DAVEY FIGHTS
TO DEDUCT
INCOME TAX
international News Service

The Davey Tree Expert Com
pany, headed by Gov. Martin l..
Davey of Ohio, intends to contest
an income tax deficiency of
$1,710 for 1880 and SAT- for 1881,
after all.
When the board Of tax appeals
met today to take testimony
from the governors wife, who
was paid $8,916 in salary as
manager of the company and
for which income tax deductions
were made, Mrs. Davey failed to
appear.
Instead the board received a
telegram from Paul H. Davey,
vice president Of the company,
announcing withdrawal Of its Pc
tition for redetermination of the
case on the ground that the
amount Of tax involved did not
justify expense of furth r
hearings.
Accordingly c. Tramell, mem
ber of the board, prepared to
dismiss the case this afternoon.
But a second telegram, signed
by E. L. Bono, counsel for the
company, arrived shortly before
noon, withdrawing the first. The
case was then continued for hear.

BRITAIN SEES
WAR PARTY
WINNER
By H. X. REYNOLDS

LONDON, Nov. 13 G.NS0.
There is every indication that
tomorrow" general election into
which Britain has been forced
by the Ethiopian war, will
return the national government
headed by Stanley Baldwin to
power with a reduced majority,
as the opposition parties today
are badly split and diSorganized.
When Parliament adjourned for
the summer recess in July the
government was disinclined to ap-
peal to the country before the
spring of next year. The admin
istration had been reconstructed
and wished to take little time
to bring before the electorate
concrete domestic reasons for re-
turning it to power.
Only those few months ago the
national government was not at
all safe. The opposition parties
had made-from the government
point of view-dangerouS progress
with the electorate by their use
of the difficult unemployment
situation and particularly with
the cry that as the government
wished to increase the defense
forces it was a War-minded ad
ministration.
Then Came Crisis
Then came the Ethiopian crisis
with the British governments
prominent lead to Geneva in the
cause Of peace. The strongest
weapon in the opposition armory
was snatched from their hands,
broken and trampled underfoot by
the Peace LegionS of Geneva in
the van of which marched the
"war-minded" British government
supported, in a few weeks, by the
opposition parties themselves.
Such is the position in which the
1obor and liberal oppositions find
themselves at the moment when
the country elects parliament
that will begin to transact buSi-
ness before Christmas.
The principal weapons left to
the opposition are:
/. A claim that the government
is taking advantage of the inter
national situation to rush an
election which now promises to
result in its favor;
Shown Under Armed
2. that the government is still
war-minded because it says that
the crisis has shown Great Britain
to be dangerously under armed,
with the result that as soon as
returned to power it will propose
extensive rearmament;
3. that the crisis would not
have arisen had the government
taken its Geneva initiative earlier;
4. that the crisis might not have
arisen had the government not
have engaged in the Ottawa policy
of what the opposition call econ
omic nationalism.
(5) that the governments un'
employment policy has failed.

Gray Hair Is
Good Policy
Ability to Change It's
Color Removes Any
Old-Time Fear.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

nNCE upon time women lived in
~ fear Of a gray shadow. At the
sign of the first gray hair women were
seized with panic. The world would
soon guess their birthdays. The first
gray hair was marked sign of age"
Besides. there were just two paths to
take. One was to do nothing but sit
back be reconciled to lei Father Time
continue painting the gray. The
other was to have the hair dyed or
colored.
Years ago it took a good deal of
courage to take the first step toward
coloring the hair. For one thing, hair
coloring materials we're far from per-
feet. Restoratives often turned the
few gray hairs purple or bright red
or a half dozen different shades-and
| the result was far more of confess
sion than a sprinkling Of gray could
possibly be. Furthermore. as more
gray appeared it became more difficult
to change the hair coloring. The
transition would be too obvious.
| We have made remarkable strides
in hair-coloring materials and meth
DDS. Today women still have the same
| two courses open to them: they can
either let the gray alone or change
the gray to the natural color If they
| let the gray alone (and if they are
very modern and progressive) they un-
doubtedly dramatize the gray. choose
colors that flatter the individual and
at the same time emphasize the dig
nified loveliness of the silver crown.
| If they change matters they have
science completely on their side They
can change the color completely in one
sitting, or they can gradually blend
the gray with the original color.
More and more women are doing this.
The change is not obvious for one
thing the method is very simple for
another.
AS a matter of fact. it is all so
simple that many women who are
| not troubled with one wee gray hair
often experiment in changing their
hair to different shade. But that's
another matter.
Whether or not the hair is per-
mitted to remain gray or the color
changed. makeup colors have helped
materially in completing the picture.
With gray hair, for instance. brown
has been a traditionally hard shade
to wear. But with the proper make
up woman can broaden hG range of
colors. Likewise when the hair is
changed, the right makeup will high
light the skin, make 1t blend better
with the new shade and thus make the
transition less noticeable.

Whether or not you we're born to
the purple" fashion has decreed this
year that it may be worn by all and
sundry. Purplish tones appear in the
collections of many of the important
couturiers: Maggy Rouff uses lus-
cious new tone which ranges from a
dark shade verging on eggplant to a
vivid shade of red violet. Patou has
a new hue called iris" an unusual

Life Growth

Way to Register.
BY ANGELO PATRI.

pie are pleased to say, We'll
when he is older he will be different .
He will change when he is IA. or 81.
or at 30. Fear and hope struggle to
comfort the anxious parents or teach
er. The present condition of the child
is not good. There seems to be no
present way of changing things. May
be tomorrow he will change.
OF course he will change. The child
of today is a different one from that
of tomorrow. but unless there is some
force at work to direct the growth
toward better way the new child will
be no better than the old one. The
selfish spirit will continue to be selfish;
the lazy mind and body will drift on
toward helplessness; the undisciplined
nature will plunge on toward its own
destruction unless an understanding
leader is influencing the growth for
righteousness.
There is no complete overnight
growth. All growth is a struggle
against the forces Of decay. 1t is
always slow and painful. Much of it
is hidden under layers of defense
that disguise it so thoroughly that
only a gifted spirit may discern it.
When one is most discouraged about
the growth of child he has often the
best reason for hope and does not
know it. Teach day by day. Stand
firmly for the standard you have set,
assuring yourself by critical examina-
tion that is fair and just one and
the child must grow to it.
Paul is a day-dreamer. He is
really very bright, but the teacher
says he sits and dreams. Never knows
what the class is doing. In fact. he
does the same thing at home. But
think he will get over it soon. He's
changing, you know"
Maybe he will get over it, but bet
ter do something to help him. When
a child takes refuge in dreams day
after day he is running away from
something Find out what it is that he
fears to face, show him how to master
the difficulty and he will cease the
ay-dreaming. Prolonged day-dream-
ing is dangerous. Any prolonged error
is dangerous for that matter. Keep
teaching.
"Mollie seems very backward for
her age. She can't read and she has
great difficulty in sitting still or paying
attention to anything for more than a
minute. She is SO quick and so nerv-
GUS. But her grandmother says she
will outgrow it,"
Maybe she will, but the chances
are she will not If you have such
child have the specialist make
an examination and report and pro-
ceed at once to correct the condi-
ton. If the child is truly backward
he needs immediate and very direct
teaching. There is no time to waste
in waiting for an overnight growth
that never comes.
There is no sudden growth into
right ways. One stage of growth
merges into the next, supplies the pow
er for the next forward stretch. If
the growth is toward the wrong end,
what then? Life is a school in which
the children skip no grades. They
take them in measured procession.

~ eXcitement-it is really some
thing new under the sun in
the food linel A recently discovered
tropical fruit which looks like a Gu
cumber, tastes like pineapple and ba-
mana and is called "Monstera, -"
which, you know, is Latin for mon
ster! Just why it was named that,
no one seems to know-it is certainly
a mild-looking edible and perfectly
harmless! We learned that the plant
belongs to the elephant ear family"
and grows in the tropics, but can also
be successfully grown here in hot
houses. 1t is climber, has large per-
forated leaves and generally attaches
itself to trees, but is more fruitful if
forced to grow on the ground. The
fruit it bears is green in color until
1t ripens, when it develops a slight
yellow tinge. When the fruit is thor
oughly ripe the outer rind, which is
something like fish scales, comes off
at touch. You will want a few of
