When I said that was old stuff, they let me know they were born way after those days. One question they had was, "Is it true about every motorist carrying kits for« patching tires?" „ Oh. yes.

As I remember, my uncle, Charlie Gibbs, set some sort of a record when he drove all the way to Elgin and back home without even having a flat tire. The Tlnlizzie purred like a kitten.

The wheels were jacked up, the radiator drained, and a big &eet was put over the top and the wait came for spring to arrive when roads were open.

Sometimes those "flivers" kicked, the crank whirling around and breaking arms. The choke was a wire from the carburetor out through the radiator area. A little loop on the end of the wire gave you a chance to pull the choke as you cranked.- If you older readers have heard these stories before, just In fact, many times the roads were ifnpassable and farmers cut wire fences to drive through fields. Another question. "How about climbing hills?" Let me tell thee you didn't climb many hills in high gear. You got a flying start (racing at maybe 18 miles per hour) from way back and went as far as you could in high gear. That's enough about the Tinlizzie. "=rr"-- At one time Henry Ford shocked the nation by an­ nouncing he would pay his factory workers five dollars a day. That was big pay. No deductions. Most boys like to be near water until it is time to wash their face and hands. Then it is disturbing to them to 'have to wash both hands when only one is dirty. Spring must be here. We took down the bird feeders and put up the "Stringer House" in readiness for the arrival of the wrens. During prohibition, Old Timers got thirsty enough to drink the legally permissible brew called near beer. They drank it and pifcested that whoever named that stuff was a d-- poor judge of distance. A duck in our back 40 showed up with a broken leg. Brendan and Aleen, our grandchildren, took it in the basement and wrapped it up. Must let them know this mama duck is getting around much better. Last week ' we met Mrs. Frances Widhalm on a breezy day. - She was all set to put her electric blanket away for the summer when the wind sud­ denly changed. , It's the old story. If you don't like the weather, wait a minute. In the days gone by, they used to have umbrella holders in the front hall of many homes. What I need is a cane holder. The latest addition to my collection is a promotion by Jake Stoffel and that master crafstman Francis Wirtz. It is unique to say the least. < Bill Hecht, world traveler, is off on another cruise and sent a lenghthy report of his cutting up. These are tough times for a White Sox fan. Those Sox beat everybody in spring training while the Cubs couldn't win for losin'. Now look. The Cubs are riding high while the Sox are going down, down, down. Just when dark clouds are hanging low, along comes Jim Wiser to assure me the Sox will rise again. I needed that! ISN'T IT THE TRUTH: If you go to a dentist, you brush your teeth. If you go to a foot doctor, you wash your feet. . If you go for a physical, you take a bath. If you go to a barber, you hope for the best. When my locks get snaggy, I go for a shearing. Unlike other trips as listed above, there is no way to get ready. spurgeons McHENRY MARKET PLACE 3S5-4100 Now thru Sun.!
