GOLD FOR GOD

THERE lived one time very rich
i king; his wealth increased so rapid
" that he began TO think in terms Of
gold. One evening as he sat alone.
long after his little daughters good
night kiss, he felt a tiny tapping on
his foot. Rubbing his eyes in the sub
dued light TO be convinced he was
not dreaming, he heard a tiny voice
which said, Thou art great, o King,
and rich; my wand and / can give
thee thy one hearts desire. Speak
now. ere / 60" the fairy said.
Give me gold" excitedly spoke the
king. ~Give me the golden touch"
This will be done. At dawn tomorrow
thy touch will turn each thing TO gold
and thoa. oh Midas, viii become
earth's richest king" The fairy cir
cled her tiny wand three times above
her head and disappeared. Can this
be true:" thought the king.
The sun was high when the king
awoke. at is true, IL is truei" he
cried joyfully as he touched his kingly
robes into beautiful golden fabrics.
AS he sat before his morning meal,
his heart grew proud and naughty.
But. alas. his food, too, turned TO gold.
what matters that" he said-'I am
the richest king on earth today!" Just
then his little daughter laughing and
singing, sprang into his arms for her
accustomed morning kiss. He held
her happy little form close to his heart.
But Just one moment and there lay in
his strong arms, his daughter lifeless,
body turned TO gold ''Oh, God" he
cried in anguish, what have 1 done,
what have l donel II is not gold /
need. but Cod he sobbed, falling TO
his knees. Help thou me this day,
the most wretched man in all my king
dom wide" Another gentle tapping on
his sandal brought again the fairy to
his side. take my gold away and
give me Cod" he cried.
1T shall be done" the fairy said,
But tell me first. o King, wherein
real riches lie" From out the depths
of his agonized heart the king replied.
In the heart Of man, in my father
hood. in my people, in my honor and
service TO God and man. Ny goal has
been gold, henceforth it shall be God"
Has America like King Midas been
seeking gold instead Of God? One
statesman recently said OF her, she is
in "the Twentieth century scientifcal-
", but in the Sixteenth. spiritually"
America need seek the abundant life
through no other path, for His is "the
Way. the Truth. and the Light"

gently from the waist. Bodices are
tricky. Sometimes they are merely a
straight band of the fabric held up by
camisole or "shoestring" straps. Again
they are built up to cover the front OF
the throat in deliberately twisted,
draped and winged treatments, with
Iow-back decolletage.
Girls adore black. Let your daugh-
ter wear black in cleaning slipper
satin or black velvet and then tell her
TO have her beau send her flowers
for her hair instead of her corsage
if she wants TO be swish. Daughter
will be very grand in a black slipper
prom frock as pictured. 1t has the high
in-front winglike effect above men,
toned, contrasting the low-cut decol-
letage at the back. The shiny belt Is
allover-stitched, which is the latest
wrinkle for belts.
If your young hopeful is going to
coed college, she will want a few soft
dressmaker-type afternoon dresses. For
tea dancing nothing could be more
ideal than black siIk-satin ensemble.
Don't merely ask the salesman for
satin" For satisfaction in wear and
appearance specify silk satin and in
sist upon 1t. The dress should have a
cowi 7eck-that means glittering clips
to daughter. The jacket should be cut
on the classic lines of her sports jack
ct, with patch pockets and notched
lapels. The skirt should come just be-
low the break of the calf. Worn with
ono of the new baby bonnets of black
silk velvet with ostrich plume tips,
daughter win be devastating to her
date"

HITCH-HIKING FLY
SPREADS DISEASE

The common house fly is a hitch
hiker. However, the fly doesn't both
er TO jerk a thumb and ask a ride !;
IT flies into moving autos or even
trains or airplanes without permits
sion and often travels hundreds of
miles before leaving its chosen We
hicle.
This habit Of flies travelling great
distances on other power than their
own has made local fly eradication
campaigns less effective than the
campaigners hoped. Cases have been
found where a dy carried disease
germs on its legs and body for miles
and infected people in the community
where it settled. No previous cases
of the disease were in existence in
the new community and health au-
thorities could find no other source
of infection than flies.
Repeated warnings Of physicians
and health officials have apparently
failed to instill a proper fear of the
house fly in the average mind. How
ever, more thorough knowledge Of
the habits of a fly would increase
the respect for this tiny insect. ac-
cording to authorities on the subject.
Decent cleanliness in any home
requires protection against the men,
ace Of flies. Whether a fly is home
born or hitch-hiking visitor, he is
danger. Fortunately, an effective
hy-killing program can be conducted
ia any home by the use of reliable
fly spray containing an ample guam
tity Of Pyrethrins, product derived
from Pyrethrum flowers, which Is
death to flies, when sprayed in a fine
mist.

The Pellarra Disease

The pellagra malady dates back In
Europe TO the beginning of the Eight
eenth century. soon after the introduc-
ton of maize inro Spain, where it was
first observed and described by Gaspar
Casal (1691-1759). This work was writ
ten in I735 but not printed until 1872.
The first published report about pei
lagra in the Jurnal de Medicine tParis)
in 1855 was prepared by Francois
Thiery, but based upon Casars expert
ence. Casal called the disease NAL de
la rosa. while the name pellagra orig
mated in Italy.

tremendous vogue Of popularity in

BELATED TAX RULING
Is AGAINST COUNTY
Supreme Court Finds Error in APP
peal by Former Auditor.

Holding that attorneys did not
follow the rules of the court in
naming appellants and appelleeS in
their assignment Of errors, the In
diana Supreme Court yesterday dis
missed an appeal filed in behalf of
Harry Dunn, former county auditor
In an action instituted several
years ago, the county sought TO
collect assessments on corporation
stock owned by Thomas Wiles and
Carl G.. Gibbs. The issue was
whether the state could tax stock of
foreign corporation owned by
residents, but held by a trustee in
another state. The circuit court
ruled adversely but in preparation Of
the appeal the name of MIR. Dunn
was omitted.
Because the intangibles tax passed
by the 1888 Assembly supersedes the
old law and eliminates previous
assessments against intangibles,
Emsley w. Johnson, former county
attorney who represented the
county, today expressed doubt that
a new appeal would be prepared.
