Officials of Westinghouse Electric and Union leaders will meet again Monday in Washington in an effort to settle the four month old strike, which has developed into one of the most costly tn recent years for both sides. People everywhere are hoping that an agreement can be reached soon. 0 0 The dairy farmer has his problem too. Prices paid the farmer dropped considerably in 1956 and production increased to more than a hundred twenty-four billion pounds. Frantically ho has increased production every time the price has been reduced in order to keep his gross income the same. However, price reductions at the farmer level have been too great and the dairy farmer ie caught in the squeeze. 0 o Senator Homer Capehart has come out with a statement that he has the answer to the farm problem. If the statement is true, why should we wait or worry about an Eisenhower announcement? Os course, before discarding other presidential candidates, let's make sure that the somewhat loquacious and pleonastic Homer actually has a plan to save the farmer from his plight. Incidentally Capehart voted with the wealthy in the natural gas controversy. 0 Faltering farm prices are the gumber one problem in the midliewest in this election year and the second big issue is the G.O.P. plan of the "rich get richer and the poor get poorer”. Actually the health of a candidate is secondary and that has been proved again by the numerous JSiseijhower va-

Sidewalks and side streets were slick for several hours. The most fortunate thing was the fact that there was no wind, which no doubt would have caused some utility wires to break from the weight of the ice. Light, power and telephone service all had continuous operation. 3- A » o -0 The trustees of Adams county Memorial hospital, through their attorney John DeVoss, Friday tiled a supporting petition bearing 4,150 signatures of Adams county freeholders, asking for permission to issue $450,000 worth of improvement bonds for modernizing and remodelling the county hospital. First step is tiling the petition with County Auditor Frank Kitson, whose duty it is to ascertain from the records if all signers are freeholders. There may be a few duplications of sigbut it is reasonable to assume that there are at least 4,000 bonafide signatures. This certainly is proof that citizens of Adams county want their hospital up to a normal standard when compared with institutions of neighboring counties. The, people have expressed their willingness and desire for a modern hospital and they have expressed confidence in the board of trustees whose duty it will be to supervise the reconstruction, if the Commissioners and County Council act favorably. *

I'. ' I SYNOPSIS Newly married Lora accompanies her husband. Wade Tyler, to his family home on Staten Island after nursing him back to health from a serious wound he received while fighting as a Union soldier. She meets Wade s autocratic mother, Amanda Tyler, and Jemmy. son of Wade and his dead first wife. Virginia. Amid the growing tension between Wade's mother and Lora, the bride learns that Virginia died by drowning in a pond near the Tyler home. Lora finds Wade mourning for Virginia 'sad asks him to tell her what she was Bee. After learning more of Wade's earlier fife Lora promises Jemmy a surprise for Christmas. The surprise is a puppy despite the opposition of Wade's mother to having nets in the house. Lora makes the acquaintance of Mrs. Morgan Channing and begins to learn of the relationship between her and the Tylers including the fact that Virginia was her sister. CHAPTER ELEVEN THEY were all kept busy tor the rest of the day, buying a big Christmas tree and setting tt up in the parlor. Lora set out the candles she Mad purchased. Com must be popped for the popcorn chains and cranberries threaded to wreathe the pine boughs with garlands of red. A box of “silver rain," slender, fragile strips, was strewn over the That evening Lora brought the garnet dress goods down to the parlor and sewed careful seams while Jemmy and his father decorated the tree. For the first time in this house she felt warm and happy washing them work together. For the moment something of the antagonism seemed to have died away and they, were more like father and son than ever before. '■ It was Christmas Eve. Great white flakes had begun failing from a gray sky early that morning, and Lora and Jemmy had already made several excursions into the yard. Lora had not felt so young and free from weight and trouble for a tong time. She pelted Jemmy enthusiastically with powdery balls and laughed, when his return shotq got into her mouth and eyes. , / f ? There had been nothing like this back home tn Pineville.

' Dogwood Lane wore a new dress that transformed familiar contours and turned the stretch of road into a magic aisle, no longer rimmed by brown boughs, but all ashimmer in clean white. As she dressed for the party that evening. Lora was glad that the snow carried no reminder of Christmases at home. Tonight — just for tonight—she did not want to remember. Staten Island was a different world and any resemblance to Christmases of the past coluld be forgotten. “ “ Areyou readyvet ’"whispered Temmv urgently at Her door. ••Not vet." Lora cried. bShuise he'was as excited as she “Tt takes a tadv a very lone whtt* frv drosq for a nnrtv. von know ”nt T*ve Promised— you shnM hn •he vpw first to see me when Pre readv ” At Mrs Trier's tnirfrnrHrwv sho i had purchased a lareer hoop on her trln to town, and now she , dmnned her new crinolines over tt I and reached for the garnet dress where ft burned !n bright warmth ’cross the bed A Itttle hreathlea.s---l Iv, holding the neck with care to , avoid brown ringlets fust releas’d from curlnaners. she slipped the , dress owr her head.

Tt was hard to hook up ' the bodice because her fingers were ' shaky, and she considered running 1 across to Wade’s room to ask for 1 help. But she still felt a little shy with him on such matters and, besides. she did not want him to see her until she was dressed to the last touch. Somehow tonight she wanted to see his eyes light with admiration for her alone, unbeclouded by memories of Virginia. Pure female conceit, as she well knew, and laughed softly at hereeU because of M.

l There was a small mirror over her dresser which she had carefully avoided, not wanting to look until she was entirely ready. From a 'small bag of dark-red velvet she drew a string of garnets set in old gold. These were her only jewels and had belonged to her mother. Doc had given them to her on her 16th birthday, and now she clasped them about her throat with a feeling of love and pride. Their hue matched the color of the gown exactly and they glowed warmly against her skin. She whirled about the room, pretending that a partner's band was at her waist — then remembered with a faint twinge of regret that she would not be dancing tonight But tt didn’t matter. Just to appear on Wade’s arm and sense that he was proud of her would be satisfying. With his wife tn so beautiful a gown, he could not help but be proud, even thokgh she had no real beauty, as she knew very well, he would smile at his friends and say little—that would be safest. And oh. she would be the very pattern of a lady! She would do. she thought Oh. she hoped she would do! She went to open the door and Jemmy, who had been leaning against it almost tumbled into the room. She whirled about for him. Laughing at his surprise, waiting toit Ws approval. But he was not one to approve with easy carelessness. First he must walk all about her judiciously looking her up and down. He even leaned over to fluff out the hem of her gown where the material had caught against Itself. He took so long that she suddenly began to worry. If Jemmy didn’t like her—. Then he stood back and his smile was one of approbation. “You’re as pretty as a Christmas tree,* tie said. She swept him into her arms for a hug regardless of possible harm to her dress. He wriggled uncomfortably out of the squeeze and pulled her to the door. “Let’s go show Papa. Now that Tve seen you first.” (To Be CattlUMied),
