been rather careless and had broken several things

Instead of scolding the boy and then calling up

youngster to put his ball away, measure the broken
scrape away all the dried putty and set new pane OF
glass properly. -
The bov did as he was told. The removal of the
dried putty turned out to be no easy task me ooy IN

INHERITANCE TAN

Opposition to the federal inheritance tax is rolling
up. There is a growing demand for its discontinue
ance in every part of the country. Some action may
be forced in Congress during the winter.
Arguments against the evying OF this tax by the
federal government pretty strong Inc pest argu-
rlent is that the federal government doesn't need te
money and the states do. But there is the counter
argument that some of the states have voluntarily re
nounced the inheritance taX and others are thinking OF
doing so. This introduces an unfair and mlscheVouS
factor into the situation. States levyng the tax may
lose wealth to those that don't. -,
A compromise is suggested III the form OF Dill
which would continue the federal inheritance TAX ana
let the federal government do all the collecting but
would turn over any state the amount that 1t should
have under its own law. That is at least worth think
ing about. 49,
In any event, it would be of doubtful wisdom to
abolish inheritance taxes altogether experience
shows that when handled with good Judgment TINS IS
one of the least Objectionable forms of taxation

WHAT IS A FRESH EGG'

A delegate to a recent butter and egg convention
declared that an egg may still be fresh egg after 1t
has been in storage for year Not so fresh he seems
to mean that it wouldn't hatch, with suitable encour-
agement yet not so stale, either, that it suggests
Matching
Whereupon New York newspaper wants to know
what the butter and egg delegate considers fresh
egg" The subject is confusing. For according to the
newspaper authority fresh egg pretty far down
the line of freshness Grades ranking above It, ne ob
serves as illustrated in the trade strictly fresh
then guaranteed fresh, then Select, then fancy,
and so on until you arrive at the extra fancy jumbo
select"
An ignorant layman-and laying hen, for that
matter-would probably be disposed to start at the
top with fresh eggs" and grade down from that But
maybe laymen and layers don't understand the psy-
chology of the egg trade.
Nevertheless it looks to an outsider if here
would be another good place for Secretary Hoover to
get in some of his simplifying and sandardizing work
