isfy him, but he YVES no help and the
other horses bit at him.
He's on pasture now, and he walks
up and down the fence all day fol-
lowing Bill and his outfit In the other

his old heart to see the young horses
there under the guidance and the
voice of the only man old Tom ever
loved.
1t seems too bad, doesn't it, that a
man or horse or any living thing
should work so long and so hard and
when the easy days come, instead Of
rolling around in the blue grass, and
enjoying life, the poor old creature
just spends its days grieving for the
work he's free from Farm Life.

Gifts Made % Funeral Attendants.

Funerals in early Massachusetts
were expensive Gifts We're made to
those who attended. Two of the COM
monest gifts were gloves and spoons.
Hundreds of gloves were often given
out at single funeral one is on rec
ord where 5000 were given away.
A Boston clergyman kept account
of the number he received in 80 years
he accumulated 2.94O pairs. A judge
received 81 mourning rings between
1857 and 1925. A physician who died
in 1853 at the age of eighty-one left
a quart measure full. These rings
were of gold, enameled in black or
white, They were decorated with a
deaths head or with a coffin showing
a skeleton lying in it, or with winged
skull. Sometimes they held a framed
lock of the deceased's hair.
These gloves and rings were usually
sold by the recipients. The Boston
minister already noted received $1OO
by selling his gloves, and an additional
sum from the sale of the funeral rings
he had collected through the years.

Pelts From Fur Farms.

1t is likely that the demand for furs
will be taken care of at no distant date
by supplies of pelts from EUR farms"
where the animals are bred under arti-
fetal conditions. This is already done
to a considerable extent at the fox
farms established in different parts
Of this country and Canada and now
efforts are being made to cultivate
beavers under the same conditions.
The latter have met with only partial
success. There are some difficulties to
be overcome, but there Is no doubt
that with little more experience the
venture of raising beavers will be prac-

NO ONE CAN ESCAPE TAXES
Attitude Toward Debt to CommonWeal
Pretty Well Expressed by
Farmer.

At the age of eight or nine l was
taken on a voyage up the Mississippi
river to ST. Paul. By that time the
imposing river craft which Mark
Twain celebrated has mostly, disap-
peared Our boat was modest at
fair but all the more fascinating to
me on that account because l could eX-
plOre it more satisfactorily was
always slipping downstairs to see how
the strange contrivance was operated,
especially at the crucial periods or
making a landing and casting off. So
one of my outstanding impressions
from the voyage was that the tech
meal language of navigation consists
mainly of profanity writes Witt Payne
in the Saturday Evening POST.
Later on our village bank In Ne
braska accommodated it's patrons by
paying their taxes; and | discovered
that taxes were usually discussed with
the same vocabulary as navigation. l
recall a fiery-bearded farmer in tat
tered garments to whom l had just
handed d strip of printed paper. He
held it in one calloused hand, which
trembled with emotion. The other cal
lOused hand clutched a tangle of red
beard Evidently the man was sur
charged with feeling. After a word
less moment he attempted to express
the feeling by exclaiming plaintively
'"That's simply hellish.'
The printed slip of paper was his
tax bill His taxes were more than
they had been the year before. Usu-
ally taxes were more than they had
been the year before, which three tax
payers out of five regarded as wan
ton outrage. Since then I have heard
much discussion of taxes. The red
bearded farmers comment pretty we'll
expresses the general attitude toward
them.
Always, everywhere taxes are an
affiiction. That is the basic fact about
them. Governments have been levying
taxes in one form or another. l sup
pose, for 10000 years; but in that
length of time man hasn't really got
used to it, The world over he still
regards taxes, In the main, as a sort
Of robbery to which he must submit.
Now taxes are our most immediate,
obvious and familiar contribution to
the commonweal They are what we
chip in the general pot for the pur-
pose of carrying on the necessary col
lective enterprise of government
Hence they Illustrate, better and more
cOnclusively than anything else, our
natural, ingrained attitude toward the
collectivism. An old saying couples
death and taxes as the two things from
which there is no escape. Death has
been called our debt to nature. Taxes
are our most immediate and familiar
debt to the cOmmonweal. We pay the
one debt just about as cheerfully as
the other.

Tifanium in a Star.

There have been made some inter-
esting comparisons of the spectrum
of the wonderful variable star Mira,
or Omicron Ceti, with that of titanium
oxide. 1t is found that the two Spectra
are, for the greater part. idenucal
Especially the curious bands seen In
the spectrum of Mira are shown to be
due to titanium oxide. There has also
been found evidence of the presence
of vanadium in the same star. The
lines of titanium and vanadium have
likewise been discovered in the light
of sun spots, leading one astronomer
to remark that the sun spots and the
star Mira are evidently very closely
connected in physical condition.

EARLY SPANISH MUSIC
TO BE PUBLISHED SOON

The beauty Of California is ex-
pressed not only by it's wealth Of sun
shine, fruits and flowers, its majestic
snow-capped mountains. and fertile
valleys. the great redwood trees and
wonderful Yosemite, but also by q
rich store Of early Spanish folk songs.
These melodies have como to US from
before the time tho United States
took over the government in 184s.
Some were brought over from Spain
by the carly settlers, others drifted
up from Mexico, and many came into
being az the natural expression Of
the beauty Of this fower-laden land.
Eleanor Hague has collected many
Of these lovely melodies a. sung by
Nthe older generation. and has greatly
enriched the treasures Of music by
her devotion to the preservation Of
Spanish-American folk song. The
task Of harmonizing and arranging
these remarkable traditional songs
for solo voice and piano was placed
into the competent hands Of Ger
trude Ross, one Of California's best
