The game will be played at Bluffton. •—o o Lyle Mallonee, gasoline filling station operator and long prominent in Decatur civic affairs heads the committee of Decatur citizens charged with the collection of more than $13,000 for the Community Fund. This is the soliciting campaign for eight of the city's most prominent and active groups Including the Boy and Girl Scouts. The annual fund campaign is their only means of securing the necessary money with which to operate. In this day of streamlining, it seems It would be wise for Decatur to follow the lead of many progressive communities and have only one drive for funds each year. Presently, many organisations are operating under the Community Fund, but there are still a few who remain outside and conduct their own money raising campaigns. Let’s not get the fund drives confused with the groups which send seals to individuals. This is a sale of merchandise, not an outright solicitation, and these groups are part of a national pattern. When we talk about combining all solicitations, we are talking about groups which depend on straightout donations each year, with which to operate. ——o o There are few men in American history whose contribution to our country was as great or varied as that of Woodrow Wilson, our 28th President whose Centennial we celebrate this year. Doubtless, we all remember that as Commander-in-Chief during World War I Wilson organised and successfully led the first military effort in history involving the transport of more than one million armed men across a great

ocean. Many of us also remember Wilson's great vision of international organisation for world peace, the League of Nations. Though our own country refused to Join the League and it was a failure, through it Wilson pointed the way to the United Nations. In addition to these momentous accomplishments, Wilson left us a rich legacy in other fields. Wilson was a scholar of history, political science, and public administration and his works on constitutional and congressional government are classics. Wilson was an author and writer and his public papers and speeches are models of clear thinking and lucid writing. Unlike many public figures today, incidentally, Wilson prepared these himself —writing them first in shorthand and often typing the first draft himself even while 'in White House. But Wilson was not" Ju st a theorist or author of note. He fcas also a man of decisive action. As Governor of New Jersey he ousted a corrupt political machine. During his administration as President, federal aid to highway construction was Initiated, child labor was outlawed, women got the vote, the first Secretary of Labor was appointed, railroad and merchant marine employment was first regulated, a federal conciliation service for labor disputes was established, a minimum wage law first tried, and the International Labor Office created. He set up machinery to extend credit to farmers. The Federal Reserve Board, backbone of the nation’s banking system, was created. The Philippines were started on the road to independence. The Federal Power Commission came into being. Wilson revived Washington’s custom of * delivering his messages to Congress personally. It is altogether appropriate that Wilson’s Centennial should recall his accomplishments in order that we may benefit again from his wisdom in seeking the solution of today's problems. On the domestic and international scene they are not far different from those he faced or envisioned and on which he counseled us.

CHAPTER 28 THE TRAIL of Eklund’s horse "■ * did not last long. The storm was thickening, the rain coming In a downpour, sweeping sheets driven by the wind. It soaked Eklund to the skin, shut off his vision for more than a few feet In any direction. Within half a mile all sign was washed out so that he could no longer follow. Hurried by the storm, night was settling well ahead of schedule. He had one piece of luck, aided by a knowledge of this type of country. He found a deep coulee with rocky sides and brushy bottom, and back in its depths was I sheltered spot where the cliff made an overhang; dry wood for a fixe had collected here, washed by sudden flood waters in some freshet. But he had no supper. Eklund awoke in a gray dawn to find the air choked with snow, big, wet flakes which melted as they fell. Any notion of further exarch for the lost cayuse was hopeless. Had it been clear, he might have found something. Now he’d have to go on foot the long way back to where he’d left his buggy and the other horse. found a rabbit, crouched near the coulee mouth, and shot it for breakfast. It was far enough from the Indian camp that the sound wouldn’t reach, and no one would be abroad in this storm. His buggy when he finally reached it, was just as he had left it, with his bag under the se? t But ths zther horse, which he had hobbled, was gone. There was no sign to indicate what had Happened, but the storm was lifting, so that he could see for quite a distance, and there was no sign of it anywhere. A hobbled horse wouldn’t go far. Someone must have removed the hqbbles and ridden the noise away, and the lack of tracks in the mud Indicated that it had happened the day before. Now he’d hav« tc tratpp all the way back to town. Having been a foot soldier, he knew how to walk, but having lived in the West, he found that mode of locomotion as distasteful as did others confronted by the vatt spaces of this land. It would take him the rest of this day and all of the next. But it wasn’t a matter of choice. • • • Word that Eklund was out of town on one of his journeys brought. Narcissa as near to panic as she had ever known. Looking at the injured Armington, knowing that he must be cared for, conscious of her own limitations, she had a wild Impulse to run away. But such a notion would solve no problems, I

While-she does not have to make a thorough check of this, she should be among the last to till her plate. Q. Is it considered good usage to write in a letter, “Thanking you in advance for this, etc.”? A. No. This is trite phraseology, and implies one's efforts to force compliance. North Vernon Girl Dies Os Injuries INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Mias Doris Hudson, 20/ North Vernon, died Wednesday night in a hospital here from injuries sustained in a U.S. 50 traffic accident Aug. 7 which killed her sister.
ana me went* ar me past wvexs had been toughening. Her introduction to this country had been a salutary one, and she bit her lip, fighting down the inclination to panic, and studied the situation. Tom Armington was unconscious, and for that there was nothing that she could do. Time would have to do its own healing—at least, until the doctor returned. It might even be a blessing in disguise. The broken leg must be set and fixed in splints. She dared not wait for Eklund’s return, since it might be hours or even days Her past experience would be helpful. As a girl, she had often been taken along on his rounds by a doctor in the old community, at first because he’d felt sorry for the orphaned waif, but later because he had found her quick and helpful Frequently she had assisted him in small matters, and once she had watched as he sat and splinted a broken arm. The child had been all eyes, and the impression had registered powerfully. Now she tried to remember just how he had gone about it. The doctor had used a couple of flat pieces of kindling wood from the box behind the kitchen stove, first padding the arm with layers of clean cloth, then wrapping arm and splints tightly with more strips of cloth until all was solid and unbending as a board. She could do that. It was the job of setting the broken bones that frightened her. Calling High Low, the cook, she boiled water and, wringing out a cloth as hot as she could bear, washed the wound. It was swelling, but outwardly it didn’t look bad. She could feel the broken part, and she explained to the cook what must be done. It appeared to be a clean break. The cold sweat started on her face as the two of them pulled at the leg until she felt it slip into place. Aimington groaned, but he did not regain consciousness. Affixing the splint was not so bad. Then came the waiting, while Eklund did not return. The next afternoon, Armington regained consciousness, but by then fever was beginning to take its toll. Induced in part, she judged, by the injury to his head. FSr two or three hours he tossed restlessly, babbling incoherently. She bathed his face and kept cold packs on it, and gave him cold drinks, which seemed, to help, but not much; The ordeal came later in the night, He had sunk Into a restless sleep, only to awake in ravin* delirium.

130,030 Families In Indiana Farm Bureau INDIANAPOLIS (UP) - The Indiana Farm Bureau reported today its membership has reached a new peak of 130,030 families. The total is 8,000 above a year ago, according to Paul T. Norris, state director of the organisation department Expectant Mother Killed By Bullet INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Mrs. Betty Flint, 28, aa expectant mother, was killed today by a bullet from a rifle as she lay on a couch wathcing a television program. Her husband, Jack, 38, told authorities he was sitting on the floor cleaning the rifle when it discharged accidentally. He eaid he was preparing for a squirrel hunting trip.
mack outside, the tight of the lamp seeming only to accentuate the crowding walls around her, and everyone else, Including the anxious girls, was asleep. ’’Damn you, Dolt Kinney!” Armington shouted, trying to rise up, sc that it took Narcissa’s whole weight to keep him in bed. .“You keep away from there or I’ll kill you I” he raved on. “I'm net afraid of you! And I won't fire her so that she’ll be driven to you! Id sooner see her dead first!” So that was it! It was on her account that the accident had happened to Armington. Dolf Kinney had made threats, and had followed them up. Though sne had no proof, there was no doubt in her mind, and a numbing terror crept in the shadowy darkness Her thought* went back to Emil Jacobsen, murdered en his own doorstep without apparent reason—then on to the horseman who had raced to pass them when she and Eklund were only a little way out of town. « The logic of that course of thought was shocking, particularly because it fitted so well. Soon after that, someone had tried to kill Eklund, and he had told her that Emil had been avenged. But what he had not told her was at last starkly clear. That the killer had been in the hire of Dolf Kinney, just as the man who had caused the runaway must have been in his employ. And all on account of her! - Armington finally sank into an uneasy slumber, and by the next day the fever had abated to the point Where he was rational when he awoke, able to eat broth as the girls took turns spooning it to him. But as the hours dragged and there was still no sign Os the doctor, no word concerning him, Narcissa’s fears increased, her imaginings became torture. Finally, unable to remain still longer, she saddled her horse and rode out for a couple hours, looking across the fmpty land, returning in a sort of desperation. The lamps had been lighted for three hours, and the girls were asleep like their father, when there came a knock at the door. High Low would be long since asleep in his own quarters, and fa trying to rouse Um to help with the fevered Armington, she had discovered that he slept quite literally like a log.' Nothing short of s- gunshot would be likely to arouse him. At the thought, Narcissa Crossed to a bureau, pulled out the drawer, and lifted out a sixshooter which Tom Armington carried on occasion. Clutching that, she crossed to the dooc. .... (To Be. Continued)
