Grandma Sez - - - I get a heap o' ideas, in this old head o' mind, whilst I'm a sittin' here, a rockin' and a thinkin'. "Freedom" is a mighty beautiful word, and it is shameful tQ hev it so abused and misinterpreted, as it has been by a. minority. But it has been proven that the minority can cook up a big batch o' trouble, once they git started, and it is mighty hard to get things back in shape again, once the havoc has been wrought. Some would hev us believe that this is a free country to do as a person pleases, but thet is not the way it wuz intended, and the way we, who try to be law-abiding , hopes it will be. The founders o' this great America had good intentions when they created a government for the benefit of the freedom loving folks who were willin' to work and build. The privileges which are enjoyed by the people of this country were not experienced by people of other lands, and still are not, to this day. Our government, "Of the people, by the people and for the people" was established for the benefits of folks who are willin' to work for it. It seems, thet, somewhere along the way, the meaning has been twisted to fit any situation thet comes to hand. Household Tips Because of the individual characteristics of vegetables, there are no set rules on buyingexperience in selecting is the best teacher., Here are a few buying tips from U.3. Department of Agriculture marketing specialists: --Demand freshness. Check the characteristic signs of freshness, such as bright, lively color and crispness. Vegetables are usually at their best quality and price at the peak of the season. --Handle with care. Bruising and damage can be prevented by just being careful. In the long run, you pay for carelessness. --Shop the plentifuls. The USDA notifies consumers through newspapers and other media when vegetables are in abundant supply. --Don't just buy because of low price. It doesn't pay to buy more vegetables than you can properly store in your refrigerator or more than you can use without waste. Most fresh vegetables can be stored for two to five days, except for root vegetables which can be stored as long as several weeks. --Avoid decay. Even though you trim off the decayed area, rapid deterioration is likely to spread to the salvaged area. Vegetables' in good condition may cost a few cents extra, but the added cost will be a wise investment. MEMORIAL HOSPITAL WOODSTOCK On May 10 a son was born to Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hester.

ILLINOIS P 6491 Local Nursing Student Will Graduate June 4 That is not the true American way of life, and sometimes, I wonder if things can ever, get back to a state where a man can be hgppy, jest knowing thet the "Ship of State" is in the hands o' competent hands, guiding it into a safe harbour o' peace and contentment. It is a sad shame that the disgraceful acts of some, should have to rest on the shoulders of the others, but thet is the way and the Good Book says that the sins o' the Father shall rest on the heads o' the sons.
