' ■ — Juries have been drawn for the September term of court, and soon the Court room will be buzzing with legal business. Judge Myles F. Parrish always reserves the first few days for the calling of the docket and setting of cases. It is likely first cases will be set for about September 5. o Oi— Days are getting shorter and evenings are cooler. These are sure signs of autumn and one of these mornings the leaves will be transformed into a million colors and we'll have to have our radiators checked. Where do the days <3 go? O o Senate leader Lynaon Johnson finally worked it around to get a compromise on Civil Rights and the foreign aid budget, satisfactory to the President, and of sents. We don’t think his leadercourse the South, which he repreship is representative of the Democrat party which elected him. We make a fervent prayer that through the next year, by some means -the people will get better Congressional leadership. ——<O O l— Now is an excellent time to buy your new car and whether it is used or new most local dealers will give you top dollar for your older car. It's the time of year when auto dealers like to sell their wares and get ready for new models. If you don’t mind driving a 1957 model, you’ll do well to trade now because there will be few changes in the 1958 autos except indications are the prices will be higher. —O-—O Tonight and tomorrow night there will be many more radio fans than followers of television. Thousands will be gathered around their radios to hear broadcasts of the Chicago White SoxNe w York Yankees baseball games. Results of the three games at Chicago might well determine the winner in the Junior circuit. The Yankees are tough but the Sox are a well coached team that has refused to give up. Chicago will enter the crucial series thre and a half games behind the league leading Yanks. Here' Jn the midwest everyone interested in baseball is pulling for the Sox and the possibility of an all midwest World Series. J '/■ '■

4 If you need school outfits for your children, remember you’ll get beter merchandise and better bargains right here in Decatur. Local merchants will gladly fill your needs and at prices that will not only surprise you but save you money. Shop in Decatur and watch your dollars go farther. • O O \ j As soon as it can be organized, reporters will be named for school news of the two Decatur high schools, Pleasant Mills, Adams Central and Monmouth, which will be published each week in the Daily Democrat. This has proved to be a popular feature for the Daily Democrat readers and also has proved helpful to the young reporters. 0 O— Right now is the time to check your winter heating equipment and make sure it is ready for use one of these days. There are several furnace repair men in Decatur. Be sure you know whom you are dealing with. There are sev-eral-itinerants who come through Decatur every fall and few of them make the repairs they claim. It pays to shop locally and know with whom you’re dealing. j© O Superintendent W. Guy Brown has done a great job -of filling all public school teaching vacancies and he reports everything ready for the opening of school in another week. Decatur has an excellent teaching staff and with many schools frantic for more teachers, our school system is ready .to operate. And believe us, you can search the state over and can’t find a better or more able staff. Congratulations to Supt. Brown and his school board on doing a hard job so well. —o—o- — In another month we’ll go into the final quarter of 1957. The year was not as good economically or financially as was predicted but a majority of the people have been able to live and maybe break even. High cost of everything has made it hard on the wage earner who had his overtime cut and his work week shortened and at tho same time had his taxes, state and national upped. There is no prediction of a panic or depression, but economists are going slow on their analysis of next year because of their dismal failures on guessing 1957 as a boom year.

CHAPTER 34 SOME THINGS a man never forgets; some scenes are so deeply burned into his consciousness by the white-hot iron of danger that they linger in his memory until his death. So it was now. Gene Dillingham stood In the middle of the room, his .45 In his hand, the same gun he had laid on the porch the day I, Will 'Beeson, fought him. Sarah Pardee sat in the wheel ehair behind Dillingham, her face pale, her.hands gripping the arms of her chair, but in the quick glance I gave her I saw she wasn’t panicky, and that gave me hope. All I could think of to say was, “Well, Gene, I haven’t seen you for a long time." I atomped snow from my boots; I took off my hat and beat it against my legs, then threw it on the couch. It was all the bravado I could muster, but it was enough to impress Dillingham. “By God, you’re a cool one!” he said. •Cool!” I said. "I’m cold. It must be twenty below outside." I took off my coat and tossed It after the hat Still Dillingham stood as motionless as if he and the gun were carved out of granite. I was doing the only thing I could. If I ignored the gun in his hand, there was a chance he would get rattled, a chance Sarah could produce a miracle, a chance if either Maria or Dogbone was alive and free one of them could do something. But once I provoked him into action, there was no chance at all —He stood there looking at me, the cocked gun lined on my belly. The sheer unexpectedness of my behavior left him confused and uncertain. Then Sarah said the wrong thing: “Don’t be facetious, Will. He’s here to murder us. He said ' that you’d be along before morning, and that he’d wait that long for you if he had to.” Dillingham said: "Yeah, I’ve been waitin’. Take off your gun belt and lay It on the table—alow.” J. obeyed him. - "Kathy’s all right,” I said as calmly as I could. *She tells me you got away with more than $4,000.” "That ain’t all,” Dillingham said with satisfaction. “Me'n Turner done purty well with Anchor cows this summer.” He motioned me back from the table. "I’m goln’ away a rich man, Beeson. I’m gonna be as big on some other range as Joe Pardee was on this one. That’s why I’m cleanin’ the widow out Joe always had some dinero on hand. I reckon she has, too. Where is it?” For the first time I felt that I had a chance; he presented me with the handle Td been looking for. "When you find it, will you kill us, Gene?" I asked. "Is that

ig - c Modern Etiquette | | BY ROBERTA LEK 0— - — g Q. How does a married woman’s manner of signing her name to a formal letter differ from her signing of a hotel register? A. When signing a formal letter she signs her name "Helen R. Thomas,” and then either below this signature or in the lower lefthand corner of the page adds in parentheses (Mrs. John H. Thomas). When she is registering at a hotel, she signs her name only as "Mrs. John H. Thomas.” Q. If tea is being served and a guest does not care for it, would it be all right for this guest to ask for a cup of coffee? A. Not unless the hostess asks if he or she would prefer coffee. Otherwise, drink the tea, or part . of it, and express no preference. Q. Is it all right to use the tele- ; phone to thank a person for sending flowers? A. Yes, and telephone immedi- : ately. A note of thanks, however, i ' is still better. I Q. Is it proper for a business I

the way we stand? Is it?" He nodded, his heavy lipa pressed together tightly. “Why should I tell you?” I said. "You can get it quick and easy,” he said, “or slow and hard.” He motioned with his left hand toward Sarah’s wheel chair. "You’ve always been sweet on her. If you want to save her some misery, you better talk up." Dillingham was looking intently at me, paying no attention to Sarah. To him I was the one who represented possible danger, not a paralyzed woman in a wheel chair, and in hie judgment I was the one who would lead him to Sarah's money. "She’s got a little, Gene,” I said. “I’d find it for you if I knew you’d keep your word." I had trouble keeping my voice steady. Sarah had stepped out of her chair and was walking toward the desk set against the far wall. I had to keep my eyes on Dillingham! Had tp keep him looking at me. I caught little more than a blur from the edge of my. vision, but I saw enough to shock me almost as much as Dillingham would have been shocked if he had seen her. She moved with the grace and speed of a woman who had been walking all the time, not with the labored, painful effort I had seen just before she had fallen that day weeks ago. Dillingham said: “Maybe you don’t know I’m gonna keep my word, but if you’re smart you’ll .take a chance I will." He started to turn his head. I said quickly: “Gene, If I have to peg for my life, I will.” “Getting down on your knees ain’t gonna do you no good,” he said. “I'm done waitin’. Where is it?" Sarah was at the desk pulling the top drawer open. I said: “In the couch. Sarah ripped a seam open—” “All right, all right" He pulled a knife out of his pocket and tossed it on the couch. "Slice it open and give it to me. If you got a gun over there you're tryin’ to get your hands on, you’re a goner.” I didn’t want to go to the couch. If I did, I’d be ten feet farther from the table than I was now, ten feet that would cost me seconds. Sarah was fumbling in the drawer. Sweat poured out of me and dripped down my body. Dillingham laughed. "Come on, come on!"I shook my head at him. “Use your head, Gene. There isn't much money. Just the SSOO I brought from Canon City— ’’ "Drop your gun, Gene!" Sarah's voice did not come from where she had been Bitting in her wheel chair. She had moved a good twenty feet. He must have been aware of that at once, for he remained motionless a second

man to remain seated at his desk while shoking hands with a man visitor? A. When shaking hands, a man should always rise. Usually, however — and especially in a busy office— a pleasant greeting from where he is seated is all that is required. <j. How should grapefruit be prepared for serving? A. Cut it across in half; then cut the sections free and remove the dividing skin and seeds; then put sugar into it, and allow this at least 15 minutes to soak into the fruit before serving. 0 g Household Scrapbook BY ROBCRTA LH 0 Mildew in Shoes To prevent shoes from mildewing in dark closets during warm, damp weather, keep them on shoe trees or stuffed with paper and placed in a well ventilated, dry, light place.

or so, too surprised to turn. When he did, I lunged toward the table. She fired, and I heard him yell in pain, heard his gun strike the floor; then I grabbed my holster in one hand and my gun in the other and yanked it free. When I got my eyes on Dillingham, he was bending over, reaching for his .45 with his left hand. I shot him. He fell, and I fired again. I went to him and turned him over with my boot He was dead. I laid my gun on the table, and swung around to face Sarah, who was walking toward me. She clutched a small single-shot pistol in her right hand, a gun she had used for target shooting before she'd had her accident. “1 shot him in the hand; 1 shot him in the hand and made him drop his gun!” she said shrilly. "I couldn’t make myself kill him, Will. I couldn’t!” She was near me, then, her arms reaching for me, and I caught her as she started Ao fall. She whimpered: "The cooler, Will! He locked Maria and Dogbone in there.” She fainted, her head rolling sideways grotesquely. I laid her oh the couch and ran through life kitchen to the heavy saw-dust-filled door that opened into the cooler. Maria rushed out, screaming something in Spanish. Dogbone lay on the floor on his back. I picked him up and felt his head. He’d been knocked cold, just as Kathy Morgan had been. I carried him into a bedroom. When I went into the front room, Maria was on her knees _ beside the couch, talking to Sarah in Spanish. I told Maria to take care of both of them. Then I put on n.y coat and hat and, dragging Dillingham'sbody behind me, went bgck into the stoftn. When J reached the barn, I searched him apd found a money belt buckled around his middle just as Turner’s had been. I covered the body with a piece of canvas, went to the bunkhouse, and lighted a lamp and built a fire. I left the money belt on the bunk and took care of my horse. I found Dillingham’s horse and put him in the barn, then carried the heavy saddlebags into the bunkhouse. Kathy's money, 1 thought—money she would hay« used to buy the Box P if she’d had her way. I sat down beside the stove and held out my hands to it Thougl it was hot, so hot I had to mov< buck, I was still cold and shiver ing.

Whitewash en Glass If window glass is splashed with whitewash, use a cloth dampened in vinegar and wipe over the spots, then wash with warm suds, to which a little ammonia has been added. with a clean cloth. Tea Tea will keep much better in a glass jar with a close-fitting top than in a tin receptacle. Oil on Concrete Old oil spots on concrete can be removed as follows: Mix up a paste of cleaning fluid and fuller's earth. Spread this on the spots and wait until it’s completely dry before sweeping it off with a broom.
