An Open Letter to Gov. McNutt:
Well, old boy, you sure had a keen
edge on your political ak when you
went after scalps at the state school
for the deaf Of course I realize
that you are not the boss and that
you have to do as you are told, or
you might lose your job, but Why
don't you appoint men who can
handle the jobs?
On June 26 a boy from Technical
high school was sent here to replace
the engineer who had been en-
ployed at the school for twelve
years. He held the job for one day
and then admitted that it was too
much for him. The man sent to
replace him applied to you for a
farm job, but was appointed as en-
gineer, although he had had no ex-
This morning I lost my job as
fireman. Now don't think this is a
sob story, for l can get work some
place. and I am proud to say that
never have sold my vote for a job
or received a job through political
influence. But why do you have to
deceive the men to whom these jobs
go? Every one who comes here
thinks that we work eight hours a
day, when in fact We work twelve
hours day, seven days a week.
Now here are the facts about my
| job. 1 work twelve hours a day,
seven days a week, and make $76.50
month. I am paid once a month.
[ have a wife and six children to
support. My wages average about 81
cents an hour, and since July l the
wage for this job is $685. a month.
I never lost my job because l
voted the Republican ticket, but be-
cause, when filled out your ques-
tionnaire, when asked my politics,
which I think is nobody's business,
I answered None; I vote for the
man, not the party"
A farm manager was sent to the
school to replace the very capable
and efficient man who had worked
here for fourteen years, and who
listed himself on your QUESTIONABLE
as an independent voter The new
man resigned before beginning his

Aged SpinSter

BY MARGARET BRUNER
Deep huddled in a shawl she sits
Her lonely house-po definite goal
in view,
Marked by no special goodness, no
dark sin
Life is lane she somehow
wandered through.
If loves bright shaft ever had
touched her heart,
1t left no softening halo on her face,
Almost she seemed to have grown
counterpart
With things inanimate: A chair or
vase.
Years took their toll; her hearing
long since gone,
The world to her is but a panto-
mine;
The lyric rapture of the birds at
dawn
Comes dinly as a forgotten
rhyme.
She hears not any football on the
walks,
The people pass like phantoms in a
dream
Life has become an empty thing
that mocks
And hurries by, a swift, unneeding
stream.
She knows her morrows will be much
the same
AS all her yesterdays, unless the
breath
OF life should fail; who knows, per-
haps a flame
Will kindle when she meets her
lover, Death.

Q-Do female frogs differ in ap-
pearance from males?
A-The back of the female gen.
orally is browner and has more
spots, and the male is nearly all
green. Both have white bellies
with brown mOttlings. The throat
of the male is yellow, and that of
the female is dirty white, notified
with brown. The ear of the male
is much larger than the eye, and
in the female it is about the same
size as the eye.
Q-Have all the Popes been
Italians?
A-Nearly all have been Italians,
but there have been a few of
French and other nationalities.
Pope Sylvester the second, gen.
orally is regarded as a Spaniard,
though actually born in southern
France. A Holland Dutch Pope
was Adrian VI, Adrian Dodel, born
in Utrecht in 1859. The only
English Pope was Adrian w,
Nicholas Breakspear, created Pope
in 1854. Of the early traditional
Popes, Peter was a Jew, and Vic
tor of Carthage was an African,
but not Negro.
Q-Is gold pure in its native
state?
Alt frequently is alleged with
silver, and sometimes contains
traces of copper and iron.

heart. What's more, I wouldn't give
two figs for any country whose
people had lost that simple desire,
because it would be a country al
ready in state of disintegration.
You can't expect population of
tenants to take much of an interest
n the welfare of the town, the
state, or even he nation in which
they rent. They can move too
easily.
We don't feel any intense loyalty
to a place in which We can own
nothing, and where our roots are
not planted in the soil Real patri-
otism already is dead in a land
where absentee ownership is the
rule.
So it's high time we studied the
flaws in a system that taxes the
home owner out of existence TO
keep politicians In Office.

this way sometimes is associated
with the sudden growth of tumors.
Another dangerous method in
wolves the peeling Of the face with
solutions of carbolic acid, causing an
irritation and crusting. At the same
time adhesive tapes are applied to
force the wrinkled skin into place
so that when healed the wrinkles
will not be visible.
There have been some exceeding
ly unfortunate results in such cases,
including large scars, and, in ad-
dition, contractions Of the skin in
some cases to such point that it
was impossible to close the lips or
shut the eyes.
No one should indulge in such
methods of wrinkle removing with
out an understanding of the ter
rible results that may follow.

Wrinkle 'Removers' Often Are DANGEROUS

This is the last of three articles on
cosmetics.
A MOTHER type of preparation
N much used on the skin is the
wrinkle remover.
In this field particularly there
is vast amount of charlatanism.
It is safe to say no wrinkle re-
mover thus far available is effec-
tive. Most of these are astrin-
gent lotions which give sense of
contraction on drying, but really
do not contract the skin at all.
Preparations have been made
with egg white which stifens on
the skin and gives the woman the
impression that her skin is being
Strengthened out.
From time to time, quacks have
introduced other methods which
are exceedingly dangerous. One was
the injection of paraffin under the
skin, with the idea of raising up
the wrinkled area.
Unfortunately, paraffin injected in

Such a tax would be collected easily. since the
banks now have to make monthly statement
of accounts and collect tax on checks.
The bank could deduct this per cent from
the depositor's balance each month and trans
fer it to the credit of the government. Such
tax would net nearly 100000 900 annually
sum large enough to take care of really
adequate public works program and farm re-
lief projects.

are short and that conditions may
be even worse in the future, as
far as money goes, but here seems
to be the spot for a philanthro-
pist to step in and help.
I believe that money could be
spent in this way about as we'll as
in any way I can conceive. Let's
have the city try to do something

have you heard that remark
And has it ever occurred to you
that if it is true, then you really

Germs the National Wrestling Associa-

At its annual meeting the mat group

The heavyweight boys bidding for
the crown will have to deposit 81 900
