In another month or two baseball teams will be heading for training grounds and in March, exhibition games will start. Then the 1958 season will begin with two new cities. Los Angeles and San Francisco in the major leagues. It promises to be a great season. ■“ O ; ' 0 ——- The many friends of Mrs. J. W. Calland, who was removed yesterday from Adams county Memorial hospital to Fort Wayne Lutheran hospital all wish her a speedy recovery. The prominent Decatur woman has been ill for more than two weeks. o—o For the first 102 days of 1958, the average Indiana taxpayer will work for the tax collector, according to figures compiled by the state Chamber of Commerce. To pay your 1958 tax bill, federal, - state and local it will take that many work days to pay your tax bills. Much of this tax money is paid because we do not take enough interest in our government’s functions. Many, many dollars could be cut from our tax bills if each of us would be more active in affairs of government. Big trouble is that we are only interested when we figure out our taxes and then of course it is too late. So when our taxes rise it actually is our own fault.

Those polar bear weather lovers shouldn’t complain over the present temperatures. And indications are that we’ll have some spell of real winter weather. We who are working and haven’t felt the depression should be appreciative and take an interest in our work. If everybody gives a good honest hour, you’ll not only feel better, but your employers will be satisfied and they too will work harder to keep you on the job. —o — -o From the talk you hear wherever people congregate there will be plenty of candidates for the various offices in the county to assure both major political parties of outstanding candidates for public offices. We should read and inquire concerning each candidate. We should know that the candidates we plan to vote for are ror good and economical government. It is away to start tax reductions. If we get candidates in each party pledged to economy in government, we will be | on our way to lower local taxes, j We also should support candi- 1 dates whom we believe will make i good .officials for the post they i seek. Poorest business in the world is to support someone just because we feel sorry for them. If we do we invariably get that kind of government.

CHAPTER 35 Andrew garvins house was dark except for the one room in which ihe painted, ate, slept, and brooded away long dragging days of loneliness. On that wild night, weeks ago, the light in that room had suddenly gone'out when Deborah knocked on the door. She remembered how rebuffed and bewildered she ha 3 felt at the time. Well, fromi now on Andrew Garvin would be able to open his door with confidence at any hour. He would no longer be a target for idle tongues and eyes. >r ’ This time, while Deborah’s knock still echoed, a curtain was drawn back from one of the lighted windows and the' 'artist Stood there, outlined. Deborah moved back from the door to let the light fall on her, to let him who it was that came knocking at this hour. He let the curtain drop. In a few seconds the hall light went on, she heard footsteps approaching, and then the door swung open. Andrew stood looking out at her. His frowning eyes traveled over her from head to toe. He stared into the darkness beyond, as if expecting to see someone in the background. “Deborah! My God, what’s happened to you? You look as If you’d been in the wars!” “Are you going to let me tn ?” 61je asked weakly. “Or must 1 faint again on your doorstep?” “Come in, of course.” ne said quickly, pushing the door wider. It was all she Could do to take the two steps that Brought her over the threshold into the house. After that, Andrew supported her, with an arm about her waist, through the hall, into the lighted living room, and eased her into s chair tn front ot the fire. He said something about fetching brandy but she shook her head.

“I'll be all right in a minute. I've been through a lot tonight.. Now it's up to you. You've got to—” ■ The warmth of the fire, the > comfort of the - chair, brought a irowsy lassitude stealing over hfc senses, stilling her tongue, making her head nod, making it difficult to think, far less speak. - "Yes?” said Andrew, after a little while. He regarded her curiously. “WbaVwere you going to say ? What have 1 got to do ?” "You’ve got to stand up for yourself. It’s up to you to prove your innocence.” “How can I?" His eyes were fixed keenly on her face. They shifted for a sec« ond to the crude parcel in her arms. ' SB “I’ve found it,” she said dizzily. In another moment she was going

to let her head drop, she was going to pass out. “Found what?” he asked. “Deborah, can you hear me? What have you found?” 1 "Os course 1 can hear you,” she said, rousing herself with difficulty. "I've found-'-what the police searched fqx so long in vain. 4’ve found the missing weapon." . . He was silent. She looked up and saw him turning away, going slowly to the mantelpiece and resting an arm on it, letting his head drop until it rested on the arm. "Don’t you see what that means?” she said. “There may be fingerprints." "So there may,” he said quietly, without, looking at her. Lt was a strain to force herself ,to be fully awake but she made the effort. There was so much to tell him. About the obviously blackmailing note that first caused her to suspect that Scoble had the Weapon, About her visits to his shack to spy out the land and make friends with the watchdog. About the nocturnal adventure that almost ended in disaster. "And that’s it?" he asked, raising his head. "Yes.” “Let me see."

"It ought not, to be handled until the police test it in their laboratory. 1 don’t know much about fingerprints but surely there's a danger of smudging them.” “Give me the statuette," he said compellingly, reaching out a hand. Deborah stared at him. His lean, haggard face looked sickly. "What did you say?” *“'7 “My dear girl,” he said, controHing himself by a visible - effort, “there’s' no need to look so startled. 1 only asked to be permitted to examine your prize, whatever It is.” "You said ‘the statuette.' How did you know it's a statuette? Even the police don't know that It only stood at your wife’s bedside for a short time before she was murdered." "Did 1 say ’statuette’? 1 suppose that’s hqw you described it When you were telling me.” "I didn’t it 1 said ’the weapon.' ” She had risen unsteadily to her feet Now she started edging toward the door. He was there before her. He put his back to it. His expression was odd, as if he felt overwhelmingly sorry for her. -- "You’re exhausted and nervous," he said gently. “You're been through so much, it’s no wonder your mind is ready to

Complaint For Damage* In the complaint for damages of Elmer Tindall vs. Sylvester Kiser and Isobel Kiser, Custer and Smith enter a general appearance for the defendants. k — —• Factory To Locate Soon At Portland A company which will manufacture plastic and glass items, including caskets, is expected to locate soon at Portland, according to an item in the Portland Com-mercial-Review-.

Close your eyes Try to get a little sleep.” His tone was soothingly hypnotic but she knew she must not be swayed by it. “If I'm as tired as all that,” she said, trying desperately to speak lightly, “I’d better go home. Come and see rrte if> the morning. We’ll talk things over then, 'when I’m mor< mysetf-’t; “Don’t be a little fool,” said Andrew Garvin, quite calmly. “You know* quite well 1 can’t let you walk out of here. Put the statuette down over there, on the table, and stand back from IL" A shaky laugh came out of Deborah without her volition; she could not help it. “And I believed in you! 1 thought it dreadful that an innocent man should be persecuted.” "Do you think persecution is the woritr„of ft? How little you know. When a man destroys the thing he values most the rest of his days are spent regretting it." “Please don’t tell me you’re sorry you killed her!” said Deborah angrily.

A little more pressure on your throat, and that would have been the end of you. 1 hoped a fright would be enough." In a pitying tone, he added, “You see, I didn’t want to Kill you." A shiver passed through her slim body but she said, almost boldly: "You didn’t want to kill your wife ... but you did.” "As long as 1 Uve—and, believe me, I intend to live—l’ll regret it. ,It wouldn’t have happened if she hadn’t driven me out of my wits with anger.
