The houses are scattered to all parts of Decatur which is a good sign that we re growing in al! directions. And all of this building activity speaks well for a good city and a growing community. O' O' The great baseball classic, the World Series and then football Will compete soon with politics for autumn Interest of all Americans. It’s a great nation that can relax and enjoy such competition as baseball and other sports. It’s a healthy condition when men and women can, tor a few hours, forget their worries and economic problems and enjoy the thrills of clean athletic competition. O'"»-'"O Nothing can be more exasperating than to take off your shoes and settle down for an hour of television entertainment at home only -to see that the show is a repeat of a few wefts before or as has been the case frequently in recent days to be sitting in your front room all prepared for the second act, only to have an announcement flashed on the screen "sorry, we lost the sound.” Television is great, but it has a long way to go before it can compete with- tba»eemfont. and entertainment of a good movie house. —o-—e Dr. Harry Hebble, Adams county Democratic chairman and his officers report that preliminary plans have been made and soon the Democratic campaign in Adams county will be underway. It Will be a short but intensive contest and an all-out effort to elect every candidate, Dr. Hebble reports. Politicking is not new to Decatur's well known optometrist. He has battled through several campaigns and this year he has an organisation in every precinct to carry the virtues of the 1956 Democratic platform, county, staje and national to the people.

Adams county’s highways never have been in finer condition to provide a full measure of enjoyment when you're taking that late afternoon or Sunday drive through your favorite part of the county. County highway workers have been toiling all summer preparing bad stretches and constructing miles of new road. If you take the time to turn off the main thoroughfares and try some of the county’s lesser travelled roads you'll be rewarded with some of the most beautiful rural scenery in the nation; scenery which reflects progress and success among our hundreds of rural families. Perhaps the most, significant happening at the Republican National Convention in San Francisco last week was the public statement by presiding officer Joe Martin: “Take your Joe Smith and get out of here.” That statement not only showed the . steam-roller tactics under which that convention was operating — under which that party operates, but a much deeper conviction of the G.O.P. leaders. Throughout this land of ours, there are millions of farmers, small business owners, and laborers, both men and .women, millions of just common folks, the Joe Smiths of America. President Martin stated publicly what the G.O.P. has said through operation of policy always — there is no place in the Republican party for Joe Smith, the vast group of folks who make up a big percentage of the nation. What have the Joe Smiths ever benefited by voting Republican? What has the farmer, the laborer, Mr. and Mrs. Average People received at the hands of this group, which primarily is for big business? Chairman Martin told you when he said “take your Joe Smith and get out of here.” Platform words don’t build savings accounts; platform words don’t pay off mortgages: platform words don’t place the common man on a level with his millionaire neighbor. Only action, through legislation, brings equality. We sincerely believe that Mr. Martin set the pattern for the division of voters this coming November when he said “take your Joe Smith and get out of here.”

Household Scrapbook BY ROBERTA LEK n — A Kitchen Hint No matter how clean you think the kitchen is, try laying a sheet Os fly ffaper under the sink over night The number of insects that are stuck to it in the niorping will astonish ypu.

’ CRAFTER 28 ["HAT NOON, looking entirely 1 as usual, in striped T-shirt, clean old slacks, hair tousled, Chad Mays walked into the clinic. Charles Molen had "disappeared, and Newell McCrillis had easily returned to the anonymity of all reporters. Dr. Mays seemed to think his unexplained absence was no matter for comment, and only ihrugged when asked for an explanation of it He pushed the neatly stacked mail to one side, opened a drawer, got out a mashed candy bar and a handful of marbles. When Miss Barr came in he was eating the candy and making designs — with the marbles on his desk blotter. Then he drew a length of what looked like adding machine paper out of his pants pocket, looked at it Smiled. | “What’s that ?” she asked. “List of incoming and outgoing calls from this office.** He didn't look at Hazel; he could feel her shock, sense the way she stiffened and then exerted care to control her expression. “I didn’t know the board kept a record, ” she said faintly. “Oh, sure.” He tore the thing into little bits, across and across again. “What did Mrs. Van Horn want?” Hazel licked her lips. “What everybody wanted," she said sulkily. “To know where you were.” Chad tipped back in his chair, grinned at his secretary and watched dull color seep painfully into her cheeks. “A good memory,” he said softly, “is worth so much!** Then: “I’ve set up a lot of operations here in the clinic," be said thoughtfully, “all designed to dovetail, to function interdependently. They let me check, and recheck. I came here to get this thing in running order, to mesh its operations to as near perfect operation as possible.” • Still watching her, he saw that she was recovering her poise. "You've done a wonderful job,” she purred. “It’s not bad for ten weeks.” He tipped way back’in his chair. “We’ve screened about fifteen hundred people. Os that number, five hundred were found to have symptoms of various diseases. Sixty-nine were found to have heart Kid blood vessel disorders needing care.

The post World II high oc-, cufred in fiscal 1953 when the per capita cost hit 3469. It droped the next year to 3421 and in ctisal.l9ss to 3394 — the low point under the t present Republican administration. t Geneva Girls Compete j In Contest At Fair t Margaret and Kathy Beeler, of Geneva, were a«oag 18-eom pet ing in 4-H demonstration contests at f. the Indiana state fair today.

ready has been operated upon. Successfully. Our chest reports alone seem to justify the clinic.” “It would be such a shame," purred his secretary, “if your fine start should be lost” “Yes,” agreed Chad, “it would be.”L__ _ She moved closer to his desk. Leaned toward him. “Do you think . . .? Oh, Doctor, is there a real chance —a danger—of that lawsuit hurting you? The Directors have called a meeting for this afternoon. TAey must be worried.” - - He smiled at her, his teeth flashing. “Any doctor can make a mistaken diagnosis,” he pointed out “A group of them increases that possibility. All with the best intentions." “Did they make a mistake in the case of that woman?” ’ "I don’t know. But the suit has already hurt us. And the attendant publicity. Our business has decreased too sharply to deny the connection. The point is, Barr She sat lightly on the comer of his desk. “Don’t worry, Doctor .. .’’ She smiled and leaned toward him to pat his shoulder. It was a rotten shame, her rich voice assured him, that a man like himself should be at the mercy of maybe only a single careless and incompetent doctor. But that being true, he surely should not let the thing hurt him. He was just too vulnerable. Medi c i n e —as practiced these days—was too much a matter of dog-eat-dog. An idealistic man like himself ... His receptive smile increased her confidence, and she spoke ever more intimately to him. Her hand fell upon his shoulder, she leaned downward to him. She smiled. ... And belt was something like a game, he thought Like tennis. A swift cross-court game, played between two skilled and strong players, the woman ever bolder, the man watchful, alert, swift to seize the chance, to take the initiative. Soon they were on their feet, standing close. Chad's arm drew her against him. She pressed her cheek against his. One might have said they played their game in unison, that neither opposed the other, nor the purpose, that each strove for the same point... Chad, she thought, was just like all men. She had known that.

from the first. She knew the oae at women he liked, too. ,j—---hadn't therefore believed any « the gossip linking his name with Lacey Van Horn’s . .. The red head sensed triumph, the red lips pouted, invited . . . And upon the glass-topped desk the telephone rasped loudly, insistently. Hazel pressed closer, and Chad looked around at the offending instrument with a frown. Then he reached for the phone; he was whistling softly. "Mays here,” he said. Listened. “Os course. Send her in,” He put the phone back, tenderly,- drew Hazel roughly against him, kissed her cheek roughly, bruisingiy and roughly pushed her away. “Mrs. Milburn,” he said coldly “Get that smirk off, but quick!” “And you . ..” she said liltingly. She walked into the outer office. Chad sat down again at the desk, the back of his hand rubbing at his jaw where the woman had nuzzled him. Alicd Milbum came irt, aH beads and ruffles and French perfume. Hazel’s eyes were primlj respectful as she murmured th« rich woman’s name, and gentlj closed the door behind her. Chad got to his feet, seated his caller, resumed his chair. He let Mrs. Milburn do the talking. She asked where on earth he had been, no one could seCm to locate him—and how was the clinic going? John Blandin had told hei that it was better for everyons to keep hands off with Dr. Mays, and she had tried—but ready! What did he think about that lawsuit? Did he know about the Directors’ meeting at four? Whal jnakes you men hire women like Miss Barr? No, no, he’d better not tell her. She guessed she knew . . . She did hope that bhad was smart enough to watch the girl—eh? Chad waited. Obviously Mrs. Milburn had other things on hei mind than the clinic, and Chad’s red-haired secretary. She’d get around to them, just as she’d stop adjusting her bracelets, tucking a stray curl back beneath the web of her white veil, using her store of smiles and glances. Alice’s chatter fell into a slower rhythm; the ringed hands moved ever less—and less. “I came,” then said Mrs. Milburn, softly, plaintively, “to tell you that Lacey is planning to go away. To leave.” (To Be Continued.)
