Deficits are made up from large contributions. but these do not seem to bo as generous as in days when taies did not take a big pt """' im ome. While no one would want to see the Met abandoned, it is IHWulble that music lovers are hanging unro something that the country jfft longer will support. Pop opmas. or a smaller outlay for the Who ajMW tlurlntt he «7ason might be ways of solv ng the opera's financial diffhnlles.

CRAFTER TWENTY-THREE AT LUNCH. "For a little thing, you eat a lot," Michael remarked. "I enjoy eating,” Uaa replied reasocably. "Also, it sustains life.” Tt'a vtry expensive, the way you do It.” “I shall pay for It, then.” "Don't bo ridiculous.” "What distresses you. Michael V 1 am not distressed.” "It is the brushoff?” she Inquired. "But that Is what I promised you. You can't have it your way. Patty wouldn't brush off. So you must be. And by her. In this way, she retains her pride, and you have your freedom back, unthreatened.” He said gloomily, ”1 miss her booking.” Uza sighed "My friend, make up your mind. If her cooking is so . important, rush back to her, enB treat her pardon, and marry her as soon as you can procure the necesaaOy papeea” Michael grinned. He took off his glasses, burnished and replaced them. He said, "Okay, so my male vanity is wounded." —“R need not be,”-aai4 Uaa, her speech crackling with celery. She looked about her, at the open-air ease, the awnings, the umbrellas “This in really enchanting.” ' "Stick to my vanity. Why not?" "Tou have but to inform Patty that the things I told her about you were fabrications'' "What things? Don't think I haven’t known that you gave her an earfuL But of what?" She told Mm, beginning, "When a week ago Monday night, we repaired to the powder room, your I'atty and I . . . “ He listened, speechless. When he found his voice, he aaid. "My poor parents—" 1 kno v. Pm truly sorry, Michael. about that. But I had to give you a background She's from i lowa and beli<wes in heredity."' "What has being from lowa to do with it F” ■1 don't know. Did you know she was from Iowa?” "Tea. of course. I knew everything about her " "Without doubt." said Lisa, applying herself to a mixed green salad and remarking that the dressing was a tnfle too sharn. "Not In the sense you think, wretched woman." "I did not thmk that, not after meeting Patty.' she lixAeu at him rerroschful! - * "A nice g-.r:.," she aa I. "pleas' p'asa the re -• .. . ”-|l and added, "tar too good f~r jkix'i

Gov. Scbricker makes another good suggestion toward better government in recommending that tbe general Assembly be extended to a 01-day session. Tbe added 30-days would give the legislators more time to study and act on tbe various bills introduced. However. the change cannot be made n legislature sessions without an imendment to tbe state constitution. The 1951 session may start the ball rolling toward this objective. Decatur Elks will have the singular honor ot being host to Joseph B. Kyle, grand exalted ruler ot this American fraternal organisation and. civic leader ot Gary. Mr. Kyle will be the lodge's guest on December 8 and tbe local committees headed by J. K. Eady, exalted ruler, are planning to make the evening a happy occasion tor Decatur and visiting membra. The program will be featured with a banquet and a talk by the leader of Elkdom, one of Indiana's distinguished gentlemen. . o o Tbe Christmas Savings club ot the First State Bank has distributed Over 1100,000 to Its members, which means that they wHI have money in their pockets for Christmas shopping, or a nest egg for a perpetual savings account. The new club opens next month and tbe bank anticipates even a larger enrollment than the record set this year. Joining the club and keeping up the weekly payments is k sure way ot saving part ot your yearly income.

as it happens." She crackled some , more. Then she said. "So when we had tea I told her about your uncle I Fowler, who had to be put away—" • “I haven't an uncle Fowler,” be , said, aghast. "I haven't even an uncle!” "No? Tour uncle Fowler,” she said, “was a genius. He was a • writer. But never recovered from his experiences In the drat World • war. In those days, it was called • shell shock. On his return home r he went back to the newspaper be i edited in your home town—By the i way, what is your home town? I I’ve forgotten.” "X was born la New York Qty, Borough oC Manhattan ** f -Oh. Well, possibly, I said, bls home town. He wrote with great r brilliance, but became more and > more despondent. When on one and ■ the same day subscribers objected ■ to his editorial on the local political ■ situation and a proof reader omitted quotation marks, be set i Are to the office, went home, and 1 threatened his wife, with a Luger.” i \ “Lisa, you are making this up!” "Os course.“unless you really r. have an uncle Fowies."_ "I mean, you're making it up ■ that you made it up.” "Perhaps I didn't put It quite so bluntly,” admitted Lisa, “but I did ' convey a suggestion of insanity, on • your mother's side of the family." "Merciful heavens!” said Mich- ’ acl. I She said, "Your vanity will re- ■ cover. Meantime you are free. Now, as to the other part of our i bargain.” - "What bargain?" he said warily. “Toy remember, quite clearly. We will have dinner one night ■ soon. You and- I. and several of ■ your friends. You-, havi friends, other than B|H?” ■> T. "Numerous. Most of them are - married, or frustrated, or too trusting to be exposed to you, Liza." She aaid. “After I thought It over I came to the conclusion that you were not going to prove belp- ’ fol I suppose I can manage alone." "You’D manage " She said piteously, “So far. no prospects. This time, with Hiram Mason driving MM .... * "Well?” She said, "I do not like him. He is a stuffed shirt.

In Two Minutes: Fourscore and seven years ago Abraham Lincoln uttered his greatest masterpiece at Gattyw burg. On November 13, 1863, the National Soldiers' Cemetery was dedicated at Gettysburg, and Us coin was asked, by virtue ot his position as President, to make a few remarks. The chief oration of the dsy was to be made by Edward Everett ot Massachusetts, wbo had been governor, senator, secretary ot state, minister to Great Britain, and president ot Harvard University. The cabinet was Invited, too, but half of tbe members sent declinations. Carl Sandburg. Lincoln’s biographer. gives tbe fullest account ot the occasion. His statement is that the president wrote bis remarks out the night before. This refutes the legend that he wrote them on an envelope while riding on the train to Gettysburg. Lincoln consulted bis manuscript only occasionally while he spoke. His voice is described as "a sharp, unmusical treble,” which, however. could be heard at tbe extreme limits of tbe crowd of fifteen. thousand or more. Newspaper estimates of the speech varied in accordance with tbe political affiliations of tbe papers. Only Everett, a judge ot public oratory, wrote. "I should be glad if I could flatter myself that I came as near to the central idea of the occasion In two hours as you did in two minute*.” In The Services Mary Catherine Schafer, WAF is confined to the hospital at Lachlend Air Force Base San Antonio Texas, according to word received hare by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Max Schafer. She has an injury to her wrist. On Furlaugh Hero »Pfc. Rolland Scherry son of Mrs. Ella Scherry. is spending a 111-day furlough here. He will go to San Diego. Cal. for fuhher training inext week. . ; Disco.ery’ of the tuberculosis Brooklyn Bridge was opened May 24. 1883.

> "Not yet He is very cautious i He's a banker.” i "How do you know that?" de- ' manded Michael. "What a thing to , say—about a man!” i “That's a curious wsy to take it" Uza remarked. Bhe took an offered menu and decided upon cheese, crackers, and a small cof- ' fee. "Really, MichaeL* ' —"But how do you know ?" . “Well," said Uza, "it is obvious. I think. Ho is forty-live and unmarried. I appear a trifle too young, in his Judgment to be a , proper candidate for the position of Mrs. Mason. Also, I have been married. I am quite certain that ■ be would prefer a maiden lady.” Michael jumped again, nervously. I "Uza, for heaven's sake!" “As his bride,” Uza went on ImI perturbably. “I am. however, or I seem to be, docile—that Is, until I the other night, when I am afraid I shocked him somewhat" “That I gotta hear." “No. Docile enough, and suflV I clently well bred. Also, there is ' the money. But, on the other hand, ' Hiram would prefer a young wom- ' an, of say thirty to thirty-live, with kind parents, both Anglo-Saxon—-i they seem less unpredictable to him, I dare say—and an eventual inheritance, which he would administer. He would prefer a pleasant, firmly guided hostess, and one who would consent to mother two healthy children: a boy and a girL" She spoke Idly, almost at random, but Michael saw her face change slightly. Then she went on. “They would have a house in, I think, Westchester, of the Queen Anne type—and of course, a. flower garden." "Where do you come In?” Michael demanded.. "Not there, certainly. But I am young,' attractive, and a widow. Men are almost as notional about young, financially Independent widows as they are about divorcees. I am certain Hiram would never marry a divorcee; and that he would prefer not to marry a widow. In an affair he would demand discretion,- and Impeccably, good taste. This Is not easy to find. He must have been greatly disappointed, a time or two," said Liza, "and he becomes righteously indignant and moral if, for instance Ha is confronted by a man who has found consolation and does not care who knows IL” Michael SJiked. with great respect. "What Ho you intend to do?" "Teach him a leaser said Liza. ’F.nd him a wife I To •« Cealiaaad/
