:" There may be good reasons for
these sudden changes. But Christ,

prised to see his modern repre-

Who is to blame for increased
taxes
The war caused an increase in
federal taxes which no one could
prevent, but the government has
been reducing taxes at a rapid rate
The war was used as an excuse for
many rapid increases in city, county
and state taxes. But as matter OF
fact, war activities are responsible
for only,a small part of any increase
III local taxation.
" The people. themselves are largely
to, blame for tax increases about
which they complain. They vote
for tax-raising propositions which
add to the cost of government.
Then when the tax payments, in
Guiding principal and interest, come
due, they kick about the increased
tax rate. If it is the desire OF the
, pI0iic to constantly enlarge the
activity of government into the
industrial, regulatory, research and
administrative fields of private enter
prise, which are entirely outside the
function Of furnishing sound govern
ment for all the people, the tax
payers can only expect a steadily
increasing tax burden.

SCHOOL LUNCHES

From State Dept of Health.
Mothers who are confronted with
the problem of arrangiag nourishing
appetizing lunches for their children
to carry to school every day, will be
interested in the plan described by
Miss c. Ethel Monroe. Advisory
Nurse of the State Department of
Health, and that is being followed in
a number of schools with much
success.
Every mother every tea0ho~ and
every public health nurse knows
Miss Monroe said, that one of the
/ most effective ways of Keeping the
children lat their best, both as to
health and as to progress in school,
| is through the warm, nourishing
lunch in the midd of the d9v. That
and the midday rest are absolute
necessities for first graders and the
lunch is just as important for the
older boys and girls. The problem
is how to go about getting it for the
children who have to carry their
lunch to school,
''In number of schools, the
teachers are following a plan that
was first tried out in some other
states and that is working equally
well here. Because of the difficulty
of preparing food in the schools and
of the cost of the necessary equip
ment and supplies, the children have
been encouraged to brilF foc6
already cooked, from home, carrying
it in the widemouthed pint glass
jar that is familiar to every house
keeper, and arrangements have been
made for heating the food in the jar
in which it is brought to school.
..''All that is needed in the way of
equipment for this purpose is an
ordinary wash boiler, which is fitted
with double row of racks, the
lower one elevated about two inches
from the bottom of the boiler to
prevent the jars from touching the
water which just covers the bottom
Each child has his own jar, marked
with his own name or number
When he reaches school in the
morning, he places his jar with it's
supply of food in its proper place on
one of the racks. During the morn
ing recess, the teacher or one of the
larger boys or girls places the boiler
on the stove, and when the noon
recess comes, and the children have
washed their hands in preparation
for the meal, the food is warmed
through and is ready for them tc
enjoy.
Such things as vegetables, soups.
meat and vegetable stews, cream
soups, combinations of vegetables
lend themselves readily to this plan
Bread and butter, an apple or some
other fruit, or some simple cake
furnish all the trimmings necessary
to complete the meal"

MARYLAND LEADS IN FORESTRY
EDUCATION

1.-The State Dept. of Forestry in
Maryland is leading way in forestry
that will have a tremendous effect
on the next generation" said Charles
Lathrop Pack President OF the
American Tree Association. AS q
feeder to American Forest Week
April "a, Maryland has in her
Junior Forester campaign plan that
should be worked out in every
state" Mr.. Pack continued.
The American Tree Association
has put almost 10000 Forestry
Primers into the state through +. W.
Besley, the State forester and the
school teachers of the State. This
plain phrased booklet on the forestry
situation was published by the
American Tree Association to mark
1926 the semi-centennial OF the first
step in forestry by the u S. Govern
ment. The publication has now
reach 700, 900 copies, so great has
been the demand from educators.
A consignment of the Primers was
sent to J. Frederick Virgin at Elk
ton, Cecil county, as the expert
mental ground for the Junior For
ester movement and Forester Virgin
says the boys are taking to the idea
in fine fashion. He adds, 1.-The most
popular pamphlet going to the boys
is the Forestry Primer"
According to the Maryland plan,
continued Mr.. Pack, 1.-The Junior
Forester must be IL years old, have
a fair standing in school, famillarHe
himself with the forest laws OF his
State, know among other things ten
native trees and the telephone num-
Der of two fire wardens. This is an
admirable ground work.
1.-THE American people must be-
come forestry minded and the place
to begin is where Maryland is be-
ginning. That place is the objective
of the Forestry Primer. w. b.
Greeley, the Chief of the U. S. Forest
Service told the foresters the other
day, the boys in France know for
estry as few boys in the world. The
American boy too must know the
economic value of forests AID the
Maryland boy surely will as result
of what the State Forestry Depart
ment is doing. / hope every boy in
the State earns the Junior Forester
Badge"
According to reports to the Amer
lean Tree Association the semi-cen-
tennial year is the biggest IN an
educational way the country ever
saw. California, Louisiana and Min
nesota have Just voted to permit
amendments to the State Constitu-
tions so forest land may be relieved
from undue taxation until there is
forest crop. In 1928 Pennsylvania
will vote ON a bond issue for
forestry.
