The Democratic "War Tax"

Fortunately for this country the
gag rule" in use by the administra-
ton on Congress, cannot gag the
voters. Next month the people have
opportunity to pass upon the work as
well as the methods. The latest spec
linen of high-handed procedure is the
100000, 900 war tax" on the people,
which was driven through Congress
under orders from the White House,
and without opportunity for represen-
tatives of the people to be heard
Why should the $1OOoOO,o0O tax the
Democrats are about to foist on the
people be called a war taxi" This
country is at war with no nation on
earth We are not mixed up in the
terrible European conflict at all. The
truth is, the Democrats proposed this
tax to cover their own gross extrava-
gance of the peoples money. The tax
ought to be termed an urgent def
cheney" tax since its main purpose is
cy in revenue resulting from the DEM
ocratic tariff law.
When in 1898, this country went to
war in just cause and money was
needed to put our military forces on
a fighting footing, a war tax was pro-
posed. Oscar Underwood, now Demo-
cratic leader of the House, then a
Congressman, was against the tax.
He said. this tax will fall almost en-
tirely on the hard working and indus
trious artisans, merchants, mechanics,
farmers and professional men Of the
country. but not on idle wealth that
is protected. but never made to pay
for the benefits received. 1 know its
features are partisan and unjust they
will Cypress the masses of the people!
They are unnecessary and the same
amount of revenue could be raised
from sources that would equalize the
burdens of taxation and not be felt |
by the people"
Now, our country is at peace with all /
the world, yet the Democrats, led by |
Mr.. Underwood. propose an alleged |
war tax" and under his leadership |
impose gag rule cutting off debate |
and forcing the fictitious war meas
ure through the House of Represen- |
tatives. Will not the average man see
the inconsistency of the Democratic |
leader and his party?

will penetrate the knotty problems of
arithmetic as well as those of the
woodpile and will untangle the intrica-
cies of foreign language or trans
form disordered kitchen, better
than sullen one. The CHEEKY dispo-
sition is likely to be part of the VIC
torious character. Popularity may not
be very high recommendation; but,
other things being equal, 1t is better to
be popular than grouchy. The
grouchy person is most woefully han
dicapped. and must needs have many
excellent qualities before he can hope
to rise to equally high esteem with his
less gifted but more cheerful COM
rades.
Real politeness is the kindly express
sion of a kindly intent. Immature and
politeness are antagonistic and cannot
dwell together for long in the same
individual. Politeness in it's genuine
essence contributes toward the we'll
being of all, even to long life; while
impoliteness and irascible temper may
shorten life.
One of the more recent subjects of
extreme interest engaging the earnest

and early adult life, while general con-

ious habits Of eating. drinking, smok-

combined with the natural involu-

pressure rises. So there has come In

Denyise Cartier is a 13-year-old girl.
She went out walking with her father in

complishment-the science of aviation,
experiments in which have set all man

The two French folk gazed in wonder and

Then something happened. A bomb

Bad Temper shortens Life.

A man whom the editor of this
paper has known from primer days in
school, of naturally nervous tempera-
ment and who used to fly off the
handle" on slight provocation, has
mastered himself in wonderful man
ner. The chief tenets of his religion
are know thyselfr and control thy
self" He does not allow himself to
become angry and when an incident
disturbs his mental serenity. his first
duty Is to dismiss it from his mind.
He does not wait for it to wear away;
he methodically sets about getting rid
OF it. He is benefting mentally and
physically by this personal rule of life,
and at an age when he would naturally
be losing ground under the pressure Of
earlier years.
The case of this gentleman is
brought forcefully to mind by an inter-
esting article by DR.. Albert S. Barnes
in The Mothers Magazine. He de-
clares that ill-temper is contagious,
and, by the same token, so is kindn-
ness. Either may become habituaI.
He says:
The child may acquire the habit of
pouting. frowning. stamping it's foot,
crying or giving expression to unkind
and angry words when reprimanded or
when things go wrong His mental
irritabiiity unfavorably affects his
vasomotor system, and his blood YES
sells. being overworked, become pre-
inaturely aged. The same child may,
with wise teaching and a real desire
for seif-improvement, acquire a habit
Of smiling self-control under the same
distressing provocations. In this case
his vascular system is protected from
oyerstrafn and retains it's youthful
character for a longer time. After
awhile tho behavior becomes very
largely a matter OF habit.

Let this be distinctly understood. The

children and old men. In thousand
years the German nation cannot recover
from the stigma of Sundays deed.
If the German Government wishes to
