Leopold’s 99-year sentence was reduced to 85-years. which makes eligibility for release four years earlier. He is 44 years old now, and based his plea to the parole board on the fact that he offered himself for war-time malaria experiments in prison While mercy is a divine virtue, it senna that Leopold would be just as well off to spend the rest of his life In the peniteniary o o— Plans have been announced for building a circurnurban fourlane highway on the east side of Fort Wayne, which improvement will eliminate the traffic bottleneck in that city’s industrial district. The construction will be financed with state and federal funds and will require several years to complete Growing cities need these modern new highways and connecting links to streets and roads which do not take motorists through the crowded up-town areas Some day a highway should be constructed along the west bank of St. Marys river through Decatur, connecting with a m-w bridge at the north edge ot the city and leading to U. 8. highway 27. Several years ago highway engineers said that such a highway improvement was feasible.

Treatment Used to Reli eve Pain in Legs

By Herman N. Bundesen, M.O. ONE of the discomforts which' come* with advancing year* i* pain In the legs, particularly after walking. Some middle aged and eldarly people are so tormented with this symptom that they are unable to walk for more than a block or so, and cannot nleep because of pain The condition is due to the fact that the tissues of the leg do not Het their proper blood supply, I either because of hardening of the arteries or becauae of repeated spasm in these blood vessels. Recently It ha* lieen treated with great benefit in about *5 out of 100 patient* by using a subataace known normally found in amall amounts in the body, i-arge amount* of it seem to be produced during allergic attack*. The histamine is given by allow in* it to flow alowiy Into the large femoral artery. Between two and five drops of the solution are al lowed to run in with each beat of the heart. When the treatment la successful. a redness appear* over the I thigh spreading to the knee, to the back and fruat of the leg and finally, to the feet. Any pale areas in th« skin Indicate the location of large hl<Mid vessels through which the blood i* not flowing aatiatactorilv It the solution I* allowed to flow la too fast, redness appears on the upper part of the body One of the hunt thing* about thl* Baa truatawfit U that tu cUtcU

Although President Truman -didn't say so in so tew words, his announcement on the explosion of an atomic bomb in Russia, really means that Russia has produced the greatest manmade force of destruction Russia has the bomb. While the presidential statement will have a far reaching effect on world thinking and conditions, mankind felt all along that the Soviet i nion would eventually develop the atomic weapon. To Illustrate how far scivutifk- research has advanced, it is believed that knowledge of the "explosiou'' was picked up by the United States with a new highly refined seismic instrument, like those used to spot earthquakes, which can detect powerful explosions at great distances. President Truman did not seem alarmed over the discovery, but warned that the nations of the world would have to agree on a plan for peace-time control of atomic energy. Yes, this la the atomic age, and as one speaker said. It might be called Year Four. ——o o Lost Cities: An unknown city of a hundred square miles, with battlements, towers, walls and streets, completely deserted, and glowing at night with a phosphorescent light, has been found, of all places, in the dry sandy waste of inner Australia Historians might be agog at this discovery by a group of Australian scientists, headed by Keith Douglas Young. But on close examination this "city" was found to be not man made but the work of wind and storm on limestone Thus vanishes what was first thought to be a chance to find an early historical background for Australia, the continent which has the least known history. The same disappointment meets explorers sometimes in other parts of the world. Henry St. John Pbilby, an Englishman who embraced Mohammedanism, explored Arabia's famous Empty Quarter, a superdesert which even the Arabs shunned. Somewhere in it were supposed to be the ruins of Wabar, capital of Arabia's legendary dynasty, the Adites, who for their wickedness were destroyed by fire. By luck Philby found that be was passing near the supposed -uins, and turned aside to examine them They proved to be purely volcanic. and not the product of human hands. Americans who have visited the towers and battlements of Utah’s Bryce Canyon, and similar rock formations elsewhere in the Southwest, will understand bow such formations can be mistaken for uninhabited cities.

can be estimated in advance on the j basis of one trial infualon of histamine. If thl* bring* about an increases in the temperature of the akin over the calf of the leg. further treatment* will usually relieve pain. At first the treatment* are given once or twice a week. When the patient reaches the point where he ca| walk about 10 blocks without p*in. the treatments are cut to one a month When he can walk alwHit two mile* without pain, the treatment is stopped Os course, the treatment with histamine must be carried out by ■ tee physician who is familiar with the method. a* the preparation must l>* allowed to flow in only al the right speed and with the right amount of pressure in order : to prevent undue reaction*. However. fl seem* that this treatment I* not too difficult to employ and. in view of the relief which it afford*, would seem to be worth wihlle QUESTIONS ANO ANSWERS J.

Q__ - -_O Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE 0 0 Vegetables Try cooking the vegetables by, steaming. This will reduce the loss of minerals and vitamins and is also economical, as several different vegetables may be cooked at the same time. Grass Stains Dip the grass stains into molasses. and then wash out in clear water. Alcohol applied to the spots will also remove them. Floor Wax Do not use too much wax on the floors, as this not only makes the floors too slippery and there-, fore dangerous, but causes dust to collect much more readily.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE ALESSANDRO raised bis voice i to a pitch that fetched the man t who'd been posted at the outer I door. When this fellow stepped | into the study, Alessandro said, t "Where are you keeping Ives and t my girl ?• i "Separate rooms upstairs,** the 1 man said. "One of the boys is I hunkering tn the upper hallway to ( make sure they don’t get away, i And they won’t be climbing 1 through the windows. We picked i rooms above the pen where you 1 keep the hounds. Ives never was t a hand with those dogs.” I “Good thinking," Alessandro applauded. "1 want the two of them < fetched here.” A few minutes later the man i and the girl were shoved into the I study, Lia disheveled and wideeyed, Ives defiant and showing the I shadow of a beard stubble. Alessandro, coming to a courtly stand, i waved them to chairs, but as he 1 seated himself he reached into the i teakwood desk, produced a fancy, silver-inland forty-five and placed i it before him. His wave dismissed i the two men who'd fetched these prisoners, and he said, “Perhaps 1 should begin with an apology. You've been badly treated, the pair of you. But you must understand, Ives, that it does something to a man when he finds himself losing a person who has been like a daughter to him.” His words brought a fla*e of hone to Lia s dark eyes, but Colorado's jaw jutted truculently. “You don't mean a word of it,” Ives said. “This is just another of your cat-and-mouse games. Now start saying what you really want to say." 'And what would you like?" Alessandro countered savagely. "My blessing and a dowry?" "We'd like to be rid of the sight of you!” Ives said. **We'd like to live our own lives in our own way —just as far from here as we could get!" Alessandro spread his hands In a gesture of pained righteousness. Hut first you should learn about each other," he said. “After all, you're really strangers. Lia, did you know that Colorado first came to me as a confessed criminal, one of the many who have headed this way in order to enter Forlorn Valley? Ah, but that's the truth, and Colorado doesn’t dare deny it. 1 offered him a chance at honest work, away to redeem himself. I made him my foreman. And he has repaid by trying to steal you from me. Is this the man of your Choice—this outlaw who been t even gratefulness in him?** ' “I love him." Lia said in a small voice, and this eternal answer of all womankind wrung a smile from Jasper Fogg who made an unobtrusive figure ever against one Walt The dusk was crowding up against the windows now; Alleosandao lighted the lamp on his desk, and his face bedame a hard mask of planes and shadows "And you. Ives?" he said. “It doesn't matter to you what she is?" not:’’ Ives snapped

RED HARVEST

0 — O Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE I 0 0 Q. If a woman is introducing ’ herself socially, should she say. "I am Miss Brown.” or, "1 am Martha Brown”? A. The correct form is “I am Martha Brown.” Q. Should one insist on a friend taking a drink If one knows that he doesn't drink anything with alcohol In its? A. No; n<>r should any comments I be made. Q. Should a man sound bis horn when picking up a friend at his home? A No; he should go to the door and ring the bell

"Yet you should know, and you will,” Alessandro went on, unperturbed. "Many years ago 1 made a trip to India. 1 did some big game hunting; thia tiger skin in the center of the floor is a memento of that trip. They have an interesting manner of hunting tn India: native beaters thresh through the jungle, flushing the game toward the hunter who has merely to sit in safety, waiting for his prize to appear. But you are not interested in an account of that, of course. It’s Lia you want to hear about, and it was in Bombay that 1 found her." He saw that Ives’ interest had quickened, and he drew a feline satisfaction from the man's intensity. “I was invited to put up at the Royal Bombay Yacht Club,” Alessandro went on. "Bombay is the queen of Indian cities, and the Yacht Club .a something to remember. But it was the slums that always interested me. My last night there, I hired a native gharry, a small buggy drawn by a single horse, and I visited those slums. You should see them, Ives. Filth . . . darkness . . . thousands cf people crammed between bare walls on stamped earthen floors... men and women and children with all the loathsome diseases that ever afflicted mankind. Human life is cheap in India. And in this squalor, this sink-hole of all creation, I found Lia, a little tot, dirty and homeless.” "You're lying!" Ives said, leaning forward in his chair. "You think so? Yet that's where 1 found her, and I brought her home with me. Why? Some travelers adopt a young cheetah and fetch it away to raise for their amusement I saw the possibilities of a nobler experiment 1 would take this offspring of darkness and filth and raise her in a manner of an aristocrat and see whether a different environment would stamp out her low-caste heritage. I gave her a name—Lia: it sounded exotic and seemed to fit her, and I bestowed my own last name up -n her. But the child has run true to type.” Aiesaandre spread his hands again. "Her parents? Who can tell? There are many religions in i Indi*, most of them Imsed upon bloodshed and voluptuousness. For I instance, tbs women st the followers of Krishna are taught that the highest biles tn heaven and oa earth is theirs if they submit 1 to the caresses of the no’y men i of their faith. Doubtless Us e own mother, called upon to identify the child's fiisedy, Ives/ Ccaae eat o/ that chair and yea rs a dead I mas."* ! The gun was in AWseandro's I hand, and Ives, his face twisted with anger, sank back into hie » chair. Lia had preaaed her face into her palms; her head was > bowed, and dry soba shook her. ■ But still Alessandro talked on, i using words as he might have ! used a lash, cutting and slashing I and stinging until he was spent l with the effort. Now he said in a calmer voice. . rive told you this so each of you

will know what he or she is bargaining for. Ives, are you still sueb a fool that you'll throw away your place with me for tAatf” Ives was chalky white, and his voice trembled. "Someday somebody Is going to kill you, Alessandro,” he said. "If there’s any justice under heaven, that man is going to be me!” Ida's face wax white too, white with humiliation and shame, but her eyes were alive with bale. "Jock said you were cruel, cat cruel," she said. "1 didn't believe him. 1 didn't want to believe him. Now 1 know he was right. 1 was in the hall yesterday when you spoke to the prison guard, Tate Strunk. You are going to let us go, or 1 will find away to tell who really killed that man, Justin St. John!" Alessandro's shout fetched the two men from the hall. "Take them away," Alessandro said wearily, "and lock them up again." After the prisoners had been removed, he sat hunched over his desk, a man turned older, a man defeated. He seemed to have forgotten Fogg's silent presence, and be mechanically reached into his desk and produced a small, faded tin type which he propped up against the lamp. It pictured a woman's face, dark and exotic. Beside this tin-type he laid the gun, and for a long time he sat studying these two objects in mute contemplation. Finally Fogg said. "So now you've got a choice to make. She knows something that could put your neck into a noose, and you're remembering that you've got to kill her to Insure her silence. But that picture stands between you and what you'll have to do. Quito a choice, isn’t it, Seton?” Alessandro started nervously: across the lamp he looked at Fogg as though he were just discovering the man's presence, and he said, "Ymi're gloating, blast you! You re laughing because you've seen me licked by her, and that pleases that shrivelled, whiskey-besotted soul of yours. I've told you too much about myself, Fogg. Far, far too much." "Listen!" Fogg cried. "A rider’s coming up. And in an almighty burry, I'd say." , Out yonder hoofs were pounding, slithering ta a stop, and leather squealed as a rider dismounted tn the yard. Another moment and his boots were beating along the hall, and the man himself came bursting into the study, doe of Frank Busby's deputies, he said, “The sheriff sent me, Alessandro. You'd better come to town. He'll have Clark Rayburn locked up la jail pronto—he captured him earlier tonight” "Rayburn!" Alessandro said and came to a stand. "Raybum's out of the valley?" And because this was not as he'd planned, he wondered how he'd fit this new development into his scheme of things. But with a flash of inspiration he was already seeing uu way(Ta Be Continued;

Amish Pupils Absent From Geneva School Berne, SepL 24—R. O. Hunt, principal of the Geneva school, reported yesterday that the attendance record of the Geneva high school has been cut down considerably by the failure of the Amish students to attend Only one of the 14 Amish students enrolled attended the past two weeks. The reason is raid because the Amish bishop apparently has misinterpreted the atendance law and has informed bis people of his interpretation. The 1949 attendance law in Indiana says that every child from 7 to 15 years of age Inclusive shall attend school (until the 14th birthday) Mr Hunt said the county attend-
