But in the spring. Bourbon was accidentally poisoned, and more than 50 of her human friends called on her during the week as she lay dying.

Since her death, the Kings have been searching for another St. Bernard, and finally, Sunday, Jeannie Sutherland Walker appeared at the King home with one she had brought all the way from Great Bend. Theta hopes this one will become the second unofficial greeter of the school kids on South 50th Street. Incidentally, this one has been named Brandy. disagree about whofesomeness of KP The House Appropriations Committee may think KP duty is "wholesome and character- building," but the guys who peel the potatoes aren't so sure.

"It really doesn't teach anybody anything," said Spec. 4 Edwin McCarthy, 20, of Columbus. Ohio. "It's a hassle for the individual and the section he's in." added McCarthy, who's stationed at Ft. Devens, Mass.

The House panel's comment on the advantages of kitchen duty came Monday as the group rejected $125 million of a defense appropriations bill earmarked to hire civilians to perform KP and cleaning duties. The committee recommended that such civilian programs already under way be eliminated by April 30 in all services. "What I want to know," said a retired Army colonel, "is how many of those people on the committee have done that work. If they think it's charac- me. It's demeaning" The colonel, from San Antonio, said that if the government hopes to build up an all-volunteer force, eliminating KP "is one of the best incentives I can think of." Another former soldier added: "What those congressmen don't understand is the way GIs feel about KP.

A bunch of hired civilians can quit, but the soldier has to do what he's told or he goes to the QBQ MINERALS The only free choice 'mineral program for all livestock.

About 3 per cent of the state's corn grain acreage had been harvest, slightly behind schedule. About 50 per cent of the sorghum acreage had turned color and about-12 per cent was matured and 2 per cent harvested.

Soybean prospect were reported as favorable with plentiful soil moisture in the major producing areas. "I started as an elisted man and pulled more than my share of KP," he said. "Darned if I could see anything wrong with it sort of like helping mom in the kitchen. It's a necessary part of military duties." Farm income up in 1971 state reports TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) Net farm income in Kansas in 1971 was 9 per cent above 1970 and the highest in records dating back lo 1949, the State Crop and Livestock Reporting Service said Monday.

Approval expected of revenue-sharing WASHINGTON (AP) The Senate approaches final passage of the $34.8 billion revenue-sharing bill today after its sponsors beat down efforts to increase aid to big, urban states. Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield predicted final passage of the massive bill by late afternoon. It has been debated by the Senate six days. The most bitter floor fights have centered on how the big pot of be divided among the states. The Senate Finance Committee came up with a formula generally increasing the rural and poorer states' share over the large, industrial states compared to the apportionment granted in the House version.

Sen. Jacob K. Javits, made a final effort to change the committee's plan with a new method of distribution to aid the 'urbanized states. He lost on 57-27 vote. Under his amendment, $1.5 billion would have been added io the bill over the five-year period the program covers.

Also, funds would have been distributed on the basis of the degree of urbanization of the states.

NO DOWN CALL Wayne Archer, Realtor 365-2211 (365-3407 evenings) By JOHN CUNNIFF AP Business Analyst NEW YORK (AP) Many an old Boston fortune has been preserved over the decades by researching a fundamentally strong company, investing in it, and then putting the securities away in a vault. There lay the certificates untouched, radiating dividends over the years, reproducing themselves through stock splits from time to time, thus keeping the family and its bankers and lawyers fed and content. In recent years; however, that philosophy came into disrepute.

In many instances bad securities were vaulted away with the good, and so the returns often were found to be less than they would have been Allen County Hospital Monday, September 11 33 patients, 2 babies Admitted Howard Copening, Iola; Mrs. Otto Lair, Piqua; Carl Saferite, Neosho Falls; Mrs. George Pickering, Yates Center; Mrs. Bobbie Morris, Chanute; Barbara Vest, Iola; Mrs. Milo Hakes, Yates Center.

with an occasional dusting. In the past 20 years especially, the performance craze spread through the market, enveloping the portfolios not only of individual investors but of trusts, pensions, mutual funds and other institutions. In-out trading was the fad. Now performance seems to have had its day. As anyone who casually follows the market knows, many of the institutional and private investors who amassed fortunes by turning over the portfolios 100 per.

cent year are broke. And they went broke blindly follow; ing the quick trade creed. And so we have a reiteration of that old Boston philosophy by the Boston Consulting Group, which is a management consulting organization within the multibillion Boston which is a descendant of Boston Safe Deposit and Trust. Says Bruce Henderson, BCG president, "The stock trader can rarely win. The long-term investor can." No equivocation, no asterisks, no broad exceptions.

But the reasons have changed some over the years. "Tax laws and inflation combine against the trader. He loses too much capital in taxes," he says. "Investing becomes a house game in which the odds are stacked against him as they are at the race track or the casino." Each time the trader sells at a profit he pays a tax, to say nothing of a broker's fee. But the long-term investor not only pays taxes at a lower rate but he pays only once instead of two or three times over the same time span.

If securities are traded rather than held, says Henderson, the income tax removes capital that otherwise should be compounding.

Of course, securities held in the vault are hurt by inflation too but not by taxes or broker's fees.

Rather than succumbing to the performance philosophy, Henderson suggests investors might consider their securities in somewhat the same way a real estate buyer treats his investment. He holds for appreciation rather than trades. This outlook has limitations, Henderson concedes. It does nqt apply to savings bank deposits. Savings, he states, almost always shrink in buying power because of inflation, taxes and interest rates kept low by law.

"Current tax laws make it nearly impossible for anyone to save enough from income tofi- nance retirement," he states. He claims that finance retirement through savings an individual would have to save one-third of his life income. Luncheonette Specials For Wednesday Roast Beef Meat Balls in Tomato Sauce PARAGRAPHS Paul Friskel Nothing is more depressing than to be judged old before your time. In this day when the average life span has been lengthened so greatly it is important that we be able to make the most of those additional years. There are several ways in which we can help nature keep us from getting to act and appear old before it is time.

Two of the things which age a person most rapidly are boredom and inactivity. All of us know men who have literally wasted away after they retired from business. If you are retiring, don't just stop everything. Keep busy. Don't quit the world about you just because the calendar says you are getting old.

Make it a point to see your doctor every six months, more often if you have a bothersome ailment. It's a lot easier for the physician and cheaper for you if he has a chance to diagnose and treat your problem in its early stages. As we grow older, our bodies require less food. Yet, too many wives cook, and too many husbands eat as they did years ago. Older people should discuss their diets with their physician, make a firm effort to balance their meals and avoid excesses in both food and drink.

It may go against the grain not to be the first up in the morning and the last to bed at night, but reasonable rest is one of the best ways to keep looking youthful and feeling vigorous. Both our body-and-y our- brain- can become weary from overwork and over-exertion. One should exercise moderately and regularly. This can take the form of effort you enjoy: walking, riding horseback, golfing, bowling, etc. Exercise is the best way to keep all parts of your body in good working order.
