A Gala Night Ann and Floyd Leigh traveled in to Chicago on March. 1, to attend the garbage collectors' dance which was held at a local hotel, They had a wonderful evening. A delicious beef dinner was served and they saw a marvelous floor show. What pleased Floyd was that he didn't have to haul all the garbage away from the several hundred diners that attended. Oh yes. Phylis Michaltk and Betty Laurence kept the children, so they didn't have to be put to bed with their snowsuits .on the night before.

' --' The Squares On Saturday March 8, the squares met once again for their regular monthly "swing your partner routine." This time the Wally Laurences were our host and hostess. Everyone -was so tired when they arrived and. it looked like it wouldn't be much of a night for square dancing, but rhuch to the surprise of ourselves we really did ourselves proud arid had a wonderful time.' Betty served hot dogs with every kind of trimming you could J - Sneakies . Shame on you Dolores for fighting with your daughter over that last doughnut.

While Americans are producing 6,000,000 automobiles a year, 9,000,000 television sets, 4,000,000 _ refrigerators and 600,- 000,000 cases of canned goods, they are wbndering what to do with items that are used and worn out. This is also the problem with the 14,000,000 license plates Issued annually. Most license tags become worthless when new. plates are issued. They then must be junked. But in the seven states using reflective license plates, they have an. unusual and important secondary use. Some of the reflective plates will throw back light from distances of up to 2,000 "feet and retain their light-reflecting qualities almost indefinitely. Also, they can be cut up and reused without damage to th&r reflectivity, continuing their service as safety pieces. Just as the plates were important factors in reducing high-way collisions because they reflected lights to give ad ditional warning, they now play an effective role in reducing farm and home accidents. 1 Farmers in South Dakota, Minnesota, and Maine, where this type of reflective plate is used, find their old plates can be modified and made into novel devices for preventing accidents when placed around their property. Used to mark gates, culverts and other farm road hazards; attached to simple wooden paddles to be used at dusk when driving cattle across or along the roadway or when walking along the roadway; used to mark sharp or pointed tools or other dangerous "equipment in an uniigKted machine shed; fixed to the rear of wagons, tractors, and other slow-moving, unlighted equipment that may be on the road after dark, the cut-up plates provide economical safety devices. In the cities, the cut-up reflective sections carr mark driveways and fences; can be crimped to the rear of children's bicycles, wagons and sleds for dusk and after-dark protection; can be attached to tools and ulner equipment frequently left in the yard or on the driveway to make them easier to find or avoid, with use of a flashlight. With a little bit of American ingenuity, one disposal problem is solved. So are some safety problems. . MILK PRICES STEAD#' " Class' I milk prices will , bemaintained at our near 1957 f k'% levels for the remainder of • 1958, according to A; L. Me- Williams, General. Manager of Pure Milk association.

AIRPLANE MANHUNT When state police engage in a manhunt these days they call for an airplane instead of a ,pack of bloodhounds. According to Chief William Morris, planes and fliers from the safety section of the Illinois Department of Aeronautics. flew more than 100 hours during 1957 in police-liasion work which included prison breaks, escapes from mental institutions and bank robberies. He pointed out that planes are not designed to catch criminal^ but to pin them down and limit their movement following commission of a crime.
