A ROTTEN JOB.

The automobile tags for this year
is sample of rotten JOB. The
paint falls off in couple Of months
and then the tag begins to rust,
and instead of being an ornament to
a car it disfigures the appearance
of the automobile.
We have never been able to learn
jdst what these tin things cost the
state of Mississippi, but we do know
That every pair that the auto owner
buys cost him two dollars. Fifty
cents would be an enormous price
for them.
Then again, we have never under
stood why the silly legislator who
introduced the bill requiring owners
of autos to purchase two of the
things, when one would serve all
purposes. If two is necessary it
would seem that four would be bet
ter-one on either side and ends
have your cars decorated with the
rusty things.
Three years ago the tag job was
a very creditable one; two years ago
the tags not so good, but this year
they are fright and if the State au-
thorities who have in charge the buy
ing of auto tags do not raise a
mighty howl with the manufacture
ers, they will be derelict of their
duty to the people.

FOR FEDERAL BOOZE TAX :
Sale Advertised to Take Place June

Amounts Claimed by Federal Govern
ment Approximately $4,000
Owners Will Contest Sale
of Land

Salina, Kan, May 23-(Special) -
The United States government will,
on June 6, sell three farms in Ellis
county to collect booze tax. The war
rants have been issued from the of
fee of the chief of the federal
revenue Office, and the notices of the
sale have been posted on the farms.
Thy belong to Frank P. Brown,
Louis Nemecheck and Alex A. Leike-.
The case grew out of the arrest Of
the three men several months ago by
federal offers for selling liquor.
Officers have been unable to collect
the license.
The tax to be collected is from
Brown, $4,242.54; Nemecheck.
S5,3O9.42; Leiker, $1,992.2O The
warrants on which these properties
are to be sold are technically known
as "distraint warrants" in this case
Issued for the violation of the Vol
stead act.
The sale of the farms will be hotly
contested and a corps of attorneys
has been retained to defend the
farmers. 1t is said this will be made
a test case to determine the rights
of the federal authorities in this re-
gard.-Topeka Capital.

GREAT NORTHERN
ENLARGES FIELD
NOW WRITES LIFE. HEALTH
AND ACCIDENT
INSURANCE

The Great Northern Life Insurance
company, formerly of this city, has
enlarged its field tremendously by the
recent amendment to its charter,
which gives the company authority to
write accident and health insurance.
A letter to policyholders was issued
on November 21st by John A. Sulli-
van, vice president, in which this
change is outlined
The letter contains Mr. Sullivan's
statement that the year 1922 has been
the most successful year in the ex-
perience of the Great Northern, the
headquarters of which was located in
this city until recently. AT the close
of business on October 31st, 1922, the
ledger assets of the company were
$1,900,S5067, an increase of $247,-
015.S1 since January /, 1922. This does
not take into account accruals and
increased capital which would show
the total admitted assets about ST.
0S5,000 and which will be about ST.
175.000 by December 3lst."
In the letter Mr.. Sullivan also
speaks of the consolidation OF the
Great Northern and the Central Bust
ness Mems association. 1.-THE officers
of the company want you TO have full
knowledge of the consolidation" de-
clares Mr.. Sullivan, "and writing life
accident and health insurance. 1t is
their wish also that you have full
information of the financial standing
of the company"
