: Watch for kiddies running from behind parked autos into the street and right in front of your vehicle. They’re probably thinking of retrieving a baseball or basketball, but that doesn't lessen a certain moral responsibility which we aU must assume. MO ■ O It will be to your advantage to read every advertisement in every edition of the Daily Democrat. Decatur merchants offer weekly bargains in almost every line of retail sales, Decatur is one of the best shopping communities in Indiana and it boasts that enviable position because local merchants are constantly striving to give each of you more for your money. If you have prev« > iously been a buyer by mail or a shopper in some other trading center, watch values in Decatur stores and compare. You’l soon discover that Decatur offers more in both value 'and quality and your friendly local merchant has a constant desire to give you exactly what you want. Trade in Decatur and watch your shopping dollars go farther. Police officers are rather strict in their checking of automobiles and examine every detail before giving the motorist an approved sticker. This is the way It Should be. It means greater highway safety for everyone and it also gives the auto owner a full report on the condition of his automof bile. Often a person will drive his vehicle' several days with the windshield wiper inoperative or a headlight burned out. The safety tests will "save lives and each of us should cooperate with the authorities to our fullest extent. ——o-—o—— ?. . «ai Juvenile delinquency is getting some top billing in Congressional ’ investigations these days. Decatur may have some juvenile problems, the same as when .we were young, but you could hardly call it delinquency. In a small community like ours, where Churches play an important roll in the lives of both young and old and where our schools have closer personal contact, there isn’t the desire or opportunity for organized crime among the young people. Most types of delinquency can be detected and curbed before it becomes a serious problem, for which we should all be grateful.

Former President Harry Truman today Observes his seventythird birthday. He was bom May 8, 1884 in In our thinking, Mr. Truman has been a typical American. His family always comes first. Next to his family comes his country, of which he should be proud because he helped make it great. Mr. Truman’s entire life exemplifies America. Starting In very ordinary circumstances, he became President of the United States and was elected to a second term, when even members of his own party felt all through the campaign that he would not win. During the last several years, Mr. Truman, in retirement has travelled and written several magazine articles and ( books pertaining to the period when he served as President. He will have a place in history and we would venture to say a great place. We add our expression of Happy Birthday to this great ’ American Citizen and may his remaining days be many and full of more gracious living and contentment. * 0 0 Myron "Mike’’ Lehman, dean j of all Adams county high school athletic coaches for the last six years head coach at Pleasant i Mills high school has retired from ( all coaching assignments effective this year. Mr. Lehmanwill J continue, however, as a teacher < in that school system. “Mike”, has been connected with the ’ coaching staff of some Adams county school for sixteen years. He has seen the athletic plant at Pleasant Mills become one of the finest in the county with six acres of athletic field including a baseball diamond and track. Coach Lehman never was satisfied with just an average team, whether it was basketball, track or baseball and was constantly working to make all of his'teams champions. He has built an enviable record and will be‘sorely missed In county coaching circles where he always has been known as a grgat fighter but always fighting for his boys. His retirement as an active coach is felt with sorrow among the followers of Pleasant Mills high school athletics, but these followers are glad to know that he will continue to teach his “fair play” practices in that school as a regular school instructor. We join his many followers in wishing continued success in the teaching field to “a great competitor.”

SYNOPSIS I Doctor Grady Barton, on vacation from a large hospital in Chicago, stops for gas at the small town of Green Holly. Wisconsin, and runs Into an emergency. Frank Seddens. long-time resident of the town, is stricken with a high blood pressure attack at the station and Grady comes, to his aid. Seddens is impressed with the young doctor’s ability and asks him to consider a practice in the town, which is without a doctor. It la a tempting offer—Grady is tired of the hospital routine and wants a general practice. Besides, his wife. Gisela. Is divorcing him and be wants to "get away and start a new life. Grady returns to Chicago and his Job as admissions physician. He is unhappy with the duty because of the amount ot paper work involved. After a tew days. Grady receives from Beddens an invitation to be interviewed by the town committeemen. At the meeting at the Seddens home, a Srejudlced. aggressive man called lopp says that the doctor ot their choice should be a settled man with a family. Grady replies hastily: "I am married.” GRADY had not told the whole truth. Was he crazy? He sat back in his chair, overwhelmed at his reckless tolly, and now the hand which held a cigarette, which struck a match, trembled visibly. He was still numb with the shock of his experience when the contract was brought out for his consideration and his “John Henry,” as Mo Chronister called his signature. , , “Are you attorney for the committee?” Grady asked him, looking up from the paper. “I’m attorney for anyone who will hire me," said Mo, laughing. "Judge Cowan there can sit back and choose his clients, but.. .“ Grady glanced across at the •distinguished looking JuIWCI "Would you care to take me on he asked. ' J Judge Cowan reached for the contract and read it aloud to Grady. "If you want to come here to practice,” he said in a kindly fashion, “I think it is safe to sign this." There was in the contract no mention ot a wife. And th« contract was put into Judge Cowan's pocket after he had suggested that Grady might waft to sien ft until he had looked at his nouse and his clinic—an advisable procedure. Grady thanked him. Then the meeting ‘broke op in a flurry of mutual congratulations and Judge Cowan offered to take Grady for a took at the town. Something like a tour was quickly arranged: Grady got into the Judge s sedate sedan, with, Frank Seddens and the Reverend Mr. Cook tn fte back seit, and they started out. He was shown the whole setup. Holly Neighbors first—its factory built of stone. Its -homes and its stoles, its churches, tne dance hall and pier.

| murmured Cflraay, iHbugn he was not so sure that he had entirely liked Mo. Now he guessed that his parents’ wealth had endowed the young man with his brash, assertive manner. They were coming back to Green Holly, planning to go to the doctor’s house and the clinic building. These were shown to Grady with a running comment from his three companions; his future nome was one of the older limestone houses; it had six rooms and a bath; it was somewhat old-fashioned, but comfortable and adequate. The clinic building had originally been built in the house's back yard to serve as a cottage grocery store. It was of frame faced with asphalt shingles and would do fine as an office. Grady wondered about finding a nurse or some sort of office help. ; “Would you gentlemen,” he asked on impulse, "misunderstand me if I asked to be allowed to look around now on my own?” They did not misunderstand, and Grady turned back and went into the clinic where two carpenters sawed and pounded. Mentally, he set his desk into place —chairs —and the examination table. , He crossed the yard to the house. It was an old house, built in the time of mansard roofs. The limestone wails were silvery, the, slate root fed taken on a bluish tone. Tito framer of the tall windows were painted a dark blue. There was a small, screened j porch at the kit -hen door, a larger open poren at. the front. Inside, the rooms were large and high-cettingfd. The floors were of w’.de-piankcd maple, the wide window Mils and doors were of walnut, it now, there was. as the committee had promised, some furniture. Assorted. A stove and a refrigerator, table and chairs and dishes were in the kitchen. The dining <-ccm was empty ex-: cept for » rug and a huge fern on a pedestal sei into the bay window. The wide central hall contained a tufted black leather couch which, Grady acknowledged with , a smite possessed a ti*uly, professional look. In the living room, again with a bay window and lace curtains, there was a suite —a ccuch and matching arm Chair in dark red cut velour. There was a gas grate, a radio—tend a iftarble topped table., Lamps. Upstairs were three bedrooms and the bath. One bedroom was. completely furnished. The win-, dows up there were of the casemerit type, the et ifing sloping toward the walls. The smaller bedroom was empty. The other large one contained bunk beds, and two chests Qi draw era. In his Chicago apartment. Grady had some tlnnrs which he’d bring here. A TV set.' a desk, a leather i arm chair. He owned rt.

t" **.'"t *♦ Modern Etiquette BY ROBBRTA LIB A— Q. What should a person do when with others and they are discussing some subject about which A. Listen attentively. One may also ask an occasional question to show interest. Above all, do not try to convince the others that you are well imformed, nor try to change the subject. , . Q. Should a maid be addressed “Jane” as or “Miss Smith”? A. She should be addessed as “Jane." Q. If a werdding must be postponed, must the same people be invited again? A. Usually, yes. However, if something serious has caused the postponement, such as a death in the family or serve financial reverses, and the wedding is to be greatly simplified, then the list of guests would have to be cut down. Q. How should the butter knife be placed on the individual but- . ter plates, horizontally across the top or vertically at the right side? A. There is not set rue about this, but the consensus is that it looks better placed in the same direction as the other silver. Q. What is the correct saluta- , tion of a business letter addressed to both a man and woman? < A. “Dear Sir and Madam.” Q. My fiance has suggested that I ask his sister to serve as my maid-of-honor at our wedding. Am I required to do this? A. Certainly not. You choose YOUR' sister or, if you have none, your very best friend. If your fiance’s sister happens to be your best friend, all well and good. Otherwise, you could ask her to serve as a bridesmaid. Q. Would it be proper for a young unmarried woman, who has been the secretary of a businessman for quite a long time, to visit him when he is ill in a hospital? A. Quite proper. Q.

What ever had made him give the wrong idea about his marriage! He'd talk to Seddens at dinner tonight, or to Judge Cowan when he signed the contract Maybe they’d understnno how Kopp got under a man's fingernails. He went qut of the checked on the frame garage at the side of it, then walked on dqwn the street, keenly noticing every detail. The houses, their lawns —the people he passed. The beach and the lake. All of these parallel streets ended at the take. He went west again along a narrow, tree-shaded side street, the sidewalk of herringbone-set bricks, mossy underfoot, and turned once more down toward the lake. On this street were large homes, wide lawns, tall trees; there was a general sense of ease and gracious living. Grady’s brisk step slowed, faltered; then he continued at' snail’s pace. The house he saw was big, square—white-painted frame —green shutters—a delicately columned porch entirely around it—a white picket fence ericloaed a wide smooth lawn, ddtted with tall trees and shrubbery. On the lawn there was a dog—and a girl. .A someWhat-Airedale dog, and trie girl. ... So familiar had she become to him in the past srt weeks Os thinking about her that Grady hardly restrained an imptflse to call out to her. He did witch her, for as long as decency would let him dawdle, for as many backward glances as propriety would permit him, and a few after that. ( Having reached the end of the street, he considered walking back along the other side. She probably wouldn’t notice. She hadn't noticed him before. He went clear to the lake’s edge, propped a foot upon an upturned boat and thought about that pretty girl, yoday she was wearing a red sweater and a dark bite skirt, with sturdy moccasin shoes. Her short hair was a brown curly mop, and her eyes were as blue as the autumn sky. Exactly that blue. With just a softening tint of gray. One thing was assured! She lived here. She lived tn this town! In that fine home—not so ’much a rich man’s home a» one that bespoke background and taste and respectability. The Scddenses would know the people in that house end so Grady could hope to meet them, and—and ... And nothing! Grady’s teeth ground together. What difference could any girl—what difference could that girl particularly— make to him? Hr was a married man! (T'. Be Continued) ‘libber. Dodd. Mead i. Co.
