Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home DailL s. New York state is going to hang kidnapers when they are caught and convicted, which is about the on’y language those bandits will appreciate. Times are better, Chicago teachers are now only four and a half months behind in their salaries. They drew six million dollars this week but 14.000 teachers still have a total of $22,000,000 coming, A white stripe down the center of a black top road would help every one who drives a car at night. It’s queer thtat all concrete roads are so marked but many of the dark roads are not. Drop a line to the state highway commission, it may helpIf the Willshire-Decatur road, which is on the 1934 list for concrete could be let now and the grade built so it could settle during the winter, we would have a better road and it would provide work for many men in this vicinity during the next several months. Congressman Sumners thinks kidnapers ought to be whipped at a stake and then hanged, but the average stealer of human beings would probably prefer it the other way around hanged first and then whipped if the law feels that will help society. William Green, president of the great labor unions of America, estimates that more two million men have already been put back to work. Say what you will about the NRA but if this keeps up a few months, we will be wondering why we didn't get busy sooner for the depression will be over. Al Feeney, state public safety director has ruled that trucks on the highways must move 25 miles an hour and not to exceed 40 miles. That suggestion came from a committee of the truckmen and ought to be entirely satisfactory until we can have highways to be used by them exclusively. If you want to go some place and really want it to be interesting, spend a day or two at the Indiana state fair which opened today and will continue through next week I Don’t Suffer FROM E Stomach "Jitters" ■ Do you suffer from gras pains, heart burn, naunea, and other forms of stomach distress after you BH eat?

and over the following Sunday. It is reported that the exhibits are the most extensive ever shown there and the features are excellent. The tax rates here for next year will no doubt be some higher than this, but we can have some idea of how the buttle made a year ago has helped by looking over the proposed rates in other cities. In some of the southern Indiana county seats the rate will exceed seven dollars, while in Bluffton It Is over $4 and in Fort Wayne about that. We will not be eo bad off. Perhaps when those who have been destroying or taking magazines from the public library realize that it is a violation of law and punishable by a SIOO fine, they will be more careful. These journals are placed in the library for the use of every one who visits there and it should be remembered that they are entitled to the same pleasures of reading them as those who destroy the magazines. The NRA is going over because every one wants it to. We have had enough of unemployment, of bread lines and of disaster. The way to get away from it is to correct the wrongs. Put the men to work, do what you can to assist them in being comfortable and happy and the results will be the greatest era this nation ever saw That’s what we are fighting for. Monday is Labor Day and for millions it will be the brightest one in several years for many of them have gone back to their jobs and others have something in sight. The occasion marks a double holiday and for those employed but five days a week, three days of! freedom. The highways will again | be crowded with travelers and it will be necessary for every one who handles a steering wheel to watch carefully. Drivers of cars can assist in securing uniform crossing lights by urging it with their state representatives and the highway commission. The system used is different in various cities and many drivers have innocently violated the law because they don’t know where to look for the red and green flashers. Seems like they could be all the same and then a ' fellow would know what to look i for and where. o Many Reunions Scheduled For Summer Months « —— ♦ Saturday, September 2 Miimrna reunion, Franke Park.

=3WfcMM333agTT,.I?, -211 "'ll '* ■ Jllll ————■ CHAPTER FORTT-ONE i Cavanaugh was now on the way 1 to join her. His youthful recuperaI tion made him feel strong, elastic ■ | and full of energy. The star of his luck was riding | I high. At his own apartment he stopped ■ I for a show’er and a change of clothes. His irresistible energy had i given a whirlwind finish to the business with Mulrooney. The detective had not been I friendly but he had been square. Poletzki was in a cell and his brief confession of the Annette Santos murder in Mulrooney’s hands. Twilight had fallen definitely when Cavanaugh reached Leni’s home. She had not known when to expect him because he had not phoned. Nevertheless, she had ordered dinner prepared for two I against the chance of his coming. I Letters, telegrams, phone calls j and visitors were all shunted aside. All were annoyances and nuisances. She went into the dining room. The table wnth its glistening silverware and linen was big enough to seat a dozen. With the aid of Celeste and the butler, Leni re- ' moved the middle section and re- , duced the size by half. She went into the kitchen and | prowled into everything. Never before had she wanted to put on an 1 apron and cook. For years she had been so lonely and wretched — and now she was craving a pittance of the simple warmth of ordinary life. And here, tonight, in this un- . familiar-kitchen of her own, she felt herself glow and change into ' a new kind of woman. The love which she had enacted upon the screen—that artificial and unconvincing pretense—had miraculously awakened into reality and flooded her through with a new and golden form of life. Cavanaugh’s arrival was touched with a curious note of formality. The butler met him at the door, took his name, admitted him as though he were a casual visitor and went to announce his presence to i Leni. The dazed anguish of her remote and recent past had become an ecstasy of very youthful excitement and gratitude. The years the locust had eaten were restored. The secret misery of her hidden self was all melted away. She was as fresh, as delighted, as a girl of seventeen, with her first real beau. . . . In the living room after dinner they stood together, eager for the tenderness and intimacy that had not been possible before the servants. Cavanaugh had told her his story as best he could in fragments between courses. Lem stretched out her hands to him and he looked ' deep into her eyes from which the I tense look of suffering had utterly 1 vanished.

K , t around He came to Arkansas I in 1921. botifrttl the old mail hack i and began a tour of the state by taking pictures, repairing clocks, sewing machines and gun*. For a lime he drove a mule to his mail liack-home. but Uter traded it for a horse which died several w eeks after the trade. That was two years ago, Unable to buy another horse, he “picks up" rtd<* from motorists, who tow the home aloug their routes. 7-YEAR CHESS GAME ENDED Portland, Ore., —(VP)— Walter J. Dodge, Portland, recently completed a chess game that started in 1926, seven years ago. and believes he holds a record of some kind. His opponent was George S. Dodge, Montebello, Cal., a brother., The two men played a game, I which was one of three chess con-1 tests started by mail in 1922 be-1 tween three Stanford University' chums. The three pals decided' chess games by mail were at least one way of keeping alive their col- I lege friendship. Alan E. Ihiyne was third mem- ' her of the chess clique. He plays one of the Dodges while the other j ■reSts". The brothers compete in ! the third tilt. First contests were completed in ’ 1926, after a mere four years of I cogitation and planning of moves. I The next series, which was just; completed, took seven years. An I average of ten moves a year was made in the last game. Dodge rej ported. Six-inch cardboard chess boards, which can be folded, were used. Th positions of the men after each move were plainly marked and i I erased on the board. Then the board and a written explanation of the moves were place din an envelope and mailed away, to the other I player. o Get the Habit — Trade at Home

It was the most beautiful mo,- 1 ment of her life. Now was the time | he should ask her to marry him. i “How about your contract at the studio?” he said. i “It doesn’t matter. I’ll see Win- i gate tomorrow. There won’t be too t much trouble. It’s not as though I ] were going to another company.” t There was, she thought, a faint i cloud on his smooth brow. Silence. 1 A motor car passing softly out in < the street The ticking of his wrist i watch. The faint exhalation of cig- 1 arettes and soap. .. . “I want to marry you right away,” he said. ... 1 Intuition told her he was going to add to the statement She waited i silently. “The devil of it is,” he continued i reluctantly, “I am up against some- i thing I didn’t expect I—you—it’s i one of those things I don’t like to < talk about. It looks like we might ' have to wait . . . maybe for a long time. . . .” Just for an instant Cavanaugh avoided Leni’s eye. In the somber depths of his averted gaze she saw something like shame. That which had been masterful and masculine seemed to drop away from him in ever so slight a degree. “Why must be wait so long? What is wrong?” Leni said at last. A dim tide of color crept into his chdeks. “I—l can’t afford to get married. I am broke. I’ll have to make a killing first.” “Money—l have enough!" Leni said rapidly, as though she were dismissing a trifle. “You can have ft all.” “I don’t get it that way,” Cavanaugh answered instantly. She looked at him uncomprehendingly. In the depth c f ner generous heart this seemed a very silly business. After all. her background was European and the touchiness of American men about money was a mystery. Money to Leni Luneska was, in fact, a mystery. One either had it, or one didn’t. One lived in a palace —or starved. She was familiar with both extremes. The motion pictures In the last year had been a golden flood of money. The cash flowed in and it flowed out. The fact was that Leni actually had less in the bank and in bonds than she thought. The ice was thin but she had forgotten the cold water beneath. “I had plenty myself until today,” Cavanaugh said, his voice a little off balance. “I’ve got oldfashioned ideas. When I marry I expect to support my wife.” Leni knew, suddenly, that this was what she wanted. A sustaining quality of which money was the symbol. It had to come from the man! A vigorous impulse, automatic and over-mastering, hurled them into each other’s arms and locked
