This is the kind of weather with rain and sleet and freezes and thaws, when colds and influenza lurk around every corner, ready to send us to bed. Experts tell us to keep our feet dry and don’t get exposed to the elements any more than necessary. If you feel a cold coming on, consult your doctor. , o »■ - The President starts a second four year term today. There is a lot of uncertainty in the world and in the nation. How the winds of fate will blow, no one knows. Faced at home, with the thought of continued inflation and the dire results of a sudden deflation and faced abroad with the danger of war, it is enough to try anyone’s soul. Perhaps the best prayer any of us could utter at this time would be for “good health” for the President. o—w— Programs and premium lists have been circulated for the annual St. Marys-Blue Creek township Farmers Institute, scheduled for Pleasant Mills high school gymnasium all day Friday February 1. The St. Marys-Blue Creek event is one of the oldest and mbst popular in this area and always draws a large crowd. Officers of the organization include Kenneth Mitchell, chairman; Eli«ha Merriman, vicechairman; Mrs. Ben McCullough, secretary; Mrs. Oscar Young, assistant secretary and Mrs. A. J. •Davison, treasurer. O ' 0 There has been a lot of talk lately about the Fort Wayne Pro basketball team being moved from that city to a larger center. Perhaps the story was manufactured to create new interest in the fading enthusiasm. At any rate no one except the owner of the erstwhile team seems to be shedding any tears. Many sports enthusiasts don’t seem to get stirred up over the situation, Inowing there still remains high school basketball, high school football and many other sports endeavors to warrant their attention. Perhaps the biggest move toward killing the pro sport around here was made when Hilliard Gates, the nation’s leading basketball radio broadcaster, was • relieved of the sportscasting of

the games, which incident occurred at the beginning of thia season. —o— *-O— Albert H. Cole, president of the Indiana Taxpayers Association has come up with an interesting question of importance to all taxpayers. He contends that Abolition of the 15-cent state property tax is laudable, but he continues that 14 cents of this 15 cent levy goes to projects which cannot be abandoned, including seven cents for the schools and seven cents for teachers* pensions. If these amounts are abolished, they will have to be raised in some other way. The 15-cent state property tax raises about ten million dollars annually. But Mr. Cole stops there, and does not offer a remedy. We certainly need tax relief, io let's all give it more than just a passing thought ■ o ■* ■ ■ A Fort Wayne man murdered his wife and five-year-old daughter in cold blood. He signed a complete confession and immediately newspapers and reporters started building up sympathy for him. As reporters and as good i citizens, we should cease to do this and permit justice to take charge. The killer certainly 1 should have justice, but not pity; and by all means he should have his day in court. Any newspaper, j which explores peoples' hearts, to build up sympathy for an admitted killer, merely to get a few readers, is a traitor to all newspapers hold dear and the practice should not be tolerated. 1 i o— —o > Don’t let the fast talkers, who i are in favor of the two cents gas J tax increase, confuse you when they say it is a slight increase over the present gasoline tax. It is a 33 percent rise and that’s quite an increase in any language. Certainly the proposal should be considered, the Same as all legislative questions, but let’s don’t jump into something without more consideration. The new tax, no doubt, would raise the money so sorely needed for roads, but it also would establish a huge fund, which closely and honestly guarded, could be misappropriated and dissipated. We’d better all give it some serious thought. |

This depends upon how early in the evening the refreshments are served, but probably about 30 minutes after finishing is the usual time io leave. A guest at any affair should never “eat and run.” Q. If a man and woman are

CHAPTER 18 IK/IRS. GORDONSTOUN glanced IVI at the photograph of Perry, then quickly away again. But, as I though drawn to it by an ashamed fascination, she glanced back, kept her gaze on it for a few moments. “Well?" she said without emotion. "The man in that photograph is called Perry," Casson went on. "He lives in London. He is unmarried. 1 know for a certainty that he has blackmailed three people. For his first victim he used the name Martin. His victim committed suicide. For the second coup he used a second name His second victim is still alive and will remain alive for at least twenty years. That means two decades of fear in case the blackmailer appears again, You an the third victim, and with you he will have used yet another false name. 1 do not know what it la . . .?*, He paused, hoping that she would automatically answer his question and thus commit herself. She said nothing. “In the first two cases," he went on, "Perry blackmailed his victims for things which they had not done.” Her eyelids flickered. "When he blackmailed you yesterday morning he blackmailed you also for something which you had not dona “Perry pointed out to you that if you did not pay what he demanded he would see to it that the authorities, or your husband” —again her eyelids flickered —"or someone dear to you would be made aware at his charges. He explained to you that you dare not take this risk because you could never disprove the allegation. He pointed out that, for the same reason, you would not dare take him to court. He promised you that he would never visit you again, reassuring you with his theory that the clever criminal never milks the same victim twice. He then suggested that you should accompany him to Gamman's Bank, where you have your account; that you should draw ,a sum of money from the bank in pound notes—a sum you could Just afford without declaring it to your husband | —and that you should hand it to

walking together during a rain, and both have unbrellas, should each one use his own unmbrella? A. This might prove awkward. 1 It would be much better if both , were to walk under the man’s larger umbrella. 1 Q. Is it proper to eat the fruit, sometimes served in a cold drink, > or is this supposed to serve mere- • ly for flavor and decoration? A. This is optional; take it or . leave it. 1 O — Household Scrapbook 1 | BY ROBERTA LEE Q , — ... .— Q I Whiter Clothes If white clothes have turned yelI low from washings, put them into a boiler half-full of water, to which ■ a handful of salt and washing soda . mixed has been added. Bring to a ' boil and keep simmering for a few hours. Rinse clothes in plenty i of cold water and hang in the sun. ■ They will come out perfectly white. Repeat a few days later if necessary.

him m the street outside the I bank. When you had done that he disappeared.” i She put down her teacup. i "You knew he was going to I ... to do this?” Casson did not i reply. "Why did you not have him arrested?” she went on. Casson spread out his hands in a gesture of confession. “1 failed . . .” he began. "Failed?” she said, her voice rising slightly. "Yes, indeed. Sou . failed to warn me. You allowed me to be blackmailed. You let . me be put in a position from which 1 can never extricatq myself. You let me brand myself i guilty of something 1 had never done. AH because you were careless enough to fail!” "I did not know that much," he ; explained. "1 knew Perry had selected a victim on this side of I the Square...." i “But you must have known I who it was. . . “No. ..." "Then how did you know that i he had chosen this side of the < Square?" ~ ( i “I followed him, Mrs. Gordonstoun. I followed him night and i day." i. i "Oh,” she said. “I see. 1 am I sorry.” i “I had hoped,” he continued, < "to get from him some indica- i tion of his victim’s identity, to | warn the victim, and to trap Perry as he jpounced.” < "Why have you done all this, 1 > Mn Duker ?’’ - —•, “Some men coUect postage I Stamps,” he repHed. “Some, like 1 your husband stalk stags. 1 col- < lect human 'beings who live i along the fringes of illegality.” i "It must be an amusing game," she observed coldly. i “In this case,” he went on, “I < am hunting the man Perry because one man has died and another goes in tear, and a Woman, 1 a brave woman, will have nlgnt- I mares.” ' | “Yes," she answered, speaking < very softly. "Yes. Naturally. I I am sorry for your sake that you failed to trap Mr. Perry.” I Casson smiled. i "1 didn’t fall.” -. ■ ■ : "But you said . . . you mean you’re going to arrest him? And bring him into a court?” "With your help."

"Oh." "You can give evidence against ' him. That evidence will send him j t to gaoL Tour name will never 1 be mentioned in court.

She indicated the photograph of Bagot “This man. < He said his name was Fenton. < He had the . . . the impertinence i to suggest to me that I was ... 1 that I was . . . something that 1 was utterly untrue. He suggested 1 that my husband would not be 1 pleased to learn of it” "But your husband would never believe him!" 1 “Are you married, Mr. Duker?” I He shook his head and she ap- < peared to muse, absent-mindedly removing her rings and placing them on the tea-tray. When she spoke again he was startled by the cold sincerity in her voice. 1 “Marriage is a curious expert- ' ence, Mr. Duker. It teaches you many things.. It teaches you, tor j example, that life is a mixture 1 of”—she hesitated for a second —"of love and discipline and pettiness. Fenton’s threat was fit only for a cheap novelette. But i there is a part of everybody's * mind which yearns to believe in cheap novelettes. It is trash and it is untrue, and that is why people believe it "Neil, my husband," she went i on, "is a good man; He is what 1 my grandfather would have called an upright man. I am very fond of him. He is devoted to me. ; He is also devoted to his principles. Neil might not believe this absurd accusation: but it would 1 stick in his mind.

Two One-Vehicle Accidents Saturday ; Neither Driver Hurt Saturday Evening Two one-vehicle accidents occurred at the same time Saturday evening in different parts of the county. At 8:30 p. m., Floyd E. Steen, 48, of Portland, lost control of his truck as he headed south on a county road southeast of Geneva. The truck hit a drainage ditch and then went into an embankment, overturning. Damage was estimated at S2OO. Steen was charged with not having an operator’s license. He will appear in Earl Da Wald's justice of the peace court in Geneva tonight. Sheriff Merle Affolder and state trooper Dan Kwasneski investigated/ At the same time, a car driven by James Myers, 53, of Decatur route six, left the road at the intersection of state highways 124 and 101 south of Pleasant Mills. The accident was reported Sunday morning to state police. The Myers car failed to make the jog in toe road and ran out on the Kenneth Parrish property into a field, damaging some fence and also hitting a highway sign. Myers told toe investigating officer,- state trooper Al Coppes, that his windows were steamed up and he did not see the jog. Damage was estimated at 3175 to the car, S6O to toe fence and sls to the sign. Stales Fatal Doses Os Drugs Prescribed Physician's Case Is Brought To Climax EASTBOURNE, England (IB - (hie of Britian’s foremost narcotics experts testified today that Dr. John Bodkin Adams prescribed fatal doses of drugs for a patient in toe last 13 days of her life. . The prosecution brought its case against Adams to a climax with expert testimony by Dr. Arthur Henry Doutowaite, president of the British Gastro-Enterolbgical Society and renowned senior physician of Guy’s Hospital, London. Douthwaite described that total amount of drugs and barbiturates prescribed for Mrs. Edith Alice Morrell, a wealthy widow, during toe entire period Adams treated her, and during toe 13 days before she died in 1950. “If the drugs prescribed in those 13 days of November were used on the patient WhafWtrtild have been the result?” Deputy Prosecutor Malcolm Morris asked Douthwaite. "Death,” Doutowaite replied. He said toe dose of barbiturates in the last 13 days of Mrs. Morrell's life in November, 1950, was double that prescribed for October. The Douthwaite testimony was toe high point at the start of toe •second week of a preliminary hearing before five magistrates to determine whether Adams should stand trial for murder. INAUGURATION (Cnntlnnfd from Pant Om> the world have become increasingly interdependent, •with mutual responsibility extending far beyond the borders of a single country. He said that the economic needs of all countries made isolation “an impossibility.” , “Not even America’s prosperity could long survive if other nations did not also prosper,” he said. "No nation can longer be a fortress, lone and strong and safe. And any people, seeking such shelter for themselves, can now build only their prison.” Ignores Domestic Problems The President pointed out that the United States must recognize her “deep involvement in the destiny of men everywhere” and accordingly, should attempt to strengthen toe authority of toe United Nations. "In that body rests the best hope of our age for the assertion of that law by which all nations may live in dignity,” he said. The President ignored domestic problems except as they are related to toe international scene. He concentrated instead on peace. “We look upon this shaken earth," he said, “and we declare our firm and fixed purpose—toe building of a peace with justice in a world where , moral law prevails.” . “The building of such a peace is a bold and solemn purpose. To proclaim it is easy. To serve it will be hard. And to attain it, we must be aware of its full meaning and ready to pay its full price.” Welcome Awaits Satellites He envisioned a United States friendly and helpful to all nations that are or would be free. "When, in time of want or peril, they ask our help, they may honorably receive it; for we no more seek to buy their sovereignty than we would sell our own—sovereignty is never bartered among free men." He said the United States honored the aspirations of the Soviet satellite nations which want freedom. “We seek neither their military alliance nor any artificial imitation of our society,” he said. “But they can know the warmth of the welcome that awaits them when, as must be, they join again the ranks of freedom.”

Germany still stands tragically divided. So is the whole continent divided. And t so, too, is all toe world. "Hie divisive force is internat tional communism and the power , that it controls.
