Several Decatur sidewalks could be improved. Please remember that a lot ot folks still use them occasionally. ——o 0 Congress nas had a difficult time breaking loose but it seems to have finally succeeded. The president is threatening to call an extra session to complete his program of "musts.” 0 0 The Chicago White Sox may be "pests” but they are sure continuing to pester the "big" leaders. Just now they are out in front by a full game and apparently trying their best to continue their march. 0 0 We ntlll believe in this mnsk-mellon season of the year, when the extreme heat makes it very important garbage be cared for that some how we ought to work out a plan for gathering it more than once a week. 0 0 Now that the United States scientific genius has agreed to work out a “flying basketball” to race around the world in an hour or two, Russia and other nations not to be outdone are also working on the idea. We don’t know what for but we can soon be looking for them. And it may be more exciting than was the scramble sor 1 “saucers.” | q -p Why should Harold E. Talbott be allowed to use his job as civilian chief of the Air Force to aid him in his private affairs? Os course when the heat was poured on he resigned under the pressure but, that doesn’t exactly clear things up, we understand. 0 o The* Maryland husband who e "spiked” his wife’s prune juice failed to commit the perfect crime. The smart lady didn't like the looks of it so she took it along to work and turned it over to the chemists who found it contained 75% arsenic. The judge placed the husband under heavy bond. 0 0 Do you know why Gary and Lake county always go Democratic. They have 100 organizations there to cover every known nationality and explain problems

to them. There are fifty for men and fifty for women and they don't just talk about it but they work, really work and see the voters not once or twice in a campaign but as many times as is possible. If the state was as well organised we would have a different story when it comes time to report election results. * (X 0 White House expenses must be budgeted too and that big job is under the direction of Mrs. Eisenhower at this time. Os course she has a little assistance as the cooks, butlers, and housekeepers, thirty-four of them, draw a total of more than >IOO,OOO per year. Then there are the plumbers and electricians and carpenters who cost 1147,000 per year, making it quite an institution and one in Which there could be some occasional leaks unless carefully watched. 0 0 One of the most serious difficulties for the future of this country is water. We are running out of it and at this time of the year we always recognize that fact. President Eisenhower has a cabinet committee working on it. So far they have not reported anything of consequence except along the coast lines or at a few inland lakes. They suggest desalting water where it is needed but that doesn’t reach the midwest or other parts of the nation and it is quite expensive. It's something to really worry about if you are so inclined. —0 0— . The county highway department has ‘suffered a severe loss in the resignation of Frank Singleton. superintendent The hard working and popular county official has yielded to a more lucrative offer with Meshberger Stone Co. Singleton has not only been an able administrator, but he has demonstrated to his men what a day’s work should consist of. He has accepted the small amount ot money sent to Adams county by the state each year for highway use and has stretched that money into our fine system of roads, second to none in northern Indiana. The Daily Democrat wishes Mr. Singleton continued success in his new undertaking.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE AS CAMERON approaced his own house, be saw a lamp burn»b r. He neared the window softly dll he couid look through without *eing observed. What he saw satisfed him. He put up his horse and wett*. iv. A nai* lose to greet him —a man with gTt oii eyes and a scarred face, who*Br u,ill-dusty clothes sat with an isx«v.g r uous elegance on his lenz bocy “Hello. Lon,” Cameron said quietly. ‘‘Wasn't expectin’ you so soon.” The gambler grinned. “W hen you’ve got a game to play, why wait?” ‘‘Anybody see you come in here?” ‘‘l don’t think so. What does it matter if they did? Nobody around here knows me.” “That's what you think. Riordan’s here —and the redhead.” "Good.” The gree- eyes glittered, and the long white gambler’s hand moved uncons"’ously toward Calder’s gun-belt. “1 slipped up once, but I won’t again.” “Take it easy, Lon.” Cameron's voice was soft, but it carried command. "1 got this thing all set up. You’re not goin’ to spoil it rushin' in too soon,” “All right, but when the time comes, remember, the redhead’s mine, nobody else’s." “AU right, all right” Cameron soothed him as he might have calmed a fractious child; then he gave way to mild impatience. “But remember, this is the biggest thing we ever pulled off. If it goes right, we'll neither of us have anything to worry about as long as we live. So don’t be goin’ oft half-cocked just because some puncher beat your time with a dance-hall girl. No woman’s worth it.” For a moment the gambler’s eyes looked dangerous, but Cameron faced him down steadily. He’d always been able to handle Calder: that was why their partnership had lasted. Calder relaxed and grinned again. “You always were a coldblooded proposition, Wayne. How you making out with your girl?" “All right,” Cameron said shortly. "She doesn’t know it yet, but she'll come around in time.” "In time! Wayne, you’re losing your touch. I expected to find-you married by now.” “This isn’t Lita,” Camcron retorted. “This girl's smart, I’ve got to go slow. That was always your trouble, Lon, wantin’ to rush things. Look what happened in Dodge. It was a goofi enough scheme, but you didn't take time to plug up the loop-holes.” "1 suppose you think if you'd :<een there they wouldn’t' have got awt.

0 0 I Household Scrapbook | BY ROBERTA LEE t Hot Summer Nights If no air seems to be stirring in the bedroom on hot nights, try iwrnging a sheet out of cold wiiter and hanging it before the window of the bedroom. The atmosphere will be wonderfully freshened. Perspiration Stains Perspiration stains on garments can usually be removed by mixing one part of oxalic acid to twenty parts of water and applying with a small brush.

on slapped his partner’s sKOulder. “We’re a good team, Lon—your gun an' my plannin’. Don’t worry —there’ll be plenty for you to do before we’re finished.” “Well, anyway,” Calder was still eager to justify himself, “even if those two did give me the slip, I settled their hash in Dodge. If they ever live to get back there, theylll walk right into a rope.” “Yeah?" “Yeah. Old Wharton’s offered five thousand apiece for them.” The gambler dug into his pocket and pulled out two crumpled reward dodgers. "Here!” Cameron thrust out a hand. “Let me see those.” Calder handed them over reluctantly. “Not thinking about turning them over to the law, are you? Os course the money’d come sin handy, but it’d be worth my share to have the fun of settling with Baines personally." “Get it through your head,” Cameron ordered impatiently, “with the stakes we’re playin’ for, five thousand is chicken-fced. But these may come in handy to get Riordan out of the way—if my other idea doesn’t work.” “I thought you figured Riordan wasn’t important.” Calder’s long white finger tapped the dodger. “I only worked him into this business because he played right into my hands.” “He’s gettin’ important,” Cameron grunted, "He’s a fly-by-night fool, but he could mess things up. We got to get rid o’ him—an’ we got to light a fire under these nesters. I thought Larrabee’s killin’ ‘d do it, but they’re scared. An’ I got an idea,” he smiled, "that just might kill both birds. You lie low tonight, Lon. I’m goin’ to ride over an’ pay Lita a visit I owe her." • • • Rusty was riding his second day's patrol Nothing at all had happened to disturb or to enliven iU The redhead whistled Strawberry Roan, ran his appreciative cowman's eye over die rich short grass, and thought about Margie. There was a woman for you. Maybe one of these days he ought to marry her ano settle down and raise half a dozen redheaded kids. A horse and rider were approaching from the direction of the nestcr settlement. Rusty straightened, is hand going toward his gun; then, on a* better view; he relaxed. It didn’J seem likely that trouble would be coming in such a broken-down shape. The horse was a mangy, sham-bling-gaited rack of bones, and the rider matched it like a twin. A lank old scarecrow who rode slumped forward, chai on his dirty blue shirt fronL “Howdy," the old man wheezed. •Cn you tell tne where I’d fin’ Kerry Riordan?” *You'd have a long ride,” Rusty

to a good friend’ who was very thoughtful at the time of one's bereavement? A. Just by very simple and sincere, as, "When Mother passed away, you were very kind, Mrs. Barnes, and I want to thank you. Come to see me when you find time.” Q. Are the best man and the ushers supposed to stand in the receiving line at the wedding reception? A. No; the bride and bridegroom, maid ot honor, and the bridesmaids are only ones who stand in the receiving line. Q. When a girl stenographer is being introduced to a man in an office, should she rise? A. No; this is not required. Court News Marriage Licenses Wilmer Gene Miller ,23, Decatur route five, and Helen L. Harshman, 19, Decatur route five. William Ballenger, 19, Marion, 0., and Faith M.

S’import- ' ant,” the scarecrow insisted. “I’ll be seein’ him tonight J could give it to him if you want." The old man squinted at Rusty with suspicious, watery “eyes, then fumbled in the pocket of the I ragged jeans and brought out a crumpled scrap of dirty paper. “Don' you be losin’ it, young feller, you hear?” He handed it over with a shaky hand, kicked his ■ horse into reluctant action, and rode off. As Rusty tucked the paper intc | his breast-pocket, he couldn’t help • noticing that the sprawling writ- i ; ing was a woman’s. He shook his head in mild disapproval. He'd ' never known any good to come of a man’s mixing his women—but that was Kerry’s business. Kerry got back from Slash I barely in time for supper, and it wasn’t till afterward that Rusty had a chance to slip him the note. It was brief and to the point “Kerry honey, I just got to see you. Please come tomorrow after- | ' noon about three. I’ll be alone then. Please come, Lita.” i The second “please” was underlined with a heavy stroke of the pencil. Kerry scowled. He didn’t want to see Lita. His flirtation, or ■ whatever you wanted to call it, with her, was part of the foolish1 ness he’d put behind him, and he hated to be reminded of it. It I seemed cheap now, a shabby sort of infidelity to Christie. But in the fullness of his happiness he didn’t want to hurt anyone. Just to ignore Eita’s appeal would be like a slap >n the face. And maybe she was in some kind I of trouble, turning to him for help. I He’d have to go, he decided, just i to explain to her as kindly as he could that he wouldn’t be seeing i her any more. There were eyes watching him • from the cottonwoods as he rode • up to the Dawson shack. As soon i as the door was safely closed be--1 hind him. Corny scrambled onto . his horse and rode, as fast as the old rack of bones would carry ’ him, for Double Diamond. ’ Calder sat at the table, dealing • out poker hands with swift, rest- ■ less fingers. He looked up with a i flicker of scornful ar. usement in his green eyes at the shambling . figure grinning in the doorway, and looked down at his cards : again. ‘ Well?" Cameron snapped. "He come awright,” Corny an- • nounccd. “And Larrabee?" "He'll be there. You c'n count on my gal.” Corny continued to grin expectantly. • (To £e Continued)
