Assessment deadline is April 1 and if you haven’t turned in your personal property assessment you should do so this week. It takes about six weeks, then for the assessor and his deputies to compile the information which they have gathered. ——o o—— Krushchev has become the sole boss in Russia, comparable to the job of the late Premier Stalin. He will run the Russian affairs and no doubt similarly to Stalin. For many years the job has been divided, but effective at once the affairs will be run from the one-man dictatorship. It is too early to know, what effect, if any the change will have on our not too friendly relations with the Communist nation. oi—o— C. V. Kimmell, for 22 years, Allen county agent, has resigned and will accept an advisory agricultural job in Turkey. The well known and popular agricultural agent will be missed by his thousands of northern Indiana friends. Mr. and Mrs. Kimmell will go to Washington, D. C. soon and after an indoctrination course they will fly to their new home. Just about every farmer in the north part of the state is acquainted personally with Mr. 'Kimmell. We wish them happiness in their new undertaking.

Gov. Handley, who recently underwent a serious operation is reported to be on the road to recovery and it is believed he will be back in his office in a couple or three weeks. We join all citizens of the state in wishing him a speedy recovery. o—o— Talk is starting now concerning chairmen for the Democratic and Republican chairmanships of the county. The chairmen and other county offices are elected the Saturday following the primary and the jobs extend for two years. It is important to have good chairmen and vice chairmen in order to have good elections. Let's get busy now and get the best available party officers. -—-o Don’t fail to visit the second floor of the public library in the next two weeks and see the egg tree. This year’s tree is regarded as the best ever shown and it has numerous new eggs on it. It will take you two or three visits if you want to see all of the beautifully decorated eggs, so plan at least two or more visits. You will Q see something new each time. Children from almost every school in a radius of fifty miles visit the tree each year and traffic so far has been by far the heaviest in the ten year history * of the tree.

CHAPTER 19 "pHE THREE horses went at a 1 foot pace along one of the bridle paths, moving from sun to shadow among the trees. The day " was magnificent for a ride but Mr. Potter was aware that his companions were not enjoying it. Frank was subdued and Stuart was somber. Both of them, however. were making an effort to establish some links of good will, tacitly assuming that Deming and not his son was responsible for Stuart's year of imprisonment. Frank rode ahead, his carriage easy. The farther they got from the inn the more at peace he seemed. Stuart Young bobbed up and down, frowning. "Something wrong with that horse?" Mr. Potter asked. Stuart grinned at him. “It's not the horse, it’s this accursed saddle. No pommel, nothing to hold onto.” “Used to western saddles, I take it” “When I’ve been forced to ride, which is as seldom as possible. In a world of jet planes who Wants a horse?" Frank said suddenly, "God, it’s good ta> get out of that inn.” "I still don’t like leaving Nora," Stuart said stubbornly. “She needs someone with her.” “I wonder If she does,” Frank said. "If you ask me, both Nora and I have had about all the supervision we can take. She has nearly been stifled with protection." “But Potter here —" Stuart began. He hesitated. “Do you honestly believe Mrs. Riddle was pushed down the stairs?” “I honestly do.” “Because someone thought she was Nora?” “I’m not sure about that,” Mr. Potter admitted. “Don’t mind me,” Frank said bitterly. “I’m not an utter foot If anyone killed Olive thinking she was Nora it was to prevent her from signing her new will. And that means Dad or one of the Hugers or me. Naturally, Young is out. He has everything to gain by keeping Nora alive until her will is signed.” “Dam you,” Stuart began, but Frank went on without heeding him. “It’s- just not true. Aside from the fact that none of us is hard up—and if you have my father in mind I can tell you right now he> pretty well heeled—we’re none of us killers.” “But someone,” Mr. Potter said i gently, “killed Candy.” Frank jabbed bls horse in the

Is it proper for the “dummy” in a bridge game to make any comments on the play? ■“ A No: he should be the “silent witness.” Any advice, criticism or applause of his partner’s play shows lack of manners. ■■■' 1 • 11 "■ ■ ' ■ | f Household Scrapbook BY ROBERTA LEE o o Buying a Mop When purchasing a mop. a good method of testing it is to shake it well and see if the strings stand alone fend do not mat together.

side and it broke into a canter. Stuart clutched for a nonexistent pommel and pulled on the reins. t Mr. Potter showed him how to grip with his knees and ride his stirrups. With a doubtful nod Stuart concentrated on keeping on his horse. As he slapped down bard , on the saddle he grinned at Mr. Potter. ‘‘l'm’ just as glad Nora i isn’t hdre to watch this perform- , ance.” Frank had pulled up where the • trees thinned and there was a long vista of distant hills. “Nice i country," he said. “A nice long distance," Stuart commented. “After those months in jail a view like that helps get the bars out of my mind. When Nora and I are married I’d like a cross-country automobile trip for a honeymoon. Southern route, so we’ll escape the bad weather. How soon do you think it will be before they let us go?” "Not until they find out who killed Candy," Mr. Potter said. "By the way, I meant to tell you. I discovered that photograph Os her, the one Nora lost." Stuart expelled a long breath. “Where was it?" i Mr. Potter explained, "The queer thing is that Captain Foote says the words ‘Love from Gandy' check with Candy’s letters.” "But there is no clue as to who sent Nora that picture,” Stuart said. "That was a cruel thing to do to her. I wish I could take her away.” “Look here, Young,” Frank said awkwardly, “you have no reason to like the Demings, but I can tell you the old man never pulled a trick like that. His mind doesn’t work that way. Anyhow, where would he get hold of the picture? , Actually, I don’t remember the papers ever carried a picture of Candy." "Dark hair,” Mr. Potter said, “combed smooth and wrapped in a braid around her head like a coronet, a cute turned-up nose, a dimple in her cheek." Frank said in a startled voice, "But that’s not—” and stopped. “How do you know?” Mr. Potter asked gently. Frank was silent “How well did you know (ian- ; dy, Frank?" Stbart looked from one man to i the other, puzzled. Then, seeing ' Mr. Potter’s gravity, Frank’s dist turbance, his face hardened. “Do • you mean to say this rat—•* “Hold it,” Mr. Potter warned I him. “How about it, Frahk?

"So that's why you commandeered Tom to look after Nora this morning." "That’s why. I wanted to talk to you. How did you meet Candy?” “We were both out riding,"” Frank said sullenly. “Go on, Frank. You’ve talked yourself into this. Now you’d better talk yourself out.” “But that’s all there was,” Frank protested. “We rode together. I tried to date her for dinner or something but she always put me oft Nicely, of course. She was a nice girt That's all there ever was to it” "Where were you when she was killed?” “At the tavern having a few beers.” Mr. Potter shook his head. “I think not There’s a reason for Jones being around. If you were in the clear you wouldn’t have a bodyguard. Where were you?” “At her cottage,” Frank said in a sick voice. “She had finally relented, said she’d show me her drawings some day. I hung around for an hour or so but she didn’t show up so I went back to the inn.” j "Still not good enough. Her neighbors across the street said no one came there.” “I was on horseback. I rode through the woods and came up back of the place. No one could have seen me. So help me God, that’s the truth.” “How much did your father know?” “He'd seen us together once at the riding ring when we were taking some low hurdles. He made me tell him who she waa So when she was killed I had to account to him for my time.” "So that’s why he lied about me,” Stuart said thickly. “No,” Frank said, and Mr. Potter wondered at the boy’s need to protect his father. "He never lies He honestly believed he saw you that day.” "And what," Stuart said, “could be more convenient Jor him than that? You’re a couple erf liars and I wouldn't believe either of you on oath." He turned his horse and rode back In the direction from which they had come. "Keep out of Young's way,” Mr. Potter warned Frank. “He’s mad clear down to the ground, and with good reason.” Mr. Potter la getting done to uncovering a secret about Candy Kendrick.
