Prayers for victims of wars being fought throughout the world today can be given by attending church Sunday. o o The best education for future automobile drivers can be given by parents who teach their children to obey all the traffic laws while riding their bicycles. Parents also should set an example by careful driving. —O O Its a strange world. People of many countries are giving their \ lives in an effort to vote. Many Americans have to be begged and coaxed to go to the polls and others are just too busy to spare the few minutes required. o o For 45 minutes Rear Admiral George Dufek had no worries about war, taxes or the uncertainties of life. This week he landed a plane at the South Pole and headed the third party ever to reach that remote and chilly area. An endorsement from the people who know you best is the one that counts most. The Optimist Club of Terre Haute has named Mayor Ralph Tucker the “outstanding man of the year” for having done more than any other to aid youth and curb juvenile delinquency.

Lemon, twice elected mayor .of traditionally Republican Bloomington, as candidate for secretary of state. His ability as an administrator has been recognized by his employment as a city manager. It is important that all candidates on a ticket be supported but the office of secretary of state is of especial importance locally as the vote for it determines the make up of the next election boards and the number of delegates to state conventions. In the past many people have voted for governor and failed to vote for the other candidates. A safe way is to vote straight Democratic. ——o— —o— — The staff of the Decatur Daily Democrat will join thousands of other newsmen in the United States tabulating the election votes so you may know the results as fast as they are compiled at the precinct level. The United Press alone will have 6,000 editorial workers who will count votes at the rate of 140,000 a minute. As usual the Decatur Daily Democrat has made arrangements to furnish all Adams county returns. For the benefit of those who can forego the excitement of seeing the results posted in our window as soon as precincts report, we again have made arrangements for the returns to be kept current on the tape recorder provided through this newspaper and the Citizens Telephone company. Remember the phone number is 3-2171. Also remember that unless you vote your ballot won’t be among those counted.

Monroe Tile Ditch Staked Out Friday Herman Moellering, Adams county surveyor, headed a party Friday which staked out the town of Monroe file ditch, which runs a distance of 3,565 feet northeast of the town of Monroe. The ditch was viewed by John BaltzeU and Charles Marchand. Assisting Moellering in the staking of the ditch were Dick Boch, deputy surveyor, and Charles Burkhart, county employe. MoeUering said today that the work on the ditch is scheduled to be completed this fall. Recent expansion in Monroe has necessitated the improvements in the town’s drainage facilities. Since the county does not own the equipment to do this type of work, it wUI be necessary to let bids for the contract. This is one of six'ditches now in the process of completion, including one at Geneva.

SYNOPSIS Connie Barton's suspicions were aroused by her husband Steve's clumsy excuses for his regular Wednesday night absences. She trailed him to a private dance studio and then realized he was taking dance lessons as a pleasant surprise tor her. Keeping herself unnoticed. Connie . watched-the door vf-ttre studio 'till Steve left, and went in tor a private word with his teacher. She found the instructor. Anita Farrell sprawled on the door—shot dead. In the corpse’s hand was a paper silhouette of erself. Confused, Connie’s first though* was to cover up for Steve. She grabbed the silhouette and the appointment book at the unattended reception desk outside and went nome to confront Steve. She had to believe his assertions of innocence. . Police promptly got the names ot all Miss Farrell’s pupils and began checking to identify the 7 p. m. Wed nesday waltzer. When Lieut Bolling asked Steve his lesson time, Steve said 8 o'clock Saturday. From the stolen appointment book Steve took the lesson time of a Ralph Tolley whom Bolling hasn't contacted—ret Using the name Hester Frost and with a plan in mind to save S'eve. Connie got Miss Farrell's teaching job. Connie noticed a ventilator in th e._ ceiling- at Studio K —th*-mttftir'r room—and set about exploring the possibility of the gunshot having come from there. While up on a catwalk over the false ceiling, she heard from the studio next to'hers a man and a girl arguing whether he should chance going to "Rhinebeck Place." That Is where the late Miss FarreF lived, at No. IL Connie phones Steve and tells him to meet her there. When she arrives she spies a determined young man in a hurry. CHAPTER 11 The young man bounced past me, his heels beating a frenetic rhythm on the sidewalk. He was a good looking kid, but at the moment his face was clouded with trouble. It wasn’t a face built for that. This boy looked as though he should have been laughing it up with the crowd at the comer drug store back home; 1 hoped my hunch was wrong; as I watched him over my shoulder I hoped he would turn into one of the other houses on the block. But it was Anita Farrell’s apartment house he went into. J hurried back to number 11. As I entered the vestibule the inside door was just settling back into its frame. I re-opened it an inch or two and listened. Footsteps were thudding- on the stair carpeting. They stopped, and I heard a strong, rough voice say, “Where you headed, son?” The next voice was the one I had heard from the catwalk over the Crescent School My hunch had been right; this young man had just hurried down here - from the studio next to mine. “What d’ya mean, where am I headed?” he said. “Who are you?” .... “I. Work..for the city, son. Police department” "The police . . . what are you doing here?" “Haven’t you any idea?" "No . . ." "Where you headed, son?” “To see some friends pf mine,” the young man said. He spoke easily. If he had anything to bd nervous about he wasn’t showing it "They live on the top floor. I just dropped ia to say hello." “What’s the name of your friends?’.’ ..... "Martin. Janie and Ed Martin." “Martin. Then’s nobody named !

I Household Scrapbook BY ROBERTA LEK O ,— : O Curtains To prevent curtains from becoming soiled or water-soaked sew small snaps to the bottom corners and the corresponding snaps about a third from the top. Before retiring, the lower snaps can be fastened to the upper snaps and the curtains will be out of the way. Bread The thinnest slices of bread or cake can be cut if the knife is heated until quite hot, or dipped in boiling water for a few minutes. Wipe the blade dry before cutting. Cut Flower Cut flowers will keep quite a bit longer if the water in which they are placed is salted.

Martin lives in this building.” “Sure they do ... 9 Rhinebeck Place. That’s what they told me over the phone." . "This isn’t 9, son. It’s IL" I let the door swing closed. I hurried out of the vestibule of number 11 and into the vestibule Os number 9. The name Martin was not under any of the mailboxes. I kept moving until I was safely in the vestibule of number 7, but my precaution was needless. The young man didn’t think it necessary because of the cop to go through the motion of visiting the phantom Martins. He breezed right past number 9 on his way toward Christopher Street I set out after him. I knew now that the apartment he was interested in was Anita Farrell's, The first step in discoverfng why would be to find out who this young man was. He turned left on Christopher toward Sheridan Square. I went as far as Christopher, then stopped, realizing that I mustn't follow him. He hadn’t expected to find a policeman on duty at Anita’s apartment. 1 hadn’t, either. There was a possibility that Steve would make the same mistake. I would have to wait for him here, warn him against blundering into the police as the young man had. I was beginning to worry about what was taking Steve so long when a cab pulled up to the curb and stopped. The driver leaned out at me. “You Mrs. Barton?” "Yes.” "Hop in. Your husband sent me to pick you up.” "Pick me up . . . where is he?" "At the Feather Club. If he’s gone when you get there, you’re to ask the bartender for a message." I didn’t get this at all "Was my husband sober?” s —"Far as 1 could tell" "Where was he when you saw him?" "Outside the Feather Club. I was parked there. What’s wrong . . . don’t you want me to take you to him?” “Well . . . yes, I suppose so." I got into the cab. "This is nice of you, thanks." “It’s an easy ten bucks. Thank you.” Ten dollars. That was im-portantmernsy-ta our Yaiiiliy. So it was important that I join Steve at the Feather Club. I hoped it was more important than finding out who the young man in Anita’s place was, and why he was there. The Feather Club was a tourist trap on Seventh Avenue below Sheridan Square. It was too early in the. evening for the nearly naked ladies whose blown-up pictures decorated the front of the joint to be in action. I got out of the cab and headed for the silver door between the girls. Steve stepped out of it to meet me, He drew me to one side.

(J r— ...... V I Modern Etiquette | BY ROBERTA LIE o -o Q. Some of my friends, when they catch my eye in church, smile and bow, or wave their hands at me, even though the service is going on. Is this proper? A. Ordinarily, in church, you may smile at friend — but never actually bow. To wave the hand is exceeding wrong. Q. There’s to be a shower given for my fiancee soon. Am I supposed to give her a corsage to wear on that occasion? A. This is customary in some communities, and in others it isn’t. Personally, I don’t think it necessary. Q. Is the dessert at dinner considered a separate course? A. Yes.

“Connie, the guy's inside. 1 * “What guy?” “The one we’re looking for." “But, Steve, how do you know?” “He was down at Rhinebeck "You’ve been there already?” "Sure, and he was hanging around number 11. Then he got into the yard behind it from Greenwich Street, but something scared him away . . .” “The cope,” I said. 'There’s a cop on duty there.” * “Oh," Steve said. “And anyway, he isn’t the one I phoned you about My guy was there, too. And the cops scared him away.” “What?” "Yes. That’s a real popular spot Anita’s apartment” ‘Tell me about your guy.” 1 told him about my guy, and I said, "Now you tell me about your guy.” “I’ve told you all 1 know. Etecept that I followed him here... he's here now.” "We’ve got to know more.” "Yes. Connie, I may be pre. Judiced, but I think he’d just love to tell you all about himself.” “Oh? Oh, yes." I had forgotten I was a blonde. I got out my lipstick. "Describe him for me.” “He’s at the bar . . . sitting right in front of the cash register. "Don’t go far away, Steve.” “Don’t worry about that” 1 waltzed into the Feather Club, spotted the cash register and climbed up on a stool two down from the man in front of it The bartender accosted ma I ordered a sherry. I looked in the mirror at Steve’s man. He was looking at a lusty redhead at the far end of the bar. I had competition. My first impression of the man was that he was proud of himself. He liked his looks, the cut of his clothes, the debonaire way he smoked his king sized, filter Upped cigarette. Actually, be was handsome after a rather blatant fashion. I couldn't ten how tall he was, but he was slender, dark, and he had big brown eyes, bedroom eyes, a bedroom with a Hollywood sized bed in it. It was with surprise that I noted he did not have a mustache. He definitely gave ths initial impression of having a well-waxed, Adolphe Menjou type mustache. caught me examining him. I let my eyes linger admiringly on his face a moment.* I almost smiled at him, but not quite. I let him know that I, while not totally inaccessible, would be a challenge to his allure. Then I dropped my eyes. I took a dainty sip of my sherry. I sneaked a glance at the red-haired woman. She was glaring at me, and I knew that I was in. ----- One man becomes sure Steve is the •Waltzer’ sought by police, tomorrow, fan Chapter 18 qC “Th* Honda Died
