Chorles D. Teeple: A Ifew months ago Charles D. Teeple moved from Decatur to St. Joseph, Mich., so he and his wife could be near their daughter, sonindaw and grandchildren. But Charlie Teeple was not forgotten back home, nor did he forget his home town. \ L- Friends are saddened with his death. He was in declining health when he left this city. Inwardly, he must have had the string desire to spend his remaining days with ohes. ' ’ \ V.. ' :: : Born in our neighboring town of Willshire, Mr. Teeple came to Decatur when a young man. He was railroad telegrapher and later engaged in the clothing -business, devoting almost 30 years to ■Y - ? _ tint retail endeavor. ’, ■ A prominent member and former Sunday school superintendent of the First Presbyterian church, Mr. Teepl<» believed \in and expounded the virtue of brotherhood. He lived by his ideals, which were those of a Christian, lawabiding citizen. good neighbor and Wcvoted head of an admirable /family.; ' ■ r .'4 / ... —0 o Rotary's Position:— Wrong leadership could have taken control of Rotairy International in foreign countries, for there ts infiltration of anti-re- 1 ligious and Conymunist doctrine in many organizations in those lands, but certainly there isn’t anything wrong with the Rotary clubs in this country. ' ( A condition, affecting RotAry\ 'in.\Spitn, Mexico or in other parts °f th|k3yorld, must have been the reason for the Vatican to' forbid membership of priests in trie service dubs. members are not barretf'from joining or remaining rhentbers, according to the Vatican announcement. A United dispatch further states that. ■ Vatican sources said the decree was aimed at some European Rotary clubs and not at clubs in the U. S. or Canadaii” Rotary, is a service organization, built on the ideal of service to the community, state and na- ■. ti<>n. Its slogan of “Service Above , : Self." is an if lived-up to x j by all members and all .mankind would i|ot only contribute to, but actually make a better world. For a world gojal, Rotary stands for. advancement of international understanding f good will and peace through a world fellowship of; business and 'professional raen united in the ideal of sery- ■ ice.” ' '-'J' ' \ /' fl .* ? j 4

Thrombosis | becomedefoyftied. SJoine pair, still, continues. There niay be burning’ pain due to Jarring, 1 drafts, .or emotional upsets. In sodie Cases, blisters appear on the l ands, and ulcers or sores , form. It is fortunate .that this condition can be overcome to some extent by the use of a drug known as WEttmmn,” or by the Injection of local anesthetics into the 1 sympathetic nerve. An operation. on cutting of • these sympathetic ynerves, also will relieve this condition. With proper treatment, the symptoms disappear in mailyy instances. It is . important that the .condition he recognized, promptly when it occpjs, since Jearly treatment may help tb prevent expensive permanent damage tol the tissues. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS (’. J.: What causes ears to keep ringing? Answer: Ringing in the ears may be due to a niiinlwr of causes, such as anemia, kidney' disease, and anj accumulation of wax in'the the tube connecting live .ear with •ear. as well as to an iinfection in the mouth. It would be advisable to have 'a physical examination made by your physiciah to determine . the cause of this condition. When the cause has been found, it wll be possible for the’ L doctor to advise you as ..to treatment. .\\■■ ' • . , ■ .' ’ i

CHAPTER FOURTEEN SOMETIMES Pete and Donna, sitting in the dimmer coiners of ballrooms, used vto encounter the sympathetic eyes of Little [Joe and feel that he was playings to them alone. 1 They would forget then that Pete was wearing a, rented dress suit which pulled across pis wide ■ shoulders, that they didn’t nave any money to get married, that they might be found out by Donna’s father any day. For it was to them alpne, in such moments, that Little Joe would play the song they called theirs, J the one about; the lovers who loved High places, lone places, places where the moon shines silver-gold . . . It was a song which persisted for years, \ like Stardust. It j always made Donna think of a fdee with deep-set gray eyes, broad, high cheekbones, a proud, frte \face which bore no kinship to any other. Years later, Donna left parties when £f igh Places was ; played. Her husband, Mark Allison, said it was one of the rudest things she did. She didn’t care. The heart can stand only so much. The young Swiss accordionist played gay modern tunes to please the American customers. Donna was relieved at his youth. He wouldn’t know the tunes of the nineteOn-thirties, back m the dark ages of his childhood. He was fresh and ruddy-faced and postwar. [ v , • i Then the man. sitting alone at the bar, big feet in arnpy boots twisted about the stool crossbars, motioned to him. Whatever he said to the accordionist, the music changed. It turned slow and sentimental. >' 1 | Donna finished her drink and rose angrily. “I like music |happy. and gay, the kind you were playing before,” she, told the youngster imperiously tn her unaccented French. “Play the tunes from our new hit shows. You know them, don’t you ?” Yes,; the boy knew all the current sbng hits, but, he told Doram smilingly, the gentlemap at the bar had paid him to play older, sadder tunes. “I’ll pay you , more,", promised Donna, storing with a 'kind of fascination at the broad, truculent back of (the stranger. His khaki battle-jacket showed strain at the shoulder seams. The back didn’t move. The head was held stiff and proud, the head or a proud, free man. “Will you play my music?” she asked the accordion boy. Certainly, but of course, he Would be happy to play lor Madame. it Monsieur released bim ■ '•■‘■A

The Editor: My attention has been called to an article in a recent issue of your -paper in which I was requested\ to comment on the municipal power problem. I am not acquainted with the detail? of the undertaking nor with those who are promoting it, but |l, am interested in the welfare of my home town. . In fifty of experience as a mechanical engineer I have assisted in building many power projects for private corporations ami public bodies. But during that period the larger public utilities have established the unique record of gradually reducing the price of electricity’' in the face of rising prices for practically all Ather important living necessities. That is why moVt. of' the electrical plants which I helped to build sopner or later became une coho laical to operate and have been torn out. But in cases the boilers, pumps, [and other similar equipment ane required so that tlni-e portions of the plants are still operating. In fact these plants were built tq include generation qf electricity as <a result of arguments advanced by the engineers that it would ohly be an additional service to bei obtained from a plant which must be built in any case and that savings which would be gained iir u?ing exhaust stiea,tn\ for heating and manufacturing processes would make thd venture pay but. I take greater pride in those poweit generating stations; most of them in comparatively recent years,, which 1 caused notj to be built. It takes considerable ciouragle to surrender and withdraw from an ill-advised undertaking. In most-of these ease's the plans were well advanced and (the money jvas in tin budget, and available., But events which cbuld nqt have been' anticipated have since occurred which would have brought disaster,, financially or physically, ’to these plants had they been built. Both at (the start of the first and of the second world war I was busily; engaged on cne bundled million dollar projects. In each case the government ’ordered the wo'i-k' ; stopped and we marked ,'time for a I’ew years. But the paying of interest and many o|her c xpeases did hot When work wajs resumed cos s had tripled. J.We recently completed One portion-of the work at a cost of SS.qOO.t|OO whic h was t bout to be contracted for at $ J.aOMOO eight years ago. . Any project started at this time faces the possibility of similar delay and financial Embarrassment. The price of electricity produced by the major power companies i< regulated by our governmental bo lies the past record i c excelde pt l oth as to cost and reliability, risks are assumed,by (he frek Rulers; under such conditions the city o h Decatur .will make no mistake if it continues to' purchase power) for at ifeast the duration of the present emergency. a WISON BROCK. •‘<7-15 Cornell Ave. Chicago, 111.
