King Georges Dinner was Served
Cold When Guard Arrested Cooks

King George of England waited for
his dinner, one night. because a
Scotch sentry would not permit the
chef to carry the food to the mon
arch. 1t was when King George was
visiting India and had gone to the
province of Nepal. AS it happened
the Maharajah, the native prince who
was King Georges host. also missed
his dinner because the English kings
shadow had fallen upon it.
The royal party was in camp ready
to begin a tiger hunt. King George
walked across the enclosure and
paused to watch the native cooks
prepare the Maharajah's dinner. As
he did so, his shadow fell upon the
food. The natives at once destroyed
it as "unclean", because they believed
the shadow of one, not of their faith,
had contaminated it.
Then King George went to his tent.
and waited for his own dinner. 1t
did not arrive. After long wait, an
officer went to learn the cause. He
found Cameron Highlander with
fixed bayonet, placing long row of
cooks and servants under arrest. The
cooks were unhappy as the steaming
dishes they carried were burning
their fingers. They were talking in
their native dialects and the Scotch
man was replying in his. Neither
understood the other.
'This is the Kings SOUP" said the
head chef.
yell no cross here without per-
nit" returned the soldier
It required direct order from the
commander of the household guards
before the sentry would permit the
food to pass. Ernest Brooks, British
Court Photographer, who relates the
incident in McClure's Magazine, said
career that he was forced to wait
for his dinner, and then to eat cold
meal.

Ever since Its ADMISSION Calllor'
mia has had the community property
system. Eight other states have q
similar system. Community prop
erty' is property accumulated BY
married persons during their mar.
riage. except that which is acquired
by gift. bequest or inheritance.
approximately IS per cent Of all
property in the state is community
property. Such property in Cali
fornia enjoys the most favorable
position in regard to death taxes.
both state and Federal, Of any state
in the Union excepting possibly the
eight other states having q similar
property system) including states
boasting Of no inheritance tax what.
ever. The California community prop.
erty' system is recognized for the pur.
pose of levying Federal estate taxes,
and only one-half Of it is now taxed.
while in Florida the whole estate Of
q decedent is subject to the Federal
levy.
How the Law Works
"California's law expressly pro.
vides that upon the death Of either
husband or wife, testate, only one.
half OF their net community prop
erty' shall be subject to inheritance
taxes. The same exemption applies
upon the death of the husband, in.
testate, while the whole net com.
munity property is totally exempt
from all state inheritance taxation
upon the death of the wife intestate.
The Federal estate tax law now fol.
lows precisely the California law in
this respect.
"As the result Of an amendment
made to the California inheritance
tax law by the 1925 Legislature. this
immunity from the state inheritance
taxes likewise now extends to com.
munity property Of nonresident
married persons. who hereafter take
UP their legal residence in the state.
This puts community property In a
more favorable position regarding
death taxes than exists in any other
state in the Union, with the possible
exception Of the other community
property states. This extension Of
the exemption will add Is per cent to
property in the state coming under
this definition, which means that ap-
proximately so per cent of all prop.

Senator Ralston stood out a =
man among men wherever he w.nt
More than six feet tall he vn. ~"
portioned to At his height His
friends declared he looked. thousht
and acted like Grover Cleveland. He
was a stickler for the CONSTITUTION
and strictly party man.
Born on a farm in Tuscarawos
county, OHIO, on December 1. 1877.
senator Ralston came from a hardy
pioneer stock. His great-grandfather
served IN the Continental army and
was wounded at the battle of RranN
DIVINE. He was of Scotch irish on
cestry, but in his own life the stra; =
of the Scotch lineage was unnar-
most; consequently he was cautious
and deliberate. 'oo'
When the senator was eight yo,rs
old, his father moved to Indiana and
enjoyed the average amount of pros-
perity of a farmer until the panic of
1873 when the farm was lost. Yonny
Ralston became butcher bow. coal
miner, sheep herder, farm lahorer
and school teacher before he took I'm
the study Of law. Wy
There being too many LAWYERS in
his own home place. he set out for
less populated legal fields, settling A.
nally at Lebanon, Indiana. He ear
ly entered into political fights and
gained reputation as a forcefuI
vigorous speaker. After he had serv'
ed as president of the local schoo,
board his friends put him forward
as a candidate for secretary of state
but he was defeated twice for that
office.
Mr.. Ralston's ability to go out
among the people and gain friends
through MS sincerity was recognize
ed, ana In 1872 he was nominated
for governor. During his service in
that office he wiped out the state
debt and got behind the formation ct
the public utilities commission. ar
inheritance tax law, a blue sky Law
and workingmen's compensation
law.
His first chance to prove his metal
came during the street car strike in
Indianapolis in 1918, when ne called
out the state militia to curb rioting.
! Angry strikers crowded around the
state house. Governor Ralston de-
cided to state the situation to them
and against the advice of his friends
faced the mob from the state house
steps. So effectually did he speak
that he soon had the strikers cheer
ing him. and the strike was settled a
short time afterward.
Just as he had applied himself
assidiously to his duties as governor,
so he labored faithfully as a Sena-
tor. He was on the floor almost
constantly and listened with marked
attention to all debates on important
issues, contributing several address
ses on tax and tariff questions.
Mr.. Ralston was a Presbyterian
and Mason. He married twice, his
| first wife dying within a year after
marriage. His second wife was Miss
Jennie Craven of Center Valley, Ind.
BY this union. two sons and a
daughter were born.
