weather and the correct time signals now have a new service to tip them off on the "top *ix" bargain* of the day. An enterprising former sales manager of a Chicago radio station, Robert W. Ward, initiated the new idea and quit his job to start "Bargain Shopping Services, Inc." The service, with a sff-phone trunkline now averages more than 1,000 calls a day from housewives , interested in getting the latest tips on price reductions before starting shopping tours. A tape recording reels off the reductions just like a weather report or the time signals. Ward comments: "We never list an item in our six best bargains of the day unless it is a ‘special’ that has been cut drastically from regular prices.” Stores pay a penny an incoming call plus 35-a-day recording charge for a listing on Ward’s tape recorded message.

SYNOPSIS Jim Bennett, noted sleuth of Ci«veland. Ohio, accompanies his secretary. Miss Sandy Hollis, to her family home In rural Ohio, for a week-end of pheasant shooting. He is received welt by Sandy's parents, and rugged Rex Bishop, their farm-hand, regales him with tales of "shootin' days" in the old west. Jim also meets Sandy’s warvet brother, Ralph. He had recently broken hie engagement to handsome, spirited Judy Kirkland. In favor of docile Eileen Fortune. Everyone including her father. Jake Fortune, had expected Eileen to marry Earl Seltzman. Jake's partner in a cattle-buying business. Later at a gathering tn the Hollis home. Bennett meets all these people. Fun and fellowship prevail CHAPTER FOUR IN THE living room Ralph Halls and Jake Fortune were in conversation by the fireplace. Eileen had left Ralph and was now sltUng beside Earl Seltznian. He was talking to ner in low tones, his head bent forward, his eyes bright and intense behind his glasses. She was listening, but I saw her gaze dart to Ralph, who very carefully avoided looking at ner. Mra Hollis was sitting comfortably in a rocking chair on the tar side of the fireplace with a darning needle and a basket of heavy wool socks. We passed the drinks. Homer had sat down by a table on which was a stack of farm journals. 1 pulled up a chair beside him, said, “Where's Rex?" "In bed. He gets up at five o'clock in the morning, winter and summer. He wouldn't need to, but he still lives tn the old days, before we had electric milking machines and tractors and automatic feeders.” He smiled his shy smile. "Os course, we still have to see that the right buttons are pushed.” "Oh, sure,” 1 said, laughing. "You farmers certainly have it easy.” He smiled, more with his eyes than his mouth, and sipped at ius ' wnisky. "I like Rex," I said. "He's one of the family," Homer said. "He won't w’ork tor anyone else. This place belonged to him

Strange Request Sent To County Clerk Here

Meeting strange requests is an everyday problem in the county court house, but this week an unusual letter from an out-of-state lady left a perplexed county clerk. Edward F. Jaberg, clerk of the circuit court, reported receiving the following letter. Names have been deleted to prevent embarrassing the sender, as the original spelling and punctuation is used: To the Cleark of Court at the "Court House Decatur, Indiana Dear friend I am citing to you asking you Please do a favor for me first 1 Will tell you Who I am. and Why I ask for this I am Mrs Stellie -———.Mr John Raymond ’s Wife and he married me With out a Devorise from the Woman he Married under and a sumed name, for which I new notting about till it was to late and he is So mean and cruel to Me and he jujst Drink up all he makes.

at one time—until the depression. He lost It in *32, and the bank eventually sold it to me. I guess he thinks he still owns it, the way he acts sometimes.” He laughed softly. “Rex is more of a partner than a hired hand. He has a share of the wheat and corn, and all the truck stuff, and the pigs are his.” “Can he really shoot—like he said?" “He’s a fine shot, as old as be is. Got quite a little gun shop out in the barn. He’s all excited about you—thinks you’ll give him some competition. If you get time tomorrow, maybe you wouldn’t mind doing some shooting with him.” “I’d like to,” 1 said, and I meant it. "How much land do you farm?" "A hundred and forty acres now. I’ve been selling land, and going in more for blooded stock.” He also told me that the morning hunting party would consist of himself, Sandy, Ralph, Eileen Fortune and her father, and myself. "Aren’t you going to invite young Seltzman?" 1 asked. He lit his pipe and said shortly, "That's up to Ralph.” I gazed around the room. Sandy had Joined Ralph and Jake Fortune at the fireplace. Looking at Earl Seltzman’s pale, Intense face, at the glitter of his glasses, at the movement of. his Ups as he muttered into Eileen's ear, as they sat on the divan, 1 thought that he was acting very badly, here in the home of Ralph Hollis, who was going to marry the girl beside him. I wondered why he had come, and 1 thought. Forget her, son, and buck up. The best won and all that and stop trying to talk her out of it. She’s made up her mind and you’d better find a new girU i Sandy moved away from the fireplace to a phonograph console at the tar end of the room. In a ' moment the soft giano magic of ■ Frankie Carle filled the room. I i settled back in my chair with a

This information was relayed to the lady who desired the information by the clerk, who reports that strange requests are commonplace in his job.

sigh or contentment. Sandy came and stood beside me and her father. Homer Hollis said, “I wish you’d come home more often, honey." She leaned down and kissed him. “I would, Dad, but Jim works me too hard." "Really cracks the whip, does he?" Homer’s eyes glinted with amusement. "Maybe you need it. I remember when you were a little girl your mother could never get you to make your bed.” *T have a terrible time with her,** I said. "I’m thinking about getting a new girl—a Monde, this time." “Now, listen—," Sandy began, and then she gazed out of the window. “Oh, fun. More company." The lights of a car were streaking up the lane. They disappeared and we heard the rattle of stone as the car braked to what must have been a skidding stop. That’s Judy,’’ Sandy said. “Nobody else in the world drives like that" The room was suddenly quiet, and the piano melody from the console was soft and bell-clear. Even Earl Seltzman stopped his low monologue, and both he and Eileen Fortune looked toward the archway leading to the front halL Ralph Hollis and Jake Fortune turned expectantly from the fireplace, and Mrs. Hollis stopped her gentle rocking. Homer puffed silently on his pipe. Sandy moved out into the halt . The front door opened and closed, . there were voices of greeting and a woman's quick laughter. Sandy ’ returned to the living room with i an arm around a slender black- , haired girl, who was murmuring > in protest, “But you have i guests. . . "Nonsense, Judy," Sandy said , "I’m glad you came.’’ The two of j them stopped and faced the room j I got to my feet, as did Homer j Hollis, who said quietly, “Good [ evening, Judy." l (To Be Continued) ■ I IH I nil 7 Illi ■■■■■—
