it also not a reality that in some areas of work there is alto no atandard that j, qualifies what the labor pro- f ducea aa a part of the oqua- „ Won (or what the payment ia s for what ia produced? In other worda, doctors atiU re- , quire their payment if the t patient dies; if one medica- j tion doesn’t work and you i have to go back for another, you still pay the required of- ( flee fee; you pay for an of- ( flee visit as a standard fee regardless of the length of . service during that visit and j I’ve heard that in some of- ( flees if you take more than t one child to be seen, regardless of the time spent , with each, the fee is , multiplied by the number , seen. In addition, I’ve heard of instances where doctors . have been outraged if a pa- , dent is late, yet the national , waiting time, regardless of , appointment time to see a , doctor, is 1% hours. < Of course very seldom do , any of us challenge our doc- ( tors on these high costs, long , waiting times, attitudes, etc. We get and appear to j agree to what we pay for , and vice versa. So why ] should we complain if one of our doctors complains that , we are too poor to pay him and Medicare and Medicaid , don’t pay enough? Why , should we expect doctors to be like George Washington Carver, who didn’t attach a dollar amount to his research with the peanut? What makee us expect our doctors, lawyers, psychologists, school superintendents and ministers to be a Dr. Martin Luther King who when ask ed to lead our struggle toward civil rights did not ask, “What’s the fee, what’s the salary—how do you ex pect me to support my fami ly in the style they deserve?’’ What makes us continue to expect the Christ model from the American value system? Today we would expect that as Christ lay dying on the cross His disciples would be passing the {date amongst Am crowd who could not leave without contributing and certainly a forgotten checkbook would not be an excuse for the sacrifice of his life. This is a new day—service does not dictate sacrifice, it pro mises affluence in certain categories of work. The qualifiers are not commit ment, compassion, and the uplifting of the human race but rather the length of education, the cost of equip ment and finally the small letters that are behind your name that tell what your profession is.

Compare the ecceeeiWlity of the aforemention ed sporta with that of a youngster wanting to play lea hockey. First, he must find an ice rink or live in a climate where lakes or ponds can freese to a safe thickness. He must obtain skates and usually some form of protective gear, i.e., helmet, pads, etc. Unlike the more popular sports of tooJhall or baseball, the protective gear is rarely provided for by an organisa tion such as the school board or Pop Warner. The prospec tive golfer must have access to acres of well-groomed land,, must purchase (or rent) golf clube, and must• -nrchase ex pensive white “moon-cratered” spheres that mystically seem to disappear. Hie prospective swimmer rarely has the luxury of a swimming pool in his/her high school but must seek ac commodation at public facilities or expensive private clubs. Some sports simply are not as popular as others. Baseball, football, basketball and track and fMd are the predominant sports stressed in American high schools, and, all but track and field are the most popular nationwide._ Consequently, high schools absorb much of the expense for paraphernalia used in these sports. Young aspiring athletes also consider the viability of making careers out of their chosen sports, and the most popular sports tend to, have the most potential for providing high paying Jobs. Also, in a high-school setting, where peer acceptance is so important, it is rare for the captain of the golf or tennis team to get the notoriety and local fame that the footballer basketball captain gets. Generally, the degree to which African-Americans participate in specific sports strongly correlates with percentages of participation of Americans at large. Lack of accessibility and lack of popularity steer African-Americans, as well as others, away from certain sports. The “can of worms” is opened when the issue of the> physiological difference of African-Americans is address ed. Again, the reasons for this difference are all too ob vious. The ancestry of African-Americans by definition traces back to Africa, and die physical separation from Africa of practically all African-Americana begins with the slave trade. In the early 1800a, with the assault of im perialism throughout the world, Europeans took theiand of Africa and also needed cheap manual labor to harvest tbe booty from die fertile New Word. Bloodthirsty slave hunters, with superior weaponry for guns and cannons, attacked African communities; slaughtered a few and shackled many. Abo, prisoners of < war from inter-tribal wars were invariably sold to slave hunters. These potential slaves were usually acquired in the interior of Africa and were herded (some caged; some shackled and on foot) chiefly to the ports on the coast of Guinea. It b estimated that nearly half of the potential slaves thatbegan the march to the aea died before reaching the coast. Some committed suicide, and some fell to Wnsos, disease and starvation. Once at the ocean, dm next bg of the “selective" Journey was the infamous Middle Passage, the 81-80 day voyage across die Atlantic Ocean to the Americas. _ Feelint Fit!
