Arnilst ice Day Program An Armistice Day program was presented for the enjoyment of the student body on Friday, November | Helen Gragg presided, while Fran- j ces Miller announced the various , numbers. The program opened with 1, a group of boys singing "Here We |, go 'Round the Mulberry Bush." Scrip- i: ture reading by Vivian Carico was foiiowed by prayer. Martha Moore ; sang a solo, "In Flanders Field." : Next were three one-act plays on , peace and ways of preventing war. , Lalla Clay gave a musical reading ] entitled "The Unknown Soldier." AH sang "Pack up Your Troubles," an t concluded tile program with "The Star Spangled Banner." The program was very Inspirationp.l and was enjoyed by all the students. Chapel Program Saturday, November l<> The American Legion presnted a special program for National Education Week. Mr. Teal was in charge. Allegiance to the flag was pledged in unison, and a verse of "America" was sung. Mr. Tea!, a member of the American Legion, made a 3hort talk and Mr. Chisholm taiked on America, how it has ben served in the past and how we may serve it in the future. We enjoyed the talks and appreciate the interest they showed in our welfare by speaking to us on the subject which is now of vital interest to every American. The New High School We, the students of B. H. S., are overjoyed with the thought of getting a new school building. We hope that the plans may be carried out. We have tried to make out with the school building we are now using, and to make it as comfortable and attractive as possible. Some of the rooms, as you know, have potted flowers and curtains in them. The equipment we have is not sufficent but we are doing' our best with u, rur a long time wc nave ncaea s an auditorium and gymnasium. These q improvements we are hoping to find r in the "new school building." a Taking this opportunity, we are > thanking those who are responsible for the new building. t The Rambler t Crash! Bang! Whoopee- Gangway! c Uh huh, you guessed it! Cest moi, as t the French say. Yes, I am back on the job again this year, and, friends, if you've cherished any fond dreams of getting rid of me this year, I am afraid you are badly mistaken. I c will be with you again this year ? f and?Naughty! naughty! Now, is that a nice welcome, I ask you?? ^ Now for a little gossip. Several of our faculty members of last year 1 nave been replaced by new teachers. Mr. Tennyson (not Alfred fiord himself? must by a descendant) is now the head of the Physics and Biology departments as well as the teacher t of Geography?(By the way, geogra- 1 phy is a new subject they've just ? given us the privlege of studying for * the first time thi3 year.) Miss J Rhyno, replacing Miss German of t last year, is the instructor of the c Home Economics Department; Miss c Mickle takes Miss Graybeal's place ? in the English Denartment nn.i loot ' but not least, however, Mr. Merrit Is ? our new coach. He is probably better 1 known by the friendly title of Coach ''Monk" Merrit. If the various physi- J clans of the B. H. S. students report j a reduction in the students" weights, c you will know it is 'because of the l fact that our cafeteria has not yet 1 opened up, and, alas, we students ? have no hot zoup (as Wimpy says) ' for our lunches. Well, all "good" ^ things must come to an end, so I'll CAN- I SUPPOSE ME THATS THE 1 HE* -TRY MV COMI HOUSE OF HAZARDS By iSlX*^ Mac Arthur fp?|| SOCIAL SECURITY I PLANS OUTLINED ___ Employment Pension Tax Begins in' 19SC But is Not Payable Until I Jan., 1937?Age Levy Later. ( i Washington.?Deluged by queries t from anxious employers, the social! security board emphasized yesterday thai federal old-age and unemployment taxes do not become payable until 1937. The flood of requests from nessmen for information has become! so heavy that a form letter has been drafted in the hope of allaying immediate worries over the levies. In addition to taxes, business is concerned over what information regarding pay rolls and employes it will be called upon to furnish to aid j the board in administering the pen- J sions. j Henry Se'dcmann, the board's co- j ordinator, said today that forms for) this information "will be os complete as it is possible to make them, and f yet effective for the laws purposes." j The board is working on rules, j regulations, forms and procedure for? the contributory old-age benefits, j which the government will start paying in 1942. Its letter says that until these are completed, the board is not in position to say what will be required of employers. Similarly, the miscellaneous and income tax units of the interest revenue bureau are studying tax collec- I lion p-ans, but have not yet made j sufficient progress for an announce- | no pn I The letter emphasizes, however, Lnat while the unemployment pension tax becomes operative next Janjary 1, the first, return, covering: the pear 1936, need not be made before January, 1937. The old-age levy does not become effective Until 1937. By 1949. the assessment on employers will increase to 3 per cent, pf their annual pay roll3 for the oidige pension fund, together with an additional 3 per cent deducted from Evorkers' salaries. This tax starts at I per cent each for workers and employers in 1937. Employers of eight or more per?ons mus+ pay 1 per cent, of their mnua! pay rolls for the year 1936, 2 per cent, in 1937, and 3 per cent, thereafter to finance unemployment pension systems. Offsets will he permitted for contributions for state unemployment compensation systems. Disbursements to persons thrown out of work will be made under state unemployment pension plans, although the pension fund will be invested and nkndled by the secretary of the treasury. The reason for the increasing attention which business is giving to the social security law became apparent at a recent national convention of a trade group in the capital Dne speaker reported that he had igured his social security taxes .vould he double the amount of his present federal taxes. Some officials of the board have >een concentrating upon the non:pntribulory state old-age pension 'eatures of the legislation. The board must approve state pension systems before the states can lualify for federal erants of sif* n nonth for'each needy aged individual md it soon will begin deciding which itates. inng my little preface, or introducion, as you prefer to call it, to a dose promising to continue this "incresting" column next week.
