One of the outstanding monuments of the Renaissance, it was established by Cosimo de' Medici and was the inspiration for the establishment 30 Sears later of the famed Vatican brary. Before the war the Biblioteca Laurenziana, or the Laurentian library, housed 10,000 prized manuscript books, mostly copied by monks in preprinting days. Preserved thei'e also were many illuminated volumes which were still chained at steep angles to the "plutei." These were hand-carved reading desks, designed by Michelangelo, and set up in the long Sala di Michelangiolo with its stakw&slasfc windows. Tte Renaissance had its begin* nings in Florence as a revival of learning, a renewal of interest in the works of early Latin and Greek authors. Petrarch, reputed founder of the movement, began the collection of anpient nSanuscripts, a mania that seized all Italy and gradually swept over Europe. Practically all extant Greek and Latin literature was If* covared L«itwson 1330 and laspffev Find BrH Factor ^ In Storage of Efgs Some eggs keep better than others, under the same conditions, because of the breading of the hens that laid them. This Vecent finding by poultry specialists of the department of agriculture opens up a new field of opportunity in poultry breeding. During the last four years the scientists have observed individual and family differences in the keeping quality of eggs. Using the shrinkage of the thick portion of the white, during storage, as a measure of deterioration the govirnment poultrymen found such shrinkage to be 62 per cent for eggs laid by hens of one line of breeding and only 33 per cent for another line. TRACE YOUNG THIEVES ' - The two beys who stole clothing and suitcases from the Firestone Home and Farm store in Burlington, Wis., recently have been discovered to be two escaped delinquents from the Waukesha Industrial School fpr Boys.

This information was * traced through the name tags sewed in the bluejeans they dropped on. the floor in the store the night or the -theft.

Revenues Increase Municipal and state revenues continued to increase during 1944, with the result that most municipalities and states were not suffering from any immediate lack of funds; municipal tax collections were still at an extremely high level in 1944. Cost of municipal borrowing reached a new low point, though the j {smaller. trend was slightly upward at the close of the year, the report said, adding that 1944 brought the ownership of municipal securities mora fully into the hands of those who wanted them primarily because of their tax exempt feature. Voters generally were favorable to proposals calling for municipal bond issues to finance postwa^onstruction, and these approvals ami the completion of more plans for public works will tend to increase the volume of municipal issues of 1945. Cities and states continue to establish financial reserves for use when men and materials are again available. 1 DOUBLE TOUR MONEY Potato plants with tomatoes growing qn the same vine have attracted many, to the garden of the Carl Voigt residence in Marengo.

Are your eyes tired and blood* shot and sensitive to bright light? Possibly your diet is deficient in riboflavin (vitamin B-2) essential to growth and general good health. Most important source of riboflavin is milk, which furnishes almost half the supply of this vitamin in our diet. Most concentrated sources of riboflavin are liver, kidney, cheese, eggs and som# greens, such as kale, but the uses of these in the diet are limited, whereas milk can be served several times a day. The nutritionists recommend that adults use three glasses of milk daily; children three to four glasses; mothers, four glasses; and nursing mothers, six glasses daily. Since light destroys riboflavin, do not let milk stand in light, particularly bright sunlight. Meats, fish, poultry, dry beans and peas, and peanuts are other good sources of riboflavin. Enrichment requirementa for commercially made white bread include riboflavin, and flour labelad "anriclwd" will also containit.- PARACHUTE FAIL* In a telegram received on July 20, from the war department, Mr. and Mrs; Harry A.
