MANY SEWARD K|DDOEs
 RAISE RABBITS AS PETS

l Many Seward residents have talk en to raising rabbits and these may be seen near number of residences 1 in numbers ranging from two to good sized number, the sight of rabbits lodging to and fro within ] the city limits is not an unusual sight, although the animals may be caged.
 It can almost truthfully be said that one sees more rabbits within the city limits than out of the city Riddles, and grownups too, have discovered t h it doesn't take much of ones time to feed the rab- bits and that they can succeed al- most entirely on native grasses and household vegetable scraps. The youngsters, particularly, get big kick out of having the pets which are a great deal different than cat or dog.
 Most of the Seward rabbit-rais- ing devoteeS use wire netting en- closure with box inside to shelter the rabbits from driving winds and also from the wet.
 The rabbits also are delicious when eaten and often can play a large part in the economics of any family

BILL JONES NEEDS MORE INCOME


 children'S school expense will be higher this year than last. Bill looks forward to less income in the regular way. Many industries have shifted to the "zigzag" plan for their employees in an effort to help everyone thru the winter. This means that each employee will have about half as much in come. Prices of clothing and food have come down some, but not in keeping with the "zigzag" income. There will be just as much coal to buy and rent to pay. Bill must have more money than he can expect from his usual sources. He has some money in the saw Iings bank drawing per cent in terest. While it is true that money was put there for a rainy day" lit isn't bringing him any income worth mentioning; and $2O or $40 Tor even $100 of that wouldn't go very far on a rainy day." He needs more money coming in.
 Bill Jones is the average Amer ican. He knows that many a man lin exactly his financial condition has invested part of his money land has made enough return to give him the added income he needed. But Bill knows there is some speculation with every in veStment, no matter what it is or how good it sounds.
 He doesn't know whether he should take any chances on either his savings account or his present income. Of course his savings ac- count is not absolutely safe; he realizes more money has been lost by depositors thru bank failures during the last 10 years than thru any single line of investment other than the stock market crash in 1929. Being a true American and realizing that nothing risked, nothing gained" he likes to take la chance. Bill is a cautious fel- low and wants to- speculate, but he doesn't want to lose his money.
 So he losses aside all the wild eyed" promises and impractical guarantees that flood the mails and seeks out chance to specu- late with the safety of flowing Ioil we'll to fall back on if the well he bets on turns out to be dry. If the new we'll comes in big, Bill should make profit Iof 10 times his investment. If he doesn't he still has his money where it should pay him dividends, over a period of years, twenty times larger than the savings bank interest. And he has the speculative chance of making a real fortune if the new we'll comes in good He wants to speculate with his fingers crossed, as it were, and that is exactly what he does when he accepts our spe- cial Pool offer, and shares in one gusher while we drill for another.
 Write us for full information, but better still-mail US $20, $100, or even $200, and share in our next dividend. If you are like Bill Jones, we might help you. E. M. ThOmassOn & Co.,, Inc. Patterson Bldg,

Color Enormously Given.
In a statement Mr.. Ramsey said
THE press release enormously gave

declared in an illustrated address last
night to members of the Sigma Pi Fra
ternity. These objects. he said, were
meteors. -ta
DR.. Oliver challenged the contentious
of many astronomers, saying It was his
belief, after years Of study, that many
meteors are fragments OF other worlds,
shattered, perhaps, in terrific celestial
collisions. He was convinced, he said,
that many meteors that have fallen on
the earth's surface were not mere left
over chunks OF matter" He said cross
sections of many celestial fragments
showed that they had been formed by
slow geological processes over millions
Of years on the surface of some huge
planet outside the earth's solar system.
1T seems to me-" he said, that we
have here fragments Of the debris of
the great bodies, such as planets or
dead suns. The qualification Is too
elaborate to have occurred except by
slow evolutionary processes"

Bankers Demand Tax Be-

Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CHICAGO, April 80. The $4,000
Chicago school teachers now working
without early prospect Of pay are ex-
pected by the mayor to be joined after
next week by the remaining employees
of this city, including police and fire
men.
while workers enjoy these salaryless
pay days, as the result Of a bare treas
ury. bankers and politicians wage a
tug-of-war over tax reform. Tangled
in the fight are the markings Of a local
political revolution. Until it is settled
creditors of Chicago may scratch for
their money.
At, the base Of Chicagos recurring
financial trouble lies an Anticipated tax
assessing System-one which has been
the very heart of some political ma
chimes. AS the price Of solvency, bank
ers, who already have loaned 1924, 000,-
600 to the city, the schools and the
county, demand that this system be re-
formed by the Legislature now in ses-
sion.
Ask Appointive Assessor.
What they ask appears mild enough.
1t simply is that an appointive assessor
of property values replace So elective
assessors and a board of tax review. and
that d finite Interchangeable dates for as
sessment and collection of taxes be es-
tablisfed
But such a change would take much
OF the political power from taxing.
Under the existing system taxes have
been used to reward and to punish
groups of voters. Their political ef-
1ectiveneSS has been great. fConse-
Quently, politicians fight any attempted
change. Bankers, however, have issued
an ultimatum that the price Of more
borrowing will be reform and unless
they back down as q result of offers to
eject economies In the local govern
ment reform Is likely.
The system broke down in 1928
causing two years delay in tax. collec-
tons. Consequently, 1929 taxes are
falling due on May. Is Of this year. In
addition, 1880 taxes are due in Septem-
Der OF the present year, making the H.
month tax burden on Chicago citizens
over $50o,000,oOo.
Borrowing at Per Cent.
Already the city has spent all of
the 1929 tax money and all Of the
1880 tax money, as well as half Of the
1881 prospective tax money-none of
which has been collected Only by
borrowing at 6 per cent interest has
the city managed TO keep going. A
year ago it took $4,000, 900 in public
subscriptions to provide money for OPP
Grating.
On top Of other worries, officials are
confrOnted with O real tax revolt, in
which taxpayers are refusing to meet
their bills. Unprecedented defaults
have occurred with $4,000 parcels of
property offered at tax sales last year
and more than $50,0O0,000 OF +. 1928
taxes still unpaid.
Banks hold the key to o solution of
the problem, but they hesitate to let
the city have more money until 1t
promises to quit making q political
foot ball Of the tax machinery.
