Reports from various committees of the "Invest In A Greater Decatur" drive continue to swell the fund toward the top. Looks like we*d raise the 143,000 before the end of October. ■ o ■ --a — ■ ■ Police officers are on the alert tor any vandalism during the preHalloween season and have warned against destruction of property. Damage has been held to a minimum this year. o— — Highways are crowded these days. Patrolmen can't stop all the violators and there'll always be the foolish few who get a thrill out of gambling with their lives. Drive with care, for the other fellow may be the gambler. —o o Detroit, New York and the ChL cage Bears and Cardinals toon m the contenders in the pro-football race. Cleveland, present world champs has lost two of three starts, but can't be counted elear out. O Chicago Cub baseball fans of this area, of which there are many, were gleeful recently at the announcement of a completely new staff of top brass. ——o o Fire chief Cedric Fisher has issued a request that residents of Decatur refrain from burning leaves and trash during the present dry spell. The request is well taken and we are sure will be complied with one hundred percent. Danger of lire is always present, and doubly so when we have a long dry period such as _p.fr- , rv * » • • ' - the present. A bonfire could well be the start of a destructive tragedy and Chief Fisher's request may save untold damage from a careless fire. o o The drive for funds for the 1957 Community,fund has bogged down w(th less than half the goal of 3X3,000 achieved. This dismal report is caused partly by failure of some of the drive chairmen to have reported. Several leading industries have not yet reported, but the fund is far short of its goal. Let's be better citisens than that Let’s help the Boy and Girl Scout movements and the other worthy causes. Remember, there is only one drive for funds each year. You are urged to give liberally.

CHAPTER 31 "T hate Dolf Kinney Just as much 1 as you do,” Oates assured Running Fawn. “Because he will kill you if he can!” "Not that. Because he sold me down the river. He had me do his dirty work, and promised to back me up if 1 was caught. Then, afraid rd tell what I knew about him, he aimed to double-cross me, have me killed.” Oates’ face took on a repressed savagery to match the gleam in hqr own eyes. "I’ll kill him for that!" he said quietly. "Maybe you’re more of a man than I thought,” Running Fawn conceded soberly, eyeirtg him with new appraisal, “You might even make a pretty good Indian!" “1 sure would, with a little teachin’,’’ he assured her eagerly, and started forward again, but she evaded him lightly, moving around the bush. “If 1 call," she warned, “remember that my father is chief, and he will be most angry. I might like you—after you have proved yourself. Or if you were not all renegade!" She spat the word at him like an epithet “Now what do you mean ?” Oates demanded, puzzled. “I sure can’t keep up with you at all.” "You like me?” she challenged. “1 reckon, being a beautiful woman, you know the answer to that question.” -a "If you like me," she said tensely, and every word was a warning, “then you like me—just, me, only me. Not that white woman at the same time!” "Oh, that?” Oates relaxed, relieved. This glri was wildly Jealous because he'd first captured Narcissa, then had stopped to talk to her. "No need for you to worry about her," he said. “She don t mean a thing to me. I Just wanted to talk to her.” "You lie,” Running Fawn assured him calmly. “1 was not far off, and I heard. You like her, and when she scorned you, then you turned to me. I don’t want any second choice, no castoffs! We give Ikut tfo the dogs!” “Nfaybe I did. look twice at the white woman,’ he Conceded. “I have looked many times at the sun, but 1 also look now and then at the moon—not because it is so bright or good to look upon, but because the sun is not there to see. Now that I have seen you, I wouldn’t want to look at her again.’’. "You mean that?" Running Fawn challenged. “That I come lust? That you do not care about

A perfectly clean dry cloth will re-‘ move that clouded appearance it" the mirror la clean underneath. Keeping Poultry Keep poultry cool. It’s a highly perishable food. When you get a chicken or turkey from the mar- ' ket, wash it thoroughly inside and out, dry well, and store in the refrigerator until time to cook.

her —not at all 7” she asked him.
“You bet I mean it," he assured her. "I knew a woman like you. Running Fawn." Again she danced away as he advanced, and her words froze him in his tracks. “These are words,” she said, “empty words. But there is away of proof. You have made the threat to the soldiers. 1 will wait to see you carry it out Set her on fire! At the stake, as you told them! When she screams to the flame, come to me!” Fury and incredulity struggled in Dolf Kinney when the news of Narcissa's abduction reached his ears. A hard-riding messenger brought it from the post his horse lathered, mute testimony to the fact that Dolf Kinney paid well for prompt information, beyond and above the orders of an officer. But Kinney, on a fresh cayuse. left him far behind as he responded to the major’s summons. He’d been mildly worried during the day as no trace was found of Narcissa, missing since sometime the day before. But he had assured himself that there was really nothing to worry about She was new to this country, and she could get tost far more easily than she would suppose. But it wasn't cold enough at night to be serious, and nothing would harm her. With a wide search under way, she’d be found before long. I Certainly she would have nothing to fear from the Indians, even if they were keyed for war and chafing at inactivity. Man Walks Alone • knew, as well as others hi this country, that she was to be his woman. Knowing that, only a fool would dai^ 1 tb offer her harm. He’d been certain of that The news that she was actually a captive of the Indians, held as a hostage; 'With harm threatened, was as hard to credit as it was infuriating. Then he understood, as the fuller explanation was given, who had been spokesman for the Indians. Oates. ' The cleverness and daring of the man surprised him. He hadn’t credited the convict with such Initiative or ability. But on the whole, it was easy to understand. Outcast and hunted by the whites, Oates had had no choice but to go to the Indians. But he realized that Kinney was powerful there also, that, fearing Oates because of the double-cross he had worked against him, he would demand that the Indians turn him over to
breeding and courtesy, he will rise for any announcement, no matter how short it may be. Q. After “going steady” with a boy for a year, we parted. It is necessary that I return a watch and pin that he gave me for my birthday and Christmas? 1 , A- Since these were not engage’ment gifts, it is not necessary to return them. ' Q.

The child died Sept. 30. Kowalewski was held in jail under $2,000 bond. A grand jury indicted him Jest week.
Kinney. His Judgment had been strictly accurate, so, faced with that alternative, Oates was taking this way of building himself up and challenging Kinney at the same time. It was daring, clever. But not clever enough. Just how powerful Kinney was in this country, he’d soon find out! Kinney found Major Blake pacing the floor of his office, while his jsenior officers stood about uneasUy. Plainly they nad been waling for him, partly because of 'his experience as a scout, partly on account of his personal intc-est in this new development Blafce tost no time in coming to . thet point •Jt appears that we have underfhtimated these Indians and thejr intentions," he said. “But yoti’re an old hand in dealing witji them. What is your opinion?” ’I don’t think that our judgment was off,” Kinney said prdknptly. "Not so far as the Indians were concerned. What has, happened is that Oates broke Jail here.” His words implied a retyflte for the efficiency of the pos£. ‘Once he was loose, he knew what would happen if he was cailght So he went to the Indiana They were restless —and he saif that and played on It Then he .took matters into his own haijds, pretty much, and grabbed her, which was pullin’ a fast one on them. Now he’s tryin’ again to force their hand.” Told in that way, it had a logical sound. Blake nodded. ’"that could be. But it doesn’t mitigate the seriousness of the present situation. The Indians have gone out on a limb. The question now is, what is our best way of dealing with them?" "There’s no question about that, under the circumstances,” Kinney retorted, and now he was sincere. “A wrong move could not only lead to full-scale war, but it would mean her death, the way they’ve threatened. If we went after them with every available man, still we wouldn’t be tn time to stop them from butcherin’ her. As soon as we rode out the gate, they'd see us, and signal back. I know Indians, and I know their chief pretty well. And I figure I know what this renegade Oates is tryin’ to da” He paused, impressively. “My suggestion is that you let me'go out there and see what I can do. I have personal reasons for wanting to free her.l figure I can do it.” - (To Be Continued} 1
