It isn’t so much ot * challenge to raise, 33.815.35 for the Community Fund a* it is to do the job this week. Let s do it. .. -o ..... . Clean alleys, clegs streets, no unsightly vacaat hots make an inviting city in which to live. Let s gel rid ot the dirt and debris this week in the Fail Clean Vp campaign. . .. . oa .■ : Z\ . . -J*.'’'A Gallup poll imparts the Information that people are woefully ignorant of where their tai money goes. With us, the punsie is the rapid disappearance ot our week lypaycheck. - ' —o o 1 A Russellville farmer stepped up info the financial class last Saturday when he sold 304 Hereford steers for f 97.070.53. The farmer operates 1,300 acres of land in Patman county and can consider himself in big business. —o —o— — 4 The state of Illinois has made a new approach in dealing with men released from prison. Those who have Served their time receive >SO "gate pay,” instead of 310 the legislature having approved the increased stipend for those who must resume life on the outside of prison walls. Prison authorities believe that fewer prisoners will come back, for reay son that they will be able to get' along a little longer on the higher discharge pay. It sounds reason- ■■ able and we hope it works. - —o oThe Community Fund is operated on a county basis In Weils county, including Bluffton. The budget over there is 315,000, embracing 1 ten participating agencies. All national drives, eicept z .that of the Red Cross are includL't ‘ \ed in the Wells county brganiza- ’ lion, the largest appropriation ber ing >6,000 for the Crippled Chik ’dren Society. The latter brganizal tion conducts' its appeal j each ’ spring through the sale of Easter •*i stamps and possibly the amount .received from this source will be Credited to the budget. The Wells county Community Chest has fewer local agencies than the Decatur Community Fund. - - ■ Operations To Relieve Pi SEVERE and unremitting pain is the lot of many .who suffer from incurable diseases. -This is a , distressing situation which physicians have sometimes gone to great lengths to relieve. All too often,, their efforts have been ■ in' vain or have succeeded only for relatively short periods of time. Greatest reliance has been on certain narcotit drugs, but. this has two drawbacks “ ever-in-creasing doses are required to combat the pain and, consequently. there is great danger of drug addiction. More recently, surgeons, who specialize in operations oti the brain and nervous tissues, have tried to find ways ot “cutting o , away unbearable paim The one most commonly used consists in opening the skull and cuttiulg certain nerve tracts. Many Jtimes, however, there may be meiital deterioration following such an operation, but, in certain cases of confirmed morphine addicts and, in patients having severe, inoperable. painful cancer, its use may be justified. There ■ may be much apathy, / untidiness and unpredictable beitavfor in l thpse having t-he operation. Also, attacks Snay occur./ > - -' - A newer and less severe operation, known as cordotomy, is one in which the neurosurgeon severs 1 a part of the spinal cord which conducts the pain sensation to the brain. * This 19 f yery difficult and delicate, since the .pathway is very minute in size. Any slip may cause permanent paralysis of different parts of the body, it is carried out only after a careful study by the physician. i> It is usually performed high ia
The city election campaigns how go into the final stretch. The The election will be four weeks from Tuesday and voters in Decatur. Monroe, Berne and Geneva, will go to the polls to name their city and town public officials. The Decatur and Berne tickets are headed by candidates for mayor, while those la Geneva apd Monroe have clerk-treasurers and town trustees. Vote your ticket, fpr that is your American privilege. _ o— More baseball today. The country likes the annua! world series, but we wonder If the diamond classic isn’t carried out too long. Aside from the financial side, why not cut the series to five games, instead of the present seven maximam? In the speed up of things, the world champions then could .be crowned after winding three games. Ford Frick, the new commissioner of baseball might suggest the revised plan to the club owners and negotiate lan agreement With the players. » ..’ - O-— --O---4 '■ ”1' s i . ' I~ l.i ' ; j. ■ f 4' The American Way:— The Italian village pf Isnello paid its highest honors; to Mayor Vincent Impellittdri of New York City and it is likely tha{ few of the public ovations he has ever received have touched the mayor so deeply. In Isnello, whose population of 4,200 people make their living farming and tending goats, the New York Mayor A was born. Mayor Inipellitteri’s yisit to his native town will undoubtedly create much goodwill for America among the Italian people. It Will be hard for the Communists to ' make t heip believe false tales of how American labor is exploited when they remember the visit of , Jmpeilkteri whose father once men 4d shoes in their village. They can feel a certain pride in the knowledge that one of their number went to Arherlca and rose to the position of. mayor of the world’s largest city. America has always symbolized a land of opportunity tor the people of Europe- They have x come to our shores with courage and industry and have earned a' solid and respected place for themselves in American life. □in the chest and is Unquestionably the best way to relieve pain in the abdomen and legs. , I However, it should pot be used if the patient is a narcotic addict, i It has been found that after this operation, many people are able to return to their occupations and carry on, free of pain. It would stem • thalt in certain cases where the relief qf pain due to’lncurable illnesses Us necessary, Cordotomy would be the operation of choice. I I QUESTIONS Ano answers C. R.: I have been, confined to bed for three months with rheumatic fever. The first six weeks were spent in the hospital. Can you telll me a Jittlu about this ailment? Answer: Rheumatic fever is a general infection in which the pa-, tient usually has fever, with pain, swelling, and tenderness of various joints. In rhenimntic fever, the heart may be affected; therefore, it is important that a patient with this condition jbe kept' at complete . \ bed; rest., The germ which causes this condition ‘ has not as yet been discovered, but is thought to be a type of streptococcus. In some cases 4he infec : tion seems to start in the topsils; removal of the i tonsils in these cases may be helpful. j Salicylates usually reduce the pain tn the joints and the fever in a remarkable way. A patient with this condition should bd under the observation of a so {hat he can determine just l when the patient should be allowed to be up and about. j J \ Cortisone and ACTH iave been found effective in s the treatment of many cases.

CHATTER THIRTY-TWO THE HOUSE was quiet when Harrison got home after the funeral. Anne put down a book and smiled at him. She smiled more easily lately. “You took dead,” she remarked. “Oh, yes, the funeral. Was It awful?" “The usual eulogies—too long. I felt sorry for Ellen; she looked pretty bad.” “Was Ricco there, Dad? You know the one she...” ; “Ricco?” “You know—All-American, slim and dark and not very tall.’” He remembered then the young man who had crossed himself. He had not seen him plainly; the rainbow light from the windows had been all over him. “I guess so,” he answered. **X saw somebody...” He did not go to see Mac Fowler. He never knew that Wilky herself went, boldly risking the good will and confidence of her employer In' a desperate attempt to save him from the Igleharts. He never knew that Wilky went on this reckless mission because she never told—not its real purpose. She never told because, when she arrived at the Fowler house about nine o’clock that night, Ellen Fowler had been found dead across her bed. An empty bottle of sleeping pills lay on the floor. Harrison stood straight and his face was flinty. “I won’t do it, Joan,” he said firmly. “I won’t sign myself out of control qf Blayde Lumber. I’ll go through bankruptcy court first?” Joan swung her small feet and was entirely oblivious of the furious glares Wilky filing over shoulder at intervals. Ramsay was not there. More and more through this taut week Harrison had found himself hating Ramsay Iglehart, his smugness, his arrogance, his air of invulnerable superiority. "This is my affair, Joan had announced. “I told Ramsay t wanted to close it up myself. He can take care of your legal problems, once you’ve got the money—but you have to get the money from me.” She said now, “My father was a shrewd businessman, Harrison. He trained the up the hard way. ’Sufficient collateral* was his motto. Give your money away if you must, but never lend it without sufficient collateral.” *T meant what I said, Joan,” Harrison insisted. “I won’t sell out enough stock or hypothecate It to jeopardize control of the business. The inventory and the appraisal do not warrant a move like that” “Your inventory is more or less static, as you admit yourself. As for the appraisal, I had one made myself, you know, by very competent people. It doesn’t agree with yours at all. Such a lot of your machinery is practically ob-

solete, an your trucks are old i models, and certainly this office can’t be called modern!” I "Antique,” snorted Wilky, “be- ! ginning with me!” “Oh, you’re terribly \ capable, Miss Wilkerson,” protested Joan blithely. “I shan’t insist on any : changes in personnel. I leave all I that to Harrison. All I’m asking for is six thousand dollars more collateral. Good collateral, \of course. Do you haVe anything at all, Harrison, that is negotiable, that a sound bank would accept?” "i won’t touch my insurance, If that’s what you’re getting at,” he said stiffly, “and what, bonds I’ve accumulated are for the kids. They’re not going to be left unprotected if anything happens to me,' nor Eden either.” “Oh, yes, Eden . . , she hasn’t come .back yet, has she? Nor f Laura either. It Is sort of odd, ■ both of them deserting you at the same time. It’s a month now, isn’t it?”- I- V “Leave Eden out of this,” M s said harshy. “This is business. If you aren’t satisfied to lend me the , money against forty-eight per cent ■ of the business, we seem to be at’ : a standstill, more or less.” I “I want to lend you the money! But not at a risk, Harrison. I 1 simply never take risks. That’s why I can make this loan —because I’ve always flatly refused i to take a risk. And I always fair > sist on a profit. Os course you’re . guaranteeing me five per cent* • You have to stand behind that i guarantee, and you’re aware of that.” I “You can’t lend me money, Joan, at. the cost of my self-respect,* • Harrison said, anger bulging the • muscles and veins of his face. "I i know how it would be — you I wouldn’t mean to meddle but you • couldn’t keep away. You wouldn’t i mean to talk but you couldn’t keep quiet. I’d be a kept man. It won’t 1 work. You and Ramsay will have I to think of something else, or i those fellows in South Carolina can go ahead to bust me. I’d • rather be out of business.” | . ’ Joan laughed indulgently. "Hir- ’ risen, don’t be such a dramatie > fooL I’m not going to order you ■ around. I’m too lazy. All I Vant for my money is five per cent. ’ I’ve said that times enough. I’m I trying to help out. If you Won’t let go enough stock to cover me, ’ how about your house?” ’ I “My house?” he rasped. “Good • Lord, do you want me to put my • family out in the street?” ; “Oh, for Pete’s sake, get off that > soapbox! I suppose the house is mortgaged to the last shingle?" - I “I’m not giving up my house. I 5 gave up Garden Hill and broke my j wife’s heart.” “I'd rent it back to you till you s were able to build another, is t your equity in it worth six thou- . sand dollars?”
m» «**•:» Telia Os Examination* 'in a recent letter to hie parents, Mr. and Mrs. Harold McDonald, of 4J.5 North Ninth street, Jack McDonald, who is stationed at the San Diego, cal., barracks, described tecent general classification examinations undertaken by dlls company, which he said was “all-Indiana” with 80 meinJifers. He reported that his copiI pnny is in competition With allTexas and all-Oklahoma companies. Enlisting in the Navy last August, McDonald said the examinations would determine future assignments; He is stationed there With Bob Huser, «on of Mr. and Mrs. Martin Huser, of Monroe woh enlisted at the same time. October, \ eighth month in the old Latin calendar, derives its name from the Latin word octo, meaning eight. 1
“It’s .worth twice that," ha answered, wondering 1 why he was so weak as to pursue the subject at all. “I could trade you something cheaper,” Joan Suggested eagerly. •*I own a lot of property. I could swap you something on a good lot, which you could tear down and replace later when your circumstances improve. You’d keep control of this business, and if I got nosy you could let Miss Wilkerson give me the boot, Harrison." Joan grinned her mulish, gargoyle grin. “The houses down in that section remodel into good rental stuff — small apartments. I’ve picked up one or two from the Building and Loan, repossessed stuff.” -r> I . Spider! Wilky kept thinking. Aloud she said, "Harrison, don’t even consider anything so utterly ridiculous. The roof over your children’s heads'” "Bankruptcy,” mused Joan looking at the wall, “is such an awful word, and such a chore to live down. It might work, Harrison.” She got to her feet. “Think it over carefully. Well tallj again ( tomorrow. I could trade you a farm, by the way. I could trade you the Hammond place, out on the Lytleton Road. Forty acres ...a six-room house...” *TII think It over, Join.” He hardly saw her go, picking her way out of the yard on her perilously high heels, tie was thiriking suddenly, and for no reason at all, of Mary Gallagher. Why, tn heaven’s name, was he thinking of Mary Gallagher now? Os those laboriously piled rocks and bricks terracing green rows ot tomatoes, of a big-eyed calf pushing a wet nose through a fence, of the words he had said to Anne, “That’s security—primitive, independent.” Wilky roused him abruptly. “A ghoul,” she snorted, “picking your bones!' Take a stand and hold* it, Harrison. She wants that five per cent” \ “I don’t know what I can do, Wilky.” There was heaviness in his voice, in the slump of his shoulders. Tm dragging bottom. I think Til go home and make a riot of strong coffee. The stuff that woman brews Is colored water. I thought I’d! get Anfte out for a little, to see the Christmas decorations and Stuff. She can move around pretty wsll on her Crutches now, but she hasn’t been out of the house since the accident.” i “A forty-acre farm,” remarked Wilky scornfully, “on the Lytleton Road, where there’s no development, no chance for the land to be valuable.” - - “Not very far out. City mains go out that way as far as the grade School. Quiet out that way.” “You don’t mean you’re thinking about it? Not seriously?”
