107-Year-Old Feels Like Spring Chicken Seeking To Better Granddad's Record CHICAGO (UP) — At the age of 107 Mrs. Charlotte Bonner said she feels like "a spring chicken.” The sparkling, white * haired woman asaid she still has a goal in life. She wants to better her grandfather’s longevity record. “He lived to be 114,” she said. Mrs. Bonner has outlived three husbands and five children. She’s led a full life, she reflected, and she’s done just about everytliing she wanted to do. But she’d still like to take a trip to France or South America, she said. “Maybe I’ll take that trip to celebrate when I beat my grandfather’s record,” she said. Longevity has been attributed to many things—clean living, strong cigars, even corn whisky. But Mrs. Bonner attributes hers to two things—faith in God and chocolate milk. “It’s my favorite drink,” she said. “And it must be good for you. I’ve been drinking it for more than a century.” A tiny woman with keen blue eyes, Mrs. Bonner has lived since 1952 at the Oak Forest Infirmary. “But I’m not really infirm,” she said. “It’s just that I have no place else to live, and no family left.” She propells herself about the institution in a wheel chair visiting other inmates, who seem to benefit from her witticisms and her lively interest. Mrs. Bonner was bom in Chicago ih 1850. She never knew her mother, who died in childbirth. Her father, a Frenchman, took her to France at the age of 8. and she was educated in a convent school there. ' She was married in Chicago in 1871, and she said she’d “never forget my first honeymoon.” The Chicago fire destroyed her wedding presents and furniture. “And we had no fire insurance,” she said. “But I have very little to com-

And I still trust in the Lord. “God is the best doctor.” Com Planting Far Behind In Indiana Only Fifth Planted >■ Up To Last Weekend LAFAYETTE (UP)—Farm experts said today that' ony onefifth of Indiana’s .corn crop had been planted by last weekend.

Robert E. Straszheim, agricultural statistician at Purdue University, said 20 per cent of corn planting was completed, compared with 68 per cent a year ago, and 8 per cent of soybeans planted, compared with 39 per cent a year ago. Heavy and steady rain and flooding streams were responsible for the fact field work was running 12 days behind normal, Straszheim said. "Farm work was further hampered by continued rain and many streams were at flood stage in central and southern counties,” the weekly crop report said. “Surplus moisture is reported In 87 per

cent of the counties, with ample reported in the remaining 13 per cent. “Field work was possible only 9 per cent of the time. Some corn was planted at the close of the week in scattered northern areas with favorable drainage. “The firstnmtting of alfalfa has started but weather has been unfavorable for drying and some fields are being made into grass silage. “Tomato plant setting is 16 per cent complete. Rains have interfered with fruit spraying but as a result of the rain pasture condi-' tions remain at high level.”
