Long Retreats To Farm Home In Louisiana WINNFIELD, La <UPD — Gov. Ear] K. Long retreated to his tinroofed farm home in the north Louisiana hills today, miles from the nearest psychiatrist, and ordered reporters out of his sight. Long awoke early today after pulling into his “little pea patch” at about 2:30 am. c.d.t. He was heard summoning his state policeman bodyguard. The bodyguard. Lt. Russell Wil- ■ lie, came out moments later and told reporters at the gate that “he wants you all down there somewhere.” pointing down the road. “Get out of sight. He wants to rest.” Long, who roared away from Baton Rouge, the state capital, with sirens screaming Thursday night, was reported preparing to embark on his vacation today with a trip into Texas. Long drove here in a new Cadillac limousine, convoyed by state police cars. For the first time since Long got out of a mental hospital June 26, he made a trip without a psychiatrist at his elbow. As he left the mansion in Baton Rouge for the first time in 48 hours, he threw up his arms to hide his face. But he did not look particularly ill, despite reports that his condition is failing, when he arrived here.

Informed sources said Long would begin his vacation today j by going to Shreveport, La., to take a plane to Fort Worth. Tex. From there, sources said, he . would go to Austin, Tex., to ask Gov. Price Daniel why he didn’t help him get him out of the mental ward of John Sealy Hospital ( in Galveston last month. , And after leaving Austin, the , source said, Long planned to go to j Texas City, Tex., to see David Rankin, 14. the boy he met in the Galveston hospital and wants to , adopt. * > Rankin-spent most of the week with Long. He left the mansion ( for home Thursday morning. Reports concerning Long's condition were gloomy, although his aides attempted to present a rosy picture. His executive secretary, A. A. Fredericks, said a team of six physicians, psychiatrists and neurologists found him “so much improved” that they decided he didn’t need a psychiatrist at his side any longer. Dr. Robert Heath, one of the psychiatrists, quickly refuted this and said that the position of the doctors was still that Long’s con- ' dition was a matter of “con--1 tinued concern.” Missionary Film At • Monroe Methodist i A missionary film, “Monganga,” s will be shown a the Monroe Methi odist church Sunday evening at ‘ 7:3oo’clock. The 56-minute color s film tells the story of Dr. John E. Ross, a medical missionary to the ' Belgian Congo. — - -- I Trade to 8 good town — Decatut
Advises Wheat Sold At Harvest Time Purdue University agricultural economists advise Indiana fanners to sell their wheat at harvest time, which began last week and now is in full swing. This advice came from Purdue University this week along with a report on other commodity prices. The economists warn the farmer to consider storage for his wheat only if he has well-yentilated, rodent-proof facilities, and if the harvest time price is at least 20 cents below the loan rate, ranging from $1.82 to $2 per bushel. Economists add that the farmer should plan to lay in the year’s supply of oats at harvest time, pointing out that this practice “usually pays and probably will again this year." Corn and protein feeds should be purchased on a hand-to-month basis from now until harvest. Hog prices, the economists say in their commentary on prices, have hit or are near their seasonal, peak, and so hogs should be sold at optimum price-weights. There appears to be no reason lor panic selling, they add. There will be no significant price changes for fed cattle in the next month or so.. Although the milk prices across the country are averaging about five cents below those of last year, the Indiana dairymen continue to receive prices slightly above 1959 levels. There is a seasonal increase in egg prices in prospect. However,, Hooeisr egg producers will have to be content with prices that average well below the 34-cent levels of last year. Broiler prices should strengthen during the next six to eight weeks, but a seasonal decline is coming in September. For Indiana watermelon producers, the outlook is for a late summer price range above the 95cent per cwt. received last year. The July fresh tomato price outlook is uncertain, the economists conclude. aat>L »RhfeWMMNM Shortage 01 Rain Continues In State United Press International Indiana's longest crop season dry spell in several years threatened today to stretch past the middle of next week. Many Hoosier areas have received precious little rain since May and the shortage is beginning to .tell., particularly in pastures where topsoil moisture is low. The five-day outloko for the period ending next Wednesday indicated rainfall will total less than one-tenth of an inch to locally none. What little occurs will hold off until after the weekend. From a temperature standpoint, however, the outlook was forsbe-low-normal averages during the period. The outlook said temperatures will average 5 to 7 degrees below normal highs of 83 to 91 and normal lows of 60 to 72. “A little cooler Saturday, turning warmer again Tuesday or Wednesday,” the outlook said. Temperatures Thursday were in the 80s at high points around the state, ranging from 82 at South Bend to 88 at Evansville. The mercury dropped to the 50s and low 60s ovemightly, including 54 at Lafayette, 58 at South Bend and Fort Wayne, 60 at Indianapolis and 62 at Evansville. Highs today will range from near 80 north to near 85 south, lows tonight from the upper 50s north to the low 60s south, and highs Saturday from the upper 70s north to the low 80s south. Skies will be sunhy today, but partly cloudy conditions will prevail Saturday with a return to fair skies Sunday and "rather cool’’ temperatures. County Rural Youth Plan Outing Sunday The Adams county rural youth will spend Sunday at Pokagon State park. All young people are invited to join them for the one-day outing. The group will meet at the Decatur post office at 9:30 a.m. Sunday. The day will be spent in swimming, horseback riding, and other sports.

nibl« Maiarielt Deuteronomy 2> through M. Devotloaal Beaaiag: Isaiah 8:1-1 Choim Court * Leeson for July 12, 1988 NOT ALL choices are worth losing sleep over. What tie shall I wear today 7 Shall I drive to town by the old road or the new road? What shall I give Grandpa for his birthday? The results of these choices are not likely to be worldshattering one way or the other.
Dr. Foreman
Still, they might bo more important than you think. If you pick the wrong tie, the right girl may turn you down, for the reason that anybody who would wear a monstrosity like that couldn't
hkve much sense. If you take the new road to town, some of the new traffic may give you a funeral sooner than you expected. And if Grandpa happens to he very rich, the wrong kind of. present might induce him to change hls*Svlll. Dmlslom DslsrulM PMflay i There are great choices in life i as well as small. Looking back over a long life, an old man can see where thie decision or that changed the whole direction of his lifetime. A train crossing Missouri ■ approaches a little station where it will not stop. There is a long siding at that station, and it is empty. The express train could ! just as well be sent through the station on the siding as on the main track, they are both going In the same direction. But coming out of Union Station in St Louis, with its maze of switches —that is another proposition. AU trains head out of that station in exactly the same way, but when they hit those switches, they are turned once for all —westward to the Pacific Coast cities, or east to New York, or south to New Orleans. So tt is with life. Some decisions turn life toward a destiny of glory, or of misefy . , . depending on the ] •Boice . . . depending on the one who chooses. It was so when Moses said to his people: “I have set be- , fore you life and good, and death i and evil... therefore choose good.” "Owe Ts Iwy Maa yad Halloa" “Once to every man and nation comes the moment to decide,” wrote James Russell Lowell in what is now a well-known hymn. “Opportunity knocks but once,” is an old proverb. Hymn and proverb are partly true, partly not. When an opportunity for decision has been ignored, or when the wrong choice has been mads (and ignortag the choice entirely is itself a wrong choice), that particular opportunity, that one decision, does I not come again. What one has loet • by wrong decision is lost for good. But in the mercy of God there may i be other times. The nation of Israel, to whom Moses made his I appeal to decide for God, again and again had to make that same choice: Who 1< on the Lord’s side? When we think of how one generation follows another, we see how true it is. Our forefathers may have decided for God; but unless ws in our time face and act on that same central choice; For God, or against him? our ancestor’s good choices will not help us a great deal. Backgrmd far Dmlslsi No choice, whether that of a man or a nation, is made in a vacuum. A man makes the good choices, or the bad ones, of his life, against all the background of his earlier life, education and training. This is brought out in Deuteronomy where the heads of families are commanded to teach their children the law of God. This writer once met a young man who was a patient in a hospital. He talked quite freely about the problem that was bothering him. He was undecided what to do when he got out of there. Should he be a rum-runner, bringing “moonshine” ( out of the mountains into the city, or should he get a job in the post , office? AU he could see was that . the poet office job was safer, but the rum-running was better paid! , -That’s a little funny, but isn’t it a j little sad too? If that young man had been brought up in a Chris- ( tian home, if he had gone to church j and to Sunday school, if he had ■■ given his heart and his mind to ( Christ, how differently he would j have faced that problem, how dis- i ferent his choios would have bsenl 1 WINCHESTER CHURCH ‘ UNITED BRETHREN IN CHRIST 1 C.

GO TO CHURCH Rev. J. R. Meadows Nicodemus had sneaked in to see Jesus after the lights were out. Like a lot of fellows today, he was ashamed of the best desires that he had ever had. Who has not, at some time of his life, had a desire for a better life? It is possible for every man to live a life in harmony with God’s will for him. Don’t be ashamed of your desire to know more about that kind of life. Every man should have a desire for spiritual things. Some are too weak to live according to their convictions.) Set yourself to find out how to live the Christian life, and having found the way, live the life. The church will help you. Attend the church of your choice next Sunday.
