Public confidence is of utmost importance to continned expansion of air transport and the present probe is being carefully watched by alh The public is not overly concerned with the placing of blame but what will be done to avert a similar disaster.

Society has always been compelled to endure that small percentage of individuals who mock at public decency. The recent acts of vandalism indicate that there continues to be a small percentage of people who can not conform to the mores of a civilised community. Because of that minority we must maintain jails and over-sized police forces. Because of this same minority throughout the world we are compelled to ever be vigilant lest International vandalism break - out.

It certainly does cost more Jo carry the mail as well as to deliver it than 1J did a decade ago. One wonders if private delivery agencies can still pay dividends with slight increases, are the extra services of the postal department sufficient to warrant the present proposals? No, we do not wish to~ return to the days of pony express, but om can't help thinking about an increase that affects all of ms. .

He will spend a few days in the White House, and then fly to Panama July 20 for a conference of American presidents. ... - w Before returning to Washington, the President will be making use of working quarters which he opened Tuesday at Gettysburg College. It was in this sparsely-furnished office that he casually told GOP legislative leaders he still plans to. run for a second term despite his recent illness. The President's word was relayed to newsmen by. Sen. William F. Kuowland (R-Calit). Later. Tuesday, a presidential aide let it be known that Mr. Eisenhower planned all along to keep his hat in the ring and stiil favois Vice President Richard M. Nixon as his running male on tbe Republican ticket. White House press secretary James C. Hagerty was asked whether there was a “period of re-thinking, decision and reconsideration” gy the President before the second term announcement was made. * "" ' .■' ■ - - “N<V I don’t think there wage” Hagerty replied. i ' ‘ 4 “After the operation, there was jhever any doubt that he would stay in the race?” a newsman asked. w "j don't think so,” Hagerty said.

Bruce and Vai took turns in staying with Cynthia, who was slowly regaining consciousness. It was with a deep feeling of relief that Vai saw the two colored ' orderlies with a stretcher thread their way through the thick forest of trees toward the hut The newly-built hospital was a gracious-looking white structure on a hillside overlooking Montego Bay. Darkness wa*falling by the time they reached it, but the night Was still and peaceful and the moon was rising. Cynthia’s father had got out of a sick bed to await the arrival of the ambulance and stood in the foyer with the matron watching the stretcher on which his daughter lay being carried Into a. private ward. Afterwards he wrung Bruce’s hand and thanked him brokenly for having saved his daughter's life. 7"If you hadn’t been in that car, Harridan, I dread to think what would have happened to Cyrf-’ thia,” he aid earnestly. "You, saved my little girl’s life—and she's everything in the world to Bruce said modestly that he’d done what any other surgeon would Jiave done, and together the two men and the matron went down the long' corridor Into the private room* which had been prepared for the patient Vai found herself alone in the reception hall where one of the ambulance drivers -had dumped her luggage.

Then he rooted unsuccessfully for the American Leaguers while watching the All-Star baseball game on television. The National Leaguers won, 7-3.

She had closed her eyes when she was aroused by a voice, with a faint trace of a Scottish burr lingering in it, saying: "I’m sorry you’ve been left on own. Sister Alison. It was Very rehffiSs of me, but I’ve been helping them get Miss Felton settled and introducing Doctor Harridan to Doctor Munsey, who will be in charge of Miss Felton tonight” .‘ ; “It’s quite all right, Matron.” Vai smiled and got. to her feeL “I must have dropped off to sleep. I suppose I’m tired.” “You have every right to be tired," the matron said sympathetically. "Doctor Harridan has been telling me what a woheierful help you were to him. Would you-like to go to your room now and have your supper in bed, or will you join us in the dining room so .that I can introduce you to your colleagues?” The short nap must have refreshed Vai for she no longer felt so tired. "I’d like to have supper ii. the dining room, Matron, if I may.”- She smiled again and added, "But 1 certainly need to bathe and change my clothes first.” "Come along, I’ll show t ju>a, your room. One of the orderlies Will bring your luggage along, and ’perhaps after supper you’ll come" Into my apartment and have a cup of tea and a chat That is, of course, US .you’re not too tired* Sister.” Vai smiled back at her gratefully. “I’m sure I shan’t be too tired, and thank you, Matron.” The bedroom assigned to her was a small, pleasant rpom t and its large window looked down over the fashionable tourist resort of Montego Bfiy. She opened the window wide and looked out She saw the still waters of the bay, blue steel in the moonlight, the circle of lights along the front and the more brilliant lightest the fashionable tourist hotels. .

She smiled ddwn at Vai as she carried th# tea tray back into the sitting room. “Are you feeling any better?” The matron looked in a kindly way down into the girl’s pale, strained face. “Yes, much better, thank you, Matron,” Vai said, and added anxiously, “Is Miss Felton still resting comfortably? The trip across in the ambulance hasn't set her back?" "We feel confident she’s off the danger list. Doctor Munsey, a brilliant young surgeon by the way, and one of our own islanders, is looking after her. Cynthia’s father, Professor Felton, is so reassured he has gone home with Doctor Harridan, whom he has Invited to spend the night with him.

There followed in quick succession Alice, Monique and Claudine, the three girls adopted by the McGuires and now called Nancy. Frances and'Lorraine.

But he did not like little girls and took no responsibility tor them. in 1952 the local authorities decreed Gisele was not a fit person to care for her children because of the bar-room atmosphere in which she lived. The four children were taken to an orphanage, from which they were adopted by the McGuires.
