Again words failed him. All that
he could think of was his suit and

coughed, sputtered and cursed.
Finally he managed to get that

I'm this-this funny nosed girl"
Nudge jumped as if she had been
shot. She was very sensitive about
her funny nose with the freckles
across it. There was usually trouble
when her nose was mentioned.
There was this time. Vernita was

She took the flask from his

and ran in her home.
Four days passed before Alvin
found another way to hurt Nudge.
He decided to make her fall in
love with him. He laughed bitterly
at the idea of making a woman
love him. Women naturally loved
him. But he would do anything to
hurt that girl.
The bank closed at twelve on
Saturday and the Watson at two
thirty. Saturday evening was a
grand day to see her. He would
make her love him, then laugh
well grin anyway-at her.
So Alvin, dressed in a blue coat,
white trousers and white shoes
trimmed with blue suede, started
out of ris door to visit Nudge. At
his gate he stopped and stared.
Pal, his big German police dog,
was coming toward him. Pal had

was "Rosita Gonzales of South

mitted her identity.
She said she had come TO Reno
for rest because Jack said Reno

The opening lead by South was

by North, with the king. North
returned the queen Of clubs, which
Mrs. Robertson in the East won with
the ace.
Mrs. Robertson now made very
thoughtful play-instead of taking
the natural finesse in spades, she
led the jack, and, when South re-
fused to cover, took the finesse.
This method of playing the spades
must not be clasSed as a lucky
guess, nor was it a whim just to
take an unnatural fineSSe.
If the queen of trumpS were in

trick, Mrs. Robertson still would be

The Tax Threat
A Club On Local Citizens

With every community in the country striving to reduce
local taxes members of the District subcommittee of the
House Appropriations Committee calmly threaten raise the
rate here.
They assert that unless the Mapes fiscal bills passed
before the appropriation bill prepared the rate must up
from $170 to $190 possibly So.
This threat is simply club being welded for the purpose
Of sitting opposition in the Senate and among citizens to
the niqutou proposals fhered by the Mapes committee
It hoped by threatening to raise the real estate rate to
induce the citizens accept the four tax proposals Of the
Mapes group and let the Federal Government escape from
carrying its just share of local expenses.
Members of the subcommittee do not pretend that
increased expenditures result from the proposed in
in taxes
All they want to do is to cut down the Federal share
$9500000 carried in bills to the meagre suggested
by the Mapes committee
They not willing to let the contest the Mapes bills
be settled on the merits of those measures.
They going to insist using the appropriation bill
and all that carries to force the District into the line of
their selfish reasoning.
There little in the District budget which be cut
they say
But it becomes question of writing the bill down to
the income available after heavy cut in the Federal
buton there several places where slices be made
One of these is the tremendous program for the Municipal
Center forced the District to keep pace with the Federal
building program for which $1600000 is carried in the
budget

"NuiSanceS"
And Army Officers

Our acting engineer commissioner Major Donald DAWSON
has been up Ottawa telling the Canadians how make
their capital federal district.
Washingtonians very proud that he able to tell
neghbor that the District of Columbia graft proof
city.
But reports Of his address say that he declared that the
citizens associations here are times great nuisance with
their many resolutions
If the reports wonder why Major Dawson
has not let his view along this line be generally known
In the city which he, in part, governs.
No doubt citizens associations frequently iksome
to this sterling Army officer who dictates large part
governmental policies
No doubt he finds nconvenient to have the citizens
whom he has authority, object to his actions
No doubt he believes in the full wisdom of his Army train
ng that the citizens should march along like prvates in
army and not dare question the orders of the commander
That be excellent army reasoning but it is scarcely
compatible with the principles of government under which
operate .....
It is natural to wonder Major Dawson in Canada may
not have been speaking out Of pque at the action Of the
citizens associations in forcing revision of his secretly
ceived reorganization of the local engineer department.

Surely he ELSIE ROBINSON
can't believe anything as cock
eyed as. that! He must know
that the thing he is saying,
or doing, is all wrong! He's
just being contrary. Actually
cheaty!
So, of course, you have a
right to- get mad at him, and
YOU get mad-for two reasons.
First, because he's saying or
doing something reprehensible,
and, second, because he isn't
being honest, even to himself.
He isn't sincere.
Imagine That!
For instance, there's the chap
who disagrees with you about
politics., You grew up together
in the same town. You went
to the same school. And you,
yourself, as any sensible person
should, decided to become an
old line Republican. COR maybe
a Democrat). But he, imagine
it! believes in Socialism!
Now how can any sane man
believe in Socialism? He can't.
That's your answer. He's just
showing off! And yet he be-
comes violently angry when you
say he's showing off. He in
sists that he means what he
says. But you know he doesn't.
He can't. And so you refuse to
take him seriously.
Or maybe it's the woman VINO
disagreeS with you about wives
working. Such a nice woman,
and yet she says the most
idiotic things. But you're sure
she can't really believe them.
She's just trying to "be differ
ent."
And so you feel justified in
despising her arguments.
Is that the way you feel
about the other fellows beliefs
when they differ from yours?
Most of us do feel that way.
But it's wrong. There is a GER
tain percentage of hypocrisy,
trickery and show-off smarti-
ness in all human behavior
yours as well as the other fel-
lows.
But, generally speaking, THE
OTHER FELLOW IS JUST tAS
SINCERE AS YOU ARE.
His notions may seem all
