Numbered among these many smokers will be a large percentage of doctors. o* —o-— Health authorities believe that spraying of streets and alleys is a great disease preventative and also a means of controlling pesky flies and mosquitoes.

Leo Ulman has retired from his post as one of the original motor winders at the Decatur plant of General Electric. Mr. Ulman has devoted a large part of his adult life to making a useful electric item and plans a well deserved vacation. He has been a good citizen and conscientious workman. He has seen many forms of modernization and progresss at the local plant, but he always has been able to fit himself into the march of progress. We salute this typical Decatur citizen. —0 0 Harley Reef, Jefferson township. has been elected president of the Adams county board of commissioners and those who know him are confident he will do a good job. He has succeeded the late John Kintz as president. Mr. Reef knows well the affairs of the county and has done a splendid job as a member. He is serving a second term and his experience should guide him through any rough spots he might encounter. - o M> Officers of the Decatur Memorial Foundation, Including Ward Calland, chairman, have been reelected to that board for another year. The Foundation is the advisory arm for the recreation board in its operation of the Youth •nd Community Center. The present officers have worked hard in the various phases of the Center’s operation, largely in keeping a good program going and ascertaining the needs of the building and devising means of improvements. Foundation is so organized that it also can undertake other civic promotions. o —o Selection by the City Council of John G. (Jack) Heller as a member of the Decatur school board gives to that board a representative Os younger school patrons of Decatur and also a member vitally interested jn the proposed South elementary school. Mr. Heller is a graduate of Decatur high school and always has been interested in school affairs. He is a Democrat and will succeed George Helm, who was not a candidate ofr reelection. The new member joins Dr. James Burk and Everett Hutker to make up a strong board, in which we believe all citizens will justly have great confidence.

CHAPTER 27 GRADY BARTON sat stunned at June's frank advice that he send for his wife. He was cold, as he had not been out upon the wintry hillside nor beside the. icy lake. Cold to his heart’s core, cold to the marrow of pls bones. He clasped his hands hard together between his knees and remembered the companionship which he had known with this girl on their walk that afternoon. A companionship so close as not to need talk. He had thought June shared it. And she had! With a gesture of decision, he clapped his hand against his knees, got to his feet and came across to ait beside June on the curved couch. Turning toward her, he took her hand between his two big ones, and with his eyes upon her sweet face, he told her of the lie. “1 do not have a wife, June. I am not married. Oh, I was when I first came to the Hollies—but—my wife—” He said the word with difficulty, sat silent for a second, then went on, his face pale. “My wife was in Reno then, getting a divorce. She did get one—she was within days of getting it when 1 came here to be interviewed. And, well, 1 wanted to come here so much that when Kopp said they must have a settled man, a married man, I just said that I was married, without any sort of qualification. And, so —well—it amounted to a lie. "I know it was a crazy thing to do! I’ve regretted it ever since! But there it was. I didn’t tell the truth—and so—l lied.”, As he talked, June’s eyes had clung to his face, "Oh, no!" she moaned now. He swallowed with difficulty. “There’s more,” he told her. "1— I love you, June.” Slowly, she drew her hand from his and bent her head away from his gaze. When he would have touched her, she drew away. “Wait, Grady,” she urged. “I have to think.” "I’m sorry I told that lie, June.’’ She searched his face. “Docs it mean that telling it makes—everything worse for you 7" "I'm afraid it docs.” “Up to now, they haven’t had much to go on. Father has said they haven’t Kopp, I mean, and Mo. He's jealous of you and resents you, but he hasn't had anything, really, to work on. But now., . .” “Yes, when tfic lie is known. But I had to tell you, June!" "I-know. But still they’ll use it as proof—what would Father call it ?—corroborating evidence that you can be dishonest. Oh, it's the worst thing that's happened, Grady,'”

I Congratulations are due the boys I who have served mass faithfully I tor eight years: Anthony Gijlig, I Thomas Ehler, Dave Voglewede, I Michael Murphy, Patrick Teeple, I and Dave Heimann made every effort to keep appointments. —D.C.H.S— One can let off steam and give i a sigh on relief as final tests are 1 over for the current school year. Tomorrow those cards will be distributed and once again what “tales” they will tell. Some will shed tears and others can over another year of achievement. Seniors will receive their last high school reports. —D.C.H.S— Tomorrow also will be the last time that the seniors will participate in the mass and general first Friday communion. Let us hope that this practice, instilled in them during their school days, will be one they will keep for their lives. As guests of the Rosary society, the seniors will have breakfast at the Fairway. The seniors wish to take this opportunity to thank the members of the Rosary society for this breakfast. —D.C.H.S— Many improvements are being made in the gym and by the time school reopens in September many surprises will be in store for all. The increased enrollment necessitates putting in shower rooms, lockers, etc. —D.C.H.S— Throughout the school more and more improvements will have to be made to accommodate the increased enrollments of the future. Twenty-two seniors leave this year — 92 first graders enter next fall. Where Is the room for them? Someone must solve the problem. Quick action is necessary. —D.C.H.S— Our dream of a separate high school building must materalize very, very soon. —D.C.H.S— In the midst of the joy and happiness incident to graduation there is a bit of sadness due to the news that Sister Rosemary, our beloved principal, is to leave DCHS. where she has been principal tor the past six years. There is an old saying that goes, “the way to have a friend is to be one.” This applies to-Sister Rosemary; who has been a friend to all the students. She gave generously of her busy life to be a most kind and patient
She looked at him pleadingly, her eyes filled with tears. “I know,” he agreed. “I’ve gone around feeling like that old chap with the albatross.” Compassionately, she touched his hand. “Even your friends, even those who have been sorry for you and have resented Kopp’s vindictive action against you, some of them, Grady, will stop now and wonder a little. About your honesty." “But I’m not dishonest, June!” , he protested. “I told a lie—but I ain not dishonest!” Neither he nor June recognized any absurdity in his claim. “No," she said slowly, “you’re not, Grady, In fact you lean over backward to be honest. I remember how Father exploded that time you had Mo arrested for running into your car. He said, ‘Does the guy fcave to be so darned honest and legal?’ ” She smiled wanly at him, and he caught her hands again, his tone roughening. “June," he cried, “tell me! Do you love me ? Could you ?” She sat very still, not taking her hands away, but they became lifeless things in his grasp, and gently he released them. Then he looked so lost that impulsively she leaned her shoulder against his. "Oh, Grady',’’ she cried. “I have to have a little time ... I like you. I’ve always liked you! But love— You see, I’ve never thought of you as anything but a man with a wife. I've never let myself think of you as free.” He sighed. “I love you, June,” he said gravely. “This afternoon, when I watched you come across the snow toward me, I felt haps I can't put it into words, the way I felt about you. The way I feel now. I suppose it's the way I shall always feel, even if you decide ... * » “Os course, you don’t know if •you love me, or could. 1 don't know if 1 could expect you to love me, because I’m not sure that 1 know why a woman ever would love a man.” He sat for a long minute, his eyes upon the fire. Then his face tightened, and he spoke firmly, his deep voice vibrating. “But I know why I would love a woman!” hc-said. “It would be because I would want to give that woman a feeling of security and faith in life. Because 1 would want to do everything I could to fulfill that woman's hopes and passions. And more—l would want to perpetuate those things” to perpetuate tiiat kind of world for the children my beloved would give me. “That is the way I feel about you, June. I "want to do those

The vaccum that will be left by her leaving us will be felt all the students and the memories she leaves us will long be remembered.

things for yon, and so—l know that I love you." She sat trembling against his arm, her emotions tumbling like the whir'ing snow which the wind blew against the windows. She was at once thrilled by what he had said to her and sorry for the man who had said it. She liked Grady, she had always liked him, and now she was swept upward in a surge of joy to know that he was free. She turned a laughing face upward to him. “I’ve always been horribly jealous of your wife,” she confessed. "I’ve criticized her bitterly for leaving you alone!” He nodded. He saw that June was still not ready to accept his love. After a bit, she lifted her eyes shyly. "Was she —’’ she began diffidently, then broke off to summon courage. "What was she like, Grady? What was her name? And—was she —pretty?" He held her hand and smoothed the back of it with his fingertips. His face was grave, his eyes dark. "Her name was Gisela,” he said in the quiet way one would describe an acquaintance. "I met her when I was a prisoner in Germany, and hurt. She was a purse in the hospital. And—yes, she was beautiful. No! She was liandso me, You’re beautiful. Pretty.” Her eyes flew open. “Is that better?” His smile answered her. "That's best!" he said firmly. "Oh—Grady," she cried in a tone of helpless protest. "I'm sorry," he agreed. "I wish—" For a moment he was silent. "I wish I had never fcnowit Gisela!” She leaned against his arm. “Do you want to tell me about her ?” - - o - - “1 have to tell you!” he cried. "For the whole thing was not right, June!" • ' ' “ "Not ever, Grady?” "bfow I believe it wasn’t—ever. It didn’t work. Maybe it efiuldn't have worked. I don't know. 1 thought 1 was trying, but. anyway—"lt seemed that we hadn’t anything in, common. We didn't like or dislike the same things.

If, however, it is a double-ring ceremony, the bridegroom must remove both gloves, holding them in the left hand, and then switching them to the right hand at the time the bride places his ring on his finger. •
