More important, they are raising a fine crop of young Americans— three hoys, Michael who is 6 months old, Jimmy, 2 and Terence, 4; and two girls, Jaquita, 5 years old, .um\ Gweneth, 7. The youngsters ha\ e their own favorite livestock: a pony, a goat, and a dog. The Zacherys moved to Indiana from Kentucky. They had been regular WLS listeners there . . . when they moved to Indiana, they found WLS broadcasts even more useful. "You have helped us in so many ways," Mrs. Zachery says. She points out how Dinner Hell Time, weather reports, farm news and other WLS programs filled their need for information on Indiana soils, weather and farming methods. Their favorite entertainment program is WLS Smile-AWliile at 5 a.m. and they are regular Prairie Farmer readers. It is on this home and family, and the homes and families like diem throughout Midwest America, that the microphones of WLS have been focused for 23 years. It is our intimate interest in their problems, the service and entertainment we give them, that have made them such loyal listeners to WLS . . . anil upon loyal listeners depend advertising results. 890 kilocycles, 50,000 watts, American affiliate.
