Thursday night will be the opening parade of the Monroe days festival in the town of Monroe. A large parade through the main section of town will start at 7 p.m. Thursday. Plenty of fun is promised for all who attend the threeday affair, which closes late Saturday night. ——o o Indiana university's department of vocational education, working through the Decatur public school system, is hoping to conduct a three-day program in retail ad-’ vertising information to help advertisers meet the changing conditions in business. The course will be quite valuable to those who attend, and will include information on all medias of advertising, and for those with a small budget and a larget budget. The Decatur Chamber of Commerce is one of the main sponsors of the program. o oI—- «■ The Committee for Economic Development (CED>, comprised of many heads of big businesses, has issued six statements of problems, all calling for wider participation by businessmen and private citizens in economic development on the state and local level. The need for a broad, organized body for research, and a tested package of plans to guide local leaders seeking development. CED seems to be coming ap with some answers, but full cooperation will be needed to earry them through. o o It is certainly interesting to read the arguments some people give that taxes should be cut for big business and the rich so that investments can provide more jobs for workers. Why, industry is only working at a small fraction of capacity now—why should capacity be increased? No, the answer is in more money to the tremendous numbers of people who make less than SIO,OOO a year. This is the group that needs, the group that buys, the large bulk of all consumer goods. This is the group that needs a tax cut. That would really help business.

It seems a shame that only politics can move the Republicans to oust a dishonest advisor from the President’s clique. The rightness or wrongness of his actions seems to make little difference to them. They are clamoring for Adams' hide because he is costing them votes, not because he was wrong in what he did. He was just as wrong in what he did six months ago when the same Republicans were defending him. —-o——o All three railroads through the city of Decatur have been notified by the city attorney on the condition of their crossings, and the fact that children are now using the crossings regularly, and extra care is needed. The Pennsylvania railroad has been notified particularly concerning the very dangerous Washington street crossing near the northwest school that they must have a man there when the trains are using the crossing to warn the children. Mayor Cole and the city council have been very active in trying to keep the railroads alert to their responsibilities at this crossing. o o Recent suggestions by some educators that drivers training classes are a “frill" and should be dropped have not been taken seriously by very many American educators. Science will do us little good if our scientists do not know the proper way to drive, and practice it. Os course Russia doesn’t have driver’s training. Since they do not allow private ownership of automobiles, and provide trained chauffeurs for all government vehicles, which include all autos in Russia, there would be no need for driver’s graining there. Let’s keep our suggestions for American education realistic, and fitting the American picture, not an imagined dream world. Yes, we have problems in schools here that will require thought, study, planning, and action. But sound thought and study by those who know education best is necessary before the plan and action stage.

Improved Variety Os Soybean Is Released Will Be Available To Farmers In 1960 LAFAYETTE—An improved variety of soybean—Lindarin — best adapted to the northern fourth of Indiana was released today by Purdue University. It will be available to farmers in 1960. Lindarin was developed cooperatively by north central region agricultural experiment stations and the U.S.D.A. regional soybean laboratory. A. H. Probst, Purdue research agronomist, and Kirk L. Athow, Purdue plant pathologist, describe the new variety as “high yielding, high in oil content, lodging resistant and early maturing." “ ... the variety promises to be the best yet . wth of a line drawn across Ijiniana through Remington and Bluffton. It will be of importance also in the north central area where an early maturing, erect growing variety is sometimes required for delayed planting in the latter part of June or where later maturing varieties do not permit timely seeding of wheat," they said. Lindarin. which derives its name from its parents, Mandarin and Lincoln, matures about two days earlier than Harosoy and four days earlier than Hawkeye. It is higher in oil content than either of these varieties. In yielding ability, Lindarin has averaged about three percent higher than Harosoy and eight percent higher than Hawkeye in its area of best adaption, the scientists reported. It averaged three days later in maturity and 23 percent higher in yield than Blackhawk, which is recommended only for marshland and muck soils in northern Indiana. Lindarin is more lodging resistant, . produces better quality seed and is somewhat less susceptible to Phytophahora root rot than Harosoy. It is resistant to downy mildew and frogeye leaf spot and has a low susceptibility to stem canker. Work on the new variety begin in 1945. Early generation selection and testing were done at Purdue. Regional tests began four years ago. The Lindarin plants are medium in height, somewhat shorter than Harosoy or Hawkeye. The leaves are somewhat different from those of most varieties in that they have a marked waviness on the

CHAPTER 29 a SLADE CONSIDINE flattened c his body behind the tree and i heard a bullet thud into the trunk, f Tony Miller and Wynn Thoma- i son were running toward him again. Slade raised his pistol and c this time took time to draw a s bead. It was Tony he aimed at t and. apparently Tony he hit, for i the man whirled, stumbled and i started running back toward the < big jut of rock at the mouth t>f 1 the valley. 1 For another half-dozen jumps 1 Wynn kept coming, and the thick ' growth ot aspen made his body a difficult target. Then a bullet | through a dead, hollow aspen trunk tn front of him suddenly sprinkled a shower of rats’ nest dust in his face. He jerked to a halt, whirled and followed Tony on a crouching, zigzagging run. Slade tossed another two shots after him. One bullet tilted Wynn’s hat The other must have clipped some side meat, for he staggered, and when he ran again Slade saw that he was limping. But now Tony had reached the shelter of the big rock where apparently he had left a rifle, for a bullet ploughed clear through the aspen behind which Slade was trying to make himself thin. It was inches too high, but Slade realized that against a .30-30 he would have to seek thicker shelter. Cautiously he twisted his head around and eyed the spruce he had first marked as a refuge. Sturdy and wide-trunked it stood, not more than fifteen yards away. The aspen growth was thinner that way. For a few feet he would have to run in the open. He took a long breath, hunched his shoulders forward a little and ran zigzagging for the spruce. The next instant a veritable hail of shooting began. He knew a moment of grim hope that he was going to reach the spruce unscathed. The next Instant a searing, tearing rip along his side lurched him sideways, then as he somehow regained his balance a shocking impact upon his right heel tripped him. He felt himself falling, saw that the spruce was only a few feet away, and somehow gathered strength to throw his tottering body past it as if making a flying tackle. Panting, he pulled himself up behind the tree. His right leg was hard to move. It had a numbed, tingly feeling, but he saw that all that had happened was that a bullet had knocked off his boot • heel. , i The wound In his side was real ' enough. Moving and even breathing was torture, His shirt was

outer edges. About 106 acres of Lindarin were planted on the agricultural alumni seed improvement association farm at Romney, south of Lafayette, this year. The seed will be available to qualified certified seed growers in 1959 for further multiplication. Lindarin is the 20th in a series of improved soybean varieties deI veloped cooperatively by the U. S. s department of agriculture and state agricultural experiment stations. o— o Household Scrapbook | By ROBERTA LEE | o — Tatting If tatting is very soiled it. is often difficult to return it to a good clears color without Injuring it.

already soaked with blood, and he o could feel its sticky warmth ooz- t Ing down his leg. But when his ii fingers probed it, he decided that ti it was no more than flesh deep. Then his probing fingers dis- f covered something else that for s a moment seemed to stop his very heartbeats. The rifle bullet that 1 had creased his side had also ripped the bottom of the pocket s of his jacket. The spare shells he had carelessly dropped in there i this morning without taking time < to load his belt were gone! And < only one shell was left in his gun! t Hopefully he scanned the ground near the base of the tree. | A bullet sang past close to his head, and he jerked back. He stood up and twisted his head to peer at the gap. The sudden movement turned everything black before his eyes and he had to catch hold of the tree to keep from falling. He felt a fresh spurt of sticky warmth ooze down his hip. and he knew a moment of sheer, instinctive panic. It was funny what the loss of a little blood did for a man. He couldn’t afford to faint now. If he did he would never wake up. He took off his jacket, rolled It, and tied It tightly around his , waist with the sleeves, grinning a little at how Doc Evans in , Barrancas would snort at such an . unsanitary bandage. The moment of faintness had awakened him to a keener sense 1 of danger. He couldn’t stay put , here and wait for night to even \ the odds between him and the other two. He would have to do ’ something quick. J His eyes, narrowed as he stud- , led the valley. Here on this side the aspen fringe was deeper. Perj haps if ne backed into it, keeping j the spruce between him and the gap, then he could circle the vega j to the house. Cautiously he began backing 2 away from the spruce. j Once in the thickness of the trees, he quickened his stride. The dizziness in his head was I growing worse now, and he had . to fight it with every ounce of his will. j Sporadic firing from the gap had . started again, but it still seemed y to be directed toward the big v spruce. 3 Reeling like a drunken man, . Slade crossed the open, apparently unseen. The back window of the cabin was open. He pulled a himself over the sill and rolled inl, side. For a moment he lay on pie t floor fighting desperately at the t weakness that threatened his t chance for life. Then he got to his hands and Knees. J He grawled over to the dark - corner by the door and pulled s himself to his feet. On the back

of a nearby chair was a grimy towel. He folded it, and tucked it inside the tight leather roll around his waist. He sank Into a chair and fought down the desire to go to sleep. The shooting from the gap kept up intermittently. Wynn and Tony seemed to have plenty of shells with them. Then, although he thought he was feeling better, he must have dozed or fainted sitting in the chair with his head against the wall. " .' When he came to, a half-hour later, dusk was already beginning to grey the shadows of the timber that fringed the meadow. Slade stared around him blankly, then as memory came rushing back, felt a momentary panic as he realized that the guns at the gap were finally stilled. He peered through the window but hb could no longer see Tony and Wynn. Cursing at his carelessness and his weakness —for going to sleep —he got up and crossed the room, then suddenly flattened against the wall beside the window, his gun ready in his hand. 1 Tony and Wynn, creeping * across the open not six feet from : the cabin, must have seen him 1 move, for a bullet came whistling 1 in and buried itself in the wall ! beyond. , The two men jumped the re- [ maining distance to the cabin, I almost as if they had been fired , from a gun themselves. Wynn’s ' head came through the window first Doubtful of his strength, Slade raised the gun barrel and 5 brought it down with everything he had. Wynn tumbled into the , room and fell in an unconscious e heap at his feet. i Outside there was dead silence, as if Tony were debating with j himself what to do. Then the next Instant the front e door crashed open and the two u strange punchers Slade had seen s with Tony in the saloon the day d before bulged in. f Slade's one remaining bullet caught one of them in midriff d and he toppled without a sound, d Then as Slade whirled at a sound g behind him, Tony, lunging through the window, clubbed him i, on the shoulder with his rifle .- barrel. Slade staggered, raised his f own gun, but not in time to parry d the next blow that caught him - on the head. His knees buckled e and he went down, e s If Slade knew what Tony has j in store tor him, he might be thankful for his state of unc consciousness.

Resist Pressure Os Old Age Medicine Medical Science Urged To Resist ' By DELOS SMITH UP! Science Editor NEW YORK (UP!) — A professor of medicine urges all-out resistance by medical science to public pressure for a special “compartment’ of old age medicine. This pressure is “a very undesirable if not a dangerous trend," said Dr. Austin B. Chinn of Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio, at a recent meeting of the Interstate Postgraduate Medical Association. If unchecked it will lead to “the separation of medical care of the elderly patient into a separate compartment of medicine, and, in turn, specialization. Vitally Necessary Care “I believe that of all the many aspects of health care which should be managed by the family's general physician, none is more vitally necessary than the care of the older person." Chinn touched on a sore point inside medical science and also the general public. It is a simple fact that the proportion of elderly people in the total population is increasing steadily. This has led to a mushrooming of problems and many of them are not strictly medical. Yet the infant medical specialty of old-age medicine — “geriatrics”—is struggling to establish itself firmly. Needless to say, other respected medical authority believes there is a place for such a specialty. Chinn took issue by denying that the “so-called geriatrician” has as much 1 reason for being as the pediatrician. Diseases Peculiar To Children “In the case of infants and children there are many techniques and a few diseases which are peculiar to children and which may require specialized knowledge and training.” he said. “On the other hand, thre are no known techniques or diseases which are peculiar to old people. “If the word geriatrics is necessary in our language, let us speak of geriatric medicine, but do not let us be led into the notion that study of illnesses jn the elderly person should in any way be separated from the great common body of knowledge of general medicine of which it is so important a part.” Snake Silencer AUBURN, N. Y. — (UPI) — The Cayuga County Sheriff’s Department lost its “voice” for five hours one night when a six foot snake short-circuited the county’s radio transmitter. The roasted reptile was removed by a repairman. Small Change PLANVILLE, Conn. — <UPI) — A boy handed a dime to Norton Park concessionaire Barnett Sneideman, ordered a seven-cent ice cream cone and said, “I'll take my change in pennies please."

Atom Power Plan! Is More Efficient U. S. Plant Exceeds Britain And Russia GENEVA (UPI) — Scientific papers presented to the atoms-for-peace conference showed today the atomic power plant at Shippingport, Pa., is operating with far greatar efficiency that larger plants in Britain and the Soviet Union. Discussions have disclosed Britain has been having trouble with fuel elements in its first reactors at Calder Hall. Although they were designed to last for 10,000 to 15,000 “megawatt days,” some of the British fuel elements had to be removed for examination and reconditioning after only 1,300 “megawatt days." (A megawatt day is the period of time needed to produce one million watts of electric power.

The period of time may vary.) By contrast, the United States is getting 25.000 to 30,000 “megawatt days” from fuel elements at Shippingport. It expects to get 40,000 "megawatt days" from more concentrated fuels in the Army’s package power reactor at Fort Belvoir, Va. No specific details on Russian performance, were available. But Soviet delegate S. M. Feinberg said the designs for the reactors at the power station in Siberia call for an efficiency only “a little higher than Calder Hall.” U. S. sicentists said the fact American reactors used “enriched" instead of natural uran iu m fuel contributed to greater efficiency. Bui they said better designing of reactors also played a part in achieving superior performance. Thera has been little change during the past few years in the length of time the average American can be expected to live at the time he is born. The figure was 69.6 yedrs in 1956, the same at it was in 1954.
