A Dairy Leader: — Adams county is wealthier and farm income is more abundant as a result of the development of dairy farms ia this area. This cycle of improved rural proaperity can be traced to about 1916 when W. A. Klepper of this city and the late Bari Martin of Markle formed the Martla-Klep-per Co., and a few years later built a modern butler-making plant on Winchester street. Dairy herds were placed on many farms and as the operations " and manufacturing facilities of the local creamery expanded, a new source of income flowed into the county from the sale of cream and butt erf at. The retirement of Mr. Klepper from active leadership in Cloverleaf Creameries, Inc., recalls many of the incidents and community projects undertaken and carried through successfully by * him and others In this county in the interest of dairying. Paramount in this development is the stress that Mr. Klepper pieced on dairying through his original Dairy Day celebrations. These events were not only spectacular and original, bat they built friendship, created cash markets and milk routes, and it wasn't long until you saw valuable dairy cattle and new buildings on the farms that engaged in dairying. Although the creamery and cheese-making plants no longer operate here, the foundation for the expanded dairy fanning business was laid and still flourishes, with sales outlets provided by other sources. Milk remains our most nourishing food. Mr. Klepper Is recognised as one of Ahe leeding.jdaio' industry executives in the country. He pioneered many innovations in this highly specialised field of production. His Cloverleaf Dairy Days were instrumental in emphasising the importance of dairying in this area and in the promotion of dairy herds on our farms. Yes. "Bill" Klepper started something in this county in the teen period and early twenties of--the century which continues to roll on and contributes much to the prosperity of our community. • As E. E. Stewart, president of National Dairy Products, said in paying tribute to Mr. Kleppers leadership in the industry, “He c was the guiding genius of the business". > 1 ■■ - Household Scrapbook I BY ROBERTA LEE • « Brass Faucets Brass faucets can De kept from looking water spotted if, after cleaning them, a little furniture polish Is applied.

Twin-Remedy Drug Acts On Body Like Adrenalin

Bf HERMAN N. BbAKSEN, M.D. HYDROCORTISONE Is a twin remedy; It helps the chronically 111 and It works miraculously on certain acute illnesses. It is used for allergies and arthritis and for the severe shocklike states that follow severe injury. emergency surgery, and the . overwhelming Infections of meningitis and brain surgery. Resembles Adrenalin Hydrocortisone has an action similar to that of the adrenal gland in giving the body power te fight off these devastating conditions. The adrenal gland acts as a Stress organ In the body, giving the patient enough fortitude and strength to carry him through difficult physical injuries, caused by either accident or surgery. A Drawback Although hydrocortisone works in a similar manner, it did have a drawback to its use. Until a

A native of this city, Mr. Lenhart owned and op-‘ erated a sawmill here and also expanded his operations with the construction of several houses. He was a friendly gentleman and was held in high respect by all who knew him. • - As a warning to motorists that children may be playing in the street, a stop sign wHI be placed at the intersection of Stratton Way and Umberlost Trail. This area is entirely residential and there is no excuse for speeding along the driveways. A fine of $lO4 can be assessed against those who neglect to observe the traffic control signal at tbe Stratton Place crossing. 0 0 ' Foreign policy certainly should be an issue in the congressional campaign. Much depends on what the administration does in dealing with other governments. If the administration wants credit for accomplishments it must also take criticism for mistakes and failures in tbe diplomatic field. So far the state department hasn't chalked up many victories in dealing with other nations. p o New York Democrats have a combination of Harriman and Roosevelt, which might spell victory tor the party in the governorship race. Averell Harriman, who was nominated for governor over Franklin D. Roosevelt* Jr., will have his rival on the ticket as candidate for state attorney general. The merger of the two leading groups within the party is termed a political stroke favorable to tbe Democratic nominees. —o—o—- — recent poll of 117 newspaper men and-women in Washington and New York shows that twothirds are members "of some church. More than a third attend church regularly, half make annual pledges for the support of churches, whether they go regularly or not. U Is plain that most of the newspaper people believe in religion and their churches. A Dry Skin For a dry skin, mix together one-half ounce each of cocoa butter. glycerine, lanolin, rosewater, and elder-flower water. Hand Sewing When one expects to do a great deal of hand sewing, a wonderful convenience is to place a pillow, in the lap nnd keep the sewing on the lap. This will also ease the arms.

short time ago it had to be given by mouth or by injection into the muscle. Recently, a stable form was developed which can be injected directly Into the vein. In this way the drug can be spread throughout the body without any danger. , The form of this drug that is given into the vein has been used in children with severe meningitis. Remarkable recoveries were obtained in many who were close to death. It also proved lifesaving In operations which had to be conducted on patients in very poor condition. QUESTION AND ANSWER « Mrs. O. T.: Is it true that the removal of a sex‘gland in a woman suffering from cancer of the breast helps this disease? Answer: In Certain cases of breast cancer, the removal of the female sex glands Is of help.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR WHEN abe was alone in a quiet Hotel room, Penn flew to the telephone. But there was no message for her from Kissel. It was a long, dreary afternoon. Penn sat in the lobby with a magazine, not seeing the printed page, trying not to think about GU. She went back to her room and did her hair over and put on a dean blouse. Then the telephone rang, but it was her uncle’s voice on the wire. “Looks as if Tm stuck here tonight, Penn. Get yourself some dinner. Just sign the check. Go to s movie or something." “I'll be all right. Uncle Elihu. Dqn’t worry about me." She bought an evening paper, searched it carefully, but there was no headline reporting the loss of a submarine. There was a two-column headline. Senator Storey was in conference with the governor, who blasted the recent smear campaign in Congress as a political attack by the Parke Hilliard faction. At least Uncle Elihu was still In there fighting. There was no message from Larry Kissel. There was no word when morning came. “You want to go out and stay with Grandma Houk?” Elihu asked, when they were again aboard a plane. “Roads seem to be dry. No snow out hers yet. Tomorrows Thanksgiving—guess the old lady would be glad to have some company for Thanksgiving.” Penn said: ‘TU stay at the hotel, 1 think. Os course I’ll go out and see grandma and grandpa tomorrow. Maybe you can go, too, Uncle Elihu?” TU see If 1 can arrange it. Holiday—not much chance to get some of the people I’ve got to talk to. Mending my fences.” He laughed 'a Uttie. As soon as her uncle was off on his own concerns, Penn hurried to the newspaper office, the brown envelops under her arm. Barney Patton was there. He was a long, gaunt old man with beetling brows. Penn explained the envelope and Patton opened It and took out papers and a sealed tin box. “Tape recording," he said. “Claudia Mapes said you would know what to do with all these papers, Mr. Patton.” “Hm—looks like they haven't got old Elihu Uckcd yet. Went to school with Elihu — Josh, too. Whore you?” "I’m ono of the Houks. Wendell Houk's daughter.” “Visiting the old folks? Give old Rule the time of the day for me.” “I will. Thank you very much, Mr. Patton.” "Don’t thank me. Thank Claudio Mapes. Been watting to get something on Josh Henning a long time." Penn back to the hotel. There was a yellow envelope in her box. and the kov. Kho hurraed

Into a secluded comer of the lobby, ripped tt open with shaking Angers. It was not from Larry Kissel. It was from Quincy. -Well, I did it. Marrying Yates December Quiet wedding as Mr. Yates ft os baa tight stroke. For heaven $ sake come home ana SM pport me. No change here, things still grim. Quincy." • • • It was a strange Thanksgiving day. Old Mrs. Houk had been tearful and tremendously excited when Penn arrived at the old brown house in a taxi at XO o'clock ur the morning. “My lands, how you’ve grown! /Now, don t tell me. Let me guess, it’s Quincy—no, it’s Penn!" Grandpa Houk came limping out ot the kitchen to hug Penn, scratching ner face with his beard, as she nad remembered. “And you said there wasn’t any use Daklng a pie tor Just us, ma," he laughed. “1 baked It, anyway. Mince pie, ’ chirped the oid lady, talcing Penn's coat. “But we've only got chicken and dumplings. Why didn't you let us know so pa could have got a turkey?" “1 love chicken and dumplings. Oh, grandma, It all looks the same! The same old rocking chairs by the stove —the same cushions even." "And the same old folks sittin' in ’em, too. You come away out here ail alone?". “No," Uncle Elihu came with ma He's at the hotel with some men he had to sea He said he might run out to dinner if he could get away.” “Better stir up some more dumplln, ma” "I haven't stirred up any yet. They go in the last thing. Now you come straight out in the kitchen, Penn, with pa and me, and you can sit by and tell us ail the news. How's Maude ? She wrote me about Gil's wife geitur killed, but 1 haven't bad a word since. Terrible, wasn't It?" "Quincy's getting married,” Penn told them. "Good sakea Who to? Anybody we know ?” “His name is Yates Underwood. His grandfather Is Myron Yates. You may have seen the oid man's name m the papers. He was very prominent In Washington.” "Have you seen his name, pa?” “1 forget. So ma n y of them prominent fellers now. Has he got any money?’’ ' "Oh, yes, the grandfather la quite wealthy and Yates is his only family.” At 12 o'clock Elihu phoned. He talked to Penn. “I’ve got a colonel and two pub--110 information officers on my ban a a ram. Flew down tram

You have a good time. We might get away from here in the morning.’* She nad shown nim Quincy's telegram at breakfast and his comment had been a dry grunt. “Getting the old moose on our side, is she? Well, ne can't Uve forever. Young Underwood’s all right, 1 guess. Not much force in him, but he's harmless.” There were no-'messages when Penn returned tothe hotel, nor had her uncle come in. For a time she debated telephoning home, but gave up the idea. She could not face finality where there might still be nope. She was sitting In her room, waiting, when the telephone rang. But it was a woman s voice that answered when she sprang to the receivex. “This Miss Houk? This is Sophie Swazey, Claudie Mapes’ sister. My, were we surprised to hear you were in town." “Clsudia spoke about you—l tnter.ued calling you before we left but I've just come In.” “Well. 1 guess you heard the radio. We Just happened to turn It on the local station—Barney Patton's station, and there was voice, justas plain—and that Josh Henning orTOred her to get out ot Elihu's office and she talked back to him sharp and plenty. The feller explained It was a record that was being broadcast here to set people straight on what had gone on in that ordnance business.” “That tin box,” Penn remembered. "Don't explain—and don't let your uncle know,” Claudia had warned. That old newspaperman's eyes bad glittered briefly when he found the tape recording In the envelope, but would Uncle Elihu have wanted it to be broadcast? Had Claudia overstepped her responsibility, done a rash and unpredictable thing? At midnight there came a knock on her door. 9he twisted quickly into her robe, turned On the light and with that small, sick clutch ot dread that svery new development brought lately, she opened the door a little way. The senator stood In the hall, wearing his overcoat. “Hate to drag you out of a warm bed, but wc can get a plane out ot hers in an hour and 30 minutes,” he said. “Plane's on time, last report. Get us home before noon tomorrow." She 'TU be ready." "See grandma?” "Yes, l spent the day with them. They were disappointed because you couldn't come.” "Had to finish up here. I’ll send a boy for your bag.” (To Be Continued/ .
