pay is appropriated specifically in his
own name.
This man is Joel Grayson, in charge
of the document room of the house
of representatives.
Grayson, who has worked for the
House for forty-nine years, is desig-
mated as special employee of the
House," and as such his job cannot
be passed on.
When he quits or does the job will
die with him.
For it is the special fund of in
formation within his own brain, COW
ering the bills, resolutions and reports
of the last half century, which makes
Grayson's services so valuable.
And this cannot be passed on to
others, although the official files, con-
tanning more than a million and pub
locations, will, of course, remain.

Taxpayers, who have to pay levies
at every turn, can be glad they didn't
live in Russia a couple of centuries
ago. Peter the Great taxed boards.
This was more because he hated
whiskers than to raise money for
his treasury. Pete was wise. The
result of his beard tax was to make
most of the people shave. Taxation
curbs the use of things. 1t paralyzes.
It even extinguishes, kills-carried
to extremes.

Andy Mellon, on his vacation trip
abroad, is spending more time at the
National Gallery of Art in London
than he is at the Bank of England.
And over in Paris, he will devote
more hours to admiration of the
works of art in the Louvre than to
consideration of the French budget
and the reparations problem.
For while he is by vocation a cap
italist, Mellon is by vocation a con-
noisseur of art. AS the former, ma
turally, he is an expert on those
masterpieces of the engraver's art
turned out down at the Bureau of
Engraving, where Uncle Sans cur
rency and bonds are produced.
He doesn't permit his love for the
higher art to diminish in the slight
est his admiration for a handsomely
designed bandnote.
But, like the senior j. P. Morgan
who will be remembered no less as
an art collector and critic than as
tinancier. Mellon finds his real
enjoyment in his advancing years in
the contemplation of masterpieces of
painting dI0 SCQlUIuIe.
The mystery Of that muoh-pictur-
ed undressing pipe affected by Charley
Dawes, President Coolidge's running
mate, is at last explained.
He helps Dawes keep cool with
Coolidge.
Not that the smoke serves as
sedative and thus keeps the high
strung Dawes pulling pleasantly with
the calmly contemplative Cal, though
it may have that effect, too, but the
smoke from this particular brand of
pipe is supposed to have lost all of its
heat and bit before it reaches the
mouth of the vice presidential pipe
puffer.
The stem of the Dawes pipe, as
you have noted from the pictures, is
affixed at the top, not the bottom of
the bowl. But it enters merely an
outer shell.
There is an inner bowl containing
the tobacco, which is screwed into
the outer bowl. This inner container
has its opening at the bottom. Con-
Meeting the stem in the outer shell
with this opening in the inner bowl is
a spiral passage twenty inches long,
in which the smoke is cooled and
purified.
1t is suggested that the owner of
the patent on this pipe might make
a cleaning" if he would get author
ity to advertise it as the Official
e. Q. P. dudeen, guaranteed to help
loyal republicans keep cool and keep

Among Americans entitled to vote
for president in November will be
4,300,O 900 illiterates who cannot read.
And 100000 of them are native
born, not imported residents. These
figures are the estimates by National
Education Association, and are based
on census reports. The voter who
cannot read the newspapers, unless
he has the papers read to him has
to form his opinions from gossip he
hears. Such has always been the
rule. Presto! this year they have
the radio to bring candidates speech
es to them. Radio is a new factor in
national politics. How powerful?

QUITS
BY RETIREMENT
After A. Years in Service, Man
Who Led U. S. to Victory
in Europe Must Go.

Washington.-John ]. Pershing,
General of the Armies of the United
States, on Defense Day passed into
the shadows of retirement after forty
four years continued service under
the Stars and Stripes.
For forty-four years he has lived
with only one thought-his country.
He has slept and eaten, tramped and
fought and planned under the folds
of the flag.
He knows no other work. He has
never earned a quarter in his life at
any other duty. He is merely SOL
dier-a soldier who skyrocketed from
the Philippine bush and the Mexican
desert to world fame.
The only joy that soldier ever
has, save that intangible pleasure
that comes from duty well done, are
those few hours of quiet in the heart
of his family.
But this man was even robbed Of
that one remaining joy-robbed by
fire while his wife and three of his
four children were living under the
flag in San Francisco's Preside.
He has given his life and his FAM
lily to his Government-an now the
nation, by the inexorable law of the
army, turns him aside as "too old for
active duty" He stands alone in the
world-a man who has never done
anything but soldier-and his SOL
dier's days are over.
To the public be is inscrutable,
ruthless in discipline and, seemingly,
heartless in action.
That act was indicative Of the
mans spirit-the iullfilment of the
task at hand before accepting honors
waiting elsewhere. For forty-four
long years in tropic heat and north
ern cold and slush he has deliberate
ly checked his own feelings that he
might do his job better for the o. S.
A.
And now he steps asfde-with moth.
ing ahead save the endless years.
