Red Cross secretary of Phillips coun-
ty, handled her cases with much skill
and assisted materially with the work
on other cases. Like Miss Nelson, was
Miss Josephine Gambler, of Chinook.
also new to her field of duty as Red
Cross secretary for Blaine county. The
miliar had been so thoroughly exam
med before her arrival at Glasgow that
she was an unfailing source of infor-
nation on Blaine county cases.
Too much cannot be said of the very
able and efficient work of our own Red
Cross secretary, Mrs. George Berry.
The cases of a majority of Valley
county boys were as a book to her and
in addition to these she also shouldered
the responsibility of seeing that every
service man with any complaint what
ever, was taken care of in the quickest
and best possible manner She is to be
complimented upon her ability and
willingness in this work.
DR.. Mark d. Hoyt Commended.
The Board for Vocational Training,
the Red Cross and the American Le-
gion all join in commencing DR.. Hoyt
on the very able and splendid work
done in the examination of sixty-seven
cases of various kinds. Had it not
been for his earnest efforts the travel
ing squad could not possibly have COM
pleted all of the claims and cases.
Committee IN Arrangements.
The following committee took COM
plete charge of the details connected
with the drive, conducted the big pub
licity campaign to bring ex-service
men to Glasgow, and provided the
quarters, typewriters, stenographers,
assistants and supplies for the board:

In addition to all the members of

BACHELOR TAX OF DOUBTFUL
VALIDITY

In Miles City and some other places.
organization has already commenced
looking to the annulment, by legal
proceedings, of the tax on bachelors
passed by the last legislature and Just
signed by the governor.
1t is claimed by those who contest
its validity that the law is u~nconstitu-
tional, in that it levies a tax which is
not uniform, for purposes that are
private, rather than public. Such laws
as the one in question have been
passed by various legislatures in the
past, and have been declared uncon-
stitutional. This one having been APP
proved by all concerned in it's enact
ment, may be all right, but the proba-
bilities are that it will be relegated to
the scrap heap, with numerous other
freak laws.
As originally introduced, the mea-
sure provided that the proceeds should
go int the widows pension fund of
the several counties. The senate
amended the Measure to impose the
tax IN bachelor maids also. but finally
relented and struck this p~roviso. But
the bill was amended to provide the
funds shall go into thhe county poor
fund of each county.
The words, "head of family" the
law defines, "shall, for the purpose of
this act, be considered to mean any
person having wholly dependent upon
him for support, a wife, minor child,
father, mother, brother, sister, and any
such male persian actually living with
his wife"
Should the law be capable of enforce
riclt : VII yield an appreciate sum
to the state revenue as there is esti-
mated to be about $4,000 bachelors in
the state.

%N@@
PUBLIC TASTE BECOMING
CLEANER

If the press correctly reflects pub
lie opinion as to certain matters hav-
ing to do with good taste and morality,
is can be said that there is a distinct
improvement of moral standards now
under way. Referring to the Stillman
family troubles, the matter of Clara
Hamon and the general demand for
cleaner moving pictures, it can be as
serted emphatically that we are get
ting better.
The press did not suppress the Still
man and the Hamon stories, for by so
doing it would be unfairly treating
live current human interest events.
Notice, however, in handling these
salacious bits of sensation, that
most of the papers are combining them
selves to a bare statement of facts, in
the news columns. The old time gild-
ing of crime and clarifying criminals
seems lacking. In a word, the reports
are not as yellow as formerly, while
the editorial comments are almost
without exception, written along lines
holding up the criminal lives suggest
ed, to condemnation.
Clara lannon's little scheme to turr
her life into a moving picture scenario
by joining church and thus having the
story rounded out with a "reforma-
tion," is laid bare, and even the picture
directors condemn the plan to exhibit
her lurid career on the screen.
Condemnation and ridicule of the
Stlllmans is general, and millions no
longer make crime respectable in the
eyes of the American newspaper writ
er. And then too there is the clamor
for dress reform that is universal and
the demand of the papers generally
that moving pictures and magazine
stories be cleaned up and the sex stuff
eliminated.
All of these matters show a desired
Improvement in taste and morals that
may be continued indefinitely with
good results.
