MAKE THE PEOPLE PAY

The immediate repeal Of the excess
profits tax, which is a tax on profits
above 20 per cent net, was demanded
by the Bankers convention. And Wall
Street and the bankers had learned
that day from Secretary Houston
That the Government would need A.
million dollars Of revenue next year.
indicating more taxes would be nee
essary because of declining profits in
business. Much interest is said to
nave centered in the proposal of the
national conference board for a long
list Of consumptive taxes. That is,
taxes on the purchases of every con-
sumer.
Why not let the people pay all the
taxes, or better still make them do it L?
However, to quote the news report,
there were some who were inclined
to stick to the principle that taxes
should be levied according to ability
to pay, instead Of being made to apply
to commodities of which the rich man
consumes no more than the poor man.
Why, may a person ask, is a tax
on profits which exceed 20 per cent
net, considered such burden on busi.
ness that hardpressed public must
pay additional taxes that business max
be relieved Of it; or billion more
in taxes be saddled on to the lane
OF bankrupt agriculture?

ABOUT CHRISTMAS SEALS

(SpeciaD-Three hundred and thirty
four miles of Tuberculosis Christmas
seals have been shipped to the Oklaho-
ma Public Health Association here,
and will be put on sale throughout
the state from December / to IS.
Public health work in Oklahoma is
supported largely by the sale of these
stamps.
To give better idea of the number
of stamps. If the ywerc placed in line
running north and south, they would
stretch entirely across the State, with
a liberal number extending into both
Kansas and Texas.
The exact number of the seals sent
to Oklahoma is 2O,OOO,O0O. They
will sell for one cent each, and they
are used during the holiday season
every year as a seal for letters, pack
ages, etc.
In addition to the seals, Health
Bonds" in denominations ranging
from $500 to $1,000 will be sold in
Oklahoma this year. These are de.
signed somewhat along the lines OF

A WoMAN,s AGE

One hears much talk these days that women will hesitate to tell inquiring election officials how old they are and when they go to the pollssto vote. lt is even suggested that some women may take five or ten years out of their lives when they register.
 This, madam, is. no doubt. the silly invention of woman haters who would have it appear thar there is only one secret a woman can keep. to-wit, her age.
 Of course. they know not whereof they speak.

 ITO be sure, and with pride,v she answered. Monsieur. is it not some- thing to be proud of that at 45 I am still young and have my share of good looks? 1t is no achievement to be young and pretty at 20. but at 45, ah. monsieur, that is something,"
 This thought is presented for the consideration of women who do not like to tell how old they are. if there be any such, as some persons would have us believe there are. 'T want to make it fashionable to be more than 30 years old" said suf- fragist. admitting that she was 4s. "Oh," exclaimed the bright report .

ton despite the public sentiment in
favor of his retention, was voiced
last night by members OF the Bright

The association went on record to
the effect that the dismissal OF

spite on the part of the president OF
the board and not a matter of inef-
ficiency or incompetenoy on the part
of the former superintendent.
A resolution exulting over Van
Schaicks failure to obtain the Com
sionership OF the District was unani-
mously adopted. 1t read in part:
I'VE congratulate the people of the
District on the narrow escape from
