Presidential Secretaries

The senate oil investigators plan to put President Coolidge's secretary, Bascom Slemp, On the. pan. They want to khow if he's chatted about the oil cases with anybody. Of course he has. It will be hearsay but mighty interesting if he talks freely. President Harding's secretary, George Christian, avoided investigation by asking President Coolidge to cancel his appointment to n job on the fed eral trade commission. This hap pened after Chairman Thompson stat ed Christian, as secretary, had tried to influence the commission in favor of u movie concern. Christian said it wasn't so, but he didn't want to work with an uncongenial chairman.

Your Income Tax

In connection with the income tax fight there's but one safe bet ihere'll be no reduction in time to affect payments due March ij. Be- lated changes may mean rebates later Oh. To big taxpayers they'll mean something. To the average man they won't amount to much--perhaps a box of cigars.

Prof. MoOrehead Digs
Up Ancient Kansas Canal

Director WarrenEE. Moorehead OF
the Andover, Mass. Museum of
Archaeology, has recently made an
important discovery in Kansas. Prof.
Moor ehead, it will be recalled was in
Augusta a few days ago and con-
ferred with the late DR.. w. Scott Hill
upon archaeology discoveries in this
locality in which the late Augusta
doctor was interested. DR.. Hill was
a great admirer of Prof. Moorehead
and used some of the professors
books as authority. DR.. Hill had one
of the most complete archaeology
collections in this part of the coun-
try.
The discovery which Prof. Moore
head made was an ancient canal
which is said to antedate the arrival
of the Spaniards in this country by
several hundreds of years, perhaps
thousand. The canal diverted the
water of the Four-Mile Creek and
seems to have been a rather extern
sive piece of work. The process of
excavation is thought to have been
done with gouges and paddles.
