Remember tomorrow is the day to vote. You owe it to your nation, county and city to cast a vote. It is the way we have in expressing our desire as to who our officers will be. If we lose or surrender that right it won't be long before we have no rights at all. Voting is the only way we have to show our preference toward selection of officials. We should guard it sacredly. o o— All of the contests are on the Democratic ticket. There are two candidates for Congress; two for county assessor, two for commissioner in the first, and three for commissioner in the third district, and several for township trustee and advisory board members. t o o—— Strange as it seems, attendance at major league baseball games is far greater than a year ago. Part of this is due to the transfer of two teams to the west coast, but much of it is because of inereased interest in the oldtime major league cities. Baseball ft~a great game, and almost everyone in the country is interested in it. ——O O r- " The Senate after several futile attempts op the part of the G.O.P. minority finally passed a statute prohibiting convicted felons from handling union funds. The other amendments were beaten down in the theory that a completely new labor bill will be taken up later and the amendments can be argued- at that time. —o — o—— General Motors has served a notice on CIO-AFL Auto Workers that it planned to sjever its contract with the Union when the present contract expires. President Walter Reuther immediately said “we don’t plan to strike.” o.o Call telephone number 3-2171 latest election returns. Circuits will be open all night and final results will be listed in the local and congressional district contest.

Be sure and cast your vote Tuesday. It is both your right and duty as a citizen. ■ -0..---o— It will soon be good fishing weather. Get your home work done and get ready to spend some fine hours sitting in your favorite lake spot. It’s great rest and relaxation and chances are you will be well repaid for the hours you put in. ——o o With summer trips only a few weeks away, think about equipping) your car with a fire extinguisher. With all of your family loaded for a trip, and clothes, camping equipment and other gear tightly packed into the car, what will happen if fire breaks out, from a careless match, cigarette, or from the car itself? A small fire extinguisher will dispel all doubt, and allow you to make a trip. —-o——o There are still a lot of complaints about dogs barking in the night and also about them running wild over newly planted grass and gardens. These complaints come from all parts of the city. It seems as if it could be well worth the money if we had a special police detail for a few weeks until the bad ones be caught and either taken home or otherwise disposed of. If this isn’t done there might be some harmful shootings which wouldn't help anyone. o o Be sure and plan to attend the Merchants’ Showcase at the Youth and Corfiiinunity Center Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. You will enjoy every minute of the displays and entertainment. Almost every Decat.ur store has a display and thousands, of dollars in merchandise win be given away free. Visit every display stand and enjoy every minute of the big spring event. You not only will get valuable sug- • money saving ideas, yisit the De--catur Merchants showcase and plan to buy your needs in Decatur where yob always get more for your shopping dollars.

WHAT IS HArrENING Second Lieutenant Emil Schwabacker was on edge. He'd had a year ot inaction with the Cavalry at Fort Laramie, Wyoming. A year of waiting, a year of one dreary patrol after another. He felt pent up under the infallibly exacting, coldly reserved. First Lieutenant Temple Jocelyn. Even the thought of his fiancee. Hen- . rletta. was not consoling, for she was back in Vermont, a painful memory. But this patrol upon which he rode promised to be different. A company of infantry had been sent to reinforce Fort Laramie. Jocelyn’s troop had been ordered to rendezvous with the company at Ryndlee's ranch. Jocelyn was keeping his counsel, as usual, but action with the hostiles appeared likely at last. When signs that an Indian war party was near them became markedly cohspTcudus. Emil suspected that the well defined trail Was a trick. CHAPTER 3 PRST Lieutenant Jocelyn was rolled in his tarp and blanket. Schwabacker copied him, as he did in everything else, and lay there listening to the rain drum against his oilskins. He slept in fragments, waking often and at any slight sound. Finally he heard Jocelyn stir, and through a crack around the bottom of the tarp he saw a match flare as Jocelyn looked at his watch. By the time Schwabacker got to his feet and rolled his blankets, Sergeant Finnegan had a crew gathering brush. The temperature had dropped and thp rain carried a bone-numbing chill that made troopers flail their arms trying to induce circulation. Lieutenant Jocelyn was standing with his shoulders rounded in discomfort When Schwabacker joined him. This was a surprise, for Jocelyn was a man who showed nothing. Finnegan soon was coming in with the brush detail. He had searched out the dead stuff, which was relatively dry. The piles grew as the two officers watched. Schwabacker said, “That won’t be much, sir.” "If it gives us an hour I’ll be grateful,” Jocelyn said. He motioned for Finnegan to come up. “Get the troop away from the area before mounting, Sean. Mr. Schwabacker and I will light the fires.” “Yes, sor,” Finnegan said and began to form the troop. “Still looking for action, Mr. Schwabacker?" "Yes, sir. The sooner the. better, sir.” \ “I think I can promise you that,” Jocelyn said. When Finnegan had the troop clear, Jocelyn and Schwabacker went around and Ignited the four brush piles. As soon as the flare mounted they darted out of the circle of light and mounted their horses. There were no more questions as Jocelyn led them east by southeast Around three in the morning—Schwabacker had difficulty 1 judging the time accurately—the rain slacked off a bit and the men rolled their ponchos. At five, Jocelyn halted the troop and had them Unbit for grazing. To Schx wabackcr he said, “We’ll walk the., rest of the way. I want every man alert.” ■ ■ Dawn rinsed away the night 1 shortly after six, and near seven Schwabacker’s alert ears picked up the muted pop of gunfire. A ‘- •' glance at Jocelyn assured him G ttawiaM. w. hr Kmm. J

that he had heard it too. As a man, the troop lifted heads and eyes became widely alert. Jocelyn spoke softly. “Mr. Schwabacker, it occurs to me <hat your suspicion of a trick is well founded. I’m going to mount the troop now and go into Ryndlee's at a gallop and under the horn. Pistol and sabers, Mr. Schwabacker. That’s what you’ve been wanting; that's what you’ll get. You'll command the second section and I want strict attention placed on the back trail. At the first -sound of hostile pursuit, break away’ with twelve men and fight a diversionary action.” “Yes, sir!” “Curb your eagerness, Mr. Schwabacker. Please remember . <-» not a on, the Plain along the Hudson. They watched our camp last night, the sly devils, but I think our squad fires lured them into believing that we remained an hour longer than we did.” He arched his back to relieve a stiffened muscle. “They intended to squeeze us, Mr. Schwabacker, and I intend to beat them at their own game.” A nod to Finnegan placed every man by his horse, ready to mount Jocelyn put his foot in the stirrup. “I’m going straight through to Ryndlee's; no doubt the station is pinned down. As soon as my section breaks through. I’ll sound 'recall’ Leave the holding action and come in at a gallop. We’ll lay |down a covering fire with the carbines.” “Very good, sir.” Jocelyn stripped off his gauntlets and offered his hand, the first direct overture of friendliness he had ever presented to Emil Schwabacker. In the distance a buffalo Sharps boomed and this was answered by a rattle of trade muskets. “The criterion of the cavalry is the charge, Mr. Schwabacker.” He stepped into the saddle as another fusillade rattled, in the distance. Jocelyn smiled as he added, “No doubt there will be * letter waiting from your fiancee, Mr. Schwabacker. Having once had a lady, I might urge you to discharge your duties most expediently, read her.letter, then marry the girl and bring her to your post Don’t wait, Mr. Schwabacker. That's been fatal to many a man.” . “Sir, I don’t under . . ." But Jocelyn had already turned to the young bugler, who sat his horse with the horn bell resting on his thigh. Finnegan had the troop mounted and waiting—-forty-three hard-pratted regulars, fifty-cents-a-day dog-face soldiers who listened to the struggle at Ryndlee’s and knew what it meant. Jocelyn spoke to the bugler. “Sound the ’charge' and put some spit into it. Mr. Schwabacker, strip romance from your mind and take command of your sectinn, please.” Schwabacker wheeled, bawling an order to Corporal Linahan, then the bugler split the , vast silence with piercing notes and the command bolted into action. The road ranch was visible against the gray distance, a cluster of low sod buildings backed &«©nnved py penaiMion of Rudoa

-— Howard MauUer and Gerhard Reinking, who tied in race for nomination as trustee of Union township, decide to ask for recount Two Youths Fined On Traffic Counts Two Ohio youths were arrested in Decatur Friday by the city police for playing a game of follow the leader. Both were charged with reckjess driving, and appeared in justice of the peace court with their fathers Saturday to hear the charge against them and to pay their fines. The two arrested were, Ronald Dean Medaugh, 17, Willshire, 0., and George W. Baker, 16, Ohio City. O. Both youths paid ( fines of $16.75.

against the river. A mile separated them, yet every man saw the high shapes of the ambulance and the stage, the three abandoned escort wagons standing by the corral, and knew what that meant. Circling Ryndlee’s, painted warriors strutted back and forth, occasionally shooting into the besieged buildings. The column went in bent over the horses’ necks, sabers and pistols drawn. Then Schwabacker saw the enemy coming up from the rear and suddenly wheeled to the right, turning about with his detail. Pistols cracked like brush fire and jjowder smoke was a drifting hafce. Jocelyn pulled away, racing on with his men, while Schwabacker drove through in a plunging , wedge, breaking the Cheyennes into milling segments. He led a daring charge that shocked the hostiles into momentary helplessness. This was not the way of the “long knives,” to press an attack. Confusion came into their ranks and Schwabacker took advantage of it, going after them stirrup to stirrup, sabers whipping in the gray dawn light Close in now. Jocelyn could see clearly the hostiles that ringed Ryndlee’s. There was no accurate way of judging the exact number: over fifty, he guessed. The bugler’s blast had warned them and they wheeled to fight off Jocelyn’s force. Trade muskets boomed, leaving puffs of dull smoke, suspended for a moment before drifting with the wind. The force closed to thirty yards, the new call of “commence firing” spilling from the bugle’s belt Jocelyn rode with dropped reins, saber poised, his engraved pistol recoiling against his palm. Powder smoke wafted back, rankly bitter, then the command was against the enemy, sabers drawn and drinking, pushing through, crushing the warriors who tried to block them. From Ryndlee's soddy a cheer floated up and the buffalo gun belched flame and smoke. Then they were in Ryndlee’s yard, Jocelyn milling his troopers while the hostiles gathered themselves for a furious attack. “Dismount!” he shouted. “First squad!—Fire by volley! FIRE!” This was his great fist, the heavy-caliber carbine, and he Had been saving 4t for such a moment Sergeant Finnegan’s men were well trained, and while the hostiles poised for the thrust the fire caught them, opening great gaps in the first ranks. At Jocelyn's command, the bugler blew "recall” for Schwabacker’s benefit Troopers rammed paper cartridges down the bores, seated lead bullets with wiping sticks, then capped their pieces while the second squad ripped into the Indians With Volley fire. A mite out on the flats, Second Lieutenant Emil Schwabacker was in the midst of a hot fight When the bugle’s clarion call ripped through the sounds of dying. he wheeled his section r gathered his wounded and began to race through, driving straight for the hfstilcs bunching, again to storm yard.
