The Shoes Of the Great.

The Shoes Of the Great.
oh. who shall fill the great man s
shoes?"
The question sounded far and near;
And on the instant came the news
OF many an eager volunteer.
Each stoutly strove to put them on
In hope the selfsame path to trace
Which for another man had won
Above the leveled crowds a place.
They did not pause the patch to note,
Nor yet the sole SO scuffed and old,
Nor bits of mire caught in the moat
That crossed the way to castled
gold.
The paths he made are paved and
thronged
BY men who were not made to lead.
The shoes he wore are broken thonged
And fit another i'll indeed.
With pompous stride we seek the aid
or heroes gone. Oh, vain deceit.
A great mans shoes were never made
For any but a great mans feet.

can only meet such a situation by the
practice of economy and efficiency,
both by the individual and the cor.
poration.
"'The Individual should pay for his
home before he buys an automobile
His wife and daughters should buy
fewer silk and more cotton stockings.
/ use these items simply as illus
trating what | mean by thrift and
economy. Above all. I'VE should not
mortgage the future in order TO buy
luxuries.
"The second need. i.s.. change in
Federal taxation, is equally important.
Federal income taxes must be reduced
to the point where ordinary business
investment will be just as attractive
as investment in non-taxable secur-
tiles. Death taxes must be either
abolished or reduced TO a point where
they will not force man to with
draw money from his business and
put it into marketable securities at
the time of his ripest judgment and
powers
From Edward Hines of Chicago,
president of the large lumber com.
pany bearing his name, comes the
following thought: =.
To-day the Federal Government
alone is decreasing taxation. Every
State with, L think, one exception, is
increasing State, county and local
taxation. This is an especial burden
on business and rests with particular
severity on basic industries, such as
agriculture, coal and lumber. where
the tax on standing timber has in
creased in some States nearly 1,2O0
per cent in Is years.
THE splendid example of the Ma.
tional Government in insisting on
economy and therefore reducing tax
alton. ought TO be followed by the
LEGISLATURES OF the various States

ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS

protrusion of the upper jaw; it in
duces constant flow Of saliva, and
the hands being very often dirty. may
readily carry disease germs to the

sistence on the mothers part do not
break the habit. bitter aloes should
be applied to the fingers.
