Masons from all parts of Indiana will visit the Indiana Masonic Home at Franklin on September 14, the annual visitation day. It is the 11th consecutive year Indiana Masons and Eastern Star members have attended this gigantic get together. -— o - P. Akers, a veteran newspaperman with 35 years experience, and now executive editor of the Chicago Sun-Times, addressed the 17th annual school of the prophets at Greencastle Monday. Several from Decatur are attending the Methodist conference now underway at DePauw. o o One of the great corporations doing something about aid to privately supported liberal arts colleges and universities is the Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. A total of $125,000 will go to 125 colleges, including Butler. DePauw, Earlham, Notre Dame, and Wabash in Indiana. o o A colorful era in the history of the U. S. Senate has come to an end. The era is over because our junior senator, Wild Bill Jenner, has retired from the U. S. Senate, Newspapers all over the country have editorialized. Comments have ranged from the Chicago Tribune’s “sad day for the Senate’’ to the Louisville CourierJournal’s “Sigh of relief.” But we have no “sigh of relief” in Indiana. Not because, thank goodness, Wild Bill is no longer loose destroying our state’s reputation, but because Wild Bill has returned to campaign for governorship, and will again be meddling in state politics, running things. At least he was honest enough to resign from his important job before running, which is more than can be said for his stooge, “HighTax Harold”, the present governor and senate candidate. Republicans are trying to gloss over Handley and Jenner, the real bosses of Indiana Republicanism, and are trying to push the poor lieutenant governor ihto the fore. This will be difficult, since no one even knows his name.

“7 Since 1913 the value of the American dollar has been cut to one-third of its former purchasing power, but Americans now receive six times as many dollars for all types of work. The real income of most Americans has doubled since 1913. Only the American farmer, with his devotion to the so-called “free” market, has failed to keep up with the rest. His parity or real purchasing power, has dropped, and he remains the last segment of the American population who refuses help. o o Sen. John Kennedy, of Mass., has been highly praised, and rightly so, for his stand concerning the Eisenhower study on plans to surrender the United States to Soviet Russia. Attacking the base of the problem, the administration’s failure to prepare I this country for nuclear war, so that it will be able to defend itself in the 1960-64 period, he dealt strictly with the facts. Kennedy called, not for disgust with the President, but for Americans to take over the neglected leadership in an effort to overcome the approaching Russian danger. Sen. Kennedy is one of the outstanding leaders of our time. o o The, final session, excepting an emergency, of the 85th Congress, second session, has drawn to a close. A total of 18,110 pages of congressional proceedings have been published. From this conglomeration of ideas has come 444 new bills of a public nature, and 284 private bills. Actually more than- 1300 measures were passed, including resolutions. A total 6,591 measures were introduced. President Eisenhower vetoed 14 of the measures passed, and the senate voted to override one of them, the house, none, so none were reversed. Therefore, the Congress can certainly be called a Republican one, despite the apparent Democrat majority. Most Southern Democrats vote with the Republicans on measures other than organization of the Abuse or Senate.

CHAPTER 27 ~~ SOMEHOW, Martha Kilgore was not much surprised at hearing her grandmother state so positively that Jim Ned Wheeler had been murdered. Tlie little old lady stooped and lifted Jim Ned’s right foot, the one with the clean, unsmeared boot on it. As she lifted, with •carcely any pull at all, the boot came off, “See that?” Rachel Kilgore said quietly. “Jim Ned always • bought his boots way too big. We used to tease him about it—he was always having blisters on his heels —but he said wearing a pair of loose-fitting boots saved his life one time and maybe they would again. When he was just a kid he swiped his older brother's new boots one day and went for a ride. The horse threw him, his boot hung in the stirrup and he would halve been dragged to death if his foot hadn't come out of the boot so easy.” “Mrs. Kilgore,” Beulah Denhart's voice was sharp, “you don't think Slade Considine did this, do y.ou?" Rachel Kilgore turned to her. “No,” she said quietly. “1 know who did it—and if I hadn’t been such a stubborn old fool it need not have happened. I somehow just couldn’t believe Wynn Thomason was crooked. . His father was a fine man— a good and gentle man. But Wynn—l should have put my foot on his neck a long time ago!” Martha spoke with quiet conviction: ’“Granny, 1 think Slade knew Jim Ned had been murdered. 1 think he has gone back up to Escabrosa Canyon.” She heard Beulah penhart catch her breath sharply. "We will saddle fresh horses and go for help. Marttia. If Wynn has been hiding something crooked up in the Valle Medio, he will have been expecting Slade to ride up there some day. He will be waiting for him.” “I’m going up Escabrosa Canyon," Martha said quietly. “I may be in time to help. Wynn won't hurt me— and I don’t think he’ll hurt anyone else if I am there to see it.” Her grandmother half raised a hand in protest, her lips opened to speak, then she seemed to see the desperate urgency in the girl’s face and slowly nodded her head. “Go ahead,” she said quietly. “It’s what I would have done when I was younger. But—be careful, Martha! You are all the f&mily I have left!” The girl stooped and kissed her forehead. "As careful as I can be, Granny* • • • Wynn Thomason slid three cards off the deck and laid them

on the table. He frowned down [ at the cards, but his mind was . not on the game of solitaire. He reached for the bottle at his elbow and took a generous swallow straight. Wynn had been hitting the bottle particularly hard since his talk with Captain Catlin' yesterday afternoon. As he riffled through the remaining cards he swore at himself for being such a weak fool as to listen to Tony Miller’s sly suggestions. Tony had shrewdly played on the weakest spot in his character—his bitter, driving ambition. At Tony’s insistence he had turned thief. At Tony’s bidding he would become a murderer —or at least a murderers accomplice—in a few days. His heart quailed at the thought of his future. Bound to a ruthless, treacherous ally by ties even stronger than those of blood—ties of shared wrongdoing —he realized that he. would never know peace again as long as Tony Miller lived.*Tony had the whiphand these days, and he was cutting Wynn’s soul raw with it. He reached for the bottle again, then stopped. There was still a way out of it if he had the nerve to take it. He could go to old Rachel Kilgore and confess everything, He knew that her acid tongue concealed a sympathetic and generous nature. For the sake of his dead father neither she nor Nick Considine would prosecute if he paid them back everything he had taken from them. But never again would he have their respect. In order to endure living he would have to sell his holdings tn the Chupaderos and start over again some place else. For minutes Wynn played with the idea. In the corral back of the cabin a dozen weaning calves bawled querulously. Wynn pushed back his chair and got unsteadily to his feet. Although the door of the little cabin in the Valle Medio was open and a cool breeze blowing through, he felt hot And smothery. He eyed the saddled horse tied to the hitch rack almost longingly. Suddenly from down the canyon there came to his ears the faint sound of a distant shot. He stood for minutes listening for a repetition of the sound, while the blood around his heart seemed to congeal into ice. He had little doubt what that sound had meant, and in away he whs even glad to hear it, for now decision was out of his hands. From here on there was no turning back, even if he wanted to. For days he had been waiting for Slade Considine to nde up into the Valle Medio. He and Tony had alreadylaid their plans' as to what they would do when that day came.

O . O Modern Etiquette | By ROBERTA LEE o Q. My husband’s brother died recently and many of his friends sent sympathy cards addressed to my husband alone. Should not these cards have been addressed to both of us? A. No: the cards were correctly addressed to your husband alone. It was HIS brother who passed on. Q. Is it impolite for a hostess to call attention to the fact that one of her guests hasn’t eaten much? A. The hostess should not make i mention of this, unless her guest ; has refused everything. Then she 1 might ask, “Is there something i I can get you to eat?’’ Q. How many salt and pepper | shakers are proper for the dinner ■ table? A. The most convenient placement is a pair at every other j plate. | o—— — —— — o 20 Years Ago Today O ■ —O t Sept. 4, 1938 was Sunday and no | paper was published.

Now It had come. Tony had gone back down the canyon after the branding iron they had dropped from their pack the day before. Undoubtedly he had met Slade and killed him. Wynn swung up into his saddle and rode toward the canyon. It was a shock to him when he came upon Tony putting the finishing touches on what was to seem an accidental death and saw the victim was not Slade -Considine. He pulled up his horse and stared with a slowly whitening face. Slade Considine he had always envied—and therefore hated. But he had liked and respected Jim Ned Wheeler as much as he could ever like anyone. He ran his tongue over his dry lips. "For Pete’s sake, Tony, did you have to-do that?" Tony looked at him coolly. He dragged the body a few feet farther to a wide, rocky strip of trail where no tracks would show, then turned his horse, leaned lbw in the saddle and loosened the rope around the booted ankle. With complete callousness for the grisly job he had just done, he carefully recoiled his lasso rope and tied it on his saddle. Then he reined his horse over beside Wynn. "Look him over,” he said coolly, “and see if 1 missed anything. I want this to took good.” “Look oood'.'' Wynn said bitterly. "Did you have to do it, Tony?” Tony shrugged. “The old buzzard was headed for the Valle. Come on. we'd better beat it. The girl was with him a while ago. She may have heard that shot and come snooping back.” ■Wynn flinched. “Martha?” "Sure. What other dame would be riding with him?” “You didn’t shoot him ? If you did—" Tony gave him a contemptuous look. “What kind of a fool do you take me for? Os course I didn't. I saw him coming, climbed a tree, and dropped a rope over his neck.” He turned suddenly in the saddle, shoving out his left arm, and Wynn saw that his hand was coveted with blood and that one finger was missing. “The old booger was greased lightning with a gun. He winged me before 1 could rope him.”’’ » . Tony started to rein his horse up the trail, then stopped. He turned in the saddle and looked at W'ynn. "I wonder if I ought to go after that girl,” he said thoughtfully. As the story continues tomorrow, the sixgun spits again, and Slade's hat jumps forward and settles "down over his eyes as if a hand had tilted it -there.**

Epidemic Os Tumors Fascinates Experts Scientists Study Colony Os Monkeys By DELOS SMITH EPI Science Editor NEW YORK (UPD— Scientific proponents of the theory that viruses are the root causes of cancer are fascinated by an epidemic of tumors among the colony of rhesus monkeys. Viruses caused it and, luckily for the advancement of man’s knowledge, it happened right under the noses of scientists, since the animals were being kept for scientific uses. There were 35 rhesus monkeys in four cages which were close enough together for any monkey in one cage to stick an arm or a leg through the bars and touch any monkey in the next cage. The first tumor was on the right eyebrow of a male monkey. A week later a tumor began growing on the hose of a female in the next cage. Within six months 20 of the 35 had tumors, and all tumors were on the face or limbs. Monkeys Os Both Sexes The monkeys were of all ages . and of both sexes. As the epidem- < ic got going, monkeys with tumors were isolated from monkeys tumor-free at the time. This probably slowed and then stopped the I epidemic before all 35 were affected. The reasons for scientific fasci- ' nation are several. The causative viruses sprang up spontaneously: they got around from animal to I animal by ordinary means, that I is, by contact; the viruses were spectacularly specific, producing the same kind of tumor originat- ’ ing just under the skin and tn the same places on all animals. These I circumstances make the occurrence unique. They also mean science is likely t»*iearn some really ! important things from it. The monkey colony was that of I the West African Council for Med- . I ical Research at Lagos, Nigeria, W. G. C. Bearcroft and Margaret who made the pre-1 ’ Timinary scientific observations, j reported to the international tech- : nical journal. Nature, that the tumorous growths were self-limited. They reached a maximum size within a few weeks, then stopped enlarging and later sloughed off. J There were no monkey fatalities , from tumors. Epidmic Spreads At first, there was never more than one tumor on any one animal. But as the epidemic spread, affected animals had a number of tumors which arose along the course of lymphatic vessels draining the body area where the first! tumor appeared. But there were no internal tumors — no internal ■ “metastases,” to use the technical : term. Yt there was an evident beginning of “spread” through the lymph vessels — the route by which many human cancers are “spread” and thus made inevitably fatal — before something happened and stopped it. Microscopic examination of monkey tissues re- I vealed tumor cells in lymph nodes removed from the sites of the tumors.' All this is what science calls “a preliminary report.” At this stage j the scientists disavowed "any im- i plication that the growths de-| scribed are true neoplasms” or j cancers. Their resemblances to | “true” cancers were so close as ■ to make that question academic, however. Over 2,500 Dally Democrats are; sold and delivered in Decatur: each day. J
