COLUMN ♦ —— — • Farmers who sign the new wheat contract may designate a beneficiary to receive the adjustment payments in the event of the death or disappearance of the contract signer, according to County Agent Archbold. This provision has been put into the contract especially to meet the situation that would arise if a contract signer should die after he has signed a contract, it is similar to naming a beneficiary under an insurance contract. Under the original contract there was usually a long legal delay in such cases before the wftldow or dependents of a producer could receive the adjustment payments in event of death. The beneficiary provision in the new contract will do away with much of this delay. The signer is not required to designate a beneficiary, but he may do so if he wishes. There are. in general, three situations in which the payment would go to the beneficiary. The first is the case of death. The second is that of disappearance. If a signer disappears for six months and fails to make a claim for his share of the adjustment payment, then the payment goes to the beneficiary. The third situation is the one where a signer is declared incompetent by a court of competent jurisdiction. ■ — o-— — • Cat and Robin Pals Kingston. Mass.

SUMMER WORK AIDS CREIGHTON FOOTBALL MEN _____ Omaha, Neb. — (UP)— “Control!-1 ed labor," a new wrinkle in football coaching technique, is working out well at Creighton university. Conceived by Head Coach March- j inont Schwartz, the plan had both a constructive and "preventative" i angle. At the cvnselueion of epring football practice, Schwartz interviewed each varsity candidate regarding summer employment.

CHAPTER XIX Linda fell asleep. Jerome decided they were being shiftless and lazy in not making smoke signals from the high point of the island. After Papa Gorilla’s first nocturnal visit they had not dared wander about and when they had established friendly relations a sort of sloth descended on them. Then he began to wonder if it was entirely sloth. There was a fascination in their idleness, he told himself. But now as he faced the situation frankly this alibi did not ring true. It was something else. Another factor had become responsible for their acceptance of an isolation that alternated languor with such terrifying episodes as had just occurred. They were beginning to like it. There was a poignant charm in their detachment from a world overcharged with vexations large and small. Not only had they both been sick and tired of the futile lives they had been leading but more recently harrassed at the state of their family and personal affairs. Here on this island nothing mattered, so far as the outer world was concerned. But this was not enough to satisfy Jerome's natural candor with himself. He knew that he had been leaving out the real reason for their content with conditions that would be terrible to almost any other young man and woman of their class. They were falling in love with each other. Not in the usual more or less conventional way. Primitive impulses were growing in them. The isolation, return to absolute simplicity, sharing of danger that was terrifying and bizarre. Surmounting these dangers together had wrought a change in them. The civilized relationship was being laid aside and in its place was growing a sympathy that ignored social traditions. . . That, Jerome told himself, was the danger here, and it must not occur. Sooner or later they must return to their former social lives, unless violently interrupted. Barring such violence, life here on the island was simple and natural. That of civilization had become like walking a slack wire—a constand effort at equilibrium. The shadows began to deepen. Linda slept on. Jerome went to the cook house to prepare supper. There was no lack of quantity and variety of their wholesome tropic fare and he reflected that if this thing kept on much longer they would put on weight. Linda had complained that she was doing so, even worse she could not gauge the Rubenesque process without scales or clothes to warn her. One thing was certain, she was getting sweeter and lovelier. The petulance had gone from her face, and its look of hard intolerance. Her long grey eyes, with their double fringe of lashes that were much darker than her hair, had lost their scornful mockery, and a nose that nature had tilted provocatively re--1 mained that way without an added aggravating slant. The boyish chin was merely firm and not defiant, and a mouth unshaped for sneers had discarded them to become smiling and seductive. As he visualized the improvement in these several traits and i turned his omelet he was horrified i to hear a piercing scream. He i rushed out in time to see the bowed i and neckless back of the Racketeer i bounding across the cleared space under the trees, making for the J jungle. The mischievous ape i clutched in one paw a fluttering | pennant of white, and in the other ' a smaller one of pink. I It looked back with a derisive ! chatter, and at the same moment Linda burst into Jerome's field of - vision in hot pursuit. She was ! armed with the stump of the broken I oar. and all that she had on was the one stocking and her stylish shoes. But she was too angry and too desperate to care anything about that. A trail of abuse streamed out behind her. “You miserable, sneaking monkey . . she cried. “Drop it! . .

At the same time Schwartz does j not recommend those old etandby* of All-AmericatKi peddling ic- - and j life guarding. Tpe former doesn’t develop th<- footwork enough, ac I cording to Marchie. and the latter is courting a muscle bound condi tion if the man swims too much in connsctfon with his job. 1 i 1 o Trade In a Good Town — Decatur
“Cha-cha ... chikoo ... yah ... the Racketeer retorted. Jerome grabbed up an empty bottle and hurled it, although the range was over long. Linda let drive with the oar-butt. Both missies fell short of the target. The Racketeer gave his wild derisive yell and the jungle absorbed him. Linda whirled behind a low bush. She raged at Jerome over the top: “You go in and smash those cursed chests one after the other. Never mind the clothes. I want a gun. There must be some." “All right." he answered, and went into the house. He did not attack the chests but with a fragment of bottle glass he cut out the soft old Spanish leather that upholstered two of the high backed prelate’s chairs. Museum pieces that had served generations before perhaps as part of the chancel furniture of a cathedral. Linda called through the verandah jalousies: “That filthy ape not only grabbed off the little left on

me but he pulled my hair. Get me a gun out of one of those moldy old crates. He’s coming back pretty soon and then I’ll fix him.” "Coming back . . .?” “Os course. Now that he’s got an edge on us he means to be our prime pest." “How has ha got an edge on us?” Jerome asi-ed. “He knew he had us scared before Papa ran him up a tree. When he started to puff out his chest and beat it you should have thrown a big rock at him.” “No rocks there. . . Jerome had lain the pieces of fine soft leather on the table and was cutting out the thongs with which to fasten them together. Linda went on: “Something's got to be done about him. Each fresh trick he gets away with will make him bolder. It’s all hooey that gorillas take no interest in females not of their species. He pulled my hair exactly like some fresh cub of a schoolboy, but harder. He’ll be sneaking up and pinching me next.” Jerome tossed out the skirt he had extemporized. “Put that on. Yes. something’s got to be done
Auto Horn Ban By U. S. Before 1945 Forecast COLLINGSWOOD. N. J (U.R) — | ■ The day is coming when automo- j biles will glide along softly and smoothly -- with horns ami all noisy kaaxona things of the pest. Such io the prediction of Mayor Joseph II- Van Meter, of Collings wood. Van Meter believes the horns will be barred before 1945 by federal law. "All this blowing and tooting belongs to an age gone by," said the mayor. “And if we tried to do without it, we'd soon find that most of it is unnecessary and mighty hard on the nerves.
about the Racketeer. The old man has kept him squelched and now he’s tickled to find somebody he thinks he can bully. But it’s certain there sre no firearms in those chests.” “Why so?” The old cordovan painted leather had faded but was decorative. “The Dueno wouldn’t be fool enough to leave firearms where anybody who might see fit to visit the island in his absence could get them. There are some bad hombres floating up and down this coast. Criminals and refugees and political fugitives.” "Well, there may be tools so that we can build a dug-out or something. I tell you, Jerry, that ape is going from bad to worse.” “I might make a raft of bamboo to float us across to the mainland. The prevailing wind is on the coast.” “Then let’s get busy.” “Tomorrow. It’s getting dark." He spoke reluctantly.
: “You don’t seem so hot about it." I “I’m not. I hate to expose you to r the hardship and danger of shoving off on a flimsy raft and landing heaven knows where or in the midst ; of whom. We might run into some- • thing worse than this bad actor of a cub gorilla.” ’ “Is that all?” Linda asked. "No.” He gave her a level look. ■ "You know how I feel about all i this .. . and you. I don’t want you I to leave this Eden as the First i Woman left hers. It’s still a pretty tough world out there.” • She stepped closer and laid her ; hand on his shoulder. “You are a . good egg, Jerry. A stouter fella i than I am.” “I love you, Linda.” , “I know you do. So do I love you. ' Does anything else greatly matter?” , “A tremendous lot, and for that ; very reason. If we weren’t both , broke it would be different. I sim--7 ply can’t let you go back into the r world mated to a pauper and with ; nothing sure ahead. We don't know what might happen.” “I understand, dear . . (To Be Continued) J Copyright. 1138. iLing Pottum Syslna
