It seems she was out looking for her son on her bike just before the rains let loose last Monday and after finding him and sending him home she headed for home. Just as she turned into the drive the bike skidded on the gravel and down she went, breaking her ankle. As luck would have it, no one was around so there she sat in the pouring rain, not able to move. Finally her feeble cries for help were answerecl and someone came to her rescue. She was taken to the hospital where she rested for two days. She is now home an*) recuperating very nicely although she will be on crutches lor (5 to 8 weeks. £ good job but ended up on tJie bottom.

William T. Larkin, superintendent of plart industry, last week reminded gardeners who are about ready to purchase bulbs for spring planting to "be sure that they are paying for quality bulbs, and not just for attractive packages."

Later, folks in Illinois toasted the victories of their troops in the Civil War with sparkling steins of beer. For then, as now, beer was the traditional beverage of moderation. But beer means more than enjoyment to Illinois. The Brewing Industry contributes more than 10 million tax dollars to Illinois each year, money that helps support our parks, hospitals, and schools. TODAY, in its centennial year, the United States Brewers Association still works constantly to assure maintenance of high standards of quality and propriety wherever beer and ale are served.
