Don't Neglect Headache: Might Be A Warning .... . « ... V i

YOU'D, probably' have a long search if you started looking for that fortunate man jvho has never had a headache. Medical statistics would lead us to believe that he does not exist, since \the head is rated as the most frequent site of discomfort and painj & More accurate figures were 'provided by World War II when among lO.OOt; men -examined fb»military service, it was - found that more than S percent complained of and severe heada<4ie.' Certainly, there afe few of us who, at one time or another. have not suffered from this disorder in soine degree. Certain authorities state that sft percent or more of all patients consulting'the doctors of the country coin plain of headache. Because 'headaches occur so often,, qnost people are inclined to attach little significance to them. It is well, however, to seek medical attention whenever headaches at all severe. : Probably one of the most frequent types of Headache is-due to emotional or is at least brought on by jjuch upsets, even it it may have, other underlying causes as well. In addition to this nervous type of headache, ther j are many others, among them migraine and tension headaches associated with contraction of the muscles of the head and neck. Th©' headaches due to migraine liaveV recently been successfully controlled with the use of ergotamine preparations combined with

The eastern men are officials in Israeli’s communication departrnent and are tourning America for ideas in revamping telephone systems in ancient Jerusalem and other major cities in Palestine. The Oity dials them a friendly welcome. . • - O— —Or— — Superintendent Brown: Members of the Decatur Schill Board acted wisely and judiciously in selecting W- Guy Brown as superintendent of City schools, succeeding the late Walter J. Krick. We commend their action. Without question Mr. Brown is eminently qualified for the position to which lie has- been named. His appointment as head of our school ; system meets with the enthusiastic a iproval of parents and children. | Local reaction .could not be qtherwise, for Mr. Brown has devoted 35 yearjj of his life to the school room and teaching of youth, which in addition to. Scholastic qualifications equips him for the superintendency, s This newspaper and friends of Mr. Brown\ know that he lives “iis job 'every day.” He has sqhool administration and pedagogy in his blood. He has set a high standard in his profession; and in all of his community contacts. \ . - We congratulate Mr. Brown on his promotion to the highest position in his profession, which as he humbly says, began years ago when he was teacher and janitor in a township school. His is an illustrious career. As a worthy, successor t® Mr. Krick, the Decatur schools should continue to flourish under' the administration of Superintendent Brown.

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE THE STRAY beef was rounded up, the fence repaired.'The haying was over and there ensued a period of light work before the round-up would come in the early fall. It was a time when a man could leave his job tor a few days and ride into town to see what it was like. Some cf the hands did, though Frick tried to hold them to the ranch. /onto noticed the grumbling and he felt that Frick had no good reason to keep them so close to the bunkhouse. However, he did not countermand the segundo’s orders, but one night he kriockecl on the pottage door. Frick appeared and his bulky body blocked the doorway. He made no move to invite Tonto inside. "What’s' up?” he said. There was veiled? insult in his tone. "I hear'you’re holding the boys pretty close,” Tonto said. “Any reason ?” "I need a crew to work the spread.” “Not all of ’em. The boys can rotate on trips to town.” “Tell ’em yourself.” “That’s your job. I’m giving you a chance to straighten it up yourself.” “If that’s the way you want it.” “I want it. Your grouching time’s about up, Ken. A man’s only got so much patience.” Tonto left him standing in the door. He went back to the ranch house and cursed himself for a fool. He should, have dismissed Frick right after the fight. The man roweled like a cruel Spanish spur. Tonto sighed and called on his patience again. He had done the right thing. Every man of the crew knew that Frick had been given every chance to forget his grudge. Saturday dawned bright and fair and Tonto \himself felt the need to escape from the steady routine of work. He saddled Star and headed toward Avrillo. \ When he came to the Rafter K road, he drew rein

and stared at the sign for long, .long minutes then lifted his eyes and followed the yellow ruts of the road to the top .of the hill. He looked toward Avriilo. In sudden decision, he gave the road a parting salute and headed toward the Rafter K. Star sensed a new eagerness in his rider and the bay broke into a swift trot that quickly brought him to the brow .of the hills. The road dipped and not far below Was the Rafter K line fence and main gate. He had just closed the gates after him when he heard the rattle bf wheels and the muffled thud of hoofs. A buckboard came rolling toward him, Lois King handling the reins. A wrinkled old puncher sat beside het in the seat. She halted the team with a flourish and smiled at Tonto. ( “AjviSitor to the Rafter K?” she said, ’ .’ J j • , “You’re riding to he said and she laughed at the disappointment in his voice. She passed the reins to the puncher and handed him a penciled list. i\ “You can get thes<p as well as I. I’ll go back to the ranch with Mr. Riley." , I She was out of the buckboard and swung open the gate. Tonto and the old puncher looked at her in surprise. She laughed at Tonto. “You will give me a ride back home, won’t you?” “Oh, sure.” After the buckboard had rattled through the gate. and on toward the town, Tonto and Lois niounted Star. She rode behind him, fingers hooked in his belt. It was a pleasant way to ride, an iritimate way. She had never been this close to him, and Tonto was keenly aware of the slight pressure of each finger in the small Gs his back. Now that he was with her. he found there was little he could say. Meaningless talk was somehow out of place and he felt that he could not as yet tell her how he really felt.

He had known her such a short time. How Could he say that she intruded into his thoughts air the time? How could he tell her that time and again he had .wanted to drop everything at the Slash S and ride to see her? Yet he had to. His dilemma kept him silent. 0 \ Lots said very little herself, seeming to sense his mood, though not the reason for it. They followed the pleasant trail deep into the hills until they came to a narrow little stream, not more than a foot deep and Star gave signs of want- . mg a drink. “We’d better water Star,” Tonto said over his shoulder. “All right.” He reined Star in and gave Lois a hahd as she dismounted. He swung out ' of saddle himself and the bay lowered its head to the water. Lois moved away a tew feet and stood looking down the stream. Tonto came up* beside her. ’•l've always liked this place. It’s not far from the ranch and sometimes I slip away to come up here arid dream a little.” She' pointed to a tree close to the bank. “I sit over there for hours.” She smiled up at him and TOnto caught his breath. Something within him, choking him. Instinctively he knew that this was the time and the place. His eyes held her and there was a subtle, slow change inj her. Tonto felt it. He touched het shoulders, gently, and turned her j toward him. “I’ve been waiting to say—this.” He kissed her, held her close, kissed her again. For an instant she stiffened and was startled. , Then her arms went up around his shoulders and her Ups responded. At last Tonto raised bis head and took a deep breath. He smiled down at her. I'-" ! “I reckon—l’ve been looking for you all my life.” | 1 “So have I, Tonto. I’ve been a long time waiting.” He kissed her again. Now there wete no doubts. (To Be Continued) &&&
