Business is looking up in Decatur this week, with the General Electric calling back some of its employes laid off a few weeks ago. A business boom at this' time of the year is Somewhat unusual for Decatur’s largest employer. It is more common to experience a layoff about this time. Business in general has shown an Upturn since the first of September in Decatur. 0 0— The Prohibition party made a strong comeback in Indiana this year as many voters, repelled by both parties, cast their ballot for the dromedary camel. More than 200 persons voted that ticket in Adams county, probably 20,000 in all of Indiana. Diis compares with only 6,648 votes in 1956. If a party fails <to get one-half of one per cent of the vote cast for secretary of state, then that party must file a petition with thousands of signatures on it, as the Prohibition party had to do this year. In 1960, however, they will be able to nominate by convention again. o o Three new projects will be added to 4-H club activities on a state basis this next year. One of jhem, the horse and pony project, was used in Adams county this past year. Two other new ones are the automotive project

and the wood working project. Under consideration, and expected to be adopted within three years are the following projects: dog husbandry, child care, house plants, flowers, photography, and home mechanics, a do-it-yourself type project. Seven familiar projects will be revised to meet current standards: foods 111, clothing 111, home improvement, electricity, sheep, swine and soil conservation. The 4-H movement is adjusting to fit current needs, a very healthy sign in this com-munity-sponsored activity. I o o It is interesting to note that Nelson Rockefeller’s salary as governor of New York, $50,000 a year, Will be less than his weekly income. And he gives away $20,000 a week to charity. Rockefeller is now vacationing on his 860 acre Venezuelan farm in that South American country; he also has a summer “cottage" at Bar Harbor, Maine, a 3.000 acre ancestral estate near Tarrytown, N. Y., and a 32-room apartment overlooking Central Park in New York City. As a candidate for president in 1960, common, ordinary people may wonder just how well such a fabulously rich man would understand ordinary life problems, and sympathize with the average man.

CHAPTER 36 I' "KTOW that the war is over, 1 *: * ’Macklyn, what are you going ‘ to do?" Colin Campbell asked his ’ brother. 1 "First tackle the brush with ’ a brush hook. Then perhaps I’ll be able to borrow a team of mules from Ned Hale and help with the plowing. Any spare time I have I can very profitably spend on the house and outbuildings. Macklyn’s wife, Betsie, said, “Those are our mules Ned’s using, dear. When I knew the Yankees were coming, I hid them in a swamp. There is a second team in the paddock.” "My lovely Rebel!” Macklyn’s eyes glowed with warmth. “That’s one less bridge to cross.” “Would you like me to send Zack to help?” Colin asked. “I can spare him at least part time and I know he'll be glad to come.” “If you can do without him sometime it would be a wonderful help, Colin. Wait and see. It will take time, but we’ll rebuild Quail Wings." “I know you will,” Colin said fervently. Four years ago, the thought of Macklyn’s doing menial labor would have been beyond the farthest reach of the imagination. But Colin knew now that the ingenuity, perseverance and vision that had built Quail Wings originally would rebuild it. "And you?” Macklyn teased smilingly. “I guess I can cut brush as well as the next lawyer,” Colin answered. . • • • As Colin approached his own home, he saw that most of his horses were gone. But Robin snorted -In his paddock and a long-legged colt ran beside Sue. Zack had managed to get or keep a team of mules and was cultivating with them. Watt Sackett tried to sound casual and succeeded only in emphasizing the excitement bubbling within him. “I’ll ja’nt down an’ see Hannah, Jedge.” "I’ll be goin’ too," Tracey Hamlin said. “But first I got somethin’ for ya’, Jedge.” -..■mfr?-’ Colin 'ooked puzzled. "Yeah.” For a moment Tracey did not speak, and when he did his words were slow and measured. "You knowed we spent a day or so in that Yank prison camp with Ling 'fore we got away. He knowed we was goin’ and he knowed he couldn' make it hisself.” “What are you driving at, Tracey?” "He knowed he’d mos’ likely be shot, but he fooled us into thinking he'd be all right till we i come back fer him.” Tracey stopped and Colin waited for him to continue. "He tol’ me, ’When they's no more chanst of the Jedge getlin' kilt.' Ling says,

'give him this, Tracey. 1 tried my bounden best to tell him an* couldn't. But I know how things was, tell him. When the Jedge gits this, he’ll know what I tried to tell him. He’ll know, too, what I mean fer him to do.’ ” Tracey dropped a small parcel wrapped in cloth into £qlin’s hand and turned to stride swiftly away. Colin removed the wrapping and stared in wonder. Inside was Ling Stewart’s weddirig ring. He raised his head and blinked away tears that he could not keep from his eyes. Suddenly he knew what Ling had wanted to tell him and had not been able to say. "I know how things was,” he had told Tracey. Colin felt a rising wonder. What he had considered his closely guarded secret was no secret at all. Ling had known Colin was in love with Ann. Colin almost hoard him say, “If I get kilt in this here war, Jedge, it wouldn’t be mortal bad a’tall if I knowed you'd take her. She needs somebody.” With this ring, Ling had given Ann into Colin’s keeping, as though she were a horse or mule to be offered away! But how very like Ling! Colin slipped the ring into his pocket and was only vaguely aware, as he neared his house, that Campbell Hill had not entirely escaped the effect of war. But no Yankees had visited here. Campbell Hill was blessed beyond measure compared with the houses along the Connicon. Then Zack turned and saw him. “Jedge Colin!" He left his mules and came running. Reaching Colin, he embraced mm. “Jedge Colin. Yonah back! Tstay?” “To stay. The war’s over." “Glory be! C’mon in!" . j He escorted Colin into the kitchen, where Nell hugged him ecstatically and assured him, “Jest si’ down! You’ll have vittles in a hustle!” "But I’m really not hungry, Nell.” “You got to be hungry— you looks half-starved—an’ vittles is one thing we got in plenty.” “The food will have to wait. There’s something I must do rigttraway, Nen," J Cbliri said. He knew that he must go to Ann at once. If he delayed, he might not have the courage to go at all. "Will you saddle Robin* please, Zack?” "So soon—” Zack began to protest. , "Saddle Robin, Zack,” Nell interrupted quietly. “The Jedge, he know* what he haT to do.” A few minutes later" when he reined to a halt before the Stewart cabin, Ann appeared in the doorway. “Cblin!” she said quietly. Her hand flew to her throat "Ann!" He searched her face closely. Like Betsie, she had changed with the years. Some of the sparkle was gone, but its absence Somehow emphasized the
Rev. Maurice Meyers Describes Visit With Present Pope In 1940 A visit with Pope John XXIII 18 years ago, when he was apostolic delegate in Istanbul, Turkey, described in the diary of the Rev. Maurice J. Meyers, S. J., son of Judge and Mrs. Edward W. Meyers, natives of Decatur, was published in the Sunday Visitor this week. Rev. Meyers was a dinner guest of the new pontiff while enroute from his ordination in the Society of Jesus to his first assignment in Shanghai in 1940. He described him as “a very cheerful person.” The next morning, while Rev. Meyers was out for a stroll, a taxi stopped beside him, and the apostolic delegate took him for a ride down the Bosphorus, the narrow strait of water that separates Europe from Asia, a beautiful ride, he recalled. “Had I the slightest inkling the delegate would one day be Pope,” Rev. Meyers added, “I am sure I would have found many interesting things to add to this short (diaryl notice.” Rev. Meyers is a brother of Robert E. Meyers, mayor of Fort Wayne, and has many cousins an uncle in the Decatur area. Book Review TARBELL'S TEACHERS’ 1959 GUIDE TO THE INTERNATIONAL BIBLE LESSONS, edited by Frank S.

To help the teacher strengthen the lesson presentation, visual aids of various types are suggested. The Guild is written especially for intermediate and adult age groups.

delicate strength of her beauty. Gentleness, intelligence, warmth, all the qualities that made her so dear, were deepened and mellowed. "You know?” he asked finally. “You got my letter?” “Yes. And I was prepared for it I’ve known, I believe, for a long time that it was going to happen. I think Ling knew, too." “What makes you say that?" Colin asked quickly. “Once in a while he would get someone to write me a letter for him. He couldn’t express himself well—but in little ways he was trying to tell me, to prepare me for it.” Colin thought a moment. “That fits in with something that Tracey Hamlin told me just awhile ago When we got home. And with something Ling gave him to give me.” He took the cloth from his pocket and walked toward Ann. When he stood beside her, he opened the wrapping. Ann stared at the ring. "He told Tracey to tell me that he knew I loved you, Ann, and that he had been trying to tell me for a long while but wasn’t able to. When I got this ring, he told Tracey, I’d know what he meant me to do." Ann stood staring at the ring, wrinkling her brow in bewilderment Then, very slowly, she began "to smile. "If that isn’t just like him!” she said affectionately. “Such a practical, no nonsense fellow.” “Ann, there's something more I have to tell you.” He went on to describe the raids, the way he had tried to prevent them and the final raid that had ended in , Ling's death. “I keep feeling that there was something more I should have done to keep him from going. Because I love you, , perhaps, unconsciously I wanted i Ling to go. I can’t judge myself. But I could understand if you i held me responsible and hated me for it” Ann looked intently into his eyes. “Hate you!" she said. ! “Colin, how needlessly you’ve tori tured yourself! Nothing could have stopped Ling—l know him. What can I do to get rid of this , insane idea you have?” . Colin’s arms‘Went around her ; and his lips met hers. Finally, he ; drew back and said, smiling . down at her, "If you want to keep me from insane ideas you only have to marry me and come with > the boys and your father to live at Campbell Hill.

Rockefeller Richest Man To Hold Public Office
By JACK V. FOX United Press International NEW YORK (UPD- On the 56th floor of the central skyscraper in the towers of Rockefeller Center is a door with the lettering: “Rockefeller, office of the messers.” t Behind that door are the offices of the world’s wealthiest clan— John D. Jr., 84. and four of his five sons: John D. 111, 52; Nelson, 50; Laurance, 48; and David, 43. If necessary, space can be found for Winthrop, 46, and for the one sister, Mrs. Abbe Mauze, 54. Nelson, governor-elect of New York and a 1960 Republican presidential possibility, is now by far the best known of the Rockefellers. But this is a close-knit family and seldom does one take a major step without consulting the others. Nelson, for example, asked his father and brothers to meet with him in suite 5600 last winter before making the final decision to put a Rockefeller in the political arena. Each Has Tremendous Fortune Each of the grandchildren of the late John D. has a fortune of more than 100 million dollars. The father’s wealth is estimated at more than 500 million dollars. The family is estimated to have given away two billion dollars altogether ranging from the dimes John D. passed out to such’ projects as buying up a vast tract in the Grand Tetons and donating it as a national park. The brothers are considerably different in temperament and ambition. John D. 11l calls himself “the shy one.” His main occupation is to administer the Rockefeller Foundation, the giant philanthropic trust which has given aifrari more than 565 ihillioff dollars and still h#s t nearly-600 million dollars h-R. He also is interested in the arts and hopes to create in New York a Lincoln center for the performing arts, making it the focal point for the finest talent w ’music,’ dancing and drama. Mrs. Mauze, wife of a banker, is the “silent partner” in the Rockefeller enterprises and also a reserved woman who had devoted her time to her family. Laurance Invests in Gadgets Nelson is the one with die greatest drive for public recognition. He onjy. one ofthe brothers not to see service ih World War II but that was because he was ordered by the White House to stay on in Washington as special assistant on Latin American affairs. Laurance is looked upon as the most ambitious speculator. After donating half the Island of St. John in the Virgin Islands as a national park, he has built on remaining property a magnificent luxury housing colony. He has a fancy for investing in gadgets, electronic devices arid supersonic* aircraft. One of his first and best investments was in Eastern Airlines. Winthrop lives apart from the family. He settled six million dollars on Bobo Rockefeller in their divorce and then moved to Arkansas where he created a huge model farm. He is now married to the former Mrs. Jeanette Edris. Worked in OU Fields 2 Winthrop is the only one of the boys ever to do hard work with his hands. A youth of six foot three and weighing 225 pounds, he dropped out of Yale and went to work as a hand in the Texas oil fields. He spent five years in the Army and was wounded off Okinawa. David, the youngest brother, is “the serious one.” He is vice chairman of the board of the Chase Manhattan Bank. It is estimated that the family gives away seven miUion doUars a year exclusive of the myriad grants made by the Rockefeller Foundation. They are active in about 200 philanthropic causes. As a result, helicopters spray coffee trees in Brazil; low-cost houses are built in Baghdad; astronomers search the skies from Mt. Palomar; scientists stalk can-
