The Kaiser farm, containing 320 acres, is located three miles north of Chatsworth on the black top road, and Mrs. Hubly has resided there for the past twenty-five years. In 1921 the late Frank Kaiser purchased the farm. He died in 1949. His widow, Mary Kaiser, resides in Kankakee and their son Frank lives in Chatsworth. Pre- vious to Kaiser’s ownership, Ed Monahan owned the farm, and preceding him Pat Monahan own- ed it. In recent years several im- provements have been made. Two j years ago a new veranda was ( built on the house, a new crib was built three years ago and several ( other buildings were remodeled four years ago. | The house itself years ago was known as quite a landmark. Pat ! Lawless, now 84 years of age, re- members visiting the house as a lad, so the residence is consider- aly old. probably nearing the cen- I tury mark. It is said that many, many years ago church services upon oc- casions were held in the residence , and overnight guests and travel- ors were housed overnight, as a matter of convenience enroute to other towns and cities. Frank Kaiser informs the Plaindealer that Charles Dillon, a great grandfather of his wife, Jane, built the house originally. This interesting and coincidental fact was not known until after Frank and Jane were married. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hubly . and family moved to the Kaiser | farm in March 1931 from Piper I City. There tyrr ,.vo boys, Leo. and Joe, and four girls, Theresa of Miami, Florida; Virginia, now Mrs Corliss Maxam of North- brook, 111., Jeannette, Mrs. James 1 Hallam of Villa Grove and , Elaine of Boomington, in the fnm- I ily. I The entire family has been in- ! terested in 4-H work for the past 25 years. They have specialized in Shorthorn cattle and Chester White hogs. The Hublys have shown their animals at county, state and international events, winning their share of ribbons. The boys have long been as- sociated with their parents in farming. Mr. Hubly died on Oc- tober 19, 1955. Since that time Mrs. Hubly and her sons have continued to operate the farm. Mrs Hubly has always been in- terested in home beautification projects and grows many beauti- ful and unusual flowers, among them an orchid (quite a rarity in this part of the country) which at present has four lovely blooms Through the experience gained in this manner the boys and their mother will continue to make the .120 acre Kaiser farm one of the show places of this area. ------------- o ------------- HAVE YOU BID ON T H E GO C H EV Y ?

I V I A K I T H E W H E E I

City and farm folk alike depend on people beyond where the tracks join the horizon to buy the things they make and grow. And it s mostly from these faraway people that we get the things that enrich our living.

Mid-America wouldn't be what it is for any of us if we didn’t have good ways of moving the products of farm, mine and factory.

And most important of t hese ways is by rail.For this is the way of economy. Last year the Illinois Central took in less than 1 1/5 cents per ton mile, on the average, for all freight hauled.

But present transport regulations often de­prive you of the most economical transporta­tion. Under these regulations rates are some­times set higher than necessary in order to "p ro tec t” some less economical way of hauling.

To save you money, a Cabinet Committee appointed by the President of the United States recommends relying more on competi- , tion and less on regulation to set freight rates.

We favor such competitive pricing. It would help us to serve you better and more econom­ically then ever.

IEt ’s t a l k t o r q u e ! In plain la n g u a g e , torque i is “twist” — like turning a door knob. It’s

the force that makes the wheels go ’round.So it follows . . . the more torque your

engine has, the more go pou 'er your car has . , . the more getaway at the light . , . the more action on the open road!

That’s why, when it conies to power, there’s nothing like Oldsniobilc’s Rocket T-350 En­gine — because the Rocket is to rq u e TNT'! Figures prove it; 350 pound-feet at 2800 rnm (340 pound-feet at 2i00 rpm in “88” modrls).

OLDS CHASSIS IS ENGINEERED TO HANDLE HIGHER TORQUEI

OldfOnobile has the chassis to take Rocket torque . . . a skillfully engineered Oldsmohile chassis with an extra-sturdy, dynamically bal­anced drive shaft, and an extra-rigid frame that resists twisting and weaving.

What’s more, the Rocket’s got horsepower•240 V ■» NinatyK,„Kl and Smf

— fo spare/* And with Oldsmohile, it’s high, usable horsepower . . . a by-product of engine design aimed straight at the wheels — design that translates horsepower into terrific torque at n o r m a l engine rpm’s.

TOP TORQUE MEANS TIP-TOP PERFORMANCE!

The result is higher torque — silken, respon­sive Rocket action. Touch the accelerator, ever so gently, you “go” . . . and we do mean “G O !” You thrill to smoother, swifter hursts of power in medium speed ranges — tip-top performance for everyday use — spec­tacular performance when you need it . . . when you want it.

Any way you look at it, you can’t top the Rocket for thrills for the money — or for top return when it’s time to trade. Stop by soon. Rocket ’round the block . . . or around the town if you like!

First Baptists Have Baptismal Service

Sunday evening the First Bap­tist church held an impressive service for four young people and two adults. The church was dark­ened with the only light shining on the baptistry. This structure was recently decorated by Miss

Jo Hall and Mrs. Archie Perkins to resemble the scene on the Jor­dan river. During the service the choir sang hymns from the bal­cony, accompanied by Miss Don­na Forney at the organ and Miss Runell Curtis at the piano.

The church has a new Wurlitz- er spinet piano, which is used in harmony with the Baldwin elec­tric organ.

Dedication services were held in the morning for the beautiful brass candlesticks, altar vases, cross and Bible holder, gifts of Mrs. No la Miller in memory of her husband, Klaus Muller. The vas­es were filled with bouquets of

In the Chinese calendar, this is The Year of the Monkey. I ’m doing my best to observe it.

Did you read the funny about the man who was terribly in need of a shave? He answered the door bell. The lady solicitor took one look at him, then screamed in terror: “Is — is — your M ATE in ?”

—A—Book Review

Are the newspapers "back Har.t” publishing the story of Bridoy Murphy? It ’s all about a woman who, under the influence of hyp­notism. remembers all about when she lived on this earth before My wife’s Pap is following it. I ’m curious to learn if there’s any­thing to this re-incarnation stuff, and have asked him to let me know.

If it turns out to be true, please run a notice for me: “Will not be responsible for any debts con­tracted during a previous exist­ence."

The Missus asks: "Was ye iver? ”

I’ve suggested to Pop that we insure ourselves against want by drawing up a will naming our­selves as the principal benefic­iary.

—A—Circumstantial Evidence

The abbott kidnap-murder case out here has aroused a lot of con­troversy over the justness of cir­cumstantial evidence.

We dte the case of the woman who was known to have bought more than a dozen .kifa-fvoof lip­sticks — but she claimed no one could claim that she had ever been on the receiving end of a Marathon smarckerooi

. . . and there was the boy who was accused of over-running the house with stray cats: He main­tained stoutly, " I only brought in ONE!"

I ’d like to be interviewed on T-V as one of those Persons With a Past Unfortunately, my bril­liant Past is still in the Future.

As the fellow says: Hope ev­erything good happens at your house.

W - H - YDOES OUR BANK PAY ONLY 116% ON SAVINGS? •'

.. Good question! Deserves a good answer.

Banking laws require that a large part of our deposits be held in cash on which we derive no income. Our invest­ments are limited to high grade securities paying a low return. In addition, we make only the highest type of loans on which we charge a very reasonable rate of interest. Because our income is limited in order to provide maximum security for your money we can pay only 14% on sav­ings . . . but,

Your deposit in our bank has one priceless ingredient of J which few investments can boast. Because our assets are

liquid, your money is available whenever you need it . . . J 100% on the dollar. We invite your account.

The Chatsworth Tile Factory expected to start making tile this Ann afternoon, after a winter shut- bach,

down. About eleven men will be given steady employment during the summer months as the de­mand for the products of the fac­tory have been increasing nicely and the stock on hand is getting low. During the winter months some extensive repairs were made in the machinery and kilns. Other improvements are in progress and it looks like the local factory will be a busy place this summer.

Meet the Mrs. in Business on "Main Street.” Chatsworth firms boast the Gentle Touch of Wo­man's Hand We doubt if you could find in any other town of this size as many efficient, indus­trious, accommodating, go-getting business women as may be met every day in Chatsworth Business Places.

T h e s w e e t w a y a ’56 Buiek rides on all sorts of roads is something you find nowhere else on wheels.

Capricious roads that twist and turn-unruly roads that rock and roll—tired roads, battered and beaten-they all seem to wear company manners the moment a Buick approaches.Why? Simply because Buick comes with what it takes to put any road on its best behavior — the com pletely ride-engineered com bination o f chassis, engine and autom atic drive that is obtainable in no other car.

And that’s gospel truth whether you drive a new Sp ec ia l , C en tu r y , Super or Roadmasteh.

No other car matches the firm, true tracking of Ruick’s own ride foundation—buttressed by brawny X-braced frame and torque-tube drive—cushioned on coil springs and deep-oil shock absorbers.No other has such width of tread and length of wheel­base within dimensions so trim and tidy that Buicks turn, park and garage more easily than smaller cars.

No other duplicates the assurance of steering, brakes and rear axle so precisely geared and gaited for the nimble handling that’s a safety “must’* in modem cars.

And certainly no other name plate promises the soaring sweep of power that wells from the big 322-cubic-inch V8 beneath every new Buick bonnet.Nor does any other automatic drive put power to its car’s rear wheels with the swift, unruffled pace of Variable Pitch Dynaflow*-and that goes double every time you "switch pitch" for whip-quick, safer passing.

But why stop to count reasons — when results are whatyou’re after?Wouldn’t you rather really feel Buick’s new "sense of direction” on straightaway, curves and comers?Wouldn't you rather relax in supreme comfort while tooling this powerful performer over roads you always hated to travel?Well, sir, we cordially invite you to drop in on us and do just that. 3Make it this week, won’t you? Sample the ride that has charms to win any old road — and get first-hand figures ou prices that make Buick owning a more posi­tive pleasure.

FORTY YEARS AGO April 6, 1916

Tuesday was an ideal election day and as a resultg by far the largest vote ever polled at a Chatsworth township election was cast. The total vote, both men and women, was 944, an increase of 86 over the vote of two years ago, which was the largest vote ever polled in the township up to that of Tuesday. There were several reasons for the large vote this year—several hot con­tests over township offices, and the "wet” and “dry” questions I

This is a very backward spring. Thus far there have been practi­cally no oats sown, While in most years the sowing has all been completed by this time. The fields are in no condition to com­mence work upon and the air is too cold for anythng to grow; trees are budding very slowly.

On Wednesday A. J. Lamb cap­tured a muskrat in the park near the bandstand. For the past three months there has been a pond of water in the park and it is thought that a water main may be broken, which causes this pond. The water must have caus­ed Mr. Muskrat to think that the pond was permanent and he was evidently going to make his fu­ture home in that spot, so as to be nearer civilization.

THIRTY YEARS AGO April 1, 1926

Richard Bennett of Chatsworth was one of the twenty-six Univer­sity of Illinois freshmen who sur­vived the elimination processes of the season's practices and receiv­ed the recommendation of Coach Cord Lipe for numeral awards. 26 numerals were awarded by th Athletic Board of Control for members of the "best freshman varsity basket ball squad.” The 26 are the pick of 360 freshmen who went out to practice last fall. Richard was a star player on the township high school basket ball team.

John A. Kerrins who has been engaged in the insurance and real estate business in Chatsworth for the past 25 years, has sold his in­surance business to Chas. F. Sha­fer, whose long experience will enable him to take care of the added business.
