All you have to do is visit the Decatur stores and compare with stores in any town or city around hfere. We know yon'll become a Decatur shopper if ytiii compare. v _X._ — Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago has asked those in charge of thd sale of the site where the barn stood in which Mrs. O'Leafy’s cow kicked over the lantefn and started the fire which destroyed much of the city in 1871 to. refrain from selling it Os course it made the Windy City, so the site with all its traditions Is to be retained for the erection of a memorial tb the cow. And the mayor is asking tor suggestions of the proper action. The site lies Just west of the Loop. 0 0 Former President Truman is making some red hot statements about the administration of his successor. Thbre is no reply by the president but his secretary who sonietltne speaks for him has said No body to Truman any more.” That sounds like the arguments used by the OOF in 1948 when Mr. Truman was making speeches through the country white Governor Dewey, his opponent, was picking out his rooms at the White House. 0 Ai— Baseball and football will be on the program this fall for the two high schools in Decatur, the Catholic high school Commodores have a seven-game baseball schedule and the Decatur high school

Yellow jackets have an eight game football schedule. Then will come the favorite, basketball, and every high school in the county will field a basketball team with hopes of winning the sectional title next spring. Everything points to another interesting basketball scramble in Adams county again this year and that is the way the fans like it. Mayor Doan will issue a proclamation this week setting September 7 as School's Open Day. In connection with the proclamation, the Mayor plans to stress the im- | portance of safety. Safety is Important the year 'round, but it ( is most important during the kchool months because of the number of children using the street crossings. Decatur has been .... fortunate in its program for children’s safety, largely because the people of the community are safe-ty-conscioiis and the school and police officials are constantly reminding both us and the children of the grave dangers of carelessness. Let's all work again this year for a safe city and be extra careful when driving near the school buildings. ——o—ol— Labor leaders of the Cereal Workers, CIO and Ministers pf Decatur Churches joined together ( in a luncheon meeting at the Youth and Community Center Tuesday noon. The laboring men, headed by Albert Tinkham. 1 Wayne Peterson and Kenneth Hirschy, sat beside and conversed with ministers of all denominations. It was a most interesting event and certainly one over which we should all be happy". Earning a livlihood and being a servant of God are the two most important factors in our life today. The two should be joined together as one purpose and informal meetings like the Tuesday affair are a wonderful approach to a Single understanding. The guest speaker. Rev. Charles Weber possesses a world of experience both as a Methodist Minister and a Labor leader. Such happy occasions are constant proof to us that Decatur is the finest community in the world.

B—« 11 ■■■-———ft • County Agent's Column 0 1 Dairy Products Dairy farmers of the Hoosier state are conducting an allout program at the fhdiaaa state fair. August 81 through September 9, to acquaint the consuming public with the goodness of milk and its products. Thb entire building formerly occupied by the Indiana Farm Bureau is being devoted to an 80-foot dairy bar, tables and chair* special dairy displays and decorations sponsored by the American dairy association of Indiana. All the ice cold milk you can drink for a dime is a feature attraction in the first dairy products building at the fair. Other products served at the dairy bar include: grilled cheddar cheese sandwiches. Swiss are serving the dairy dishes, sundaes, all at reasonable prices. A group of costumed "Milk Maids" are serving the dairry dishes. “Dairying is the most Important source of farm income in the state of Indiana.'’ declares Oscar Swank, executive secretary of the American dairy association of Indiana. “The dairy bar and its displays demonstrate the story of dairy farmers strengthening markets for dairy products through the salesetimulating program of their own American dairy asociation. Cash income from the sale of milk on farms and dairy cattle for beef and veal in Indiana totals more than a quarter blllipn dollars annually. Exhibits in the American dairy association building point out the following production facts for one year in Indiana: total milk 3,783,000.000 lbs., 11th highest in nation; 32,615,000 lbs., of cheddar cheese, Bth in nation;. 38,001,000 of butter, 12th in the nation: 20,739,000 gal. of ice cream; 23,227000 lbs. of cottage cheese: 90,290,000 lbs of evaporated milk. 9th in the nation; and 33.131,000 lbs. of dry milk, 6th in nation. "Displays also show that through the American dairy association program, the dairy farmers of Indiana and the nation are using to? advertising and merchandising media to get the story of dairy products to the consuming publid*. . . sponsoring the Disneyland and Lone Ranger shows on television; full color ads in leading national magazines such as Look.

BYNOFBIS The post-war housing shortage in Kennedy, Missouri, had induced the nearly wed Lairds. Adam and Ann, to engage in a home building business there. Adam, an experienced carpenter, had served with the Seabees during the war; Ann had been a secretary at the local lumber milL So, bravely, these Lairds pooled their knowledge, formed a partnership of-sorts and set forth to build homes for the people of Kennedy. But they made the mistake of flrst of all building a home for themselves. Need of cash tor the business soon forced the sale of that oome, Ann's "dream” house, a move which left her sullen, and rebellious. And unhappy in the email apartment where the Lairds now lived. But Ann escat, -i its boredom daily, by donating her services to the hospital. Here she enjoyed her association with Dr Alex ander. a mature and married man of great charm. _ CHAPTER FOUR ANN walked steadily away from her brother, her head up. Her feelings were mixed. She was more thoughtful than annoyed. She understood the love which had inspired Wendel’B warning, but something he had said — All along, ever since Adam had sold her house, Ann had been hurt and resentful, yet she somehow continued to believe that she really came first with Adam. But if others considered her mistreated —well —maybe she was. Anyway, that idea was something to think abput She did think about it, too, and her thinking governed the manner in which she mentioned the party to Adam. "1 don’t suppose you’ll have time to go," she concluded. He turned his head sharply to look at her. "Don’t you want me to go?” "I told you that Dr. Alexander is giving a party for the people who work for the blood bank. I said we were invited. .But 1 never know about you—you’re busy so much of the time. Sunday mornings, and fill.”’: "Gosh sakes, Ann, what’s got into you?” "Nothing’s got into me. I go to church as regularly as always." She set his dessert before him, and took her chair. "Os course, now, I often go alone.” "We had that fight list Sunday," said Adam tightly. Ahn said nothing, but she put down her fork. "1 don’t kifow why a woman can’t say her say and quit," Adam fumed, eating his pie in great gulps. "I’m sorry,” said Ahn, not sound- . ing at all sorry. Adam finished his pie, jerked to his feet and went into the living room, where he turned on the i radio. Ann washed the dishes, powdered her face and joined him. 1 "Want to go to a show?” he asked. "I don’t think so.” "Still mdd?” 1 “I'm not mad, Adam." i “All right, if you say so. What ■bout that party? When is it?” i "Next Thursday evening. It's a I Mrbccus supper.” «. Copyrifilit. 19jL bv .

It is pointed out that this program is made possible by the voluntary support of dairy farmers across the nation at the rate of 2 cents per 100 lbs. of milk.

"Do 1 have to wear a tie?" - Ann laughed. "It isn’t formal." Adam sat looking at her. What got into both of them? A year ago, he wild have thought her cute, to say such a thing, glow it sounded titter—and catty. "Is it a big party?” he asked cautiously. "About twenty, at least. Everyone who helps at the bank —the doctors, the nurses, the technician —and their wives, husbands or boy-friends. It’s to be at the Alexanders’, at six.” “I’ll take you. Maybe this is the week 1 ought io talk to Wendel about that car I’ve been buying for a year.” “Don’t worry about that, Adam,” she said quickly. “I’d just as soon ride in the pick-up.” That sounded like his old Ann. "I’ll take the ladders off,” he promised. The party meant a lot to Ann. It would be her first sight of Dr. Alexander's horn®, except from the street. She wondered what sort of hostess his Mary would make—how she would dress. Ann was very particular about het own hair and grooming that evening, and she waited until Adam was home, and ready to go, before she put on her dress, lest its flaring skirt become crushed and wrinkled. Adam was on time, and he had been right to object to wearing "formal" clothes. His pale gray shirt, his shade-darker gabardine slacks, the dark blue jacket, were exactly right on him. Tall, graceful, young, he’d easily be the best-looking man at the party. Ann could take pride in that. Even Dr. Alexander, nice as he was, already -had a too-Jpgh forejiead. Van Sant’s boy-friend was positively ancient! • With asthma.', besides. She caught up a yellow sweater, in case the evening should turn cool—her white dress had no sleeves —and came out to the living room. Adam looked her over appreciatively. "Very nice!” She smiled at him, and went to the door. Adam’s hand was still on the doorknob when the phone rang. He turned back to answer, and she went on down, got into the truck and waited. It was ten minutes before he came out, put the key in and drove 1 down the street. His eyebrows were knit in a frown. At the corner—" Alexanders live on Market,” she murmured. 1 "Yeah. I have to go past Horton's." ' "Not toni</ht! n 1 "It won’t taki a minute. We have time—these things never ’ start promptly.” Ann’s wrist watch said exactly * six.

0-; <* Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE I 0 - 0 Q. What form should a' bride and bridegroom use when extending invitations to a reception, after they have returned from their honeymoon? A; They may either mail the engraved kind of invitations, or if the affair is to be an informal one, they may telephone their invitations. Q. How should gifts received during an illness be acknowledged? A. If the patient is too ill to acknowledge the gifts immediately, notes of thanks should be written as soon after recovery as possible. Q. Should all the women be Served first at the dining table, 'where men and women are seated alternately? A. This would be a foolish waste of time. The guests should be served In regular sequence, whether man or 'woman.
tor job tomorrow.” She glanced at Adam and saw that his jaw was set. "Are you going to get into a fight this evening?” she demanded. "I’ll have a bit of arguing to do. 1 won't fight Horton’s bigger’n I am.” "What kind of mess are you in now ?’’ He whirled the truck into the jock road—the dusty road —where the uiiion agent Uvea bn his threeacre "farm.” “You sound as if I got into a lot of messes.” “Adam —” "It’s nothing, Ann. I’m building that elevator at the mill. That is, I’m doing the construction. The elevator company .brought its own gang to put in the machinery—and Horton's on my neck. I have to talk him out of picketing that job, and my other ones. He could have everything I’m doing at a dead stop.” He slammed the car door, and went up on the porch of the little frame house, ducking his head as he went in thrbugh the front door. Ann sat in the truck and waited; she could feci the wrinkles growing in her skirt. It was hot and her make-up was melting—she could feel that, too. Her hair clung to her cheeks. She was tempted to sound the horn, but did not. Adam was inside for a halfhour, and came out with an apology on his lips. “Let’s get going,” said Ann, coldly. “We’re late enough.” “It was important, Ann,” he attempted, as he turned into the road. ’•‘l'm used to that, too,” she said' stiffly. “1 know your work’s important—and that <1 am not." “For gosh sakes, Ann!” cried Adam. She didn’t, he thought resentfully, care„epough to ask how he’d Come out with Horton. They were probably the' last to arrive. Adam had to park his car a good distance from the house, and walking With Ann along the sidewalk, he ventured to suggest that it wasn’t good manners to carry a peeve to a party. . "Don’t you tell me how to behave, Adam Laird!” she cried furiously. "I know, honey, but you’re wearing icicles a foot long. They show!” "I’ll do all right See that you do the same.” She did do all right, once she was among the others. "We had to build an elevator,” she gaily excused their tardiness. "And you’d be surprised!" drawled Adam, “how much it resembles a doghouse!” Everyone laughed, Aim with them. He knew half the gueses, and quitkly made friends with the others. He and Ann filled their plates and found chairs. (To be continued) i u . Features Si ndicAt*.
