Everyone was happy a year ago when Congress gave a 350 tax reduction to holders of common stocks. Why all the fuse now because Democrat members of Congress are tb there battling for us little fellows with a proposed 520 tax cat? o o It’s nearing the time to think about new Easter dresses and spring suits. Watch the advertisements of Decatur retailers in the Daily Democrat. We are sure you’ll get mom for your money If you trade in Decatur. If you try shopping in Decatur, our guess is that you’ll become a regular Decatur customer. 0 o Indiana has a new law. Effective this coming April, it is not necessary to make a quarterly gross income tax return and payment unless your tax for the first three months to 325 or more. Previously, it was necessary to make a quarterly payment if your tax was 319 or more. The Governor signed the measure last week. -.-0 .... .. According to new* dispatches, major league baseball players are starting to gather at southern citiees preparatory to starting drills for the 1955 season. This is the official harbinger of spring and it always is a welcome sign. Big league players will start practice early in March and exhibition games will start shortly thereafter. ’ This should bring a smile to all of you. The sponsor of the bill in the Indiana General AssemW seeking to permit taverns in the five largest counties tn Indiana to remain open until 1 o’clock each morning, gave as his reasoft for passage of the measure that such a tow would reduce accidents on the highway* We’re confused. We don’t know whether the extra hour would permit a man to sober up or get drunker! Anyway, the bill was defeated. The Decatar political pot is Starting to foam up a little recently. Several local citizens are becoming interested in the approaching mayoralty and councilmanic contests. The job of mayor Os a city the size of Decatur is getting to be a tougher assignment each year. To be a successful mayor, it also is necessary to

have five good councilmen. Decatur baa been extremely fortunate for more than twenty years in that it ha* bad good men in these positions. Let u* each one assign ouraelve* the job of helping get the best possible candidates for each of the jobs, it’s important to all of- us. A o , .' The assessor will be around to see you in the next thirty days. It’* that time of year when personal property to assessed for next year’s tax payments. Assessors and their assistants have an additional job this year, because of the purchase by Adams county residents of hundreds of television sets. Many of these sets will appear on the tax duplicates next year for the first time. There also will be a concentrated drive to assess every automobile and every new piece of farm machinery and equipment. One sure way of eventually getting a tax reduc- < Uon is to report every new purchase of personal property. Every time a person fails to report new C purchases, valuations remain tow and that makes tax rates go high, i f o—-«0 —-« 'r ' * Today we salute a Decatur citi- < sen who has done a good deed 1 which few people know about. ( Ollie Chronister of this city has 1 spent most of the years of bis adult life cutting, buying and sell- t] ing timber. However al through s his life he has retained a con- ’ stent pride and admiration for f Decatur and Decatur high school. t Some time ago, Mr. Chronister 1 was asked by Decatur high school officials to assist in seeking some contributions for the Decatur high school band uniform fund. *t)llie, whcris an ardent high 1 vRRiMRr - sfihwiwni wn~nre um—iw a school sports fan, agreed to ac- ' cept the assignment. His solicitations were limited to members of an unofficial breakfast club in Decatur known as the — Donut Shop Breakfast - time Discussion League. So far, the well known Decatur man has raised SSO for the band fund, and reports are that several additional contributions will be made to him this week. This is another reason why it’s great to live in Decatur, where we have hundreds like Ollie Chronister who are always willing to meet a challenge for the young people of our community whenever asked to do so.

gr LI F CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE MURPHY picked up his sandwich; so did Fred. “The thing to remember, Murphy, is not the wide spaces between folks here, but the basic fact that I'm the only doctor available for 3,000 of those folks. If you had the same number exclusively allotted to you in the city, you'd hop around pretty lively, too, and do all sorts of things." “Then I'm glad we’ve got the specialist system in SL Louis. And, speaking of that, Fritz, 1 had a problem in, your own field just a month before I took this vacation. 1 wished i had you handy then, and I’ve been waiting for a chance to talk to you about it." Fred glanced at his watch. But Huggins knew where to call him. “It won’t take long to tell you. Especially if 1 skip the rather involved means by which we got this patient. She came in from a doctor upstate. Her husband was ridh, an industrialist of some kind. She had developed terrific headaches. They’d had her to Mayo's, and nad spent a year in Tucson—she had a mstory of asthma—and when this constant head-pain developed, she was sure it was a brain tumor." Fred reached for a cookie. “ProbAbly jpolyps." “Yes. Her doctor at home thought ao. Now, Katie, I'm not calling Fred a country doctor." “You might," laughed Fred. “1 am one." "A good one, and so was her doctor. However, when a patient gets a notion that her brain is aflected—" “Sure. Go on." “Well, she came in. since her doctor had said be hoped she could have these polyps surgically removed by a specialist— Her whole physical condition was Dad. Thin —secondary anemia—and neurotic. Funderburk told me to work along with Gottschalk—he's our top nose and throat man these days—and when the woman waljhdmittearwe ordered the roGtine tests?" among them the venous pressure test with an upright apparatus to give us a picture oi the right heart and its pressure, as well as decholin intravenously to test the left heart pressure.” He glanced up at Fred, who bad leaned toward him, his eyes very bnghL Murphy shrugged. “We got instant collapse. Sudden! Dead before we knew it."

Fred sighed and got up from his chair. “It seems positive that she was sensitive to decholin," said Murphy, somew'hat anxiously. “What did Gottschalk think?" “He said he didn't know. That he questioned its being an allergin." “So do L” Fred agreed. “But then what? It’s a routine test." “I want to show you something." Fred went into the hail, opened his bag, and took put a package which was still wrapped to go through the mail. He ripped ofi the outer paper, and laid the box at Murphy's hand. “Read that," he said, turning on his heel, leaving the house. Murphy was still "reading that" when the station wagon went down the streeL Printed rather large upon the box—which contained the bile product, decholin—were the words. “Not to be used tn cases of asthma." • Murphy sat staring straight before him. Katie got up and began to clear the table. “Fred forgot his bag . . she said in a troubled tone. Murphy looked at her thoughtfully. — . "It's only a block—don’t you want to take it down to him?" "Later, maybe. Right now, Katie. I'm going out in the yard. And .ML D'you mind?” “Os course noL But watch the sun. It burns quickly at this altitude." Without answering her, he went out through the kitchen, and across the porch. Katie picked up the blue box and read the labeL She took it to Fred's bag, her eyes shining but thoughtful, too. It had not taken this, of course, to tell her that Fred was much smarter than Murphy Hudson, out it was pleasant to ha ve concrete evidence. , Murphy was all right, she guessed. He was a pretty good doctor, Kkew' enoofhFtbr his purposes. And he could be darned nice. This morning, when he'd hugged her shoulders, he'd left Katie in a rosy glow, though she knew turn too thoroughly to be taken in by bis tricks of charm. The thing he lacked, and which Fred had in abundance; was a certain individual spark. Murphy knew what tie had learned from books, what other doctors had taught him. Murphy would never

However, it is customary now for a divorced woman to use her maiden and her married name. If her original name was Elisabeth Preston, and her married name was Caiison, she becomes Mrs. Elizabeth Preston Cartoon. Q. If it is necessary to remove a hpne from the mouth while at the dinner table, should one use a fork, spoon or the napkin? A. None at these items are in good taste. Merely use the thumb and forefinger, and lay the particle on the plate. Q. Should a young person offer his hand when being introduced to an elderly woman? A.

in the world be able to do Fred’s Job, out here tn the Valley, alone, because Murphy lacked the initia* tire which was Fred’s, the ability to know a thing tor himself, and if not, to study so that he would know it Matters like Fred's masks —she knew without asking that Murpny did no research. He hadn’t the will, or the imagination —or the genius—which that sort of investigation took. He couldn’t solve problems for himself. So. no wonder he wanted Fred ... Her disnes washed, her kitchen tidy and Murphy still stretched out in the long chair under the cottonwood, Katie gathered up her basket oi garden tools and danha roots, put on the green-thumbed canvas gloves which Jessie had given her at Christmas and went out to work in her flower beds, and to talk to Murphy. With the dining room window open, she could hear the phone. At her approach, Murphy opened one black eye. "Don’t you ever .rest ?" Katie put her basket on the grass, sat down beside it, and began to examine the dahlia root* "This is resting. 1 like digging in the ground. Don’t you?” “My gardening,” he drawled, “is done strictly from Witch's.” Katie laughed. "Do they still have those marvelous windows?” "And such'mafveious prices’" “Well, 1 wouldn’t know about that. Did you go to sleep?” "Dozed. I’m going to have to leave you kids the first of the week, Katie, You’ve been grand to me." “It's been good for Fred. He misses having other doctors to talk to. And then, you're friends.” Murpny smiled. "That’s fight," he agreed warmly. “For years and years." “I’ve often wondered why,” said Katie, her pretty face absorbed in the dirt which she was crumbling between her fingers. “Why-we’re frtfends?T “Yea You’re not much alike.” “No, we’re not. But perhaps that’s why the friendship has persisted. Fred and 1 are a great deal like a well-matched married couple, Katie. We bring out the best in each other.” He spoke seriously and honestly. “Fred stirs up what noble instincts I have. And I bring his ideals down to earth enough to make them practical."

Kefauver To Back Harlan Nomination Says Opposition To Harlan Ridiculous WASHINGTON INS) - Sen. Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) said today that if Judge John M. Harlan to unfit to sit on the supreme court because of his Atlantic Union connection, then Vice President Richard M. Nixon and others are unfit for office. Kefauver, one of the leaning advocates of the Atlantic Union committee, denounced as “ridiculous" opposition to Harlan’a appointment because he once was a member of the organisation's national advisory council. Harlan testified he accepted membership on the council and then “forgot it.” He said he never attended a meeting nor did he pay dues and is severing his connection with it. Kefauver declared he will vote to confirm Harlan. NOTICE OS' ADMIXimSATtON Estate Na. «MM3 hi the Adwnua Otrcult Court of Adams. County. Indiana. Notice is hereby wfven that Clyde W.
