Harold E. Stassen, who has used-'the back door to national publicity, apparently has a hunch that the Republican nominations are not yet certainties. It is a good guess that Mr. Stassen would be “available” in event Mr. Eisenhower is indisposed at convention time. The present smokescreen is just an obvious attempt to keep iu the public eye. Strange fellows, these politicians! o— —o The polio season is at its peak during Ute August and September. Present experience indicates that those who have been given the Salk vaccine are better protected than those who have not had these shots. This should encourage each parent to provide the vaccine for his children to better lorestall the threat of'polio infection. ——ft? .o'l ■.... . Among the; many presidential hopefuls in the Democratic party is one who has a “likely-to-suc-ceed' tag on his lapel. Senator Stuart Symington (Mo.) has had the type of build-up which could . .be the_ escalator to a nomination should some of front runners stumble somewhere along the way. With Averell Harriman, Frank Lausche and Estes Kefauver also willing to accept the nomination, the inevitable shuffling behmd the scenes could find the cards stacked to “deal in” Senator Symington. Having been born in Massachusetts, raised in Maryland, been in business in New TdrJt and now a senator ft-otfcjdiasouri -drould not hurt his chances. <«b a - s yote-g»tter.

Addition of hi-sis to our autos may enable some drivers to hear records rather than try for them. —o o—; — Your needs can be supplied by Decatur merchants. Too, these merchants will be here if and when adjustments need to be made. In many away, it will pay to Shop the Decatur Way! o_ —o The Bureau of Public Roads estimates its needs for the huge highway program now planned. The needs include: 49.0 million tons of steel, 1.399 billion barrels of cement, 128.0 million tons of bituminous material and 9.71 billion tons of crushed stone and gravel. All that certainly should make for lots of employment as well as greatly improved highways, shouldnt It? o o Much is to be missed by the youth of tomorrow in the demise o of the ‘big ton.” With the decision of Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Combined Shows to call it quits, our future youth arc destined to miss one of the thrills of childhood. The advent of television and the agglomeration of single acts have tended to change the perspective of young people. Perhaps we overestimate the thrill of our first circus but it does remain as one of our fondest memories. We assume the living room showwill provide an interesting though inadequate substitute for the now passe “Big Top.” i o— —o- — . There appears to be a concerted rush to file form CSS-800 f<fr ■ the stfll bank program. Illinois and lown reports' indicate that neatly'6o,ooo farmers have signed as of July 13 and more than 800.- . 000 acres are now enrolled in the program. AveFage payments of ' i '- • ■■ ■ ■ about 5615 are being estimated At the moment for each farmer now included in this plan. Final figures will inciease the total signers and acreage with average payments probably consistent with the one mentioned. One wonders if more money and energy were spent in new uses for agricultural products, might not the over-all picture be brightened? We are in agreement with the conservation features of the plan but whakto do about increased productivity is another matter. ,a- . - .

0 0 | Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE n ; — -• Q. Is it proper ~fbr people in church to greet each other before the service begins? A. No; the babel of voices in a church just prior to the service shows an extreme lack of good breeding on the part of those who are creating it. If you do see a good friend in church, a pleasant smile is quite enough - and any speech should be reserved until after the service is over. Q. When unfolding a napkin at the dinner table, should it be done above or below the table? A. Below the edge of the table. Q. Is it proper for an office girl to smoke cigarettes at her desk? A. This is not a matter of etiquette, but one of her employer’s wishes. 20 Years Ago Today 8 - -—- — , ■ o July 30 - City’s budget draft for 1937 to be held to that of this year.

T'.i eiwursg ‘ A group of doctors in the Midwestern suburb of Burbank try to estabish a free screening clinic despite ack of money and opposition from tlie County Hospital. Dr. John Blandin. a strong booster of the project, returns from a meeting and tells his wife. Helen, that enough money has been donated by the Wealthy Mrs. Alice Milburn to set up the clinic. Mrs Milburn donates the money to spite the Women's Chib because they voted against helping the project. Dr. Chad Mays, brilliant but eccentric young medical administrator. is hired to organize the clinic. Dr. Blandin and his associates feel that Mays will be more than a match for the opposition, led by influential Dr. Wilkins-Smith, head of the County Hospital. Dr. Mays prefers to remain unidentified until he can investigate the setup. Sitting In the park near the clinic. Dr. Mays meets a youngster named Johnny who is brought to the park every day by faJa mother, a pretty, young blonde ■amed Lacey. CHAPTER « THE YOUNG man was quiet enough. He came into the handsome, expensive restaurant as if it was his usual haunt; he walked through the iamplit lounge, and straight across it to 1 small table in one corner. The hostess stood uncertainly, near the door, looking at the man's striped T-shirt, his rumpled hair. No one else in the halffilled room was dressed so Informally. for, after all, this was the Red Coach! The hostess took her problem to the manager, who came and looked at their unwelcome guest. “Yes. I'll speak to the waitress.” .... When the young woman in the gray uniform and white cap and apron came to Chad, she told him that she whs sorry, they didn’t serve men who weren’t wearing jackets but she thought he would get service at the Parkmoor down the street., Chad’s gaze focused upon her. “I’m wanted in two states for kidnaping waitresses who refuse to serve me,” he said darkly. She started, and took two quick steps to the rear. The man behind the table crossed his eyes at her and she fled. At the next table someone laughed. Chad picked up the menu. “You’re about to get bounced, boy,” said a mail’s voice, clearly. “ThSJr’U do it in a well-man-acred fashion,” drawled Chad. But he glanced up at the speaker, a dark, smiling man of about thirty, his black, almond-shaped eyes crinkled with amusement - \ . © 1956. by Elizabeth Seifert. J J.II "Il fSWlwW.*■» i'~'>

“its almost worm waning around to see,” this chap mused. "Might be a story in it” “I came in for beans,” Chad told him reasonably. "Besides, Tm clean." The dark young man moved over to Chad’s table. The approaching manager stopped, midaisle, then turned back. “You must have power," Chad commented. J P--“I do.” The stranger lehned back and studied Chad. “What’s your idea, Bub?" “I was hungry, Mac," Chad said reasonably. “And a restaurant seemed the place to go." “Look. You can’t start being rational IYI a joint like this." Chad got to his feet and started for the street. “My name’s McCrillis." The dark man joined Chad on the brick walk between the clipped evergreens. “W here is this Parkmoor place? Or is it a joint, too?” “It’s no joint, but I have a better idea. Come on home with me and get your beans. Stella always keeps a can on tap.” "Good for Stella I” McCrillis’ car was an ancient Convertible that bounced noisily down the boulevard. "What’s your line, Mac?” asked Chad. “You wouldn’t like it. What’s yours?” “You Wouldn’t believe mine. But my first name isn’t Bub.” Newell McCrillis and his Stella lived in a red brick apartment building called Windermere Gardens on the fourth floor. The front door opened upon a pleasant living room and a smiling young woman with short, redgold hair. She was dressed in well-fitting blue denim slacks, and a T-shirt that was a dead ringer for Chad’s. This coincidence amused the three of them at once. The man of the house made a thing of telling about Chad’s experience at the Red Coach. “1 told him that you’d have beans.” “I do,” said Stella. “Is he fussy about kitchen-service?” The men followed on het heels; the host brought beer from the refrigerator, Stella opened the beans, and set the pan on the stove, put out bread, butter, pickles. This done, she went back to the stove, and Chad, perched on a Reprinted by permission of the publis Jwtributed by Feature* Syndicate.

"That hurt!” "Sorry. But adhesive isn’tthn proper dressing.” She cupped her palm protectively over the place marked by bulbous red lesions. "Darned stuff,” she growled. “Keeps coming back.
