He would be happy to be proved wrong. 0 o Senator Vandenberg looms as the most popular dark horse in the choice of a Republican candidate for president.

In each cases, advise the use of penicillin loxenges which are allowed to dissolve slowly In the mouth, or they may suggest a similar preparation of one of the sulfonamide drugs.

If Stalin wanted understanding with the : United States, he would not have . written to Wallace. Senatoi Byrd of Virginia, who seems to be the watchdog of the federal treasury, predicts that it > will be necessary (or congress I to pass a new tax bill next spring, t boosting income tax payments. ! With additional billions voted for . national defense, Including the 70- ■ group air force, a deficit of nearI ly four billions will occur in the fiscal year, ending June 30, 1949. For the next two years, ’he deficit I will continue to climb, until It • reaches about ten Idlions. the Virr glnia senator estimates.

The people of Prague, formerly alert, well-informed, articulate, are said to have sunk into apathy. With no nonpartisan newspapers available, with radio broadcasts ; confined to Communist pronouncements. they bow heads under sueilcesslve blows to freedom. The lat--1 est blow Is the announcement that > <he Social-Democratic party will ' be merged with the Communist ' party, and that a single list of candidate* will be presented for the people's approval In the forthcoming elections.

He walked across to the two windows and pushed aside the white curtains. A range ot mountains loomed in the distance. Andrew saw with pleasure that the view would still be there when the trees were in leaf. Somehow, this decided him. "How much Is ft?~ he asked, still staring out at the misty range. Mrs. Potts did not answer him directly. “You an artist?” she demanded with obvious misgiving. Andrew swallowed his pride. "No, I'm a draftsman." "Oh." A draftsman was all right, apparently. "You got a Job here?" "Not yet I just landed tn town this afternoon." "Nine dollars a week," she said. Joshua Beadle’s voice echoed in hfs ears. "Don't pay more than a dollar a night—she may try to sting you." He pondered briefly. He wanted the room; he didn’t want to go hunting all over town for another one. and be couldn't afford the hotel. But if he argued with her, ne might lose it On the other hand, the voice ot caution whispered, if he gave in without a struggle she might think bo was easy. He said, "AU right, if that includes breakfast." He heard her gasp. Her mouth Closed With a snap, and she looked at him with new respect "Very well." she said at last “That wtl! be satisfactory.

material, although all she had tiaid was, "Seems a shame to send these to be mangled by the laundry!” But the walking he had done tn the past tew days had been nard on his socks. Now ne stared at the plate glass front ot the Roland Sport Shop. What a metropolitan looking place to find in a little town like Branfield! Feeling almost at homo ne went Inaiot to make his purchases. The ta*i young man who waited on him was pleasant-spoken, and displayed a variety of good hose. Andrew paid for three pairs and waited while they were being wrapped. "Visiting here?" the young man said. “Or staying at the Lodge?” "I'm over tn East Branflcid," Andrew replied, "at Mrs. Potts'." For some reason, this made the young man look at him with new respect "At Emma Potts'?" ne repeated. "I thought she nad sworn off taking roomers. You must have away with you." He laughed, and handed the wrapped package to hta customer. Andrew was inordinately pleased by this remark. After more than a week at Mrs. Potts' he realised that this was indeed a compliment Unwaveringly stern, and with a more than suspicious eye, his landlady had been observing him. The very rich often have a rigid and almost Spartan upbringing, and this had been the case with Andrew. He had been trained from early childhood to be quiet, to keep his clothes and belongings neatly, to leave a bedroom or a bathroom in order, and this—as time went on and he did not change —was what impressed Mra Potts. She did not say it In so many words, but she had remarked several times, in his hearing, that if there were fewer clothes-tossers and bathroom-wreckers of the male persuasion, there would be in her opinion correspondingly fewer divorces. This roundabout method of giving praise had amused Andrew immensely. He found his landlady a fascinating type. And as for Gloria—she was a source of continual wonder. She alternated so rapidly between childishness and pseudo-adulthood that Andrew grew dizzy trying to follow her. But it all had the charm of novelty for him. His room was adequate, although he found the long evenings spent in tt alone a trial—having no books beyond those he had picked up at the stationery store's lending library, and no company. But the bed waa comfortable, and the place waa spctles*. His one real complaint was that he nad to walk such a distance for his meals. There was a diner on the outskirts of town, but one experience there had convinced Andrew that a r two-miie walk would be preferable to that greasy fare. He had found a small restaurant— half soda-fountain, half tavern—where he could get a lunch of sorts And he had taken to having tea dinners at the Lodge. He went there now, although it was the middle of the day. He promised himself that be would take • light •upper at ths Cosy Nook tonight but right sow ha was hungry. Being hungry was an

He nad a different waitress today, a thin little woman with the quick movements and darting eyes ot a small bird. She thrust the menu at hitp with the comment. "The pot roast is good. You can have either noodles or sweets with it Td go for the noodles, myself." "Whatever you say," he acquiesced with a smila He had struck the right nets. She hovered over him during the meal, entertaining him with comments on bls fellow diners, and Branflelders In general. "You're new here, ain't you?" she asked. Then, without waiting for an answer, ‘1 been watching you the last few days, and believe me, after waiting on table aa many years as I have, you don't watch any more men eat than you have to! Eat!" she snorted. "Stoking up. that's what tt Is! You might just as weQ feed them from a trough! See that fellow over In the comer? He's the boss—Jed Cushing.

Now. he should eat twice as much as he does His wife was telling me the other day that she a getting grey hair trying to tempt bis appetite, but sbe can't make the grade. 1 guess he eats too much sawdust!” "Sawdust!" Andre" was startled. She giggled. "I was just Joking! That’s cause he has a sawmill here." Andrew took another look at him. Anything to do with building Interested him, and he had long since located the large sawmill down by the river, with the sign "Branfield Lumber Supply Co." Andrew bad located quite a tew things by this Ums, and one of the first had been the office of Henry Terbush, the architect. It had been upstairs in a walk-up office building (Andy doubted if there waa an elevator in the whole of Branfield and as a matter et fact, there wasn't) and ft had consisted of one small room. "Mr. Terbush?” Andrew had Inquired of the grey-balred, bespec tacled man who aat at an oldfashioned roll-top desk. Terbush stood up. "Yes? What can I do for you?" Andrew had hesitated, realizing in advance that his quest waa hopeless. “I heard you were the architect in town," he said, “and 1 wondered if you needed a draftsman.* For a moment, the older man had gaped at him. It must have been the first time such a thing had been suggested to him. and be was bowled over by It "A drafts man!" he had echoed. Then he shook his head.
