President Truman flew over the flopded areas in Kansas and Missouri today, acquiring first hapd information about conditions in that section of the country, It seems that if emergencies aren’t arising in other parts of the world, something breaks loose over here ]which requires immedi--1 ate and unvisual action, the big problems failing on the President’s, dsk. t A Chicago hyponotist claims to have found the Utopian solution . ~ for the problems of people who want to lose weight. Through the device of hypnotism he implants ijL bis customers a distaste for fattening foods, so that they don’t teat- them. As a result they lose weight. He says it works. On the ether hand a lot us like to- be it J hypnotized with good food. ■ ■ -■ The city pool at Walerworks park is a popular place for the children. Every afternoon hundreds visit the place and enjoy the refreshing water of the well regulated and supervised pool. There is no better sport than a in the water.

, THE medical scientist does, not need to sigh for worlds to conquer. During .the past few years we have triumphed over many of the acute infectious dis- z cases only to became increasingly,? pware of the great burden of sickness and disability caused by chropic or long-term illness. It is in this field that mucn ’medical attention is now being I concentrated, not only in the hope of preventing many of these ailments, but also in the attempt to bring about the happy adjustment of those who, though they look forward to Complete k*ures, can still lead useful lives it; ■ they _learn to live willin 'their ; physical means; C,The 1 scope of the problem is great, for the, roster of chronic diseases includes such conditions as heart disease, hardening of the arteries, high blood pressure, nervous and mental disorders, arthritic ailments kidney conditions, tuberculosis, cancer, diabetes, hay fever and asthma. The problem not only involves providing those who need it-witty proper institutional care, but also finding means, of prevention, ways of earlier diagnosis, and means of rehabilitation for those vrho are past the danger period of the disease. iThe proper physical and mental therapy during convalescence

President Truman has asked congress for 15 million dolIr.rs tri aid the/stricken communities, along with the assistance from the Red dross. When Viewing our fertile and verdan| fields in this county, it/s difficult to realize that otluer sections ’of the country are trying to survive through one oh the worst floods iu the nation's history. -t-o | The death ofpLj. “Felix-’ Graber, creamery executive of> Huntington, brought/ sadness to his legion of friends in Adams-Coun-ty. Prior to 1310 Mr. Graber lived in this city and was sales manager of Cltfierlgaf Creameries. He was a 11191st likeable 'young man and practically everybody in the county kne£w the amiable, enthusiastic He was'widely known ih circles and had climbed the ladder' of success in the vast {jjloyerleaf organization. During his extended ilfnris? his friends thought of him\ often and his death brought*a tear to those who loved and admired the smiling, happy go-lucky Felix Graber. b—T° Czech Unrest: — News {reports from Czechoslovakia show that Communism has rot brought peace and. plenty to that country.

can do much to bring such people back to usefulness despite certain handicaps whicth; may remain. In every instance an attempt should >e made to re turn:'them to useful work as soon is possible.

CHAPTER TWNETY-EIGHT THE TRAIL did a great deal of twisting, made another turn and suddenly emerged Into a circular little clearing. Tonto Instantly drew rein. A shack sat there and a horse stood before the closed door, reins trailing. The shack evidently had been built by some nester and abandoned years before. The brush and trees had cbvered it and Tonto realized he must have caught a stray reflection of sunlight against one of its few windows. Then he noticed that the windows were gleaming clean, neat white curtains at each of them. The horse was saddled. It looked around, ears lift* ing. lt whinnied and Tonto instantly leaned forward and clamped Star's muzzle. T It was too late. The door abruptly swung open. Tonto stiffened in sheer surprise. Ruby Sevier looked blankly at him, and arrange parade of emotions flicked across her face as quick as thought itself. She wore a light cotton house dress and a red ribbon kept her hair back from her forehead. She caught herself and smiled. She stepped down from the door in a lithe, graceful movement. Her eyes deepened and the smile suddenly held a subtle that made Tonto’s blood race. “You’ve found mej* she said tn mock concern. "Light and come in.” Tonto dismounted and took his time lifting the reins .over Star’s head and dropping them. The expected appearance of Ruby Sevier in this hidden shack had caught him off balance j and he needed the few seconds to adjust himself. At last he turned. "You have invaded my secret playhouse, sir. Do I have your solemn word you’ll keep silent about it?” ' .. AF? ■ f : Tonto looked at the house, back St her. “Why?” he said abruptly. She laughed, made a little gesture with her hands. “Can you imagine a grown woman playing house like a little girl ? The darling biddies of Avrillo would say I’m ipsane. You know, they might be right. Never mind. Come in. There’s no strings. Talk about it if you like.” She turned and opened the door. Tonto removed his hat and stepped in. He stared around him. There were three rooms here; the living room In which' he stood, a kitchen directly back of it. To the left a narrow door opened into a bedroom. Tonto glimpsed a marbletop table with a tall and graceful lamp that had a flower painted bowk A' hooked rug was on the floor, one edge showing beyond the door.' , J : J .

Junior Police Will Supply Life Guards Robert Railing, leader of the Decatur junior police organisation, has assured county agent ,L. E. Archbold that his group could supply life guards for the 4-H club camp thht will be held at Lake McClure August 19-22. Tnder Railing’s direction, a group of the junior police members took training in the Purdue ( enter at Folrt Wayne last winter. Rqbert Lobsliger and Richard Gaskill of Decatur are aiAong those *vho qualified as . life guards and will be available tor service in the 4-H club icamp. j As guards they will supervise the\ general swim periods and use nf boats. will also teacn classes in beginning and advanced swimming. I \ Among the; workers at America’s) first successfully operated iron works were a group es Indentured Scotch prisoiiers. of W’ar who performed labor at th4 iron works in exchange for their liberty.

Ruby took his hat and Tonto sank dpwn into a chair. j She Went out into the kitchen, called "Drink?”, and didn’t wait for his answer. She with a bottle and a glass, placed them on a small table beside Tonto’s hand. Then she sat down herself. *T had just finished cleaning and ducting. You nearly caught me.” Tonto poured a drink, eyes busy around'the room. Ruby laughed at him. "Didn’t you think I could? I’m really a homebody down under, you know.” • I “It’s surprising. Td never believed this place was here.” "How did you find it?” she asked. i "Saw the glint of your Windows through the bushes and decided to investigate.” He grinned. “Your housekeeping told your secret.” "I’ll let the windows go dirty,” she replied. "Really, it's not much of a secret. I guess everyone in Avrillo knows ofV this place If . they’d think a minute. They know , it’s here but they’ve just forgotten.” T p. ; "Nester?” Tonto said." "Small place," she nodded. . “Started forty years ago. There was some trouble with the ranchers then and the owner just walked off and left it.” "And you just moved it.” \ "Oh, no! I own it The old nester had full title but no one knew ; where he had gone. Taxes piled up against it and finally it was put up for sale. I—got it, the cabin and forty acres.’\ "Two houses," Tonto mused aloud. “A real lady.” "Thank you- I only rent the place in Avrillo "from Ad Gilpin. This is mine—very secretly mine. Not even Bart knows about it.” “Too bad I spoiled it” Ruby lowered het head. She eyed him closely as though to determine the exact angle ’of his Jaw and chin. Her lips pursed slightly and then her eyes deepened. She slowly shook her head. “No, you haven’t spoiled it. That is, if you won’t fell anyone else. Between us, you know. I ride put here a lot to get away from the Golden and the town. There are times when I think I’ll choke back there. The men are not bad, I Suppose. But a girl gets tired when every gesture and word can mean trouble unless she’s careful.” Tonto shifted uncomfortably. He had never before thought of things like that from the girl’s angle and he wondered how many he had unwittingly annoyed. Ruby I didn’t seem to notice his embarrassment. “The women of the town \ are worse. Not that they talk to me! No. that would never do. But you ’ - > . • •

Yes; just the addressees name is on this envelope, as, “MY and Mrs.' James J. Lake.” This envelope is not sealed, but is placed within the outer envelope which) is then sealed and fully addressed. \ Q. Which is considered the head of the dinner table? \ A. 'l'he head of the table is wherever the hostess sits. In other words; the wife is the head, of the table, though the man is head of the house. Q. Is it proper for a man to continue adding “Jr.” to his name afthe the death of his senior? A. No; in the same wiy, it is ■improper to continue calling a boy John Smith 3rd, fit either John Smith or John Smith, Jr., has died. \ Nevada has the fewrest licensed drivers. California has the most, while New York is second.

never feel that there’s a momen; when a pair of hidden, sneaking eyes aren’t watching you. Sometimes you fecl like you’re living ir a glass house. I have to get away or I might do some fool thing that would get me tarred and feathered.” 'i'' i Tonto ! grinned. He arose and Walked to the kitchen door, looked into the room. Vines over the window gave it a close resemblance tc her place in town. Tonto turned and went io the bedroom, looking in it. Ruby remained in her chair not even watching him. "It’s good,” Tonto said. He returned to his chair and sat down "How long have you been coming i out here?” . ' "For years; I guess. I had it al fixed up long before I got title tc it. I explored this tangle one day and found the place. I knew it had i to be mine.” i Tonto jerked his thumb toward ' the road. "Rick wah shot right out there.” She looked up swiftly and hei eyes clouded. “F know. I had the place then. But—l was in AVrilk that night. Maybe if I’d been right here,” she tapped the chair arm “it wouldn’t have happened.” “Maybe — maybe not.” Tontc started rolling a cigarct. “Evei looked over that spot of road?” “Time after time. I keep thinking of poor Rick lying there and J try to figure out how he could have been killed. I’ve tried to act it out time and again, but—” Her voice drifted off. > ' ' “I wasn’t thinking how,” Tontc said slowly., "I’m pretty sure ol that. It’s who and why. For instance, who brought Rick up thu road? The Slash S is in anothei direction. What brought Rick up here ?” I ”i»ve asked that, too,” Ruby said, “and there just i isn’t an answer.” She caught his steady look and her eyes widened. She leaned forward and made a swift, iriclusive gesture with her hand. “Yot mean—this?” ' “It’s a wander you hadn’t peer asked before.” “But it’s all— Oh, this is ridiculous! Tonto, I told you this was my hiding plaqe. Not even Bart Overby has been here. You car believe that or .not.” Tonto sank back. "I believe you I had to ask, Ruby.” .. t She made a weary; sign of acknowledgment with her hand. She plainly showed her irritation and Tonto couldn’t exactly blame her. He stretched out his long legs and relaxed, quietly smoking. He let Ruby recover from her irritation irt her own way. (To Be Continued), Jjjß
