The neighboring high school nettere, headed by the incomparable Gary Kessler six foot ten inch player, who bagged a total ot fifty points in last Saturday's semi-final contest, are now just two games away from the championship. Willshire plays next Thursday night in the first round of the Cleveland, O. finals and if successful will play the final game next Saturday afternoon.

The petitions carry almost 4,000 signatures, which certainly is an expression of the desire of the people. Next move is for the Commissioners either to grant the request and pass it on to the County Council or refuse the petition. We are sure that the three Commissioners will accept the petition as a mandate of the people and take the necessary action to make possible the bond issue. 0 o Forty-five years ago this week, March 20, marks the founding ot the Bureau at BinghamtowkiWevw York, to thetata. forty-five years, that organisation has caught fire and today there are thousands of Farm Bureau organisations spread from coast to coast throughout the nation. Originally founded as a purely social organization the Bureau soon realized that their strength was in their membership and they banded closer together to protect their interests in state and national legislation. Today the American Farm Bureau is an effective group organized right down to the precinct to assist all farmers in their many problems.

CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX OFTEN when Wade came home after one of these meetings he was keyed tip, tense, eager to release himself in talk with her before returning to his own bed. And these times she was coming to value, as she might have valued the confidences of a brother of whom she was fond. In this role of listener she could give herself gladly, and even find satisfaction of a sort. Lora turned on her side, watching him from the warmth beneath the quilts. “Is it going well?" she asked. From the first she bad found Wade entering into the spirit of secrecy that bound the Circle and Its doings. He seldom talked of what went on at Morgan's. Thus she took care never to ask >a pointed question, but only those of a general sort which would reveal her interest without making her seem to pry, “We've had wonderful news from the middle west,” he said. "Norwood has received a report of the draft being stopped in several sections, or at least so successfully resisted that tt has been postponed.” “I hope this is managed without violence,” Lora said anxiously. ' "There's been none to speak of, I believe. Os course, one can’t make that absolutely sure. The human element Is too uncertain. But Norwood assures us there will be no armed revolt, if that is what you mean. Often a quiet show of force is all that“is necessary. And desertions are on the increase an the time." Lora lay quiet, wishing she might ask more direct questions, obtain details which would quiet her doubts, and enable her to understand better what was happening. *" Wade changed the subject carelessly, as if he might have said top much. "Adam is down with another bout of fever. 1 dropped in to talk to him tonight, but he was tn bed with his shivers and sweats, and much too miserable to discuss politics." "Yoe aren't planning to drawl

Adam into this, are you?” Lora : asked uneasily. a i “Why not? He can’t be any i lover of war after what he’s gone through in prison." She turned beneath the covers, i “I’ve heard him storm about the way men aren’t enlisting. And I i think he'd like to shoot every deserter. He seems bitterly intent on winning the war on the Union side. It might be just as wen not to talk to him about these things. He could cause you trouble if he liked." “Perhaps you’re right" Wade stared into the fire again for a space of time, lost in his own thoughts. Suddenly Lora said. “You’re afraid of Morgan Channing." “Why should I be afraid of Morgan Channing?” Wade asked lyThere was no turning back now. He was already angry, so perhaps this was the time to go ahead, to step boldly into the dark labyrinth. "I’m not quite sure why you’re afraid of her," she said, “Jemmy calls her Morgan Le Fay and says she’s like that plotting queen. And of course, there are those who say she has always wanted you and that she’d cheat and lie and steal to get you." He put his hand upon her shoulder, pushing her tack against the pillow. “What are you talking about? Say what you mean!" “There was a time something happened," she said, not moving, though his fingers hint her shoulder. "A ttine 1 don’t understand—up there la the woods. Perhaps tt isn’t true at aIL Perhaps It’s just one of those stories that goes around. About you and Morgan." _ His fingers tightened, “ Jenuny ?” Jemmy'? been telling that beastly story acaln?" “Then it’s not true?" her go and turned away. For a long moment the only movement in the room was firelight flickering on the ceiling. Then he got up and went toward the door without speaking. I Lora sIiDPCd out of bed. her tone

il braid swinging against her tack las she hurried across the room, r She stepped between Wade and the i door, her shoulders against it, pity and understanding welling up in . her.

It was one thing to suffer the tragic loss of a dear one, but something far worse if s you carried a* well a sense of guilt : about her death. She wished she might fling her arms about his neck, cling to him, try to heal and comfort by the very nearness of her body. Perhaps even dispel the doubt and confusion that was part of her own being at times with the physical reality of caresses. But she would not play Morgan’s rola She slipped away from the door and ran barefooted back to bed. Once again warm beneath the covers, she held her breath as he went out, heard him close her door, go softly down ths halt She listened intently as another door opened, closed again, and only then did she relax tn relief. It was his own door, not Virginia’s. - ZTo Be ComCmmmU ,Hu.

Unusual Agreement Puts Men To Work Shelbyville Plant Back In Operation SHELBYVILLE, Ind. (INB)—An unusual labor-management situation put a Shelbyville Industry back into operation again today. The 67-year-old Spiegel Furniture Company closed tn February because owner William 8. Spiegel didn’t have enough money to keep the place in business. Spiegel said the factory has operated at a loss for several years and capital was depleted to the breaking point. But some 70 persons, -most of them from the 125-man labor force thrown out of work by th* closing of the factory, offered during a meeting with Spiegel this past week end to return to work for one month without pay. The men who are gambling a month of their time on the hope the factory can be restored to financial success will get a share in the company it the project succeed* Explained Spiegel: “If they’re loyal enough to pull me out of the situation, they damn well deserve to own the company. You know darn well some of them don’t have a dime to eat on." Shelbyville grocers cooperated in the plan by extending credit to the non-paid workers for another 80 days. In addition the lald-off employes are drawing' unemployment insurance.
