"And it got Rose sore-see?
So when we had a couple Of

in a casual way such as any
one would, that I would see him

letters. She's the most to

others so much. She's always
been jealous of me! Always!

Twice Mary walked, heard her
walking rapidly back and forth
in her room, next to hers.
Light from Aunt Willie's
window streamed out on the
Johnson's lawn next door. She
thought of getting up to try
to coax her back to bed, but
maybe it was better to let her
have it out, poor thing.
Her eyes closed.
In her sleep she seemed to
hear the sound of Aunt Willie's
feet running, running away
from life.
Everybody was late to break
fast, and Ma was furious be-
cause Pa, who was starting off
on the road again, insisted on
shaving first.
When Mary and Aunt Willie
came into the kitchen Pa was
leisurely shaving and humming
at the sink, and Ma was making
hot cakes at the smoky griddle
on the stove.
Mary certainly had no appe-
tite. and Aunt Willie didn't seem
to, but Ma made them eat hot
cakes, with plenty of bacon.
Why did she make such a
fuss over breakfast? Nobody
wants a big breakfast! Nobody
wants anything more than Or

would fry bacon, and fuss, and

Mary hadn't had much sleep,
either, but she looked all right,

WASHINGTON, Dec. THE pro-
duce market in the Midwestern dis
trict displayed strong tone during
the last month due mostly to an
extremely light run of shipments,
according to the weekly report of
the Department of Agriculture to-
day.
Total CARROTS of fruit and vege-
tables during the last week of No
vember amounted to less than 10000
a decrease of Is per cent from the
previous week, and approximately
20 per cent below the corresponding
period year ago. Decreases in
Guided most lines except citrus fruits
and various winter truck crops.
Trade in the consuming centers
has been reported dull since the
holiday, and truck holdings are
rather large despite light rail ship
ments.
Produce prices during the initial
week of December held fairly steady
for potatoes, sweet potatoes and
apples, and firm for onions and cab
bage. Since freezing of approx
mately so to go per cent of the crop
in the Florida Everglade section,
snap beans have advanced sharply.
Spinach declined under heavy
supplies, but Midwestern shippers
were hoping for favorable weather
conditions for marketing their crop
in the East. The potato market
showed only a slight change in the
first week of December. Sacked
stock sold from IS cents to $1.05 in
the West and Middle West, and
from IS cents to $105 in Wisconsin
and Michigan shipping sections.
The cabbage market worked into
a stronger position in the East and
Middle West due to an increased de-
mand. Lettuce receipts from Cali

MILLI0N-D0LLAR
INCOMES DROP,
FIGURES SHOW
Small Wage Garner Gets
Larger Share, Treasury
Report Reveals.
By United Press

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Dec. 7. - The
small wage Garner was shown by
Treasury Department figures today
to be getting larger share of the
national income in line with Ad-
ministration efforts to level off
huge incomes.
8he Treasury reported only 80
million-dollar incomes last year,
compared with IS in 1888. Total in
come of the 3,988,269 persons who
filed Federal tax returns in 1884
rose to sI2,456, 262, 900 from the in
come of S10,845 $4,000 reported by
3,660,105 taxpayers in the previous
year.
The figures showed a pronounced
shift in income to the lower classes,
with the latter receiving virtually
all. of the increased income during
the year Names of the million dol
lar recipients were not disclosed but
the Securities and Exchange Com
mission reported details of corpora
ClOn salaries showing nearly o0 cor
poration executives received between
100000 and $685., 10000.
The 80 Million dollar-a-year men
in 1884 reported an aggregate in
come of $56,569 900, on which they
paid taxes of $31,611000, compared
with As having a total income of
$o1 $4,000 and paying taxes of
$25, $4,000 in 1888. In the goob
year, 1929, total of 513 persons
reported million dollar incomes ag-
gregating S1,212O99,O 900. They paid
taxes of $191 ,054,000
Since the 1884 income tax re-
turns were filed the Administrator
has taken new steps to scale down
large incomes. The revenue act of
1885 imposes new surtaxes on large
incomes and seeks to reduce large
fortunes by higher estate and gift
taxes. The new gift taxes go into
effect Jan. 1.
Here's how the American income
has been distributed in the last two
years:

WPA TO RESURRECT
OLD BUILDING PLANS
Colonial Architecture to Be Pre-

By Scripps-Howard Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, Dec. when
John D. Rockefeller jr. began
spending his millions to restore the
famous colonial capital at Will
liamsburg, Va, great difficulty was
encountered in finding authentic
specifications of the original struc-
lures. In most cases few plans
were available.
Future reservations will be less
difficult. WPA is undertaking a
white-collar project which will pro-
vide detailed plans and specifica-
lions of important examples OF

Photogra phic impressions will be
made and so treated as to remain
intact for future generations.
The project will cost 100000 or
