plants, is the author of an interesting book entitled "The Size and Effect of Taxes.” The pamphlet approaches the tender subject of taxation, in much thfe same manner that it operates its vast business and reaches the core of the problem, without pulling any punches. ' ■ _—o—O The First Baptist Church congregation has purchased the Dan H. Tyndall property, corner of Adams and Fourth streets, which is adjacent to the present parsonage. Plans are not definite at this time, but it is understood that for the present, the newly acquired Tyndall residence will be used as a parsonage and the present parsonage, south of the Church will be utilized as Sunday School rooms. In the future, it is contemplated that a new Church will be built on the corner. This also would leave space for off street parking, which most local Churches are planning for. The Baptist congregation is one of the older local congregations and their action has brought much favorable comment among citizens, both members and nonmembers of the Church. Eventually it will add another fine House of Worship to Decatur’s growing Church accommodations. We congratulate the Baptists on their progressiveness and farsightedness, and also their faith in Decatur.

CHAPTER 22 ON THE FOURTH day after the court hearing, Grady Barton took his medical contract with the towns of tho. Hollies and went to see Judge Cowan. Could Oren Kopp, he asked, force him to leave? The judge made a show of reading the doctor's contract, which of course he well knew. "Has he bothered you ?’’ he asked. "Since that morning?" "No. People keep quoting his threats to me." "1 see." The judge folded the paper and laid it on the desk. "Legally, your position is firm, Grady. The court said you had committed no fault" He sat looking at Grady, but not smiling. "What I’d like to persuade myself," said Grady, “is that the dismissal of the charge indicates that no one really believes I would hurt a child.” Cowan said nothing. "It doesn’t mean that you think?” “I don’t know, Grady. The facts are there—you were charged, and the charges were dismissed. But meanings—they change with the weather, with a person’s disposition. Kopp is definitely being vindictive. He may talk himself out Or he may get others to believe him. People are odd, you know. If enough people listen to Kopp, things could be difficult here for you. Not in a legal sense, ! but really—actually." “Yes," Grady admitted, "I see what you mean. It’s a funny thing, sir—when I took routine care at Judy Nolan, I was praised far beyond my merit Then, when I took just as routine care of Kopp’s grandchild, I find myself threatened with destruction.” Cowan’s blue eyes twinkled. “Grady, you’re a thoughtful young man. You must have given some consideration as to why rural communities — places like the Hollies—don't attract, and keep, young doctors." “Well ..." “The work Isn’t too hard. And I think you’ve found out once established to a modest extent, that a man can make a living.” “Yes, sir." "Granted," said Judge Cowan, seeming to go off at a tangent "that young men don’t always choose the medical profession for high ethical reasons of noble selfsacrifice and so on—it must be in the mind of moat doctors that they should be allowed to practice the art of healing unhandicapped by the effects of personal prejudice and vindictiveness.” Grady leaned forward in his chair. > “That’« just it air," he said eagerly. "Small towns give a clear field to personalities, Grady. la the

city you can escape them or cover over such bruising experiences as occur. But in a place like the Hollies—what one man says and does and thinks Is loudly evident" “You’re saying that a shortage occurs because most doctors won’t be bothered to fight for a right to practice." "Some in small town practice,” said his friend, "are too incompetent to make a good thing of practice in the city. Some can bring themselves to compromise with the Kopps. "And a few of them—a very few — are ready to fight the Koppa Some even think it's worth doing." Judge Cowan lifted an eyebrow at his visitor. Grady stood up. "I don’t know if the sight’s worth doing, sir,” he said firmly, “but I’m ready to give it a try." Judge Cowan nodded. "That’s what I thought," he said quietly, "when I agreed to be on the committee asMng you to come here and practice. I thought you were that kind of man.” • • • On that high note of resolve, it was rather deflating to have it seem for a time that the fight was not going to be a very tough one. Though Grady realized that his own busy-ness might have blunted his awareness of adverse currents. He was busy and the town certainly needed a doctor during the epidemic of measles then running among the children of the town, and the wave of flu sweeping through the ranks of all ages. For two weeks Grady. had so many house calls to make that he could scarcely keep office hours. He warned his fellow Lions that he might not be able to serve on the committee for their stuntnight dinner. He decided to wait, however, until a day or so before the event before releasing June Cowan from her date with him for that affair. He’d had only glimpses of her during these two weeks, and as sure as he’d tell her he couldn’t make the dinner, Mo Chronister would take over her entertainment That Grady hoped to prevent The stunt and dinner were planned for the last Friday ip January, their regular meeting night, and on Wednesday of that week, Grady could say he thought he might make It On Thursday be talked to June and confirmed thdr date. They made a few plahs. The group would go first to the Junction filling station where a police car would assist the Lions in choosing their guests for the evening entertainment. The committee consisted of Grady, Norvell Lee and Mo Chronister. -
“Virginia is going with Mo, I think," June broke in. “Oh?" What was Henry Preston saying to that? He and Virginia ... “She often helps Mo out,” June went on to explain. “It isn't necessary that he drag a date." “No, but — well, I think this sort of arrangement will work out, Grady. Considering everything ..." Grady’s free hand clenched upon his desk blotter. “Considering that Dr. Barton was a married man,"> was what June had left* unsaid. Virginia, "as good as engaged” to Henry Preston, would make a chaperone-type second girl in their foursome. And those matters had to be thought of, for everyone’s sake. Grady concluded the arrangements, put the phone down and sat frowning at it. As soon as he possibly could, he mutt set thin-s straight here in the Hollies about his status as a divorced man. He only hoped he could do it before Kopp, or some character like him, began ugly questionings about the doctor's wife. The simplest way to handle the matter would be to go to the committee, state that he'd not told the whole story—in his anxiety to come to the Hollies as their doctor — admit that he shouldn't have done this, say that he was sorry, and . . . Kopp would ask what other lies he had told. Grady groaned aloud. But he still meant to “do something,” and as early as the next week. Meanwhile the Friday night stunt had to be gone through, and with as much fun as possible. For everyone. He did the things required of him as chairman of the "stunt” committee. He briefed the young people who would be on the welcoming committee with him, and checked with the chairman of the dinner committee to be sure their plans meshed. Friday turned out to be a cold evening, but clear. A huge moon hung in the eastern sky, and the people waiting at the junction were in good spirits. It was only ten minutes after six when the .police radio announced that they ibere bringing in a car. "Honeymooners, I’ll bet," commented the officer. Everyone was delighted! The welcoming committee but* toiled into their wraps and went out upon the lighted apron of the junction station. Honeymooners, they say. But Grady isn’t so sure . . .

e —— I Modern Etiquette | BY ROBBRTA LIB Q. Is it proper for a divorcee to insert the announcement of her second engagement in the newspapers? A. She may do this, if she second engagement is announced wishes — although, usually, the merely by letting relatives and friends know shortly before the wedding. Q. How should a daughter-in-law refer to her husband's mother when introducing her to someone else? A. As “My mother-in-law,” “My husband’s mother,” or to very good friends, as, “Bob’s mother." Q. Is it required that a woman wear a hat when she goes to a restaurant during the day? A. Most authorities seem to agree that a woman looks "more dressed” if she does wear a hat. Q. Is it possible to correct someone’s grammar without being impolite? A. No one likes to be corrected in group conservation, and efforts at improvement of grammar and diction had better be reserved for members of one’s own family or very close friends who may consider them as favors, and not insults. Q. When is the proper moment for a dinner guest to open his napkin and place it on his lap? • A. Only when the hostess takes up her napkin. And be sure not to unfold the napkin completely.
