Election News If you intend to vote in the city election this fall for city officers, or on the power question, you must be registered by October 5, which is only two weeks away. If you voted in the primary election last spring, or in the general election last fall (when Hartke, Handley, etc., were running) and have not moved sinced, you are still registered. If you have moved since you last voted, and believe that you now live outside of the precinct in which you were voting, or if you are not sure, check at the clerk’s office immediately. You must be transferred before the October 5 deadline. If you have any question about your registration, contact county clerk Dick Lewton, or one of his deputies, either at the court house, or by calling 3-4303 during regular business hours, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday, or 8:30 to 12 noon on Saturday. i Democracy is only effective when all the people are informed, and when they all take part in government. The best answer to Communism is active participation in Democracy. If you dislike the Reds, or hate Khrushchev, show it by practicing Democracy, and by voting for the candidates and, issues of your choice this fall. We can’t all debate in the United Nations, or represent our government in foreign capitals, but we can all exercise our hard-earned privilege of voting.

CHAPTER 34 •‘\V7E WANT that idol and we W want it rigKt now, Donald,” Sergeant Frank Sellers told me. ••Then we’ve got an answer to Mortimer Jasper. Then we can go ahead and get this case buttoned up. Otherwise he can claim you played us for suckers and we're out on a limb." 1 sighed. "1 don’t know why you take the word of some crook on a deal like that I suppose if 1 hadn’t been along and Jasper had accused Inspector Giddings of planting that idol, you’d have stuck up for him, Sellers. But because he accuses me, you come running up here In the middle of the night . . . Okay, let’s go get the idol." ••Where is it?" Sellers demanded. "In my apartment" “Let’s go,” Sellers said. I got up and buttoned my shirt collar. “He said let’s go,” I said, turning to Phyllis Crockett "You’re going to have a black eye, Donald,” she said. "That’s nothing,” 1 told her. “I think I’ve got a broken rib.” . "Come on, let’s go," Sellers said. "Donald Is going to give us that idol." “Well, now, wait a minute,” I said. “I didn't say I was going to give it to you. That idol is technically the property of Mrs. Crockett and—" "That idol is evidence, and you know it* Sellers Interrupted. “You had no business hanging on to it." “But” I said, “it's not stolen property." “What do you mean ?* I said, “Sylvia told me that Dean Crockett wanted her to take that." "Yeah." Inspector Thad Giddings said. "She tried to hand us that line —that lasted for Just about two minutes." ■ "Well, she told me that and I believed her.” "The bell you did," Giddings said. "She made a deal with you. You were to believe her on that, and she wasn’t going to blab about this other evidence that—" He broke off. Sellers said, "Let’s not do any more talking, Thad. Let’s go get that idol.” The three of us went down tn the elevator. The squad car was waiting outside. The two officers didn’t say a word as they drove me to my apartment house. We went up to my apartment. I opened the door and stood to one side. “Step right in, gentlemen,” I said, and switched on the lights. They entered the place, then suddenly stopped. “Whew!" Sellers exclaimed.

The British aircraft carrier Courageous was torpedoed and sunk by a German submarine, with a toll of 579 dead or missing. Rev. Homer J.

The Berne Chamber of Commerce has adopted a resolution favoring change of government from a town to a city status. O q Modern Etiquette | By ROBERTA LEE I o o Q. Just what is the correct way to eat an olive? Does one put the whole olive into the mouth at once, or does one take only small bites out of it while holding it in the fingers? A. A very small stuffed olive may be put into the mouth whole. A larger stuffed one should be eaten in two bites. A plain olive is held in the fingers and pieces bitten off around the stone. Q. Is it considered rude not to look at a person all during the time he or she is talking to you? A. You are expected to show

"What's wrong r ' l asnea. e They stood to one side so’l ’ could see the interior of the i. apartment. a “Good heavens, somebody has, i wrecked the place!” I exclaimed. - Sellers and Giddings exchanged i glances. 1 I hurried past them over to the desk and surveyed the jimmied f lock with lugubrious resignation. J "Well, it’s gone," I said. 1 Sellers shook his head. "This r time you’ve got to come up with 8 something better than that, Pint e Size.” * “What do you mean, something 8 better than that?" I blazed. * "Here’s my place completely 1 ruined and ransacked, and you birds are standing there dead on * your feet Now, suppose you quit kicking me around and find out who ransacked this apartment!” Sellers looked at Giddings. "The i guy’s got a point" he said. "Let’s * get a fingerprint man up here and take a look.” * He went to the phone and called headquarters. 1 By the time the fingerprint man arrived. I'd spotted the empty 8 flask on the kitchen sink. 8 "That’s not mine ” I said. Sellers turned to the finger1 print man. "Take a look." 5 The fingerprint man dusted the whiskey bottle. “It’s lousy with '• latents," he said. They took my fingerprints: 1 they dusted the apartment; they * didn’t find any fingerprints that 1 weren’t mine or the housekeeper’s except the fingerprints cm the 1 whiskey flask. “It looks like a plant," Giddings said. 1 “Os course it looks tike a s plant,” Sellers told him, “but we aren’t overlooking any bets; not - in dealing with thia guy.” ’ I said. “The guys that picked ■ on me were big fellows. I think 1 could Identify one of them : from a mug shot.” “Okay, Pint Size, we’ll give you 1 all the chance in the world," Sellers said. “Let’s go to headquar- ■ ters." > It was shortly after 1:30 AM. that 1 picked out a face in the mug shots. “That looks like the guy,” I told Giddings. Giddings was skeptical. “Okay, Wise Guy.” bo said, “we’ll check the fingerprints." Ten minutes later there was a very great change in the manner of Inspector Thad Giddings. “What about the prints?” I asked. Giddings looked at me and shook his head wonderingiy. "They check," he said. "The guy’s fingerprints are on that flask. You may be on the up and up after all.” 1 heaved a big sigh. “Well”,

attention to what he is saying by looking at him—but, of course, this does not have to be a fixed or hypnotic stare. Q. How does one introduce one’s stepfather? A. Introduce him as '*my stepfather,” and, of course, mention his name, as, “Mr. Fox.” Q. Does the well-dressed woman always wear a hat? A .It’s a fact now that a great many smart and impeccably dressed women (particularly younger ones) don’t own a hat of any kind, except the one they wear to church. Most hats do little to keep you warm, anyway, and uncovered heads of gleaming, well-groom-ed hair look undeniably attractive. Do what you want about hats—wear them or not as you please. Q. In an effort to return a luncheon favor. I have invited a friend to a luncheon in my home, but she is unable to accept. Is my obligation to her fulfilled, or am I supposed to invite her again? A. Your obligation is fulfilled only for the time being. Eventually, you should extend another invitation to her. Q. What is the origin of the custom of a bridegroom's carrying the bride across the threshhold? A. This custom stems from an idea held by the ancient Romans that it was a bad omen for the bride to stumble over the doorstep as she entered her new home. So, to prevent any such mishap, her husband carried her. And romantic husbands are still doing this today.

1 said, "now we know where the idol I had is." •"There are some other prints on there, too," Giddings said. “Let’s not go off half-cocked on this." They left me alone for twenty minutes, then Giddings and Frank Sellers both entered the room. "I guess we’ve got your men identified, all right. Pint Size," Sellers said. “How comer* “The man you identified is named Ferguson. He’s out on parole and he’s living at 9611 Sixty-first Street. He makes regular reports to his parole officer, has got a good job working in a TV concern. He’s an expert on electronics and has been making good on Ms parole. "However, while he was in prison he was teamed up with s fellow named Jimmy Lenox. Lenox’s prints are also on that flask. That ties the two of them tn together, and when those two crooks get together, you can gamble something is happening. "Moreover, that address at 9611 Sixty-first Street almost backs up on the place where Mortimer Jasper is living on Carroltoo Drive. Now then, we just could have something here.” I nodded. "It’d be a good idea, under the circumstances, if you signed a complaint charging Lenox and Ferguson with burglary, and made an affidavit that would enable us to get a search warrant." “Why should I sign anything ?" I said. “Why don’t you fellows take it on your own shoulders?" “Now look, Donald." Sellers said, and his voice was almost pleading “we’re in deep* enough on this thing. We’ve gone along on your say-so and . . . well, the whole thing is getting too mixed up. We aren’t going to stick our necks out any farther. Now, you're a private citizen as well as a private detective. Tour place has been burglarized and you think you know the men who did it. Be a sport. Sign a complaint and an affidavit and let us use a search warrant." 1 looked at Giddings. “I don’t know whether I feel like co-oper-ating or not. Tve been kicked around too much thia evening." Giddings took a deep breath. “Maybe 1 got you wrong earlies in the evening. Lam.” he said. The way he said it was Mkr having an his teeth pulled. “Come on," I told them, "let’s go."
