Tfee New Center— There to ae'More need tor boys and girls clubs to meet in vacant rooms and garages ta Decatur. Thera la no more need for youth and adult croupe to scarry aroand to Had a gathering place. The people ot Decatur now owe. outright and paid for, a new quarter million dollar Youth and Community Center. It’s our building, lock, stock and barrel. It wm be the focal point of all types ot youth and adult social, educational and recreational activities. It has facilities for meeting, dining, playing and studying and it came to us, like all worthwhile things, after a lot of hard work, mixed in with thrills and disappointments. We, the citisens of Decatur owe an earnest rote of thanks to the industries of Decatur for their financial aid, counsel and physical help in making a dream of half a century come true. Without these great industries there would bo no Youth and Community Center. Equally, we owe to Carl a Pumphrey, the late Arthur Holthouse and presently J. Ward Calland, the three presidents of the Memorial Foundation which raised the money and planned the structure, a commendation of outstanding work well done. The board members also deserve an equal amount of praise for many hours of toll in forming the plans tor our fine addition to Decatur. Hundreds of local citisens joined financially in making the building possible. Labor and members of the Chamber of Commerce helped materially. Yost Construction Co., general contractors, turned the building over to the Foundation on the exact date promised. The City RecreaWon Board, Which wWhale supervision ot the building, has been

McGeath, director, has aided the last several months with counsel and work and he now has a sum mer program ready for everybody, so all of ns can enjoy the result of our efforts. And tomorrow, the big giant structure will be ours, and another milestone in the honorable and progressive history of the greatest little city in the middlewest will have been reached. The building already has become more than a mass of stone, brick and lumber. It ta part of our Community. It is part of everyone of us. It Is living proof of what can bo dene in a community when all bands work toward a goal. It will Immediately take its place along aide of our great Churches, our < splendid schools, our fine parks and our incomparable community as a magnificent symbol of cooperation, love of neighbor and progress. *■ 0-—o We join the people of the community in welcoming to Decatur Sunday, Sen. Homer E. Capehart, Indiana’s senior United States Senator.

0 „ Modern Etiquette I BY ROBERTA LEE a. i 0 6 Q. I have a good friend who’has several faults I should like to correct. How should 1 go about this? A. It would be much better if you overlooked these so-called “faults," and Instead, concentrate on the qualities he possesses that have made him your friend. Perhaps you, too, have “faults”, which this friend has been generous enough to overlook. Q. My husband Is to give a speech before a public gathering soon. Should J join in any applause which might be given at the end of his speech?

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE GARY closed the cabin door behind them, came to her, put his hands on her shoulders, held her a little away from him. “You thought 1 didn’t mean it, when I told you I loved you that day that I asked you to marry ma You saw Cindy in my arms. You’re remembering what Ursula said about my fatal weakness for beauty in women. You don’t want to talk about it, but 1 do! 1 want you more than i I’ve ever wanted anything—l want you with me through all my life. Maybe Tm a fool to think you lave me—but I want you to believe what 1 am saying.** “Gary—yes, I do believe you.” He drew her to him, close. Then his lips came to hers. "You’re trembling, girl! Are you cold?" "No, no! Npt now .. . Not ever again!” He sat her down on the stool. “I want to see you there. I see you there sometimes when you’re not here at the cabin. Don’t move—J’ll get us some food.” He went to the cupboard, got out cheese, bread, coffee. Enid sat very still, not thinking, only feeling, feeling this sudden great happiness that was flooding over her, bringing her alive as she had never felt alive before. The coffee over, Gary came to her. He did not touch her; he stood in front of her, his eyes very sober. “Enid, you’ve talked about wanting to be free—you can be, I won’t try to possess all of you! Just so long as you stick with me . . ." “Gary, I—l feel free, now.” He kissed the top of her head, straightened again. “Another thing —you should know, Enid, what it’ll be like—the kind of a life you will have to live. I'm going on with my painting—and work. I’ve got to make up for these years I’ve wasted. I’ve written to Bressi to find a studio for me. We may have to live in it Not for lack of money— I’ve enough to go on from a trust fund my mother left for me. I’ve been living on an allowance from it while I’ve been here. 1 get dividends from the Mills but I haven’t touched that—it’s to the bank in Salem. We could do very well—spread ourselves — go with the crowd, all that—but I don’t want any of that But maybe you do.” “I don’t!” Enid laughed. She heard her utter happiness making it quick, gay. "I’ve hated it! I thought I was queer, not to enjoy it the way the other girls seemed to. Sometimes I thought 1 didn’t because I was plain and dull.” “Stop talking like that 1 ” said Gary. "You’re beautiful, darling! And you’re honest! Enid, can’t we be married right away? Totnocrow’ We can drive over into Vermont—l’m under the impression we can get married in short order there. We’d stay a few days somewhere, come back and live until Bressi finds something in Boston. Think you could take this for a few weeks?” “I’d love it! To be here with you . . * She threw up her head, then, in

A. It would be better not. This would seem about the same as applauding yourself. Q. When giving an informal dinner. how should the invitations be issued? A. You can do this personally, or by writing brief notes, or by telephone. 0 ¥ u Household Scrapbook | BY ROBERTA LEE | 0 o Overalls Overalls are mqre easily washed if they are stretched out flat on the board and scrubbed with a ; scrubbing brush.

alarm. "Gary, the coffee’s boiling over!" He drove her back to the farm, late in the afternoon. “Tomorrow ?’’ I’ll come lor you around noon. We’ll have lunch at that joint down there. It’d be as good as an announcement!” He looked beyond her to the bouse. “You’re not—afraid, are you, my. dearest?" “Os my mother? Na" She felt no dread, no shrinking, as she went swiftly up the short path to the door of the north wing. As she went into the living-room she heard her mother moving in the bedroom. She went to the bedroom. At the door she stopped short. Her mother’s bags were on the bed open. Her mother was taking dresses down from the hooks behind the cretonne curtain with a blind heedlessness. She turned at Enid's step and Enid saw her mother’s face drained of color, an awful blankness in her eyes. “What are you doing, mother?” Hester looked at her as if she did not see her. “Packing. I have to go back to Buffala At once..." Her voice had something of the blankness that was in her eyes. “What has happened?” "Nothing yet. That is why I must go immediately." “Father—is he ill?” “DI ?" repeated Hester. She picked up a letter that lay on the bed. Enid noticed how her hand shook as she did so. “Read it!" Enid drew back a step. “Not if it’s from Mrs. Babbitt!” "It’s from—my husband.” Enid read: “Dear Hester: “Two weeks ago I was offered a position in the head office of the company in San Francisco. I nave written and said I would accept it, for such a move fits in with a decision I have reached during the summer. That is that you and I should live separate lives. I have thought for a long time that you do not need me for more than to provide you with a good living—which provision will continue. Enid is grown now, ready to make her own life. “You may wish to go further and get a decree of divorce. That is for you to decide. There ta no other woman in my mind, only the conviction that you and L in straining towards goals of social and financial success, have missed much in life that is worth more—a companionship between us such as we had when we were first married. I’d like to experience the enjoyments in a simpler, less complicated way of living. I doubt you would share my feeling about that, so I hesitate to ask you to take up with me this change 1 contemplate. In the event that you do not return before October first when I have to be in San Francisco, Drew will take care of the necessary legal steps.” Enid looked up from the letter. She said, simply, "Why don't you let him go, mother?” .... Hester got to her feet, a spasm working the muscles around her mouth. “Go? When I’ve lived with

Joseph (Reinhart, 63, of Kirkland township, died this morning. The 82-acre farm of Ezra Reber in Kirkland township sold to Joe Brunnegratf for S6O per acre. Lloyd Cowens elected president of the, Decatur Lions club and W. L. Beery, vice-president. The annual state convention of the Grand Army of the Republic is being held at Marion. ... J ® Savings Bond Sales Increase In County T. F. Graliker, chairman of Adorns county's U. S. savings bonds committee, has been advised that the county’s savings bonds sales for May were $80,461 as compared Sith $49,516 for the corresponding Iriod of 1954. Sales for the state as a whole were $13,292,498 and $f0.782.561 for May of last year—a gain of more than 23 percent Wxty-four of Indiana's 92 counties recorded sales gains for the month. Indiana continues to lead the nation as a whole in the percentage of increase in savings bonds sales. Last month a national sales gain of 19 percent was registered as against Indiana's gain of 23 percent. A continuing trend of heavy sales throughout the state will enable Indiana to meet its quota of $169,400,000 in-sales for the year.

nlm, for him, 23 years? Made a lovely borne for. him, the right kind of friends—given all my thoughts to his Interests ? I don’t know what he means!" Suddenly Enid felt sick with compassion. If her mother only could see herself! She said: ’“Mother, maybe -n 41, You let dad plan things—.do the things be wants to do — you've been with him just as you’ve always been with me — you never gave me any choice—you decided for me everything that 1 did. And it always was what you wanted—you never asked ma Father feels, I think, the way I did.” “Are you saying that I am a selfish, self-centered, self-seeking woman?" Hester asked. Enid could not say it, or deny IL With a sound like a moan, Hester covered her face. Enid did not know whether it was to hide tears or anger. After a moment, Hester let her hands fall. Enid saw only bewilderment on her faca And Enid never had seen her mother bewildered over anything. When she spoke it was mechanically. “This is between your father and me—you will have to stay here until 1 send you word that it is settled. Jennie will be here. I’ll leave a cheque for you.” She picked up another dress to smooth it out. Tell ner about Gary. And now Enid shrank from it; it would be shock on shock for her mother. But she did say it. "I’m going to marry Gary Norbeck, mother.” The dress slipped from Hester’s hands. Her Ups worked but no sdund came from them for a moment Then she said, tn a choked voice, “If L your mother, tried to stop you from throwing yourself away on such a fellow, I d be selfish— thinking of myself! But, remember, remember, whatever happens, I did not plan that for you! Please go. now, and leave me alone to finish this.” • Wick had a legal scatter to taka care of in Malone, which under the stress of the last few days he had put aside. He decided as he walked out of Mrs. Plebby’s after some lunch that it was high time the papers and drive over there, put his hand on something that had nothing to do with any of old Josh's kin! But, out on the sidewalk, he saw Jennie coming toward him. He quickened his step, his hand out before he reached her. “Jennie! Good to see you!" Then be noticed with concern that she looked pale and very tired. It must be tor something more than Cindy’s going. “Come on up to my office," he said. “I came to—talk to you! 1 always do!” . - In bls office, when they were seated, he said, “Now what?" "Hester’s gone” A note of finality in her voice made him stare at her incredulously. (To Be Continued}
