operation of this insurance has been
postponed until July, next year.

LOU NAU AGAIN
AT HOME

Monday was happy day for Lot
Nau, his good wife and t1s, kiddies
Yes, and for all the neighbors rount
about the Nau home, at $40 Minor
avenue. They were all in. The occa-
sion? Lou returned home after
eleven months absence. It was
eleven months, or just within 48 hours
of that time almost to the hour, since
Lou, with broken leg as the result
of fall from a scaffold, was takeT
to Mercy hospital, and the time he
was taken home Monday afternoon
1t was indeed a happy time for the
family to again be reunited under the
old family roof tree. And to say that
Lou's legion of friends are tickled to
know that his recovery is such as to
enable him to get about, even though
in small way, is stating it in a
mild manner. All are hoping that
his complete recovery will now come
quickly.
During his long sojourn at Mercy
Hospital Lou was showered with hun
dreds of messages of good wishes
gifts and visits by friends and ac-
quaintances. Especially was this true
at all the holidays Of the year, when
gifts and messages of good cheer
came in an avalanche. The gifts
included finely equipped radio, from
which Lou derived much pleasure dur
ing what would have otherwise been
many lonely hours and from which
he and the family today, at home,
continue getting much pleasure. Then
there were gifts and ren4embrances
of fruit, candy, cigars, pipes and to-
bacco, books, magazines and many
other things that go to brighten up
a sick room.
Many of the gifts received carried
no names, and those that did were so
numerous that Lou asks the Press,
through its columns, extend for him
his deep appreciation and thanks to
all his friends and acquaintance for
their many kind expressions of good
wishes, by message and gift.
