Many hIaysville People In Poor Health
Without knowing the Cause.

There are scores Of people who
drag out a miserable existence with
out realizing the cause Of their suffer-
ing. Dry after day they are racked
with backache and headache; suffer
from nervousness, dizziness. weak
ness, languor and depression. Per-
haps the kidneys have fallen behind in
their work Of filtering the blood, and
that may be the root of the trouble.
Look to your kidneys, assist them In
their work-give them the help they
need. You can use no more highly

SCHOOL week
TO Be OBSERVED
DURING December
Federal Commissioner Of Education Is
Making Plans for General Cele-
bratiOn Of School Week
In Country.

Washington. School Week" will
be observed throughout the nation the
week Of December 5-11, as the Com
missioner of Education is designating
the first full week in December as
School Week." and is requesting the
governors and the chief school officers
OF the several states and territories to
take such action as may be necessary
to cause the people to use this week
in such way as will most effectively
disseminate among THE people ac-
curate information in regard to the
conditions and needs of the schools,
enhance appreciation of the value of
education, and create such interest as
will result in better opportunities for
education, and larger appropriations
for schools of all kinds and grades.
The Commissioner of Education
suggests that during this week the
public press should give more atten-
ton, and larger amount of space to
educational topics than usual, and
that on Sunday, December 5, ministers
should one or more of their church
services for emphasizing the impor-
lance Of education.
1t is further suggested that during
the week chambers OF commerce,
boards of trade, womens clubs, labor
unions, farmers unions, patriotic and
civic societies, Rotary Clubs, and XII
wanic Clubs, and other important or
CARNATIONS and associations should
devote one meeting to ad sicussion of
the needs of education in their states
and local communities, holding spe-
cial meeting II necessary, and that
motion picture houses should put on
their screens during School Week
facts and figures in regard to the i'm
portance of education, and the condi-
ito nand needs Of the schools.
Il
Universities, colleges, and normal
schools will be requested to devote
the convocatio nhours of the week to
a discussion of education in general,
an dof their own particular needs, and
1t is further suggested that all ele-
mentary and high school teachers
should devote one period each day Of
School Week" to this subject, telling
the children about education in their
local communities and in state and
Nation, how the schools are supported
and how much money 10 spent for
them, their economic, social and civic
value, and that during this weea
themes of essays and compositions In
elementary and high schools relate to
education.
Friday afternoon and evening of
School Week" has been designated
as the date on which community meet
ing in the interest of education should
be held at all school houses, both In
city and country, for the purpose Of
discussing the needs of the schools Of

the several communities, the means of
meeting these needs, and Of remedy
ing conditions.
State departments Of education have
been invited to provide information
through the public press and other
wise in regard to the conditions and
needs of the schools in the several
states, and city and county superin-
tendents have been invited to take
similar action and it is further sug-
gested that city and county superin-
tendents of schools hold meetings on
Friday or Saturday of the week pre-
ceding school Week" for the purpose
of discussing these problems among
themselves and making definite plans

whole country.
An effort will be made in December
to completely revise the income tax
laws, but because Of the lack of time
In that session 1t is doubtful If any
ne wtax bill can be enacted into law.
Both Democratic and Republican
leaders are very anxious to have the
tax laws, particularly the income tax,
revised from top to bottom Needless
to say every citizen concurs in this
desire, for the income tax, it cannot
be denied presses heavily on rich and
poor alike. In the December session
Secretary Houston will ask Congress
to make a new law simpler than the
present cumbersome statute. One of
the most important recommendation
of Mr.. Houston will be that the Com.
missioner of Internal Revenue be
authorized to make final determine
tons in any tax assessment. Under the
the present law a tax case can be
opened time and time again until the
taxpayer never knows when he is
through with litigation with the
Treasury. But lowering Of the whole
income tax schedule Is what Is now
desired by Congressman and citizens
alike. There are also many imperfec-
tons in the present income tax law.
as happens usually in all complex
statutes, and these must be ironed out
In the revision, House and Senate
leaders are said to plan not only
general reduction in all schedules,
but changes so that big incomes will
bear a proportionately larger share
Of he tax. The little fellow" will
not have to pay as much as heretofore
This will indeed be popular legisla-
ton with the masses.
The housing situation will also be
considered by the December session.
The shortage Of homes in every Sec
ton of the land, except in the rural
districts, is almost as serious as the
tax BURDEN and the high cost of liv-
ing. This problem confronting Con
gress will have two angles to bring
about construction of more homes ami
apartment houses, and to prevent the
rent hogs from further profiteerin.y
on the helpless tenant. The situation
may result in a Federal law establish :
ing rent commissions In all cities OF &.
certain population Taxation, too,
will be considered as a means of re.
lief for the housing shortage. Federal
taxes on newly constructed dwellin3
and apartments now average about 3
per cent. Of the total cost. This is al
ways tackled on the tenant. II thes,
taxer we're RENTED lower rents could
certainly be secured. Where rents
now are based on per cent. interei;
on the investment. three per cent OF
It is tax. With this tax removed there
should be one-third reduction IN
rents by the landlords.

CC0oGCo0C Geo G G

Washington, D. c. - The next se'-
sion of Congress, which meets Decem-
Der 9Th, and which will be the last
and third session of the Sixty-Sixth
Congress, will last only until the III
auguration of the new President,
President, March 4, next, when the
session will expire by limitation of
law. Including the Chrlstmast holi-
days, which nearly always last ten
days, the next session will have less
than 70 working days. 1t will readily
be seen from this limited time that
the December session will not be able
to enact much legislation. 1t will do
well to pass the fourteen big annual
appropriation bills, and adjourn in
time for the Presidential inaugura-
ton.
There is another thing, besides lack
o ftime, which will prevent much, If
any new legislation in the December
session. AS new Congress and new
President will take the helm after
March there will be a general desire
nthe part of all Congressman to de-
fer important legislation until the
new President makes his desires
known, and until the new members of
Congress, Of which there will be
many, can participate in National leg
islation.
The first session of the Sixty-sev-
enth Congress will be special session
called by the new President soon af-
ter his inauguratio nnext March. This
session will last a long time, and may
even run into the regular December
session of Congress, 1921. At this spe-
special session all the vast reconstruc-
ton problems of the new Administra-
ton will have to be considered and
solved, and it will take months TO do
that. The last session of Congress did
not really have time to grapple with
reconstruction problems and neither
will the December session. Recon
struction will be effected in the spe-
cial session of the new Congress
These problems are as gigantic and
important as those which, confronted
the Federal Government at the begin
ming of the world war.
Though the December session vii
not have time to take up the problems
Of Government, nevertheless there ar,
two matters Of legislation besides thu
appropriation bills, which that session
will endeavor to put through. One Of
them is revision OF the tax laws, ant

situation which has grown serious Ia
