Hirry Dexter White never got to read his own headlines. f Just when everybody begins to enjoy this perfect brand of Indian summer, the dire prediction is made that a cold wave is headed this Way. ' K 4 ■ o_—o— The woods and fields are so dry that opening of the hunting sea- | V ■' , \ __ son .in Ohio has been postponed ohe week. It is just as dry in Indians, so don’t be careless with matches and lighted cigarettes' while treking through tinder-dry fields on this side of the state line. _ —o— President Eisenhower made an official visit to Canada and addressed the Canadian parliament, taking a serious slant on Russian propaganda and espionage tactics. As have all former Presidents of the United States, Mr. Eisenhower reminded Canadians of the mutual friendship that exists between the two Countries and that both must work together in cleaning out Red spies. Official receptions were heki by the Canadian Governor General and the American Embassy in the neighborly gesture of meeting . Li ecutives on both sides of the bordejr. The exchange of com- ' metre© between the two countries also tyrings understanding and coi operation between the governments. —0 Charles Heare of Ohio City, Ohio, was superintendent of the Citizens Telephone Company for a quarter of a century and gav© faithful service to management: and telephone patrons. He kept the system operating during the war ypars, despite war-time handicaps and labor shortages. A newspaper office depends much on its telephone lines and it was our experience that Charlie Heare never was too busy to correct equipment when something went haywire and adjustments were necessary. He was devoted to his jpb and had the reputation of bging a first-rate, high-grade utility

Treating a Facial Paralysis

By HERMAN N. BUNDESEN, M.D, SEVERE cases ot facial paral- | ysis may bring a host of specialinto action for possible cure or rehabilitation. Neurologists, psychiatrists, surgeons and doctors of the ear, nose and throat all have a task when this disease is severe. , The exact cause for facial paralysis is unknown in many cases, but the most common cause js a condition known as-Bell’s Palsy. J * Varying Causes Some people may be born With a fbrm of facial paralysis other than Bell’s Palsy. Another cause for such a condition might be a stroke; facial paralysis is a fre- \ quent complication following surr gery on the glands that give off > the saliva to the mouth. Now and l then, these glands become cancerous, or enlarged, and must be removed. In order to remove k them, damage may be done to the facial nerve causing permanent paralysis of the muscles on one side of the face. Disfiguring Effects > Paralysis of the facial muscles oh one side can give a very disifiguring appearance. There is a sagging of the mouth and of the , cheek. The lower lip also sags, and the person complains gpf saliva dribbling from his mouth as well as difficulty in chewing. He ihas a depressed expression; : one of the eyelids may also ap- i pear drooped. The condition will i usually disappear after a few ]

superintendent. His death brings sorrow to his friends in this city. 0 0 Prime Minister Churchill again l expresses hope) that talks can be held with Russian Boss Malenkov, the United States, Britain ’ and france. The trouble is Russia doesn’t want to talk “turkey” in any plan for world peace and understanding. President Eisenhower should not go to Moscow or any other Red controlled city or country, regardless of the prospects of reaching an agreement with the Red leaders. If such a conference is held it should take place in a neutral section of the world and according to our way of thinking, the Soviets and all other nations would be \given the best treatment and consideration if they met in the baited States. Malenkov might like this country so well he would not want to return to Russia. 0 0 Conquest Os Polio:— Dr. Wendell Stanley of the University of California told the National Academy of Science that he is confident that vaccine for polio will be developed within the next five to ten years which will be “fully adequate.” He bases liis opinion on the fact that new’ research has made possible the first definite identification of the polio virus. . Before any effective preventive medicine can be prepared for any disease the cause of the disease must be identified. If the cause has been found for polio the possibility of an adequate vaccine may be as near as Dr. Stanley believes. This does not mean that the danger of polio will abate in the immediate future. Hopes are that polio will be brought under control as so many other diseases have been. When that time comes all Americans can feel a sense of pride, for the contributions they made to pay for treatment for victims and for research projects. Their contributions may pay big dividends.

months or years, though some cases persist. ,-\ \ Besides the defect In appearance, the person afflicted with Bell’s Palsy has trouble speaking. He talks from one side of his mouth with one lip greatly raised. Muscle Stimulation i In cases of paralysis of the face that are not on a permanent basis, guch as Bell’s Palsy, the doctor does not permit the muscles to become atrophied or deteriorate. An electric current is applied at frequent intervals by the doctor so that they remain stimulated and retain their normal vitality until the nerve supply Is regained. In persistent cases, an operation may be performed to rejoin the nerve supply to the muscles of the face and again permit proper function. At the present time* plastic surgery is being used in certain disfiguring cases of face paralysis. The muscles of the jaw and eye are both transplanted in such away as to correct the defect that is present Although this Is not an absolute cure, the appearance is much Improved and the individual can talk normally. QUESTION AND ANSWER P. M. F.: How does a person get tuberculosis? Answer: Tuberculosis is a contagious disease, and is transmitted from one person to another by coughing, or coming Ip contact with an infected person’s Phlegm. ..

CHAPTER THIRTY TWO FIRST Linda pretended that Phil was just trying to frighten her. Then she pretended an attitude of broad generosity so far aa any man’s love was concerned, and said, “Os course, Phil, love is something very sacred and if there, is someone you think you could love more —” » Her eyes had become quite convincingly misty and melting by that time. She had said that if there really was someone else she would like to know who the girl was. “What does it matter, Linda? She’s someone you hardly know.” “Is she a girl from this city, Phil ?” “Yes.- • “Is she beautiful?" “Yes." “Blonde or brunette?” \ “Neither.” . - - ( “Not a redheaded girl?” “Yes, Linda, a redheaded girt" Linda knew then. Nancy Kelly. The nobody from Cass Street. Just because she happened to nave eyes like violets and a nead ot coppery hair, Nancy nad beaten the competition ot Linda, ot a hundred society buds, debutantes, girls wno had been debutantes naif a dozen years ago and still were desperately trying to act like debutantes, ot live, starved matrons, gaudy dowagers, widows. Linda listened to Phil’s confession and she put on an act as she nad never put oh an act before, though ner repertoire of acts was large. < bhe acted the noble girl. ' She said that Nancy Kelly was lovely. Phil hadn't told her it was Nancy Kelly, and she watched Phil closely when she mentioned Nancy's name. He made no sign. ■Linda said that stab really knew Nancy Kelly so slightly. Then she tugged at a bit of scarjet handkerchief and became appealingly pensive. Appealingly pensive when her whole being was surging with venomous feeling tor the redheaded nobody from Cass Street. Appealingly pensive when that minute she knew she was going to use every trick she knew to thwart Nancy Kelly before she got Phil Stanley. Appealingly pensive when she was thinking that Phil wasn't going to get away with nearly a year ot her companionship without his asking her to marry him, champagne or no champagne. Nancy Kelly of \ all people. It was so funny as to be ridiculous. Linda managed to look appealingly, innocently pensive, and she had never been so on. her mettle in her life. Phil had stood up. “And so, Linda, that’s how it S You’re a marvelous good sport be so understanding about it. I never thought one woman could take such a grand attitude toward another, well, you know, in circumstances like this.” Linda’s eyes were quite misty now. She looked straight into Phil's eyes with a gaze so candid that it would have been a particular treat for Lil Langdon—Lil had seen it so many times before—and said: “Phil, you are Just a great, big boy. 1 wish you and Miss Kelly every happiness. You know I do.” Linda was standing within inches of Phil now. Her face was

raised to bis. Her eyes were saying, “Kiss me, PhiL It will be the last time.” His lips touched hers lightly. She closed her eyes, sighed lightly, as though this last kiss were to be a sacred memory. Something like an old love letter to oe locked away in memory forever. A touch of the lips that meant supreme sacrifice on her part. Just « brush ot the lipa that meant ; sweet understanding. Phil evidently was so moved by this sweet understanding that he almost left without asking tor return of the ring. “1 suppose, Linda, I had better take back the ring. Funny thing, it hadn’t been oil my little finger lor years. Always had a kind of superstition about taking it off." “Now, Phil, you wouldn’t take Chat last little old memory of our —well, 1 suppose it's just friendship now—away from me, would you, Phu. Heartless old thing.” .Lindas aura at the moment was lavender mist and the taunting, fading fragrance of apple blossoms drifting away on the wind. “It’s an heirloom, Linda. 1 treasure it very much.” “Let me keep it awhile, Phil. Os course I shan't wear it. If 1 gave it to you now it would all seem so abrupt, as though you were just being' torn out of my hie, and—” Linda turned from Phil and buried what she could of her face in the little squarq of scarlet handkerchief. * 11 it wasn’t wet with tears she was giving a convincing imitation of tears. She kept the handkerchief to her eyes with one hand and reached back of her toward Phil with the other. “Perhaps you had better go, PhiL” PhiJ clasped her hand. He didn’t say good-bye. v As soon as the door closed behind mm Linda whirled around. She threw ner bands in the ajr with a gesture of . decision. “What an act. If Lil Langdon had only seen it. Lil would have adored it.” • • • That hour of quiet after the drapes were drawn across the windows of Nancy Kelly, Inc., when Moira and Mrs. Eustis and everyone else bad said their last good night, now was the most precious hour ot the day tor Nancy. She could think things out then, all by herself. Just sit on the chintz couch and close her eyes and think of the events that within less than a yetr had swept her from the monotonous routine of a job in a law office, which she had hated, to this— She liked to review, over and over, how the pattern of one’s life may be suddenly and dramatically changed all because of some little happening. Some little, accidental event—a decision to turn one corner instead of the other, a chance remark, a chance meeting. Now she was engaged to be married to Phil Stanley, a man whom most people regarded as far out of her class, a very rich man whose dash and energy and laughing eyes, whose lack of fear of anything had carried her beyond dreams. She sat op the chintz couch now, thinking, telling herself that this

was no dream, that this shop, Phil's passionate declaration of his love for her, must not turn out to be a mere dream. Dreams nad away of ending, fading out, becoming confused and broken, just when they were loveliest. This wasn’t a dream. There was something thrillingly real that nad come to her all because one Saturday afternoon in the law office ot Spencer and Charles, when she nad been impatient and tired she had talked to herself out loud. She bad said, “If I only had a million,” not dreaming that anyone would bear her, and someone nad heard her. | Phil Stanley had heard her. That remark had led to his impulsive request that she lunch with nim at the University Club. That remark had been the loosening ot a pebble in the affairs ot her lite, and the pebble had started an avalanche ot action on her part that had carried her and her family mto a kind of life they had never known bet ore. Cass street and the house with the furnace with its yawning moutn that ate up coal and gave so little best, that torture ot having to ask the landlord to wait for his rent just another week, the worry of having her brother Tom going from job to job, any kind ot a job, when he ought to be in school were fast becoming at memoiy now. All because one day she had talked to nerseli out loud when she thought no one was listening. •» The Kellys lived .on a different street now and m an apartment Whose conveniences were both the joy and despair of Mother Kelly. ■ Gadgets, she called them. She said what was the world coming to when all a woman had to do was press buttons and ironing boards and what not came popping out of the wall at you. She said they just made for that's what they did, and it was no wonder women nowadays went gadding around wasting time. £ She spattered about them and locked, and rocked and sputtered, but she loved her new life, and Nancy knew that she did. She had a lovely rocking chair now, with not a squeak in it Even Timothy Kelly, expanding with pride in his new surroundings, had gotten himself a job in politics that he loved. It wasn t much of a job, Nancy knew. It was down at the Democratic headquarters. It filled her father with immense importance. ■ was a personality now. To hear him talk one would think that he was the confident of the governor and the chief adviser to the mayor and the board of aidermen. ' Tom was back in school again. Under Nancy’s tactful'encouragement she had gotten him to enroll for the second eemester at the School Os Engineering. All this happened, Nancy was thinking pow, because one day in a moment of rebellion she happened to talk out loud to herself, because qne other day in a moment of pride cut by the remark of Linda Van VUet—“you ARE a working girl, aren’t you,"l— she had taken up Phil Stanley’s dare to venture into the business of a dress shop.

Library loirs By Ths Librarian -L - H.l. . “Does your child read the right books ?*’ Thia Is a good week to find out all about the subject national book week, Noy. 15-21. Joining the thousands of libraries across the nation is the Decatur public library. This week and through Thanksgiving, Miss Bertha Heller, librarian, has arranged a display of 5 fit) books of all kinds for children. ‘"Well written children’s books improve the morals of children,” said Miss Heller, “as well as help make them better citizens.” Miss Heller pointed with pride to a girl who used to live in Decatur years ago, now is associate professor emeritus pf Western Reserve .tlniversity and author of three anthologies for parents or teachers and Writer ot “Children and Books.” Her name is May Hill Arbuthnot, and in an article for the Chicago Tribune book section last week she bad this to say: ”... While there is a multiplicity of good books on the market each -year— Boo to 1,000 new titles annually — there is at the same time much second rate or trashy material available.” Mrs. Arbuthnot suggests parents choose a balanced combination of reading for the child. "Select a good collection of fairy tales, some historical fiction and biography, good reference books and poems of two or three poefcs of childhood such as Robert Louis Stevfenson. A. A. Milne or Harry Behn. Exposed to such a sampling of different types of books the clyild learns something about the richness and variety of reading. But be sure to give the child considerable latitude in choosing books for his particualr interest at a particular time.” According to Miss Heller, the local library can now show books exactly like those Mrs. Arbuthnot is speaking of. The variety came from the Imperial Book Co., of Philadelphia, and virtually every. ty C e of-story line written for children--cowboy, spaceship, th© olden times, fairy tales, animal stories, and many, many more. Miss Heller invites young and old to visit the display of charming literature. For the older, folks Miss Heller, with great pride, offers, the “Columbia Historical Portrait of New York,” a collection of jjuts and photographs of New York -CUy and its environs done in classic style.
