MIN L nFlI Mass, June II.
Miss Esther Moody, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Ambert G.. Moody, is to go to
Picking, China, under the American
board of commissioners for foreign mis-
sions as 4 teacher The first public an
Houncement of the fact was made at
meeting of the board in Boston, Tues
day of this week
Miss Moody is a grandniece of the
late evangelist. Dwight T. Moody She
is a graduate of Mortified seminary, Of
Wellesley college, 1920, and for the past
two years has taught in the high school
of Ridgewood, n j. Her mother is
president of the Franklin county branch
of the Woman's Board of Foreign Mis-
sIons and of the local society.
Much of Mrs. Moody's time for sew
eral years has been devoted to arous-
ing interest in foreign missions by adj
dresses and by organizing new societies
in many towns. Thus her daughter has
been brought up in an atmosphere de
voted to missionary interest and her
pleasing personality and ability fit her
admirably to fill such position as she
will assume this fall.

NEW YORK, June l7-AIrs. Rebecca
Senst, 10 years old, became rigid yes
terday afternoon as she lay III her bed
at the home OF her daughter, Mrs. Risk
Grossman of Is Lewis street. There
was no one with her at the time but
an old man OF the neIghbUrhood, who
had volunteered to be nurse While Mrs.
Grossman went shopping. lie used a
pm and ether tests which experience
had taught him would show whether
people were awe or dead. lie concluded
that Mrs. SeHst was very dea0 lHdGed.
The presence OF death affected the
old man to such an extent that he ran
into the street, where he stood and
yelled in liddIsn He drew a large ana
interested crowd Of friends, relatives
and ueighbors OF the CHEESEMAN'S and
the Sensts, and 80 or more Of them fol
lowed him upstairs and crowded INTO
the small room where Mrs. Senst lay
motionless. They were making tests,
each person having his or her particular
test. and when GrosSman and MIS-.
Grossman got home they were told that
beyond doubt Mrs. Senst was dead.
So Grossman went to the undertake
ing establishment of Hirsch q Schwartz,
and they sent Samuel Bonner and Harry
sherman with a hearse and two big
tubs of ice to the Grossman apartment
TO put MIS-. lNtilSE III It bO-Ns DtANlACO wei
i'm zee, and let her stay there until after
the Jewish Sabbath, when the burial
would take place. They started TO do
this while the Borrowing friends and
relatives watched. They put Mrs.
Senst in the box and Bonner and Sher-
man dumped in two or three big cakes
oil ice.
As soon as the ice hit Mrs Senst's
body her legs twitched, -once. Two or
three of the more timid ones in tine
crowd Immediately went home, and the
others drew back and watched. They
watched for some time, but Mrs. Senst
did not move again, SO Bonner and
sherman dumped In some more ice.
Again Mrs Scnst's leg twitched.
Bonner and sherman became excited
then and began throwing the ice into
the box as fast as they could. They had
Mrs. Senst almost covered with it, when
she suddenly sat Up. began throwing
out the ice with her hands ana yelling
in Yiddish.
u another minute she and Bonner
and Sherman were the only persons in
tie room The others had run down
tairs 81 top speed. shouting and pray
ing. Bonner and Sherman stayed be
cause it was their ice and their box
necessary in their business, and when
Mrs. Scnst convinced them that she
was rot dead they lifted her out OF
the box and put her back on the bed
Then they got into their hearse and
drove away, their interest in the affair
ended.
When the CHEESEMAN'S got back into
their house they summoned DIR. Bernard

that Mrs Srnst bod had stroke of

BREAST PLATE SAVES .
LIFE Of DEER HUNTER
Was Struck Directly Over the
Heart by Stray Shot of Care
less Nimrod in Woods.

A homemade, improvised breast
plate worn by Col. j. B. Green, resi-
dent Of Chelan, Wash, on recent
hunting trip was the means of saving
his life. Today he exhibits a f1attened,
soft-nosed grizzly bear bullet to prove
the story he relates Of being struck di-
rectly over the heart by the stray shot
of careless deer-slayer.
Green engaged a sheet metal worker
to pattern some one-eighth inch steel
plates the exact size of an old vest.
After being shaped, filed smooth along
the edges and bent to match the curves
OF his body Green glued the pieces to
the wooden vest. Although the plate
weighed IS pounds he insisted on

person was disappointed. There were
thirty-two who took part in the pro-

credit for the fine way in which the
chorus did its work.
The soloists were DR.. I. r. Boyd,

LUYING CHRISTMAS SEALS
Christmas seals cost just penny
But they do lot Of good;
No Won lust can't buy too many-

No, you just can't buy too many
! Have a hundred? Knew you would!
! The sale of Christmas seals in Latah
county, to procure money for the use
of the Anti-Tuberculosis association
in fighting the white plague, is pro-
crossing satisfactorily, according to
Mrs. Will F. Morgareidge, chairman
of the county organization, and it is
expected that the coming week, the
last before Christmas, will see the re-
ceipts swelled materially. Latah
county people are mailing Christmas
packages and are mailing them with
Christmas seals affixed, showing a,
thoughtfulness and an interest in
others which is commendable.
In Moscow the campaign has started
off satisfactorily. While the seals are
on sale in many places of business,
there were just three places where
anyone was in charge of the sale of
seals especially at the post office,
Davids', and the Farmers Union <-0re.
Mrs. A. L. Morgan, at the post office,
took in $27.53 from the sale Of seals
Saturday afternoon. Mrs. Chas. Stem
ger, at Davids' took in SSH, and Mrs.
Sig Coleman at the Farmers Union,
$500. The amounts taken in other
stores in the city have not yet been
checked up.
Seals will be on sale during this
week at the three places mentioned
above and at all drug stores, Creigh-
tons, Knights Variety store, and

INEQUITABLE TAXATION.

Would it not be as fair to make a
rich man pay higher rate of taxa
ton upon his real estate or his tan
gible personal property because he is
rich as it would be to make him pay
a higher rate on income from his in
tangible property because he is rich :?
The point Of the whole matter is
that equitable taxation is based upon
the ability of the thing taxed to en-
dure the tax, not upon the ability Of
the man who owns the property to
pay the tax. Destructive taxation is
one OF the greatest evils Of govern
ment And the heavy taxation of
the rich mans mortgages, for ex-
ample, would fall not upon the rich
man but upon the men to whom the
money was loaned for which the rich
man received his mortgages. If 1T
did not so fall the rich man would
protect, himself against the heavy
tax by methods that would disturb
the necessary processes of business

Congress, should have no hesitancy
about taking action on constitutional
amendment to prohibit child labor,
which President Harding urges should
be initiated at ONCE Constitutional
limitations make it impossible to
remedy this evil without an amend
ment, two efforts by congress in re-
cent years having failed. The lives
of many thousands of children are
being blighted by work during their
tender years, in great manufacturing
institutions, each year, and one of
the obligations which congress should
assume, and assume at once, is to do
