We notice that the main point of
a speech by Gov. Cooper few days
ago was to tell the Parent-Teachers
association that the school should be
made the community center, and all
the community interests should be
closely connected with the school
community. That is the doctrine we
preached in Newberry county some
ten years ago when we were super
intendent of education, and we be-
lieve that we were instrumental in
helping a lot of people discover the
school house. And in awakening an
interest in the schools of ,the county.
We are glad to have the endorsement
of Gov. Cooper. 1t is the one great
question before the people today, the
school mouse and the right sort of
teacher in the school house.

of Supreme Court.

Washington, March 17.-1ncome
and excess profit taxes can not be
reduced until after 1922, Secretary
Houston today wrote the house ways
and means committee urging an i'm
mediate simplifcation of these taxes
and substitution of fiat tax on ex-
cess profits instead of the graduated
rates of 20 to 40 per cent.
''Only very moderate reductions
may be in the calendar year of
1922" the secretary wrote. Under
the plan of fiat tax the latter stated,
''it would be impossible to adopt a
declining rate, say of 25 ner cent.
for the first year in which the change
is in operation, 20 per cent. for the
second year and Is per cent. there
after.
With Gravest. Apprehension.
'Unless action is taken at the pres
ent session of congress-" Mr.. Hous
tion said: Existing taxes must con-
tinue to be collected on the basis of
the present law until the close of the
calendar year, 1922. Such condi-
tion," he wrote, ''is contemplated

Houston added, however, that the ul-
innate loss would be only s25, 5,000,-
900 as much of the original loss
would be eegained through the sale
of stocks and subsequent taxes on
them. The secretary estimated that
S35,0OO,0O0 collected in 1913 would
have to be refunded and S70,000,000
would be lost in 1919 taxes.

Aggregate losses for 1918 and

adding that the need for immediate
legislation to meet this situation
arose mot so much from the pos,
sibIe loss of revenue as from obvious
undersirability of permitting $500

Simply get an ounce of Othine-

and a few applications should show
you how easy it is to rid yourself of
the homely freckles and get a beauti-

one ounce needed for the worst case.

Rumors Rife of
New Railroad
to Monmouth

Monmouth, Aug. 13.-Rumors are
rife regarding another railroad be-
tween here and Independence. 1t is
eiad that the Valley e. Siletz is me-
gotiatin gfor the road from Airlie to
Monmouth with a view of extending
1t to Independence. Another report
is that the S. p. will build the road
over the old right of way purchased
some time ago from the Independ-
ence g. Monmouth Railway Co. This
road was sold more than year ago
and the rails taken up. The road ged
is good for the most part and the s.
p. may yet build an electric electric
road between the two cities.
Wants Referendum
Orville Butler, pioneer citizen
who began voting in Polk county
about the time Monmouth sprang In
to existence. has suggested unique
plan to settle the prevailing highway
controversy, and intimates that he
would like to see the question placed
on the ballot at thc coming general
election.
IF 1t Is necessary to build eight
miles Of paved road at cost of $25
900 mile" said Mr.. Butler, sin or
der to get the county seat located on
the highway, 1t would be cheaper to
move the county seat to the high
way"
While this may seem like an idle
statement, yet 1t is not altogether
improbable. In the event that such
thing would ever happen it wound
likely mean the removal of the seat
to Monmouth.
