in Elyria. The lack of proper hos
pital facilities was a contributing
factor to his and other young peo-
pies deaths in this particular
wreck. After this, Ed Allen devot-
ed his entire time and fortune to
the establishment of the Society,
first in Elyria and then in Ohio;
then the United States and finally
internationally.
Mr.. Treece then went on to out
line the general structure of the
Crippled Children's Society. The
National Society, with headquart-
ers in Chicago, consists of 54 state
and territorial Societies. The Ohio
Society is made up of 102 local un-
its.
The National level efforts are
directed primarily to research and
education. State level efforts are
devoted mostly to such things as
Camps, Schools and Clinics, while
the Local level gives direct serv-
ices to the handicapped child.
The Madison County Crippled
Children's Society was organized
in 1851 by the London Business
and Professional Women's Club,
during the regime of Mrs. John w.
Stroupe, and is still sponsored by
the group.
Floyd Williams, former presi-
dent and presently vice president,
has been elected a member of the
State Board of the Ohio Society of
Crippled Children.

Farm Bureau 1858
Sales SIS Million j

COLUMBUS-Sales volume for
the Farm Bureau Cooperative As
sociation in 1853 was $65, 100000,
it was announced Tuesday to
nearly 500 Ohio county Farm Bu-
reau Cooperative officials meeting
here for the 21st Annual Meeting
of the association.
The association serves as a pur-
chasing and manufacturing facility
in farm supplies, and as market
ing facility fro grain for some 260
elevators and distribution centers,
owned and operated by county
Farm Bureau associations through
out Ohio.
Net savings for the year were
$1,300,000, an increase of 100000
over 1852.
Volume for the year was second
highest on record for the Asso. In
50 volume was $67, 100000. Volume
in units actually increased during
the year. Decrease in dollar vol
ume was attributed to the drop in
farm income, as we'll as drop in
the price level of some farm sup
ply items.
Grain marketing accounted for
$25,O00,0OO, or about 38@S, of the
total volume. Petroleum sales were
approximately SIS, 100000, or 23@6.
Feed volume ranked third with
S11,O00000, or 17a6. Fertilizer,
seed and farm chemicals account
ed for 100000 or 14%S; farm
machinery, supplies and home
equipment for $5,O00,OOO or 80.
Distribution of savings was also
announced. The major portion -
$S85, ,OOO-will be returned to the
member associations as patronage
refunds. Dividends to preferred
shareholders will require about
Sl85,OO0 Nearly 100000 will be
PAID to the Federal Government
as Federal Income Tax: while the
remainder will be placed in the
associations contingency fund for
.he further protection of its share
holders, it was said.

In making her report, Mrs. Rea
emphasized the point that there
are enough children in the county
who need speech therapy to es-
tablish a speech school. However,
she stated, it is almost impossible
to find teacher for such a school.
Miss Ruth E. Armstrong, Arm
strong Road, gave a report on her
two years of audiometric testing
Of Madison County school children.
She made 2,088 tests in 1852 and
2,214 in 1858. Each year she has
done three grades and has done
three screenings on all of them.
After the third screening the cards
of the children with hearing loss
are sent to the State Department
of Health, which sends back the
cards of those children who should
go through the hearing clinic.
In the fall of 1852, 3O-4O chill
dren went through the clinic. Miss
Armstrong now holds 40 cards of
children who are scheduled to 90
through the Hearing Clinic for
1854, which is to be held March 10
beginning at 9 am. in the Madison
County Court House. The person.

which scholars are generally COM
ing to believe was a collaboration
of Shakespeare and John Fletcher.
In the 1905, the Pasadena
Playhouse presented all the plays
but Two Noble Kinsmen, and be-
came the first company ince
Shakespeare's own time to do
them all. The Antioch company
will add this play to complete the
group.
Probable division of the three
seasons will be the early romantic
plays to be presented this summer
and including such favorites as
Romeo and Juliet and Othello; the
rational or intellectual plays, in
which classification Lithgow places
King Lear and Macbeth; and the
later romantic plays, which will in
clude the period of Macbeth.

Yellow. the finest yellow rose of its time l888).
During 66 years, up to the present day,
constant crossbreeding has been carried on.
Expert hybridizers have travelled the world,
seeking plants that would be ideal to lend the
proper color, shape. size and strength. In the
process other marketable roses have been pro-
duced, but only occasionally. Most of the
test plants turn out to be $3.50 stuff, and
some are ''Skid Row. types - scraggly
weeds, or freaks that have leaves growing
