CARL WALKER SUCCESSFULLY
STAGES PLAY, CRIPPLE CREEK

The Cripple Creek Times and the
Victor Daily Record this week had
extensive writeups concerning the
operetta, Polished Pebbles" given by
the Cripple Creek high school, of
which Carl Walku, of Gunnison, is
head of the manual training and mus
ical departments. He is son of Mrs.
Phoebe Walker of this city, and his
splendid success in his chosen work is
a source of much qualification to his
Gunnison friends. The Times remarks
THE students of the Cripple Creek
high school, who presented "Polished
Pebbles" at the high school audito-
rum last night, displayed such high
degree of histronic ability that they
need have no fear of lack of enthusi-
astic support in whatever entertain
ment they may offer to ths public
later.
Before the rise of the curtain, the
audience was prepared to give it's
applause thru sense of duty to the
youngsters, but before the play had
progressed to any length, the applause
was coming spontaneously, created
thru appreciation of the ability of the
operetta.
prof. Walkers orchestra, assisted
by Miss Lenore Sweet of Victor, was
exceptionally good, and added much to
the enjoyment of the entertain
ment."
"To Prof. Carl Walker credit is due
in large measure for the success of
the presentation, for to him fell the
task of training the members Of the
cast. To his laurels as an efficient
manual training and musical instruct
or, that of stage manager can now be
added"
This very pretty operetta was given
in Gunnison at two different times, a
few years ago, and in the last per-
formance, Mr.. Walker, then attending
the College here, had leading part,
in which his splendid voice was heard
to advantage. His selection as a
member of the Cripple Creek high
school faculty, was a dcided compli-
ment to the ability Of the young man.

United States Supreme Court Gives Its Decision
 on Test
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU
 THE AGE-HERALD

Mortgages given by Alabama farmers to- the Federal Land Bank at New Orleans as security for farm loans must be recorded without pay ment of the recording fee assessed by the revenue. law under decision of the supreme, court of fthe United States Monday. according to dis patches from Washington this ques- ton has been an interesting one in Alabama for more than year.
 Itaorigine ted in Montgomery coun- ty % when D. w. Crosland. probate judge, declined to record the Federal Land Banks mortgages without the payment of the fee. The bank con tended that the collection of the fee would be 8 tax against the federal government insisting that the land bank is an agency of the govern ment.
 When the case reached the supreme court of Alabama it held that a land bank is an agency of the govern Inent and It's phases were not taxable on rehearing the court changed it's decision and held that the mortgage fee is not a tax but is a fee charged for the privilege of recording an in- strument and tha. the bank need not avail itself of the privilege ot recordation. An appeal was taken to the United States supreme court and the dispatches. Monday anounced that the decisiontnf the Alabama supreme court had been reversed. =
 Mean. Loss In Revenue. s
 -The decision will mean the loss of several thousand dollars a year to the state and county. Under the paid to the county and~two thirds to the state. The tax Is 15 cents on each onesh,ii1dred dollars represented by the mortgage.i-
 Until a copy of the opinion of the United States supreme court in the mortgage tax case Is received state officials cannot know what effect the decision will have on the states rev. enue.
 It is feared that if tie Federal Land Bank is government agency and not subject to the mortgage tax of 15 cents hundred words, the state will not be able to collect the tax from national banks operating Alabama. Judge James Mayfield
 gal advisor to Governor Brandon oday pointed ut that there is diff ference In that the government is financially interested in the Federal Land Banks while it has no financial interest whatever in the national banks, the national banks merely be- ing organized under federal l-.ws in stead of state laws.
 The mortgage tax now places in the treasury about $150,0O0 a year and in the county treasnrles about $75,000 year.
