Yes or No?

Is any change occurring today in
the inclination of the earth's axis?
3. Are hurricanes ever of any bene-
fit?
3. Is it true that caterpillars some
times turn into 4 vegetable growth?
Answers to these questions may be
found:
L. Yes. A very slight change is oc-
curing in the inclination of the
earth's axis. though observations show
that it would scarcely amount to
degree in 6000 years.
.. Yes. Many of the islands of the
sea have a dry side and rainy side
The latter is the side touched by the
constant misunderstanding trade winds
In q hurricane. the sudden changes
in the direction of the wind often
brings rain to the dry side of the
island.
3. No. Caterpillars are sometimes in
tested with a fungus growth, which
after killing the caterpillar, sends VI
its fruiting stalk from the head of thu
dead body, thus making it appear tt

BURLINGTON. N. c., May 2S.--
Does any business man want to en-
ploy a girl who for the last eleven
years has been on her job every day.
doing her work better than the aver
age and not late a single morning in
all that time?
Soon she will be looking for a Job,
and with her record she ought to
have heavy task taking her pick
from a flood of offers.
She is Miss Vallie Griffith, 16, a
senior in the Burlington High School
and one of the champion pupils in
the United States.
For the entire eleven years Of her
school career, approximately 1000
consecutive school days, she has a
perfect attendance record. Her
grads have been higher than the
regular" sort of girl, not a model
nor prodigy She likes fun and
parties and is member of the girls
track and basketball teams.
Luck plus interest are Miss Crit

ut was luck that sickness did not
keep me away" she says. II had
whooping cough and humps before
I started to school. missed mea-
sizes, scarlet fever and the other CHI
dren's ailments. Then liked to 4 IA
to school, so that was not imalrny
ing headaches. toothaches. tummy-
aches and the other excuses by
which one may stay home.
IF a pupil is interested. a good
record usually is the result, believe.
In many cases, failure OF the people
at home to encourage the pupils is
the cause of indifference.
Miss Griffith was five years old
when she formed the habit of getting
up promptly in the morning when
getting-up time arrived.
II got used to it, and never knew
anything olse," she remarks.
There is nothing of the recluse in
this champion schoolgirl. She likes
company When she started In the
first grade. the teacher gave her a
single desk. Although other chill
'lren were seated all around her. she
recalls that she had a horror" of
her lone seat. When she was moved
into a double desk, school became
more cheerful place.
Miss Griffiths mother is a widow.
an damong the peighbors the girl
has the reputation of being help

INCOME TAXES
NOT Affected
BY PUBLICITY
Comparative Gain Over Last
Year Is Shown in
Receipts.

WASHINGTON. May 2s.-Income
tax collections received by the treas
ury during the first year of publicity
for tax returns are running approx.
mately 10 per CEN behind those OF
the previous year.
AS the rates during the present
year are more than 25 per cent lower
than the year before. there has been
a comparative gain in receipts.
During March. 1925. when the first
payments were made on returns
filed with the full knowledge that
they probably would be made pub
lie, the treasury received S43S, 1885,
9S7. as compared with S4S9, 1886 .S07
during March. 1924. In the mean
time. the revenue bill of 1924 carry
ing publicity provisions. and reduc-
ing tax rates from 25 to so per cent.
had become effective.
Receipts to April 80
For the first ten months Of the
present fiscal year. or up to April
80, 1925. the total receipts were
$2.035, 4S6,362, as compared with
$2,270,97 1926 during the ten months
up to April 30, 1924. All collections
during the last ten months were
made under reduced rates. as Con-
gress last June granted a rebate of
% per cent on the 1924 taxes.
The Treasury Department attrib-
utes the present high collections to
the increased prosperity during 1924.
and sees in the continued prosperity
of 1925 a guarantee of even greater
collections next year.
viii Have Surplus
If the present scale Of receipts is
maintained, the Treasury will have a
surplus in excess of $125, 900, GOO on
June 80. This will be double the sur
plus predicted in President Cool
idge's message to Congress last De-
cember, and foreshadows' surplus
running we'll up toward $500, 900, 900
for the fiscal year ending June 80.
1925.
There is no way in which the
effect of publicity for tax returns
can be determined with certainty,
but friends OF the present law point
out that the increased receipts-as-
Stunning the tax rates were the same
closely parallel the trend in states
which made public records Of tax
returns.
