I .lam county.

' The rehabilitation office foi Put- * nam county is located on the fourth : floor of the courthouse. Greencastle. j Through recent designation of Clark and Warrick counties as drouth counties, the entire state is now eligible for tins tvpe of aid, ac-

cording to word received here from E. H. Shideler, state rehabilitation director. “However, Putnam county farmers are not eligible for this help if they can obtain loans elsewhere,” Mr. Bell said. “Each application will be carefully considered and approved if in conformity with regulations.” Word from Shideler stated that Indiana has, at the present time, an allocation of $150,000 for loans and grants under the resettlement administration's droutn aiu program. Of this amount, $105,000 is provided for supplementary loans and $15,000 for subsistance grants. “Additional funds probably will be allocated if necessary,” Shideler said. Loans are made to carry drouthstricken farmers through to the next crop season or until they can obtain income from other sources. The loans will be made for a period not to exceed 18 months and cany a 5 per cent interest rate. Grants will be made for human subsir.tanc only. BANNER ADS GET RESULTS

it, brother, and sock it good.” Longfellow smiled. "It's all over now. I got it off my chest.” "1 think you're swell,” Morrow continued. “You're my guest from now on." "Thanks, but Miss Dawson (That's the name Babe had given him) and 4 were going out to see the sights." "Fine. Hop aboard my magic carpef and yiiu'11 set ights you've never seen before. Friend, we're going on a real, good binge!" Late the next ifternoon Walter, Deeds’ valet, was having his trouI ' u . 11.: i • 1 1 v. A f! ■ r a particularly violent shake. Lingfellow opened one eye and looked at Walter. "Good afternoon, sir," Walter said. “If you'll permit me to say so, sir. you were out on quite a bender last night.” "Bender?” Longfellow shook his h( id "oh, no. We started to go out on a binge but we never got to it. Has Miss Dawson called yet?” “Miss Dawson? No. sir." "I must call her up and apologize. I don't remember taking her home ” "I’d venture to say you don't remember much of anything last night.” "What do you mean?” Longfellow was Indignant. " i rememboi everything. Hand me my punts.' Walter smiled apologetic lly. "You have no pants, sir. You c no home without them. Matter of fact you came home without any clothes. You were in your shorts.” Longfellow was skeptical. "Now, that'.- silly, Walter. You know I couldn't wulk around the . :roots without clothes. I'd be arre^l O'j.” Walter agreed. "Ye.-, sir That’s what the two polic( m n who I brought you home said, 'i hey said | you and another man were stand- | nig in the street in your shorts, j feeding doughnuts to a horse and shouting ‘Back to nature!’ They said you were feeding doughnuts to I the horse to see bow many h- d

"Go right ahead,” Babe said, "don't worry about me.” (Posed by Jean Arthur and Gary Cooper)

Across the room Longfellow's waiter had stopped at a table where three men were sitting He told them about Longfellow and his request to meet celebrities. "Lets invite him over," said one of the trio. "Might get some laughs.” Longfellow was thrilled to meet Henaberry, Morrow and Bookfteld and it was some few minutes before he realized that their pretended interest in how he composed his jingles for post cards and their extravagant compliments were their method of kiddirfg him. When lie did understand their motives he was deeply hurt "I guess I get the idea," he told them "You invited me over here to make fun of me. It's easy to make fun of somebody if you don’t care how much you hurt them. 1 know I must look funny to you. but maybe if you came to Mandrake Falls you'd look funny to us. But nobody would laugh at you and make you ridiculous—’cause that wouldn't be good manners. If it weren’t for the young lady who is with me. I'd probably bump your h'. nds together.” “Go right ahead" Babe interpoeed. "Don’t worry about me." That was enough for Longfellow. As Brookfield and Henaberry rose fiOtll their chairs, Deeds launched two swift punches that sent them both sprawling. Then he turned to Babe. “We can go now," he said. 'T feel better.” But they did not get far. Before they had reached the door Morrow hod overtaken them. "Hey, there,” he called, "you left me out." Pointing to hla chin he continued, “Sock

eat before asking for a cup of coffee." Ixmgfellow shook a finger at Walter "If a man by the nam* of Morrow calls me, Walter, tell him I'm not in. That man is crazy, Walter." At that moment Cobb burst into Ijongdellow's bedroom, his hands filled with newspapers. "Well," ho shouted, "have you gone nuts? What did you do hast night? Who were you with? Why did you dn it? Look at these papers!" Ho filing the armful of papers at Longfellow Screaming headlines jumped at Longfellow. “CINDERELLA MAN ON A SPREE” Punches Literary Lights at Tullio’s. Feeding Doughnuts To Horse* Hick Town Poet Laureate Shows Big City How to "Cut Up" Punches Literary Light at Tullio’s. Longfellow Jumped out of bed. "What do they mean by this?" he demanded ‘Cinderella Man!'” ‘TJsten, Longfellow," Cobb pleaded, "you've got brains. You’ll get along fine if you’ll only control your homicidal inst incts. And keep your trap shut! Don't talk to anybody. Those reporters are laying for you.'* “You're right,” said Ixmgfellow. "I mustn’t talk to anybody.' 1 "Beg pardon, sir,” Walter Interrupted. "Miss Dawson on the ’phone.” Longfellow beamed "Fine! I’ll talk to her! Hand me the ’phone. She's the only one I'm going to talk to from now on.” (To ba continued.)
