Georgetown's Majority

Afraid they would get rusty and miss
something good the members of the
Paris Bowling League, who could not
be satisfied with remaining inactive,
scratched up game Tuesday night
with the Curtis Henry team, winners
of the 1917 championship in the
League race and took them into camp
TO the tune of 81 pins. The winning
team was gotten together by Tom
Funk and christened "Funk's Big
Five" While no championship scores
we're made, both teams proved they
had their lamps trimmed, the scores
ranging close to the 200 mark several
times.
For the Funk team Funk led with
a score of 1879 in the second game,
Thomas following for second place
with 1873. Other scores ranged from
ia to 1874 For the Champs" Henry
led with 1877 in the third game, and
Shankland second, with 1873 in the
second game. Other individual scores
ranged from 12S TO 1S1. The boys all
felt happy in being In the game again,
and other contests may follow soon.
The score follows:

WE'RE NOT so WORSE.

While the agitation for better streets
in Paris is a most excellent thing, and
may eventually lead to improvements
Of a substantial nature, we may con-
graduate ourselves that the streets are
better than in some towns nearby.
Last week the Cynthiana Democrat,
in commenting on the mass-meeting
held here, said Paris people ought to
come to Cynthiana and see some
streets that were really bad ones.
Now comes the Danville Messenger
with the following:
1.-The Women's Clubs at Paris are
agitating the construction of good
streets. II they will come and see
Danville's poor excuse for streets
they will be willing to put up with
what they now have"
Let us return thanks!

DON'T CALL 1T A "wEEK."

After FIVE years of effort to induce
the public to differentiate it's real
CAMPAIGNS from the ordinary an!
odius clean up week or, worse yet,
the "day," so redolent of "the annual
bath" and so generally derided By
the press as such, the National Clean
Up and Paint Up Campaign Bureau
is ever willing party to any such
day or week"
The Bureau has always insisted up
on real campaigns, TO continue indef
nitely, though it suggests an open
ing week. and a six-day program, tn
give directions and impetus to half
dozen leading features of the dozen
or score of definite and different
things that, under its plans, are un-
dertaken for permanent and visible
results.
| Hardly any of these things, except
street and alley cleaning, can be
more than fairly started in six days;
though if the advertising centers pub
lie interest in a week" except as an
Opening Week, that interest and adj
vertising and all the work will END
at the end of the week"
The local campaign leaders in one
big city have the right idea, as shown
in the name they adopted and under
which something is doing every
month in the year, under auspices O.
the "St. Louis Continuous Clean Up
and Paint Up Campaign Associ'
alton"
There is no National Clean Up
and Paint Up Week" and no nation
al or common date for the Opening
Week" of these local campaigns. In
every week of the year, North or
South, these campaigns are opening,
and continuing; though about So per
cent of them are opened or re-opened
in April and May. most Of the others
being opened in the fall, to get ready
for the indoor months" and for Home
Coming Festivals, etc.; and in the
early winter, especially in the South
and it's winter resort regions. Each
community everywhere fixes its own
opening dates.

The United States is surely going
on the water wagon.
Whether It will stay there longer
than the period Of the war depends
on how the nation likes the expc.
rience. but a careful canvass of the
entire membership of both houses Of
congress this week demonstrated
positively that the dry" element is

Even the "wets" admit that only
some revolutionary plan. which like
the cure for the submarine menace,
yet to be devised. can prevent the alb
solute elimination of alcohol as a
factor in Americas national life by
the present congress.
A big step toward national prohi-
bition was taken the fore part of this
week when the senate judiciary COM
mittee reported out the Sheppard
prohibition bill with the recommend
alton that it be passed by the senate.
The bill, a joint resolution propos-

"The manufacture. sale or trans

.FAvORS LARGE. TAX
ON WEALTHY CLASS
HOUSE LEADER, ANGERED BY
SENATE, DECLARES RICH MUST
PAY FOR WAR.

The rich must do a big "bit'' in
this war.
This 10 the mandate Of Representa-
tive Kitchin, Democratic floor leader
Of the house. who, angered at the
senate tendency to free the wealthy
from tar burdens, 10 preparing to
stage . parliamentary riot in the
house.
Kitchin has two sore spots about
the senate tactics-drst. that the
poor are getting the short end of the
upper house finance committees deal.
and. second, that the upper house ap-
parently is trying to absorbe some Of
the lower house prerogatives as to
originating finance legislation. az
II tho senate provisions relieving
the rich still stand, or II the senate
substitutes measure Of its own for
1.-THE house bill, Kitchin will oppose
even entering a conference with SEN
ators.
II this fails, Kitchin will kick over
the traces in conference and take his
fight back to the house floor. where
his followers will doubtless give
short shrift to the poor mans taxes.
Some liberal senators. too. share
Kitchin's idea that the rich man
should stand the brunt of the money
burden, especially as the poor man
will do the bulk of the fighting.
Here are the specific things to
which the anti-wealth crowd OBJ
jects:
Reduction of levies Of wealth and
income and increase OF the amounts
to be obtained by sale Of bonds. thus
making the poor man do the lighting
and bear a tax load in later years.
Tender treatment Of great. watered
corporations, who practically dodge
added taxes, while such corporations
as are taxed can pass 1t on to the
ultimate consumer-the poor man.
Taxation of the poor mans neces-
stiles. such as coffee, tea, cocoa,
sugar and proprietary medicines,
while the rich mans jewelry and the
like go unscathed.
Escape of munitions makers with
bloated incomes from taxation, while
athletic goods. with which the poor
man may raise his physical fitness,
are taxed.
The United States Chamber OF
Commerce announced this week that
it's membership favor raising one.
third Of the total $1,S0O.00O.00O rev
enue from increased income taxes
and excess profits, along with at least
$5OO.OOO.0OO on luxuries. many OF
which have escaped in the senate.
The first of the fights will start in
the senate itself the last of this week
when the revenue bill Is expected
from committee. Western senators
will battle to restore the house sur
tax on swollen incomes and will try
to scotch the proposed consumption
levies. It will probably take two Of
three weeks to pass the bill in the
! upper house and there is no telling
what tn provisions will b when 4
gets through. -..,

Number Of ''Quitters" Unknown.
