Use your own judgment. —■ —— People in this area are becoming budget minded and tax minded. This attitude, if continued into that period when next year’s levies are proposed, will serve a wonderful purpose. Those who set the proposed rates are more inclined to shave here and there if they know they are being watched by the public. It’s a fine situation, and should always be that way. The only way we can have lower taxes at any level is for the public to adopt a watch-dog of blossoms and blooms and all public money proposed to be used. — S—_o—o_ — » Governor Handley seems perfectly satisfied with the investigations being conducted into the affairs of the Craig administration, even though be knows all the skull-duggery of the last four years was done by members of his own party. At least the probes take the heat temporarily off the Handleyites who have given us by far the highest state taxes in our history. It also relieves somewhat the pressure of patronage and the popping off of some of his hirelings. Nevertheless it is a Republican baby through and through. o— —0 Schools resume classes next Monday after a short Easter holiday and next vacation will be the long sutnmer period.

CHAPTER 35 SPRING is like a tonic. It cleanses a man’s blood stream, ft clears his brain. It is the fulfillment of nature’s promise that the death which winter brings is not the eternity it seems; that life returns even to the prairies. But it was more than all that to Chad. The great river was no longer silent. It moved, and the hope was high in him that any day a boat would arrive with letters from Elizabeth, and food. Chad finished his paper work by midmorning, impatient to be outside. He wondered how Randall had possibly found enough to do to keep him in his office as much as he had. He wondered, too, what General Sherman would think of the thin envelope of reports which would go to St Louis signed, “Lieut. Chad Endicott, Acting Commander, Fort Butterfield.” There were reams of reports signed by Colonel Randall. Much of it, Chad knew, was about trivial matters which General Sherman could skip and probably would. He went outside, leaving the office door open, and walked through the sparkling May sunshine which filled the quadrangle. Isabella Randall was sitting in front of her quarters. Chad hesitated, thinking that he should; talk to her. There was something that had to be said, but he knew it was not wise to approach her. As far as he knew, there had beep no gossip among the men since Randall’s death. He had seen to it that no one had any grounds for talk. And there was something else, too. He could not forget the moment when she had been in his arms and he had kissed her. He felt a little guilty about it. He had been a fooL ft did not mean he loved Elizabeth any less, but she would not understand if she ever heard. “Chad,” Isabella called. He turned toward her, wishing he had kept on walking. When he reached her, she gave him her smile, murmuring, *1 think it’s all right, as long as we're out here in plain sight of everyone.” She leaned her head against the back of the rocking chair. “Or is it something else, Chad ? Are you afraid to talk to me, afraid of yourself?" He took off his forage cap and stood stiffly before ber, his face red with embarrassment. “I suppose I am," he said. She was thinner than she had been, the same as everyone else in the fort, but it did not detract from her beauty. She would go back to St. Louis and she would find a husband, and, God willing, she would be

far happier than she had been with Randall. “You have given me no chance to talk to you since the day of the funeral,” she said. “Sometimes I wish you weren’t quite so—well, circumspect.” “I have to be," he said. "Os course.” She smiled again. “I’ve had a lot of time to think, living alone as T have for the last few weeks. I can’t help wondering what our future would have been if you had never met Elizabeth.” She gave him a direct look, her face very grave. “But there is no sense in thinking about the might-have-beens. When I get back to St Louis, Til call on your Elizabeth and tell her she is a lucky girt. The second thing I'll do is to call on General Sherman and tell him about the fine job you’ve done here. You deserve a promotion, and it would give me a great deal of pleasure if I could help you get it" “That’s kind of you," he said. “Isabella, what I came over to say was that a boat should arrive any time. I hope you’ll be ready to go back on it” "Why, you sound as if you want to get rid of me, Chad.” She shrugged. ’Til be ready. I’ll be glad to leave, but 1 wonder about you. You wouldn’t be satisfied to go back to Jeffqrson Barracks, weuM you?" t . —— — “No. I belong here." he said. . He turned and walked rapidly away toward his quarters. An exclamation from one of the : guards brought Chad’s attention to a man running for the metal triangle used as an alarm. Chad ’ raced to one of the ladders and : climbed to the blockhouse. Peering through a loophole, he saw ' Zack riding in from the east, ’ urging his mount frantically. Chad went back down the lad1 dcr. The instant the men pushed the heavy gate open, Zack pounded into the stockade and hit the ground, running before his lath- ’ ered mount could stop. He jabbed 1 a finger vigorously in a down- ' river direction, shouting, “It's 1 happened, Lootinant. They’ve got '■ a boat hung up on a sand bar ' and all the Injuns in tarnation is ! tryin’ to board it” 1 “How far?” 1 “A mile or two by land. You’d • of heard the shootin’ if the wind was blowin’ this way. I heerd the I commotion and got up on the ! ridge to look. Cut Lip, I reckon. ■ He must have a couple hundred . bucks. Purty well gunned, from • the racket they’re makin’." Chad spun on his heel, barking, . "Mullvane, Anderson. Get the men i ready. Double issue of anununi- , tion.

Use Credit To Get Full Farm Returns Maintaining Good Repayment Record Farm families in Adams, Allen, Jay and Wells counties who are using credit obtained through the Farmers Home Administration are making efficient use of the funds and are maintaining a good repayment record, according to a report by the agency's county supervisor, Donald A. Norquest. Many farmers are using the loan funds to obtain higher grade livestock including dairy animals, to improve their pastures, to buy proper types and amounts of fertilizer, increase number of dairy cows, laying hens or brood sows for farmers already in business or to give beginners an adequate start in chosen enterprises. So far this fiscal year, or since June 30, 1956, farmers in Adams, Allen. Jay and Wells counties have repaid a total of 391,579.05 types of loans. The FHA provides loans to farm better, buy or improve farms, build or repair farm buildings, improve soil and water conservation practices, meet emergency needs, or take care of certain refinancing problems, Norquest said. FHA credit is supplied on the basis of supplementing credit from other sources, he explained. The loans are available only when other lenders are'not in position to supply the credit the farmers need to get the greatest possible returns from their land and family labor resources. The average time taken by farmers in the counties to repay their loans for farm operating purposes, and to reach the point where they can obtain the credit they need from conventional lenders, is approximately six years, Norquest said. Before a loan is closed, the agency and the applicant plan ahead to make sure that every loan will be repayable from planned income. In addition to credit, farmers with FHA loans receive necessary aid with farm and home management problems and in keeping records that help them to keep their farm business on a sound financial basis.

rm leaving ten men here to hold the fort That will give us more than forty. All right now, on the double.” Frantically the men prepared for battle—filling canteens, loading ammunition belts, readying their guns. Within twenty minutes of Zack’s arrival, the Fifteenth marched out of the fort. As the news of the attack on the steamboat spread through the ranks, there was a mounting murmur of anticipation. Now as the men surged forward, their eagerness was unconcealed. In a few minutes they heard firing ahead, then they topped the ridge and looked down upon the stranded steamboat. From the decks, small red needles of Same leaped out as those aboard kept up a steady fire against the Indians. From time to time a deck gun backed, throwing grape shot at the Indians who whirled up and down the bank, now splashing their ponies belly-deep in the water as they tried to close the distance, now veering off and racing up and down the water's edge, firing steadily. Chad swept the area quickly with his glass. Apparently the steamer had suffered heavy casualties, for the decks were dotted with grotesquely twisted figures. It was hard to determine the — number of Indians, for they were a swarming, rapidly moving mass. Before he could decide upon the strategy which the situation „ called for, Chad saw that a body of Indians had managed to drive their ponies to the steamer’s deck. The braves swung from their mounts and swarmed over the vessel’s lower deck, engaging in a hand-to-hand struggle with the defenders. Other Indians converged on the weakened spot at the boat’s side. There was no time to lose. Chad led his men down the slope at full charge, firing as they ran. The men who manned howitzers remained behind at a higher elevation to cover their comrades. The Indians had not seen the soldiers. Now, caught in a crossfire between the men aboard the steamer and Chad’s force, they scrambled off the boat, those who could regaining their mounts, the others wading ashore, holding their guns high over their heads. < For a time the Indians were disorganized, completely surprised by this attack from their rear. Then Zack, running at Chad’s side, yelled, "Look out, Lootlnant. They’re gonna hit us." “Silent River” reaches its exciting climax tomorrow.

When a man is dining with a woman in a public place, is it all right for him to suggest something on the menu?

IATOTOAY, APRIL M, MW

A. This is quite in order, and quite frequently done, especially if his companion seems undecided. Q. We have just moved into a new community. Would it be aS right if we were to give a buffet dinner for our new neighbors? A. This might be all right in a very informal community. Usually, however, it is more advisable to wait until your neighbors make such overtures of friendship. Q. Although I was invited to a bridal shower recently, I did not receive an invitation to the wedding. Don't you think this was rude? . A. Yes. Since an invitation to a shower is, in away, a request for a gift, you most certainly should have been invited to the wedding.
