Taxes Raise Match
Prices In Ell Salvador.

Patria, San Salvador.-We warned our
readers yesterday that the price OF
matches was likely to mount immedi-
ately, due to the new and heavier
taxes placed upon them by the gov
eminent. Today finds our supposition
verified by the official announcement
that hereafter the small boxes will cost
S centavos (about a nickeD each. We
trust the intimation of this summary
was so sufficiently anterior to the event
that most of our patrons were enabled
to purchase fairly comfortable stocks at
the former rate.

immigration into Palestine. The letter
tries to prove that the Balfour declara-
ton has no value as Palestine was pre-

they therefore demand that immigra-

Manchukuo Colonists
Find Tasks Hard.
Manchuria Daily News, Dairen.-
First experiments in placing japanese
immigrants on the soil of Manchukuo
have shown the authorities that the
business Of moving population is not a
simple matter Of transportation: Young
men, lured by the prospects OF foreign
travel, accept invitations to emigrate to
another cline, but when they find them
selves planted in the backwoodS. far
from the amenities and excitements OF
city life, all the glamour wears of and
the frontiersmen abandon their plows.
Canada, Australia and Africa have
had great deal Of experience with i'm
migrants, with the good old kind that
went into the west with half sack OF
flour and a side of bacon. hoping to
live of the country, down to the mod
ern assisted farmer. The sturdier breed
has died of. and it seems the latest
generation must have jam on 1t. The
modern is given preliminary instruction
on a farm in his own country, thor
oughly examined by doctor (not a
psychologist). given passage to the new
country, afforded some training with an
established farmer and finally put on
a tract Of land that has been partly
,plcwed, where a house already exists
and where some cattle, implements and
a stock of food are at hand.
Immigration nowadays is a feather
bed affair, and the new farmers write
heart-rending letters home about the
lack of baths and intelligent company,
although the feathereo and furred
neighbors probably are superior in in
telligence.

constitutional amendment granting
power to the Federal Government and
to the States to tax future issues Of all
States or subdivisions thereof"
The first step, Mr.. Lonergan said,
would be easier, but not so beneficial,
since it would apply only to future
two measures, one a bill to levy tax
on all future issues Of Government Sc
curities, and the other q constitutional
amendment authorizing . tax on all
Government securities.

Opponents of the proposed change In
the Constitution permitting the taxation
Of interest on all Government securities
doubtless will raise the cry that here
promises. But supporters Of the pro-
posal viii assert that the evil grew up
when the tax exemption was granted
in regard to the interest on Govern
ment securities; that the evil has
worked in several directions, enabling
great wealth to escape taxation, lead
Ing governments, State and Federal,
into extravagance because the practice
made it easy to raise money, and keep
ing money that would ordinarily 60 into
commerce and trade and industry out
Of those channels.

to do.
1t furnished a favorite amusement
to drive down to the station, watch the
trains roll in, comment on the size OF
the engine and the number of airs and
note the appearance of passengers who
alighted.
All this would have been incompre-
hensible to residents of older commu-
mites far removed from memories OF
pioneer days. There was nothing strange
about it to those living there. Gone now
forever were the covered wagon and
the stagecoach that had heretofore
furnished the connecting link between
the states" as it was generally termed,
and to intervening points. It seemed
almost too good to be true that now
trips in that direction could be made
at an unprecedented rate of speed as
compared with old modes of travel, and
the reader may be Jul that those liv-
ing at Helena were quick to observe the
difference. I quote from the Herald of
Aug. 80 in proof of the statement:
THE trip to the Geysers which the
local staff Of the Herald and a party of
ladies and gentlemen made on horse
back and with pack mules from Fort
Ellis in 1873, when it took them -four
days over a bride trail from that point
to reach the Mammoth Hot springs, is
now made from Helena to the springs
by rail and coach in less than 16
hours"
People Well Travelled
This information regarding the coach
trip was given the Herald reporter by
Mike Renig, who had just returned
from there. His reminder of the past
was the stagecoach that carried pas
sengers from Gardiner to the springs.
A stranger visiting Helena at this
time might have thought enthusiasm
Of its citizens at the coming of the
Northern Pacific arose from their lack
of knowledge of railroads. In this sup
position he would have been mistaken.
Residents of Helena were great tray
elers, even when it took two weeks Of
stage journeying by day and night to
reach a railroad. They we're quite IA
miliar with railroads elsewhere, but
not at Helena. One in the Rockies was
still a novelty.
Many years had elapsed since a
transcontinental road had been built,
and the first one came in the nature
of a compromise. The route selected
was determined upon. not as the best.
but as lying midway between north
and south.

Text: | am the light Of the world
John 8:12.
Sin cast a terrible pail over the
world. All human lights failed to dis
perse it. Philosophy did its best but
failed. Ancient religions were helpful
but unequal to the ~exigencies. The
light Of prophecy was helpful only in
that it pointed to the coming Of the
LIGHT! Isaiah had a glorious vision.
So vivid was it and SO great vas his
faith in it's fulfillment that he cried"
Arise and shine, for thy light is
comel" He exclaimed, Also" The peo-
pie that sat in darkness have seen a
great light, and unto those in the
shadow Of death light is sprung up
unto them" Then came John. the
Baptist Of whom John the apostle
declared" He was not that Light but
was sent to bear witness Of that
Light.
Jesus the Light means Jesus tn
Enlightener, the giver, the brighter
Of Highland the dispenser Of light.
He opened the blinded eyes Of 11oT
but He also opened mems spiritual
eyes. He enlightened men as to In
man relations, teaching them the
lessons Of truth, justice, equity, sym
pathy, mercy, charity, b%enevolence,
tolerance, forgiveness - and LOVE-
For human adjustments and perpe-
tuation Of the amicable relations be-
tween man and man, He gave US the
Golden Rule" His inimicable form
ula for social righteousness Jesus
enlightened and enlightens concern
ing God, revealing Him as a tender,
loving, forgiving, heavenly Father.
Yes, in all things needful and all
things concerning human destiny
Jesus is, indeed, THE LIGHT OF
THE WORLD! And it is Johns testi-
mony that "This is the true light
which lighteth every man coming in
to the world.

RESOLUTION

We, the Colored Citizens Of Oma-
ha, are using this means Of express
ing our appreciation for the great
work rendered our Race group by
Miss Esther Johnson, chief officer Of
the Juvenile Department Of our City
Miss Johnson was fair and impartial
in dealing with our group. 1t was not
with her the color of the individual,
but rather what was best to do to
improve the moral and economical
cnditions Of the subject.
Therefore, be it resolved wherefore
it pleased Almighty God to call her
from the Earthly Life Of sacrifice
and service Of Unfortunate Human
ity to her Reward in They Kingdom.
Be it resolved that whereas she
gave the best years Of her life in
rendering service to Humanity as size
always stood for Right and Fair play
as she understood Right and planted
flowers instead of thistles into the
burden heart by which means she at
tempted to add to their lives the hope
of a brighter future. Whereas, in the
course of nature Buds and Blossoms
always fall with ripened fruit which
indicates that we all must ms~ the
journey to the End and because she
had the courage to suffer and tt
serve a Righteous Reward awaits
her labor.
Therefore, we know that words are
feeble substitutes in this hour OF
grief to express to her loved ones oul
sympathy as a Race. Therefore, we
commend them to the God Of all the
Universe, who alone can soothe thei,
hearts and give them c~onsoation ir
this hour of grief.
Yours in the Deepest Sympathy

THE DEVIL, THE DRINK, AND

A woman Of So was murdered by
another woman Of AZ. They had a
dance. The devil and the drinks were
there They got very happy and dis
cretisn flew away. The woman Of
AZ was accused Of sitting on the lap
of another woman's husband. 1t was
said that for that reason this wife
made her husband 60 home. The
children Of the accused woman asked
their mother concerning the rumor.
The older oma was accused Of cir
~culating the report. The accused wo-
man went to the house of this older
one and demanded a retraction which
was refused. There was trouble and
the younger woman hit the older one
on the head with a lantern-and the
blow killed her. 1t was true as al
ways it is, that the devil will turn up
wherever the drink and the dance
may be found. These influences have
ever been destructive and will ever be,
despite the modern trend Of things.
Yes, destructive are THE DEVIL,

physical development are eating and
sleeping 1t used to be that children
were not fed the same food as the
parents; now, there Is no difference
as to kind nor quantity. Our parents
were especially careful to see that
the children did not eat heavy things
like meat, and some vegetables, at
night. Now children SIT at the table
at night and eat just anything. But,
while this is true, it j. equally true
that thousands Of these little heavy
eaters have chronic gastric troubles.
1t seems unreasonable to expect the
delicate digestive organs Of a child TO-
do the work Of those Of an adult 1t
i just unreasonable to ever think 50.
Now, as to sleeping, children were
put to BED. The little fellows before
dark and the older ones at an early
hour in the evening. But, today, they
remain up and play-often they
m~onopolize the conversations OF then
elders. I am thinking of title child Of
two years who may be found" going
strong" at II o'clock almost any
night. This over eating and the late
hours causing loss Of sleep and rest
are responsible for h e gastric
troubles and the eryou condition Of
thousands of children. More care,
more sensible feeding, more rest and
sleep would mean fewer doctors
bills, fewer sleepless nights for the
parents, and better health for the
children. The fact that children were
healthier and stronger before we had
all of our wonderful conveniences j.
attributable to the indulgence Of par
onts in these vital things. Looking
back, l consider the old ways better
than the new.

sage from Eph. 4:3O. "And Grieve
Not The Holy Spirit Whereby We are
Sealed Unto The Day Of Redemption.
This message warned against the
careless living Of people who by such
a life grieves the Holy Spirit. The
pastor holds that God expects every
one Of his children to live above sin.

lied a bible institute, which should
be productive Of much good. There
was never a time when people need
ed to know the bible more than now.

brought US a great message on Christ

good things he said, was "a great
many people accused preachers Of
throwing rocks from the pulpit, if a

worry about how many rocks were
