The recent hot spell did not impair the water supply. Sjjpt. Ralph Roop of the municipal department, informs the public. The wells east of St. Mary’s river are pumping enopgh water for the softening plant and the supply is sufficient to meet demands. Os all community assets and re- , sources, water is probably the most important. We should continually strive to keep an adequate reserve* of good producing water wells. o—— —o .

Improper Use Os Antibiotics 1
WE are accustomed to think of the antibiotic drugs as whollj Lenef ictal,.'but recent studies have ;hown that they are not without their own ’ particular brand of danger when not properly used. This fact again calls attention to the thing I havfe. emphasized so often -the hazard of taking medicine without the supervision of a physician, \ ’ Two of the antibiotics—aureomycin and chlotamphenicol—are concerned in the studies men tioned above. Patients treated vnth this combination over a long time developed j illnesses which had all the hallniarks of multiple vitamin deficiency In a severe degree. ’ 4 ■ In one group there was severe nausea and vomiting, heartburn, belching, A and a ; feeling of pressure in the pit bf the stomabh. with diarrhea, It was also noted that the stools of- individuals became odorless. ; These changes were believed to hgve been cause 1 i y a destruction of the normal bacteria usually present in the intestine. , ;4\ .. Changes representing a ribo-* flavin or " vitamin B-2 deficiency were also noted. .Minor bleeding tendencies in various areas were reported and thought to be due to a deficiency of; vitamin K, the Vitamin which helps the clotting of\the blood. Fungus infection, also, was fairly constant in these individuals, because of the fact that < . V—=• ■■ zi» It Itt TirAV’Pllt I

A The latest casualty list from Korea shows approximately 10,000 men in the four brunches of our armed services as “jnissing.” Explanation is made |hat some pf the men have been found, but tie total is not greatly. Effected. It |s puzzling to the person in this country, that so larjje a number are listed among the jmissing. \The Soldier or person acquainted with battle experience, Explains that many men are seperated irop their original company and therefore are listed on missing list. Others have been ijioved to uhfdenified sectors, tjiey say. In pome cases tke numbers of injured and missing duplicated. .Whatever the reasjn, we hope tjiat everyone of thq 10,000 conje th tough safely an<| that their names will be to the list of the living. 5 : : ■ . \ J ' Florida Governor yiarren made a convincing point! for statep’ rights in his letter of refusal so appear before the committee investigating; crime and gambling in Florida and othfr states.

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX TEX regained consciousness not long after Frick had left, but no one told Tonto. Jcae Ide doctored the boy again and- that was as much as anyone could do for him. Sometime in the night Tonto awoke, on the He felt horrible, brain fogged, thirsty. He groped his way to the kitchen, stumbling a cou pie of times over 1 shadows. His -th ir s t quenched, he. went t„o the bedroom and undressed -to drop off to sleep again almost instantly. But it wasn’t restful. He had drcams that kept him twisting and turning. Frick’s face would loom close, seemingly within inches, and then fade far away whqn he tried to strike out with his fist. But it seemed ,that Tonto had to hit that face. It had something very important to do with Lois King, but Tonto cpuld not determine what it ' was. He chased the leering face with all his might, but always Frick remained elusive just ahead of him—and laughed, * j Tonto awakened with a sense of relief. He proceeded leisurely to dress. He went out to the bunkhouse but Tex was sleeping and Tonto didn’t want to disturb'him. He came back after a big breaks fast at the cookshack while the crew rode out under Jess Ide’s orders. Tex was awake when Tonto returned. He tried to grin but /it ended in a wince. Tonto rolleq a cigaret, stuck it in the boy’s mouth and lit it. Tex inhaled gratefully. “Frick and me,” Tex said at last, “had trouble. Maybe I ought to say I had the trouble and Frick passed it out” \ “You got a heap to learp, Tex ” "Os course, I knew he could whip me! But I couldn’t just take the raw deal he was trying to hand out The \crew wouldn’t have worked with me after that. Frick would never have let up, eithej’." Tonto nodded, understanding. “Frick’s gone—permanent.” "Off the payroll, maybe. But you’ll see more of him.” "I expect it,” Tonto agreed. He smoked for a while. Tex painfully shifted. "Once before,” he said reminiscently, “I got into a fight with a segundo. Won that one, too —only I got fired.” Tonto grinned, knowing what the young puncher meant. He shook his head. “Don’t be a fool. You’re

still on the payroll. But don’t make a habit of fighting segundos. It’s no good.” ■ • “Who takes over?” Tex said abruptly. \ . I “How long you aim to work here?” Tonto said, disregarding the question. Tex looked surprised. “I dunno. A long time, I reckon. Lcastaways as long as you’ll keep me on the payroll.” \ '*■ “No itcl\y feet? No wanting to go out yonderly to see what’s there?” “Now that’s a hard question, Tonto. I might someday, of bouriie. But, none of us knows what, we’ll be doing a yea/ from now—or even if we’ll be doing at all.” “Read the brand as it stands/’ Tonto said flatly. Tex gave him a, wqndering look, stored up at, the top of the \ bunk for a long time, brows knotted. “Right now, I’d say'Tex Jonas thinks a heap of the home range, meaning the Slash S. I’ve do'pe a little prowling, but I don’t like it too well. I get around, but right at home,” ,\ , , A “At your age I’d traveled considerable," Tonto said absently. “Kept right on until I came to the Slash S." “That’s you. I never quit a job yet.” Tex grinned wryly. “I’ve always been fired.” “You’re young Tex,” Tonto said. He leaned back and caught his lifted knee In his locked hands. “You know a lot but there’s a heap more you’ve got to' learn about ranching.” “I can ride, rope and brand —” He stopped when Tonto shook his head. ' • i “Not that kind of learning. You’re a top hand now.lßut you’ve got to learn the way \an owner thinks. You got to start learning the price of winter feed, and about the markets. You’ve got to savvy freight rates and shipping points.” “I’ll never own a spread!” . “I can’t tell from here,” Tonto chuckled. “Might be in the cards. But yotj can become a good segundo, Tex, right here on the Slash S someday.’ > , “Me!” Tex jerked upright and sank back with a groan. “That’s why I sort of wanted to know about you. Frick’s gone and I’m putting Jess Ide in his place. Jess is old but he’ll make a good segundo if I read him right.” “The best!” Tex cut in loyally.

“Sure. Rut if you were older, Tex, and hftd more savvy, you’d have the job. I want you to start getting yourself ready for it. You’ll follow Jess here at the Slash S." Tonto broke off, shrugged and smiled, "—if I have the Slash S at the end of two years.” "Rick Staples,” Tex murmured. He stared across the room and out the windows. “You’ll take care of that, Tonto.” "Sure,” Tonto Arose. "You get back in the saddle as soon as you can. Start watching and asking questions. Jess and I’ll both answer ’em for you. Take it easy.”Tonto left the bunkhouse. He checked with the cook on supplies and then\ went to the ranch house. He entered the little office and sank down at the dbsk. He looked through the window at the high hills and wished that he could be riding through them. With a sigh, he reached for the ledger Bradley had brought, opened it, and picked up a pen. Only the faint scratch of the point broke the silence of the little room. Tonto remained close to the Slash S for the next few days. Tex continued to improve and, on the sceond day, was in the saddle again. He rushed things, but Tonto said nothing, knowing how the ybung puncher would feel about being \confined to a bunk. Toward the end of the\ week Tonto rode to Avrillo again. He had not lieard anything from Frick since the man had been driven from the Slash S, but Tonto felt certain he wpuld be in town. There was a good chance for trouble. However, he rode by the Golden and saw no one. He pulled in before the General Store and spent some time there in lazy talk while he gave his order.‘Sid Harper took the list, glanced up at Tontq. “Frick’s been around town for a few days.” . \ “I reckoned he would be/’ “He’s; been talking a heap,” Sid went on, "and making it pretty f loud., T gathered you fired him.” Tonto horded, nothing more. “I don’t think Frick’s all blow, Tonto.” I "Where is he now,?” Ui “Don’t exactly know. Heard he rode out this morning. Don’t forget him—now or any time.” “Thanks, Sid, I’ll watch. I’ll pick this up later.”, ’ \ (To Be Continued) '

Friday The 13th, Two Celebrating Birthdays Today For sohie, Friday the 13th is filled with superstition,’ a day to beware of such things as black cats, walking under a ladder and similar acts which might possibly upset the normal routine. You know Iww those things go: even the most intrepid quake just ia, little, knowing not what the day might bring. Then, after an uneventful day, a gentle sigh of relief is offered; and the truly superstitious looks apprehensively forward' to the next Friday the J3thv There are others, who figure such a day nothing but one of 365 in a year. For others it’s a glorious day, for that’s when the pay envelope is opened. (We aren't talking about Saturday when the paycheck, like an anemid golf shot, is spent before R ac( complishes we're talking about Friday the 13th). . Still, for at least two,others. Friday the 13th means celebrate another birthday anniversary. Included in this group are Michael R. Carr, the son of Mr. and. Mrs. Robert F. Carr, of ropte 3, who is eigftt years old today, and Tom Drew, spn of Mr. and Mrs. Thurman 1. Drew, also of route 3, who is 16. 'y Mrs. Carr said that only a fam i]W party would be held for their son—“nothing elaborate.” Little is planned by the Drews, either, to celebrate their son’s birthday anniversary, but Tom himself is to join some friends who plan a weekend camping trip at Crooked Lake. Then., finally, there is that group who never bothers to look at a calendar, consequently is never quite certain what thd .day might be. For example, there is the case of the solicitous husband who called his wife to see if everything was all right bn this day of evil doings. She-asked why he called and he replied because it was Friday the 13th, and she merely said, I .didn't realize that.” He huijg up dejected that the day was held so lightly \>y his wife. He hung up the receiver,, then looked around the room. There wasn't a black cat in sjght.
