ered r,. r only their church dues j A great many people think it
but also their civil taxes. The : not wrong or immoral to cheat
tithes were used to support the the government if they can do so
civil government as well as the
church government. In ancient
without being caught.
By-the-way, it is downright
times God seem3 to have treated i funny to see how much more
the obligation to pay taxes for
the support of civil government
on the same basis as the obliga
tion to pay for the support of the
church.
The time has come to list our
property for taxation. The law
requires that all the property we
have be put down on the list.
Are we going to list it all, or are
we going to leave some off the
list? The law requires that we
list the property at a fair valua
tion. Are we going to do this
or are we going to put it down at
rediculously low figures?
If you are going to conceal
careful people are in making
their tax returns to the United
States government than in mak
ing their tax returns to the state
government. The one essential
difference is that Uncle Sam has
detectives on the trail and a fail
ure to make proper returns to the
United States may get one into
seriousl trouble; whereas, the
state generally takes a man's
own statement of what he owns
subject to taxation.
The average man gets more for
the money he pavs as taxes than
he gets for a similar amount
spent in any other way. What

In the death of Mr. Wright the
church has lost one of its best,
most consecrated and truest min

of its best citizens.
Carrying out the expressed

One mother lost all her three

six months old. She equipped
the little ones with lifebelts after
the explosion and then kept them
with her in the water, all the
time waving her arms and shriek
ing for help. A boat finally saw
her, but when the rescue party
reached her the two elder chil
dren were dead.
All were taken into the boat,
howTever, but it wras soon seen
that the room occupied by the
dead would be required for the
living. The mother was brave
enough, to realize this.

quested the officer in charge of
the lifeboat. "Give them to me,

What Makes a Girl Popular.
Every girl has the perfectly
natural desire to be popular with
the other sex, and every girl is
interested in knowing the secret
of such popularity. Some girls
have the idea that the way to
have a good time is to break
away from the recognized rules
of social life. The free-and-easy,
reckless type of a girl may receive
a good deal of attention of a
certain kind, but it !3 safe to say
his life we do not want his ad
ministrators, his heirs, r.or the
Government under which he lived .
to ask us to fight, bleed and die
just because he got killed while
making his ventere. Monrca

A Few Facts.
Fire waste in the United States
is more destructive than wars,
floods, or tornadoes.
About two million dollars worth
o'f property is destroyed each
year through the careless use of
matches.
Twenty million dollars . has
been estimated as the loss caused
by fires in the United States
each year, which occurred be
cause rubbish was allowed to ac
cumulate in houses or business-places.
