Better weather is promised soon. There may be a lot of rain, but weather forecasters say temperatures will rise and we can expect some spring-like weather. o b ■— I If the President would speed up government action on a dozen or so important problems, the people would like it better than if he Speeded down the highway at 90 miles an hour in a 55 mile zone, and to one of his very frequent vacations. <>■■—o Roads and highways in Adams county are again open and reported to be % in fair condition. Heavy loads are restricted on some county roads, but the main arteries of travel are ready for the week-end whirl. And say, it will pay you to drive with caution ... . | o o - Two and a half billion dollars were wagered last year on horse racing in the United States. During the same year, 26 million dollars were given to fight cancgt. Is it any wonder decent societies and groups like the Cancer Society have to keep begging for funds with which to operate. I o o—— This week will long be remem-, bered as for the worst spring snow and sleet storm in many years, but Decatur and Adams county were fortunate compared with neighboring cities and towns. Trees, utility poles and wires were down, and utility services were badly disrupted, but no lives were lost and we all got by in pretty good &ape. o—o In the average city of 5,000 population, statistics and research show, 22 persons will be treated tor cancer this year and 1,250 will eventually develop cancer, and if the present rate continues, 800 will finally die of the disease. Is it any wonder that all people should be concerned? Give now to your county Cancer fund. Send a check to Don Biebengh, treasurer, and help in the wfrk of conquering this ravisher.

G.O.P. political set-backs in Michigan and Texas have given the Democrats a new hope. The people apparently like the General, but have no faith in the Republican party and its promises. The farther we get from the last November campaign, the more we realize that Mr. Stevenson was a most unpopular candidate and the General was still riding high, his coat-tail hugged by all the little candidates in the G.0.P., including “the Fabulous One.” o—o We don’t realize what it is like to not be able to contact neighboring cities until we occasionally have a bad storm which disrups communication and other utilities. Employes of the Decatur utilities and also of Citizens Telephone Co. are to be highly complimented for their excellent and Untiring work in restoring lights and telephone service following this week's storm. Damage will be in the thousands in the Decatur area but we are all mighty thankful that not a life was lost. Street department employes had almost every Decatur street cleared within 24 hours after the sleet-faH. —o o-— The Very Rev. Msgr. J. J. Seimetz, named head of the new Huntington deanery created in the Fort Wayne Catholic diocese to include Catholics of Adams, Wells, Huntington, Wabash and Whitley counties, win do a great job in his newly added assignment. That is a foregone conclusion. He regards this and other appointments he has received, as duties and privileges -to-be par— i formed, not particularly honors. Msgr. Seimetz has a long record of accomplishments in his Parish and Diocese. Whenever a job is * needed to be done, he does it quickly and efficiently and without fanfare. For many years, Msgr. Seimetz has held the esteem and reverence of all of our citizenry, both Catholic and nonCatholic, all of whom are proud and pleased concerning his new appointment.

CHAPTER 26 CHAD ENDICOTT realized he had been a fool to allow Isabella Randall to leave the fort. He Had known there was some risk, and unconsciously he had weighed that risk against her necessity for getting away from the place, even for a little while. But it was not a decision he could explain to Colonel Randall. Clenching his teeth in his frustration. Chad slipped into a heavy winter jacket and strapped his gun to his side. He went directly to the stable and ordered one of the men to saddle a horse for him. Just as the soldier handed him the reins, he heard a shot, and then another. Digging his heels into the mount's aides, he crouched low as the animal leaped forward with a surprised maker. - Chad headed for the palisade gate on a dead run, slashing the animal's flanks with the ends of his reins. He caught the situation in a glance the moment he was through the gate. Isabella, her hair streaming in the wind, was coming up the slope from the Missouri, hunched down as best she could in the sidesaddle and sending the big mare along with all the speed she was capable of making. Half a dozen yelling Sioux braves were not far behind and gaining steadily on their lighter ponies. Private Saunders was nearly abreast of Isabella, twisted around in his saddle and' firing at the pursuing Indians. Scared to the point of panic, he was missing every shot Zack Cubberly,l angling in from the east, was considerably to the rear of Isabella He wap firing with his rifle, but he was too far away to be accurate. The Indians were glued to their mounts, their heads along their animal’s necks. Apparently they hoped to outrun Isabella's mare and head her off, intending to capture a white woman. Behind him Chad heard the insistent clangihg of the alarm inside the fort as someone beat furiously on the iron triangle which had been installed for this purpose. It relieved him a little. If Isabella could keep coming, there would soon be a covering fire. Chad was closing the distance now, and he could hear the steady crackle of gunfire as the men in j the fort opened up. Then, his horse caught a foot in a badger hole and stumbled. The horse went down on one front knee, throwing Chad from the saddle. As the horse turn- > bled over on its side, kicking vio- • Icntly. Chad let go of his rifle aad rolled head over heels, strain-

Miss Corelene Townsend and Tom Allwein visited Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Dick Shaw on Shelby, O. Mrs. Sam Henschen presided at meeting of Kirkland ladies club last night. | Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEK 0 0 Q. Is it necessary to shake hands with every member of a long receiving line? A. Usually it is. However, it is best to do what those ahead of you are doing. Also, it is important not to stop to chat with anyone when others are waiting in line behind you. Q. When a young man invites a girl from another town to his home for a weekend, is he supposed to send her the railroad ticket? A. No. She must take care of her transportation. Also, the girl should not accept an invitation of this kind, unless she receives one from the young man’s mother. Q. How many vegetables is it necessary to serve at a dinner? A. Two vegetables are sufficient.
ing desperately ip put enough distance between him and the falling animal so he wouldn’t' be crushed. He heard the pound of hoofs on the frozen ground. Saunders had outrun Isabella and was making for the fort Isabella was fifteen or twenty yards behind, her mare almost spent Now Chad could see her terror-stricken face. Zack was trailing Isabella by at least fifty yards, with two Sioux closing in on him. Another buck, his face hideously disfigured by vermilion stripes, was between Zack and Isabella, punishing his frothing horse violently in a frantic effort to close the last few feet before Isabella could get within effective protection of the fort Chad had his .41 in his hand and pulled down in a snap shot on the Indian. He missed. Instantly the Sioux swerved and bore down on Chad, swinging his rifle into firing position. Chad shot again, and hit the Indian’s horse. Before the brave could fire, his mount went down. As he hit the ground Chad threw a third shot The Indian twitched once and lay still. By now, the firing from the fort was a steady roar. The remaining Indians broke and swerved off, yelling and brandishing their new Henry rifles in defiance. Zack, coming in fast, got one before they escaped. Saunders had wheeled his horse and grabbed Isabella's mare by the bridle and stopped her. Chad got there just as she slid from the saddle. She was completely hysterical: her eyes were distended and unseeing. As he reached up tp help her to the ground, she flung herself at him and began to sob uncontrollably, her arms going around his neck like that of a drowning woman. He patted her comfortingly, then tried to peel her arms from his neck, but this only made her sob more violently and hang on more tightly. Chad was still trying to break her grip when Randall arrived, panting from his run. “Is'she all right?” Randall demanded. Chad nodded. “I think so. Just scared.” “So I sec,” Randall said unpleasantly, relieved enough over his wife’s safety to think of other things. "Isabella.” He put an arm around her. “Isabella.” She continued to cry, her back moving in great, shuddering sobs. She did not answer, nor did she relax her grip on Chad.’Thoroughly embarrassed, he reached behind his neck and, taking her by the wrists, forced her to let go.
Canada Bitter AfU.S.Over Envoy Suicide Blame Accusation By Probing Group For Suicide Leap WASHINGTON (UP)-The Senate Internal Security subcommittee planned today to push ahead with a general investigation <of U.S. diplomats in the Mideast despite Canada's bitterness over the suicide of its envoy, named in the Senate inquiry. Six of the nine subcommittee members signed a statemenet saying the group will continue in its “duty” to disclose ‘‘evidence. .. that certain foreign nationals have engaged in. . .Communist activity in the United States.” The statement was its only commentary of the death leap in Cairo Thursday of Herbert Norman, Canadian ambassador to Egypt. Subcommittee counsel Robert Morris said March 12 the subcommittee had “a great deal of information” to the effect that Norman was a Communist. Canadians Hurl Charges Feelings in Canada, which said Norman was cleared of such charges, ran so high that one member of the Canadian Parliament called his suicide nothing short of “murder by slander." Spokesmen of opposing political parties pointed directly at the Senate subcommittee as responsible for Norman's death. Members of the U.S. Congress wfere extremely reluctant to comment. One of the few to discuss the affair publicly. Sen. Hubert H, Humphrey (D-Minn), a member of the Senate. Foreign Relations Committee, told reporters: “I for one deeply regret what has happened. Our relations with Canada and the people of that great country are far too precious and important to be marred or endangered. This situation will require the most sober and calm reflection.” The first official statement by the U.S. government was likewise restrained. It was a message from Secretary of State John Foster Dulles to Canadian Foreign Minister Lester Pearson expressing Dulles’ "regret and. . .sincere
As he brought her arms down, she tried again to cling to him. Randall, angry as well as embarrassed, was red in the face. He said sharply, ’lsabella,*' but still she didn't answer or act as if she knew he was there. Randall grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her. "Isabella, you’re all right You hear me, you’re all right.” Thoroughly exasperated, he slapped her smartly gcross the cheek. “Isabella, stop ft now." Chad winced at the slap, and ft and all said apologetically, “Sometimes that's the only way you can get them to settle down.” Isabella's sobs began to grow softer and then she stopped crytig. Randall turned to Sergeant Anderson. "Sergeant, see that Mrs. Randall gets safely back to her quarters. I’ll be along in a few minutes. Take the men with <ou.” As they moved back up the Slope to the tort, Randal) turned to Chad. He was still red-faced, still short of breath, and Chad could guess how sick he was from a thumping headache. “There are several things that will require some explanation, Lieutenant.” Randall said tn a hard, biting voice. “1 hope you have satisfactory answers.” Chad flushed. “They wouldn’t be satisfactory to you, sir.” “I’ll be the judge of that” Randall’s tone still held a sharp edge. "Just how did Mrs. Randall happen to be absent from the fort When I had a standing order that no one was to leave without my knowledge?" “She asked for a horse, sir. She said she wanted to go out." "And you provided her with a horse and an orderly just because she asked for it?” "Yes. sir.” “And who gave you permission to leave the grounds ?’’ "No one, sir.” "Well, it seems that you have taken a great deal upon yourself,” Randal] said thinly. “Can you explain why Mrs. Randall seems to have so much influence over you ? Was it something you would do for a very close, or shall we say, intimate friend?" Chad stiffened. "If you please, sir, if there is any dereliction of duty on my part, shall we stick to that subject?" “We will, Lieutenant, we certainly will,” Randall said. "Go to your quarters and remain there until you hear further from me. You are under arrest." There’s mere dark plotting against Chad on the homefront, too. Read Chapter tomorrow.

Some officials were reported to have telephoned the Canadian Embassy here to say, “This is a hell of a note.” Administration officials expressed fear privately the incident may put a temporary chill on U.S. relations with Canada. But these officials quickly added they do not expect any real break in this country’s long record of friendship with its northern neighbor
