The weather the past few days has been wonderful for this time ©f year, and certainly we ean’t complain so far. o o— May the best team win in the annual Adams county basketball tourney, which reminds us it won't be long until the race for the state championship starts. o— —oH— You still have time to take advantage of several clearance sales now in progress in Decatur stores. You will find the very best at the very lowest. It is to your advantage to do all your shopping in Decatur where the merchants assure you that you’ll get more for your shopping dollars. Read the advertisements in the Democrat every night and take advantage of the moneysavers. • —o o—— Secretary of the Treasury Anderson has hinted that if the depression continues, a tax cut will be recommended. We don’t like to think of the necessity of a depression to compel lower taxes but a tax reductiofi certainly would be welcome. Apparently everyone is taking it for granted now that we are having a depression and maybe Congress could well investigate this along with missiles and other matters which the Administration has garbled.

Many'other aspirants for various county offices still are undecided but there is no doubt that there will be several interesting contests.

WRAT IS HAPPENING , Until now. no woman except their widowed mother has jived on the ranch that the three O'Dare brothers work in wild Oklahoma Territory of 4 the 1900a. Cord, the eldest, is the "ladies man." but Luther, the mildmannered second brother, la the first to take a wife. Cord picked out the bride. Edna Shore and Luther courted her by mail. Luther and Edna were married in Ponca City the day she arrived by train from Chicago, There's trouble after the wedding between Cord and Bill Hageman. Cord accused Bill of being a cattle rustler and a bitter fight resulted, with Cord the fictor. Bill s sister Julie is one of the women attracted to Cord, much to the iealous resentment of Smoke, the youngest O'Dare brother. Smoke is telling the story. ... ; ‘ CHAPTER 8 I SUDDENLY felt a little better ’ about what had happened tn Lanahan's Saloon, and a little guilty for even thinking that Cord would ever pick a fight without a good reason. A man ought to have more f&ith in jus own blood kin, but I guess Cord, understood me well enough. Surely a lot better than I understood him. When we got on the home place, 1 -took the horses to the barn and gave them a good rubdown with clean straw. Cord went on to the house. When I waa finished,,_J cut across the yard and, danger! if I know why, used the front door instead of the back. Luther and Edna were sitting on the horsehair sofa witii the stereopticon and a bunch of cards strewn around, but they had given that up for kissing. They broke away quickly when I closer* the door. " ’Scuse me.” I said and didn’t K 'fool either ot them. Ma heard me and came down the hall. "Smoke, for land’s sake, can’t yon see they want to be alone?" She took me by the arm as though I was six years old arfd marched me into the kitchen, now heavy with the flavors ot peach pie. "You want something to eat ?” This was a needless question because I never passbrl up food. Cord was finishing a plate ot eggs and some cold meat. He winked at me when I sat down and- I knew- there would .be no questions from Ma about the fracas tn town. Cord had handled this tn his own way, as only he could handle it. I don’t recall Ma ever, being as gay as she was the rest of that day. We didn’t’do mueft work, just hung around the house. Toward mid-afternoon Luther took Edna for a ride In the buggy to show' her part of the ranch. They headed toward the river and the cottonwood groves down there and it was nearly - dark before they came hack. 1 was by the barn when they drove Into the yard. Edna got down and went I© Copyright. 1957, by Janies Keei fl

ever, sense the proper moment to drop formalities. If everyone else in the circle in which you move uses first names, you are at liberty to follow the trend. Q. Is it proper to send out wedding invitations and announcements in the name of the bride’s brother, if their parents are dead? A. Yes; this isquite often done. Q. Is it correct, when setting the table, to lay two or three spoons crosswise above each plate? A. No; this custom is obsolete. ' Q. How are invitations issued to a tea? A. By telephone or informal note. F6r a very formal tea|, the eta-red form is to mail a visiting card with date and hour and the word “Tea” written on it. Q. When writing a letter or note to a brother and sister, may one address the envelope, “Miss Patricia and Brother”? A. Never. The envelope should be addressed either to the sister or the brother, but never to both. Q. Can an elopement be properly announced? A. Yes; announcement of the marriage can be made by the bride’s parents just as it would be ordinarily.

on to the house while Luther put up the team. Cord came out and walked to the bam. I saw him speak to Luther but was too far away to hear what he said. Cord laughed and Luther got pretty sore, but by the time he walked aeross the vard he was over It. Julie came across the river, which surprised me. considering how the day had turned out. Ma came out as she dismounted oy the porch, a smile splitting the melon plumpness of her cheeks. "My, my, you brought something,” she said, noticing the bundle under Juliets arm. “Yes.” Julie said. ‘lt‘» a quilt my mother made for me. I’d like Edna to have it.” “Hardly blanket weather,” I said and Ma shot me a look that said to shut my mouth. This seemed to fluster Julie, then I realized too late that this was all she had to give, and my big mouth had made it pretty apparent. Ma took Julie’s arm and led her inside. “Cord's around someplace,” she said. “Go fetch him, Smoke. He'll like to see Julie.” I went as far as the porch, then stopped. Danged if I was going to make a match there, even though Ma had her heart set on it. After a decent interval of time had passed, I skirted the house and entered by the back door. Edna and Luther were seated _arpund the table: Julie sat across from them and Ma was bringing coffee from the stove. She saw me and said, “Get a cup for yourself.” “It's so flat here,” Edna waa saying. "But I like it The air smells so clean and fresh.” "Different from Chicago,” Julia said. "Os course. I was only there once. My- mother is buried there.” "Couldn’t you find Cord?” Ma asked. J looked at her quickly, trying to think of a suitable lie that she wouldn’t immediately see through. Julie glanced up and knew instantly that I hadn’t even looked : for him. see him in the yard,” 1 said. “You want me to ' look again I’ll .. "Oh, drink your coffee,” Ma said. "Land's sake, you're blind in one eye and can't see out ,qf, the other.” “1 really have to be going,” Julie said, rising. When she said , her and made her promises to visit again, I edged out : the door and was waiting by her i horse when she walked up. Very softly she said, “You’re a i poor liar, Smoke. You didn’t look i for Cord.” “You gave me the idea you r dirfnt want to see hini," I said. ■ “Perhaps I didn’t," she said and : stepped into the saddle. “Smoke, iif; reprinted by pcrnii.-.sioo ot the novi flint ributed by King Features Syndic*!

Edna’s nice. I like her ” “Going to take some getting used to." I said. "We all have to make our adjustments. Smoke. Give her —achance. Will you promise me that?” “Sure, but what . . “A woman gets lonely out here, Smoke.

With that she wheeled around and rode oack toward the river. I watched her for a time, then went back into the house. That night the kitchen table groaned under the weight of Ma s cooking, and 1 ate too much of everything. With the sun gone, a cool breeze came up. scuffing dust along the flats. Cord went to the front porch to sit With Ma while Luther and Edna went to the parlor. This kind of made me extra baggage and I walked to the horse corral to look at a new foaL 1 couldn’t help thinking of Julie Hageman because she was always in my mind, one way or another. But now I had a good reason for thinking of her and the more I thought, the stronger grew the desire to see her again. Sounds pretty silly, don’t it? Especially after her recent visit. But we hadn't talked about the things that really needed talk. Just three miles across the river she was sitting alone with her trouble and because 1 was an O’Dare, 1 couldn’t deny the responsibility for my part in it, ——- Ma and Cord were around the other side of the house and Luther’ was so wrapped up m Edna that he wouldn’t know if a twister blew in from Kansas. Figuring that I could sneak out without them knowing it, 1 quietly saddled up and led my horse out of the yard. When I’d put enough distance between myscll and the i nouse, 1 stepped into the saddle and rode toward the river. This was the part of our propI erty 1 liked the best. 1 knew every rabbit warren among the rushes lining both banks, and when I ‘ was a lot younger, 1 used to spend I considerable time there, exploring all the cavelike openings in the : brush. A man could cross most • any place, for the river bottom was fairly solid and the water . was no higher than a pony's belly. : 1 splashed across and struck out for the distant ranch buildings, r and in less than ah hour, I came into Bill Hageman’s yard to disI mount by the poi-ch. . .

To Install New Aga Khan January 23 Vast Territory Os Coverage For Khan KARACHI. Pakistan <UP) —As spiritual leader of the 20 millionstrong Moslem Ismaili sect, the new Aga Khan has a lot of territory to cover. The new Aga's faithful followers range from Nairobi in Africa jto Chitral near the Russo-Chinese border, and from Singapore to i Buenos Aires. Prince Karim, a 21 - year -old Harvard undergraduate, will be officially installed in Karachi as Aga Khan IV next Thursday. Jan. 23, although he assumed the title in a token ceremony last summer. As such, he is regarded by the Ismailis, a Moslem sect particularly strong in Africa, India and i Pakistan,, as the 49th lineal descendant of Hazrat Ali, the son--in-law of the prophet Mohammed Ismailis from such widely diverse places as Argentina and i Goa are expected to attend the j lavish ceremony. Many Will Attend ;■ They will be joined by their fellow believers from Pakistan, [lran, Iraq. Bahrein, Kuwait, Malaya, Singapore, Ceylon. India, Burma, Lebanon. Syria, England, France, Belgium, Africa and probably BrazilSo big is the expected turnout that, . the committee making the i arrangements is building a camp ;to accommodate 25.000 persons j who will be unable to find hotel I space. Although the new Aga possesses ! the same following, it is doubtful if he will be able to capture the ■headlines and fill the wide footsteps of his globe-trotting grandfather. Received Gifts Aga Khan HI is perhaps best remembered as the father-in-law of Rita Hayworth and the rotund ■ chap who received his weight in ! gold in 1935, in diamonds in 1946 ■ and in platinum in 1954. All were gifts from his Ismaili following. He was the Aga Khan for '7O of his 78 years, and before his death last summer, he was a successful diplomat, a past president of the League of Nations, a businessman and a multi - millionaire breeder and racer qf thoroughbred horses. The late Aga spoke English, French, Arabic and Persian. He helped dissuade Moslems throughout the world from, joining Turkey in aholy war against the British in 1914. He traveled around the world, was a friend of the British royalty and married a former Miss France. , Robert Brown, who identified himself as a native of Geneva, was a contestant on the Groucho Marx program Thursday night on TV. He is now a resident of California, where he is a court bailiff. John Colchin erf 119 N. sth, Decatur, was admited to the Adams county memorial hospital Friday for observation and treatment. His condition this morning was considered satisfactory. CHURCHES ¥ ATT 1 TUTTHC fIJLdL j/xULIJuO 9 . ■ . ■ t ; - ' k . WELCOMI ▼AGON ‘ -T*-
