THE tulie .that carries food * from the throat to the stomach is culled the esophagus. This passage is one of the places frequently attacked by cancer. According to statistics, about five men to everjV woman in this country have cajicer pt ,lhe esophagus. Until ne&ntly. there was no known way if lieipiig peotfle with cancer of th| but now there is/fee Mr- hone tor such , patients as anraepus have developed safe' and effective methods of handling th i\ disease. Today, thanks to modern surgery, a pers<>n with lhis\ type of cancer stands an eXt elldtat chance of cure jf treated early enough. ' ! Difficulty ’in swttffowtag is one of the early warnings of Ranter '«»: the esophagus. At first the per .on lii d.s it hard shallow li.o<is such as hard rolls, raw celery, carrots and meat. Together with this difficulty, he often has a feeling of [Tain or discomfort in the chest.

The difficulty returns: s however, and \groa s worse. -As it persist the person hot iceably loses weight Sometimes-, if the cance/is high, up in the <-ophagus, the .voir- ■ may sound hoarse, or there may 'be a bell-like cough;. This is due to pressure on th? 'nerves of Hie ' larynx, or “voice-box.” Anyone Vith persistent dilficulty in swaUowing should consult his physicipi as soon as= possible. 11 v the n r of.

cer if it is present. \’ie patient fed a liquid containing barium, u substance that blocks X-rays and makes it possible for the doctor to watch the liquid as it passes from mouth to stomach. If a growth is present ini the esophagus, the X-ray picture clearly shows > that the barium does not have free passage into the Stomach. j ; Many cancers of the esophagus are now being treated by surgery, with very good results. Operations are being performed in which the : cancerous portion of the esophagus is removed; and the stoipach brought up into the chest wh?re it*ls connected directly to the remaining portion of the Esophagus. Some surgeons are also using a new plastic tube to replace the esophagus after Cancer ofjhe<esophaguß is thus another—disease in which many who were ,formerly doomed are now being cured.| However, it is impostant for a person to consult his physician as soon as he notices any of tlie symptoms I have described — especially the early ones.

She yearns for an uncotrven-’ tionai life, a touch of gaiety, luxury, ease. Joe Mellck. U»e town’s rich show-ott bachelor. had already tried to woo Anne, but t>e la not the type easily th win a girl's trust. She has met Donald Kent, a newly appointed teacher at the Crestwood tugn school, and while tie, too. tries M court her. Anne discourages bls attentions be-: Cause she loathes bls penurious teaching profession. Kent and bis slater, Virginia Moorel and her husband. Philip, nave recently , moved next to the Manse. These gay. fun-loving Moores stand a little in awe of their churchman neighbor. CHAPTER EIGHT VIRGINIA’S deep laugh was heard again, and with it Philip’s great body shook soundlessly. Suddenly, Constance realised, the atmosphere had changed—why didn't she trust ner husband more?— while Donald, coming across the porch to join them, knew a vaulting triumph which, considering how little acquainted he was with the Atwoods, was amazing to him. But, reasonable or not, he exulted over the immediate and apparently complete conquest made by the Parson as if it were something he himself had accomplished. “What goes oa 7” he asked, pushing through the screened door. “Your friend ot the cloth,” Philip answered, “has Just proved himself human. Possessed of the same trailties as common man and—” Virginia, who had been watching Donald’s face, interrupted. “Don! You told him!* “This young man,” Barth said, before Donaid coulu answer, “came over to borrow a hammer one /lay. I took him to the kitmM?n where, occasionally, it is mislaid by my wife—you see, Mr. Moore, ye’d are not the only one who suffers in the matter of lost articles. WliiJe there, a feeling of guilt overcame me, and I took the trouble to point out to Donald the very excellent view afforded us from our windows of your lawn and your porch and your living room. As 1 recall, there was, at the time, a slight altercation going on over here, ft was clearly audible. 1 suggested that perhaps you would like to know. And he said, if 1 rememter correctly, ‘Don*t worry. They Know, all right.' Shouldn’t he hive said that?” he finished anxiously. “I do hope it was all right, ft seemed to—well, to sanction our —I don’t know whether to call it curiosity or eavesdropping." Donald's blue laughter-filled eyes met ius sister’s. “ 'Fess up, GinnyThpj<fi£Y«u Now It’s your turiL" /“I’m embarrassed,” she said frankly. “Bubvgripping my courwith both hfcids, as the saying goes—here's the truth. We meant to shock you. We hoped to shock you” “But why?” Constance exclaimed. ■ - “Because they didn’t want us to come over, of course," Barth answered quickly, with a quizzical quirk of one eyebrow in Virginia’s direction. “Am I right? Wasn’t that it?”

Virginia had the grace to color. “But now ipt me explain," she begged. “It was because we wanted you to understand at once that we are not church people. We never go. Never at all. And we don’t expect to begin.” She paused a moment; then, with a directness both Constance and Barth respected, she added, “Perhaps I should say we very definitely don’t want to begin. Now have I shocked you. Dr. Atwood?” "Not at ail,” came his equable reply. “There are< many people like you. No better And no worse than the rest of us." He stopped, as a squirrel hopped toward ms foojt. "I declare, this looks like my pet calling on You, t 00... But getting back to what we were saying,” he on, serious for the first time since his arrival, “I don’t go around trying to sell religion. The church is here, 1 mil here, for anyone who wants us.” His warm sweet 'smile lightened his face as he glanced around at ail of them and concluded, "I think we can be very good neighbors, whether you go to my church or to SRy church, for that matter,, or Mfhether you don’t. That was niy sole idea in calling, f might add—to establish neighborly contact. To let you know that, as human being’s, we are friendly.” Then he. made turn to lightness again. / “I only hope you won’t coinplain of us as the last people did who lived here—l’m going to tell this. Constafice. They’re gone and no harm can be done—they didn’t like jit because I did not kqep the bank clipped above our driveway, ft's our bank, I admit. Yoyr line starts at the top where you see the. apple trees from which we' steal” But she point is, the bank grows wild flo.vera. i Daisies and goldenrod And lupine. And I hated to have them mowed down, chiefly because the grass will never be good there without a lot of care and expense, neither bt which I can afford to give. Now I’m wondering if ypu are going to complain about that bank. It’s good to get these little matters between us clear at the start, I think, don’t you? So suppose you tell me just exactly what your attitude Is going to be?’i The bold demanding thrust of his question, to which there could, of course, 6e but one, answer, delighted VirginiA Everything about him delighted her. what delicate frankness he had shown, she thought. And liberality. r ? It was at Uus moment that Anne, wearing a faded blue denim smock over matching blue slacks which she had rolled to her knees, and with a trowel, in her .hand, rounded the corner of the Manse veranda in a dash to the front door. At sight of her parents she stopped short“So there’s where you are!” she cried. “Don’t you people know it’s past one o’clock ? And L for one, am starving.” Virginia called back. "Don’t try

We're having a wonderful time.” Anne hesitated, and for a second her fragile slenderness, together With ner uncertainty, made her Seem, Constance thought, vaguely lost ana terribly/ vulnerable. But the next moment ner buoyant voice belied the notion. “If you don’t mind how 1 look? Because | would like to say. ‘Howdy I' ’’ And, still holding her trowel, she\came running, with her lovely fluid grace, over to them. The next hour became a memory Constance long enjoyed, Lt was the starting point of a relationship between the two houses that enmeshed them all and that, in time, drew In not only the Parson’s church but the whole town. "Now," said Virginia, when Anne had settled herself on a cushion on the ground with her back against a tree. “Now, TH call Mary ahd we’ll see about lunch.” s “Oh, no!” Constance protested quickly. “We < mustn’t. Really! That's too much.” “Nonsense." Virginia lifted her great warm voice and summoned an invisible Mary. ’*We’U simply have a picnic, ft’s our usual routine on days like this and it'll be very easy. Mary”—she turned toward the woman who had emerged from the kitchen—“these are our neighbors. Dr. and Mrs. Atwpod, ana Miss Anne Atwood. Dr. Atwood is/the minister of the little church across the. street.” /Mary, murmuring, “Yes’m,” and, "How do, sub ... Miz Atwood... Miss Atwood...” respectfully bobbed a grizzled head while the broad calm of her brown face registered whole-souled approval. Her pimple figure in her crisp and correct blue uniform, white apron, and white cap was something of a surprise to Constance, and sensing this, Virginia quickly explained. ' “Mary Is an inheritance. She came to us with Donald and has been with us ever since. But she was born in the south and lived there until she was twenty—is that right, Mary?—and none of our haphazard ways have changed her.” Her earrings swayed as she looked up at her, faithful servant and friend with real affection in her glance. ’ *T wish I had a Mary!” Constance exclaimed- ) “Mary has a son' in the United states Army. A Captain,” Virginia went on. “Captain Sam Mapes.” i i ' ■ “Is that fib?” Barth’s face pxhis genuine interest and pleasure in this statement. “That’s something tp be proud of.” “Yes, sub. I is proud.” . “Well, now attout lunch, Mary—" Q “Chicken sandwiches and green salad, allawaitin’ Ma’am.” Virginia hesitated, looked toward the Parson. “Ginger ale ?” “Ginger ale is very popular with UA’’ he said. ___ : (Ta Be Continued; «■" — — -- '

Constance looked & them' with appreciation. Italian pottery plates of yellow with a green design held the salad and thin triangular sandwiches. Ice tinkled in cool-looking green Mexican glasses. There was yellow napery and not buttered rolls m a carved wooden basket. tThe conversation moved along easily. Barth told ot his travels, of once journeying to far-off Egypt for the mi:re sum of two hundred dollars! Virginia's rpeiTy eyes met those of Constance* whose heart danced, and for the first time tn all of her long years as a minister’s wife she thought, 1 could be friends with this woman, i Wouldn’t feel constrained.

Astounding! Yet, we have just begun to scratch the surface of what we may know and dp." “I shall hate it,” Virginia said flatly. “A world run by science! I hope I die before then.” “The mind must be conditioned, the spirit must be cultivated to mSet such an nge.” He turned toward Donald. “That’s where you come in, young man.

“You don’t approve of teachers, { take it?” •'Oh, approve! That’s a silly question. Os course | Wp have to have them. But there are so many ’ other things a man might do.” She gestured toward her hosts. “Writi Ing. painting, any of the arts. Or there are plenty of interesting business openings, I should think.” For a moment Donald was silent. Then, briefly, “I happen to like teaching. The idea of it. That's all.” And he deliberately turned away from her. Virginia, her shrewd eyes observing them both, said to herself, “So. He’s not interested^ in her? He’s up to pis eyes, poor dear.” There were observers of that lawn party, although none present was aware of it. The Peebles lived on a rising slope of land in the house behind the Moores., They had lived there ever since Crestwood was a country hamlet. Their home, of fussy gingerbread architecture, was dreary and out-moded. There had been two sons. One had been killed at Chateau-Thierry in 1918. The other, Ned, arriving unwanted ten or twelve years after his brother, had escaped the Second Wor|4 War by becoming a mathematics teachet in the Crestwood High School.' He did not enjoy teaching, nor did bis pupils —or, indeed,, anyone else —enjoy him. He moved through the halls at a quick trdK bis narrow shoulders bent, bls head down, speaking to np one. growled at the stupid students and gave no word of praise to the bright ones. “Old sSGrouch” was his nickname, and it had stuck all the years he had been there. But he had tenure. And he did get algebra through the heads of many of the young people. ’. a He and his mother and father went regularly U> the Little Stone Church every Bunday. Ed Peebles was an Elder; m fact, he was the eldest Elder.. He was also a Trustee. Ned Was : a Deacon as well as a Sunday School teacher and handled his class of boys with the same grimness tipit he employed throughout the week. Minnie, his mother, was president of the Ladies' Aid. , Ed, now retired from the New York bank where he had been a clerk from the time he waj Sixteen, basked in a smug coitcntment with himself and his life. But he was not happy. He had never been happy. None of them was, although it is doubtful if they were awares of it. *sVhat would they have talked about if something had not been wrong somewhere? That was their joy. Tljeir three faces bad grown, through the passage of time, to look alike.

Minnie and Ned'joined him. “Isn't that Anne Atwood?” Minnie demanded at once. “It is.” ! “So she is home. Why wasn't she at church this morning, then?” “Yes. Why wasn’t she?” “Sunday! And look at the way she’s dressed." < i “Look at the way those others are!-, dressed, too. Thpse new people.” ' 1 I There was a silence as they peered. , J ° , “What are their names—those new folks? 1 Do you know," Ned?” Ned shifted a toothpick from one side of his mouth other. His voice held a rasp. “Sure, I know. I ought to.” . - “What do you mean?" Ned pointed toward the group. "See that young fellow? Take a good look at him because”—his outstretched hand shook with his sudden anger — “he’s just tteen taken on as a new teacher here. Starts next fall. No experience. Not a bit. But he’s to get a- bigger j salary than I am. Burns me up, burns me up!”. > r ' ■ “Ned!” Minnie was.shrill in’her i indignation. “How do they figure that? You’ve been there — how, long now?” / “Going on ten years. But that has nothing to do with it.” “Well, it ought to! Why hasn’t it, anyway! Why! That’s the limit! Ed, do you hear what Ned’s telling us? He’s .being cheated!: By his own town.” Ed said, with a slow, threaten- i ing relish, “This’ll .bear looking| into. . How does it happen, anyway, Ned ? How can 'the school do such a thing as that?” Ned explained. After the war a wage schedule had been; adopted With a minimum of twenty-two hundred dollars and a raise of one* hundred dollars each year. He had been jumped immediately to the minimum and was now receiving twenty-tfour hundred for his annual ten mohths of work.; Until a few weeks ago he hadf been as pleased as his nature perU nutted him to be. L ik Now he said, “But this young squirt comes in here, brand new| and what’s he getting?’ Twenty 4 Six hundred. That’s what.” Ed’s eyes behind his glasses tool: a glitter. "They can’t do thi : to you. I'll see Carl Strong abou , it tomorrow.” "Carl Strong is helpless. He ma: be Superintendent, but he’s help less.” - m w “Why is-he helpless ?
