UTILITIES PAY BILLS
OF 'TAXLESS' TOWN
Chanute Kan.) Largest City in
Nation without Levy.

By United Press
CHANUTE. Kan, April 17.-By
owning and operating its three ma
ior utilities, Chanute, with 1000
population, has become a taxIess
town, the largest in the country to
achieve such a record.
Profits derived from the munich
pal gas plant, the water plant and
electric light plant have freed
Chanute citizens from payment of
taxes and made possible payment
of the city's bonded debt Public
ownership of the gas and water
plants has been in effect thirty
years.
Money made from operation of
the utilities has been turned back
into city improvements. A memo
rial auditorium, costing $376000 was
erected. A municipal airport, cost
ing $4,000, was developed.
The gas, water and electricity
charges here are rated as among
the lowest in the middle west.
The three plants represent total
investments of $1,266,256. There is
bonded indebtedness of $161, 473
against the water plant.

WAKE UP YOUR
 LIVER BILE- WITHOUT CAL0MEL
And You'll Jump Out of Bed in
 the Morning Karin to Go

If you feel sour and sunk and the world looks punk, don't swallow lot of salts, mineral water, oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine.
 For they can't do it. They only move the bowels and mere movement doesn't get at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
 If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesnt digest. It just decays in the bowels Gas bloats up your stomach. You have q thick, bad taste and your breath Is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out. Your whole system is poisoned.
 It takes those good, old CAMPERS LITTLE LIVER PH Us to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel "up and up." They contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
 But don't ask for liver pills. Ask for Carters Little Liver Pills. Lool. for the name Carters Little Liver Pills on be red label. Resent a substitute. @ 1851 '. M. Co.

SNYDER BAGS BIG DEER

What is said to be the largest deer ever killed on Douglas Island was bagged last Saturday by w.. r. Snyder, local veteran hunter. The animal, a four-year buck, weighed 175 pounds, dressed, when it was brought in after four hours hard packing by Nick Moratoff and John Marin, who were with Snyder. The deer was killed at a point about two miles beyond Mt. Juneau on the opposite side from Douglas. Several other deer were reported seen by the hunters but the one was enough for them.

 "Noise?"
 Exactly" I've been sitting here for an hour and ten minutes, and not once during that time has a vibration tickled these famous ear- drums. Not a tickle. Not even the weary soughing of the immeasur- able sea-"
 She smiled. Its quite all right"
 "Quiet?" He shivered expressi- vely. Its awful"
 You get used to it." said Sam. Let's go in, shall we?"
 She opened the front door into a tiny hall. Directly in front, flight of stairs ran upward at such a precipitous angle that Freddy gasped. Now, those" he said ad- miringly, "are what I call some thing! A playground for the noun tain goat"
 Steep, aren't they? All these old houses have them" She led the way to square room on the right which served as the second of the two living rooms in the house. Freddy removed his hat and coat, lit cigarette, and sank into a chair with a sigh.
 Well" he observed with an air of wonder, "here I am, and who would believe it? Mrs. Munson's boy goes exploring"
 Yes" Sam was watching him curiously. Have you ever before been so far from a subway
 Never" said Freddy emphatical- ly. Tt is a new and terrifying experience"
 I'm honored," Sam remarked. Would you mind telling me what brought you?"
 He sighed. T had a feeling that sooner or later we'd come to that" he said.
 You can hardly blame me, can you?' She shrugged. Its rather surprising, you know. I thought you were in New York or some where gathering news"
 T know. The old world whirls at a dizzy rate. The unexpected is always happening"

 She sighed. Would you mind talking sense?"
 I'm talking the most imperial kind of sense! I'm telling you that something cataclysmic has hap pened. I'm telling you that I, i Freddy Munson, have travelled a matter of four hundred miles for an entirely altruistic purpose. I have no axe to grind and no ap- pies to sell. I'm rushing about do- ing good I've become self-sacri- ficing, saintlike, noble! It's won derful!"
 Its wonderful, all right said Sam, grimly You talk and talk and yet nothing is said. In four words, why did you come?"
 Have it your own way. Be prosaic. T came, since you must know, in order to tell you that your mental processes resemble those of a child of six"
 "Really?" Sam laughed with real amusement. How interesting!" she commented.
 Tt isn't interesting at all," he contradicted severely. Its dis tinctly annoying. Your mental processes have put me to no end of bother"
 She laughed again. I'm sorry, Freddy"
 T doubt if you're sorry at all. He drowned. Then he said abrupt ly: Whats all the shooting about, anyhow? Why the heroics? Why the big fight scene It's all foolish ness. You love this bird Abbott and he loves you. That being the case, why not marry him? Why not act like an adult?"
 Sam answered him in low, even tone, but her face was flushed Look here, Freddy, I hate to be rude, but does 1t occur to you that perhaps you might be putting in? Don't you think that it might be possible don't want to discuss my personal affairs with you-or with anybody"

 Well it was this way. Contrary to expectations, I happened to go back to your native city. While I was there, I heard something. l heard"
 1 T can guess" said Sam quietly. You heard that my engagement to Peak Abbott was broken off"
 "Yes."
 And so you came way down here to see me. Why? It can't do any good, Freddy. You must know that"
 Cant it? I'm not so sure" He looked up at her with grin. "In the first place, Sam, don't get any wrong ideas into your head Don't think that I came down here a-wooing. I didn't. I'm off wcoing permanently. It doesn't agree with me-"
 ] Oh" She frowned. Do you really mean that?" q promise" But I don't understand" Sam said Why did you come at all, i if not for that?"
 "Ah," said Freddy ruefully, there you have it! With uncanny pre- cision you have thrust straight into the vitals of the problem. Why did I come.

Brawn Plu Brains
 Add the name of William Barry Wood, jr., to the candidates for the James E. Sullivan Memorial Medal for 1931-the A. A. us award to the American amateur athlete who "by his performance as a competi- tor and by his example and infIu- ence as an amateur, did most to advance the cause of sportsman ship during the year"
 The all-around brilliance on the gridiron this year of Harvard's captain and quarterback may crown a remarkable collegiate ce- reer with All-America honors.
 Wood is a fine student, a Phi Beta Kappa man, with astonishing poise and balance. He has excelled at every sport he has tried, playing on the varsity hockey and baseball teams as well as three years of varsity football. He is a sensa- tional tennis player, capable of gaining a first ten" rating if he concentrated on this sport.
 Barry radiates class" on or off the gridiron. He has shown that good scholarship and athletic skill can be combined to an extraordin- ary degree. His sportsmanship has won widespread admiration.
 Boy, bring back my ballot and post the name of Barry Wood with that of Francis Ouimet and Els worth Vines as the top three" in sports achievement for 1881!

In your Sport Slants column recently you stated that Syracuse has not candidate for All-Ameri- ca honors. I would like to point cut that Joe Moran, a backfielder on that team, seems to be headed rather strongly in that direction" writes M. J. Quinlan, sports writer on the Niagara Gazette.
 Although the Syracuse elevep has yet to prove any claims to greatness, but it's coming games with Michigan State, Columbia and Colgate, yet Moran has been outstanding in all the Oranges victories thus far and is, believe, about fourth in the national SCOT ing list with total of 68 points.
 Should Syracuse win all it's re- maining games or all but one and, at the same time, should Moran continue his scoring sp.urge, it would appear he could be consid- cred for a second or third team berth at least, if not the AL America.
 Moran is former Niagara Falls high school athlete. He was one of the best backfielders ever produced here since Frank Mount Pleasant Of Tuscarora Reservation here played with the Carlisle Indians.
 Moran still holds the state in- terscholastic pole vault record and is also probably the best 160 pound boxer in intercollegiate circles, win ming IA out of his 15 bouts. In the annual Syracuse Colgate game last year, Moran gained total of 274
