Milder weather will be welcomed by everyone. If you plan to limber up your family auto over the weekend, drive carefully. That is one national campaign which never - ends, because we never reach our quota of safe drivers. ■ -o -o— A Huntington school boy was the victim of an accidental shooting tragedy Thursday afternoon, when a group of young high school students were examing a shot gun. It again proves that we ' can t be too careful around firearms. However, all the preaching of safety won’t bring back the life of the dead boy. o o — There is serious danger of floodwaters in the southern part of the county and also in the ----- lower sections cf Decatur. Several inches of rainfall have been added to the water from the I melting snow and sleet. No water damage has been reported to date but if rain continues, numerous basements will start to fill up.

Every Decatur Church' will be open to the public tomorrow. A Church is a wonderful place to spend an hour or so on Sunday and attending Church is the finest way to start the week. Good sermons and seasonal Easter music will be your reward, plus a better internal feeling all week long. Plan to attend the Church of your choice tomorrow. O ■■<>■- , One out of every three cancer patients in the United States is saved now to live and lead a normal life. This is possible by cancer research through the assistance of the National Cancer Society, which finances the huge life-saving project. Because of the pennies and nickels you generously give for constant fighting of the disease, thousands of lives are being saved each year. Be sure and be a contributor to your Cancer fund drive now in progress. — o—o The postal service belongs to the people. We doubt very seriously if the Postmaster General can discontinue a service or a whole day’s delivery, without an act of Congress. Postmaster General Summerfield, attempting to get his way with a budget-mind-ed Congress, is threatening to stop Saturday mail delivery. The people of the United States wouldn’t stand for this long delay, even if it were legal. Threat is a poor method to use any time and this particular threat would squeeze a lot of innocent people, especially those in the rural areas of the nation. —-o •

CHAPTER 27 Alvin stiner was a paswt man, but now that virtue was being sorely tried. Here it was late February, the winter almost spent, and General Tipton was still alive. Every day for almost two months Stiner had expected to hear he was dead, but he hung on, a skeleton of a man who, perhaps by sheer human will, was successfully defying death. From what the General had said—and Myra Grunwald had privately substantiated it—Stiner knew that Elizabeth Tipton would be brought face to face with the problem of making a living as soon as her father the General died. That would be the proper time to propose marriage. It must, of course, be tied in with Chad’s death. Returning to his flat one night, he found Jean Beauvais waiting in front of hiS door. “Time you was gettin’ home,” Beauvais said in a hard, biting voice. “You owe me money.’’ Stiner Was not sure which twin it was until he was close enough to see the scar that twisted one side of his face. He said, “I’m glad to see you, Jean. When did you get back?” “You owe me two thousand dollars,” Beauvais said. Stiner unlocked the door and threw it open. “You'll get it if you’ve earned it” He got a light going, and when he turned, he saw Beauvais had come in and closed the door and stood with his back to it, dark, malevolent eyes filled with hatred. The room seemed filled with the smell of him. “I’ve earned it,” Beauvais said. Stiner shoved both hands into his coat pockets. He habitually carried a derringer in the righthand pocket, and now his fingers closed around it Beauvais was a killer when he was aroused, and something had aroused him. “Where’s Rene?” Stiner asked. “Dead,” Beauvais said. “Gimme my money, Stiner, or I’K leave you like they left Rene.” Stiner shoved his right hand back into Jtus pocket and gripped the derringer. “What happened?” “We cleaned the fort out. Burned it to the ground, but Rene got shot afore the ruckus was over. Somebody scalped him. Must o’ been Cubberly. Now I want my money. Rene’s too.” Stiner said, “Did anyone get away?” “No. Not even the women.” “The officers?” Beauvais laughed. “We got ’em. Mebbe I should’ve fetched their scalps to prove it No way you can prove It now until the tee

0 0 Modern Etiquette BY ROBERTA LEE — -4 Q. I have been ■ invited to a "trousseau tea.” Exactly what is this, and am I supposed to take a gift? A. This is a very intimate tea given by a bride-elect for her best girl friends, for the purpose of showing her trousseau. And you are not supposed to take a gift. Q. Is it necessary for the hostess of a house-warming to write “thank you” notes to all the guests who brought gifts? A. Yes, and as soon as possible. It would be rude and unappreciative not to do so, . ■ ’ Q. Is it proper to refer to a lawyer socially as “Counselor,”, whets introducing him? A. A lawyer is correctly addressed as “Mister,” unless he is a judge when that title is used. Slow Boat To China ALBANY, N. Y. — (W — More than 170 years ago, the ship Experiment was the first to sail from here for Canton, China. That was in 1785. Two years later the Experiment, an 80-ton sloop, returned to Albany.

goes out Pm the last man out o’ that country, and I darned near didn’t make it” Stiner relaxed, the feeling of exultation growing in him. “You wouldn’t lie to me, Jean. You know what I’d do to you when 1 found out” He paused, and then added, “I’m sorry about Rene.” Beauvais lifted his head to stare at Stiner. “Sorry.” He swallowed. “He was my brother. We growed up together, lived together, fought together. I never done nothin' without Rene till now, never went anywhere. Now he’s gone and you're sorry.” Stiner saw the misery that was in the man and knew that he had loved his brother. More, than that, Beauvais blamed him for Rene’s death. Stiner said quickly, "I’D go to the bank first thing in the morning for your money. Til meet you in the Red Candle at noon.” Beauvais drew his knife and balanced it in his hand. ‘TU take it now, Stiner.” “I don’t have It If you kill me, you’U never get it” Stiner waited, eyes locked with Beauvais’, knowing that his life hung on the slender thread of the crazed man’s passion. The seconds dragged by. then slowly the kpife slid back into its scabbard. "All right,” Beauvais said. “You’d better be there." “I will. Now I want this news to get around. There’s another thousand In it for you if you drop in at a few saloons tonight and mention what happened. Just say you saw it from some ridge.” It was dangerous, and Stiner saw that Beauvais knew it, but a thousand dollars was a great deal of money to him. Stiner said, “Three thousand dollars is enough to start a business in Santa Fe. Jpr anywhere, else.” . Beauvais fiodded. and without a word wheeled out of the room. • • • Th next morning Stiner went to the Grunwald house as soon as he felt sure Otto was gone. He had seen very little of Myra this winter, and when she opened the door, he saw the pleasure that his visit brought her. “Come in, Alvin," she said. “You haven’t been. here since Christmas. I call that neglect.” “I plead guilty, and I’m sorry because it’s my loss.” He asked, “Otto here?" “He’s been gone for an hour.” She stood looking at him. He smiled .and, putting his arm around her, drew her to him and kissed her. He said. “I just received word that Fort Butterfield has been wiped out by the

Lebanon Votes Approval For Ike Doctrine First Arab State To Give Parliamentary Approval For Plans By EUGENE McLOUGHUN United Press Staff Correspondent The tiny Mediterranean nation of Lebanon today became the first Arab state to give parllaamentary approval of the Elsenhower Doctrine for the Middle East. By a 30-2 vote the Lebanese legislature endorsed the March 16 action of its government in wholeheartedly accepting the U.S. plan to combat Communist infiltration in Middle Eastern countries. The parliamentary action prompted the resignations of four members who protested Lebanon was turning its back on concerted action with other Arab states. But Lebanon, half Christian and half Moslem, is the most westernized of the Arab nations and the protest was not likely to have any great effect on the government. More Disunity Reported Another report of disunity among the Arab nations came from Amman. Diplomatic sources in Jerusalem said King Hussein of Jordan has served notice on Egypt. Syria and Saudi Arabia that unless they honor their obligations to replace Britain’s annual subsidy he will accept American aid. On the other side of the ledger a joint Egyptian-Sudanese communique issued in Cairo said Sudan had endorsed Egypt’s policy of “positive neutrality’’ and nonalignment with either the East or the West. U.N. Assistant Secretary General Ralph Bunche left for UJf. headquarters in New York today with a report to his boss on the success of the U.N. Emergency Force in preventing a new Middle East conflict. He gave reporters the impression his job was strictly to survey the operation and execute decisions made by Secretary General Dag Hammarskjold. He said he had made no “agreements” with Egyptian officials. In Washington, U.S. officials said that if Egypt does not permit Israeli ships to use the Suez Ca-

Sioux. It can’t be verified by the army until the first boat gets up the river, but I'm sure my information is accurate.” She was not surprised. She said, "You know how army wives talk. Since the Fetterman massacre has been verified, our talk will be believed." The morning light falling through an east window touched her face, and when he thought of the fresh young beauty that marked Elizabeth’s body, Myra looked old and worn. He would never have to use her again, he thought "I’ve got to go,” he said, and kissed her again. He had the feeling she knew this was the end. He wondered what would happen to her. Would she accept her dull life with Otto and be happy? Or would aha blackmail him by threatening to tell Elizabeth what his past had been? He dropped into the Red Candle shortly before noon. Armand came to him at once. "Beauvais is waiting for you." He leaned forward, asking in a low tone, “Is it true that Fort Butterfield has been wiped out?” Stiner nodded. “I’m afraid so.” He struggled to restrain a smile. This could not have worked out better. Stiner found Beauvais in a back room. The man was drunk enough to be ugly, but he said nothing when Stiner laid the money In front of him. "Want to count it?” Stiner asked. Beauvais shook his head. He stared at Stiner, dark eyes blinking. Stiner backed to the door. “Get out of town, Jean. You’re blaming me for Rene’s death, but I had nothing to do with it If you talk, you’ll put a rope on your own neck. Pm too big for you in this town.” Beauvais said nothing. He just sat there and stared. There was something dead about the man, something that died with Rene. Stiner turned quickly and left the room. That afternoon he left for Omaha. There was much to be done. Within a tew weeks, wagons would be rolling westward toward army posts. He was gone for six days, and when he returned, he found a piece of paper that had been shoved under his door, a scrawled note saying General Tipton wanted to see him. Does the dying General want to see Stiner about Elisabeth’s future? Read Chapter 28 tomorrow.

Eban told the United States Friday that his country intends to try to send ships through the canal and that big trouble would develop if Nasser barred them.
