Old Fashioned Buckwheat ':,#T H 3$: Fifty-eight towns and cities in Illinois, outside of Chicago, report 116 new industries established in 1926. These new industries, according to the figures, gave employment to 5,763 male workers and 1,642 female worker ® The estimated investment in these new industries is put at $37,950,500, and the new payroll coming to Illinois as a result of them is ghren as $8,- 927,500 a year. These figures are from a survey just completed by the industrial development committee of the Illinois Chamber of Commerce. *n»irty-four towns and cities in Illi nois, outside of Chicago, report 109 industrial expansions in 1926. These expansions have given employment in the year to 6,366 male and 812 female workers, according to the figures. It is estimated that a total of $27,- 276,600 has been spent in these plant additions and developments and that the added payroll, as a result, will be approximately $6,773,000. Reports from seventy towns and citics figured in the above, some of them showing both new industries and expansions while others have acquired new industries with no expansions and vice versa. The report above shows more activity in Illinois in 1926 than in 1925 when only thirty-seven towns and cities reported new industries or expansions. In 1925 these thirty-seven towns and cities reported sixty-three new industries established and 128 expansions. It was estimated that in 1925 employment was given to 4,364 males and 1,462 females by the new industries. Expansions were larger in 1925 in pbint of employment given as it was estimated that in 1925 there were 11,615 male and 2,007 female workers put to work. Capital investment in additions, however, was put at only $10,- 232,700. Waukegan and North Chicago, industrially considered as one city, report ten new industries established in 1926 with fourteen expansions. New industries in Waukegan-North Chicago gave employment to 1.079 males and 75 females; investment $3,097,000; payroll $1,919,500. Expansions in Waukegan and North ".Chicago gave work to 892 males and 150 females. These expansions called for an added investment of $1,548,000 with an annual increase in payroll of $1,711,- 000. South Chicago also reports large activities and while there are fewer new industries and fewer expansions the totals in dollars invested are larger. The survey shows that $25,450,- 000 was put into new industries in South Chicago in the year and $6,200,- 000 in expansions. South Chicago's new industries gave employment to 450 male and 10 female workers. The expansions gave employment to about 1,800 male workers. Freeport shows four new industries, 275 male and 150 female workers; investment, $840,000; payroll $792,000. Approximate investment iq expansion in Freeport is put at $867,000 with added payroll of $115,000. Peoria reports four new industries with an investment of $150,000 and employment for 65. Six industries in Peoria show an investment of $5,200,- 000 in expansions in the year, and employment for about 400 males and 50 female workers. Sterling and Rock Falls, which are considered as one city, report three new industries and thirteen expansions. These new industries gave work to 65 males and 10 females with payroll of $96,000 and investment. of $1,020,000. The thirteen expansions check in with increased capital investment of $1,003,000 and payroll of $482,000, employment being given as a result of the expansions to 290 males and 36 females. Galesburg is also up among the leaders in both new industrial development and expansion. Galesburg shows for the year four new industries; investment, $205,000; payroll, $85,000; employment 30 males and 41 females. Galesburg shows $200,000 in industrial expansions with added payroll of $80,000; added employment for fifty persons. Effingham shows four new industries started in the year with an investment of $560,000 and a payroll of $r,<>0,000. These plants give employment to 350 men and 300 women. Effingham shows no expansion the year. The situation in Effingham is somewhat remarkable as practically all of its industries, at the outset of 1926, were old cnsa. It can ba said, with much truth, that Effingham's av. aliening has been due to organized effort within the city. Effingham, which for years had little industrial growth or expansion, suddenly decided to develop itself in an organised way and the story speaks for itself. Macomb is also well up among the leaders reporting four new industries in the year and two expansions. With an investment of only $54,500 in new industries Macomb, however, shows an added payroll of $126,500 going to 66 workers, 21 male and 45 female Macomb's two expansions gave work to 105 men. The added investment is pot at $125,000 and the annual payroll increase at $120,000. Decatur stands third in capital invested in expansions or $4,025,000 with an increased payroll of $240,000 Decatur's three new industries give . [ employment to 90 males and 20 fe- CoUlS, Grippe, Flu, Dengue I males with annual payroll of $150,000. Bilious Fever I Capital investment in new enterprises It kills the germs 88 i ^the year in Decatur " at *275,- Aurora also ranks well among the Illinois cities which have succeeded in making real advances industrial# in the year. Aurora reports four new industries; investment, $210,000; payroll $60,000; employment given, 00 males and 32 females. Expansions in Aurora industries reveal an added investment of $2,049,800 with an increased payroll of $358,700. These expanding industries gave employment to 516 males and 65 females in the year. Summing op tlM finding of survey it is pointed dut that twenty-two towns and cities in Illinois report more than one new industry and twenty- one report mors than one expansion.

If they just knew that we have got some coffee that is boilin' hot, and sandwiches and homemade ^pie they wouldn't go a-sailin' by. I guess I'll git a motor bike and chase them fellers down the pike and make 'em com-? back here and eat, I hate to own that I am beat.

Gerald S. Davies, a British during | clergyman, collects washboards wherever he goes, and finds the hobby fascinating. His unique collection is now being arranged in a "charming old manor house bought especially to for a; u museum.' Smith had passed a weary night. The strange fyotel bed, the passing trains, the midnight cats and the morning cocks had all contributed to his restlessness, and it was not until half past seven that he fell into his first really comfortable dose. Bang! Bang! « He awoke startled to find that it was only the bellboy at his door. iWell, what is it?" Smith grumbled "Telegram, sir. Will you open the door?" "Certainly not," said Smith crossly. He was by tio means anxious to leave his shelter sheets. "Slip it under the door." "I can't do that sir," replied the boy anxiously. "It's on a tray.'* It was the usual moonlight night and the necessary dark road. Against a bank a dark car could be seen, mirrored against the moon. Inside, two heads were seen to converge into a single shadow. And the funny thing was that they really were out of gas! A friend said to me the other night: "If I start to lie myself out of a bad situation, I always get tangled up and forget what I say. If I tell the truth, of course I can always keep my stories straight, so I find it is better even if it gets me in trouble." Which reminds me that it only takes about half as many words to tell the truth as it does to tell a lie By which I am also reminded of the fellow who confided in me: "Jimmie I've lied to my wife a thousand times but I've never fooled her once." January, 1877 The princlal of our public school reports an increased attendance since the holidays and a deep interest manifested . by all. Our school is now in a healthy and flourishing condition.
