WHERE BRAIN AND BRAWN TELL

In the waving wheat fields of Okla homa and northern Texas an army of men of all ages, conditions and pros poets in life are gathering just now for the harvest trek that will end in August in Manitoba, Alberta and Sas- katchewan. College boys bent on earning money to carry them through the next college year,-future doc tors, lawyers, statesmen and million aires some of them may be-will toll on terms of equality with the horny handed sons of the farm and profes- sional hoboes who desire only to ac- cumulate the price of glorious bust From Oklahoma, where the harvest is now beginning, the thous- ands of hands" will work gradually northward. June will find the ma
 jority of them in Kansas, and in July they will invade Nebraska, Iowa, southern Minnesota and other central States.

they are made of Many of them,
 discouraged by the long hours and the
 hard work, will give up in disgust.
 Others made of sterner material will spit on their blistered hands, grit their teeth, resolve to do or die, and stick it out. As the days pass their palms will grow harder, their muscles firmer and their toll easier. Their diges- tions and appetites will improve. Af- ter the grilling toll of the day fol- lowed by nasty ablutions in tin pan, they will fall upon the yellow-legged chickens, baked spuds, garden "sass'' and other grub with an unappeas- able voraciousness that would have been disgusting few months before. They will cross the finish-line in West ern Canada as bronzed, hearty and healthy youngsters. If they are col lege students, the temporary substi- tut1on of physical toll in the open air for brain work will find their minds all the more receptive, rested and ready to receive nourishment. More over, if they have been thrifty, they will hold receipts for a goodly num- Der of money orders drawn on the postoffice of their college town. Bread is not the only product of the wheat fields. It also makes men.

VICTORIA DAY PASSING

While Englishmen will always re- were the memory of the gentle Queen who so long ruled over the destinies of the Empire, it is likely that to-day will witness the last general observ- ance of Victoria Day. Queen Victoria was born May 24, 1919, and succeed ed her uncle, William w., in June 1897. In 1888 the birthday of the young Queen received but passing at- tention, as the country was engrossed with preparations for the coronation pageantry in June of that year. In 1889 began the annual observance of the Queens birthday, which, in the course of time, became a great nation al holiday, celebrated throughout the vast empire on which the sun never sets. When Edward succeeded the Queen upon the death of the latter in 1901, Victoria Day had become an

Edwards birthday was November g, time of the year not favorable to outdoor pastimes, pa rades and merrymaking. The birth day of King George, however, falls on the third of June, when the English season is at it's height, and it is prob
 able that that date will become the great holiday of the Empire. To-day will be a general public holiday throughout Canada, as the Dominion Parliament has not changed the stat ute. At the next session, however, legislation making the third of June statutory holiday is likely to be passed.

HARTFORD FOLLOWS
 BRIDGEPORT'S EXAMPLE
Founded 179O.

Mayor Louis R. Cheney, Republican, of Hartford, has appointed two per- sonal tax collectors, thus marking the abandonment of HartfOrd's eff fort to collect the poll tax through the regular channels. For many years the General Assembly has tried to submit the men of the state 70 the unscientific and costly personal tax, without succeeding. Never have Connecticut communities elected officers willing to make the collec- tions. As a last resort the General Assembly determined to authorize the appointment of personal tax collectors to garner in the unpopular tax sheaves Bridgeport was one of the first cities to avail itself of the act, and the personal tax has been more generally cenected here than in any otherIcity. ar y;Tr9 soFlFs
 If the tax is to exist the per- sonal tax collector is a necessity.
 But the best thing to do with the td4 1B tO 1eQedI It IS VS6aIlOuS costly and labor maker, and for these qualities is thoroughly denounc- ed by every authoritative writer on economics.
 To collect an ordinary tax costs perA nc more than one or two per cent but to collect the poll tax costs from twenty to fifty per cent. of the entire intake.
 The ordinary methods of taxation impose the minimum of labor on the Individuals composing the community. but the poll tax occupies for it's pay- ment some portion of the time of majority of the males. But the prime objection to the tax is that the people of Connecticut do not want fs,, their representatives at Hartford to the contrary notwithstanding.

 "One day when Judge, Gary was trying case he was much annoyed by a young man in the back of the room who kept moving about, shift ing chairs and pozing into corners Finally the judge stopped the hearing and said: Young man, you are dis turbing the court by the noise you are making. What excuse have you to offer for your conduct?'
 Why, judge, said the young man, I've lost my Overcoat.'
 That's no excuse retorted the judge. People often lose whole suits in here without making half the dis tnrbance. .-Chicago Tribune.
