Tammmw I have never read "Gulliver's Travels", but we certainly were the gullible travelers recently. Our pocketbook, (which my wife carried) will not allow any high degree of gulliblinesa, however. One of the values of travel te that you appreciate home better when you return or you decide definitely that your present home is not tie place for you and you do something about it. I think those who travel considerably are not the psychiatric cases we hear so much about where people have not had a chance in life to express themselves. \ According to this standard I shouldn't be so ihflicted because before I came of age I had spent two summers traveling over 3.800 miles in a box car each year. "Side door pullman," we called them. He was a great man who entered our midst. He came from a long line of box cars," someone once said. Here we have signs that say "Keep Off The Grass." In New York the sign would read, "The Law--Keep Off The Grass." There are many signs which read, "The Law--Don't Throw Trash In The Street." Certain things were disappointments to me in New York City, because they were not as large and awe-inspiring as I thought they would be. Madison Square Garden is not as large by any means as the Chicago Stadfum. The waiting room in Grand Central Terminal is small as compared to some of the Chicago railroad stations. The Statue of Liberty didn't seem as large as pictures had always made it seem. best publicity agents in the .world live in . and work around New York City. On Wednesday, June 25*. come to Old Hickory Farm on the blacktop that takes off of Route 47 about four miles south of Huntley, towards Elgin. It is the first farm crossing Route 72. It's 8 miles northwest of Elgin on Big Timber Road. Ralph McKinfcie, operator of a 9,000 hen-egg production plant on his farm there, and poultry men of the College of Agriculture, will be your host in finding out how things are done.

" Let's don't take lightly the possible success of the new television show "Town Farm U, S. A.." sponsored by the Illinois Agricultural association and arranged by, hired hand Don Peasley of Woodstock. It's terrific. This is not just the opinion of your humble servant because the time is being changed from 4:15 p.m. Tuesday afternoon to 7 p.m. Saturday night, which is about 1000 percent improvement in time. The thing that makes the program good is that' they use live animals. McHenry county Holsteins have played a very active part, with some Hickory Creek cattle a couple of weeks ago and Dick Mathews of Huntley last week. Henry Marlowe is the perfect TV actor. Anybody interested in a hatchery Oh! yes. He wag on last week's program as an experienced 4-H club leader, boasting twenty-two years. He had examples of A.M. and B.M*. in Dick Mathews and Jim Davis of Dean Milk company, Jim being one of his earlier students and Dick a after Marlowe^ and B.M. means before Marlowe. Henry, in his short span of years, went in for deeds instead of titles. That's different than the preacher who gave the eighth grade commencement address. He had titles including M.D., D.D. and L.L.D. and called this to the attention of the graduates asking if they knew what the initials m e a n . " Y e s . " s a i d J o h n n y .
