Don’t forget the Community Fund drive now in progress in Decatur. The money raised by the campaign each year is divided among eight organisations and la their only means of operation. o o— We may not like this rainy, chilly weather, but it's pretty nice compared with part of the nation which have been flooded and blown to pieces by tornadoes. In spite of such things as the Doanduster, we will still pick Decatur as the garden spot of the world. The annual Girl Scout round-up for all Decatur members of that organization is scheduled for next Saturday, It has been announced. The party is given each year by the group which has charge of this fine young girls* organization. The event will be staged at the Youth and Community Center. o o—• With winter just around the corner, Mr. and Mrs. Decatur, you’re going to pay *SO a day rental for a street sweeper all daring November and December. No fog light and no safety belt, just a plain faced ordinary automatic broom. Now there is an example of good sound business, continued progress, if you please. o o Spiritual Emphasis week is scheduled for Sunday October 30 to and including Sunday night November 6. No service will be held Monday night, October 31, but with that exception there will be public services each night at Zion Evangelical and Reformed church.

Indications are now that the new Northwest Elementary school in Decatur will be ready for occupancy before the Thanksgiving holiday. The new building which will house pupils from kindergarten through the sixth grade will be a greatly needed and splendid improvement to our public school system. Rooms have been crowded for several years and the Northwest building only partly solves the problem. Plans are underway for construction of a similar building in the south part of Decatur. When the proAX4SLwill bid well to have one of the finest school systems in Indiana. o oH— More than 1,300 Adams county children have recently received patch-tests for tuberculosis under supervision of the Adams county Tuberculosis Association. Os those tested there were 18 positive reactions, and in all probability these reactions will be corrected before the disease develops. That is the purpose of the tests; to stop tuberculosis before it starts. It is a great service made possible through the Association because Adams county people buy Christmas Seals. Thus, the pennies you spend on Christmas Seals, may have been directly responsible for the saving of a life. o o The Decatur board of works, composed of the third term candidate for mayor and two other Republicans, has signed a lease-pur-chase contract for an automatic broom, subject to final approval by the council. The contract calls for the city pay rental during November and December of *3,000. Broken down, that is *SO a day fscjrenW of broom which irpifr marily for summer use. Then for the next 18-months the city will pay *283.05 a month and at- the end of that time the city has the right to buy the broom for *I.OO. It is highly probable that the Council will approve the contract, which go down in the history of the present administration as one of the greatest achievements since the payment in advance of over half the cost of the million dollar diesel plant, which still has not been accepted by the City. There folks, you have one of the greatest lessons in third-term economy.

CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR ADAM got back into the truck, and whirled it away from the sidewalk where, for all he cared, the girl in white shorts and blue halter still stood trembling with anger. At the corner, he had to fight .the -Wheel. U> JwHL the car- against the windc; he should getundcr'Sheiter for this one. He’d not attempt to drive home. Anyway, he was in entirely too edgy a state to talk decently to Wendel about anything —not that Pinky had any real grounds for assuming that his brother-in-law — No, he’d get leveled out a bit before tackling Ann's family. He parked, and strode across the sidewalk to a cantina, went in and found a small booth empty. The place smelled like the devil, racketed with talk, juke box music, the ping of a busy pin-ball machine. But maybe here Adam could think. Pinky had made one sensible suggestion, that he talk to Isler. Without her knowing it, Isler had already asked him to consider the California job, and Adam had promised to think over the proposition. If Adam could locate him —after the storm abated, of course—he would have a natural opening for mention of his personal problems, and—with due allowance for the fact that Isler wanted him to take the job at Cal Tech—Adam could count on the scientist, a man in his fifties and a very nice guy, to survey his situation dispassionately, and offer the only sort of comment or advice that Adam would listen to. It was a real disappointment not to be able to locate Dr. Isler that evening. Adam made the rounds of his jobs, checked on possible damage, and finally, like a schoolboy dragging his feet on the way to the woodshed, he turned the pick-up toward the canyon. At the first sign of the approaching storm, Ann had taken her family home. She’d left windows open, and, anyway, home was the best place to be in a storm. Wendel, of course, reminded her that "the weather was always nice in New Mexico"; she was too busy to mind, closing every opening, the ventilator fan in the kitchen, laying folded towels against the window and door sills—and, even then, the sand came in, to lie in small, ridged heaps upon the floor, to spread In a fine dust over every surface, even —the —dishes in —the cupboards. When Ann advised Wendel to rinse a glass before using it, he said something sarcastic about a new house being supposedly weather tight. And Ann, like any housekeeper who has got her house shining for company and then sees it reduced to a sand pile—Ann flared up in defense of Adam, his building skill and his general character. "Oh, it takes a good man,” agreed her brother sardonically, "to collect things like that redheaded number. I must ask him what his system is." “Wendel!” protested his wife, y “I’ll ask you just one favor,” Mid Ajw, tensely. "Please doat

on a farm near Kansas City are being used by agricultural •scientists at Kansas State College seeking a cure for soil-borne wheat mosaic. The plants showed severe green mosaic symptoms and plants from their seed continued the symptoms when infected In green-hou*' laboratories.

Farm-City Week Will Be Marked Oct. 23-29 WASHINGTON (INS) —This Saturday, agriculture secretary Ezra Taft Benson will be host at a "kick off” luncheon for national farm city week to be celebzated Oct. 23 through Oct. 29. — Foods to be served will .be new ; types developed through research

speak a word to Adam about Pinky.” "My Lord, child . . .” “Just don’t meddle,” said Ann. “That’s all you need to remember. Tend to your own business, and let Adam and me attend to ours.” . . Wpndcl shrugged. "QJS» *R I.know,- you’retwo-timing him’”' Ann considered that beneath notice, and went on about her preparations for dinner. They’d not wait for Adam. He’d have his jobs k to check on after a storm of that violence. “At least, that’s what he’ll tell you,” said Wendel. "I’d almost like to stay and listen, but I’ve been thinking, Ann —the storm’s over; I think we’d better go back to Albuquerque tonight, so we can get an early start west in the morning." They finished dinner hurriedly and left. When Adam turned the truck into the canyon road, night was falling purple into the valleys, moonlight lay silver upon the peaks. He left his truck in the drive and shouldering a sizable chip, he entered the house through the lower level office. He knew that chip was there; he was all set to tell Wendel a thing or two —and Ann, as well, if it should be necessary! The living room was shadowy, lit only by the last flare of the sunset. Ann was moving about in the shining bright kitchen; she wore a thin white dress, the skirt full about her pretty ankles. Her hair was tied back from her face with a ribbon. The house was quiet and clean, and on the kitchen counter Ann had set out dishes for his dinner. He came through into the light, still looking about. No guests were anywhere in evidence. Ann smiled at him. "Would you like to shower before you eat?” He scraped his thumbnail down over the grit on his cheek, nodded and ducked back through the big living room; she had clean clothes laid out for him. He sighed. It was only when he was trying to decide if he should eat more chicken or “save myself for that pie," that Ann mentioned Wendel and his family. She told of their day. The sandstorm, she said, had scared them off. They wouldn't even wait until Adam came home. “It was quite a storm,” said Adam. “Yes, but—Ann laughed a little. "He’s the kind of tourist who starts out determined not to see anything better than can be seen home.” “Wonder why he bothers.” Ann chattered a little about the children; she’d bought them some Indian shoes—they’d wanted a Santo, “but I told them that those were not dolls." “And cost a mint,” laughed Adam. Ann filled his coffee cup anew, and slid into a seat across from him. "Adam,” she said, m a tone so casual as to sound almost indifferent, "could you get away next weekend? I’d like to go down to, Albuquerque.” “I guess I could manage that. What for?”

I Indianapolis Woman Is Suicide Victim INDIANAPOLIS (INS) —Police said today that suicide was indicated in the death of the wife of an International Typographical Union official in Indianapolis Tuesday. Mrs. Franz Norelius, 48. w,ife of the union’s assistant secretarytreasurer, was found in the bathroom of their home with a single bullet wound in the temple. Chicago — About 75 percent of the current consumption of gasoline is used to move ordinary traffic along America s paved city streets and the network of intercity highways.

"They have a marriage counselor down at the University. I’d like —both of us —to talk to him.” Adam’s very blue eyes studied her round, pretty face. She met iris gaze bravely, and honestly. "There’s no use fooling ourselves, Adam," she said quietly,.. “We need some help. -1 knew •‘Thifr whetT I' saw Pinky sitting in your truck this noon." Red flared into his cheeks. "I— Listen to me, Annl" "It doesn’t matter, Adam, how or why she was there. I know you’ve tried hard to clear up that —trouble. And I’ve tried. But it hasn’t been good enough, Adam! It isn’t cleared up, and that’s why I think we need outside help. We might talk the whole thing out to each other—you know? Completely honest, completely frank. But I’m afraid ..." “That we’d get emotional?” “Yes, or hurt each other. Be hurt.” "Or get mad—" His smile was sweet. He was greatly pleased with Ann. After what he’d expected to find in his. home tonight —his initial relief at discovering her alone had made him vulnerable to this, or any, suggestion. But what really pleased him was that he enjoyed being vulnerable! . “Even if we didn’t get mad,” she was saying earnestly, "we don’t seem to know enough — I don’t, anyway—to be sure we’re able to analyze the situation correctly, or make plans we’d feel sure were right." “Maybe this counselor you talk about wouldn't do any better.” "But he’s trained to the job, and he must have experience enough to judge a situation and advise the couples who come to him.” "He’d be a stranger. I mean, he doesn’t know' anything about us.” “Yes, and that’s an advantage, Adam —he can’t be prejudiced.” “How do they operate, Ann ? Or do you know?” “Only in a general way. They write things for magazines, you know. I’ve read an article by this very man. I guess we’d start by laying all the facts before him—maybe there’d be several conferences. He'd want to make some sort of investigation, I guess. Maybe talk to each of us separately. I don’t know, Adam, but it would be worth trying if he could advise us so that we’d ultimately be able to live happily together!” She leaned toward him, her face intent; “ “ " ' As Adam watched her, an odd expression grew in his eyes. “Is that what you want, Ann?” “Os course it’s what I want! I married you five years ago, Adam, because I loved you. I want our marriage to work, if it possibly can!" The expression in his eyes got some odder before it changed again, and warmed into a smile. The thought that Ann would go to such lengths to save her marriage, after she’d had such rough treatment! But if she wanted a complete reconciliation, she should have it! His voice rang clear with pleased excitement. "Let’s do it, Ann. Let’s go“sse the gt;y. £Zo A’c LoalUMcdZ
