Wakefield, N.H., a town of 1,256 residents won national recognition 'because of its Town Hall meeting. Following debates by local citi- „ zens, a vote was taken and a majority rightly opposed the impeachment of President Truman. The town is heavily Republican, but sturdy in American ideals and the citisens evidently haven't been swayed by the political maneuvers in Washington. 7 —° —° — A . .1. p. ■■ I i.

Ear Disorder Is Marked a IT is fascinating when we know * that the body gains its sense of balance through little structure’s located in the internal ear; thus anything which damages or disturbs these parts is likely to result id the annoying symptom of "ertigo or, dizziness. Generally, these conditions fall into one of «- three groups. In the first, there is _ a disturbance of the tiny semicircular canals of the ears; in the second, occur those conditions which exaggerate the ear’s nervous reflexes, and in the third, ’ | those destroy the reflexes entirely. . • . In one disturbance of the semia Circular canals, known as Menier’s i*!seaser%the victims appear ds if - /hey were intoxicated. This is due Ito theft- unsteadiness or inability to stand.' In addition to this severe dizziness, there may be sickness at the stomach and voinitihg. Attacks Occur at frequent intervals. While theyj last only a’ lew hours, their effects ftiay be felt for days. Deafness and ringing In “—'the ears accompany the attacks in most cases and 'the power of hearing is slowly/lost. The same sdrt erf symptoms may occur with a long-continued infection in the middle ( part of the eay, and gradual: nerve de st ruction results. There lis dizziness, ringing ofthe ears, and jerking of the eye called nystagmus, along wit® other evidences of disturbance /of the inner ear. Infections of the middle ear, sucty as occur I with meningitis and mumps, are usually responsible for this later conditiqu. Howevef. the overdosage of cer- - drugs, such as streptomycin and aspirin; injuries, and hard-
As a preliminary to Memorial Day, members of the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars will attend services Sunday at Union Chapel United Brethren church in -memory of tho>e who have passed to heavenly rewards. Ihe Rev. Lawrence T. Norris will deliver the memorial sermon and members of the two organisations will participate In the services. The men who served their country in time of war and fought for the ideals of freedom will forever be held in cherished memory by true Americans. 9 —o— —— . ’ ' It Atomic Power Outlook The prospect of useful power from atomic epergy seeded to come Closer recently when the Atomic Energy Commission announced the start of a new program to determine the feasibility of atomic power production by private firms. ' Sumner Pike,? chairman of the commission, has said, 11 |hat he does not foresee in the reasonable future any possibility tha| atomic power will be able to compete with other forms of power. The idea of an atonic plant to make electricity for a city scunds wonderful, but the electricity would cost so much that the city would be glad to go hack to’old-fashion-ed methods. Pike has suggested that atomic power ihay cpme first in Europe, because power sources there are so expensive that atomic energy might be able to compete. L. r. . -’ ‘ : • I? Then what fare the advantages *o be gained from atomic energy for peacetime uses? There should be two advantages. One is that power may be produced in very large amounts. The other is that power in ordinary amounts may be produced by plants sjnaller and lighter thaif present’! plan ts. Atomic plan|s might be practical for ships arfdV possibly smaller moving installations, where economy of space- arid weight might , S \i<: compensate; for added cost. No promise is |re€ seen that atomic energy wilh become the world’s cheapest source of pdwdr, but it may someday enable , the accomplishment of things now regarded as impossible.
By Dizziness 11" 1 ening of the arteries whifth supply the ear, all may cause enough damage to bring oft attacks of dizziness. ; A disturbance of the reflexes may ‘bring on dizziness and Vertigo. This; most often occurs in middle-aged and elderly persons, particularly after nervous strain and worry. The dizziness usually shows ups’ after movements of the head. Howler, severe attacks may last for several days, or there -may be sjlght symptoms which persist for wpeks or months, with dizziness which, is felt especially in the morning, These symptoms ma| disappear after rest and relaxation The inifer ear may be damagedjby infections and poisons to such an extent that alb reflexes from the ear structures are lost, in such | the patient can neither walk nor < stand steadily, and thbifi is mucly dizziness. No treatment seems to be of any particular permanent help in these f cases, since there is nothing , which will restore the nerve. ft patidnt U suffering from attacks of dizziness, examination of the ear structures and testing ot the ear reflexes should be fnftde to determine thq soured of 1 the difficulty.

This lady wants to dance with the guy what brung her.” Chary Jones looked embarrassed. “Don’t say that Mr. McGann escorted me only from a high sense of duty.” Shirley Stanton looked helplessly at McGann, and he made a slightv gesture for silence. He said, "In somebody else’s lyrics—have you met Miss Jones?" | The woman nodded, but not ‘[before Shirley Stanton h|d thrown a barbed look at Farwell. , The guitarist thrummed a commanding chdrd and they turned to see Besser ponderously mounting a chair. “Ladies and gentlemen,” he boomed, "may I now ...” He waited for the babble to subside. It swelled instead. "Ladies and gentlemen," he paused . . . "SHADDUP!” The smile on his shiny face was disarming. They shaddup. He leaped into the lull. "A toast to"our host wherever he is—a fine fellow and party-giver without peer—Ronpie Tompkins!” An approving murmur swept the crowd, and then Besser was speakping again. "Attorney Holton has asked me to sky that he has a surprise for you in the next room. I thank you.” Voices mounted in speculation. Guests were moving toward the door leading into the study. McGann took Chary’s elbow, and she glanced at him questioningly. "Here wfe go again,” he skid. • • • They all strolled across the art gallery together. Shirley Stanton spoke directly to McGann. "I may not get another chance to see you tonight,” she said. "I’d like to invite you over to Hooker's training camp. Some of the others will be there.” “Great," McGann said. Celebrants were around them now and there was warning in his eyes. “Open house\for everyone? Where’s Hooker working out?” "Ma Handy’s. That’s in Unionville, New JerSey. We’Ve got some exhibition bouts tomorrow afternoon.” McGann nodded. “Swell. Like nothing better. And to make Counselor Holton happy you can be giving me a little background on Ronnie.” He spoke nonchalantly, asked Chary, "You don’t model on Sunday, do you—halos or something?” \ "No." She looked eagerly at the redhead. "May I?” / "Os course." ; I "I accept,” Farwell said. "I love Jersey—the dreamy smoke on the swamps, the friendly natives, dawn over Kearny.” [ A flicker of annoyance touched the creamy brow. “But your public—” “My public will have to be brave —braver than my sabbath sponsor anyway. He‘s withdrawn his snake oil ad and I’ve already dusted the studio.” i They were entering the study. Both women seemed to have grown a shade paler. Chary said, “This is where it happened, isn’t it?" “Yes," McGann said, watching her reaction. “The bloodstain’s under that throw rug.” She moved stiffly to a chair. Stanton's

They were coming in, moving pideways along the rows of chairs. A few joked, and laughed but mostly now they seemed curious and a little baffled at the turn in the festivities. Wexton sidled up toMcGarm. The reporter had shed the white waiter’s jacket, and put on his own coat, apparently banking on anonymity in the gloom. They waited without speaking. The rows were filled. Holton closed the door between art gallery and study and glided to the front on silent feet. From the wall safe he took a flat package in what looked like gray flannel, carefully unwrapped it and handed a gleaming black record to FarweU. With expert touch, the disc jockey slipped the recording to the turntable, made quick adjust- 1 ments on the automatic mechanism. The audience was watching in silent wonder. Farwell pressed i a button and stepped back. At the same moment, Holton extinguished all lights except a lamp that shown on the glistening machine. A There was a subdued hum. “Good Cveatnp,” Ronnie Tompkins said. He chuckled. “You* weren’t expecting me tonight, were you! But you know I’d rather die than miss a party . . The smooth voice filled the room, pinning them in their seats. McGann felt the hairs rise along his neck. A wojnan gasped and then they were leaning forward, deathly ; still. \“At one time or another, all of you meant something rather special to me. You were grifters mostly, playing 'Good Time Ronnie’ for what was in it. But don’t look like that. I wasn’t fooled and 1 loved you for what you were.” Pale faces were waxy in the reflected light, eyes fixed fascinated on the machine. The suave, unctuous voice held a note of weariness, of resignation. •‘Yes. You stood my insults if I stood you drinks-r-you took my name if a fortune went with it. You were for sale and I bought you. 1 threw you back so that no one would make, the mistake of thinking I hoped /to buy love. Believe me, I know better than that."

The portraits to a special room at the Metropolitan with funds for the addition of a trustee-dazzling wing. So much to the servants, the house to a nursery settlement. "For each of my wives, and /any bride-elect, one hundred thousand dollars. My attorney will notify others of remembrances. The remainder of my estate to underwrite the institute I have ordered... "Go on, now, with your party, my friends and my loves." The low laugh was a benediction. "I’m with you, you know. I’m here." Heavy silence followed the metallic click. Footsteps sounded in the hall. Kathleen Rogers lifted her face to the shadowed ceiling and her scream cut through the crash of a heavy hand on the door, the splintering of glass. They were on their feet, crying and shoving, and McGann was knifing his way through toward the window when the lights sprang up. "Stand where you are!” O’Callahan thundered. The usually pink face was beet-red, the white eyebrows bristled. "Where is he?” he demanded. "Where —” » ' "Here he is, Inspector.” A bluecoat shoved, Solly Spanish back through the gaping window. “H 0 was flying down the fire-escape like Satan himself. And a cannon in his hand.” » "Aha!’’ O’Callahan lumbered across the room, shoved his face into Spanish’s panic-filled countenance. “A ppwdter you’re taking, eh? Well, take one with us. You and.me will have a nice long talk.” Spanish’s lips twisted but no sound emerged. Irma Nelson elbowed her way to his side, whirled on the inspector. “Why don’t you leave him alone? He didn’t do anything!” “Maybe you’d like to come along ?” "Maybe I would.” J - I "All right.” O’Callahan nodded toward the door. "Both of them,” he told the Huecoat. The cop and Spanish went first, Irma next. O’Callahan looked after them. “Pigs, is it?” he said. He swept the transfixed celebrants with a stern .eye. "Why don’t you people go home ?” he said. "It’s Sunday.” He followed the others out McGann found Wexton sidling toward the door. The reporter’s; eyes glistened. "What a story,”! he said. "I may get a two dollar raise out of this.’’ “Drop by my place after you phone.” x Holton was holding a glass of water for Kathleen Rogers, who was seated but still trembling. The celebrants milled about talking in low tones and gradually drifted out The lawyer mopped his gleaming pate when he stopped beside McGann. "Good Lord,” he said, “I carried out my promise to Tompkins but what a mess,** He shook his head, then smiled at what seemed a comforting thought “I’m certainly glad I thought to bar the press.” “Absolutely,*! .MeGana said.
