Stratton has issued a statement urging Illinois residents to make wide use of the new National Guard three-cfent commemorative postage stamp which has just gone on sale at postoffices throughout the country. Praising the Illinois National Guard for its distinguished and honorable record in both war and peace, the governor pointed out that thousands of its officers and men are now serving in Korea, Western Germany, and in Army camps within the continental United States. "Letters from -home are the best morale boosters in a serviceman's life," the Governor declared. "I hope everyone in Illinois who has a friend' or relative in the armed forces will take time to write an extra letter to him and use the National Guard stamp for postage." - _ m f Tb* Timlfn Safety S«rviw ^ The average acre of Sugar beets yields 3,500 pourtds of granulated sugar.. • _--, $ _ "SPEEDY" by McHENRY GARAGE TMINO THAT TMAT P»6WT NICK MILLED *HENRY6MA6t ALWAYS LIVE UP TO THEIR FINE »EPUTATK>N POP FIRST CLASS WORKMAN* SHIP AMC> AT SEASONABLE PRICES TOO. >.

Some people sign their names in full. Some use abbreviations, initials, even an X. And some do it with a punchy These are the railroad conductors or trainmen--the men who pick up your ticket on a train;-- and you'll never get two different punches from the same one. Your ticket won't, that; is. For every railroad ticket collector has his own personal and distinctive punch mark, or signature. Each one is registered in his name (like a policemen's revolver) and^ there are no two exactly alike" on any one railroad, though there may be similarities 'among railroads. Take a look at the cut-out in your ticket the next time you ride a train. It inay be shaped like a rooster, or a hat, or a half-moon or even a fish. It will be one of thousands of designs. The railroads began the punch signature system many- years ago Ttatrwfct. Warctt-lgi M59 to increase their efficiency aitf to know just who punched what. A punch is registered in a trainman's name the day he begins collecting (tickets ; and he retains it until he Stops. A trainman usually has two punches witih the same mark, ftne to be used when the other is being repaired or sharpened, And it's rare when a trainman looses his punch. The railroads coHect millions of tickets annuaHy and store all of them under a filing system in case of passenger claims Which run into the thousands every day. ! One Eastern ' railroad still remembers the refund claim made by a fugitive from justice. The man bought a ticket from New York to Chicago, but was arrested in Harrisburg, Pa., and taken off the train. He wanted a refund. A search of the tickets collected on the train he rode turned up a New York-Chicago ticket that had been punched only to Harrisburg. The man got his refund.' , r •peed Hate amd lived [4'1 '}• i|"t' •!' if' if if iji .|..fri}i •{, ,|i i}. .ft.|i 4. if..ft.ft •}.+1.
