The Pathfinder. One effect of Mrs. Henderson's campaign against "immodest" dress and actions of women has been to revive the -"flapper” controversy. The modern miss is either a perfect specimen or is headed straight for perdition—it all depends on which side you take in the lively discus sion now going on. Those who admire today's girl sing her praises to the sk.v. They say the older generation is envious. They view the present fuss as a recurrence of the periodic clash be tween young and old ideas. The other faction insists that something is wrong but is undecided whether to blame it on the war. the home, the old folks or the "jazz” age. “The ravages of this jazz period are beyond computation,” "Hilly” Sunday told President t'oolidge over a breakfast of wheat cakes at the White House not long ago. The evangelist hastened to add: “They affect all classes, young and old." “.Tass is not so bad in itself,” re marks Francis Clark, founder of the Christian Endeavor Society. "How ever. frivolity keeps the mind off more serious, worthwhile things. That is where the danger lies. Short skirts and bobbed hair, power and paint, are all part of this jazz living. It will wear off some day.” He thinks the majority is being oensured for what the few do, and blames the old folks for being just as foolish as youngsters. “If mother powders her tiose,” he comments, "daughter does likewise. Children will not be any better than their parents.” Mrs. May Edgett, Baltimore pro bation officer, has this to say: "Be neath the rouge and lipstick, and in spite of the rolled hose and short dresses, girls of today are not a bit wo&o than women ever were. There is no need to flay today's girls be cause of their*clothes or their habits. It is a result of the age and will pass with the age. It is shocking only if we look at it. with the viewpoint of 20 yeaps ago. Talk about increased immorality is wrong.” "Sheiks and flappers are not the product of some strange revolt of youth,” according to Mrs. Andrew Stewart of the Washington Parent- Teacher Association, “but are the logical outcome of a lack of family life, where the parents think they can’t And time to give a share of attention to the things that are in teresting children in the critical period between the ages of 13 and ! 17.” Stanly Kelley, school head, chal lenger! parents. “Old folks,” he com ments. “are just young folks grown up.

Youth Companion. Taxation is a never-ending source of controversy. Even if we grant the highest motives to those who de termine what taxes shall be levied, their judgment never recommends itself to everyone. Absolute justice is. or ought to be. their aim;—but ab solute justice is difficult, to come by: it has never been attained in taxa tion. Take, for example, the matter of estate, or inheritance, taxes. Al though many people deny the justice of that kind of taxation altogether, it may be taken as settled that every government has the right, to resort to it if desired to do so; and it is probably no more burdensome or annoyiug than any other form of taxation, when it is itelligently and fairly employed. Most Americans are resigned to it, it for no better reason than that which reconciled the Dutchman's wife to death—because they have to be. But there is con tinual protest against the way in which it is levied- To begin with, a sizable estate is usually exposed to a half a dozen, or more, different imposts. Every state, with the exception of four or five, taxes the estates of its deceased citizens. But most states also tax any property that lies within their borders, even when it belongs to citizens of other states. And then, to cap all, the government Os the United States lays still another tgx on all estates of over $50,000, amounting in the ease of very large states to almost forty per cent of the net amount. That means that the same piece of property may be taxed a, least three separate times. ludeed it is possible that an estate might include stock in a corporation rhat was inoorpornt . ed in half a dozen states and owned property in half dozen ns I re. If the deceased owner of the stock lived in ■ still another state and left property enough to be subject to Federal taxation, this piece of property might be levied on fourteen distinct times. It might easily be eaten up entirely by taxation, and the estate might be left still indebted to three or four of the states thnt asserted a c.aim upon it. Executors find that in settling even a very moderate estate j legal proceedings in from half a 1 dozen to a dozen states are neces , sar.v. with fees and .charges that 1 usually amount to more than the I taxes themselves. Moreover, the j states are continually amending ! their rates of taxation—generally up ! ward. Massachusetts has changed its daw twenty-nine times in thirty-five yeni-ii- New Jersey has amended its law fourteen times in fifteen years. I ucertainty is added to the other exasperations of the situation. There will be continual dissatis faction with inheritance taxation until these unnoyaDces are remedied. They are not inherent in the tax 1 itself, but are the result of our Feel- j era! system, which distributes auth ority between the government at' ; Washington and torty-eight separate I states. The Englishman or the Frenchman pays only one tax on an I inheritance, because there is only one governtaent that has the right to itn- j pose such a tax. It ia only fair that! an American estate should pay on tax, and thnt it should be relieved ] of the bother and expense of pro-1 traeted legal proceedings in connec- 1 tion with it. The simplest way out j would be for the Federal government j to withdraw from the field, and let I the states levy, all Inheritance taxes J and to provide that taxes could only be collected by the state in which the dead man had his resi-1 denee. Bot even then we should have injustice, for the states would doubt less differ widely among /themselves : about tty\ rates to be assessed, as' they do now. It is a complicated and unsatis factory situation.

The telephone was newfangled, and an insult to the United States mails. p* As for radio, aeroplanes, wireless photography—if they had been bom then, he probably would have thought them N a bit immoral. But he’s changed. He’s been educated. His point of view has been made broader and more modem. * He has been civilized—by the automobile, the telephone, radio, advertising. Every single one has opened up new paths for him, taught him new things. Advertising, especially. Ad vertising tells him the new things to wear, the best things to eat. Advertising tells his wife how to make a home up to date and attractive. Advertising tells him the prices to pay for things he buys, saves him from the old-fashioned ways of doing business—helps him live well, keeps him modem. v Advertising can help you.

' Pittsburgh, Jan. 28. —The broad -1 (noting of heat by radio is only a ! matter of years, in the opinion of Professor 8. E.

Mr. Dibble, I president of the American Society of | Heating and Ventilating Engineers, | and bolder of the Ahens professor- I ship in plumbing, heating and ven tilating, Wlieves that “it no more im ixwaible to broadcast heat wares I than it was to broadcast sound 1 waves.” i The problem of pending heat to consumers via the air is now the problem of research men and labors s . profemor Bibbta- jliheric conductivity is wwentinl be cause of the gradual exhaustion of the elements of fuel, said the pro fessor, adding “the day , is not far off, in my opinion, when we will see huge centralized heating plant* broadcasting heat to homes, indus tries and offlee buildings." A Good Work Still. Hickory Record. There is no use criticising ,the sal ary and wage commission because it ■ has approved more increases than it , {**“ decreases. A state that is grow . ing in leaps and bounds, as North . Carolina is, cannot expect to pass the . hand of magic over it and have the i operating expense cut. The commis- I sion has systematised and made uni form all salaries of State employes. , Not much else could have been ex . parted. If North Carolina continues to ; de . velop during the neat year as it baa • «“»*' th * “'arie* of employes : wni be increased even more. But ' who could expert it to be otherwise? When large industrial plants expand •* employ workmen It ,- ;i ( %SjsNl • xjo does not expect to do so at a saving in wages. But it docs pay on a uniform scale and keep a degree of contentment in the rank. This is all the salary and wage commission has uhdertaken to do. We cannot arouse ourselves to any great degree of indignation over the fact that the commission did not Bet aside Lee's birthday as a holiday for State employes. If this state is to be rjun as a business government it should not let sentiment curtail the work. Our love and respect for the great southern general can be as deep as the blue waters, bat we see o reason why State employes should alone be given a holiday to celebrate hie birth.

We fart to the - Wednesday, Jan. 27, 1926 yet Governor McLean has classed him as a Republican and the party is de nied representation on the highway commission as the law directs. The law say 8 that at least three of the members of the highway commission shall be of the opposite party and the three supposed Republicans on the commission are C. R. Wheatley, J. Klwood Cox and Andrew M. Kistler We have never heard the Republican ism of Mr. Wheatley questioned but the other tw* we have. As to Mr. Cox we cannot say, we only know that' during the last campaign he never opened his mouth in behalf of the party. As to Mr. Kistler he hob-nobs and rides around with the Democrats and in 1924 he contributed S2OO to the State Democratic fund. Would you call him a straight ortho < dot .Republican? Governor McLean ewes it to the Republican party of the state in fact if he obeys the law he should remove Kistler, the Bevo Republican, and appoint a man who f . is straight Republican. { TIMER-TRIBUNE MSNNT ADSi Alii & h
