coming in regard to this Issue. Each of us does have a stake in the outcome. —-o—o Will we soon have a retirement program for college graduates? At our present reckless pace of pounding pension programs for all, it would appear that in the not too-far-distant future someone might come up with a plan.r to retire earlier and spend the remaiping years after 25 of basking in the sun, frolicing in the snow or what ever might be the whim of the decade. Some of us are no longer able to contribute to society when we have reached the old age of 65 so we can anticipate retirement earlier even though there is no apparent way to finance such a plan. ’The king is dead, long live the king" has a familiar sound and it seems to be true in politics, too. With the nomination of Harold Handley for governor by the Republican state convention it would seem that the incumbent governor has lost his political magic; The renomination of Senator Capehart was a foregone and it appears that the up-coming campaign will be a dandy._Such has long been the case in Hoosler-land-wad, even though this is a presidential, year, cannonading Xwih be come the You best 5 mSde. famous last words, “I forgot to register?"

Or,” a slight flush mounted to her pretty cheeks, "am' I apeaking »ut of turn?” “Os course you’re speaking out of turn, Jane darting. You always do,” Dirk said, smiling. “But Vai’s reaction to my proposal has little to do with poor Aunt May's death. She’s in love with the handsome doctor who’d lika to toe me hanged.” Jane stared unbelievingly at Vai. “You don’t mean to say that you don’t want Dirk? All the «oomen in Fiji were mad about him. He's that sort of dangerous male creature who is masculine «nd yet who understands women, t know he pretends not to, but with him, his knowledge of them B instinctive. For heaven's sake who w this doctor?. Don’t tell me he’s one of those brutal hemen.” Dirk was looking amused. “You ean judge tor yourself as to his attractions, Jane dear. Here he eomes now.” "V — As they’d been speaking, Bruce and' the tall, fair-haired girl Vai had noticed talking and dancing with'him several times on the ship stepped onto the verandah. Obviously Bruce was looking about for a table. Jane turned her head and then cried sharply, “But that’s Cynthia Felton with him. I’d so i*a she wa* coming back so soon.” "She lives here?" Dirk asked. She wrinkled her small nose. "Few people actually Hee here—most of them ard birds of passage as we are—but Cynthia and her father have; tfeen here several years. He’s a distinguished scientist and, I gather, is working on tropical diseases in connection with the hospitals at Montego Bay- Her tether's a widower and Cynthia and he have a house quite close to us."

HOMEMAKING TIPS By DONNA BCHIEFERSTEIN Asst. Home Agent ——— The whole summer from Memorial Day to Labor Day is picnic time. On the coming holiday, July A -V -W of you will be packing baskets and heading for your favorite park or other picnic site. Many families ? like to cook at least part of their food at the place where it is eaten. Half the fun of modern picnics is preparing the food, so why rob anyone of the pleasure? Cooking fires should be built according to their use. Provide a small fire and keep it from spreading. A large fire wastes fuel, is hard to control, and is difficult to work over. When leaving, make fire is thoroughly out by wetWg it and covering with dirt Here are a few suggestions you might like to try cooking on your next picnic. Twisters Make a stiff biscuit dough. Make % inch strips. Place a weiner on a stick, wrap a strip of dough around it and roast. This can be varied by adding U cup cheese to each 2 cups of flour in the biscuit recipe. Or, you can first cook either a strip of bacon or a Sausage on. the end of a stick and then cover with dough and bake over the fire. Meek Angel Food Trim crust off day old unsliced bread. Cut bread in slices 2 by 2 inches and % inch thick. Dip each piece in condensed milk. Roll in shredded coconut. Place on pointed stick and roast over fire.

far from theirs and the waiter i was leading Bruce and Cynthia i toward it As they moved forward, they had to pass by their i table, and Jane caught eagerly a* Cynthia’s arm. “Why, Cynthia, we had no idea you were on your way home! But welcome, anyway.” The tall, fair-haired girl smiled down at her pleasantly. ' “Hello, Jane. I came home on the spur of the moment when I heard that Dad hadn’t been well. That’s why he wasn’t able to meet me. But I’ve hired a car and I’m going to give Doctor Harridan a lift across the island." She laughed. “But I’ve forgotten to introduce you. Bruce, this is Jane and John Carraway, very good friends of ours.” Her voice altered slightly, perceptibly, as she added, "AU the rest of us know each other. We came out WQufWße boat*" — Bruce acknowledged the introduction to the Carraways and he gave Vai and Dirk a faint smile of recognition. "Well . . . ru seeing you both soon.” Cynthia nodded to thi Carraways rather quickly and she didn't look again toward Vai and Dirk. " But Dirk spoke before Bruce sad Cyhthia had time to leave th»m -I wonder if you would do me a great favor, Miss Felton? I was going to drive with my friends over to Montego Bay this afternoon, and take Miss Alison, but things have happened which you may know about,” he gave her a faint smile, “which necessitate my staying in Kingston tonight at any rate. My good friends Jane and John refuse to leave me until the worst or the best is known. But Miss Alison has to report for duty at the hospital tomorfow morning. Would it be asking too much of you to give her h lift?" Momentarily Cynthia’s expression showed that it was certainly asking rather much, but she recovered herself and forced a smile. ” “Not at all, Mr. Hanson. I’ll be delighted to give Miss Ail-on a

mt But we snani oe leaving ,; until five o’clock. Could you meet us here in the lounge, Miss Alison T" Before Vai had time to reply, Dirk answered for her. *TII guarantee that Vai's here." “Then that's all arranged," Cynthia said. Again she gave • forced smile and turned away with Bruce to follow the waiter to the vacant table. Vai was squirming with embarrassment. "Oh Dirk, how could you? You must have seen tI.S-r didn’t want me. rd much preier to go across by a train or a*bus." "You wouldn’t if you knew our train and bus services,” Jana laughed again. “But anything would be better—" Vai was beginning when Dirk broke in again. “Where is your sense of humor, Vai? Bruce has fixed it so that 1 can’t drive you across. Why shouldn't you drive across with him and that girl?" “But she didn’t like the suggestion, Dirk." lie grinned across at her. “Os course she didn’t. You’re too dashed sweet looking, VaL But why should 1 consider her? You’re my chief concern.” “I can’t understate whyyou’rs literally thrusting Vai Into his arms, Dirk," Jane said. “It doesn’t seem like you at alt I’vs always thought that when you wanted anything for yourself, ydu’d go an out to get it” A queer little smile twirked ths corners of Dirk’s lips. “Well, put it like this," he said presently. “Bruce is doing his best to put a rope around my neck, literally speaking. 1 thought’Td try putting one around his, but a rope of a different sort But at least I’m hoping the rope Will be sufficiently strong for him to hang himself with, metaphorically speaking.” He spoke bluntly and fiercely. Vai raised her head sharply and looked across into his face, and suddenly she felt she was looking into the’ face of a man who was practically a stranger. x - (To Be Continued)
