The Government is
20 Partner i'm the
Brewing Industry

THE partnership of our Government and the
4 Brewing Industry was entered into during the
Civil War for the purpose of increasing war
revenues The bill creating this partnership was
signed by President Lincoln with the distinct
understanding that the measure would be repealed
as soon as war conditions justified it's repeal.
AS matter of fact the Brewers of America
voluntarily rendered the Government the sum of
SO cents per barrel on every barrel of beer brewed
This was done by the Brewers in spirit of loyalty
fairness and justice-a willingness to bear their full
share of the heavy war revenues.
The United States Government accepted the
Brewers offer with the understanding that it was
but a temporary relief measure which, in the
opinion of Lincoln, would be repealed as soon as
conditions justified its repeal
No But that which was voluntarily rendered to the
Government contribution and was accepted
as such-has since been imposed as a permanent
tax. Not only that but the tax has been doubled
and tripled. The beer tax was so cents barrel
for many years after the Civil War. The normal
tax later increased to 90 and at the begin
ming of the Spanish-Amercan war in 1898, the tax
was jumped to $500 per barrel.
After the war was over, the normal tax of
$100 prevailed until 1914 when the Emergency
act raised the tax to $3.50 per barrel-and every
Brewery in America is paying that sum to the
Government now.
. Can one partner in a business take
atOay his partners share Without just
compensation? Certainly not!
IF you were in business with another and you
could not agree, you would buy out your partner,
or he would buy you out, paying fair price for
the business. There would be no corltfscation-no
taking the partners property without fair or just
payment therefore. Such procedure would be
robbery.
In fairness or justice, then, can Government
be it National, or State or Municpal-take away
it's partners interest in business without fair and
just compensation?
When anyones property or business - his
source of income or livelihood is taken away or
destroyed by legislation an act of the voters
by your act, if you please-is not the one so
injured entitled to compensation for his loss?
You would not want your business destroyed
by legislation Without compensation would you be
a party to legislation that would deny the same
right to others?
Remember this
Compensation simply means
that fair payment shall be made for
aohate0er property is destroyed by the
cote Of the people,
Would you forcefu1y take anything that did
not belong to you without paying for it?
Think it over!

NOW THE LUMINOUS COLLAR
Genius Has Invented Coat With Phos-
phorescent Gross, TO Be Worn In
London's Darkened Streets.

BY the time the war has lasted for
80 years, only the very patient London
ers Will consent, whatever views the
police and old Count Zeppelin may hold
on the matter, to go on colllding with
one another and breaking leg after leg
and all the available collar bones.
We shall all want 10 light up, like
bicycles, and to follow the example OF
two Illuminated young ladies' who have
an eye to the times in which we live.
They were wearing n new line In
drop ADMINISTRATIONS collars. Most
Of us are, in this period, as Invisible as
an Ethiopian minstrel wearing mourn
Ing in a coal yard on foggy night.
The city genius has invented a collar
for women the tape In which glows a
brilliant purple, and the blacker the at
mosphere the stronger the light.
1t is a wonderful spectacle. When
representative arrived at the city Of
fee, the director, who has applied for a
patent for his collar and deserves it.
pulled down the blinds, and the two
lady clerks had apparently vanished In
the Maskelyne manner, only for crossed
bars of phosphorescent purple which
were the parts of their collars that had
been treated scientifically.
Even the laundryman, the inventor
claims, cannot remove the glow-worm
effect.
Certainly it would save me from col
llsion with passers-by. OF course n GER
tain amount of risk still remains, for
lamp post, a conservative creature,
will not step out of the way OF a collar.
Meanwhile, what about luminous
hats for men and luminous bootsi Can
nothing be done in luminous curb
stones?
II is obvious, however, that these
things will come and a man will be
able to hire himself out for the home
ward journey with such luminous de-
vices on his clothes as this:
Wear Splnks' Phosphor Halos and
Luminous Backing.
There seems not the slightest doubt
that the luminous collar is practical
and will be seen all over London.
But what effect will be produced on
the mind of a man going home from
an earnest evening at the club when he
meets luminous collar girls with rub
ber-heeled boots walking rapidly to-
ward him-well.- ll.--LondOn News.

PROCLAMATION

To the citizens of Chickasha:
May 9th, 7th and Sth has been set
apart by the women's organizations
as time for considering the needs Of
the infants Of the city Their purpose
is to fix the attention Of the people Of
Chickasha and Grady county on the
proper care of babies, particularly
during hot weather. 1t is hardly nee
essary for me to say that this program
seems to me a particularly fitting one
for the support of the citizens Of
Chickasha. Much has been accom-
plished within the last few years in
the saving and protecting of child life
throughout the country, and in the
present crisis we should exercise es-
pecial care in the bringing up Of the
future citizens Of our country.
Therefore l designate May 9Th, eth
and Sth as especial baby days in
Chickasha and I ask that the citizens
give their support to this movement

IN 1855 the shattered tribe was re-

its own chiefs by permission of the CO.

In the Southern Workman. The Pc
quots had, however, to pay an annual
tribute in wampum to the English.
BY 1853 their lands and numbers had
diminished considerably and In 1871
they were reported to number only 1911

LET BEST FRIENDS BE BOOKS
Much Comfort Found in Them for the
Lonely and One in the Evening
OF Life.

In passing days of our lives, when
the fires OF passion have been well
burned out; when we have come face
to face with the viclssltudes Of life and
find out that we have either won or
lost the battle, let our best friends be
books, observes a writer in the Mem
phis Commercial-Appeal.
We can commune with them so long
as we please, and when we are tired,
we can shut them up. This is more
than we can do with our friends Of the
human family.
When a man comes home at night
harassed and hacked with the wor-
rles Of life, he wants not only rest for
the body; he wants rest for his soul,
for his heart, for his mind.
The wife who hopes to develop in
the home a perfect atmosphere of con-
tent, will study her husbands moods
When he is worried when his mind is
a bit distraught and he desires mental
rest, he will read. There is wonder
full amount of consolation in our books.
Sometimes he may yield to light liter
ature. At other times he will place his
thoughts on more sincere and heavy
topics.
Our books are our real friends. It
does not make a bit of difference how
sick man may be, If he will have
read TO him chapter or two Of ''Pick-
wick Papers" he will smile. Read
your little one just page or two Of
Little Men" or of 'Little Women"
and see the rest that will spread over
his face, that beautiful expression Of
soothod pain. Let anyone who is in
trouble, and who has no friend, gath
er himself in solitude with a good
book. There is much consolation in
1t. 1t has that unexplainable source
Of relief It is like the tender touch
Of woman's hand on a parched and
fevered brow. It rests the mind, II
