SCHOOL NEWS OF
REINHARDT COLLEGE
By Mrs. H. A. King. }

One of the most interesting games
of the season$was the one played here
Friday afternoon between the Rein
hardt and Gainesville teams. During
the first half of the game Gainesville
made only three points, while Rein
hardt made twelve. During the last
half the Reinhardt boys played with
the assurance of victory, stopping the
ball just when Gainesville was sure
of goal. Although the Gainesville
team played their hardest they were
defeated by eighteen points. Where
is the "pep" of which they so loudly
boasted?
Although the Gainesville girls
claimed that they knew nothing about
girls rules" they played a close
game, scoring even at the end of the
first half of the game.
Much interest was manifested in
the last of the game and although the
Gainesville girls were sure of sue
cess they were defeated. After the
game refreshments were served.
The third game will be played at
Pine Log High School Monday after
noon, February 28th.
The Reinhardt boys team played a
fast game with Tate Saturday after
noon, scoring seven and nine in favor
of Reinhardt, despite the fact that
two of Reinhardt's best players were
absent.
A recital was given by the young
ladies Tuesday night which was ne
joyed by all.
The ministerial students met with
Mr.. Brown Sunday afternoon. Mr..
Brown is very devoted Christian
man and although he is not able to
leave his room he has a warm place
in the heart of every one and his in
fluence is felt by all.
A sad accident occurred last week
while a crowd of boys were out hunt
ing. One of them carelessly placed
the end of the barrel of his gun on
his foot and stopped to rest. The
gun accidently fired, tearing off a
part of his foot. His companions
carried him to doctor Immediately.

cleared up, and it failed to do so.
Therefore, further work had to be
delayed This will not do any harm
for the boys will have rest and will
have keener appetite for playing
when they get to try again.
Some real agricultural activities
have been started here, but the rain
has temporarily stopped them.
Senior physics is regular problem
factory Many of the problems
cause some hot discussions. The hot
test discussion was caused eby the
following problem: A man out hunt
ing, locates a sqirrel near the top of
tree, on the opposite side from him.
He can see but small part of the
squirrel, so he tries to get, better
shot by going around on the other
side. But as the man moves around
on the ground, the squirrel moves
around on the tree, and when the man
comes around to his original position
the squirrel is back to his original
position. Has the man been around
the squirrel?

Last Friday saw the construction
of the A. & M. base ball team well
under way. The infield had been
given a taste of real base ball, the
outfield had been tested pretty sew
crely, and the batteries were showing
up some "stuff." When twilight
closed the practicing Friday evening,
the place and crowd bore all the char
acteristics of ball club in its first
stages of development. There was
much discussion about who was going
to make the different positions on
the team Many boys who had been
trying for the team were complaining
of sore arms and hands.
Saturday morning we were all bad

A Letter Tax.

President Harding has indicated favor for
an increase in first-cass postage as a means
of increasing government revenue Net income
from the higher rate would be turned into the
United States treasury for general purposes
Congress, searching wildly for sources from
which revenue may be wrung, thinks favorably
of the idea also. So we may set it down as rea-
sonably certain that the increase will be put
in effect ut will raise between $40, 900 900 and
$4,000 900 year and without costs of collec-
ton. You'll simply pay the postmaster cents
for postage stamp instead of 2 cents, or
cents for a postcard instead of l cent Very
simple. There will be loud protests, probably
from mail order houses and other businesses
which conduct their advertising campaigns
largely by circularizing. The average letter
writing citizen, too. will growl some. Here, to
him. will be visible evidence that the cost
of government service has gone up not down
For on its face there is no separation of the
amount that goes to defray the cost of carrying
his letter and the amount that goes to the
treasury as tax
Up in Canada they do it differently They
have 1-cent war tax on letters there But it
is separate and distinct stamp 1t is labeled
alongside the postage stamp on each envelope
It is not camoufaged or concealed as an in
crease in postage. Our method, however, is TO |
soften the blow; to disguise the tax wherever
possible.
The letter tax leaves open only one tax |
free means of communication. We have tax |
on telephone conversations, tax on kilograms |
and are about to have a tax on letters, yet we
have as yet no tax on the verbose political
of congressman to their con-
StItuents. The franked envelope, which car
ries no stamp, will evade payment of the new
letter tax. Yet the tons on tons of free mail
sent out from Washington is no small contri-
1utlon to building up postal deficit. If the
lew letter tax were made to apply to congress
'ional mailings it would help the government l.
in two ways. 1t would bring in L
'evenue directly from all necessary congress
'ional correspondence. And would cut to one
lalf or one-quarter the volume of political
that now cutters up the government
printing Offices and the mails out of Washing
on. That would be a tax that would benefit
is all.

the problem of how to cure poverty. There
is probably less of the disease in the south

Animal Training.

ers to make animals perform tricks In reply.
trainers produced before the committee some
OF tnelr pets for the purpose of demonstrating
the truth. Members were entertained in seeing
the disappearing canary trick performed as II
reputation to the charge that the bird WAC
killed. Such charges of course arise from TO-
norance- Trainers do not kill or maltreat, ami

part habit is the great factor in animal tricks
The morality of animal training is another
question. Children enjoy trained animals in
vaudeville shows, and their elders view with
mild interest the performances of NUMBERING
eiephants IN circus ring. 1t is said however.
mat eager interest in animal tricks is an fn6i-
ca'ion OF an under-deyeloped mind, probably
because such tricks are mechanical and
abnormal.
To see great cat leap through a ring
from horses back is a bore and to witness
beasts that ordinarily walk on four. legs tot
