Dr. L. R. Davenport, a deputy director in the Illinois Department of Public Health, has taken issue against widespread publicity given to reports on strontium-90 being found in milk at various times arid points around the country.

So" wrote famous naturalistwriter, Donald Culross Peattie, in nsuning his choice of the best state of the fifty in .an article in the April 26 issue'of the New York Times Magazine. Peattie wrote: "Illinois^ the be§t because it is the heartland and is so American . '. Illinois is beautiful it seems to me, as only a great fertile plain can be beautiful." Words of praise from the writer went to New Salem State Park, the Lincoln Home in Springfield, and the* Mississippi river town of Galena. Concerning Illinois' own Abraham Lincoln, Peattie wrote in t£* article, "His greatness marches invisibly across the wide, plain land. For there are mighty footsteps in the prairie grasses, as they bow before the wjnd -- footsteps of a brave knd simple past, leading to a confident tomorrow." The safest rule to follow through life is to set about perfecting yourself instead reforming others.
