In
this condition, this familiar building is hardly recognizable. But not to worry, the office of Bock Realtors is not being torn
down, it is simply getting a facelift. With a new facade
in its future, the building will soon look better than ever.

you think the lighting on the Logan County Courthouse dome looks
brighter these days, you could be right. According to
Dennis Reeves, the maintenance supervisor for the courthouse, the
floodlights shining on the dome were recently upgraded.
They are now more energy-efficient, with lower wattage bulbs that
actually appear brighter than the old style. In addition
to the lighting, the courthouse is getting new windows this
spring. That work is well under way.

This photo shows
a painting
entitled "Still
life with meadow
flowers and
roses." The Kroeller-Mueller
Museum in
Otterlo,
Netherlands, says new
X-ray research
has finally put
beyond doubt
that the
painting really is
by Vincent van Gogh. It
has also
uncovered in
greater detail
an art school
study by Van
Gogh of two
wrestlers
concealed on the
same canvas and
invisible to the
naked eye.

A malnourished woman in an emergency situation will
produce enough milk to nourish her baby. Milk production
is relatively unaffected in quantity and quality. When a
breastfeeding woman is malnourished, it is the mother
who suffers, not the infant.
For more information,
contact the breastfeeding peer counselor at the Logan
County Department of Public Health, 217-735-2317, ext.
