We seldom stop to think that this great work is made possible largely through the active sponsorship of the church, the school and other community institutions. But perhaps even more significant is the fact that some 860,000 adults' share their time as volunteer leaders with the boyhood of America. Their is a devoted service. A large number have served many years. Boy Scout Week this ye^r has been dedicated to honoring the Cubmasters, the Scoutmasters «rid the Explorer 'Advisors -- the men who bring 8couting directly to the boys. To them has been entrusted the care and guidance of our boys and young men. It is their influence upon the Scouts of today, with whom they work and play, that help mould these boys and young men into better citizens and better proponents of the American way of life. These unselfish men who give leadership in Scouting are perfoiming an outstanding act of citizenship. Our nation owes them much. . 1 HEART SYMBOL. !fohody knows exactly why St. Valentine's Day is associated with romance, nor why its symbol has evolved as a geometrically shaped heart which bears only superficial resemblance to the human heart. ^ A search through history books is unrewarding. According to some, the day honors the memory of two third-century martyrs,, both named St. Valentine. Others suggest it may have been derived from a pag^n festival, and yet others insist it may have been inspired by the belief that birds mate on Feb. 14. The St. Yhl&itlfie's "Day we obslrve next Sunday, however, has a new measure of significance. Appropriately, it is the mid-point and climax of the Heart Fund appeal conducted in February by the Illinois Heart association, an affiliate of the American Heart association. The relationship is a good one. How better could one show affection than through a Heart Fund gift intended to protect a beloved human heart? Or . to honor the memory of one whose life was taken by heart disease? With diseases of the heart and circulation responsible for about half of all deaths in the state, your contributions are urgently needed to carry on the important work of the Illinois Heart association. Funds will be used to continue programs of research, education and community service. And tftis much is certain: Regardless of the light in which !WEEKEND "SPECIALS"! PASSENGER TIRES Reg. Price '.

Happened in Egypt Egyptians appear to be dlow Ml learning that it makes a lot & difference whether an animal gets its medicine through the nose or down the throat. The British veterinary journal reports that a donkey "paid through the nose" for its owner's mismanagement in giving a drench for colic. Like many Egyptians do, the owner poured the medicine through the donkey'i nostrils, causing mechanical pneumonia. The frantic owner put in an emergency call to his veterinarian just as the animal was taking its last «asp. 1 *1 , UHK a KtW Bbihnfttt Only pen with the amazing ELECTRO-POLISHED POINT Parker's new Electro-Polished point is the smoothest ever made!
