WHERE THE MONEY GOES TO

The Census Bureau states that the
average rate of taxation per capita
has increased from 1922 to slS.sl IN
ton wears Few would have suppos'
Oh that the raise was as large pro-
Dortion as this. 1t is the greatest
single advance in cost Of living
Other necessities have gone up, but
few of them are SO per cent more
than they were ten years ago.
Where has the money gone ot
course public work Is usually eXpen-
sive. The public officials idea OF
efficiency is often cajoling voters and
cnltiyating useful political friendship.
But these conditions existed equally
ten years ago, perhaps more so.
The American people within the
past few years have realized the in
adequacy of a great many public SER
vices. As better educated gener-
alton comes on, 1t demands still bet.
ter facilities. As humanitarian ideas
spread. more generous treatment OF
the unfortunate is called for. Good
roads, prison reform, charities, these
eat up money fast
No item of expense ever slips thru
more easily than school appropria-
ton. And in most places no depart
ment has advanced more rapidly in
cost. Teachers wages have risen
rapidly. Our people are no longer
content with home trained teachers :,
They want sanitary, healthful, venti-
lated, airy and sunshiny school build
ings. They ought to have them.
Increase In cost of government
seems inevitable. But there are
thousand petty wastes that could be
saved And many needless eXtrava-
gances could be cut off. The town
that was once satisfied with plain
unornamented school house now de-
mands stone or bun brick. A simpler
building would serve every purpose,
except that OF riyalling other towns.
A halt must b colled somewhere.
Handsome public buildings do not
draw in new residents as fast as
high tax rate drives them away.

WELL, WE'RE SORRY

We are asked to be sorrowful ov-
er the fate of Edouard de Reszke, the
great singer, who has been cleaned
out of his real estate investments by
the war and Is said to be living In
destitution i'm cellar in Poland.
What hours of pleasure the De Res.
IKE brothers gave in return for the
fortune of some S5,OOO,OO0 they laid
up!" says one newspaper.
All right we're sorry. We're sor-
ry for any man who has to live in
cellar. We're sorry for any man
whose real estate gigs back on him
$j,00O,000 worth, or S. worth. Happi.
ness depends much on living outside
of cellars and being successful with
real estate and We certainly want
everybody to be happy. But
Great musical talent is a divine
gift, like the blue of the skies, the
radiance Of the sunset, the beauty of
the flowers, the voices of birds, the
grandeur of the mountains, the inno-
cence of the child. Such a gift be-
longs not solely to its possessor but
somewhat to those who have 1t not
but can be made better and hap
pier by it. Put a fence about the
sunset and charge admission to view
1t, and you outrage humanity. Build
a high wall around your beautiful
flowers and you rob the world. Alb.
solutely commercialize any great spe.
cial gift from God, and you are miser
and traitor to your fellow men.
How many people who have to live
destitute in cellars ever heard the
beautiful voice of the De Reszkes,
which Melted them fortune of So
100000?
Shall We shed tears because a De
Reszke has made bad real estate
deal, when he has that of which prac-
tically all the rest of the world has
been denied? Still, We say, Poor
fellow! 1t Is such change from
$4,000 per night in grand hall, and

tributing worshipers, to Polish eel.

Iron Crown
Of LOmbard\

Washington, D. c., July 2S6-"Not
so very far from the battle swept
frontier that takes its way through
the Tyrolese Alps lies the Italian
town Of Monza, wherein one of the
most precious OF Italy's innumerable
historic relics Is preserved, the fam
Gus Iron Crown of Lombardy, &C.
cording to war primer just issued
by the National Geographic Society
at Washington. This iron crown came
to the Lombards and to its fame thru
the gift of Pope Gregory the Great
who presented 1t to a German prin-
cess as reward for converting her
consort to Christianity.
"Theodolinda was the daughter Of
Bavarian king. Reasons Of policy
brought about an arrangement Of her
marriage to Autharis, king of the
Lombards. Theodolinda was prin-
cess Of unusual charm and beauty;
and the story runs. Autharis who had
secretly Joined his embassy for the
negotiation of his marriage, met the
princess as a simple Lombard COURT
er, and the affection that grew up be-
tween them caused the princess to
oppose marriage with the unknown
king with all the power of her per.
suasion.
Mona the northern city, dates
its first important associations from
the coming of Theodolinda. The Ger
man queen won the devotion of her
subjects and upon the death of Au.
tharis they agreed to recognize as
their king any prince whom she may
choose for her second husband. Agi.
luf, Duke Of Turin was Theodolinda's
choice and he II was whom she con.
yerted to Christianity, whereby the
Lombard iron crown started upon it's
centuries career Of wonderful asso.
Citations with queens, kings and EN-.
perors.
Pope Gregory's gift was a fillet
OF iron which, according to plous ira
dition, was beaten out of one Of the
nails which fastened Jesus to the
cross. This relic was brought to
Rome by the Empress Helena, and
was guarded as a relic of marvellous
powers.
The iron fillet was used to crown
the German emperors kings of Italy.
1t was used at the coronatIons of
Charles V, Of Napoleon, and OF En-.
peror Ferdinand. It was this crown,
too, that was used as the symbol for
a united tally. and with the Lombard
iron circlet set in a gold crown OF
Bryzantlum workmanship. the king
Of Italy took his coronation oath and
announced the arrival OF a united
Italian people among the nations OF
Europe.
