 'Tn Burgenland the parenthesis comes into its own. The map or time table which neglects to give one al- ternative for city or town, and sometimes a third choice, will handi- cap it's user. Tact also would require that if one speak of the principal city of the region to an Austrian he call it Odenburg (also spelled Oedenburg); but that if he mention the same city to a Magyar he speak of it as Sopron.
 "Odenburg has claims to fame on it's own account, notably it's Church of St. Michael, completed eight years be- fore Columbus discovered America, and its cattle markets of the days be- fore the war. But it's principal as- sociation is with the names of Ester hay and Szechenyi.
 Both north and east of Odenburg are castles of the Esterhazy family Along the Neusiedler See is the Hun garian Versailles where Haydn was | conductor of the private orchestra of one Esterhazy, Nicholas Joseph. At l Mattersdorf (Nagymarton), where d | ional government, is the chateau of the family among whose scions were a platine of Hungary, one who re- fused the kinship of Hungary, an- other who was the emissary of Louis ! XVI to Marie Antoinette, and one who, in 1917, formed the Hungarian cabinet representing the parties opposed to | Count Tisza.
 'The castle of the Szechenyi family is nine miles southeast of Odenburg, Kossuth, his political oppoent, called Istvan Szechenyi the greatest of the Magyars,' and time seems to confirm this unbiased judgment. Figuring first as a sort of Paul Revere, in his ride through enemy lines to convey mess | age of two emperorrs to Butcher and Bernadotte, then as a Magyar L'Enfant | in his effeort to make Buda a capita1 l beautiful, this nobleman has to his credit such other diverse achievements as pacing the first steamboats on the | Thelss and Danube, suggesting canals | between the two rivers, writing a book on horse racing, and giving a years income to furthering the wider use ot the Magyar tongue.
 The principal concern of both Aus tria and Hungary with Burgenlan6 probably is the coal region at Brenn- berg, near Odenburg. In the vicinity too, are the towns of Ruszt and BaIf centers of wine production.
 "Neuseidler See, not far from Oden- burg, is shallow body of water more than 20 miles long and averaging sever miles wide. At times it shrinks tc half it's size. About the time of oul own Civil War it dried up altogether

 Ruth has shown himself to be an un- usual batsman but if the scientific test that was made with Ruth as the sub ject in 8 New York research laboratory is correct, he is more than the average player. This test, according to H. S. Fullerton, showed Ruth to be about 90 per cent. efficient while the average eff ficiency runs about SO. He has a set of steady nerves, his quickness of percep- tion runs one and half per cent. above normal, his ears are ten per cent above maj, his ears are ten per cent. above normal and his eyes are better than normal by twelve per cent.
 Thus it would appear that Ruth Is super baseball batter. Not only has he the physical properties for swatting home runs but he makes use of them. So well has 1t been developed what his must serve him ball travelling 1-500 of a second faster to work the same de- ception upon him as upon the average player
 Thus 1t would seem to be established how he does it. He does it because he is built for it. His ability places him at the top of the list of home run makers with a new record each year, and inasmuch as he will get the chance it seems to be likely that he will be an important factor in the worlds se- ries with his batting eye and powerful swing.

When those at the head of the town government can show at the conclusion Of the years work that they have car ried out the directions of the town meet ing, looked carefully to the administra- -lon Of all affairs of the town, met such emergency conditions as have arisen even though considerable outlay was in yolvad and are able to show a substan- Hal balance on the right side of the ledger after all bills have been paid, there is every reason why those whose interests have been so well taken care ot sAouli regard that as good govern ment
 When in addition to such a highly commandablA showing those at the head of the same town government un- der present day conditions indicate that they will be cole to carry on the busi- ness of the town during the ensuing year in the same economical manner and recommend tax a half mill less than was recommended for the same purposes a year ago there is further reason for concluding that the affairs Of tho town of Norwich are in the hands 1f faithful and eflclant servants and right where they should remain.
 Such at least should be the view of those who demand and recognize a good business administration of town gov e-ument. Sound and conscientious han ding of town affahs is what every com uunity mas a right to expect. In this respect there has been established in Norwich during the past six years a record that speaks for itself Having served the public in a manner which must carry conviction among the thoughtful citizens regardless of par .y. the logical thing for those whose laterest' have been so well served is tc endorse that administration by seeing that the ticket which Is headed by Se- lectmen Eailey and Bushnell Is elected next Monday
 That IS what Norwich needs and that ls what it will get if those who are act. mated for the towns good respond tc their duty. Good government should be Insisted upon at all times and when obtained it should be supported

Baking bread and roasting meat on the summit of mountain without fu- el is possible by the use of a device invented by a scientist of the Smith, sonian Institute, Washington, D. c.

An Easy Task

Some people believe that the switch board operators in all telephone ex- changes should be persons of wide in- formation, of tact and high degree of skill, and that to serve the public per fectIy they should possess the rarer power of divination, mind reading and second sight. This is all indicated by almost daily occurrences like this:
 Please give me Miss Browns home"
 The operator asked for the number.
 well, I haven't the number, said the sweet voice, but it's Miss Brown who lives, think, in the northern part of the town"
 The hello girl was prompt to ask Miss Browns first name.
 T don't remember" the voice replied the firnness now more evident than the sweetness in the tone, "but you can easi- " find who it is. It's Miss Brown who lives up town as I said before, and she used to teach in one of the schools Please get her right away"

WISCONSIN SENATOR
ATTACKS SECRETARY
ON TAXATION ISSUE
Says Principle That Wealth Will Not Be Made
to Bear Full Share Ought to
Bring Retirement.
AMENDMENT TO TAX BILL PRESENTED

'"The fiscal head of the government"
La Toilette asserted, has laid down
the principle that wealth will not and
cannot be made to bear its fair and fnll
share of taxation, that the people must
carry far more than their fair and just
share Of taxation if the revenue needs
of the Government are to be met sue
cessfully.
HE laid down that principle brazenly
and impudently and he ought to be re-
tired for making a declaration Of that
sort"
By the amendment the Collector of
Internal Revenue also should be re-
quired to make full report TO Congress of
all tax exempt bonds reported by their
holders.
La Toilette then introduced an amend
ment to require the treasury department
to make public all tax returns.
La Toilette stated that it was his pur-
pose to force holders of tax exempt Sc
curities ito place all facts concerning
their holdings before Congress and the
country.
His amendment involved all holders of
Federal, State and municipal bonds and
similar forms of tax-exempt securities.
The country is entitled to know who is
bearing a proper share of the country's
burden OF taxes and who is escaping
them" said La Toilette.
By bare margin of two votes Senator
LafOllette's proposal to require the
Treasury Department to make public all
tax returns was defeated 50 to 33.
