mony was at hand. Al slow, half
step to the dirge-like music of the
band, the casket was carried out to
the nodded stone work that sur
rounds the resting place. The band
played Lead Kindly Light as the
pallbearers laid the casket on the
silver railing over the crypt. Cen
erals and admirals of the unknown
soldiers guard stood bare-headed.
Bishop Brent stepped to the casket
to read the burial service, and the
wreaths and flowers were brought
forward.
AS the casket was placed the body
bearsr gave place to the high Off
GERS headed by Major General Har-
bord and General Rodman, who low
cred it tenderly into the crypt.
The last wreaths were placed by
war mothers. Mrs. Emmitt Digney
laid in place the token of American
mothers whose sons died in the war;
for British mothers, Mrs. Julia Nc
Cudden placed the treasured English
flowers she brought all the way to
lay at the bier.

National Salute.
A crashing salvo of artillery roared

ARMY ESTABLISHES
new AID BUREAU
Salvation Army Seeks To Provide
Work For All Who Are Willing.

One of the first matters which the
board has decided to take up, is the
question of finding employment for
the many men and women who with
their families are destitute and in want
at the present time. So many sad cases
are brought to the doors OF the Sal
walton Army every day which could
be assisted through the securing of
work that the board has decided to
make strong point of the Salvation
Army free employment bureau.
The Salvation Army maintains a
free employment bureau, which can be
used by all men and women who seek
employment.
The advisory board will ask all firms
employing labor and all private citi-
zens to use the bureau when in need
of labor. All requests will be listed
and suitable persons obtained. All
classes Of people come to the Saliva
ton Army mechanics, clerks. store
help, or laborers, and cooperation of
business men will greatly assist in get
ting the most deserving taken care of.
Women wishing white helpers in the
house or for scrubbing, ETC., should
phone the Salvation Army 1241 There
are many women supporting large
families who would be truly thank
full for chance to make good.
Plans are being thought out for
reaching all employers of labor so that
efficient service can be maintained.

GASOLINE TAX IS
PLAN OF HUNTER
Would Raise Money for Good Road.
by Taxing Sellers of Gasoline.
(By JOHN C. TRICE)

TALLAHASSEE, May 8.-Represen-
tatlve Hunters plan for an occupa-
ton tax on the seller of gasoline for
the benefit of good roads-though it is
Hunters further idea that it should
not go direct to the good roads fund
but into the general fund and thence
be appropriated to the good roads
cause-has been accepted by the COM
mittee on finance and taxation as y
committee bill and there will be a pub
lie hearing on it in the capitol Monday
night
The proposed tax will produce in the
neIghborhood of $1,000,O0O and if it
does, this will operate to reduce the
lnillage about two mills. Hunter has
had the advice Of good lawyers that
the bill will probably stand. Taxing
gasoline as such has been declared I'M
constitutional in case taken up from
the state OF Washington because it
was held by the United States SUI
preme court to be a tax on interstate
commerce, a function exclusively re-
served TO congress. The good roads
people came to the capital this year
prepared TO give UP the idea of tax
ing gasoline because of the decision in
this Washington case and are much
pleased with the scheme Hunter has
evolved to take it's place. 1t is felt
that the expense of good roads should
be borne to some considerable extent
by the people who profit thereby and
increased automobile taxes and an in
creased gasoline tax were the methods
much discussed. 1t is an indirect tax,
paid only by the user, and probably
will not be onorous.
Hunters plan. of covering all moneys
raised by taxation into the general
fund and then appropriating out of
this fund to take care of whatever
money may be expended for by the
state has many advantages to COM
mend it, principal of which is the one
of knowing just how much has been
appropriated. If a definite sum is be-
ing asked for out of the state treasury
the appropriation is much more close
ly scrutinized than if the money asked
is the product of some indirect tax.
Under the present plan it is almost i'm
possible to tell how much money the
state is expanding. The plan COM
mends itself to the politician who is
enabled to get away" with much. but
it is not so pleasing to the taxpayer.

As matter Of fact you couldn't

The point we make is this !:
When the merchants you know

accord, passing out the new
goods at new prices-it does
seem loose logic to send your
orders to some other point on
