Later, I know, a pans was mine,
To nut that braided blouse away;
For Il looked so childish amid the line
OF college lads one day.
II remember a sob within my throat
When pinning, with fingers a-shake the
while,
Those college colors upon q coat
That at last was q mans In style!'
You see, my dear. how my boy had grown
Babe and toddler and sailor lad.
That nursed and taught and called my own,
Were ned-and was not gladF'
yet not In vain had hoped and prayed
Medals have sarnished that college coat,
And honors are his whose mother swayed
His earliest frseman's vote"

Science and Ism have their need,
so the mother's heart. loving on the same,
Wakes to n daily need.''

Cherish hours you may not recall,

GERMAN REPLIES !
TO j. s. INVESTORS.
Says They Bought Real Estate
Cheap and Expect Big
Returns
MUST PAY SHARE OF TAXES
BY the Associated Press

Berlin. Dec. 14.-Dr. Paul Marcuse,
German authority on taxation, in an
article contributed to a forthcoming is
sue of Transatlantic Trade. the official
organ of the American Association OF
Commerce and Trade of Berlin, says the
complaints of American investors in
German real estate that taxes and ex-
penses on this property exceed the in
come by far is not due to the German
tax laws but 10 the economic situation,
which has gone from bad TO worse.
Concerning real estate investments By
Americans, which have run into the
billions during the last two years, Dr.
Marcuse says:
BE It remembered that while the
German mark dropped from twenty
three cents to nine -tenths of cent. the
German real estate kept its value ex-
cept for. say. 10 or 90 per cent de-
probation for lack of Rpairs during
the war. Thus. n house in Berlin worth
200 900 gold marks in 1914 was still
worth about 1904 900 gold marks in
1919. but the American investor, in
stead Of paying 100000 gold marks. or
S3T 800. bought a house as cheap as
$4,000 and he complains that the IN
vestment does not yield gold dollars.
"The income taxes. which apply to all
foreigners having resided in Germany
more than six months. exempt only a
salary up to 1900 marks, the man re-
ceiving 10000 marks year being
compelled to pay 33.625 marks. The
law takes more than 80 per cent of d
million marks yearly income and the
percentage increases above 1,0OO,WC
marks"
These figures apply to incomes from
any source and country, but DR.. Mar
cuse points out that tho German Law
provides "for treaties 70 be made with
other countries exempting an income
derived from sources within such coun'
try on the sole condition that similar ex
ceptions be granted German citizens
residing in the other countries.

Children Annoy.

The Gazette is requested, by mem
bers of the Scenic City Band, to ask
parents to see that young children do
not play in front of the band stand
during the giving of a concert. Last
Thursday evening the noise made by
a large group of youngsters so inter-
fered with both the band and the audi
ence that it was necessary to stop at
one time until quiet was obtained.
This is disgraceful state of affairs
and should not be permitted to happen
again. Cooperation of the parents is
earnestly sought. If the children are
not restrained by those having natural
authority it will become necessary to
ask for official help in keeping them
quiet.
