Since the administration of President Madison, when it was established the fund has grown to over $2,000,000 and doesn't include many items of failure to pay income taxes or large sums taken from Uncle Sam in various ways. 0 0 Lawrence E. Archbold, Adams county agricultural agent, known throughout northern Indiana as "Archie” has announced his retirement effective at the close of the present year. During his long tenure as county agent he'has seen his office grow in importance and become the official beadquarters for Adams county farmers. Working closely with the federal department and Purdue University, the county agent perhaps knows as many Adams county folks as any Hying person. Archie has not limited his services to that of county agricultural agent, he has served on civic committees and assisted in many worthwhile causes in last thirty years. The Dally Democrat joins with hundreds of other friends in wishing Archie and his fine wife all the better things in life. 0 0 For a good many months there have been from two to eight dangerous criminals lodged in the Adams county jail. Sheriff Robert Shraluka and his one deputy Merle Affolder, sheriff-elect are responsible for keeping these men in the jail, In the process of a day's work in the sheriff’s office, it. is necessary often for both the officer and his deputy to be away from the Jail at the same time. This leaves the responsibility of the jail with the sheriff's" wife, which is quite an added duty for a woman. We have been fortunate because of the efforts of both Sheriff Shraluka and Deputy Affolder. The arrangement, which permits the sheriff Only one deputy is more than fifty years old. There is much more outside work required today than a few. years ago. There are numerous papers which must be served all over the county; there are prisoners to take to institutions: there are highways to •patrol; there are frequent appearances in courts. Often these duties strain the patience and physical abilities of two men. The time is coming, it would seem when a second deputy or jail turnkey Vzshould be employed. It would be money well spent and with the start of a new term and a new sheriff in January, possibly then would be a good time to consider the matter.

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN SADDEST of ail, the c 11 n i c’s children, as Cynthia had learned, were the ones who were not wanted. The ones who had no home to return to; no love wait* mg to sustain them. The ones who must spend the rest of their lives in boarding homes or institutions. These weighed heavily on Cynthia’s heart and mind, yet they also brought her much joy. Their progress, no matter how "slow, their abilities, no matter how limited, became her own to rejoice in; their mistakes and inadequacies were burdens to be carried on her shoulders, too. When any of them had a relapse, or were taken ill, she, as well as those more closely associated, suffered and hoped and prayed for their speedy recovery. So how could she stay away from them, not worry about them, cut herself off from them? She was their Nurse Lady. She was a part of them, as they had become an integral part of her. And she kneW that Walt felt much as she did. Parents would say to him, “Please make my child whole and well again.” The children themselves came to believe that he alone could cure them. In ins hands, each one rested. So that it was no wonder the clime, his work, meant so much to him. How could any one woman expect ever to take their place, or want to usurp it ? Well, she could hope for just a little niche or corner. Half a loaf was supposed to be better than none. She supposed she was selfish, and young, to want more. Maybe by the time she was old and gray, and Walt woke up and offered that fraction to her, she would not want more. Walt 'phoned that evening at dinnertime. He said he had phoned several times before. When he had not received an answer, he had thought perhaps she had changed her mind and gons home to Indiana, after alt "Oh, I'm still around,” Cynthia returned. “1 have 1 no intention of going as far away as Indiana. The reason you got no answer was that I've been out shopping every day. You see, I'm getting ready for a wedding." "A wedding?” "Yes.” His voice had sounded so

startled that it amused Cynthia. She realized that she had not said whose wedding it was to be. She decided not to. “It takes a long time to shop for a trousseau," she added sweetly. If he wanted to think it was for her own wedding, let him. There was such a long silence from the other end of the wire that whatever young Dr. Sellars was thinking must have taken some time. After this process had been completed, he said, "1 see.” His tone still sounded startled, or at any rate, it did not sound as though he saw through what she had just told him at aIL "Is everything going along all right at the clinic ?” Cynthia asked. "Everything’s going along splendidly,” Dr. Sellars informed his assistant nurse. His voice was his professional one. “Just splendidly.” “That's fine.” She did not feel that it was. It proved that the clinic, and Walt, could do without her. It was too bad it was not going to be her wedding.” There was another pause. The wires seemed to be humming. But the people at each end of this line had, apparently, nothing to say to each other. Walt was wondering If Cynthia might not explain that remark about getting ready tor a wedding, shopping for a bride's trousseau. Surely if she was going to marry that Brandt fellow, she would tell him about IL After all, he was still her “boss.” As for Cynthia, she decided she would not explain a thing. "I Just wondered if 1 should ask Miss Whiting to stay on tor another week," Walt said. “Not that I’m trying to rush you. U you feel you want to take another week, or even longer, just say so." “1 really hadn’t thought about coming back," Cynthia informed him, if not quite honestly. As Norman bad said, almost anything was fair in love. And war. She was beginning to wonder which this was. For Walt dduld make her so angry with him. Like saying he was not rushing her—that was a laugh! "As long as Miss Whiting is doing so nicely, 1 might as well take another week or sb,” she added, in that same sugary tone. "That’s perfectly all right," her "boss" said. "I'm sure Miss Whiting will be delighted to stay as
Baber's To Continue Operation Os Store A .report was current several weeks ago that Baber Jewelry store would be sold to a Fort Wayne Jewelry s.ore operator. The sale, however was not made, a Baber representative announced today, and no sale is contemplated. The local Baber store is operated by James Newton of this city, ‘ Agriculture Leaders Meet Here Monday Key men and women in agriculture in Adams county have been invited to a meeting in the farmers home administration office in the Niblick building Monday at 10 a.m. to discuss the new authority for assisting farmers and farm owners improve their farms through water control projects sponsored by private capital instead of tax money. Three federal agencies, the extension office, soil conservation service, and FHA will have some part in the program. It is a new program, and the round-table discussion is to help everyone in the county receive accurate information on the program. Accident Caused By Unidentified Auto An accident caused by an unidentified third car resulted in approximately $225 damage to cars driven by Richard Marbach and Charles H. Stonestreet, both of Decatur, on Thirteenth street Friday evening at 6:45 o’clock. . Stonestreet had signaled to turn left and was followed by Marbach. As Stonestreet pulled out to turn, a third car passed both vehicles, forcing Stonestreet back into the right lane of traffic, where he was hit from the rear by Marbach’s vehicle. Damage to Marbach’s car was estimated at $l5O by the police. and $75 damage to StOnestreet’s vehicle. The third car did not stop. Si IM SERVICE Jfcjb ■Metzger Here Staff Sgt.

long as you want her to substitute for you. In fact, she told me only today that she wished she could remain Indefinitely.” “Oh, she did." The sugar turned to vinegar. The laugh might be on her. There was not room, yet, for two nurses in the clinic. “Well, in that case,” Cynthia said, "I'll let you know when I do decide to come back. And if anything should happen to change my plans, I’ll know it won’t upset you, or the clinic.” “1 didn't me an,” Dr. Sellars’ voice sounded startled and puzzled again, “that the clinic could get along without you, Cynthia. You as good as promised that I could count on you. You wouldn’t let anything—er—e vena wedding—keep you from Yhturfiing, would you V* If he thought it was she who was going to be married, why didn't he come out and say so, the dope! Impatience as well as anger tilled her, so that her voice was snappish. “Oh, you can’t get rid of me so easily,” she said. “I told you I’d probably still be working Ln the clime when I’m old and gray. So don’t lose any sleep—nothing will prevent my comihg back." “That’s good.” Yet the way he said it did not make it sound so. At least his voice did not have a very cheerful ring. “Well, it was nice to talk with you, Cynthia.” “Oh, it was Lovely, just lovely!” she returned. She remembered wiiat Norman had said about wondering if Walt ever Laughed. Not at himself, anyway, she was sure. For his owp good, someone, or something, ought to make him do that much, if nothing more. For it you could not learn to laugh, at yourself, at life, what was the use of living? Yet, after she had hung up, Cynthia felt more like having a good cry. She decided, however, she simply would not shed any, more tears over Dr. Sellars. She would try to follow her own advice, and laugh. She would go downtown and do some shopping on her own. Buy a whole new outfit, really splurge. For there was nothing that could turn away the blues, and set you up, more than buying something pretty to wear. Something you did not really need. And could not really afford. i (Jo Be Continued)

These private individual demonstrations will be held at the Rice Hotel on Sunday ONLY, November 21, 12 noon to 9 p. m. OKLAHOMA CITY, Nov. 11, 1954 - In an interview here today Wil liam L, Keele, internationally famous trichologist and president of the Keele Hair and Scalp Specialists, Inc., said “There are IS different scalp disorders that cause most men and women to lose hair. Using common sense, a person must realize no one tonic or so called cure-all could correct all the disorders," he explained. GUARANTEED "The Keele firm, recognizing that most people are skeptical of claims that hair can be grown on balding heads, offer a guarantee.” Keele said. Once a person avails themselves to the Keele treatment his skepticism immediately disappears. To insure this, we offer this guarantee “If you are not completely satisfied with your hair progress at the end of 30 days your money will be returned.” HOPELESS CASES DISCOURAGED First the trirhologist is quick to fell hopeless case’s that they cannot be helped. Hut the ’ hopeless" cases are few. Only if a man is completely, shiny bald is-he in this lost category.

examination and no appointment is necessary. After th* examination the person is told the required length of treatment and how much it will cost. After starting treatment, the person makes regular reports to the Keele firm iu Oklahoma City to check the progress of the home treatment. To spread the opportunity of normal, healthy hair to the thousands who are desperately looking for help, independent trichologidts are visiting various cities throughout the United States to conduct examinations and start home treatment. NOCUREALL i "We have no cure-all for slick, shiny baldness.” Keele emphasizes.. “If there is fuss, the root it still capable of creating hair and we can perform what seems to be a miracle.” There is one thing Keele wants to hq certain every man and woman knows. It a recession appears at the temples or a apot begins to show up on the crown of the bead, there is something wrong and it should be given immediate attention. HAIR FOR LIFETIME “If clients follow our directions during treatment and after they finish the course, there is no reason Why they will not have hair all the rest of their lives," Keele said; “Our firm is definitely behind this treatment, it all depends on the individual client’s faithful observation of a few simple rules,” HOW’S YOUR HAIR?
