with her parents when only two
years old. In the early spring
of 1920 the family came to
Askov from Persia, Iowa, so they
have lived in this community
but little over a year.
In this short time Emma had
become known to practically
everybody in the community
and was very well thought of
and liked amongst the young
people. She was but a little
over II years at the time of
death, She will be remembered
by many as taking a prominent
part in the local High School
play, "A Little Clodhopper' last
winter. in which she acted the
part of Septimus Green, a book
agent. with great credit to her
self. She was exceptionally Gle

OF her age.
Being the Oldest daughter at

and comfort to her mother and
leaves a vacancy there which
will be impossible to fill.
Besides her parents Emma is

The sad double funeral took
place from the local Danish Lu-

and was attended by about 700
people the largest funeral ever
held in this community and I'M
doubtedly also the largest one
ever held In Pine County. Eve

was closed during the services
as was also the High School.

in Danish and English. A hymn

to sing from. was given Rev.
Rodholm for the day. and from
this was selected Nearer My

Negro Uses Gun
On His Friend
One Negro Is in Hospital and
Other in Jail After Early
Morning Shooting

Ihe aftermath of a little shooting
aHalr which took place at the early
hour of $50 a. m. Thursday on the
farm of Mr.. Bossard Britton is that
sam Gailard. negro laborer. is in
,he county Jail and Joe Colclough, a
IellOw negro laborer, is receiving
medical attention in the hospital
here.
The negroes had been slightly at
odds for some time but the straw
that broke the camers back came
this this morning when Colclough on
passing the house of Gilliard did not
give him the accustomed good morn
ing The two negroes passed a few
uncOmplimentary words between
themselves and then the action be-
gan. Gaillard says that Colclough
worked on him with a stick, leaning
it not gently against his head. Gail
lard flashed his revolver and cut
loose twice at COlclough while Col
cloush was posed to deliver another
blow with the stick.
Rural Officer Sam Newman was
soon at the scene of the difficulty and
brought Sam Gaillard to Sumter,
placing him in Jail. Joe Colclough
was rushed to the hospital here as
quickly as possible and examination
revealed that his condition was moth
ing to be alarmed over. Only one
ball took effect in his body, entering
his right side, but soon striking one
Of his ribs, which detected the bull
let and caused it to come out, there

negroes will soon be amicably work.

SIMPLER TAX FORMS,

The troubles of the average man
with his income tax forms have been
the theme OF many song, story and
cartoon ever since the fun began. At
first the difficulties were taken as a
matter Of course--a necessary, though
disagreeable concomitant of paying
the income tax. or late it has been
dawning on many Of the "best minds"
that these difficulties are not only un-
necessary, but bad in themselves. A
cry is going up from all sides for
simpler tax forms and a simpler law.
The United States treasury is pay
ing back millions of dollars which it
mas collected unjustly, owing to mis-
understandings, and is at the same
time trying to collect other millions
not paid in because OF other misun-
derstandinSs. Nothing can be more
wasteful than paying for mistakes of
the past. The way to escape this
waste OF effort is to avoid the mis-
takes.
III the present administration can
| frame taxing system which will
permit Of tax blank comprehensive
by any ordinary mind, and will GO,
that simple, comfortable and fool
proof system in good working order.
II viii have earned the gratitude Of
every citizen who pays an income
tax.

FOREIGN POSSESSIONs.

1t has been intimated more tba,
once that Great Britain, France and
other allied powers indebted tn tbs
United States for big war loans would
not be averse to paying those debts
by turning over to this country some
OF their outlying colonial territory.
1t would be especially easy for Britain
and France TO do that, because they
have odd bits Of more o. less super
huous land scattered pretty well all
over the world.
There might be an occasional bit
OF such property that would be ac-
ceptable TO this country, as the Dan
ish West Indies were, for the ake of
desirable naval base or a bulwark
FOR exposed territory already under
the American flag. 1t would be easy
enough, no doubt, 10 persuade Wash
ington to make a dlcker for the island
OF Zap. IL any foreign debtor had a
clear title to that spot. But generally
speaking. there Is not the least bit OF
enthusiasm In the hearts OF the
American people for extending our
domnions abroad.
Colonial possessions, according to
the American idea. have always beer
overrated. The majority OF Ameri-
cans realize that the real mission Of
the American people Is to- deveiop
their own country and their owurcOn

MOBfIiZED FOR PEACE.

Compulsory social service has re,
placed compulsory military e"Yice In
Bulgaria. although 1t Is being enforc-
ed In only one district. The plan Az +.
parently Is to try it out thoroughly GA
a small scale before making 1t nation
ally effective.
The law requires men Of 20 years
and girls Of 16 years to serve the
state for periods OF one year and ha,f
year respectively. There are condi-
uons under which this age limit may
be varied upon application, and the
term OF service may be shortened II
the drafted person Is the sole sup
port Of family. In cases Of persons
physically or mentally unfit to serve.
or In cases Of married women, a spe-
cial tax is levied instead Of actual
service. Otherwise no evasion or sub
stitutioR is permitted. Every person
between 20 and 35 years Of age is
subject to call for four weeks SER
vice in case of national calamity.
1t is hoped that the operation OF
this law will serve:
To organize and utilize the poten-
tial. social man power Of the country
for the purposes Of Increasing the
production of wealth and the social
welfare;
To stimulate the love of physical
labor and socially useful activity
among all the citizens irrespective CT
their social position and financial
status.
To foster a sense OF individual and
social duty with the aim Of improv-
ing the moral and economic conditio,
of the people.
All OF thi. sounds like the outline
for some ideal sociaiistic govern
nnent. Many Americans have ex-
claimed at some time or other, IF
only citizens could be mobilized for
the pursuits of peace as they are for
war, how much could be accomplish.
ed" Few have seriously considered
1t as a possible measure for this
stage of civilization. Yet here Is Bull
garia actually trying 1t out.
Perhaps In a true democracy the
aim sought will always be to inspire
every citizen to do his share OF pub
TIC service without any compulsion.
Nevertheless the Bulgarian exner,-
ment Is remarkable and worthy of
close observation.

could not pay those wages and make
the profit calculated for them under
the Transportation Act. They were
beginning to make money when the
business slump came.
The only absolutely sound reason
for lowering wages is that other in
dustries are doing it, as a logical part
OF the economic readjustment on a
lower price basis.
1t follows that II railroad wages
are to drop, railroad rates should
drop. likewise. The two inevita bly,
hang together. The rate increases
were allowed for the express purpose
OF enabling the railroads to pay the
wage increases. Other Industries are
cutting rates--or selling priccs--alons
with wages. In fact, most Of the
other industries cut their prices be-
fore they began the wage-cutting
The railroads cannot expect to have
an advantage over the manufacturers
and other business groups by saving
at both ends, buying labor cheap
while they sell transportation dear.
Moreover. rate reductions are, per-
haps more than wage reductions, an
obvious remedy for what ails the rail-
roads. Other industries have lower
ed prices In order to stimulate the de-
mand. and expect to profit by it. Any
industry that holds out for peak
prices for it's product is bound to
lose trade and therefore to lose pro-
tit in the long run. The railroads arc
no exception.
This will doubtless be made more
clear to the railroad operators when
the government takes a hand in the
game.
