Parker and Kruger left the cock

A sudden feeling Of utter weari-

For a few seconds he sat at the

was thinking about supper time

The sound Of his voice, star

a shock. He had thought Of the
safety Of the others and forgotten
himself. just in time = just as he
was backing out, he got On his
oxygen mask, drew a deep breath
of life. Instantly his head cleared
and he snapped of the cockpit
lights and settled himself to fight
with an his strength and skin to
bring his ship and its people clear
of the invisible force that like a
giants hand was lifting them up
and up to the rim Of the world ;.
WHEN Mimi Lee, the chief stew
ardess, came into the cockpit,
Walter Harmon heard the click as
she plugged her oxygen line into
an outlet and thought it was Jack,
and turned to order him back to
his post IN the cabin. Then m the

oval Of her pretty face, the neat

jaunty cap. the 50 long familiar
curves Of her slim body. and his
heart was filed with the sadness of
good-by again. He handed her the
oo-piOt's oxygen mask that, like
his own, had a built-in communi-
Gator system. She put it on.

marriage was shaky. I remem-

wounded soldiers when Lucille
expressed a wish: 81 see Sc

and he doesn't act-if only we
could work together!"
How beautifully this dream
has materialized. I mentioned
this to Lucille on the set where
she was rehearsing her famed

voice was ripe with emotion as
she murmured, I'm so CRATE

Desi left as suddenly as he

how she perfumed herself.

To Dedicate Organ
I'm Sunday Service

A new Hammond spinnet organ re-
Gently acquired by the Button Luth-
eran church will be dedicated in
special services Sunday evening at
700 p. m. with DR.. George w. Miley,
president of the Ohio Synod of the
Lutheran church as the speaker.
Although residing in Columbus,
Ohio, now, DR.. Miley is a former
pastor of the large Augsburg Luth-
eran church of Toledo, and has spok-
en- before the local congregation on
previous occasions.
The new organ has replaced the
old foot-pumped reed organ which
was used for services for more than
half a century. After a decision TO
purchase the organ was reached some
time ago, funds for its acquisition
were raised by subscription in the
congregation over a 60-day period.
The ~dedicatory service, which be-
gins at 7:30, will be preceded by an
organ recital beginning half an hour
earlier. Otto H. Holtkamp, profess
sor of the school of music, Button
college, will be at the keyboard of
the new instrument.
Regular church organists are Mrs.
Walter Stratton and Mrs. William
Edwards, both of whom are studying
organ under Professor Holtkamp.

Saved From Death
By MOnOxide Gas
Detroit Man Overcome I'm
Auto On Main Street
Receivers AT Hospital

Discovered unconscious in his auto
mobile parked on downtown Main
Street at 1890 a. m. Sunday, Law
renee Brausseau, of Detroit, Mich,
may have escaped death through the
curiosity of pedestrians who noticed
his body slumped in the front seat Of
the car.
Chief of Police Fl. L. Coon and DR..
B. w. Travis were called to the car,
parked in front of the Godfrey Big
Ter home, after some unidentified
passersby had noticed the condition
of the Michigan man.
Unable to rouse Brausseau from the
coma, the officials had him taken to
Bluffton Community hospital in the
Paul Diller ambulance.
It was believed that Brausseau had
been overcome by carbon monoxide
gas, for after parking the car here
in early morning he left the motor
running to keep the interior warm
and also charge the battery.
He had recovered sufficiently by
late afternoon to leave with his sister,
Mrs. Clyde Sherwood, of Cincinnati,
who came here with her husband after
being notified by authorities. Braus-
seau was enroute from Detroit to Mrs.
Sherwood's home when overcome here.

Free food for our feathered friends
will be provided by the Button Com
munity Sportsmen's club in a winter
song bird feeding program in which

are urged to participate.
Mixed grain for birds is available

Winter feeding Of song birds has
been an established program in
Button for nearly a decade, with the
Sportsmen's club providing the free
grain.
Although there has been little snow
so far this winter, food for birds is
becoming quite scarce and supple
mental feeding on the part of resi-
dents of the town and community
will be required to keep many birds
from starving, officials of the Sports
men club pointed out this week.

With the addition of a fifth bus
to the Button school fleet and the
establishment of five instead of four
routes, school children may in the
outlying areas find that they have
an extra five or ten minutes to eat
breakfasts and meet the big yellow
vehicle after the routes, which go
into operation January 5, are well
in operation.
Superintendent of Schools A. B.
Murray said Monday that the revised
routes would go into operation on
the opening day of school following
the Christmas vacation.
Because the addition of a fifth bus
will make it possible to shorten some
of the present routes pupils will
probably find they will spend less
time on the bus and it may be pos
sible for the drivers to start on
their routes a little later in the
morning.
However, on the first few days of
operation, the buses will leave on
their routes at the usual 1880 start
ing time, planning to arrive at the
school by $3.50 a. m.
For the benefit of families using
the bus transportation the News
lists the revised routes with the fam
lily names of pupils who will be
picked up on each route.
