PENICILLIN has become as popular as aspirin for the average man. The only digereiice is that he can take the aspirin by himself, but he must still go to his physician for a treatment With penicillin. ' ” It Is most often in regard to the common cold that he asks tor penicillin. The physician will usually advise the patient that penicillin Is not the proper treatment tor colds without complications, and the intelligent rnua. will heed his doctor’s advice. However, many patients adopt an antagonistic attitude and say ttrey will fto where they can obtain the penicillin. Many non-medlcal people feel ‘ 1 that penicillin or hormones are better given by injection because these products are more easily available to the body in this form. However, many of these drugs can be taken by mouth. If patients could observe some of the severe reactions to injections that even require hospitalisation, they would be less persistent in urging a physician to give them these injections. One single Injection of penicillin in an * allergic person may result in hospitalisation for weeks. The reaction may be in the form of skin eruptions, fever, and a type of arthntlc-llke palm ■„ ■ „ J

Hormone by Injection is often insisted upon by certain women. Many think that hormones ace necessary while going through the menopause, dr change of life, and literally force their physicians into giving them these drugs by injection. Such treatment is not needed by all women, and those who do need it, can often take It just as well by mouth. Just as some drugs are better given by mouth, other drugs are better received by injection. One of these is the mercury that is given to help a person with kidney or heart disease to rid his body of dropsy or water that may have accumulated tn the tissues. Most drugs, if they can be given successfully by mouth, will involve less risk to the person taking them. Above all, a patient should fqllow his doctor’s instructions on the necessary and proper method df treatment QUESTION AND ANSWER L.

It will not be eas, to 11 r e graciously on Todd a meager school-teacher salary, nor to share the nianse in flew Jersey, with bis frail father, the minister, and his gentle though possessive mother.

Betty, who <s already happily married and the mother Os a lovely little girl. They decide upon a formal church wedding, with Todd s father officiating. There will be a reception and simple buffet tea later at the Foster home. CHAPTER NINE "WHAT TIME is thig wedding going to be, Anyway?" Betty asked loan. “F ou r o’clock, Betts. Four o’clock, Saturday afternoon, June the twentieth. That gives us a little over two weeks for a honeymoon before Todd has to start in at summer school again.” “Wonderful! Mike and I had >nly a weekend. Where are you going? Or shouldn’t I ask?” “You may ask—and probably guess the answer. We re going to take the old jalopy and head for New Englahd and just go, according to our whim and fancy, as long as our money holds out. I suspect that will be for only about a week. Maybe ten days. Then we’ll come back here ahd finish fixing up our apartment the rest of the time, because we can’t possibly get it. AU painted and ready beforehand?’ i - Betty notided. “Siunda nice. Well, stop in and sec us on your way home,* if you fe<*l' like it. That’ll save you a hotel bill tor One night, anyway-” “We ll take you up on that," Joan said quickly. “Oh, am 1 going to be the thrifty wife!" “About the decorations • for the church and the reception here,” Mrs. Foster said musingly. “You don’t want to have to think about that at the last minute, Jdkn. So why don’t you ask Diane to take care of those two details for you ? She would love to have a finger in the pie, you know. She idolizes ■you.*! , ' ; ■ . „ Joan promptly caught at this suggestion.

“And you know, Jo-Jo, each bridesmaid pays for her own dress,” Betty cut in. ' "Is that correct?" Joan’s voice held a little doubt “Absolutely. And let me tell you something in case you’re worried about the expense for me. I’m tickled to death for a' chance to get myself a new formal. The 4a?t one 1 bought was during freshfnan year at College. Remenabet? It was when 1 went to timidly tad fearfully to the dance at Colgate with you. you were Don’s gtlest and you fixed it up with him to invite me for his roommate. It was a blind date and how 1 dreaded it! 1 was simply scared stiff because I wasn’t used to going out with boys. Little did 1 dream rd meet my fate that night. But I fell head over heels in love with Michael at first sight." “And he with you. I was simply stunned. You, the shrinking violet, the first of all of us to catch yeur man. Yet 1 wasn’t too surprised, really, because you were so perfectly beautiful.” Joan reached over and touched Betty's hand lightly for a moment. 'TH never forget. That flame-colored dress of yours certainly did things tor you. It gave you—what shall I say?—a lovely glow!” “Well, that’s the dress I wore to our spring dance senior year. I just had it remodeled a little. And I haven’t had a - new one since. That's why I’m glad to have a legitimate and pressing reason for getting another one. But what color do you want me to wear? Can’t we.talk about that now?" “Yesi Well, I’m planning to use the colors that are in the pknes of glass in the church windows. Come across the street with me and look at them. Then you can choose which you want.” Joan jumped to her feet. "Mother will stay here with Beth." "Dofi’t hurry. Why don’t you take Betty over to see your apartment after you finish at the church ?’’ The girls went off and Mrs. Foster was left alone in the quiet and fragrance and peace of the May afternoon. She was deeply happy. She saw Joan’s future in the safe keeping of a man she knew and trusted and loved like a son. (To Bn Costumed) jafefc.
Cites Major Reasons O£ Traffic Accidents Here
Dangerous roads and out-of-coua-ty drivers not familiar with Adame county roads were Hated by deputy sheriff Merle Affoider M two major reasons for Adams county’s high traffic death rate last year, as compared with neighboring counties. A booklet of traffic accident facts, published by the Indiana traffic safety committee and released this week, showed that Adams county had 18 traffic deaths last year. Figures for other nearby counties are: Wells. 1 death; Jay, 8 deaths; Blackford, 7 deaths; Huntington, 10 deaths. The numbers of motor vehicles registered in Adams and nearby counties are: Adams, 13,010; Wails. 11,133; Jay, 12,233; Blackford, 6,<14; Huntington, 15,458. Os the 12 deaths in Adams county, six occurred on highway 224; three on highway 27, one on highway 101. and two on county highways, Affoider stated. So far this year Adams county has reported four traffic deaths. Two of these, Affoider points out, have resulted at unmarked county road intersections. Unmarked intersections and Indiana’s right-of-way law were listed as major causes of accidents by Affoider. 'He pointed out that the county commissioners have been marking many of the county highways, especially the black-top-ped ones, but that many are still unmarked. The high cost of making and installing signs at every crossroads is the major obstacle to this program. Indiana’s present right-of-way law states that the first person to enter an unmarked intersection has the right-of-way, and that it two enter at the same ttane, the car to the right has the right-of-way, Affoider points out that in the. days of mud roads, horses and buggies, and slow automobiles this allowed plenty of time for stopping. But today the right-of-way law leads to races to the intersection, resulting in death, injury, and property damage. Affoider recommends a change in the state law to provide for yield-right-of-way signa. These signs would not require a driver to stop, but require observation and caution, and would fix responsibility
STNOPSIS After a long and ardent courtship. Joan Fostei and Todd Hunter had set i data tor their wedding.

There will be a reception and simple buffet tea a ter at the Foster home. The widowed rs. Fetter and Todd's parents, too. ire well pleased with this impending alliance. '• CHAPTER TEN JOAN woke early on the morning ot her wedding, so early that the birds were just beginning to stir in the trees outside her window, and the stare were still faintly visible in the paling sky. From where she lay she could see the dawn break, and the rich glowing beauty ot the eastern heavens as the sun rose seemed an augury to her. Not only this day but all the days ahead that she would share with Todd held a promise of splendor. She could not sleep again. Her mind was too busy recollecting, in this moment of quiet, the whirling activity of the days and weeks that had passed. The hectic days of shopping, of putting into force, Her many wedding plans. Joan’s mind went back again to everybody’s arrival the day before yesterday—Thursday. ■ She and Todd bad driven first to La Guardia airport to meet the plane on which Elaine and Don were due. How good it had been to see them both after such a long time of separation! Elaine, as young and rovely-looking as ever in spite of motherhood. And as smartly groomed as she had been vViIUgU. *vU WVUIU IH.-VVI b u '-‘W she spent her days on a ranch in the wilds of Arizona and had two bouncing boys at home. Don (Joan had thought) seemed a little older, a littie more—what was the word 7 Settled, perhaps. The responsibility of getting his camp established had probably matured him. Joan had greeted Elaine with the warm, affectionate admiration she had always felt for her. "Elaine! Oh, darling, I'm so glad to see you! Andhow marvelous you look!" “Same to you, Joan. I’d never guess you were a knocked-down, dragged-out bride-to-be." “But Uni not! 1 made up my mind not to be like that And I'm not. Everything’s going on wheels." Joan had turned toward Don whose bright blue eyes were fixed on her in -almost the way they used to be. Almost—but Aot quite. “Hello, Don." “Hello, Joan." With a hand in eacli bf theirs she bad exclaimed happily, “It's wonderful—simply wonderful — to have you both here." “It’s wonderful for us to be here," Don had replied. And then he and Todd had found each other, and had grinned and exchanged aaacUnaaXa Uuixnn* an th* back
» in case of accident. At each intersection two approaches would be marked, and two unmarked. The driver on the unmarked highway would have the right-of-way; the other driver would be advised by signs of distinctive shape, “yield right-of-way.’’ This would not necessitate full stops as present 4way stop intersections do; the latter also does not fix responsibility in case of accident, and often results in expensive law suit*. However, such “yield right-of-way” signs could not be installed without a change in state law. Bridges and curves were pointed* out by Affoider as especially dangerous points. Several non-fatal accidents had occurred at a bridge south of Monroe on highway 27. Affoider staled, but none have been reported there since the bridge was clearly painted to show that there is plenty of clearance. Also, the dangerous curve on highway 224 at the Ohio state line has now been marked with reflectors, and no recent accident*, have been reportd there. It is interesting to note that of the six fatal accident* test year,- on route 224, none were approaching Decatur from the state line. iMost vehicle accidents in Adams county this past year Involved pleasure drivers rather than professional truck or bus drivers. This is in line with the state report, which shows that of 190,000 accidents 167,000 were the result of pleasure-type vehicles. While 66 per cent of all Indiana accidents involved local residents last year, deputy Affoider estimated that the Adams county figure would be a little less than 50 per cent. Affoider stated that with very few exceptions most highway trouble in Adaans county results from out-of-county drivers. > ttasedßrme(il Former Baer Field Workers To Meet Former civilian personnel employed at Baer Field during World War H are invited to attend a potluck reunion at Lawton Park on North Clinton street Sunday at 11 aim.

and Don was saying, “Hi, Todd, | you old su p e r-annuated some-1 thing-or-other.

They had other matters of more importance on their minds. •‘Nothing could be more import- 1 ant," Don had declared, and he had hauled the little pictures from ' his pocket anyway. “Great kids, i aren’t they?

But after two year* away, this looks good.” ”1 was so afraid you might be held up somewhere.” “Yes, in the bay with a fog or—" “Or maybe in the customs with all the smuggling you've no doubt done." "Nunh-unh! Not us. We declared everything. Hey, Todd, any ideas about a job I might get?” “Oh, Ttfm! Not now! Not yet!" "Okay. Okay. Just thought I’d ask. It has a certain Importance, you know." “1 know. But later .** . "Pam, the Bartons are part of the wedding group, too." "Yes? Nice. I thdught they might be.

Paris is thrilling, exciting—• all ot that But East, West home is best-" . , “1 know. That’s just the way I felt. Where are your mother and , father, Pam? 1 thought they’d be here.” “Mother’s not well. They decided not to come dfiwn. They’re sorry to miss your wedding out—" “Elaine, we’re neglecting you terribly. Excuse us, please! Do you know who Pam really is? Did I write you about her being my roommate? And about her wedding—" “Yes, you did. was married in Austria.” ■ , "Not quite. She became engaged in Austria. But she and Tom were married in Paris and Todd and I were—" Fam broke in. "Elaine ?

59 Riding Horses Destroyed By Fire Riding Stable In Chicago Damaged CHICAGO (INS) — A flash fire destroyed 59 riding horse* and caused an estimated <IOO,OOO in damage to the New Park Way riding stables in Chicago Sunday night. Another 46 horses, among them valuable unimale boarded at the stable by socially-prominent families on Chicago's nearby Gold Coast, were led to safety. Two versions of what caused the fire have been given by authorities < who planned to Investigate the blaze. One belief Is that a cigarette was tossed on the seat of a horse van parked next to the building and that the flames spread to the gasoline tank which exploded and hurled burning fuel through windows into the basement. ’ Another is than a transformer blew out a utility pole and the spark ignited the truck. Fans in the basement of. the stables then I, drew the flames into the stables. 15 Violent Deaths Reported In Ohio By International News Service I Attempts to escape the summer* heat accounted for most of the 15 t accidental deaths over the weekend in Ohio, including eight ' drownings and six deaths on the ' highway.
