A FINE DEMONSTRATION OF A
FINE SPIRIT

The associated students of the
State College of Washington last
week voted to make a one hundred
dollar subscription to the pullman
Memorial association and recon-
mended that three more subscrir-
tons of one hundred dollars each
be made during the next three years
The Students Book Company Inc.
which is an enterprise financed and
controlled by the associated stu
dents, also made a one hundred dol
lar subscription to the association
This is fine demonstration of
the spirit of cooperation and reci-
procity existing between the student
body and the people of Pullman.
The students appreciate the support
given to their publications and other
activities by the business men and
have taken advantage of this OPP
portunity to reciprocate by helping
along project which is close to the
hearts of the people of the COM
munity.
The Pullman Memorial association
was organized for the purpose of
erecting a community building as a
memorial to the young men from
this vicinity who laid down their
lives in the service of their country
during the World War. Such a
building will be of direct benefit and
utility to the community for many
years to come, but it will benefit
the college students only incidental
ly, and so their support is purely an
evidence of their good will
This status of reciprocal good
feeling is in pleasing contrast to the
traditional attitude of hostility be-
tween town and gown, and should
be encouraged in every possible way.
1t means much to the college and
much to the community. The inter
ests OF the State College and of the
city of Pullman are closely inter
woven and can best be advanced by
friendly cooperation between the
townspeople and the students. The
business men are under obligations
TO treat the students fairly and tc
cordially support their activities. Or
the other hand it behooves the stu
dents to conduct themselves lik,
ladies and gentlemen and to respec
the rights and property of the towns
people at all times. If both citizen

A TIMELY PLEA

(By Annie P. Schirmer, Clerk in New
Rochelle On. " Post Office.)
The Christmastide is drawing near,
When parcel post looms high,
The clerks and postmen plead with
you;
MAIL EARLY" is their cry.
OF course you want your friends to
get
Their gifts by Christmas day,
And Uncle Sam will back you up
If you mail them right away.
But If You keep on waiting
Until the last few days,
Therell be congestion in the mails
And terrible delays.
Just think how disappointed
The kiddies all would be,
II your presents came too late
To hang on the Christmas tree.
Your gifts need not be opened
If paster you will use;
Don't open until Christmas"
Is a seal that you should choose,
I wonder if you realize
The hardships Of the clerks,
II You neglect to mail THIS WEEK,
And thus your duty ohirk.
And picture the poor postmen
Laden down with shoulders lame;
For although tbs Merry Christmas
They must ali work just the same
So remember, friends, MAIL EARLY
II you'd spread the Christmas cheer
MAIL EARLY, and MAIL OFTEN
And delays you need not fear.

THE CHRISTMAS SPIRIT

One of the most essential elements
of the Christmas spirit is thought
fulness for others. This thoughtful
ness should include more than re
Numbering your relatives and friends
and the needy with gifts,
1t should prompt people to lessen
the trials of overworked clerks by
doing their shopping early so that
the last two or three days before
Christmas will not be a nightmare
of aching muscles and splitting head
aches to the men and women who
are forced to try to wait on a half
a dozen customers at once. 1t
should induce shoppers to be more
than usually courteous and consid-
crate to the clerks who are doing
their best to please them. but are
handicapped in their efforts because
of the nervous strain and tension
entailed by the unusual rush of GUS
toners
1t should impel every one to mail
their Christmas parcels early, out of
consideration for the post office en-
ployes and mail clerks who are us
ually swamped by the cards and
packages mailed at the last possible
moment. This congestion of mail
compels them to work long hours
of overtime and under a nerve rack
ing pressure. As a result they can
not avoid making mistakes which
result in irritating delays in the de-
livery of mail at it's destination. BY
mailing your gifts and cards in plen-
ty of time for delivery two or three
days before Christmas, this conges-
ton could be relieved to a great ex-
tent and both you and the people
who handle the mail would be ben
Gifted; you, because you could fee
sure that your remembrances would
reach their destinations before
Christmas. and the postal en-
PAOS bSNduHC lub tAild WOIh NOuiU
be distributed over several days in
stead of all being crowded into a
few hours.
The evidence of thoughtfulness in
the selection of gifts and the senti-
ments on greeting cards otter gives
more pleasure to the recipients than
the gifts or cards themselves, be-
cause it proves that they are an eX-
preston of genuine affection and
not mere formal recognition of a
social obligation.
Selfish disregard for the feelings
and welfare of others is not con
sistent with the true Christmas spirit
and will prevent anyone from fully
sharing in the JOY and merriment
of the Yuletide season.

THE SALES TAN IN CANADA

Whatever may be said in favor OF
the sales tax there is no doubt about
it being an attempt to secure new
revenue from the great mass of the
people who work for a living. There
is no pretention that it lightens the
load of taxation resting on the
masses; on the contrary, tits usually
accompanied by measures designated
to relieve the well-to-do of taxes
borne by them Canada's experience
has demonstrated this in the most
striking manner.
By whom has this tax been advo-
Gated? BY the farmers, by labor, or
by the great mass of those of small
means? Influential financial, indus
trial and commercial interests start
ed the agitation. In March there was
a conference attended by representa-
tiyes of the Canadian manufacturers
association. the Canadian credit
mems association, the retail mer-
chants association and the Canadian
wholesale grocers' association. Meth
Ell the organized farmers nor labor
were invited.
Who are the advocates of the sales
tax in the United States? For the
most part they are representative OF
the big interests, the agents of great
capitalists and war profiteers, who
though they did not dare to complain
of taxation while the war waged, have
maintained a loud clamor against it
since peace was proclaimed. Never
before had as many absurd claims
and eXtrayagant statements been
made on behalf of any system of taxa
ton as have been made by the Amer
lean advocates of the sales tax.
Armies of occupation through com
pulsion sometimes succeed in raising
large sums of money from compare
lively poor countries; but to say that
it can be collected is not sufficient
justification for the tax. The sales
tax is inequitable if for no other
reason than that the poor man. who
must spend practically all he earns
pays the tax out of what should &c
for necessities, whereas the rich man
pays it out of his surplus. The rich
man, who spends several months in
the year out of the country, escapes
the tax; but the man who cannot af-
ford to go away pays.
In the case of many persons en-
joying but a small salary or income
the sales tax practically cuts away
the exemptions from the income tax
On an income of but $4,000 a year a
married man pays no income tax; but
calculating the per capita sales tax al
$500, then, if he has a family OF
four, he will pay $2S. The head of a
family of four, that is, a wife and
two children, having a salary OF
$4,000, pays but $500 in income tax
/ but his sales tax will now take from
/ his seven times that And the ex-
amples to this effect could be multi.
