Auction School:— The Summer term of Reppert'a nationally famous Auction School opened in Decatur today. Dean of the school, Q. R. Chatfee and President Roland Reppert were on hand to start the embryo auctioneers on the road to success. The three-weeks of intensive training, plus the several books included in the course, have had phenomenal results. More than seventy-five percent of the Reppert graduates have been successful, over the years. The faculty of the Decatur school is second to none in the nation and each summer and winter term turns out an average of 150 auctioneers who return to their communities in every state in the nation and every province of Canada and start high-paying and successful businesses Os their own. The Daily Democrat joins the citizens of Decatnr in welcoming another Reppert class. We invite the visitors to use our city parks and attend our Churches. We also invite the students and faculty members to visit Decatur retail stores where they will find the best values in ' merchandise. We sincerely hope every student enjoys his visit and his work in Decatur. 0 0 Now they are working on the turkey to develop more white meat. Why not do some thing to make the steer produce more Porterhouse steaks? - —-® —— We envy all you fellows who can get out in the fresh air these days and enjoy a vacation. It’s the best medicine you can have and produces more good health than any remedies we know. 0 — Ike says the G.O.P. can remain in power forever if they stand for just what the people want, make no mistakes and don’t “sell out.” In other words if they had wings they could be angels.

Vice-president Nixon seems to be promoting a trip to Russia in October or November. It is to be be a good will journey similar to the one he made to the far Mst a few years ago and the one to Latin America later. Senator Knowland sees some danger in such a trip, especially on the eve of a presidential election. To the average citixen, it sounds like a nice trip for the VP but perhaps a dangerous one. We are not yet convinced of the sincerity of the Soviet nations. o 0 The satelite, which is to cost ten million dollars and circle the world in an hour and a half is a little speedy for us old folks. What will you do with it? Do they figure on making them a little larger, spend a few hundred million bucks and then see if a human can live in such a modern machine? Well it won't be ready for a couple of years so we can breathe easier in these fast moving and fast living days. The vacation season is in full blast and hundreds of Decatur people are on their way or planning to get under full steam soon. Be sure to notice as you drive around the country in every direction, how great is the building boom and how wonderful the progress of industry. This is probably the peak which we have approached the last twenty years. Predictions are that the big boom will go on through the autumn and winter but will probably level Off next spring. 0 0According to the Wall Street Journal, the G.O.P. politicians are seriously planning the admission of Chinese Communists into the United Nations but have put it off because of the coming election and to give China a chance to become “respectable". How will it al Icome out? Maybe some crazy man will touch off a giant atom bomb one of these days and the world will have to start all over again!

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR KERRY was happy enough to feel tolerant even toward Cameron. The sandy-haired rancher greeted him with his usual self-possessed courtesy. “Didn’t- expect to see you back so soon. Not exactly the kind o’ home-cornin’ you expected, I reckon." “I expected worse,” Kerry retorted. “Thought I’d find Broken Spur swarming with fire-;breath-ing nesters with knives in their teeth.” Christie squeezed his arm hard, and he pressed his hand over hers, not caring who saw IL “You’ve got to admit they’ve had some provocation,” Cameron said softly. “Larrabee was a good man.” "He was,” Kerry agreed. "I hope they find the man that shot him.” "Your sheriff doesn't seem to be doing much.” “Hear there’s talk among the nesters about taking the law into their own hands. You heard anything about that?” "They’d hardly tell me, would they?” Cameron shrugged. “I'm a cattleman.” “How are you making out in the cattle business ?” Li_ - Cameron shrugged again. “I’ll get by, I reckon.” He smiled at the girl. “No fault of Christie's if I don’t. She’s helped me all she could.” “Christie’s always ready to lend a neighbor a hand,” Kerry agreed blandly. “By the way v I ran into a friend of yours in Dodge. Fellow named Calder.” ’“That so? I haven’t seen old Lon in years. Hope he’s well.” “He seemed to be in good health last time I saw him,” Kerry replied with a touch of grimness. "He thinks mighty highly of you.” *— “We swung a couple of deals together; back in the old days. We were lucky. Lon always gave me credit" ’I got the idea," Kerry murmured, "the only deals he was interested in were pasteboards.” "He’s turned his hand to a lot o’ things. Heard he'd taken to gamblin’ for a livin’. Too bad,” Cameron sighed. "He was a smart fella. Could’ve amounted to somethin', but he Just couldn’t settle.” “Some men are that way,” Kerry assented gravely. "At least,” Cameron said, "Lon had the sense to stay single. Some of ’em don’t. Don’t know anything much sadder than a woman tied to that kind o’ driftin’ man.” He spoke with a mild, philosophic regret that no one could have called personal, yet Kerry found his tolerance for the man wearing thin. Because he didn’t want to be drawn into an argument on this day, he decided it would be the part of discretion to clear out: so he got up with a word about having work to do.

guest finds it necessary to make a long-distance telephone call, who should pay the charges? A. The guest should immediately call the operator upon completion of the call and ask for the charges.

That brought him a quick smile of approval from Christie, and a look in answer to his "See you soon” that left him, for once, unconcerned at leaving the field to Catneron. There was no talk for some time after he had gone. “You’re looking mighty pretty, Christie,” Cameron said. "Not that there’s anything unusual about that," he added, "but there’s somethin’ special about you today—a sort o’ shine. You can slap my face, if I’m talkin’ oita turn," he smiled apologetically, "but has Riordan cornin’ back got anything to do with that?’’ "Everything to do with it,” she assured him. She wan tied the world to know how she felt. Cameron turned his hat round and round on his knee, studying it with a sober absorption. "Christie,” he said slowly, “I haven’t known you very long, an’ maybe 1 haven’t the right to say it, but in this little while you’ve got to be awful important to me. There isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for you.” “You’ve been a good friend, Wayne," she assured him. “I hope you think so. I hope you think o’ me as a friend that — doesn’t want to see you get hurt” "You think I’m likely to get hurt ? I’m pretty well able to take care of myself, Wayne.” "Sure you are. But you got so much pride, Christie. If you loved a man an’ he let you down—Oh, I reckon I better keep my mouth shut.” “Wayne, for pity's sake, If you’ve got something to say, say it.” ’ “It's not the kind o’ thing a man likes t’ tell about another man, but —Lon Calder, my friend in Dodge City that Riordan was talkin’ about —I had a letter from him lately. He knew Riordan came from around here, an’ he mentioned it thinkin’ I might know him. He was run outa Dodge on account of some row over a saloon girl.” He didn’t remind her of what had happened in Sundown the night before Kerry left home. He didn’t have to. Her pwn mind made the connection, and there was no denying it hit home. Next minute she was ashamed. She’d doubted Kerry once, and, just now found out how wrong she’d been. She wasn't going to doubt him again on the second-hand word of a stranger. “Anything I need to know about Kerry, I’ll get from him." Anger with herself made her voice colder than she’d meant it to be. Cameron’s hands closed around her arms as she started to turn away. “Don’t be mad at me, Christie. You asked me to tell you.” His hands tightened, pulling her toward him. Something demanding

and possessive in his touch irked her, and she made an involuntary movement of withdrawal. “I’m not mad—but I don’t like to be grabbed.” “I’m sorry, honey, but you just don’t know what you do to a man. I’ve been holdin’ myself in a long time now, hopin’ you’d get Riordan outa your blood —” "Well, I haven’t.” Christie’s temper was coming up. In all her twenty-four years, no man had ever put his hands on her against her will. Her strong body stiffened as she tried to pull out of Cameron’s hold. "1 see you haven’t But I’m not goin’ to let you go without tryin’.” The lean handsome face bent down to hers. "Don’t pull away from me, Christie. You like me a little, don't you?” His voice had sunk to a husky, insinuating whisper. "You’re a lot of woman, honey. Don’t try to act like an iceberg.” His lips pressed down on hers, hot and hard and insistent There was no tenderness in his kiss, only desire—and mastery. And Christie Toland had never submitted to being mastered. A white flame of pure rage licked through her body, giving her more strength than she’d known she possessed. In one powerful movement she wrenched herself out of his hands and struck him across the mouth with a force t-hat left a scarlet streak like the mark of a branding iron. Her hand dropped to her side and she stood quivering, shocked by the violence of her own reaction. “I’m sorry, Christie,” Cameron said, low and steadily. “I reckon I had that cornin’. But you can’t blame a man for tryin’.” It was characteristic of the man l that, as he rode back to Trouble Diamond, Wayne Cameron’s anger was directed mostly against himself. For once he had miscalculated. Because he held Kerry Riordan cheaply, he’d underestimated the strength of Christie’s feeling for him —and he’d overrated his own ability to rouse a woman. Perhaps, he admitted, he’d broken his cardinal rule, and let feeling take over his judgment for one minute. He’d always thought Christie a cold woman; today he’d seen his mistake, and that glow had warmed her beauty into something r very desirable. And the idea that a man he despised had been able to kindle that glow in a woman he wanted had teased his male vanity to the point of throwing him off balance. 'Well, that wouldn’t happen again. Nothing in his plans was essentially changed He meant to have Christie, now more surely than ever. Riordar was more of an obstacle than he’e figured—well, obstacles could b< removed.
