OTHERS^ViEWS A NOTEWORTHY COMMUNION SERVICE To ithe Editor: On Sunday, December 3rd, I was privileged through the courtesy of a friend to attend service at Plank Chapel my home church. The entire service was fine and deeply spiritual but the special feature that warmed my heart was the manner in which the communion service was conducted. It was the first time I’d seen it after this fashion but it was all so right and proper. Plank Chapel, of long history, is notably for the attention that is paid to the youth of the con gregation as for example, as the classes reassemble in’the auditorium alter Church School the primary, Junior, and Intermediates march to reserved seats on one side of the ■church, filling about a third of the left section; the Seniors and Young Peo ple’s division largely make up the choir. When communicants were invited ‘a the Lord’s Table, those members of the church from primary, and Jun ior departments came first to the ai itiar, next the Intermediates and Sen iors; Young People’s division next; M ' 0 n followed the adults and visitors.

South Holds Answer For Farm Puzzle (Continued from Page One.) quotas are figured on the basis of the total crop and are divided, first, among the states, next among the counties, finally among the farmers. Those who plant or produce more than their quotas will be taxed on che amount they sell outside the quotas, If the producers say "No,” they may plant and sell all they wish. The price will be left to take care of itself in a market that already has swaying surpluses. Cotton farmers would gev no loans. Benefits would be trimmed for rice and tobacco growers. U. S.

Rainey of Illi nois, speaker of the House of Repre sentatives a few years ago, was per haps the foremost taxation authority we ever had. ‘‘You can,” he often told me, “legislate anything by taxation, without shooting at it directly.” Medical Taxation. ~ One day Rainey went on to tell me: “In my day on the House Ways and Means Committee, the question of phosphorous matches came up. “The workers in phosphorous match factories assimilated the phosphorous into their systems. It resulted in a dis ease called ‘phossy jaw.’ The bone rot ted. It was terrible. The match-mak ers said they couldn’t help it no ‘phossy jaw.’ no matches. Well, we slapped an almost prohibitive tax on- | to phosphorous matches. The makers i blamed soon invented a new kind of ! matches that didn’t cause ‘phossy jaw’.” * ! Now, there was a case were puni tive taxation was beneficial. But, broadly speaking, its benefits are doubtful. Former Speaker Rainey didn’t con- j tend that all taxation is good. He only argued that you can do anything with it. School Recommendations Presented By Commission! <Continued from Page One.) special legislative enactment. -12.
