TRY THIS OVER ON

Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. 25.-Harken
to the wall of this taxpayer, who has
written Collector of Internal Revenue
Pickering thus:
"There need be little trouble to
figure your income tax. In the first
place it may be worked out by alge-
bra, astronomy, trigonometry or syn
tax and then your answer may be cor
rect and it may not. If your income
is S2,40O year and you have a dia-
mond ring and an automobile, and
are married to brunei girl 26 years
old, you take the amount of your in
come and add your personal property,
subtract your street number, multi
ply by your wife's height and divide
by your telephone number.
'If you have a child in your fam
lily you subtract 5000 from your in
come, add the amount of your person
al property, multiply by your waist
measure, subtract the size of your
collar and your childs age, multiply
by the amount you have given the
church during the year and divide by
the number of your automobile Ii
cense tag. If there is a second child
you deduct s400 from your income,
add the weight and age of the child,
divide by the size of your hat and
subtract the weight Of your mother
in-law. After you get it all figured
out you won't have to pay any taxes
of any name or nature. for they will
have you in the BOBBY hatch, strapped
down."

THE REo.cRoss NURSE

AinoSt liiHhcoidteiy, upon LIS hrTi-
val of Miss Atwell, the Red-Cross
nurse, in Gunnison, the "fiu" epidemic
broke out.
This caused the Red Cross Chapter
to modify its original plans of send
ing Miss Atwell to outlying school
districts in an educational campaign.
Instead, she was retained as an emer-
gency nurse to visit places where
sickness was reported and often to
do actual nursing where the cases
We're especially serious
This arrangement has proved the
more necessary, since it has been
quite impossible to secure other
trained nurses from Salida, Denver,
If we could have secured help, as we
did last year, Miss Atwell might
have gone on with the educational
work.
Miss Atwell has retained her head
quarters in the town of Gunnison be-
cause outlying communities custom
arily call Gunnison when they need
help. People needing assistance and
putting in calls have not been turned
down. The nurse has visited Jacks
Cabin, Taylor Canon, Baldwin, and
every other place from which call
has come in No one has been re-
fused Besides this, the Red Cross
has sent practical nurses and helpers
To1o Po1l lxlyir nd
every other place from which sickness
has been reported. If anyone has
been neglected, it is because of fall
ure to make the case known.
There seems to have been some
misunderstanding on the part Of the
places that were expecting the nurse
to come for school visiting and ed
ucational work. The Red Cross is
sorry that the original program could
not be carried out; but it believes
that you will pardon the seeming ne
glect when you stop to consider that
the shortage of help made it posi-
lively impossible for the nurse to do
otherwise than try to get to all the
severe cases of influenza and pneu-
m6nia, regardless of where they were.
Unfortunately many of the worst
cases were in very out-of-the-way
places. They were also quite numer-
GUS In Gunnison where there are so
many young people away from homo.
1t is hoped now that the epidemic
has about spent itself. II 90. the
nurse will soon start out on the edu-
cational work that she first had in
tended, and she will visit first, the
have neglected.
Chsrsss fer NsssisS
During the epidemic the Red Cross
is making no charges for the visits
Of the nurse. In those cases where
the nurse has sat up nights or put in
long periods Of time, the official rate
is $3.50 per night; but this will not
be collected from anybody. However,
people who arc able to pay and who
insist upon paying at the regular rate.
may make contribution to the Red
Cross, and their contribution will not
be refused.
People all over the county have
contributed generously to the sup
port Of the Red Cross work, and now
it is time that n little Of the money
were coming back to them. This is
the reason why no bills will be sub
mitted and no collections made.

II. m.~l,i.tio. Of . Ming

One Of the most dramatic incidents
in Papal history was the extreme hu-
initiation of Henry w, the German
king, by Pope Gregory VII. 1t was
in the period, when the papal mon
archy was most absolutely supreme.
Gregory VII was in private life, Hill
debrand, the most consumate states
man in the long line of popes. He
and Henry had broken over some mat
ters Of administration. In pique,
Henry persuaded Council Of German
Bishops to depose Gregory. Their
meeting was at Worms ip 1076. Hill
debrand retaliated with the dread
sentence of accommodation
The German princes turned against
their ruler, and invited the Pope to
come to Augsburg to decide Henry's
claim to the throne. The king had to
yield, and as suppliant went to meet
the Pope. He found him at Cahossa,
fortified castle in northern Tuscany.
1t was winter,-Jaunary 25-27. Yet
the German king had to stand those
three days "before the closed door,
barefoot and in the coarse garments
of pilgrim and a penitent, and even
then Gregory was induced only by the
approximations OF his influential COM
panions to admit the Inundated
ruler"
