A former cabinet maker in Provo, Utah, Barton has been employed at Hill AFB for the last 8 years and works in manufacture and repair woodmill. Although 78 years old (but looking and acting 15 years younger) Barton has a sick leave record that is almost unbelievable. In the last eight years he's only taken three or four days of sick leave and none at all the last 2 years. "It's been a wonderful 50 years," says Barton "Course, I was luckier than most people, I got the best wife in the world." You want his secret for a happy marriage? "Look out for each other's interests and you'll get along very well that way." . 10-m- an lift 53 5 2? 3 Budget-Wis- e AXMINSTER RUGS Including a Heavy Rug Pad & Throw Rug Here is a genuine bargain.
