State St. Phone JOrdan 8-72S6 TOTAL ASSETS OVER $6,000,000.00 There's nothing like a good photograph to back up your story that the fishing wais really "topnotch." Back Up Your Fish Story According to the latest statistics we could track down, about thirty million people--and that's roughly one-fifth of the total population --go out to try tKfeir luck with rod and reel every year. We'd like to make this suggestion if your weekend or vacation plans include a fishing trip: Be sure your camera goes along with your tackle when you set out for the "big catch." You Know we frequently mention how much help your camera can give you in the pursuit and enjoyment of your other hobbies. We feel that this is especially true in the case of fishing--for what better way is there to keep-a record of the catch (yes, including "the big one that got away!") than in pictures you take with your own camera? , In many of the album collections we've seen, some of the most successful picture stories have been those that carried the title, "My Fishing Trip," along with details on when and where it took place. The real beginning of such a story usually goes back to the day in early spring when Dad first ferrets'his old fishing hat out of its winter hiding place and sets about putting rod and reel in peak condition for the workout to come. This "dry run" provides the first chapter of any angler's story -rand some fine picture material, too, whether you choose to shoot it in color or black-and-white. But this is only the beginning! When the "great day" finally arrives, there's loading the equipment into the car, getting final inr structions and good wishes from the family, picking up the friends who've been planning this trip together all year. Your camera should catch these pictures, too, as well as scenic views of the site the anglers choose when they reach their destination. Of course, the actual "catch" deserves feature billing -- and the full color treatment. And don't forget to get a shot of supper sizzling in the skillet over a roaring campfire--whether it's fish or bacon and eggs will depend on who's doing the casting! r We personally feel that a camera is a real "must" for anybody setting out on a fishing trip. --John Van Guilder the family Christmas dinner at their home this year. Present were Mr. and Mrs. William Ritter, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Ritter and Mrs. Ritter's father, Frank Helig, all of Chicago.

EMPLOYMENT RECORD " "NoTpagricultural employment irt Illinois reached the new high record of 3,492,000 workers in November. Personal income in the state attained the $21 billion mark in 1956. This showing is outlined in a year-end report by Roy F. Cummins, state labor director, to Gov. William G. Stratton. Illinois production workers earned an average of $2.31 an hour, $87.79 a week during October (latest month for which figures are available) the report said. Making allowance for the reduced purchasing power of the dollar, and income and social security taxes, Illinois production workers in 1956 are estimated to have spendable earnings almost 20 per cent higher than in 1947, and 30 to 40 per cent higher than in 1939. Unemployment is low in Illinois. Less than 3 per cent of the state's total labor force of 4,200,000 were reported as without jobs. Such a figure is considered to be low-water mark for those who are in the normal course of shifting jobs, or undergoing seasonal lay-offs and other ordinary changes in empolyment status, Cummins said.
