Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. Archaeologists claim they have, uncovered evidence that proves civilization is close to 10,000 years old. Yep, and we've come all the way from the dark ages to the radio and automobile. Senator Pope may run as an independent in the November election. He is considering the proposal. Chances are if he did. he : would split the vote and thereby elect the Republican candidate. The current issue of the Atlan- i tic Monthly devotes its pages to a resume of the Mexican situation and point with alarm to the trouble beyond the Rio Grande. It has always been that way. more or less, the situation becoming, more serious with the seizure of i the American oil properties. Floyd Hamilton and Ted Walt- ■ ers, notorious outlaws have been | captured in Texas. They both seem glad that their life of crime has come to an end and Hamilton says he wants to go to the electric chair and have it over. They have lived wasted lives and instead of being worth while citizens, can be put down as common punks. — The Daily Democrat is pleased . with its increase in circulation. Not that any paper is perfect or , that it can’t be improved from day to day, it is nevertheless encourag-1 ing to have the demand for the i paper increase. Its purpose is to serve the community with the news and happpenings of the day. , We appreciate the patronage and goodwill. = ' ; The proposed budget and tax, levies are being published this I week. Formal hearings will be! held next month and the final i rates will be fixed after the conn- i ty tax adjustment board takes ac-. tion. With levies reduced in the townships because of the distribution of the gross income tax for teacher's salaries, the rates may! be lower than a year ago. Local Boy Scouts are being giv- ■ en an outing and treated to the ] beauties of southern Indiana with a trip in and around Turkey Run. ■ Scout leaders, including Sylvester ' Everhart, Walt Gladfelted, Dr.' i Fields and Bryce Thomas are do-; ing their good turn and of course enjoying the camporee as much as the boys by accompanying them. It's a fine thing to do. Associate with the youths, be pals to them and guide them along in the right way. We admire the public, service rendered by the scout leaders. Included in a page of pictures of the American Legion parade at Indianapolis is one ot the Decatur Girls band with caption lines, "Smartly dressed and stepping along at a lively clip, even near the end of the long parade were members of the Decatur Girls' band.'' The Star also said. "The young women blended their stir-

ring music with that of many othier musical units that drew the ' ears ot music lovers among the many thousands of spectators that were along the line of march." Os I course Decatur Is proud of the t Girls build. t Telephone operators are put to ‘ u rigid test frequently in performing their duties. When tension is high, when they know that the J calling parties are relating traged- ) les and disasters, which often con- ’ concern their friends or immediate • families, they must remain on the l job and dispatch the calls in the i ■ wink of an eye. Last week when | the wires were carrying the sad news of the death of Mr. Ettinger, manager of the local company, the girls were wonderful in rushing i calls through to the hospitals. 1 newspaper and individuals. They 1 | did it like soldiers, remained at the switchboard and served those , who were anxious to talk. We compliment the local office force and , for the spendid service always rendered this newspaper, we ex- ■ | press our appreciation. FINE RACING PROSPECTS Hoosiers who like to watch the < trotters and pacers cavort on the ' fairgounds track may look for- i ward to an unusually interesting ■ card for this year's event. The I complete list of entries for six . days of racing, beginning Saturday, Sept. 3, promise a spirited array of contests. George M. Gahagan, The Star's race expert, asserts that the program never has been equaled in i former meets held at the state fair. That statement should be sufficient to insure capacity crowds. The entry list is so large that fair attendants are confronted with a problem in caring for the horses to compete in the various races. One factor contributing to the I excellent prospects for this year's i program is the absence of conflictI ing Grand Circuit attractions. Frequently the competition of state fairs and racing meets elsewhere has divided the equine talent and the Indiana fair has had only a portion of the speedsters that otherwise would have sought the at- , tractive prizes offered. There will . be no major event elsewhere durI ing 'state fair week, so that the : cream of the crop, to borrow a toj bacco phrase, will be present to | thrill the Hoosier railbirds. The Horseman Futurity for all trotters will be a banner race for the Labor day program. In that I event the crowd will have an op- ; portunity to watch the perlorm- ; ance of McLin, famous Hamble- ; lonian winner. A purse of more than $5,000 should provide compe- ! tition worthy of the prize, for i which some of the country's best i will make a bid. Greyhound, the | trotting champion, will be a TuesI day attraction. The Fox stake should set the pace for Wednesday's program, with other stirring ; battles down the stretch scheduled during the entire meet. The expected success of this banner racing card should be sufficient evidence ' that pari-mutuel betting is not necessary to provide an artificial stiI inulant for the annual program.— I Indianapolis Star. o I ♦ * Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee ♦ ♦ Silk Umbrella ■Do not open a wet silk embreila to dry it, as this causes the silk to stretch and become stiff.

To the Editor: That Man Again Recently the Saturday Evening Post printed an article written by, Alva Johnson In which it was over- I ly implied, among other fanciful flights of exaggeration, that since Franklin Roosevelt's election to thol Presidency, his eon, Jimmy’s insurance income had soared from a compartively few thousand dollars a year to a few million a year. The inference was that Jimmy had taken advantage of his father’s post-i Don and capitalized on it. However, later, in Collier's Week-, ly, Jimmy with the aid of his income ; tax returns, indubitably disproves all of Alva Johnson's libelous state-, inents. One by one he shows the writer's assertions to be false and wholly without grounds. To Decatur citizens these articles,' besides being just good news stor-1 ies. should have a sort of balsam affect to the smarting sentiments they felt a few years ago when Alva Johnson took ft upon himself to ; write another story. It was as most of you remebber. [ sometime before the repeal of the : Eighteenth Amendment. A citizen of Decatur wrote a letter to an editorial writer of the New York 1

CHAPTER XXV Tod reached up and caught hold of Whitqfy’s hand and pulled her down beside him on the red sofa. She sighed softly, partly with fatigue and partly with contentment, and put her head against his shoulder and closed her eyes. She said: “You are the nicest person in the world, Tod . . . when I am gay you stimulate me and when I am bored you amuse me and when I am tired you rest me.” He said. “Do I? You make ma feel a little like a Boy Scout but I guess it’s all right.” His arm beneath her shoulders began to tremble and he flexed it until it stopped. Her hair smelled fragrant and as if it had very recently been washed and it was soft against his cheek. He knew that this was perhaps the last time they would ever sit this way and he wanted frantically to prolong the moment and he didn't know how to do it. She said: “I didn’t mean to make you feel like a Boy Scout... you are not in the least like one, really .. Then she said, and coming so abruptly on the heels of his own thoughts, it was disconcerting: “I wish all the rest of my life could be exactly like this moment. I wish I could always feel inside of me just the way I do now.” Tod laughed a little. “Nutl" he said, his voice blurred, a little embarrassed. “Just how do you feel now ... inside of you?” “Oh, happy and peaceful and sort of glowing. Like this room. Whether you want to admit it or not there’s something about firelight. Tod, and one day ended and another day not yet begun and two people together who love each other dearly . . Tod said: “Do you love me dearly, Whitney?” “You know darn well I do.” “How dearly, Whit?” She made her head more comfortable against his shoulder. The firelight flowed over the silver straps of her sandals and the bright flowered silk of her frock where it slithered away from her crossed knees. “Very dearly. But you know that.” Tod breathed shortly. Held the arm about her shoulders rigid. Easy to say: “Enough to marry me, darling?” And if he did there was a crazy chance that not yet knowing about Scott and Olivia, she might say: “Yes, Tod, enough to marry you.” And once having said it she would stick to it. He could count on that. And she did love him in a way. She had loved him quietly, without passion, all her life. It would, because of that, be comparatively easy for her to slip into marriage with him. And utterly disastrous . . . He said his voice washed dry of emotion: “By the way, I ran into Olivia today. We had tea together. Did you know she was divorcing Scott, Whit?” He felt her jerk forward, saw her breath stop for a moment, and then push out between her lips again in a little gasp. Saw her fold her hands together and turn to him slowly, her face surprised into a funny, unimportant ncy-expression. She said: “But he wouldn’t. We talked about it once and we both agreed . . ." She stopped helplessly. “I said she was divorcing him. I guess you didn't understand me. There’s a difference.” “Oh. Yes, of course. It's not at all the same. But why? I mean why should Olivia divorce Scott?” “She's going to marry someone else.” “Oh,. no. You must, be wrong. That’s just plain silly, Tod.” “Nevertheless that's what she told me. She said, ‘when I come back I’m going to marry Spencer Scofield . . Whitney began to laugh. Than she stopped and frowned and snook her head. “But that’* absurd.

Herald Tribune remonstrating him in a wellimannered way for his anti- ' prohibition editorials. Our citizen . argued that perhaps in the larger motropolitian areas the editorials i were apropos, but that In the smaller towns throughout the country 'a great amount of sentiment favi ored the dry law and the people j observed it fairly well. The editor, oeteuslbly needed a I sensational story, because be sent i Alva Johnson to TJeeatur to write a story about our city. Well most of you know just what happened. I The story he wrote was hailed over ! the entire nation at, a great sociological document. I r n jt he depicted Decatur citizens doing just about every infamous so1 cial act that could be thought of. He left the Impression that our high school students were incontinent, unworthy, and wholly without any enterprising spirit, even going eo | tar as to hint that it was a common sight to see students going to ' school with flasks on their hit*. ' After that story it's a wonder to me if the rest of the nation didn't actually believe that instead of putting ink in the school wells our i school teachers tilled them with I whisky. ■ So ft seems that Mr. Johnson’s recurrent stories are not by accident. rather, it seems, he has a pecular quirk, of technique which to appease he must write stories ot the grossest exageration. Men who write storoies of such nature must be entirely insensate to the immense harm their writing causes. They should In some way, be sensored. It was a foitunate

Spence is short and placed and sort of fat. She couldn’t be in love with him . . .” “ I didn't say she was in love with him. I said she was going to marry him. He’s crazy about her and after two years of being married to Scott who isn’t she seams to think it will be a nice change.” His voice sounded foolish and he stopped speaking. Whitney stood up suddenly and walked away from him. She walked across the room and stood looking out the window and after an interval, during which neither one of them spoke, she came back and sat down in a deep chair opposite him. He saw that her hands were trembling violently new and that she had folded them together and laid them quietly in her lap. A feeling of disaster rose in him and flowed over him. He thought: “This finishes anything there might ever have been between us and she knows it. Or perhaps she doesn’t even know that if it hadn't been for this that there might have been something between us. No, she probably doesn’t even know that.” He leaned forward and stared at her, trying to see her face better but she kept it turned a little away from him and all he could see was the averted line of her cheek and part of her mouth. He said finally, his voice harsh: “Well, aren’t you glad? Are you happy about it? Aren’t you completely delighted? For God’s sake, why don’t you say something and not just sit there...” She said: “Why didn’t you tell me before? You have known it all the evening but you didn’t tell me.” “I know I didn’t. I don’t know why. I meant to. But I have told you now.” Then he said, his voice even, no compulsion in it any more; “I suppose this means that you and Scott.. She turned her head and looked at him then. And answered him slowly, without emphasis. “Why, yes, Tod ... I suppose it does.” Scott wanted to come to New York but Whitney said she preferred to go to Boston. Their telephone conversation which arranged it this way was brief, almost businesslike. Short, clipped phrases in pleasant, unstirred voices. Whitney said: “I’ll come for the week-end ... I've been promising Aunt Hester to for months. I can get a train this afternoon around five.” “That’s fine. I’ll meet you.” That was all. It seemed strange that after all these months they should speak to each other casually like this, arrange to see each other calmly and unemotionally. The train that carried her toward Boston that afternoon whirled through a deepening spring twilight. She wore a dark brown tailored suit and yellow linen blouse and a brown felt hat. Her square, monogrammed purse was brown and matched her narrow alligator pumps. She pressed her head against the clean linen square on the back of her Pullman chair and tried to assemble her thoughts into some kind of order. They were, and had been since the evening before, chaotic. It was as though her life, which for some time now had been tranquil and not unhappy, had been suddenly disrupted and thrown out of balance by something strange and terrifying. Which was absurd, of course, because she was not yet \ twenty-three years old and she had never for a moment stopped being in love with Scott. So there was nething new or strange or terrifying about the fact that she was hurrying ( to him ... that once certain formali- ’ ties were finished with, she would undoubtedly spend the rest of her ■ life with him. Her lashes lay darkly against her ! cheeks and her hands clutched the ’ arms of her chair and outside the window bits of landscape, small houses dinging to hillsides and s glimpses of rivers, flashed by in a ; thin purple dusk. . It was April and she was going

back to Boston. She thought: “It seems as if for some time now I have either been returning to or leaving Boston ... everything I have done in between is unimportant, without meaning." Yet that was not quite true. Because this last year had had significance. This last year had had a certain quiet rhythm, a lovely lessening of nervous tension. Thinking about it, going back over it, week by week, she realized with a little shock, a sense of something approaching disloyalty to Scott that she had been more at peace with herself than she had ever been be- i fore in her life . . . not happier, of course, but more serene. There had ! been a feeling of well-being, a re- I lease from emotional turmoil, a re- ! assuring sense of being free, of be- , longing to herself. All of which of course, meant ' nothing, really. It was merely, idle supposed, a natural reaction to those months immedwtely following Scott’s marriage. And if she was , tremendously stirred now over his approaching freedom it was simply that she had forced herself for so long to hope for nothing, to expect nothing where he was concerned, I that it was impossible for her to re- | spend at once to this new stimulus. But given a little time everything would be all right She was sure of that. She had to be sure of it or else all her life up to now would be utterly pointless. Without meaning. Because she had lived it wanting but : one thing out of it. . . and wanting that terrifically. She opened her eyes and found j that the purple dusk had slid into 1 sudden darkness. The Pullman window was a square of black velvet blotting out the bits of billside and the small houses and glimpses of rivers. Presently the last year would be blotted out . . . and the years that had preceded that . . . presently she would be back again where she had been four spring- 1 times ago . . . four springtftnes ago when Scott had held her in his arms and said: “Don’t go, Whit. Don’t leave me. Stay here and marry me this week ...” But she had not stayed. She had gone. And the returning had been long and torturous but it was nearly finished. It would end, really, when this train reached Boston. He kissed her, released her, and she stood away from him a little and saw him clearly for the first time. And was shocked at what she saw. | Now she was close to him certain things were apparent that had not been discernible at a distance. As he had come toward her through the crowd, all she had seen was that his head was as golden and arrogant as ever and his eyes, searching for her, as excited and eager. Now she saw that in other ways he had altered and wondered whether he had been ill. He slid his arm through hers and ’ drew her along with the crowd. He said: “You are thinking that I look ; like the devil and I know I do but let’s skip it for the time being. I told Hester your train arrived an . hour later than it did ... I had to , see you alone first...” Whitney said: “Yes ... where are we going?” “To the apartment, I guess. Do i you mind? It's really the only place ■ where we can be relatively sure of I not being disturbed . . .” ’ Whitney said: “No, I don’t mind.” ; But she did. She wished that this I first hour they were to have together I i eould be spent somewhere else be- ' ■ sides in Olivia’s apartment. But it : seemed childish to say so ... ’ Scott unlocked the door, saying • over his shoulder: “I’ve let the 1 maids go . . . I’m giving up the • place at the end of the month.” The room leaped suddenly out of ■ darkness as be turned on pale! . shaded lamps. Whitney saw that it I , was long and narrow and exquisitely I I arranged. At the moment it had the I I unmistakable look of a place neg. , i' lected and little lived in.
