of our cCUntry-the one who die

He had a father and mother, as
all children have, but his father
died when George was IL years
old and he was nurtured, cared
for and educated by his mother,
whom, we are tod, was no ordi-

child of his father. There were
others, and the Washington fam
lily was no insignificant family.

wealthy, but were people of high
ideals. 1t is said George inher-

gave current and influence to his
career in after life. She, we are
Informed, was aggressive and
practical and these traits George
inherited from his mother. Wash

the boys become true fathers of

ARE BEING KILLED
BY HUNTERS
Complaints have been made tc
the pigeon section of the signal
corps that carrier pigeons of the
racing-bomer type, being trained
throughout the United States for
communication service with the
American army, have been shot
by persons on hunting expedi-
tions. Because of the important
part carrier and homing rigeons
are playing in the war, and the
need for their breeding and de-
velopment in this country, the
War department has considera-
bly, expanded the pigeon section
of the signal corps. Homing pi-
geons constitute one of the most
effective means of communica-
tion in the army.
Any pigeon in the air may be a
carrier pigeon flying from a loft
under government supervision.
Its destruction may be a serious
loss to the American army. ANY
one coming into possession of pi-
geons labelled ~. S. .-18," ir-
dicating they are being trained
for army purposes, is requested
to report the fact at once to the
Office of the Chief Signal officer,
Land Division, Washington, D. C.

creased taxes or to the suggestion of a
bond issue, far greater than" any SO
far floated, to come probably in the
fall. But it would like to see the
taxes distributed in proportion to the
ability of the individual citizens to
bear them, which is the true principle
of taxation. BY heavily increasing
the taxes on profits made out of war
conditions, on large incomes and on
luxuries, this principle would be pre-
served.
In England there has been created
tax of 80 per cent on war profits.
Such tax gives abundant encourage
ment to production as it leaves a prof
it higher than industry was glad to
accept in nonwar business. Just what
percentage will be placed on profits
and incomes by congress is of course
not yet known, but if it is sufficiently
high to relieve the ordinary citizen
who is not making money out of war
conditions, people in general will be
satisfied.
The principles laid down have had
the advocacy of other leaders of
thought in this country. They are
right and it is to be hoped will be
embodied in whatever revenue bill
congress enacts.
