Fourth, why have people grown so immune to thr laws of cur land? It was dvatlj pointe-1 out wßi.it rulings wet" given thes. people for their meetings and dinonstnations and despit ■ the fact that apj^als were lost in tour they went right ahead anil participated in unlawful d-monstiatons. Where is the esped for the law and order t>f our country? It was obvious in the TV prr.^ ntation that thousands and thousands of dollars had to be pump ’d into this demonst ation und protest. People came from all parts of the country to participate in this and that alone takes a lot of money let alone he other costs of such a display. Th" picture of the hat passing f*>r monvy clearly pointed out that very little money was to be raised this way. It is communist money that is backing th "sc demonstrations ? All along wv have been sympathetic with mayor Daley and the Chicago police, After hearing and seeing the planning and dirvd ads involved, one can be more sympithvtic. Despite the fad that not one shot was fired, certainly life and property were at stak ■ and the job done by the Ohicugo police certainly did everything they could to protect th” public. “MTiere did we go wrong” could bt- asked by many p'ople and finding an answer and solution would b" m arly impossible, but it would end such disgraceful dispays as ths country seen recently jn the city of Chica l • end all over the country from tim • to time.

So, use your imagination and park nutrition and flavor variety into breakfast sandwiches. If you have trouble getting your teenager to sit down and eat a good breakfast,, why not give them pick-up -and-go sandwiches tomorrow morning? For a starter, why not try Bacon Sauc-wtches » Just spread applesauce on hard rolls or toasted English muffins and t>>p with a ciju pie of slices of crisp bacon. Another fruit and meat combination that tiens lik» to eat "on the go" is well-drained crushed pineapple spi iad over aliues of ham on toasted yr plain bread. A sandwich made of a /ruit or veg-table and meat served with milk is the foundation for a good diet. The best time for replanting your p.'onies rs in September or October, preferably just before the killing frost. If your peonies are not flooring well, then this is the time so replant. Oue wny to ivpajnx is to dig up the entire clump, cut off the old leaves and divide the plant Into two or more portions. Y>mi frill have to dig d®-p to get all .the roots, and you'll find that a number of new buds have-fonded. With a sharp knifo divide the plant so that y<>u have at blast three to five buda on each division. Or. you can simply split the clump in half, thirds or fourths with a heavy spade white It is still in the soil. Thin dig up those portions you wish to transplant. Plant each peony in a new location. i The way th- new peonies are planted is important. Plant them three to four fi—t Hptlt fui u n * d plenty of room f r Jeveb pm< nt.

Most importantly, cover the plant so that the buds are no more than two inches below ground. Last week the w-ather was* a little chilly the first of the week. If you got out some of your winter clothes and threw on a pair of wool slacks I bet that it felt funny with difference in weight and feel, a little scratchy huh.
