Il Haue Finished My
Education" She Said

And so did almost all the
young ladies fresh from board
ing school. Some have prob
ably framed their diplomas and
hung them on the walls of
their sitting rooms or bed
roorls.
While it is true that woman
educated in any one of the ex-
cellent schools for women is
better qualified to begin her
life work, she has much to do
and to learn to fit her mind and
body to do herself Justice in
beginning her business educa-
ton.
Let her rejoice that she has
been wisely emancipated from
the old prejudices and Gus
toms and that she is free to
take her place, and sure of q
tar chance to make her wav,
in the business world.

Three undertakings of Importance

OF the program.
The session is scheduled to convene

days Christmas will find the law.mak.

LAFOLLOTTE OPENS
FIGHT ON MELLON
A CLOSE VOTE ON AMENDMENT
TO GIVE FULL PUBLICITY TO
ALL TAX RETURNS.
SECURITIES MUST Be LISTED
Party Lines Were Badly Split In tho
Senate on Every Vote on the Sew
eral LaFoIlette Amendments.

Washington.-At the end Of day
Of stormy debates, which at times
was featured by heated personal ex-
changes, Senator Robert M. La
Toilette, Republican, of Wisconsin, in-
dicated that he intends to press his
demand for the retirement of Secre-
tary of the Treasury Mellon for hav-
ing brazenly and impudently laid down
the principle that wealth will not and
cannot be made to bear its full share
OF taxation"
LaFolylette also served notice that
he would later renew his battle to
force the treasury department to make
public all returns. An amendment to
the existing tax bill to this effect
sponsored by the Wisconsin Senator,
was voted down by the Senate by the
narrow margin of two votes, IS to 80.
LaFollette was successful In one
phase Of his fight to compel the Sec
rotary Of the Treasury to give pitt
less publicity to tax returns. He
secured the adoption by an over
whelming vote of an amendment COM
polling holders Of Federal, State, mu-
nicipal and other tax-free securities
to list their holding when they make
their tax returns. The vote on this
was 38 to H.
Party lines were badly split on the
LaFollette amendments, consider
able proportion of the Republican
side joining with large number of
Democratic Senators in supporting
them.

of this division. North Carolina start
ed out with four units, that is four
part time or evening classes or
other federally supported educational
work in trades and Industries. Tho
work was started in 1918 and the fol-
lowing year only one additional class
in this particular line was started. In
1920 the work got well under way
and at the close OF the year there
were 70 Of these classes in the state.
But the big gain came this year, and
up to the time the report is filed
there are 1853 classes Of students IN
North Carolina who are getting ex-
pert training in various branches Of

portant effect upon the conference on

is concerned, because 1t is the custom
of the Japanese to consult freely
among themselves upon all important
state affairs, and the conference dele
cation undoubtedly would have cabed
