Abrogation of the contract for the turbine required a settlement of $15,4X10 and in all likelihood there is a liability on other contracts made by the city. Until these contracts are formally settled, it would seem wise to withhold any official action for future building plans, involving a smaller plant built around diesel engines. Abrogating the contracts may be cost-

Symptoms of Angina Pectoris Easy to Diagnose

By Herman N. Bundesen, M. D. THERE is this to be said for angina pectoris — it creates such unmistakable symptoms that it can seldom be ignored by the patient or confused by the doctor with any other form of heart disease. Angina pectoris is a disorder of (he heart due, in most cases, to hardening of the main coronary arteries which carry blood to the heart muscle. Pain, Under the brehst bone or over the heart, Is its chief symptom. Though of short duration, it is usually severe while it lasts, often passing upward into the left shoulder and down the arm. Almost invariably it comes on during or immediately after exercise, emotional upsets or chilling. This is the classic picture, hut sometimes the pain may be slight and in a little different location. Now and then, for instance, it may be felt chiefly in the upper part of the abdomen. Not only may the pain pass into the shoulder and atm but upward into the neck to the left side of the face. In severe cases, the pain may pass upward into both arms. This passage of the pain to various parts of the body is known es. radiation. If the area of radidlM should change, it may indicate that further changes in the heart may have occurred, such as further narrowing of the opening through the coronary arteries. In addition to the pain, there may. be other symptoms. such gs sweat-j mg viltkSdts, fats'ing ettflapu.

ly and as a result city finances would be Impaired, thus terminating the plans for future development of the utility. —o —o — Walter Clem, new owner of Shroyer’s lake and park northeast of the city, will develop the recreation spot and intends to open a eating place in conneci tlon with the picnic grounds. It will be known as "Clem's Lake" and during the summer months will no doubt be a lively spot for those who seek recreation and respite from the heat at day’s end. —o —o Man has developed amazing power, but nature leaves him far behind. The Pacific Northwest earthquake was as destructive as 250 atomic bombs. This estimate is based on President Truman’s statement that the bomb dropped on Hiroshima was equal to 20,000,000 tons of TNT. The Seattle earthquake was disastrous, but that area will weather it. If it equalled the destructiveness of 250 atomic bombs, obviously far more than that number would be needed to make any marked impression on an enemy nation. —o —o — Aid To Schools The proposal for federal aid to the public schools has passed its first hurdle. A bill authorizing aid of $3W,000,000 a year has been passed by the Senate. Under this bill the allotment to each state would be in direct proportion to the number of schoolage children and in reverse proportion to the amount of federal income tax payments. This plan would scale the payments not exactly according to the wealth of the separate states but according to their immediate financial situation. Since the money would be used for operating costs of the school systems this seems a sensible way to allocate it. Every precaution apparently was taken by the writers of the bill to avoid making it an instrument by which the federal government would interfere with a state's administration of its school system. The bill specifies only the general purposes tor which the money would be used —to help pay salaries and other operating expenses. It leaves entirely te the states the decisions on how the money would be allocated among the separate schools. Thus the federal money presumably would be distributed in each state on the same basis that state aid to local districts now is paid. The intent of the Senate was to prevent any possible involvement of the broad and touchy issue of states' rights, and to prevent federal dabbling in the control of education.

. dizziness, and shortness of breath, r However, all of these symptoms are i not present in every case, and It is i on the pain and its characteristics t that the diagnosis of angina pec- ,• toris is made. When it is suspected that a pert son has this disorder, he should, of ) ■ course, be carefully studied by his ■-1 physician, and an etectrocardioe, gram made. This Is an electric tracing of the heart heat, and is r helpful in the diagnosis. >- The physician will decide in each t case just what treatment Is neces- ■ sary. In every case, of course, chillt' Ing. overstrain, and emotional up t sets, which tend to bring on the r attacks, must be avoided.

SYNOPSIS t Porter Parish has become so disagreeable y to his wife, Beatrice, and their child, Marianne, that divorce seems inevitable. Bee £ realizes that her husband is not happy t under the cruel domination of his employer, Mr. Ramey, a rich grasping Industrialist. 1 She resolves patiently that their child shall £ not be the victim of a broken home like j poor frustrated Jane, teen ape daughter of . Bee’s best friend, Libby. One afternoon 1 Bee meets Libby’s latest swain, David Jordan, whom she finds "dangerously" attractive. 1 __ ( CHAPTER SEVEN 1 IT WAS sometime before Bea- ' trice met Mr. and Mrs. Ramey, ! though from various sources she ' had learned that though they were ' fabulously rich, they were socially J impossible. Any number of people ! told her that Rufus Ramey was a tyrant, a man insensitive to the feelings of others, merciless and * uninterested in anything save the ' making of money. He had, they ‘ admitted grudgingly, the Midas • touch. Beatrice was told that Mrs. 1 Ramey had come from one of the ® first families of the state, a fact 1 she never let anyone, particularly * the man she married, forget since 1 Mr. Ramey had begun as a labor- 1 er In her father’s business, the 1 same business that Rufus Ramey ’ had swollen to an industrial em- 1 pire. , 1 Thus It had been with mixed ] feelings that Beatrice had gone , to dinner the first time she and Porter were invited to the massive , stone house of the Rameya And , there in an atmosphere of Victorian elegance she had found to her 1 consternation and bewilderment that everything she had heard ‘ about them was true. Pity, however, had at once tempered her feelings for the irascible, ugly man, with white hair like bristles, and with shoulders so broad and neck so thick he seemed almost deformed. Mr. Ramey's attitude that night was that this was something he supposed had to be done since there had to be women in the world, but that he couldn’t wait for tomorrow's work- ■ ing day to begin. No one had told Beatrice that Mrs. Ramey was a handsome, imperial looking woman with restless dark eyes and softly waved white hair who walked with a cane that she thudded noisily against the floor when she was angry. Mrs. Ramey had dominated the conversation not only with searching questions but also with so seeking, so inquisitive a stare that Beatrice had felt weak from a sense of her own unworthiness, i “You are a self-contained little thing, and your husband is obviously gently bom," Mrs. Ramey had said that night She smiled I rather often but there was no mirth in any Os her smiles. It was more a muscular movement than i smile. Beatrice had had to hear about ner illustrious forebears at whose portraits on the wan Mrs. Ramey had pointed with her cane. She learned, too, that Mr*. Ramey regarded poverty as the incurable disease of the stupid. Mrs. Ramey had said also, "I have a perfect house. I am a perfectionist. My husband and I don’t entertain very often. Entertaining upsets the routine of my housekeeping." There had not been a flower or a green thing growing in that great mausoleum of a bouse. Beatrice had been prouder of Porter than ever that night, and when Mrs. Ramey had not been monopolizing her, she had seen that Porter was everything that Rufus Ramey would want his son to be if he’d had a son. But the Kasey’s were cWe» Beatrice

had understood then why she was i: here, and why Porter’s salary was s such that she was wearing a dress r bought at a shop into which until f only recently she had longingly r glimpsed. From then on the v Rameys were a part of her ex- h istence. t c In the beginning she had ac- a quiesced gladly to Mrs. Ramey's t demands upon her time partly 1 from compassion for the lonely r childless old woman and partly I from thankfulness. She had even a thought that Mrs. Ramey was I genuinely fond of her, though it t wasn’t long before she came to know that Mrs. Ramey was as 1 frugal as her husband and that ' Mrs. Ramey’s Idea of a gift was t a fifty cent handkerchief, or at <! the most a pair of stockings of a I color that Beatrice could not bring i herself to wear. When she and i Porter had bought their first car c she had not objected to taking t Mrs. Ramey wherever she wanted ' to go. And Beatrice had been I agreeable when, when she was I pregnant, Mrs. Ramey had tele- t phoned every day to tell her of • children being born with birth- ' marks appropriate to their mother’s unfulfilled desires. Mrs. Ramey had heard of more children 1 who had been born idiots. And < when Marianne had come, rosy 1 and perfect, Mrs. Ramey had said, I “This is my baby.” When Porter ] had gone into the Navy, Mrs. Ra- i mey had read Beatrice the casual- i ty lists over the telephone every I morning, and her good-bye to him i when he left for California had I sounded like an obituary. If Por- ■ ter had had any idea of being ; killed, Mrs. Ramey had certainly done her best to intensify it Thus Beatrice had accepted the Rameys as a part of her material plenty, and had been prepared to continue to do so until of late when she had begun to see Mrs. Ramey in a new and disturbing light Though Mrs. Ramey said she didn't go anywhere, it seemed to ’Beatrice that Mrs. Ramey knew everywhere that she, Beatrice, went “You were at the Lambert's tea last Saturday. Oh, I know!” or, “You bought a new hat at Antoinette's last week, didn’t you, Beatrice?" It was not 1 what she said but rather what her tone Implied—that Beatrice had all the fun while she, Mrs. Ramey, i had none and that if it were not ! for her, Beatrice would still be i living on thirty dollars a week. ■ Nothing pleased Mrs. Ramey more ' than to hear that someone had ’ suffered a severe financial loss ' and Beatrice had begun to sus--1 pect not only a threat, but also > a curious and frightening sugar--1 coated sadism in the woman, i Meanwhile Mrs. Ramey’s demands r upon her had so grown that BeaI trice now hesitated before com- • mitting herself to daytime social • engagements. “I thought you'd ' never come.” Mrs. Ramey would i complain if Beatrice were only a ’ few minutes late. “If Pm too much i trouble, do, please, tell me that I f am. I’ve never been as popular ' as you are. my dear.” The intent ■ to hurt and to deprecate was all too clear. | Beatrice had known, she had t khown from the first, that though Mr. Ramey had given Porter his f opportunity, Porter had earned ) his salary. While the title of the i "fair-haired boy” might be applied i to Porter by those jealous of him I at the vast and sprawling Ramey i plant, Beatrice knew that Porter : could not have worked under a i more exacting, more ruthless, more

impersonal taskmaster. She had seen Porter exhausted. She had more than once heard him called from sleep several times in one night when something had gone wrong at the plant. Site had seen him return from a long and arduous business trip and, sleepless after hours in the air, go directly to the plant and work all day. There were few nights that he did not bring work home with him. He was on call twenty-four hours a day. Nor was he free of tele* phone calls and reports mailed to him while on his annual vacation. And now Marianne’s acute dislike of Mrs. Ramey was aggravating an already strained relationship. For Marianne frankly did not want to go to see Mrs. Ramey. She felt so strongly about it that tears welled up in her eyes if the subject were mentioned. "I don’t like her," Marianne had tried vehemently. "I don’t like what she gives me to eat. You know what she does, Mother? She gives me a magazine and tells me to look at the pictures. It’s dumb ... I won't go there anymore. I won't!"

• • • * Not for a long time had Beatrice become conscious of the act of undressing at night, the sensation of being bereft of jewelry and her body bare under the satin gown. If anyone were to see her now, she thought, looking at herself in the vanity mirror, at the line of her bare shoulder and at her cascading hair, they would have thought her vain. Would they ever suspect that her appraisal of herself was not prompted by vanity, but rather by a sense of futility? Why . . . why tne thick untrammeled hair and the soft bare shoulders when Porter would come up and go silently to his restless sleep? What was she good for except to see that Marianne was healthy and happy, and that the house was in beautiful order? The hair and the shoulders and the lips and the body, the woman apart from the mother and the housekeeper, seemed such a waste. She was alive. She was not all mother and homemaker. She was a woman, too, and appreciative of her own gifts of beauty. She wanted to be loved, Beatrice thought; not for Marianne, not for the house, but for herself. Even when it wasn't like this, even when Porter kissed her, it was not as it once had been. There was no tenderness. She was in her bed and her eyes were open when Porter came in the room. "Did you see that Marianne was covered?" he asked. "It’s getting much colder.” “I put the comfort over her." You are looking at me, Porter, but you are not really seeing me beI cause you are not thinking of me. I “Porter, I'm sorry I blew up about I Mrs. Ramey." i “She’s getting hard to take, isn’t i she?” I She smiled. “Or Tm just a case • of arrested development I'm just : beginning to see through her." I How much should she tell him? She used to tell him everything. I He was standing before the miri ror., He didn't speak at once and i when he did his voice was angrily I cold. “You have to take it... or ! else. I’m tired.

Some parents will also share in the sympathy, while others whose character! and reputation for honesty and truth are shady sympathize only with their children. A child cannot help what it inherits. The sins of parents, the Good Book tells us, are visited unto the third and fourth generations. It has been said that children are looking glasses for the parents. If a parent is dishonest, long-fing-ered, takes advantage of aged men and women and crippled minds and acquires ill gotten gains in any way, should he be shocked if his children follow in his footsteps! He need not be surprised if his children cause him to lose all and more of his ill gotten gains and give him many a headache. The prominent lawyer tne Berne Witness speaks ot, whose son along with three other delinquents, from al! reports made it impossible for the prosecutor to do otherwise. We should not be too hasty in passing judgment on him. First get the truth. We should all be grateful to Almighty God for enabling us to have men like our sheriff, probation officer and judge. Their efforts show them to be men who fight for justice. i In my judgment, it is not more amusement places the city needs, it is more and better training in the home and school. A school sup-

I'll just put my bag in the guest room I always use. I'm a little early but, well, you see, Mother wanted to bring me and it gets dark so early now and everything." Libby's daughter spoke quietly. She spoke almost as if she apologized for herself, as if indeed she apologized for being alive. Though she dressed as did all of her contemporaries—the pleated plaid skirt, the hooded jacket, the inevitable sweater under the jacket—and though in the small face with the chestnut-colored eyes there was promise of startling beauty, Jane was unhappily, Beatrice feared, quite different from the girls she knew at school. It was not only that Libby refused to permit her to have simple movie dates with boys of her own age, but also as if Jane were overshadowed by her more vivid and vivacious mother. And Jane, liking books and genuinely interested in her piano studies, had uncomplainingly acquiesced to Libby’s insistence that she remain a child. Beatrice recalled how amused Libby had been when Jane had asked if she could be a “sitter" because so many of the girls she knew did it of necessity for spending money. Beatrice had been pleased that Jane didn't want to be classified as being too rich— Libby’s parents had left her a sizable fortune—to do the things that other girls did. Yet of late Beatrice had seen Jane’s deep dark eyes turn wistfully to the house next door to which young Paul Mather came home for weekends from boarding school She had «een Jane and Paul meet casually in the garden, and she had known the girl's suffering, the suffering of one who knows she isn't pretty or popular or appealing to boys and tl at the boy, eager to hurry off, ia only being polite. Didn’t Libby see it, too? Didn’t she see that Jane was repressed and unhappy?

raise one child and raise him right was a bigger task than to govern a state. She proved equal to the occasion. Her children’s minds were stored each day with knowledge and good thoughts. There was no room left for bad ones. They did not have to have a great amount of amusement. The mother had to work to support them. The children were taught to dd the work around the home. They knew the golden rule and the Lord’s prayer. There surely is something wrong some where. There never was so much amusement and organizations for the youth as there is today, and the youth never had so much money to spend. Yet crime is on the increase. Who is to blame? Wherein lies the remedy? One thing might help if all could be forced to live within their means instead of trying to be big shots at the expense of others. Live the song we hear these days, ’ It’s What You Do With What You Have That Pays Off in the End.” Many a headache would be avoided.

large enough for the smallest size made. They were still in her closet waiting for her feet to grow into them. When Jane came back, she said, "I'm awfully glad you asked me, Bee. 1 was just dying tor you to ask me. This is such a beautiful house. I wish ... well, I wish we lived in a house, and not in an apartment.” "1 wouldn’t go to Mrs. Ramey’s,’’ Marianne said triumphantly. “I’m not going there anymore. You'll always come and stay with me when Mother and Daddy go out, won’t you, Jane?" Her eyes teased Beatrice. “Do you hear that, Mother? Jane is always coming." Jane's little laugh was too controlled, too subdued, Beatrice thought Jane said, “Maybe you’d like to take a walk, Marianne." "A walk? Oh, sure, I'd love It I'll go get my things right now." When Marianne rushed out Jane said, “She gets such a bang out of everything, doesn’t she?” "She loves you very much, Jane.” “Really?" She seemed puzzled and embarrassed as she gave a nervous little toss of her head that stirred the almost shoulder length dark hair to motion. "1... 1 guess 1 love her a lot too." Beatrice arose. “If you see Paul while vou’re out walking, why not ask him in? There are some new records down in the recreation room that he might like to hear." Jane stood still, her bands locked behind her back. "He ... he wouldn’t come, Bee. I asked him once before." The tears were starting in her eyes when she said, “1 guess it isn't very respectful of me, but 1.. . well, 1 can’t feel that you’re old, Bee. I don’t feel that way about Mother’s other friends. Only about you. 1 don’t know why I said it It’s silly, isn’t ft?" "No, dear, 1 liked it Tm enormously pleased.” "You and Porter have everything . . . just everything. And this is what I want, to be married, to have a home and children. But, of course, if It doesn't work, 1 suppose you .. you Just get a divorce." You Just get a divorce! Just like that Beatrice thought! As if marriage is not intertwined with family and traditions and citizenship and religion. Have we of our generation shown marriage to be so lightly entered into without regard to family, children, state and church, that oaar children accept divorce as a matter of course? Take off a hat you don’t Hke. Get rid of a husband. Whose fault is it that a girl of Jane's age says, “You just get a divorce”? I could tell you about my mother, Beatrice thought I could tell you why my own marriage h*s been sacrosanct, why I have prayed for ft to endure, and why with aB the love and intelligence I possess I have tried to preserve it Marianne, breathless, ran in.
