Twelve of the men who were parachuted in the Montana timberlands to fight the forest fires were burned to death. A freak change in wind fanned the flames which encircled the men and burned them to death. The fire swept over some I.2<ti acres in a primitive area, causing great destruction in addition to taking the lives of the gallant men who sought to combat the conflagration. o— —o A news picture shows a group distinguished Hoosiers who from 1924 to 1910 served as state Commanders of the Indiana lagion. They are. Former Governor Ralph Gates, Clarence Jackson, Former Congressman Forrest Harness, Frank McHale and Lt. Governor John A. Watkins. It se< ms that the Legion commandership has been a vital ring for those who det« rmined to climb the political ladder. Another Hoosier who was elected Commander before- he became the principle actor on the Indiana stage was Former Governor Paul V. McNutt. o o For those who like fairs and want to see the sights, along with exhibits of the best cattle and livestock grown in the world, the Indiana State Fair, during the first week in September provides them with that opportunity.

Too Tired? Better See Doctor

By Herman N. Bundeten, M.D. FATIGI'E In the normal result of effort. A hard day's work o r lull day's play will each bring fatigue i» also frequent symptoms atlgue in also a frequent symptom of disease, particularly when it Id present most of the time and without any actual expenditure of energy to account for it. Strenons mental work, as well as emotional strain, will use up energy and produce, a feeling of tiredness. In some people, the cause of undue fatigue seems to lie In a luck of balance between the storage of energy and its expenditure. In these cases the body's ability to restore itself after mental or physical exertion is not up to par. Fatigue develops in long-contin-uod infections and. ia such cases, it may be due to the taking up of poison- or toxins resulting from the infections. tin the other hand, it may come from anemia or lessening of the color of the blood produced hy the infection Fatigue occurs in patients with diabetes and in these case* it may ba due to the patient's inability to use sugar which Is circulating in the blood On the other hand, a coadhlon known as hyperinsulin■t m. in which the pancreas secrete' too much insulin, thus reducing the blood sugar to a low level, also may be a cause tor fatigue Disturbances of the blood and serare anemia interfere with the ability of the blood to carry oxygen U> Use tissue*. The same tidt 4 may happen in cases of heart i failure A feeling of extreme fa tigue may be presen- in these con Cancer may cause some damage t hlood cfng tissues in the bone marrow with anemia and resuittag awm* fatigue

require the deft hand of capable ■Liurses One can appreciate the Bneed for additional nurses ocftacassioiied by the number of paadmitted to the Fort tlßwayne. Muncie and Indianapolis jW hospitals, during the past three rW weeks. The Red Cross recruitr a ment is for the length of the curt •- L i » » rent emergency, the services of I- nurses being in hospitals that 1 minister to polio victims. I- o o i' t A few cities and a number of hamlets were buried in earthquakes in the little country of Ec- ’ uador, on the north rim of South B America. The death toll may reach 4.000 and property damage * will total millions, the President ‘ of the tiny Republic broadcast to ‘ the world. The quake started 1 with slides of the Andes inoun ‘ tains and before humans could 1 flee, they were hurled alive. Several industrial cities were ruined and channels of rivers were ’ changed with the impact of earth in river beds. With a population of less than 3.50(1.000, the loss of life is great. The surprising thing is that the Inhabitants have the courage to announce that they will rt build and attempt to restore the normal way of living in the quake infested area of the world. But, home is home, no matter the hazards. o o Administering Aid: The appropriation for continuance of the Economic Recovery Program in Europe has been considerably stowed in its progress through Congress by proposals to put additional limits on the discretion of the administrative organization in use of the aid funds. Chief among these were proposals for earmarking parts of the appropriation for purchase of surplus American farm crops and for aid to Spain, not now included in the program. It is true that matters such as the two named above bear a relation to the broad problem of economic recovc ry in Europe. But to attach them to the Recovery Program, by the device of earmarking funds, might dangerously divert the attention and energies of the Economic Cooperation Administration. The agency would be forced to devote time to the domestic problem of farm markets and to the Spanish political question. But the success of the Recovery Program still hangs in delicate balance, and the administrators need to devote al! of their time and energy to the intrinsic problems of that program. Congress teas great concern for the cost of the European project,

j The fatigue of tuberculosis Is I probably due to the taking up of toxins or poisons formed hy the : infection. Addison's Disease There Is a disorder known as Addison's disease, due to lack of a ' secretion from the glands known as the adrenal glands, which are I located just above the kidney. Fatigue Is an outstanding symptom 1 of thia disorder. It la thought that the fatigue of infections may be due In part to a disturbance of the adrenal glands. Fatigue la present in toxic goiter in which there is an excessive ! secretion from the thyroid gland in the neck. This type of fatigue is probably brought on by the speeding up of the chemical -activities of the body. Fatigue Is also present in hardening of the arteries, poisoning with various metals, in cbronl'kidney disease, and in acute and chronic liver infections. Many patients who experience undue fatigue iwlieve that it Is a | simple matter to determine just why such a symptom should lie present. But with such a variety of causes, it is easy to see that only a thorough and complete study ran determine just which one may be active In a particular case QUESTIONS ANO ANSWERS R. E. D.: What causes excessive swelling below the eyes? Answer: Puffiness under the eyelids frequently comes from lack of rest and sleep It may be because there is sone disturbance in the water balaa<e in the body. Some individuals have tissue« which hold more water than others. and it is this collectioa of fluid in the body which causes puffiness under the eyes There is po nerd to worrv about this matter tor the condition can ! cauM no trouble

and its relation to other costs of government. Nevertheless it seems wise, after it has been determined how much money can be allotted to European aid, to

CHAPTER FORTY THE CLOCK in the North Station said 0:18, three minutes 100 late for the fast train home. I'll have to kill fifteen minutes some way, Kit told herself. It was useless to try for the early train unless she left the Symphony before the end of the program. So she usually spent Friday nights in town with Aunt Fanny and Uncle Ben. But, today, at noon, the weather had begun to soften and clear and she could not tx-ar to spend the first real weekend of spring away from Colcord. Marvell was not expecting her tonight, she thought, but no matter, she'd call him from the station. She stood in the entrance of the waiting room and looked down the long wooden bench facing the door for a seat. Halfway down she caught sight of a sharp white profile under a bright green hat Kit walked over to her. "Hello,” she said, touching Audrey on the shoulder. Audrey looked up from her magazine. Her mouth returned the greeting but her eyes remained vague and dreamy. "This your day for the Symphony isn't it? Well, I'm worn out shopping. If you're getting the 5:33, let's wait under the clock. " She picked up her assorted bundles. Kit wondered why Audrey chose this spot in the path of cross drafts between two taxi exits. Then she guessed the reason. There was a men's haberdashery shop just behind them. Its one small, dusty window always filled with the same stringy, violent patterned ties and imitation leather gift sets. Audrey Instinctively picked the place where she thought men might linger. She, too, was part nf the display. "I've had a wild time," Audrey • began in her penetrating, voice. I “For the Legion dance. Are you .. and Peter going?" "He's not a member." “He can buy a ticket, can’t he? He’s a swcD dancer. You ought to ga Well, what I went all over 1 town for is a jade feather fan. • Holy Smoke, the prices! I had s weal luck, though. I was in the • Five and Ten and gave the girl a i dollar bill and she thought it was i two." “Oh?" Kit’s tone was puxzled. "I'm tn the dollar. It went toward the fan," said Audrey triumphantly. •The girl will have to pay for it ! out of her own mcney. They check I the cash registers every day." > "She should have been more , sharp, then." Audrey moved away from Kit to let a tired looking man enter the store Kit shivered: the cold, concrete floor inlaid with the dark scrawl ! of the day's muudy shoes, ttypasty iaced man who had just I brushed her elbow, Audrey's determined pride in her cheap trans- . action, all depressed her. Audrey stepped forward to peer up at the clock and Kit looked at her a little contemptuously—her gray winter coat trimmed with wooly imitation f fur, her brown rubber boots with ' the worn rabbit fnnge at the Tops, i her patent leather bag. her green hat that was too big and elaborate. Why. Audrey was poor, she thought with sudden compassion. There was no substance to anything ahe owned except the money she kept greedily tucked away in • a hidden flap of the bag. i "We might as well get on the ■ train." said Audrey shifting her I parcels for a tighter grip. "Let me help you. aear." said ( Kit gently as if Audrey had been her young daughter. Out on the station platform where the train was standing the ' smell of spring was stronger than the engine smoke and the cindery l dust. Kit drew a deep breath of i the pungent air before cUmbtng into the coach They settled them-

I "I didn't know you had any relatives by that name," said Kit. “I ! thought they were all Caddigans i or Rileys- Oh, she's pretty!" i Audrey sniffed. "If you like that i dark, heavy type.” "She's like I’uldl and Poldi's—beautiful." i "She's like Poldi, all right” ' Audrey gave a mean, little snicker. Free and easy. You ought to ’ know." "Why should I?" "They're a lot of men up on your I hill." It was Kit's turn to laugh. If Audrey thought those poker games could te broken up by a lone girl, she was mistaken. "She’s only at Andrew’s a couple of hours a day to clean before she comes to us to milk, and Mrs. Crane says she's a good worker." "A fast worker," said Audrey. “Don’t be so dumb." She yawned. She wanted someone a little more lively for company. “I'm going up to speak to Sophie." She took all her bundles with her as she sidled out of the narrow space. Kit closed her eyes and leaned back against the plush seat She kept hearing Aunt Fanny's voice when she had telephoned her at noon. "Os course. Marvell will be dr lighted at your coming home. It is a kind of anniversary each spring, isn't it?" She must have meant their coming to Colcord yearn ago. but that had been practically winter time. She could remember that first cold night in the house even now. Aunt Fanny was an awful sentimentalist It must be her age. Why. the last time she and Marvell had dined there, a few weeks curlier, Aunt Fanny had talked about her coming out, which Kit didn’t want at all. Marvell had roared. "Out? My darling Fanny," he cried, "my daughter had her coming out party at the Parker House when she was seven years old." Aunt Fanny's eyes had grown brighter and she had nod-led knowingly at stolid Uncle Ben. But she had never brought up that idea again. By the time the train had started, Kit was steeped in a delicious drowsiness. She was conscious of the warm pleasure she felt in going home. Tomorrow she and Marvell would do so much—it would be a day that was a delight to lengthen... and she must ask him about... what was it Audrey had said? Oh. about Poldi. She worked for Furse. that's how it must have started. It would be funny to think of Mrs. Poldi Furse. She wished... Then she must have fallen asleep for her head snapped up sharply and she was aware of the smell of tobacco on the dry air. She opened her eyes and saw Torse looming over her. "May I sit here?" "Please do. Audrey was here but she found someone else." She blinked her eyes rapidly to dispel the sleep in them. "Did you get on at Cambridge?" "I've been forward in the smoker. Go ahead with your nap. 1 have a strong shoulder.” Her smile turned into a wide yawn. He laughed. "I'm awake now." she said. T only dose over the dull parts." she spoke as if the journey was a book she was reading. "At thui tune of the year, from hero on, everything changes

Marvell says the longest journey of the soul is to Walden Pond and I pass it twice a day!" As she spoke she took in every detail that made him attractive, his red hair, dark blue eyes and thin strong face. He looked the way Mrs. Crane wanted Piny to look, "all of one piece." "Marvell told me this morning he didn't expect you this weekend.” He wasn't unfolding his newspaper she noticed. "Will you drive up with me?” •Thanks. It’s a surprise." "You should have let him know," said Furse, frowning. She was surprised at this unexpected rebuke. "I didn't have time and I don’t want to miss anything. When will the apple blossoms be at their peak ?" she asked, turning a little more toward him. “This isn't a tricky season, thank God.
