If you’re taking a trip this up-week-end, drive with care. r.-: ■» Forecast is for a pleasant and cool week-end. These late summer days which cool off at night are wonderful for living. Let’s hope for a lot of them. — Work on the new hospital addition is still going along ahead of schedule and officials at Yost Construction Co. believe that the present schedule will be maintained. Before too many weeks, Adams county will have fulfilled a dream of hospital board trustees and personnel and this county win have one of the finest smaU hospitals in the nation. o o ■ ■■ The only way to get relief from high taxes is for every citizen to take an active part in the various hearings. Very few people ever attend these hearings, but good public officials welcome attendance at the rate fixings. They can’t perform miracles and it is not unusual for mistakes to be made which would greatly alter the rates of various units. Remember It’s your money they’re spending, and they should welcome suggestions from any taxpayer. o - o September term of Adams Circuit Court will start soon and during the interim, the Court rooms on the second floor of the Court House have been cleaned and made ready for the usual busy days. Judge Myles F. Parrish has held Court one day each week during vacation so entries would not pile up and so important business could be transacted. Also as a vacation, Judge Parrish has acted as special Judge several Jay County matters.

If you’re planning a lake trip i this week-end, be sure and observe the safety rules pertaining to boats and swimming. We have had numerous deaths from drowning in northern Indiana this summer and many have resulted from carelessness, same as that which causes many auto mishaps. O' "O'" - Ex-Governor George Craig isn’t . going to be left holding the sack in Indiana, with his former “buddies’’ basking in the Florida sunshine in ill gotten wealth. Announcement has been made that the Craig family is moving to Maryland. The Craig administration was one of the darkest in Hoosier political history and it will take years to actually ascertain the damage financially and morally done to Indiana. The ring leaders perhaps will never be punished, but by studying history of candidates a little more thoroughly in the future instead of listening to political “clap-trap” we can safeguard our future. L_ __o_—o The state highway department has been cut off of federal aid because of its failure to file a report concerning what it had done, if anything, to clean up the land buying scandal in Indiana. Certainly the federal bureau of roads is entitled to such information, if it is going to send millions of dollars here to improve our road system. Perhaps if Chairman Peters would show a little effort to actually clean up the big steal, rather than just talk, our state would again be in the good graces of the federal government. It'g a mess that the people of Indiana will have an opportunity to clean up at the next general election and let’s hope that they do.

Pictured above are 96 of the 97 auctioneers who were graduated Friday from the 74th session of the Reppert School of Auctioneering. Comprising the front row, seated, are some of the instructors of the three week training school, along with the secretary of the national auctioneers association. One of the school’s students, Paul D. Niday, of Gallipolis, Ohio, was absent the day the picture was taken. These men. representing 25 states and one province of Canada, attended morning, afternoon and evening classes at the school, since its beginning July 29. They were instructed in all phases of auctioneering technique, and later were given opportunities to gain practical experience. Friday morning, prior to graduation, each of the students presented farewell speeches. This session of auctioneers’ “goodbyes” lasted from 7 a.m. until after 10 a m. At 11 a.m., Dr. Roland Reppert, manager of the school, was host to a graduation

CHAPTER 30 Eric BRAHMS’ cattle tally had been shojt this fait Naturally, he blamed the settlers, Irv Costello bad fanned his temper until it was ready to burst into flame. As for Costello, he nad been in a hanging mood for weeks. If trouble did start, it might not stop until Mathers and Scott and all of them on the West Fork were dead or driven from the country. And my wife, Nela, was with Mathers, her father. By the time I reached Canon City, 1 was in a torment of worry, but there comes a time when flesh reaches the end of its endurance, even under the quirting of the spirit 1 weighed the eventualities and decided 1 nad ample time. Costello would not move by himself. The others, including Brahms, would hesitate before attacking the colonists. Though my decision was forced upon me by compelling weariness, I hoped I was right 1 left my horse at a livery stable and then wearily climbed the stairs to Ben Sawhill's office. He said, "How are you, Will?” and shook hands with me, but I sensed at once that he was not his usual cordial self. 1 was too tired to be tactful. I asked, point-blank, “What’s wrong, Ben?” "I was going to ask you that,” He motioned to a chair, “Sit down.” I gave him the money I had brought from Leadville and sprawled into the chair. "Sarah told me to turn this over to you. You’re to figure the profit, I guess." “And divide ft That’s what I was going to ask about I thought you and Sarah would never nave a falling out but she writes she's dissolving the partnership.” "You want to know ■ the trouble ?” “That’s what Tm asking.” "Nela and I told her we got married the day before we started roundup.” Sawhill leaned back in his chair, puzzled. "What’s that got to do with it? I mean, Sarah shouldn’t object to your getting married." “No, but site does.” I motioned to the desk. “Go ahead. Do your figuring. I guess Sarah doesn’t trust me.” 1 slept tn my chair until he woke me. He had put the money Into several canvas sacks. One he would deposit tn the bank for Sarah, another was my share, and a third held the SSOO I was to take to Sarah. I got to my feet, a little groggy. I I said: “Ben, Saj'ali gave me half |

the Box P. I'm going to hang onto that” “Better think that over, Will,” he said. "You came to the Box P empty-handed. You’ve had a home for eight years, a job that paid well, and now you've just been given hall of the Box P’s profit for the past year, and you’ve already received your regular wages. That’s more than fair, man.” "You’ve been reading Sarah’s letter,” 1 said, "but you don't add it up right. 1 aim to hang onto what’s mine and fight tor it. If I don’t, she won't have anything." As I walked to the door, he called out, “What in Heaven’s name is happening, Will ?" I leaned wearily against the door casing. “Ben, Sarah Pardee is not the unselfish woman we have always thought she was. She’s small and self-centered—” “Stop it!” He started toward me, his hands fisted. “Have you gone daft, Will?” "You’ll love her, no matter what you find out about her?” I asked. “Os course! I’ll never change, but—” “Maybe you should pay a visit to the Box P,“ I said. "She’s not going to marry John Mathers. And while you’re there, give her some advice. She’ll have to get along with me as a partner or sell out to me. 1 think she’d better sell She hates the Box P, but it’s different with me.” From Sawhill’s office I iwent to the bank, barely reaching it before closing time, and deposited my money. Then I asked to see the president, and arranged for the backing I would need to buy Sarah’s share of the ranch. I didn't know whether Sarah would sell, but I had a hunch that Sawhill would go to the Box P and that Sarah would turn to him just as she had turned to John Mathers a year ago. Because he had no great obsession, except his love for Sarah, Ben would be the right man for ner. I had a meal in the hotel dining room, took a room, and went to sleep at once, sprawling across the bed with my clothes on. I was in the saddle on my way out of town before dawn, not even taking time for breakfast. I was home hours earlier than either Curly or Red could have expected me, but they had been watching, and they were saddled up by the time I rode into the yard As I swung down, Curly said: “That animal's about finished. Want me to saddle Roanic tor you?” • ■ “What's up?” I "Four of ’em colonists," Red said. “Crossed the line throe days ’

ago. Tore down your sign. Starting to put up cabins.” Funny, the way I felt inside. Here it was, the thing 1 had Known would happen. 1 bad told myself what 1 would do. I had told Sarah and Mathers and my crew. Yet now 1 wanted no part of it. There would be women and kids down there, and somebody would get hurt. "They won’t be expecting you for another five, six hours," Red said. "I told 'em you’d gone to Canon City but that they’d better look out when you got back.” His words irritated me. He had had no business saying anything to them. That was my Job. I said, “You boys don’t have to go.” Red flared back, "We don’t want to hear no more of that crazy talk.” "All right,” I said. "Saddle Roanie. Just be sure you don't start the trouble. I’ll start it.” 1 walked to the house. Sarah was sewing near the window. She looked at me warily, as if not certain what I would say or do. She asked, "Did you see Ben?" "I saw him.” I tossed the money on the couch. "There’s your $500.” “Thank you, Will. You can pack up—” "Sarah," I said, “I’m not packtrig up. Either we go on being partners, or I’ll buy you out. I can raise the money u you don’t set an unreasonable price on your half of the ranch and stock.” I turned toward the door. "Where are you going?" she asked. "I’ve got a chore to attend to." She guessed then, and cried out, "No, Will, no! I don’t want you killed!” But 1 went out of the house and crossed the muddy yard to ' where Roanie stood saddled and > waiting.

ALPA, representing 12.000 commercial airline pilots, had charged that some flights failed to attain scheduled time "even once over a period of a month.” The union accused the airlines of publishing flight schedules “for public consumption which in many instances are so erroneous, mis--1 leading and unrealistic as to constitute a deceptive practice.” Airline officials had retorted that the pilots were "grinding a finan- ■ cial axe.” One carrier spokesman i said many ALPA contracts specify that crews be paid for actual flight . time or scheduled time, whichever : is greater. i “So if tit? schedules were stretched beyond normal flight , times, they'd get more money,” the airline executive declared.
