Kyle, DUSTY MILLER Writes Patter Cedarville people know Dr. Carl, Wilkins, of Xenia, but maybe some of them do not know that j the doctor’s brother, Dr. Leslie E. Wilkin, who died a few days ago, was known internationally. “Les” Wilkin became head of the Wilknit Hosiery Co., a selling company, and before war condi­ tions cut the source of materials, the company was the second larg­ est seller of stockings in the world. Both doctors grew up in Highland county, where their fa­ ther, Jacob Wilkin, was a prom-. inent teacher. By the way, “Jake*’ Wilkin, fat* in the 00V, is still living. i 1 went through Cedarville f our . times within the week, Pennsying speedishly. Though my glance at the village was fleeting, my heart was in it, for the Bible says “where your treasure is there w ill; your heart be.” But even a loving ■ heart doesn’t stick ’round long when it is being moved forward a t 70 mph. One of the recollections tha t has stayed with me always is that of watching the trains in Cedarville from Grandfather Mil­ ler’s windows. Some of the Her­ ald family know that my Grand­ father Miller was Dr. J. M. Mil­ ler, who died in Cedarville in 1S8 *, December 8. Though I was a child, I remember going with him ta call on patients in and around the town. And I know the date on the city hail (they built it as the “opery house") without looking a t it. I watched the masons lay the brick. I was in five states last week, but no place did I see more fer­ tile or attractive farm land than I saw out the train window near Cedarville. I drove through the “muck” areas around South Bend, where the chief crop is pepper­ mint and spearmint. Hundreds of acres are sown in mint, a crop strange to an Ohioan who knows, with .a rolling pin in her hand! corn, wheat, oats and soybeans, ; ‘ School, children are made dizzy Mint culture calls fo r special;, things—implements for planting and tending and thrashing and . squeezing. Within the week I crossed Michigan's “tutor” coun- - try, and.looked down upon the checkerboard pattern of Pennsyl­ vania's farm country, famed, and justly, the world over. When I’ve been-to the dining car on a train and paid $ 1.75 f0r three thin slices of bacon, and get back to my seat and look out the window and see a bunch of pigs in a field near Cedarville, I stand up and salute. Putting in storm windows, it is argued, is a summertime job, but that's like the-Arkansas trav- elder’s roof th a t doesn't leak in dry weather—cold doesn’t come in the windows in the summer­ time. I suppose the world’s most piti­ ful spectacle is a husband doing house-cleaning with his wife standing near, leaning on a broom ’N PLEASE SEND tOTS OF Sun6em bread It’s smart to keep plenty of Sunbeam Bread on hand all the time.

Domestic Hint: When the house-cleaning fever strikes in on Friend Wife and she wants you to heat the rug, hang the rug carefully on the clothes line and beat it—down town. You thought, did you, of the irony of having Purdue univer­ sity, a leading engineering school^ of the" world," erect “gyinnasium bleachers too weak to stand the strain of a capacity crowd? And isn’t it just as strange that en­ gineers who are supposed to know more about explosives than anybody‘else would permit crowds to stand near enough to become victims of a horrible catastrophe ? Out the train window I saw four colored boys headin’ for the “Crick” with-fishin’ poles. World problems, not even Molotov or Henry Wallace, bother guys like that! APPROACHING MARRIAGE Mr. and Mrs. J.
