There isn't anything ae typical American ae a Easter parade o o The Elks entertained the children with the Easter egg bunt and sent the tiny tots home with happy hearts The event Is sppreciated by the community The new Congress made a lot of ado about the number of federal employes The record shows that 15.000 wore fired during February and that Uncle Sam still has 2,286,000 on the payroll. o — o The removal of several old buildings In the residential districts would enhance the appearance of the respective neighborhoods. In their place, a modern home could be constructed. ■ — ■ v" o— Thia Is about the only country in the world where hams were in such abundance on the market that it required decision in making up your mind if you wanted chicken roast beef or pork chops for the Easter dinner. The sale of property for delinquent taxes in this county will almost be nil. Only three properties are listed in the notice and these will probably be withdrawn before the sale next Monday. The taxes due total less than 13.50. which is probably the best showing in the state. —n oLets proceed with the Cleau-up and Paint-Up plans and get things in high gear for the city-wide drive. We should have a systematic plan, supported by civic and service organizations and do an extraordinary job. Clean up everywhere. in the alleys, yards and around the corner. o o The greatest compliment to the American people is the religious fervor and devotion shown by them during Holy Week and their faith in Christ's redemption of mankind No country will go far wrong, as long as it hewes to first things first. Communism cannot thrive in a Christian country. We are happy that we are living in a community that observes Good Friday aud celebrates Easter. o o The Turks conquered Greece in the 15th century, and for three cen-

Treatment Aided by Penicillin i

By Marman N. Bundessn. M. O. IT may be that we will noon bare to chalk up another victory for penicillin, thin time over the stubborn and troublesome ulcerative colitis Bo far, the eaact cause jf ibis disorder of the large bowel is not known It is thought likely that germ infection is responsible but. if it is, the germ which causes it has not been identified The symptoms of thia condition, however, are unfortunately all too familiar to its thousands of victims Ulcers are formed in the large bowel with resulting diarrhea. loss of weight and strength, anemia or lessening of the coloring matter in the blood, and the presence of blood In the bowel movements Penicillin Used pre Bernard H Korostoff and Harry E King of the Medical Corps ut tbe Army of the U. S used penicillin to treat patients with this condition. The penicillin was given by injection Into a muscle every three hours over a period of five days. The patients ail were considered to be moderate tn severe casee.Oae of tbe patients had been treated by diet and other methods for two weeks without improvement A second patient bad been given iron preparations and sulfadiaaiae in addition to dietary treatment without any notable

turlea and a half ware a blight to the country. Greedy tax gathers carried off almost everything valuable. and the best youths were enslaved or made soldiers. Finally in 1321 the Greeks revolted and with European help gained independence. Turkish tyranny brought on a war with Greece in 1397. in which the Greeks were no match for their old masters. Still another war took place in 1912. in which Greece aud her neighbors finally overcame the Turks Yet despite sll these wars, sided by an exchange of population in the 1920'5, the peoples became friends. Old grievances were removed or forgotten, and the two countries are on good terms today. o___ 0 ___ o _— Americans need to remember that no group can change the American form of government if Americans are unwilling to have it changed. The most important thing they can do Is to make plain to people tempted by what is told them by Commies aud fellowtravelers that the Russians have none of our great freedoms, none j of our ease of living. Moat Russians are buddled six or eight to a room. Millions of the small shacks they call homes have no floors but the hare earth, no running water, none of the comforts Americans have made tor them I selves by that natural process of working, saving and investing which has come to be called capitalism Our way of life is so much better than theirs that there is no comparison. If all Americans understand that thoroughly, there is nothing to fear. --o o County Wide Pion The township trustee* in this county wilt discuss and vote on the county-wide school plan at a public meeting to be held Saturday in the circuit court room. Discussing the proposal. Maurice Early, in his column. "The Day in Indiana," remarks: This week the township trustees of most of the counties will hold public hearings to consider the new law which permits the establishment of county • wide school systems to replace township control. School men report that there is less hostility In the plan among trustees than was expected. In some of the progressive counties, the trustees are considering seriously the new plans as a means of lowering school and transportation eosts an increasing school efficiency. But they are reluctant to "break the ice." They want some other county to try out the system so they can see bow it works. So far. no county has voted for the county wide system. It requires the vote of two-thirds of the trustees to 1 bring about the change.

- benefit. The other patients had been treated in similar ways and some had been suffering on and off for a number of years. Fallowing the Treatment It was noted that during or immediately following th<* treatment with the penicillin the ulcers in the large bowel disappeared Three of the patients obtained complete relief from all symptoms with the penicillin treatment, while the otiier two were considerably improved Drs. Korostoff and King have not observed any other treatment of ulcerative colitis which seemed to benefit the patients so rapidly Just how the jtenicillin works is not known, ft is possible that it gets into the wall of the bowel and there stops the growth of the germs or eliminates them completely. The most effective dose of penicillin to be used in the treatment of ulcerative colitis is not definitely determined. It is possible that the use of larger amounts than those given to these patients and employed over a longer period of time might produce even better results than those reported. This does not mean that all patients will necessarily benefit with the penicillin, but it adds a new weapon for the treatment of ulcerative colitis which thus tar hue bee® a most difficult disorder to overcome in many instances.

CHAPTER FORTY-TWO n WAS dark when Janet and her father reached Oiff's camp, ' where the doctor removed Casey's rough dressing and replaced it with clean bandages. "You’ll do," ne told Cliff. “You were lucky that knife didn’t nick your kidney.” From the camp medicine cheat be took out a hottie. -One of these tablet* will guarantee you a good night's sleep, and I’ll see you tn the morning." “Can 1 get up tomorrow?" Cliff asked. “Don’t be a dam’ fort. That knife wound could be serious. You are better off tn bed." “There’a a lot to do," Cliff objected. "Then let someone else do it—you’re not the only man in camp." But Just before Cliff fell asleep, he called for Janet. “You know about the barges?" he whispered. Eyes soft v.-ith compassion, she nodded. “Casey told me." “You really are in love with a l pauper now." She laid a cort hand on his forehead. “Don’t worry, darling." He tried to smile. “That’s so , easy to say and so bard to—" He was asleep. And during those next three days he spoke little of his disaster, but something had gone out erf him—there was a muted quality about him that wrung Janet's heart, and It was painfully clear to her understanding eyes how I deep within him brooded the specter of his defeat. Ho gained strength rapidly, but the buoyancy that had been so much a part of him did not return, and Janet knew why. Yet only once, as Casey sat by his bedside, Cliff gave voice to regret "We should have built that road around the rapids," bo said, "and hauled the rubber down in trucks." Casey grunted. “Forget It Boas. We couldn't afford to build a road or buy enough trucka And ft ain’t ! like we don’t know what it is to go broke** "I went over the ledger this morning." Cliff replied. ’"There's just enough money to pay off the boys and get them back to the States." He winced. "Maybe some day we’ll all get together again on another job—one that we’ll really put across." “Sure, sure," Casey answered, but his eyes would not meet Cliff's, i On the evening of the second day Wada Carroll dropped in. The little hunter seemed saddened. “LUU asked to bo remembered," he said after a time, “Why didn't you bring her along?" Wade squirmed in his ehair. “Well, Mr. Bogard, that's just it She ain't with mo any more She and Via bad a big fight, then they

Education isn't everything." “1 guess not Now take Madison —education never done him much good." Cliff turned In his cot “What about Madison?" “They sent him to the hospital on the coast I hear he won’t never walk much again. And one thing's sure—he won’t come back. Vicente says if ho ever sees him, he'll break him tn two, And Vin’s the boy could do it" That night Dr. Norman let Cliff walk about the shack. But only for a few moments, despite Cliff's insistence that he was feeling perfectly fit “You’re the kind of patient no doctor should be cursed with,” Norman stormtd. “Besides, you better get all the rest you can. Claribel’s coming down to see you tomorrow." “Then that settles It" Cliff answered. “Tomorrow I'm getting up. Claribel’s tough enough when you're on your own two feet—l'm not going to let her catch me flat on my back.” He frowned down at the ledger book he had thrown tn the corner. “I suppose she’s worried about her payments. If the old girt can And any loose money after 1 pay off the men, she’s welcome to it—and I’ll help her hunt." The "old girt" came riding up to the shack just after Janet had brought Clift his breakfast, and Cliff walked to the doorway to greet her. She peered down at him for a full minute, then grinned. “Well, 1 can’t say you look much the worse for wear." "Maybe you don’t see very well without your sun-glasses." She laughed. “You know what happened to those sun-glasses? Bob Norman broke ’em. He said—" She grasped the horn of her saddle in alarm, for her horse had wheeled and stood facing downstream. “What’s wrong with this fool animal?" she burst out. But tn the next second they ail saw—it was the bow of a steamer coming around the bend. Cliff could only stare. Mast and derricks gleaming m the morning sun. it rounded the turn, and now the valley shook with the piercing blast of its siren. His uncomprehending gaze turned to Janet. -1 asked Casey to radio that the boat wasn't needed." he managed to say. ”1 told him not to.

way across the clearing Cliff halted, and in silent amazement gazed down at the dock. The whole river bank was heaped with plies of rubber, and crowds of men were stacking higher and higher still more piles of the great glistening brown balls. The dock, the camp, the trail to the rapids, swarmed with men carrying rubber on their shoulders or leading heavily laden mules. As one walking In a dream, Clift reached the low rise above the river. There, far as the eye could reach, the path that skirted the rapids was teeming with men, pack-horses and mules, an army of workers, steadily adding to the tons of rubber already piled along the bank. More like anta than human figures they seemed, as they trudged toward the dock, but among them Cliff recognized some of his own men; others, from their garb, were Blacklanders, but most of them were people he had never seen before. For a second Cliff’s world swam. Beneath his unbelieving eyes the ; miracle had happened—his rubber was coming down to meet the cargo ship. Claribel climbed gingerly from her horse. "Shows what us women can do when we get an idea." she announced belligerently. “Those men have been working night and day ever since you were hurt" “But who are they?" “Bob Norman and Vicente brought in every Blackland family for twenty miles around, and I sent all the men from New Dixie. The whole valley is working for you, young man, and by noon the last bolacha of your blasted rubber will be at the dock." He made as if to speak, but she interrupted. "And don’t thank me —thank Janet She bulldozed Bob and me into turning the country upside down just so you could be happy, it was her Idea." Janet’s idea! With shining eyes he looked at her. “What shell I say?" he half whispered. “What can I say?” She tried to frown, but her voice was tremulous with happiness. “You might take back what you once said to me." Puzzled, he looked at her. then suddenly remembering. “You man that thia was no place for women?" "I mean something even worse." Janet turned to Claribel. “The very first day I met this person,, he told me women were good for' just one thing—having babies." Claribel gave her deep, throaty chuckle. “Well, if you can manage ! babies like you do hl* be better get going and—" But the rest was an unrecognisable mumble. for Janet’s hand had sealed the old lady's lipa. > ' THE ENT
