Don't forget the March of Dimes! This is an important annual project and Adams county citixens always have responded with open hearts. Several dollar clubs have been Started in the city. Several years ago, some forty or fifty men and women who patronite the coffee counter at Holthouse Drug Co. started the dollar, polio club and the .drive was so successful there that it has spread to other coffee counters in Decatur business houses. A dime always is appreciated and a dollar is appreciated ten times more. " - The annual meeting of the Decatur Chamber of Commerce will be held torn ghu I’la.us will be announced “ attd accomplishments of the year just ended will be briefed. Perhaps in the rush of things, we all have neglected to pay tribute to the man who does most of the footwork *®d preliminary planning. Secretary Fred Kolter, life time resident of Adams county and long time Decatur business man has held the post of office manager of the Chamber for several years. He has done an excellent job and we are glad to know that he has agreed to continue in this important post for another year. Q— —o Stockholders of The First State bank ot Decatur reelected all present directors of that great banking institution this week and the directors reelected the officers. including T. F. Graliker. president and Herman Krueckeberg cashier. Both men have been associated with the Decatur bank for many and Mr. Graliker and Mr. Kfueckeberg, with the assistance of their splendid per- ■ sonnel, have been instrumental in making the Decatur bank one of the strongest and best in any comparable city of the nation. With resources of more than fifteen million dollars, the Decatur institution stands as a firm support in a progressive city, giving aid and counsel whenever needed. AU of the directors and officers are outstanding citixens of Adams county and the people of this community are indeed fortunate in having this banking institution here to serve. » , ■' ■ *

CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE SHANDY brought in a tray with scrambled eggs, toast and coffee. Dae Thomas came down, gave Ixx* a hostile glance, looked lingerirgiy at Carol, curiously at Shandy, and took his departure. Lois was ravenous. The drink, the hot coffee, the food restored her. She looked at her watch. -Good heavens, it’s two-thirty!” She got up. "Shandy, you really saved my life.” *TII take you home,” he said. Carol got lazily io her feet -Darling, I’m sorry you should have responsibility for all these people practically thrust on you. But I don’t know what Td do without you. You always help me so much. After seeing Mrs. Fleming to her cottage, do get a good rest yourself." He walked slowly beside Leis. “Feel better?” he asked. -Quite all right." -Did the kid toll you what was wrong T” “She was With Roger Brindle the night someone shot through the window. She thought the bullet was mesnt for -her. Evidently she has been brooding; she was afraid someone would try again and she got panicky.” Why don’t I say Carol, she wondered. Why am I so cautious? Shandy opened the door of her cottage and followed her in. Recalling that from the second-floor windows of the big house the cottage could be seen, Lois said uneasily, “You had Shandy.” Again his mind followed hers with uncomfortable fidelity. "Carol been making remarks?” "Not ekactly.” -That's all over,” he told her abruptly. “I supposed you understood that." Suddenly Lois was not tired at a!L She felt young and light and quite irrationally happy but she managed to say levelly, "Does Carol understand it?” Shandy made no direct answer. “Why did Paula scream tonight?” <<s Lots--explained that Clyde had Insisted on seeing her and that Paula in her drugged state had mistaken him for Roger or Roger’s ghost and had screamed in terror. Shandy shook his head. "I think you haven’t quite got the picture. It is possible she was panicked by Clyde m propria persona. We might as well clear things as we g o —you and I have a lot to clear up. Lois—so I’U tell you plainly I think it was Clyde Kibboe who fired that shot at Roger.” -Clyde!

— D. C. H. S. — "Justice for All” is the title ot the essay that .several of the high school classes are writing in the essay contest sponsored by the American Legion. First prize will be $5. — D. C. H. S. — The seniors were measured for their caps and gowns recently. It made everyone realize once again that only about 4% months stand between them and graduation.. — ft C- H. S. — Do you think teenagers should have part-time jobs? This was one of the - questions the economics class debated on during the recent 1 panel discussion, entitled “Teen--1 agers in the Business World.” The pros and cons offered by the students made a very lively discussion. There was also a discussion held the later part of last week, which drew’ a great deal of response fromthe students. The class is now reading the encyclical. "Atheistic Communism.” — D. C. H. S. — : The Home Ee 111 students have finished sewing and are now doing various work. Some are knitting and embroidering while others are painting designs on pillow cases.

moving from church to church, he had never had a settled home; the boy had been kept away at schools and summer camps until he had gone into the Army. ‘•He has been here only a few weeks,” Shandy said, "and he fell for Paula right away. Paula, of course, had a kid’s infatuation for Roger. I think the boy was blind jealous and a bit unbalanced by the war. Anyhow, his own father was so devoted to the great man he had no time for his own boy. Clyde has had a lot to resent." “You mean, he killed Roger?” Lois was incredulous. "Oh, no,” Shandy said. "I don’t think, there was any — connection- —” His voice trailed off and he looked down at her. “We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” He started for the door, wheeled, returned to her, gathered her into his arms and kissed her, eyes, cheeks, throat, lips, until she was limp, clinging to him. No moment will ever again be like this, she thought. He released her with such abruptness that she staggered- " And I thought you’d home too late!” He went out, closing the door behind him. • • • The sheet of paper was adorned only by a half-dozen lines which had been x’d out. As blank as my mind, Lois thought. She was uncomfortably warm again and for the third time got up to switch off the electric heater. She returned to stare at the accusing page of paper in her typewriter and then, as a shiver ran along her spine, turned the heater on once more. What kept her sitting in front of the silent typewriter was her respect for deadlines. In six weeks she must have finished copy on the first article in the hands of the editor, with the others following at weekly intervals. By now she should have bCen able to produce a detailed outline. Half a dozen glib openings had already suggested themselves but she felt a curious sense of obligation to Roger Brindle. He deserved better at her hands. He had spent his life giving people what they wanted and someone had killed him. Someone had entered this very room and turned on the gas. t .- The gate in the fence creaked and she turned swiftly to see Shandy coming across the terrace. He waved to her and came on, smiling. When fee opened the Dutch door and came in the smile faded. For a moment he studied, her, dark head a little on one side, hands in the pockets of his slacks. He wore a sport shirt with an open collar and looked younger than 'she had ever seen him, younger than he had been seven years garlier. There was a new air of determina-"

They will begin cooking at thestart of the new aemester. — D. C. H. S. — The sophomores are experimenting in their biology class. They are growing “tumbler gardens.” Corn, wheat, or oat seeds were put in a glass, held against the wall of the glass by a blotter. A saturated kleenex was put in the middle of the glass next to the blotter to make the seeds germinate. Everyone is eager to see whose experiment will be most successful. — D. C. H. S. — I The seniors, are not alone in their study of Shakespeare’s plays. The freshman class is studying "The Merchants of Venice.” They are also enacting several of the scenes of the play. Youth Tops NEW YORK (INS> — Here’s a hair-raising item: one of the nation’s leading hairpiece makers (The House of Louis Feder) reports that percent of tta ustommade Tashays (hairpieces) are bought by men under 40. Furthermore, 44 percent , of them are bought by men in their twenties.

tion about him and instinctively Lois found herself gathering her defenses. "It’s all right to be a ghost but isn’t it carrying matter® a bit too far to look like one?” he inquired. “You are too pale and there are shadows under your eyes." With his fingertips he touched one cheek. "You’re cold!” He picked her up unexpectedly, put her on the couch and drew over her a Scotch plaid blanket. “Too much romping around in the woods for you last night. Take it easy for the rest of the day.” “But I have work to do,” she answered helplessly. “And tinie to do it In.” "After all, you know, I’m not here as a guest,” she reminded him. He shot her a quick, speculative glance, opened his lips and closed them again'. He looked at the paper in her typewriter. “At least,” he commented, "you can’t pretend that I interrupted any flow of ideas.” He sat down at the typewriter and began to poke at the keys in two-fingered, plodding fashion, his forehead puckering as he concentrated on his work. "What on earth are you doing, Shandy?” “Borrowing your typewriter. I want to get off that advertisement for Ethel Battery. Should have done it before but what with one thing and another —” he swiveled around in the chair and grinned at her. "You are a very distracting person to have around, Lois. Bad for my peace of mind.” To her intense annoyance Lois could feel herself blushing. “Speaking of the Hatterys,” she began quickly. — His dark brows arched. “Were we?” he asked in amusement. “Shandy—did you fight with Joe I Hattery?” His grin faded. "I just explained, i in the only way that septic little I rat would understand, that I don’t ! like Peeping Toms.” Remembering how she had stood • unclothed in the brightly lighted room with the dark windows, I dropping the filmy nightgown over • her head, she shrank back', her I face dark with color. "Is that what —?” I “That's what he was doing out- ; side your cottage the night you . came. I’m sorry it happened, Lois, , but I can guarantee it won’t hapi pen again.” “You’ve made an enemy on my : account,” she said uneasily, rei membering Joe’s voice the night : before. • . ‘*rhe world js Joe's enemy,” he I told her ?
