mysterious beauty.
After the doctor left, Miss Ellis

simply went ahead and accomplish
ed perfect comfort for me without
bothering me with details.
Marie was called and came smil-

feur was told to have the motor
at the door in twenty minutes. A
pair of wonderful crutches made

Again I rallied silently against a

developed. The number taking up
the work usually ranges from five to
Is, and thus far the department has
been able to care for all applicants.
These students become familiar
with crop seeds, seed authorizations,
weed seeds, and other foreign ma
terials frequently found in CONNER
cial seeds. They are shown also how
to bake detailed analyses for purity
and how to test seed for termination.
If a seedman has a special problem
arising out of the peculiarities of his
business, he is given every possible
aid in solving it. The department
welcomes the opportunity to give
those who know the commercial side
of the seed business additional
knowledge of its technical aspects.
1t is an effective way to improve the
quality of seed sold to farmers and,
consequently, to improve yields.
Persons who contemplate taking
up this work this season should plan
if possible, to start about July 1.

whats in a Manner"
By MILDRED MARSHALL
Facts about your name; its history; mean
ing; whence IL was derived; significance;
your lucky day and lucky Jewel.
CECILY.

~ ECILY, though used interchange
ably with Cecilia, is an indie
pendent name with an interesting
history. She comes, of course, from
the great Caecilian gems which, Curl
ously enough, was named for a slow
worm, a reptile supposed to be blind.
Gaia Caecilia is said to have been the
iron, ~patroness of all other matrons,
whose tomb is famous throughout
Italy.
Another famous Caecilia was the
Christian martyr, whose body was dis
inferred in perfect state after 200
years and e~nshrined in a church. 1t
is she who is the patron saint of sa-
cred music. IL her honor Philip / of
France and William l of England
each named a daughter Cecile. The
English Cecile s%traightway became
Cicely, and became enormously popu-
lar about the time of the Reformation.
1t was Cicely Neville, called the Rose
of Raby, afterward the duchess Of
York, who gave the name greatest
vogue in England, where she was
known as Proud Cis. Her grandchild,
Princess Cicely P~lantagenet, was a
nun.
After the Reformation, strangely
enough, Cicely became a generic term
for milkmaids and sank into oblivion.
When it was revived it came forth as
Cecilia and was st%raightway contract
ed to Cecily and Cecil.
Cecily's talismanic stone is jet, de-
noting sorrow, yet, if it is worn by Gee
lily, it is said to preserve her from
misfortune, suffering and danger of
every sort. Wednesday is her lucky
day and 8 her lucky number.

shall apply when the transfer is by

state. It shall also apply when the
transfer is by deed, grant, bargain

The purpose Of the income tax
law as stated in the title is to impose
a tax on Individuals, associations,
corporations and other forms of bust
ness organizations. for the support
and maintenance of the public schools
The amount of the tax is determined
bv the net income. The federal in
come tax has been followed so far
as it is applicable to u conditions.
The same method of arriving at net
income is used, so that the Taxpayer
can use the same return for the state
law that he makes out for the federal
officer. This avoids duplication and
confusion.
This law will not impose an adj
ditional tax, but is intended to be a
substitute for a large part of the tax
now raised on property. 1t will make
possible a reduction of district spec
ial levies to the amount of money
raised by this act. This statement is
made in the title of the law.
Similar laws have been passed in
California and Utah, where they
have added to the relief of local lev
les. Washington will consider the
measure this year.
The laws do not propose either ar
increase or a decrease in the taxes
as a whole, but rather a more eqult
able adjustment of its payment. It
get this measure before the state
legislature of Montana will require
the signature of 81 of the registered
voters of each county. This should
be done so that the merits of the pro
posed law can be fully discussed. L
thew mean a fairer basis of taxation
Montana can consider and adop
them.
The teachers of the county, feel
ing their share of the communit,

culating the petitions for signature

HEAR ARMS EXPERT
In BURCH CASE
Evidence of Technical Nature Intro
sas3 .duced by the State in Los
Y Angeles Trial Today

10y Associated Press Leased Wire)
Los Angeles, Cal = J. 4. Vaughan,
who qualified as an expert on fire arms
was the first witness called by the state
today in its rebuttal evidence at the
trial of Arthur C. Burrch. Burch is
charged with the murder of J.. Bolton
Kennedy here last August.
Vaughan's evidence was brought out
by the state in an effort to offset
former expert testimony for the de-
Tense which had tended to show that
shotgun fred as the state claimed
the gun that killed Kennedy was fred,
would not leave marks on nearby
shrubbery that were found at the
scene of Kennedy's death The de-
Tense has produced an expert who said
that the load would have scattered
more than the surroundings indicated
if the weapon had been fired by man
as far from Kennedy as the state
claimed his slayer must have stood
Vaughan said the scattering of the
shot and the resultant marks where it
struck would depend on numerous ele-
ments, such as the bore, choke, load
and other things. He said there were
many guns of many makes and the ac-
ton of one would not much resemble
that of another.

Similar raids by flying squads of

Mrs. Jackson described Rock Springs

"All of the search warrants and
the warrants to arrest" he said, "were
prepared in my office in order to keep
our destination secret. Forty-one men
were sworn in as deputy sheriffs, but
were not informed as to their destina-

mission they were going.
"A short time before the arrival in

Hays said today he had not decided
whether to leave the cabinet and ac-

likely to make decision within the

AS matters stand, it is said that he
is not inclined to sever his connection
with the administration despite the un-
usual salary that would be carried by
the proffered position. He has not
discussed the subject at length with
President Harding and does not in
tend to act until the wishes of his
chief are fully understood.
Details of the offer made by the mo-
tion picture people are to be discussed
with them by Mr.. Hays on January Ia.
Published figures to the effect that the
