Carolyn asked casu- Sr.Pj' felt the blood rush to he checks rind tr:cd to answer in differently, but it wasn't too con vincing. "I haven't seen Doctor Kaliock to talk to in days, Caro lyn. And I don't think I snub him." "He thinks you do, and it's realiy too bad, because he's such a fine young man. I'm very fond of Jim Dick likes him, too, don't you, darling?" "Fine chap. He's going into the service very soon now, I hear. He seems eager to go. I hope he comes back safely. After this mess is over America is going to need his sort. There aren't too many of them." Sally said nothing for a mo ment. She was hoping against hope that Blair Canfield's name would r.ot be brought up and as if her very fear generated the thought, Richard Gregory said sympathetically: "So many fine young men will net come back. Of course there are any number of the missing who later are found in concentra tion camps or stranded on un inhabited atolls far off the beaten track and most of them appear none the worse for the experience. I have found it a very good idea to hang on not to give up hope." "But, Dick," Carolyn protested, "Sally was a child and Blair couldn't have been much more when he went away. What do youngsters of seventeen or eight een know of love? They might not even like each other now. Have you ever thought of that, Sally?"

It said this could be accom plished by giving the farmer a stan. lard of living equal to those of other workers. "Such a standard of income." i: explained, "should be based on faun unit of economic size, effi ciently operated, and affording full-time employment for labor and mana Tement." The chamber, in an analysis of agi icui'ure's future, waarued that the old boey for farm surpluses p-obably will bob up again as sj sisi.io pooj ui.sJd -").;i sa uoos ovei. This, it said, will necessitate an adjustment between supply and demand- SounO Policies Needed "The almost cer ain result of a failure to settle at an early date on seund policies end an effective By LUCY AGrES HANCOCK "Why must we talk about it?" Sally aked wretchedly. "TJECAUSE it is spoiling your life, darling," the young physician persisted. "Dick is going to see what he can do abo'jt it. He has ways and means of finding out things and perhaps your Blair is alive somewhere. If so, you should know and if he actually is dead why, then you can put him completely out of your mind and life. I don't mean to sound callous, darling: but you are too young te spend all your life grieving over a childish romance." "I'll find out what I can, Sally," Richard Gregory promised her, "and will let you know as soon as I have anything definite to report." Sally said nothing. Her heart was lead her mind in a turmoil. What had she done? This Richard Gregory would discover there was no aviator by the name of Blair Canficld lost in the Pacific at the beginning of the war. Then what? Just what did that make her? She heard the clock in the hall chime ten and stood up. "I've got to go, Carolyn," she said and scarcely recognized her own voice. "I'm on a very special case right now Doctor Channing and there are certain things I must do tonight. The dinner was delicious, Mrs. Bacon, and I have enjoyed meeting you, Mr. Greg ory." "May I walk back to the hospi tal with you, Sally?" Carolyn's fiance asked as she slipped into her light coat. "It really isn't necessary she demurred. "I don't mind going alone I'm not the least bit timid "I can believe that," the young man grinned. "But just the same I want to go, if I may."

"Good right, darling, and when you see Jim Hallock! be a little kind to him. He de serves it." C ALLY said good night and the two started out on the long walk back to the hospital. They had gone scarcely two blocks when Richard Gregory asked softly: "Just what is there about this Blair Canfield, Sally? Just why do you want me to keep hands off?" And because Sally was upset ; and at the end of her rope, she blurted out the whole story al most in one breath. The hand on her elbow pressed gently and the voice that had haunted her for weeks murmured sympathetically: "I think I understand, my dear. You're not the stuff of which successful liars are made, hence your feeling of embarrassment and shame. But you haven't commit ted a very heinous crime, Sally. I doubt if anyone, even the man himself were such a person in ex istence could find it in his heart to censure you. My advice to you is to forget it the entire affair. Put Blair Canfield and that name sounds strangely familiar to me somehow entirely out of your life. What about this young Hal lock? He seems a fine chap and Carolyn thinks he's fond of you." "Xo!" the girl cried. "Don't you see? He knows about he thinks he's heard " "That's all right," the man said evenly; "competition is often a very good thing." "Shall you tell Carolyn, Mr. Gregory?" she asked dubiously. "Why should I?" he countered. "And why not waive formalities, Sally? After all, I'm going to marry one of your best friends. 'Dick' is very easy to say and I want us to be friends. No, I shall be quite unsuccessful in getting any i-'ormation regarding Blair Canfield possibly even prove conclusively that he is dead. It shall be our secret, Sally. No one else need ever know. Feel better?" (To Be Continued) By Fred Harmzn ORE3!

Pawnee Wheat Yields Are High With harvest in full swing and most wheat fields already har vested, many reports of very sat isfactory yields have been receiv ed. From all indications. Pawnee has proven to be superior to many of the older varieties of wheat in this section of the state. With as many fields of certified Pawnee wheat in the county, wdieat grow er? should have no difficulty in securing a supply of good seed for their If 47 crop. There are sever al advantages of Pawnee such as its re. istance to leaf and stem rut, resistance to hessian fly and good milling and baking qualities that growers should consider vvh.cn planning to seed this fall. j Elmwood Farmerette on Radi The Elmwood Farmerettes, the only all-girl 4-H livestock club in Votn-otl -,, a,-,. r,,n,..i ici?r -iv ...... im, ... 1 V IK Ul 11 VJ V CI Jl . 1 1 Saturday, July G.
