Business Week is an important trade journal. II
gives this timely advice editorally: Business revival
can come only by buying' buying must come from the
top down. To business men we say. forget the central
bank; but pray for energy and enlightenment among
their leaders. Forget the commercial bank. but make
them loan you some money to do some buying now.
When, with or without their aid, you have filled your
quota then and then only look to the man in the
street to fill his. You will then find that you can
forget all about that, too"
DO you get Il?
Business revival must come from the top down.

Of Brighton, on Hindrances Over

Tried to Live Right
This great preacher OF the last
century in that brilliant and power

against the imputations that have
been made against his character.
He represents him as a man who
through his unpopular calling as

reputation and with all its over
whelming handicaps. had striven 70

There IS much warrant for that
representation. for if Zacchaeus
had been a purDoseful extortloner.
he could hardly have restored four
fold the things that he had taken
from the people dishonesty.
The natural conclusion would be
that his very statement. IF I have

DOUBLING TAXES.

The Bureau Of the Census states,
after a study Of $50 American COM
munities, that the cost of operating
city governments in this country more
than doubled during the ten years
following 1917.
In 1917 per capita payment for oper-
alton and maintenance Of general de-
partments Of these governments was
1907; in 1927 1t was $40.98 and in
1923, s4263. While no official survey
has been made for later years, 1t will
undoubtedly be found that further in
creases occurred In 1929 and 1880.
Waste and inefficiency due to out
NODDED methods and duplication Of
effort on the part of city governments,
make sad hole in the American
pocketbook. NJ
The extension Of government activity
outside the function of governing and
into the field Of business, with tax
exemption privileges for publicly own
cd enterprises, Is largely responsible
for rising tax bills. i.

this organization in maintaining a
library for the entire Island, and the
funds realized from this garden sale

work. The Burton library is the only

good reading for young and old.
Rarely have the large number of

an unusual opportunity to buy such
excellent stock at the reasonable

sale. By purchasing in this manner
they will not only get splendid values,
but the money realized will be invest
ed in books that will give pleasure to
many.

PROPOSED LEGISLATION OF
INTEREST TO AUTO OWNERS

A flat So license fee for automobiles
will be introduced at the coming
session Of the state legislature. The
bill will also carry an additional one
cent gas tax bringing this up to four
cents gallon, and may go to five
cents.
Under the proposed new bill, pri-
yate cars will be taxed So, trucks will
pay an additional SO cents per hun
bred pounds of weight of vehicles;
stage owners will pay an additional
$1.50 per seat of bus.
Another bill of interest to the auto
mobile owners and drivers Will be one
to lift the speed limit but increase the
penalties and more clearly define what
constitutes reckless driving. In the
latter category will be slow driving on
arterial highways, under the proposed
bill. Highway patrolmen find that
slow drivers are responsible for many
accidents on crowded highways during
times Of heavy traffic.

NELs MATTsoN,

With the death of Nels Mattson,
Maury Island lost one of its oldest
citizens, and one, who in his active
years did much to build up every COM
munity in which be lived. A man who
was known for his public spiritedness,
and who left behind ten children who
through their right-living, and think
ing justify the thought for their future
their father at all times evidenced.
For the past few years old age, and
feeble health has removed Mr.. Mattson
from the activities that characterized
his earlier years, and it is doubtful
that even his neighbors realized what
picturesque life he had lived.
Nels Mattson was born in Denmark,
December 3, 1874 Here he grew to
Young manhood, was educated in
medicine, established his practice and
was married to Christina Jensen. To
Them were born five sons. Despite the
fact that Mr.. Mattson had an excellent
practice, a considerable estate, and
was rated as wealthy, as the sons grew
up, and approached the age of COM
pulsory military training he left all
and came to America.
Here the family had varied expert
ences. For time the father prac-
ticed medicine in Racine, Wis, after
taking years work in Chicago Uni
versity to acquaint himself with
methods in America. Later he entered
the Baptist ministry, and for several
years was pastor of church in
Omaha. Unwilling to have his growing
family raised in the city he took up
homestead in one of the Dakotas, later
returning to Wisconsin, where he, and
his five sons opened up chain of
creameries.
The Mattson family became residents
of Maury Island in 1900. Conclusive
evidence of the high regard and
abiding love borne for them by their
children is the fact that with one ex-
ception their children all established
their homes near their parents. Mrs.
Mattson passed away in 1919, and since
that time Mr.. Mattson has continued
to live in the old home, cared for by
his son, James. They were the parents
of 10 children, two of whom died in
infancy.
Mr.. Mattson is survived by six sons
and four daughters, one of whom lives
in California, the others living near
their parents old home; many grand
children and great grandchildren.
Private funeral services were held
last wednesday afternoon Rev. Frctz
officiating. Burial was In the family
lot in the vashon cemetery.

Will Hold Church
Sale Next Saturday

Each day finds bigger and better
values on the list of offerings to be
made at the annual sale of the Service
Guild of the Vashon Methodist church
TO be held at the Island Club next
Saturday afternoon and evening. One
will be able to purchase everything
from radio to a bird cage at the
rummage sale.
At the various booths there will be
fancy work of every kind, as well as
more utilitarian articles of wearing
apparel.
With rock gardens growing more
popular, and the demand for rock
plants increasing it is fortunate that
such fine line of them can be offer
ed at this sale. Will J. Smith, special
izing in these plants has donated
forty varieties. In addition other
plants, bulbs, and seeds will be for
sale.
To please the inner man is also a
great necessity, SO although the men
will probably not be 'aterested in the
bird cages, slumber robes, lace edged
hankies, etc., they will undoubtedly be
very much pleased with the excellent
dinner which the ladies will begin
serving at $50, continuing until the
supply of food is exhausted.

ISLAND PEOPLE HAVE
THRILLING TRIP TO IDAHO

Last Saturday Mr.. and Mrs. Howard
Hansen had a thrill that they will not
soon forget. AS they were returning
from Idaho, by plane, they encountered
q fog so dense. while coming down the
Columbia river, that over the Cascade
Locks they were forced almost down
to the water.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hansen left the Island
Thursday afternoon for Chehalis,
where Mrs. Hansen's parents, Mr.. and
Mrs A. G. st. Johns, live. On Friday
they took off for Lewiston in one of
Mr.. st. Johns planes, q Ryan. The
day was perfect, and at one time the
party, consisting OF Mr.. and Mrs. Han
sen, Mr.. st. Johns and the pilot, could
see at one time five large mountain
peaks, Rainier. st. Helens, Hood,
Adams and jefferson. The trip from
Chehalis to Lewiston was made In
three and three-quarters hours.
After attending the wedding Of Mr..
Harold ST. Johns and Miss Eloise
Quilliams at Lewiston, the party, with
the addition Of Mrs. A. g. st. Johns,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Harold ST. Johns
started back for Chehalis, the elder
Mr.. ST. Johns and the pilot In two
passenger plane, and the others in the
Ryan. According to all accounts the
two planes encountered every variety
of weather Oregon keeps in reserve
for visitors, and there were thrills
aplenty. The densest fog was en-
countered at the Cascade Locks. It
was impossible to fly UP over the
mountains, so the only safe course was
down the Columbia, underneath the
fog. Mr.. Harold st. Johns Is an ex-
pert pilot, but for his passengers. who
were making long trip for the first
time there were enough moments OF
anxiety. The return trip was made in
four and quarter hours.

ed.
vashon went to Moran's five yard
line but failed to score.
In the second half, the field was a

the players.
It looked as though Vasfon would be
held scoreless again, but late In the
last quarter, they carried the ball to
the 13-yard line only to close 1t on
downs.
However, vashon's center blocked
punt, the ball rolling back of the goal
line where Pete saryold fell on it for
q touchdown. The try for point failed.
: The game ended at to 6, a few
minutes later, after vashon had held
Moran for four downs on vashons
six yard line.
