Now lb the Jlme to learn about the candidates tor offices, local, state and national. Issues, too. are significant to us and we can ill afford to pass by the news that is associated with up-coming elections. By the way, are you property registered? -—o o After you arrive at your vacation spot: 1. R-e-l-a-x! Don't try to crowd a year into two weeks. 2. Take the sun in easy doses. 3. Follow common sense rules when taking a swim. 4. Use cantlon in boats, don't overload and be sure to check weather when starting out on a large body of water. 5. Don't “sample” strange berries and„q*estionable drinking water. 6. Use good horse sense at all times. Your vacation will be more profitably spent and recreation of mind, spirit and body will become a reality. o o Take care that a door-to-door salesman doesn't sell you a bill of goods that does not live up to standard. We are told that a major racket has developed in "new” types of paint, siding et cetera. It is virtually impossible to police all residential areas so be sure you know or recognise those with proper credentials. Local merchants are far more reliable than certain "fiy-by-nighters” who are looking for a fast sale. It is best to deal with those whom you know will be here next month and next year. o l_o With more than 2.62 million i new car registrations for the first five months of 1956 it is safe to '■ assume that this year will end .a? another great year for the auto industry. The numbers range from 677,443 in the popular lowpriced field to 851 for one of the more expensive American made deluxe autos. The present strike has had little obvious effect upon new-ca: production but it said to present an enigma for those who are retooling for 1957 models. This is another year when drastic changes are predicted. Let’s wait and see. . : Q__ Sociologists recommend that we start now* to plan for those days of retirement. As many look forward to the day, that regular routine is no longer necessary, little or no planning makes for personal problems. Many indus-

tries have set up maximum limits for service but at the same time have been lax in aiding the indi- ’ vidua! to plan for use of his free time. Individual differences require a variety of diversions and many communities have failed to heed the constant increase in the number of the “retired." Some immediate planning is necessary by social agencies to guard against the boredom that could easily become a liability rather than an asset as retirement might, be. Yes. the late summer and autumn of life can be pleasant and useful if we become cognisant of retirement needs. o o The complexities of the national conventions are cleared a bit by a brochure from the Indiana State Chamber of Commerce. “Indiana Democrats will have 52 delegates to the national convention." These delegates were chosen at the recei t state convention, ach cognressional district being allocated four making a total of 44. Eight delegates at large make a grand total of 52 having 26 votes as each delegate has onehalf vote. Indiana’s 26 votes are significant when dhe realises that there will be * total of 1,372 full votes in the convention. A “bonus” of four full votes is given to each state carried by the Demorratic party in the 1952 election. Several Adams county men have served as delegates and' it must be a wonderful experience. Many of us could profit greatly from such an opportunity to see a national convention in action. i o For you rose fanciers a process called liebudding- might he of-In-terest. Large or single-stemmed roses can be had by snapping or cutting off other buds on the same main stem which will enable the remaining bud to attain greater size. Even clusters may be improved if a tew of the excess buds are removed. Knowing that we have many rose enthusiasts here, perhaps some might be interested in the principle of debudding. It is said that floribunda and climbing roses can be enlarged in a similar fashion if done while the buds are quite small. The above suggestions are from a floriculture specialist so use your own good judgement on its application.

CHAPTER 3 HELEN joined John at the door leading into the hall. “I’m sorry,” she said, again contrftety. They walked toward the kitchen. “But—but they say that Mays spits in people’s faces!’’ ••Dr. Mays might be something of an eccentric," he said. “1 think he truly can be called a wonder boy, though. He was a child prodigy, took his M.D. when not quite twenty-two. And if he's a little odd, he seems also to be an organiking genius. He nas a knack or a talent for setting up hospital centers, and particularly these screening clinics. The idea was not original with us, you know. And Mays has done some wonderful things in Massachusetts, in Indiana and Georgia. His results are phenomenal. And »o, I've been told, &re his own medical abilities, especially in diagnostics.” “I only hope,” she said firmly, “that 1 can be around when those two meet. Your Dr. Mays and Alice Milburn, 1 mean. It should be a sight. Wheee-ooo!” “As things are,” he went on, “we have decided that our clinic «-to be a success, and even to jet itself started Without delaywill need Chad Mays Just about as badly as it needs Alice’s money. An idea is all right It's fine. But you need know-how, and a firm hand, to get a new sort of project like this into operation when there is active opposition.” “But— is there?” “I hope not too much, Helen. But certainly’ Wilkins-Smith is tot —er —with us.” Helen laughid at the precisian of his diction. “Nor his friends,” John continued more briskly. “In fact, dear, the a County Hospital has put itself on record as not honoring our reports.” “I can’t stand Wilkins-Smith,”

TOUGH PASTRY If the pastry seems to be too tough, try using less water the next time and see if it isn't remedied. 0 — -0 | Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE n — Q. For what uses only is the napkin at the dinner table? A. For wiping thp lips and the fingers. It is not for the cheeks, perspiration, or the nose. The napkin should be lifted as inconspicuously aa possible, and lightly brushed across the mouth -- and then replaced on the lap. Q. When writing a thank-you note to a relative who has sent a cheek as a birthday gift, should one mention how the money is going to be used? A. While not exactly necessary, this still is a nice thing to do. Q. Is it proper for a young man to give his mother's engagement ring to his fiancee? A. This is frequently done, and is quite BJ-opeij. # ■< , L Thq automotive industry has isl vested more .than 7A4 billion dollars in new plants and equipment since 1846, In the same period, it paid production workers more than ; $26 billion in wages.

said Helen tensely. “The supercilious way he looks —as it neo just picked up a bad sish —that nasty little mustache —and the way he talks, Qrawnd for grand. And fee-rus for fierce. The Prasident* says so and so. Nup, 1 can’t stand him!” John laughed. “My wife,” he? drawled, “is one woman in a thousand. Most women think he's wondertul.” “Ha! That doesn’t make him so.” “It brings him patients. And a reputation chat is fabulous.” Helen had started for the hall,’ and the stairs. Now she came back to John’s side. “Could Wil-kins-Smith have been behind that action taken by the Women s Club against helping the clime, John?” He patted her cheek. "Smart girl!” “But thafa bad!" "Certainly it's bad. Women will come in for the check-ups of then; own accord—-it they are sold oh the idea. But the men have to be pushed. Wilkins-Smith kno w q that quite as well as we do." "And he’s a quack besides, John!” John smiled, but said nothing. “Isn’t he?” ..’1 don't know, Helen. There have been whispers about ghost surgery and tee splitting. Overzeaiousness. Not enough so that the County Medical Society has cared to prefer charges to the AMA, however." ‘ it “What would it take to make them do that?" “Well, they don’t act impefu* ously,” he answered. ‘There are all sorts of angles to it. His pro* tection ' against malpractice charges—well, anyway, such a man has to have an iron-clad organization within his hospital The key personnel knows what goes cm; don’t doubt that! And—maybe it’s only or—such a doctor has to be as slick as silk.” T wander why Alice doesn’t like him?” Helen mused. “Hi scrapes his foot and throws around his false charm enough.” “Helen!” “Why doesn’t she like him?” Helen repeated insistently. “Because, at heart, they arc both ward politicians." T suppose he has to be a politician to be Superintendent of the

Make Applications To Obtain Benefits Advice Is Given By Security Manager "An application for old-age and survivor* Insurance benefits must be fi'ed before* payments can begin," is the advice given by Christian H. W. Luecke, district manager of the social security office. One of the basic requirements that must be met before benefits can be nald to a retired worker is that he must contact the nearest social security office and file an application for them. The same re quirement must be met before survivors benefits can be paid to a deceased worker's family after his death. "It is very important for the worker and his family to understand this requirement so that checks can be started promptly and so that no loses of payments will result” Lnecke said. The three statements which follow are important to every worker and tp every member of his family t 1. The worker who is between 65 and 72 years old should file his application at the nearest social security office at the earliest opportunity after h$ retires from work. 2. A worker at the age of 72 need not retire to be eligible for payments. Payments may be made to an insured worker at the age of 72 regardless of his earnings. The worker still employed at the age of 72 should file his application at the earliest opportunity after he attains that age. 3. After the death of a person whose work was covered, by social security, some member of his family should inquiry promptly at the nearest social security office to learn what survivors insurance benefits may be paid. Complete information regarding social security payments can be obtained by contacting the social security office at 717 Fulton St. The telephone number is Anthony 7334.

County Hospital.” She let hei thoughts form into words. "But he snould be a good doctor, too, John, for that job.” ••Yes, dear, ne should. And foi all that we can prove, he is adequate," Helen’s head was down, het ' face thoughtful. “My unuerstanamg of Alice Milburn," she Said slowly, “would indicate something more—well —more personal than a Womens Club fight, or a doctors phonmess to make her shell out 5,000. Could she be taal uisgusted with the women tor i tailing tor destr Claude's line?" "Enough of them have fallen for him to *uie down tne support ot tier pet project. That’s' all it amounts to, Helen. Hy the way, Hazel Barr is back in town,” he remarked with the casuainess about world-shaking news whicn can so infuriate a man's wife. Helen glared at him. "Is she in,his office?” she asked. John laughed. "1 don t think ml When the matter was brought to my attention, the term useu was: i He had taken up with her.' 1 really don’t know very much about it, Helen. Except that she's around, and Alice may know it It not, she’ll find out sooner or later Hazel—er —attracts atten- , jj on _”' ,~-» —• •• “I see. Well, then it's all Clear to me. Alice is out for Hazel’s blood, as well as to show' the ; Women’s Club gang where to get i off.” “My dear!” "That is her reason! She has cause to hate that redhead, and i she'd spend big money to hurt her and her friend. Do you hope to get something concrete that will show him up for what he is?" “Not so much as we hope to establish our clinic so strongly and make it so good that it can automatically fight men like him in the community’s best interests,” John replied. "That’s why we're taking a large chunk of Alice’s money to hire Chad Mays, If anyone's qualified to set up an A-l organization for us and at the same time be a match for Wilkins-Smith, it’s Chad Mays. He plays the medical game al) ways, including dirty.” He spoke ' with positive relish, “My goodness,” gasped his wife. “My goodness, John!” (To Be Continued) ,
