In over hall a century ii. family doctor, Frank I". Wiedemann. 82, of rerre Baute. Indlsnl. set into the mblt of sharing in the Joys and troubles of his patients. That's how he came to hand out sympathy and advice along with pills and pre- Wggtlsvlhaen he observed his IIILESI. birthday it was perfectly natural for him to share that occasion too.
He did it by cancelling all un- paid bills owed him by his patients. How did Doc feel about cancel- img those unpaid I.O.U.'s? He said he felt good inside of him and thought it was a good way to cele- brute "my many happy birthdays 3; I physician." 1
In recent years this doctor can- fined his practice to office and rails and diagnostic work. He ex- pects to continue in practice for at IQBIL another 20 years.
m that connection, he is plan- ning a trip to Europe as a kind of special celebration of his annivers- ary and while there he will observe ihe latest medical and surgical techniques at all the big medical :enters. I

Recently She received her degree and lo and behold, lin- ished first in the class of 350.
But there's more to the story. Mrs. Stanley was elected to the Phi Beta Kappa. high scholastic honorary, and got a 3100 8Ch03F-T- ship.
Well, not many grandmothers can say that.
