The Court- House lawn has three new evergreen trees. The trees were taken from the hospital lawn during the course of new construction this last week and members of the board of Commissioners and the late John Kintz placed the trees in their new home. They fit well into the wooded pattern of our Court House lawn. o o ■ Statistics reveal that today one ’ out of every three cancer patients is being saved. Two, however, die. This rate of life saving is constantly growing larger, because of the dollars you contribute toward education and research through the Cancer society. Have you contributed this year? You can still mail a check to Don Bieberich, treasurer of the county society. The very dollar you contribute might save your own life. o o Lots of people will be inclined to sit back this week and fee! ' that since they attended Church on Easter Sunday, they can coast now for a month or so and not 1 attend Church regularly. Every Decatur Church was filled almost to capacity last Sunday. You will feel much better and be a better citizen if you continue to attend Church regularly. When a stranger passes a local Church or drops in for a visit, he gets a better impression of the entire city, if he sees a, well filled Churqh auditorium. Plan now to support your Church with regular attendance. It will help you and ft will help all Decatur. 1.0 I ■ Experts in the field of "gues- ■ sing what's going to happen” be- , lieve that new home construction and also sale of other homes will stabilize the real estate and home construction industry to a ■ point where the balance of 1957 : might be a near record breaker. . A. firm view of the facts, however, which on new homes in- • eludes the tremendous rise in .• freight rates for building material and on old homes includes the borrowing regulations and the red tape a person must unwind to get a loan, reveals the fact that considerable must be done yet to actually unloosen the tightness of the construction and real estate markets, which of course go hand in hand.

Major league baseball, in spite of pretty general rate, is getting off to a good start, with attendance starting out after a new record. In another week, when double-headers become an attraction, attendance should take still another spurt. Players will settle down for the long grind and before you know it the World Series will be the talk of every fan. ■'.<> Right now is the time for careful shoppers to watch the Daily Democrat advertisements. There will be many post-Easter bargains offered to shoppers in the Decatur trading area by many merchants. The Ing advantage to you of shopping in Decatur is that Decatur merchants do not import a lot of "bargain junk” for their sales. Their offerings are taken off their shelves and are the finest in their lines at the lowest possible prices. Don't be lured or high-pressured into buying these "tremendous bargains” often offered by notorious cut-rate stores. These items usually are brought into a store as “bait.” You will always get more for your shopping dollar if you trade in Decatur, where through experience you know that your shopping dollars go farther. o o An interesting service feature for all persons interested in financing a new or old home appears in today’s Daily Democrat. First of two articles, one is published today and one will appear .a week from today. Today’s feature deals with how a person can ■ finance a new home. The article was prepared by Arthur D. Suttles, Decatur real estate and insurance man and it tells the readers the exact steps to take to get a loan with which to build or buy. The second article of the series will deal with how to buy the home after your loan is arranged. Mr. Suttles has prepared the articles as a service to all persons of the Decatur area and they contain valuable information. You are urged to clip these articles and save them for future reference. While they were written and paid for by Mr. Suttles, they state the facts of procedure and are filled with valuable information that every prospective home buyer and home builder will want to have on hand.

What form should a newlywed couple use when extending invitations to a reception, after they have returned from their honeymoon? > A. They may either mail the engraved kind of invitation, or if the affair is to be an informal one, they may telephone their invitations. Q. Is it considered proper to use the spoon to test the temperature of the coffee at the table? A. Yes, this is all right. But after that one little "taste-test,” the spoon should be placed in the saucer and left there. Q. Is it proper for a young woman to sign a business letter as Miss Margaret Benten? A. Yes; but the “Miss” should be enclosed in parentheses. Q. I was widowed several months ago, and a friend has told me I am supposed either to discard my wedding ring or wear it on my right hand.

CHAPTER 3S AT CHAD'S command his men dropped into a prone position. Turning, Chad waved his arm at the gunnega who had stayed behind. In a moment shot was flying overhead, plopping down into the writhing mass of Sioux. The decks of the Red Nymph had been cleared of Indiana Fire poured from rifles and deck guns. AU of Cut Lipls braves were mounted, and Chad thought they were going to break and run. Their position on the bank was untenable, caught in the open between the two bodies of whites. And they did run, but not as Chad had expected. The Indians drove in a wild rush directly at the soldiers, fifty or more abreast and close together. It was an avalanche of men and horses, and the steady fire of the soldiers did not stop them. Painted braves spilled off their ponies in a swirl of bright feathers, but they closed ranks and came on, their war cries harsh with the threat of death. For a terrible moment Chad wondered if his men would break. His gunners behind him could not Are. now. The Indians were too close. There would be no help from the men on the boat, either. Saunders cried out as an arrow caught him in the thigh. Tolliver swore when a bullet tagged him in the shoulder. The forty-odd men lacked the firing power to break a charge like this. It was load and Are, load and fire; and Chad, thumbing shells into the cylinder of his revolver, felt the warm glow of admiration for his men. His mep! Heroes, every son of them, whether they lived or died this day. A big Indian was in front, war bonnet twisted by the wind. Zack swore an oath. "It’s Cut Lip! Cut him down." Then they were there, like a great ocean wave breaking against a shore. Chad emptied his gun, knocking two braves off their ponies. Cut Lip jabbed at him with his spear, and missed. No time to reload. There was a chaos of movement and sound alb around him: struggling men and shouts and grunts and the shrill cries of mortally wounded men. plunging horses and spears seeking white-skinned bodies. Chad was knocked down by a riderless horse. He got to his knees as Cut Lip rode at him again, painted face distorted with the fury of battle. Chad threw himself sjdeways. Mullvane, coming in frofn somewhere, pulled Cut Lip off his horse. Another brave swung low on ©1956. Beuregy A Curl. lac., r

his pony and drove his knife into Mullvane’s back. Chad, gripping his empty gun, regained his feet as Cut Lip rolled over. He drove the barrel downward across the warrior’s head and Cut Lip, coming up off the ground, fell back and lay motionless. The wild yelling changed in tone. The charge rolled on, but it wasn't a charge now. The Indians were fleeing, quartering off to the north, utterly disorganized, and wanting only to get away. Chad, wiping a hand across his sweaty face, saw that a blue-clad figure was leading a dozen men from the boat toward them. Zack, blood dripping from a slash down his cheek, pointed tq Cut Lip. "That’s what done it, Lootinant They didn't have no belly for it after he went down.” Chad knelt beside Mullvane. The big Irishman was dying, and he knew it He was praying. Then he recognized Chad and his white lips tried to grin. He whispered, “We done ’em in, Lieutenant, we done 'em in.” He reached up and Chad took his hand. “Sorry 'bout one thing. I’ll never . . . get my shoulder bars.” Tears rolled down Chad’s checks. After all the bitterness tliat had been between them, Mullvane had died helping him. He was a soldier, a good one. There was no fear in Mullvane. His hand slipped out of Chad’s and he was gone. ChadTose. Young Saunders was biting his lips to hold back his groans. Tolliver was dead. Anderson came toward Chad wearily. "Half the men are dead or wounded, sir.” “We'll get the wounded men to the boat” Chad heard a man yell, ••Chad," and when he swung around he saw that the men from the boat were close and that the blue-clad figure he had seen leading them was Otto Grunwald. Chad straightened to attention and saluted. "Lieutenant Endicott reporting, sir, acting commander of Fort Butterfield.” "Oh, for God’s sake, Chad!” Otto exploded. “At ease.” He held out his hand. “I never saw a finer sight tn my life than when you brought your boys down that hill. We thought you were wiped out. Newspapers have been full of it.” “No, sir,” Chad said. “We stuck through the winter. The fort’s all right.” "And lucky for us you did.” Otto slapped him on the back. “We were Just about cooked when you took a hand.” He stopped and stared at Chad. “Did you say you were acting commander of Fort Butterfield?” v "Yes, sir. Colonel Randall died last March.” übluher* M the new novel. Distribute

Old Ammunition CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. — (IB — Ammunition left by Conferate troops nearly 100 years ago was found near here and Army ordnance officials destroyed the ammunition as “dangerous.” Ten cannon balls an dtwo shells were found on Missionary Ridge, site of an 1863 battle. Relic hunters dug up the ammunition, using a device similar to an Army mine detector. N. Y Church-going ALBANY, N. Y. — (TO — A survey by the National Council of Churches showed that 66.6 per cent of all New York state residents attend church regularly. The U. S. average is 61.1 per cent The survey was based on reports from 114 religious bodies. Crochet Chomp NASHVILLE, Tenn. — W — For five consecutive years, Ernest Moon, 67, has won a prize at the state fair here —for crocheting. Moon, of near Murfreesboro. Tenn., said he’s been crocheting for 41 years, starting the second year he was married.

Otto took • kjpg breath. •'Well, I knew he’d never lead a charge like that.” He turned to the men behind him. “Help out with the wounded. Get them on the boat We have a doctor." He swung back to Chad. "And someone else you'll want to see." "Chad. Chad." It was Elizabeth’s voice, coming from a great distance. She was running across the grass, her wet skirt clinging to her, and it seemed to Chad he must be dreaming, that this could not actually be happening. Otto said, "She would never believe you were dead. See that she gets back to the boat. I’ll take charge here.” Chad ran toward her. She came to him, crying his name over and over, her arms clutching him with the intensity of a woman who has found someone she loves whom she had thought lost. He kissed her, and still she clung to him as if she could not have enough of his Ups. They walked back across the grass, his arm around her. When they reached the bank, he picked her up and carried her through the shallow .water to the boat. Men reached down and lifted her to the deck and he clambered up after her. The captain offered his hand. “You and your men wer*m welcome sight, Lieutenant, a welcome sight.” Chad stiffened. There, in front of him on the deck, was Alvin Stiner, a knife in his stomach. Not far from him r lay a man in buckskin, shot in the chest. "That was the strangest thing,” the captain said. ”1 just happened to see it. Wasn’t a minute after you showed up, and the Injuns were pulling out, that Stiner turned around and that breed jumped him. He threw the knife and Stiner plugged him. Here we were, yelling our heads off, knowing it was all over, and them two cut loose at each other.” Elizabeth had walked away. Chad went to her. He said,. "You’d better go to your cabin. There’s a lot to be done.” "I know," she said, “but I’m needed, too, and I’m going to help.” He looked at her and he knew he had no cause to worry about whether she would go with him from post to post, whether she would want more than he could give her. There would be a lot to , be dond for a long time, but it was all right. It was what he wanted, and with Elizabeth beside him —well, what more could a man ask for? "Yes,” he said. "A lot to be done.” THE END I 1 by King Feature* Syndicate.

Big Share Os U.S. Budget Is Uncuttable Over sl7 Billion Os Record Budget Fixed Definitely By Low WASHINGTON (UP>—The federal budget for next year would be $17,168,000,000 even if Congress decided to call the whole thing off and turned all functions of government back* to the states. That is the inescapable portion of President Elsenhower’s record peacetime budget of 871,800.000,000 for fiscal 1958. Cut as it may, Congress couldn't possibly get below that figure because such expenditures are fixed by law. The biggest item in the uncuttable budget is $7,360,000,000 for interest on the huge national debt of nearly 275 billion dollars. A dictatorship like the Soviet Union can declare a moratorium on public debt payments. But a similar move by the United States would signal the collapse of the free enterprise system. The second largest budget item fixed by law is 84.105,000,000 for pensions, compensation or other benefits for 3,606,000 veterans or their dependent? or survivors — one out of every 47 Americans. There is no end in sight for this group of fixed expenditures. Other major items that can’t be cut without changing basic laws include $2,201,000,000 for farm price supports. 81,679,000,000 for public assistance grants, one billion dollars for the soil bank program, nearly 500 million dollars

for other farm programs, and 310 million dollars for unempoyment compensation grants to the states. Congress could cut these items only by revising or repealing laws calling for the various expenditures. This is hardly likely. Congress can reduce or eliminate any other item in the record budget. But. with the world situation in its present precarious state’, it still would come up with a whopping figure. Os the approximately 54 billion dollars left for congressional paring, by far the biggest share—-
