SELF TAXATION

The following splendid article
is taken from an exchange and is
we'll worth reading at this time:
People in general seem to enjoy
growing about taxes. This sub
ject makes a theme for converse
tion in the family. 1t inspires the
loungers in the corner grocery,
and it puts life into many polit-
ical campaign. Why, our fore
fathers actually plunged into
rebellion, fought seven years,
and finally won our national indie
pendence from Great Britain, on a
question of taxes. If you want to
see a hot" town meeting in a back
country township, just propose an
extra tax for some new road and a
bridge.
And yet there is one sort of tax
that is not grumbled at. That is
to say, the taxpayers themselves
rarely denounce it or dispute it.
They keep on paying it serenely
all their lives unless they tumble
into the poor house. Their friends
and relatives often scold about it,
but they, while they feel its pres
sure, 90 right on paying out.
Even the poor men keep these pays
ments up when all others are cut
off.
We refer to the tax which men
pay to passion and appetite. The
sums thus expended every year
say for tobacco and liquors only
are stupendous. This sort of tax
paying begins early in life, when
the youngster gets into the habit
of treating himself to cider, beer,
ale, porter, whskey, a cigarette or
a cigar. After bit he can't get
along without it." and SO he binds
himself to pay taxes to it all his
life. He growls about his road
tax when he grows up, his school
tax, and his church tax, but his
self-indulgence tax he passes out
without a murmer, even though it
may have made him a poor man.
Sometimes he is conscious of it,
but he has become slave to his
habits and cannot free himself.
The socialists do a great deal of
growing about the burdens put by
capital upon the poor. The worst
burden poverty has to bear is the
tax which it voluntarily pays to
appetite and passion.

talk or fears are Obstructive to
good results in preparations.
We'hear it now among the far
mers. They tell US that they will
be unable to grow full crops this
year, because of SO many young
men being called into service. The
man power of the farm has never
been put to a test, especially in
the south, and with a will and a
determination much more can be
done than is now thought possible.
A more optimistic spirit, and a
greater determination to do, in
spite OF conditions, will overcome
many of the difficulties along this
line.
We should sake a more optimis-
tic view of the situation, and as
sorting the true American man
hood that should be in our make
up, get busy and do everything in
our power to aid the war prepare
tions and to meet the conditions
that confront Us.

Card Of Thanks

Death came into our home
on Monday, February IS, 1918,
and took from US our loving seven
year-old daughter, Eva Anderson.
1t seems to us that our home is
wrecked and ruined, but we trust
in Him who heals all troubles,
to deliver US from this state of
trouble. We have the assurance
that our loss is her eternal gain.
We want to assure our friends and
neighbors that words cannot ex-
press our sincere thanks and APP
probation for their services dur
ing these hours of trouble.

OPTIMISM NEEDED

The more we hear and read
about the war situation and the
conditions Of the country, growing
out of war preparations, the more
we are lead to conclude that we
are entirely too pesimistic on the
question. It looks too much like
we are acting alone through fear
and not with a consciousness of
our power and ability to bring the
war to a victorious end when our
resources are fully modified and
put 10 action. This pesimistic

GERMAN METHODS

The events that have recently
occurred in Russia, in her dealings
with Germany, gives proof of two
things, first, that Russia is incapa-
BILE, 10 her disorganized condition,
of intelligent self-government, and
second, that Germany has under
gone no change in her imperialis-
tic ideas and that there will be no
change until the kaiser is crushed.
In the negotiations the Russian
people have lost everything, in
Guiding honor. They allowed
themselves tie be betrayed by their
own leaders. If her leaders had
been sincere, however, Russia
would still have been ruined the
moment she trusted Germany's
faith and pledges, and SO will any
other nation be ruined that trusts
Germany to do anything she
pledges herself to do.
Prussianism and military autoc-
racy must be completely crushed
before any safe peace negotiations
with Germany can be entered into
or lasting peace established.

SPENDfHRlFT AMERICA

SPENDfHRlFT AMERICA
Out of the World War, Thrift
is being born.
Spendthrift America has begun
to save.
Thrift certificates, the new gov
eminent saving plan, represents
the last word in saving.
People who never before had at
any one time enough money for a
Liberty bond. can now become in
Vestors in the equivalent of gilt
edged big-paying bonds.
As an Investment those certifi-
Gates are in class by themselves.
As an expression of patriotism
is it equally desirable, for the dol
lars that are thus turned over to
government will be sent forth to
fight the battle of Democracy
against Autocracy; of Civilization
against Militarism.
The people Of the United States
whoare unable to fight; who are
~
6nable to work behind the fight
ing men and who lack money With
which to buy Liberty bonds, can
do no more patriotic service than
buy Thrift stamps and War Say
ings stamps.

Red Cross News

The Huntingdon Red Cross chap
ter made another large shipment
of hospital supplies, for our woun-
ded boys in France, last Saturday.
The shipment weighed $50 pounds,
and consisted of the following:
One hundred and eighty-fve
feather comfort pillows, 165 cot
ton comfort pillows, 80 hospital
bed shirts, % winter pajamas
and rs extra pillow slips. The
shipment was sent by express to
division headquarters at Atlanta,
where it will be inspected and re-
packed in overseas shipping cases,
and forwarded to an American hos
pital in France. The Irrelevant
auxiliary had a good share in mak-
ing up this large shipment. They
were asked by Mr.. NOEL to furn-
ish $50 comfort pillows for this
shipment, and they sent 252. TIE
Irrelevant ladies are enthusiastic,
and doing splendid work. Some
days the workroom is too small to
seat the number anxious to work.
DR.. j. G. Holmes is the efficient
chairman of this live auxiliary, and
JEFF j. Blanks it the treasurer.
The Hollow Rock auxiliary is
also doing splendid work, and fur.
nished their part of comfort pill
lows for last Saturdays shipment,
They will have a good lot of hos
pital bandages ready for shipment
next week. They have a splendid
workroom and are very enthusias-
tic in the work.
The need of comfort pillows is
growing daily, as the number of
wounded boys in France increases,
and Mr.. NOEL, chairman of Hunt
ingdon chapter, has asked for
large number of these pillows to
be made and forwarded to Hunt
ingdon by March II. Irrelevant
is asked for $50; Hollow Rock,
100; Clarksburg, so; Westport,
so, Yuma, so; Buena Vista, so;
Vale, so; Atwood, so; McLe-
moresyille, so; Rosser, so. Every
public school in Carroll county is
also asked to present this feature
of Red Cross work to the pupils,
and secure as many pillows as pos
sible by March 10.
To the Young Ladies of Carroll
County: Last month each one of
you was asked to make and for
ward to Red Cross headquarters
at Huntingdon, at least one COM
fort pillow. A number responded
to this distress call, but a large
number did not. We again ex-
tend this urgent appeal to each of
you to make one pillow BY March
10, We believe you will.
The regular monthly meeting of
Huntingdon chapter will be held
at the workroom tonight (Thurs-
day. at 1870, and all members, in
Guiding the executive committee,
are urged to attend, as much i'm
portant business will be transacted.

A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE

The large flour mill adjoining the
l.. & y. Depot and owned by Mr..
Andrew Isaacs, was burned 10 the
ground on Monday, in one of the
most destructive fires that ever oc-
CURED in Berea.
The blaze was discovered about
1890. and is supposed to have
started from a spark dropped at the
furnace door. In response 10 the
alarm whistle, a large crowd of men
gathered and worked heroically TO
subdue the flames, but the fire had
gained such rapid Roadway IL was
impossible to do more than prevent
the spread Of the blaze. The city
water supply was utterly made
quate for such an emergency. aud
only the most strenuous efforts on
the part Of the flre-nghters saved
the Spoke Factory and the greater
portion of the stock which adioined
the burning building
II is especially regretable that Mr..
Isaacs carried no Insurance., and his
loss will likely reach 10000. In ad-
dition to the loss Of his mill. Mr..
Isaacs had 2,OOO bushels Of wheat
in stock, which was all destroyed,
excepting as portion Of it has been
gathered up and sold for chicken
feed.
Mr.. Isaacs is one Of Berea's in
and respected citizens, and
his misfortune is sincerely regretted
by all his fellow townsmen.
The loss at the Spoke Factory is
largely covered by insurance.
