V, ,J-.> . ~ -- - As some of your probably know, Chet Banker recently spent another month in the hospital. His wife, June, called me the other evening to inform me that Chet is now in Wesley Memorial hospital where he is being prepared to undergo hqprt surgery. No date has been set as yet, but it could very possibly be one day this week. I'm sure that those of us who know Chet (and even those of you who don't pei haps) will want to drop him a card to let him know that our thoughts arid prayers are with him and his loved ones at this time. The address of the hospital is 250 East Superior, Chicago, 111., Room 1007. I'll definitely keep you posted on his progress. Month Of Hearts And Chet's condition brings us in direct contact with a topic I wanted to talk to all of you about this week. February is always considered to be a month of hearts. Valentine's Day is the big day of the month; but I know one that is even bigger. Heart Fund Sunday! This year Heart Sunday is Feb. 24, and as in previous years I am Heart Fund captain in this community. The gals who have so kindly accepted my request to be Heart Fund volunteers will be calling at your home sometime between Feb. 18 and Feb. 24. Give what you can, if you can; for it is this money that goes entirely into hear research that makes surgery ! such as Chet's possible. And I can't help but recall last year's Heart Fund drive; because on the Tuesday fol lowing Heart Sunday, ou* former Reporter, Polly Steven* called me to find out hov the girls and I made otft. As usual the people of our com munity were both kind ani« generous. Polly and I had nice visit over the telephone and the very next afternoon Polly was gone, ironically, from a heart Attack. So, re member, Heart Sunday, please. Thank you! Johnsburg, P.T.A. On Tuesday next, Feb. 19, the monthly meeting of the Johnsburg public school P.T.A. will be held in the school's allpurpose room beginning at 8 p.m. After the usual business meeting there will be a citizens committee report followed by a question and answer session. The entire program will be followed with cake and coffee, served by the refreshment committee. Everyone is welcome. Pleasant Visit Dottie and Ronnie Siepman and their four off-spring took a ride to Mount Prospect recently to visit Dottie's Grandmother, who is a young eightyseven years old. Grandma usually lives in Detroit with one of Kfer sons, but due to illness there, she is temporarily staying with another son in Mount Prospect. Dottie h&sh't seen her grandmother in two years; and after just having been tied down with her four "darlings" and their mumps, it was a true pleasure trip. Dottie's four children are four of thirty great-grandchildren that Grandma has, all of whom are under nine years of age, so you can see why they have to visit her, one family at a time. Pomp And Circumstance That was the music appropriate for the recent party that Marge and Louie DeFrancisco attended in Chicago. Marge's nephew, James Ellinger, graduated from the University of Illinois and in celebration of this grand milestone in his life, his parents, Sarah and Frank Ellinger, hosted a dinner and party at their home in his honor on Sunday, Feb. 3. Marge tells me that everyone had a wonderful time. She and Pammy stayed over a couple of days while Pam had fittings for the gown she will wear when being flower girl at another nephew's wedding in April. Family Affair Our oldest son, Stan, turned eight years old on Feb. 6, and we celebrated on the big day by inviting Grandma and Grandpa Holtfodt for dinner. Since Grandma doesn't get out much, we told her to come prepared to spend a few days at least; which she is doing. The kids enjoy her company and apparently she enjoys theirs. That evening Millie and George Kropf dropped in for cake and coffee and a good time was had by all. The real celebration came on the following Saturday though, when Stan and I took the children out for the day. Shopping in the morning; out to dinner in the afternoon; and to the movies in the evening. It was Paul's first movie and he behaved quite well actually. Daddy and I took turns spending some time in the cry room, not because he was crying; just noisy. The entire day was fun for all of us and we hope we can do it more often. " Happy Occasions Happy Valentine's Day, today, to all of you! Our only Valentine birthday is that of Richard Radtke. On Feb. 15 Andrew Eichorn celebrates his natal day.

Oh, and by the way, I certainly didn't mean to slight Old Abe last week. It's just that it is a little difficult to keep the correct dates in mind when writing in advance as we do. Hope you all enjoyed the holiday. All the kids did, I know. Well, that about wraps it up for this week. Please call if you have any news. I'll be happy to do my best in writing about it. 'Bye now!

There are differences. A Chevrolet truck welcomes comparison. Look at the little things on it--latches, hinges, stitching in the upholstery. Notice how strong the tailgate is, the rubber encased chains that keep it from sagging. The body floor is made of select wood to eliminate the rust problem and give you better footing. The lower side panels are double-walled; you might dent the inside but it won't show through. Chevrolet designs suspension systems to fit your need. The light-duty type is strong on comfort. Another kind for heavier trucks stiffens up as you increase your load and vice versa. Make sense? If you are going to need a new truck this yeqr» you should look at the quality Chevrolet has to offer* May we bring over a new '63 so you can examine it? 2 NEW (.CYLINDER ENGINES Economical.
