Remember, it is your duty as a good citisen to vote. Voting in Adame county has always been well above the state average. Let's keep it that way. o ■ O" “Common interest and ownership" best defines a community. Referring to a “Community Fund" we think in terms of participation by all. When privileges in common are give® to each of us. there is a companion of reresponsibilities for each. Our common Interest is in a better town and environs; only by accepting the challenge of helping to make it a better town can success be found. Our Community Fund provides financial aid. to most of our local agencies that add so much to a good town. Buildings, houses, streets, trees, and people are necessary for a town or city but a real live community needs an interest by each in the welfare of all. Let each of . us give a big boost to the various participating agencies by contributing to the present campaign. Keep both Boy and Girl Scout programs on the upgrade, give a lift to the Community Center which has played it’s fine part in our affaira Talk, boost, support the present campaign; it is for you, it is yours! o o—— Rev. Ray Walther, pastor of the First Presbyterian church here has submitted to this office what we term a very timely editorial We are printing it exactly as written and we believe it will meet with the unqualified approval of every citisen of Adams county; • “Peter Marshall once prayed, “O God, help us to stand for something, that we won’t fall for everything.” The other day a comrade went to the party office to ask for a copy of the party

platform, only to be informed that they had no copy and never had a request for it. You might say that that is the way it is in Russia. But this happened in Decatur. Isn’t it strange that on the eve of such an important election, both political party headquarters in town have to search for a copy of their own platlbrm? In fact, even the Editor of the Decatur Daily Democrat couldn’t produce a current issue. Now let’s not misunderstand my intention in writing this. I am not after the heads of either party or the Editor: but I am after the real guilty party—the citizen who votes. Upon what basis do we vote; by “party,” or by choice of personalities, or for what the platform promises to our country? How can we vote for any one if we do not know what he stands for? It seems most of our complaints after either party has been in office for a while, is that they do so many things we never intended to vote for. Perhaps the very things that they have done are those things which they planned to do as stated in their Platform. And if you and I had taken time to read and compare these platforms be fore voting, we would have been more prepared for their later actions, or perhaps we might have voted to prevent such a proposed program of government If American people don’t stand for something they will fall for anything. And only in America do we have the freedom of thought, press, and election with two parties. Let’s use it for more than a spite campaign and make it worthwhile. Let’s each one put more into this privilege We have as Americans, to choose our leaders In government according to their promises to the people through the platform. Know more before you vote.

CHAPmM PURY shook Dolf Kinney. He 1 had been prepared for the first part of Oates's dramatic challenge and denunciation, confident of his own position among these red men. certain that fie could brush the charge aside. It had not worried him. But the part eoncermag the contaminated blanket was something else. He didn't understand how the convict knew anything about it, but this was a matter which would not be easy to explain. This was perfidy exposed. It had been the whim of the moment, finding the dead Indian wrapped in his blanket. And at the time it had seemed like a good idea. Since the Indians would be bitter against him in the long run, it would be better to have their ranks decimated, the chief particularly among the dead. They'd never know that he was responsible, but since the medico was short on smallpox vaccine, it wdUld be an inevitable, devastating wave of doom which would strike them. As he had figured it, they would already have done what he wanted before the disease began its ravages. The plan had seemed perfect at the time. But with his trickery explained, he could see even before Oates finished speaking, what the effect would be. Dolf Kinney moved fast This was what he’d hoped for, though even victory might not bring safety. It had long been his boast that he’d never been bested, and his gun cleared leather before the charges were hardly out of Oates' mouth. “That’s a dirty lie!* Kinney blazed, and the gun in his hand was blazing also. Oates had anticipated what was coming, had been willing to stake his own gun prowess on the issue. He too was fast, but not fast enough. His gun was still in leather when the first slug hit him in the chest and drove him back; three others followed like trip-hamiper strokes, and he was dead before his’ legs buckled and let him down. Dolf Kinney stood, smoking gun tn hand, watching narrowly, a smile beginning to twis' the comers of his mouth. Then suddenly he choked, gasping, striving to twist, to turn, to reach with his free hand and grasp at the thorn which was suddenly in his back, a knife Made driven deep in his vitals, drinking the blood and the life. Surprise and bewilderment replaced the triumph on his face, but he could 1 not reach 'fax enough, or fast enough. He coughed again and i fell, almost at the feet of the man < be had slain. f

B had happened that, m a apses of seconds. Maa Walks Alone looked to where Running Fawn stood, ths brigfat flush of her cheeks matching the feverish glare of ber ejm, a slender wild creators before whom now even hardened wanton shrank. -Why Ad yon km him?- the chief asked. “Why? Because he killed MmF* Runnlng Fawn crossed to look down at Oates, Ha face half-bur-led amid new-fallen leaves. She did not stoop to touch him, disdained any further word of explanation. Only, with a swift jerk, she retrieved her knife, wiped it is quick strokes on Kinney's pants leg, then moved away, ber glance wild and bright. The sound of horse's hoofs broke the silence and relieved the tension. Braves and squaws alike looked up and stared with expressionless faces as Eklund rode into the camp. He bad heard the shooting and had been close enough to observe the results, and despite the violence of the moment he felt relief. Both Oates and Kinney had been renegades, bad for their own kind as wen as for the Indians. His own task would be easier with their interference past In the face of Man Walks Alone he read trouble, and his first words wqre direct -Is there sickness in the camp?” Uncertain now, the chief shook his head. Too much had been happening too fast, and he was at a loss. He unwrapped the blanket which he had worn, eyeing it doubtfully, half-fearfully, and cast it on the ground. “You ask about it once,” he intoned. “I not tell you then. But Kinney give it to me. .He” — pointing to Oates—"say it belong to dead man—who die of white man’s plague l” ’Tm afraid that's right, Chief,” Eklund agreed, and swung down from the saddle. "Someone stole it from Plenty Horses. Which shows that Dolf Kinney was no friend of yours.” He stooped, picked up the discarded blanket, walked across to where a fire blazed and threw it on. Then, looking sharply at the flushed face and unnaturally bright eyes of Running Fawn, he crossed to her. “She has the sickness,” he said gravely. “Tell your people to stay here!” be added sharply to the chief, as he saw terror coming into their faces. “It is too late to run. But I have medicine. I may be able to stop it before it gets well started. You will bring the white woman to help me.” Maa Walks Alone did not demur. He spoke the necessary orders and bared his own arm to the needle, as an example. In tUs,

Presently Hardest earn* up, smiling gravely at the sight ct Eklund. Their eyea met. held, the doctor turned back to his work, captaining arhat he wanted her to da. There were few words between them as the sun climbed above the mountains, and those only such as were necessary for the task. Eklund worked steadily, taring ah count of time, thankful to and that only Running Fawn eras actually Uh She, aa he had observed, bad liked to do one thing in contradiction to the wildness of her nature—fondle her father's blanket It might be possible still to check ah outbreak by vaccination. He had forgotten an about the army when Man Walks Alone approached him and pointed to where men in blue Were outlined against the horison — rank oa rank — though they waited motionless. “Is it a trap ?** the chief asked, and there was dignity in the question. “It is no trap.'* Eklund answered. “They came in case I failed. They will go away as I signal" He lifted hit hat waved, and presently the line of blue melted and was gone. “They had plenty of ammunition," he added. “Dolf Kinney was no real friend to the red man." It was late before the task was done—with the sun long set and cook fires fading in the night and the big camp asleep. Warriors had been busy washing off paint working with stoic calmness which reflected their faith in this man. Narcissa, watching and assisting through the long hours, marveled at his calmness and competency. It was not until he had cleansed his instruments and closed his bag that he saw how white she was, the weariness la her face. She swayed and was la his arms as he caught her, and then for both of them time stood stin. “You must think rm terribly fickle, Erd,” she whispered finally. "I came out here to marry one man— and now Fm kissing you! But I never knew what ii was to love a man until I met you!
