We haven’t seen the "sample 88,000 broom" roaming Decatur's streets the last feW days. Add we haven't seen the specifications which the council asked the board of works to prepare. But we re Watching. o -O Boston has a polio epidemic, and a call for nurses has been madfe over the nation. Ninetythree new cases were reported Monday to bring the total to 1.T87 in the state fbr the summer. The Massachusetts General hospital Issued the call for register nurses. 0 o If any of you boys are not get- „ ling a little excited about the American League baseball face, we would advise a trip to your physician to see what’s Wrong. With four (earns battling it out and the leadership changing back and forth almost daily, you are a good guesser if you can pick the winner. The Russian farmers Would like some of out agriculture machinery and some of our livestock but ao far they have declined to offer anything in exchange that we might need or want from their fcouhtry. Any way they have enjoyed a wonderful trip and should realise the advantages of living in America of in a rejuVlhated Russia. 0 0- - Genera Democrats barb fhhonifnated all present cotmcilmdn and the Geneva clerk-treasurer and ♦ill prepare to place these present officials on the election ballot ' this coming November.

aid to tne eastern noon-atneaen states. Loss Wil) total millions and millions of dollars and it will take months of planning and re building. Ameried has recorded one of its most disastrous and itpensive floods. The property damage caa be overcome, but the human lltes lost, ate lost forever. It’s one of those tragedies Which can’t be explained. ♦ 0 Decatur baseball fans are missing aomb great entertainment if they fail to she tie Federation league play-off games between Decatur Klenks and Rockford. O. TlibSe teams play a fine brand of baseball and every seat at Worthman Field is a good seat from a spectator’s viewpoint The two teams are evenly matched and every player plays every innihg as if the World championship Werh at stake. It’d the most for 50 cents that you can get in sports. Next game in Decatur is Sunday afternoon. Mj -P For years the tropical storms have struck at Miami and Key West and have blown ottt before reaching far north, with an occasional dip at the Carolinas. Now thfe weather bureaus along the far south section send out planes to pierce the eye of the tornadoes ahd we Wonder if that has anything to do with the movement of the high winds and if so, why more such stations are hot set up along the eastern coast The answer is probably no but it is queer how this condition has changed. _—o -0— We hope President Bisenhower Add the gbvefhers Os Pennsylvania, Nhw York, New Jersey, Conneticut. Rhode Island and Massachusetts can figure out some means of aiding the communities so badly injured in the flood which came as a climat to the hurricanq. Insurance compartles claim that tew policies protect against floods but when they come as a result of hurricanes we would think it might have to be decided by courts. Be that as it may, the thousands who are suffering there deserve quick help and the Red Cross may not be able to meet the necessities. It lodks like One of the worst disasters this country has ever suffered.

CHAPTER FORTY-ONE THE VOICE that followed was low, level, steel-cold. “So — you thought you’d sell me out!" Wayne Cameron’s voice—Kerry nattily took fa the sense of the words at first, in hiS bewilderment at Ckmefon’s being here at Broken Spur in the middle of the night. Another voice, that he knew, but couldn’t piAce at first, broke into swift, urgent speech. “It was Lita, Wayne—you know 1 wouldn’t cross you! 1 only talked because Mallory gun-whipped me — he’d have killed me—!” “1 AlWays knew you were yellow, Lon," Cameron said dispasslofiately. “You need a gun in your hand to give you guts—Don’t try reaching. One wrong move, an’ ydu get it fight in that pretty face 0’ yours." “I wasn’t going to reach. Why should I?" There was a shrill, womanish note to the gambler’s voice that he couldn’t control. "Wayne, we’re partners, aren’t We? You Wouldn't bold it against me for something 1 couldn’t help!" "1 reckon hot.* Cameron’s answer cAme slow and deliberate. “WS been partners ’cause it paid—not ’cause we loved each other.

Calder was almost babbling in his relief. ‘‘You can get me out of here —there’s plenty of other places we can Wdrk—• "I don’t throw in my hands that easy, Lon." The steel was back in Cameron’s voice. “We stay right here an’ take over Brbken Spur, just like 1 figured." "But Mallory knows—he’s going to talk to the sheriff—” "And suppose he don’t live long enough to talk to the sheriff?” Kerry thought the three in the living-room must have heard the hissing inti kb of his breath. His Hand clinched as if it held the gun he’d left up in his room. He took a step toward the staircase, stoppea at thft sound bf Calder’s avid whisper. How —?’’ "Easy!

was blood on his lips where he’d { bitten them. The lurid light and weird shadows cast by the fire gave the whole business the fantastic quality of a nightmare. And with a cold honesty he admitted to himself that he was scared. He wasn’t a hero, he didn’t want to die. And he didn’t fool himself about the odds he was going np against—two men against one, and that one wounded. But Rob had faced bigger odds for him. The cottonwood grove loomed up black against the reddened sky. His gun was hard and cold in his hand. He drew closer—closer —no yards of ground had ever been so long. Cameron’s low voice hissed, “Hold it you fool!” A gun spat from the trees, and his horse coughed and stumbled. Kerry threw himself to the ground, another bullet grazing him as he went down. The pain to his side as he struck earth left him lying flat for a moment, sick and dizzy. The gun spoke viciously again, but the body of his horse acted as a shield. He raised himself cautiously, flung a shot toward the trees and ducked | down behind the dead animal. I There was a burning in his left arm and blood on his sleeve. He lay there and considered the position. They were safe behind the trees; he couldn’t see what he was aiming at. They had only to wait for him to show himself and make a perfect target, with the fire at nis back. He groaned. There had to be some way to draw them out into the open, if he had the brains to think of it For a moment his mind worked harder than it ever had, .! and came up with something — not good, maybe, but the best he could do. “Calder,” he shouted, “you’re not as good a shot as you think you are! Lita lived long enough to sign a confession. The whole story—it’s in my pocket! Come and get it!” He raised straight up then. Two guns clashed out at the same instant, and he dropped back behind the bulwark of the horse's body, as like a dead man as he could. It wasn’t hard, though cautiously exploring fingers convinced him Calder’s bullet had only creased his | scalp. It hurt, but that didn’t matter if his trick worked. Now dame the tough part, the waiting. Presently, the figure of the gambler emerged from the shadow of the trees. Kerry let hint get close before he pushed himself up. Calder’s gun started to rise, but never got to complete the motion. Kerry’s trigger-finger moved Once, and the other man lurched backward, and lay stilt 1 (To Be CMtimieß)
