Parkhurst, director of health education for the State Anti-Tuberculosis association. The Association is co-sponsor of the clinics, which seek out, by means of chest X-rays, possible cases of tuberculosis among adults. The health department is the other co-sponsor.

The clinic, in covering the state, has taken thousands of chest X-rayS in the various localities it has visited. There is no charge of any kind connected with the clinic, the service being made possible in part by purchase of Christmas seals. The clinic is primarily for adults but children 15 years of age and under will be X-rayed if accompanied by their parents and if their parents are also X-rayed. In Williams headquarters for the clinic will be at the high schooi, and at Flagstaff the clinic will be located at Arizona State College. Let Want Ads do your selling.

A. Reid, the cattleman, was in Flagstaff last Friday from his headquarters at Seligman. The first four miles of the 11-mile Highway 66 relocation project east of Flagstaff will be finished around November 1 but the link will probably 4not be opened to traffic until late next summer, J. C. Wellborn of the field office of Fisher contracting company said Tuesday.

It will not be possible to open the link until the entire re-location is finished. Mr. Wellborn said, because until an overpass and the eastern seven miles are complete the west end will stop at a dead end. Work is progressing rapidly on the western end of the job. Pouring of concrete started around September 1.

Through September 16, 11,244 feet had been laid, averaging around 1400 feet a day. Bad weather has slowed up pouring the last few days, but it is hoped to have all concrete down by October 10, it was stated. After the two lanes of concrete are finished, only the laying of shoulders will remain for the completion of the Fisher job. On the eastern end of the job, Tanner Construction company officials reported that grading for their seven miles would be finished between November 1 and 15, at which time operation on the job would cease for the winter. Practically all excavation for the east link is finished, after which the laying of a cinder base will be the next step, according to Charles Luken, office manager.

Sand and gravel for concrete for the eastern seven miles is being hauled now, in order that work on pouring can get underway without delay next spring after the weather breaks. It is hoped to have the concrete work done shortly after the middle of next summer, Luken said. Superintendent on the Tanner job is A. W. Rogers.

The Tanner company has had from 70 to 75 men employed on the project most of the summer. Another hurdle will remain after completion of the eastern link, before the new roadway is opened, it was pointed out by both contractors. Bids are yet to be let on an overpass connecting the ends. The Fisher job is on the north side of the railroad, while the Tanner job is pn'the south side. The eastern end of the relocation joins the pres ent highway a' short distance beyond the Winona overpass.

Proposals were called on the overpass early this summer, with the Fisher company submitting the low bid, but it was rejected as being too much in excess of engineers estimates for the project. CAPE DAIRY FARMERS -TURN OSTRICH BREEDERS JOHANNESBURG (AP) Nearly half the dairy farmers of the Oudtshoorn district of the cape have notified the local creamery that they are giving up their herds in favor of ostriches. To cash in on the feather boom, farmers already have turned wheat lands into ostrich camps, and pumpkins are being bought in large quantities on the local market to feed ostriches. Day-old chicks are fetching $16.14 each, but the banks consider the feather trade too speculative and are refusing loans to buy breeding birds. Phone 21 to place your Want Ad.

And for a while there was quite a furore. What magic words Colin finally used on her no one ever knew, but in the end she ate her meal, as usual, in bed and in seeming contentment. To be sure, Colin sat beside her while she ate and when the nurse and I carried in the trays, he was making outrageously complimentary speeches to the old lady, over her delighted protests. He even persuaded her to take a little nap, promising to look in on her again after his own dinner. The dinner, so far as the food was concerned, was excellent, and I managed to serve without mishap, even to pouring the wine into fragile crystal goblets without spilling a drop.

What with Colins enthusiastic comments on the sauce for the crab cocktails and on the onion soup, both special concoctions of hers, Ellen was in fine feather when we came back to the kitchen. YWhat did I tell you? she said triumphantly. I told you hed appreciate it, didn't Ah, just wait till he tastes my roast ducklings. And didnt the table look grand, Celia, with those irises of the Professors In the silver bowl? I agreed that it did. The irises from Marks garden were just the color of Miss Charlottes eyes and her dress in the candle light And from the way he kept looking at her, Colin Fitzgerald must have appreciated this fact as well as that Cousin Ellen was a superb cook.

Colin was doing most of the talking, of course, which was as it should be. After all, was he not the trawler just returned from far-off lands? ft was only natural that such a one should monopo-Lze the cunvuiaLon, eseuaiiy BswLf imemm Bv Alice -M Loverick copyright. 1946, ul j-viiie w. i-ureniK. NEA rvice, inc one so gifted in the art as that same black Irishman.

Miss Charlottes eyes were sparkling and she laughed excitedly and often, and Father Gene was intensely interested in Colins tales. But Mark was not impressed, you could see that. TT was when I carried in the salad that he flared up at Colin, and I nearly dropped the tray in my agitation. I laid it down carefully on the sideboard and stood there unnoticed while the storm swept by me. Colin was saying, So they havent made you a bishop yet.

Father? Sure, its a crying shame. I thought by now a man like yourself, with your personality and ability, would have the whole diocese to Never mind what you thought, Mark broke in furiously. Have some respect for Father Gene and for the Cloth he wears. Because youve been among those who hold nothing sacred, theres no need of your aping them. Upon my word, youd do well to do a little traveling yourself, my dear Mark, said Colin hotly.

"This provincial life is certainly making you more narrow-minded than ever, which is saying a lot. Miss Charlottes eyes were wide with distress and Father Burke said quickly, Now, Ill not be the bone of contention between you two. It was noble of you, Mark, to take up the cudgels for me, but Im sure Colin meant no harm. My apologies to you. Father, said Mark, for my burst of temper and for my brothers insolence.

And to you, Charlotte. I wag not a ware of being insolent, Colins dark eyes were flashing. And, in any case, I am able to make my own npokg.es. Come, come now. Remember, both of you, you have a very sick mother.

Father Gene said. Stop acting like two hot-headed school-bovs. The two men stopped glaring at each other. Mark muttered, Sorry. And Colin laughed Mea maxima culpa.

Father Gene, he said. And I dared to serve the salad.

They were all quite wet and Father Burke, being momentarily blinded by his rain-splashed glasses, nearly fell over Colins bags there in the hall He seemed to think this quite amusing, but Marks eyes, fixed on the tags, were not amused. Indeed, they looked very grim and there was an edge on his voice as he said. So the prodigal has returned once more. CharliAte flashed an anxious glance at him, then smiled at me as I took her wet things. Mark said, Do you know Cecelia Hart, Father? Ah.

yes, Cecelia. Father Burkes near-sighted brown eyes were twinkling as he wiped his glasses. That would be Tom Harts daughter, wouldnt it? Over in North Lynchester, Saint Dominic's parish? Sure, I know Tom well. Good evening, Cecelia. Good evening.

Father, I said and with an embarrassed little bow, I retreated to the kitchen, where Cousin Ellen was Inclined to be quite vexed with me, until I told her Colin had come home Thank God hes home at last, she said, the dour look leaving her face. That'll be enough to cure Herself entirely. Get out the best linen, Celia, and get your apron on. Ah, hes the one that knows the good things to eat and apprfetics them, Colin ii..
