FAREWELL, OLD Nj. H. s.

On September 13, 1920, the old school bell sent forth it's summons to the children of Marianna. That first Monday in September was the beginning of the end for eleven Seniors. For four long years we have labored. We look back with pleasure to all the pleasant things and forget all the unpleasant ones that have happened during our high school days. In the deep reeesses of our hearts there will ever finger a sacred memory for our teachers and class mates. 1t is with Q feel ing of sadness that we write our last word. Writing our school notes has been a pleasure and we feel re- paid if our efforts have met with approval We know the new staff next year will be able to do far more than We have done and we extent our best wishes to it.

Amid many exclamations the packages were opened, disclos- ing pretty lingerie clasps for the girls and collar pins for the boys. Misses Ruth Felton and Virginia Dupuy, as honor guests, each re- ceived a pastel picture painted by Miss Nella Mae Miller.
 After enjoying the rest of the evening in dancing, the gcests de- parted, expressing to Mir. and Mrs. Miller appreciation of the lovely en- tertainment. The guest list includ- ed: Mrs. D. c.

SENIOR TACKY PARTY

Lifelong friends scarcely recog- nized each other at the Tacky Party given by Miss Virginia Dupuy Sat urday evening, May '. The Senior Class members will never have any more illusions about one another every one knows how the other is going to look in about fifty years from now.
 The first game of the evening was Follow the Leader," who was Vir- ginia herself, tho she bore a sus- picious resemblance to Louise Fa- zenda of Mack Sennett fame. The leader required that each guest slide down the banisters, the re- ward for which was balloon and some chewing gum. Next the party repaired to town where they aston ished the inhabitants of this ham, let with display of concentrated noises of all descriptions. The trip was very fatiguing, so our good hostess served us with punch-tho' twas "soda pop"
 A prize was offered to the one who could do the best original stunt. Altho' Winnie Davis stood on her head and Bernice stuck out her tongue and touch her ear, Edna won the prize, funny face that could stick out it's tongue. We can't say what she did to deserve the prize.
 Inside the house was beautifully decorated with newspaper scarfs and doilies, and the chairs were artistic ally draped with towels tied with big bows of red ribbon. An at- tractive sign on the wall read: If you spit on the floor at home, spit on the floor here-we want you to feel at home."
 In one contest Bernice and Winnie Davis were the boobies" and their punishment was feeding each other shelled peanuts with spoons. It sounds easy, but it wasn't. We all enjoyed meeting the fly family Mir. Horse Fly, Mrs. House Fly, Miss Butter Fly, and especially Miss Let Er Fly, who gave us generous sprinkling of water.
 The dancing was especially en- jOyed by the girls who wore enor. nous shoes and long, full dresses
 When the call for supper came everyone was hungry. There or the table was a flaming red table. cloth. Nothing daunted the guests each grabbed a tin plate and knife piled pork and beans, slaw, weiners buns, pickles and ginger bread or the plates and started eating. Sucf an enjoyable repast, umi um! um The ginger bread was perfect.

Skill or Chance

! A London jury has presumed to
pass Judgment on poker. Coming
when friendly relations were bright
ening, this decision is dishearten-
ing. With Sim Fein not knowing
whether to continue to lam John
Bull; with the Germans in America
having switched their hatred from
England to France again; with Adj
nliral Sims received by the Presi-
dent, and Senator Mccormick not
twisting the lions tail for weeks, it
looked as if closer understanding
between America and Great Britain
were assured.
And then came this impudent de-
cision about poker, one of the pill
lars Of Americas solidity, and as
national as the Monroe Doctrine
the game of the great West, where the
folks" live, and the game no alien
can possibly understand or appre-
ciate-except perhaps the Chinese,
if Bret Harte was right-this, our
greatest game Of chance, is declared
by an English jury to be-not a
game of chance, but a game of skill
The idea! 1t may be when you win,
but never when you lose. Not to
recognize this, variability is to pro-
claim ignorance. In view of this i'm
pertinent intrusion there is naught
for the Pilgrims to do but to apply
for a Sim Fein charter and for the
English-Speaking Union to dissolve
its organization.

Failures During Prohibition

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: A. D. Bachelor, who writes Of
the benefits of prohibition in giving
bank accounts to people who never had
them before, misstates the situation.
Before prohibition the circulation Of
money in the United States was $3,000,-
c0o,000. Now it is $6,000,00o, 900. be-
sides which there are outstanding
$4,000 100000 of negotiable govern
ment obligations. In other words, our
potential circulation has increased ten
to one.
Bradstreet's report for 1920 (the first
year Of constitutional prohibition)
shows 155 bank failures, the largest
number in twenty-five years; 109 state
sank failures in 1920 was the largest
number since the 1893 panic. R. g.
Dun's record of commercial failures
for 1920 shows 1881, with liabilities o.
$2s5,121 Dos, compared with 6,461 fail
ures in 1919, with liabilities of only
$11s,2s1.2 .237.
In the next two years the govern
ment viii have to redeem $1,000, 200, ,00o
Of bonds, notes. etc, and I suggest, re-
spcetfulIy. that A. D. Bachelor devise
plan by which this can be accom-
plished. FRED SCHWARZ.

Taxing Spendings

An interesting and intelligent pro-
posal for solution of the tax prob
lem is contained in the bill which
Ogden l.. Mills, of New York, has
introduced in Congress. 1t pro-
vides for the taxation of spendings
rather than earnings. 1t would turn
the income tax around, as it were,
process that would save most of the
merits of the income tax while avoid
ing many of its defects.
The income tax is rated econom-
icaily unsound in one important re-
spect, because it discourages savings.
In progressive society such as now
exists there is constant need for I'M
provement of the physical world as
d place of human residence and as a
source of supplies for increasing
human wants. Savings out of in
come provide the fund to sustain
those who labor at improving work.
Hence the necessity, unless advance
ment is to cease, to accumulate
liquid capital. Income received but
not spent on personal maintenance is
its source. Savings are a trust fund
for the benefit of the future.
Now, the income tax does not dis
criminate between income that is
dissipated and that which is set
aside for benefcent betterments. By
not discriminating it penalties ac-
emulation, and the enterprising
when they would carry on great
development find themselves unable
to secure the wherewithal to sustain
those employed on it. With respect
TO the surtaxes, which have driven
the recipients of large incomes to
invest in tax-exempt securities,
which in the main are non-produc-
tive, this truth is now plain. Though
not SO apparent or grave, the same
fault is in all income taxes.
The Mills bill, by imposing its
burden exclusively on personal
spendings, would thus automatically
exempt the part of income that is
re-invested 1t would thus at one
stroke diminish individual extrava-
gance and stimulate thrift. Here IS
an idea surely worth consideration.
The superiority Of tax on per
scnal spendings to one on real in
ccrae has long been recognized by
tax experts. But it has been con-
sidered a counsel of idealistic per-
lection which it was useless to en-
phasize. But Mr.. Mills is an opti-
mist. He believes public opinion can
be educated. The country, he thinks
viii, not be satisfied with timid
tinkering and asks a major opera
tion to cure existing tax evils.
New-York tribune., 1921-07-24
Separate Peace" with China

Germany has made separate
peace with China--or, at least, a
provisional peace agreement to be
followed later by dcfnitive treaty.
China refused to sign the Versailles
Treaty because of it's transfer to
Japan of Germany's former rights
and interests in Shantung province
China was therefore left with no
option but to deal individually with
Germany. The American delegates
at Paris signed the Versailles COM
pact and then found the Senate and
the country unwilling to ratify it as,
it stood. But we still have two op-
tions--either to ratify the Yer
sailles convention in part or to make
peace Independently.
1t has been said that an attempt
to make peace separately would give
Germany the whip hand in the nego-
tiations~ Mr.. Wilson spoke Of such
an alternative as "going hat in hand
to Germany" But China didn't find
It necessary to assume such hum
BILE attitude. The Germans were ex-
tremely anxious to get back on a
peace footing and for the sake Of
restoring normal relations with
China were ready to make important
concessions.
One of these concessions was a
surrender Of extraterritorial rights.
China is eager to follow Jspan's
example and terminate forever 4
privileged status for foreigners
which infringes on her sovereignty.
Germany is the first power to sub
nit its nationals in China to
Chinese jurisdiction. Taking adj
vantage Of Russia's collapse, the
Chinese government some time ago
suspended Russian extraterritorial-
ity. But Russia has never consented
to this abrogation of treaty rights.
For taxation purposes, too, Ger
man nationals in China are to be
grouped hereafter with the natives.
Thus another valuable privilege is
abandoned. In return Germany has
obtained what Berlin considers ad-
vantages in the way Of disposing Of
German holdings in China.
s Though expecting relatively little
benefit from restoration of peace
relations with China, Gefmany vel
coined treaty It is obvisus@ that
if the United States should elect to
make a separate peace the Germans
would go even further in promoting
settlement satisfactory to us. We
have the whip hand. There is no
way in which German diplomacy. can
deprive US of the guarantees re-
served by the Knox resolution, which
would always be easily reslizable
by turning back to the Versailles
Treaty and ratifying it with suitable
/ changes,
