Many Necessities to Sell Minus the
Government War Tax From
That Date.

In accordance with changes in Fed
eral taxes, voted last month by Con-
gress the war tax on many articles
was knocked off Sunday. Here's
how they will affect us:
Railroad taxes, that is taxes on
passenger fares, berths, chairs and
seats on board trains and coastwise
steamers as well, was cut out, start
ing Sunday. The tax was per cent.
Tax Off Packages.
There will be no more taxes on
shipments of packages by freight or
express.
Drugs, tooth and toilet articles
will sell at regular retail prices
without the attached rider-a war
tax.
No Pennies For Drinks.
The penny that has been in SO
much demand at soda fountains and
elsewhere since the war tax was vot-
ed, will go back to its accustomed
place. Coca Cola, ice, cream and soft
drinks will not carry war tax
longer.
Government stamps will be out of
style for while at least.
Taxes on clothing ore cut out.
Here we will not benefit by the
law taking the tax off movies.
Where ten cent admission, or less,
is charged there is no war tax added,
but otherwise the original tax hangs
on.
Heads of families with dependents
will get a slight reduction n taxes.

BILE the rapid spread Of sentiment in
favor Of quack economic nostrums
for national ills. The conditions in
the country are not dissimilar to
those Of 1894, which led up to the
historic campaign Of 1896. Two
things are necessary to ward off the
possibility Of the success Of the
forces Of initiation and reputation:

possible, if the expectations Of Ne

BELNGTON HIGH SCHOOL THE
RECIPIENT OF THREE GIFTS

Some time ago The Woman's Club
of Belington presented the Domestic
Science department a check Of ten
dollars to be used toward purchasing
needed equipment The Belington
Civic League presented the Domestic
Art department with new Singer
sewing machine. During the holiday
seasons the High School Alumni
made the school present of check
for twenty dollars.
Pupils and teachers are very CRATE
full for these tokens of good will and
for the spirit of hearty cooperation
which prompts them. We are remind
ed of the minister who having re-
ceived very liberal donation from a
small grounp of his large membership
referred to the matter in publicser-
vice soon afterwards, and said the
most appropriate scripture reference
he could recall was: go thou and do
likewise" We are not beggars by
any means but we cannot help but
think of the things we lack, that are
found in many well equipped modern
high schools. Lack of proper tools
does render good work more difficult
in any undertaking. Lack Of the pro-
per facilities for instruction renders
the teachers work more difficult and
the pupils understanding of subject
less dear and comprehensive.

PIECE OF STEEL Is
EXTRACTED FROM HEAD
Mind OF Patient Is Rapidly Improving
Since Delicate Operation
Was Performed.

j. r. Heltzel was in our office last
Monday morning and had with him a
piece Of scissors about an inch long,
which was the article extracted from
the skull of Columbus Heltzel who
was taken from here to the Fairmont
hospital some months ago. The ex-
animation showed that the piece Of
Esteel had been embedded SO as to
bring pressure upon the brain Of the
young man, and it was removed. His
mind is rapidly improving.
About fifteen years ago Columbus
Heltzel was working at Meriden and
was thrown on a junk pile. All he
remembers is that when he got up
he was hazy. He thinks that at that
time the scissors broke off in his
skull

S. A. CAMPBELL DEAD

born at Hightown, Virginia, March IL,
1843 and departed this life January
LIST, 1922, being N years, 8 mos. and
10 days old. He was married to En-
ma G. Loury about year 1875, and to
this union was born one daughter,
Mrs. Grace Fisher, two sons, r. N.
Campbell Of BelingtoE, and G. r.
Campbell of Grafton who survive.
He is also survived by one grandson,
Harry S. Fisher and one great-grand-
daughter, Mary Josephine Fisher of
Grafton, one sister Miss Matte a..
Campbell and one brother, Luther c.
Campbell Of Dunmore, Pocahontas,
Co. One sister, Mrs. H. p. Patterson
died 18th of November last. His
good wife proceeded him to the grave
October 10, 1918.
He. was lifelong member Of the
Presbyterian Church joining the Be-
lington Church in1s92 and some years
later was appointed ruling elder
which office he occupied at the time
of his death.
Mr.. Campbell had been in declin-
ing health for about six years. He
was Carpenter by trade, was in the
mercantile business here for some
few years from which he retired a.
bout eight years ago. The kind dis
position that was his, made him many
friends. He was the same true hus-.
band, father and friend from year to
year, and at all times, under all cir
cumstances he walked in the well
beaten path Of righteousness. Could
all live the just and upright life. Mr.
Campbell lived and die in his trust
ing faith, death could no longer be
called ''The King Of Terrors" for the
inspired no terror there but went
out peacefully to his Eternal Rest.
Thus passes from our midst one Of
the pioneer citizens Of Belington.
Funeral services conducted by his
pastor, Rev. Mckenzie, Monday even
ing in the Presbyterian Church. J.
P. Tibbets, Elihue Simmons, Grant
Graham, Frank Shepherd, N. Y. Wet
eel and M. e. Dennis were pall-bear-
ers.
The remains were laid to rest be-
side that of his wife in Elliott Gene
terry.
During the funeral services Rev.
Mckenzie and the following poem by
Freeman:
"No, not cold beneath the grass,
Not close-walled within the tomb;
Rather, in our Fathers mansion,
Living in another room.
Living, like the man who loves me,
Like my child with cheeks abloom,
Out of sight, at desk or school work,
Busy in another room.
Nearer than my son whom fortune
Beckons where the strange laras
loom;
just behind the hanging cutain,
Serving in another room.
"Shall doubt my fathers mercy?
Shall I think Of death as doom?
Or the stepping Ger the threshold
To bigger, brighter room?
"Shall blame my Fathers wisdom ?
Shall / sit enswathed in gloom,
When know my loves are happy,
Waiting in the other room?"
Freeman.

FIAT FINANCE is IN
THE AIR AIN

------
During every era of initiation, fol-
lowing a period Of initiation and spec
ulation, comes movement for cur
rency imitation. The remedy is like
that of getting drunk again to cure
the he adache and general physical
Generalization after debauch. Apos-
ties Of the people, at such times,
arise to remind the debtor that while
he contracted his obligations when
money was easy he Is having to pay
when money is tight. Campaigns Of
this kind are always characterized by
a great deal Of lurid rhetoric about
the money barons, the plutocrats, the
bloated bond holders and the big in
terests.
The United States has passed thru
several such periods, the most recent
being the campaign of 1896, featur-
ing Coin Harvey free silver, William
Jennings Bryan, his cross of gold
and crown of thorns. Now, with de-
flation following the imitation and
speculation Of the war period, with
the day of settlement succeeding the
day of financial joy riding, dema-
gogues are springing up on every
hand with schemes for making every
body rich and happy once more thru
the free and unlimited issue of fiat
money.
When the federal reserve law was
passed eight years ago, one Of the
loAding bankers Of the Middle West
declared that while the immediate eff
feet of the measure would be good,
it represented a dangerous venture
Of the government into the banking
business and held possibilities of in
fation which would ultimately bring
reaction and the renewal of agitation
against banks and in favor Of more
radical infationary measures. The
time has come, much FASTENED by the
necessity of expanding credits dur
ing the war, when that prediction is
being fulfilled.
.Demagogues with political bees
buzzing in their bonnets, are arising
to propose all sorts of inflationary
panaceas for the evils arising out
of the recent process Of initiation.
Coin Harvey is writing series of
articles for the Socialist Appeal to
Reason. Henry Ford and Thomas
Edison, who have gained fame in the
realms of gasoline and electricity,
come to the front with scheme for
the revival of the Assignat expert
ments of France during the Revolu-
ton They would issue currency
based on the property owned by the
government. This means an unlimit-
ed supply of new money based ON the
ownership of the national capitol and
other buildings at Washington, the
forest reserves, the national parks,
the Muscle Shoals dam, and, maybe,
our airplane and shipping invest
ments during the war. It is the
opislon Of Messrs- Ford ana EDISON
that there is no reason why every
one should not nave q pocket 1uii OF
moneywniie there are 80 many print
ing presses IN the country that could
be used to grind out bills based upon
the credit OF the United states.
