 Berets, toques and turned up brins, worn well back on the head or poised to one side, are leaders among the new mid-Season types. Profile designs with forward move ment are reminiscent of the Phry- gian bonnet.

Urges Tax Payment

H. M. Miller, ex-sheriff of Ashe
county, stated in an interview this
week that he expected to start max
ing up the list of delinquent tax
payers for 1886 during the next
week. This list will be advertised
during the month of May in order
for Mr.. Miller to settle up with the
county and turn the taxbooks over
to the present Sheriff w. E. Miller.
Those who have not paid their
taxes are urged to do so, and those
who have given checks without the
necessary money to back them up
are asked to see that they are paid
off or the lands for which they were
given will also be advertised.
Neither Mr.. Miller nor the county
commissioners want to add the extra
penalty for advertising and they
urge prompt attention to the matter.

Taxes in England
Worse Than Here
Driving Automobiles in the Old
Country Really Is a Very
Expensive Luxury

The British cabinet, surrounded
by every precaution against the pos
sibility of a leakage, learned in Sc
cret session this week how much the
government will need to spend next
year.
British taxpayers were steadying
themselves for bad news in Chan
cellor Neville Chamberlain's budget
announcement to parliament in
which it was expected he would
ask for $4,25O,OOO,OOO revenue
Closely guarded as are budget
plans, common sense tells the Briton
he is going to pay higher income tax
and will have to dig deeper for 9TH
er direct and indirect taxes.
May Hike Gas Tax
The gasoline tax may be increas-
ed. It is now Is cents gallon, max
ing the cost "a cents a gallon. The
horsepower tax on automobiles, re-
duced now to $3.75 a year per horse
power, would be returned to the old
figure of $4.75 or $4.85 which ruled
for many years. Thus, the owner of
25-horsepower automobile would
pay the government $125 a year to
license it.
The general expectation is that
the tax rate on incomes, now $3.50
per cent, will be increased by 1925
per cent. A boost of 2.5 per cent is
discussed, and feared, by some OBJ
servers.
Britain's income tax hits the little
man hard, but in the topmost brack-
cts British millionaires fare better
than American millionaires.

It is "um-hum."

some Soloman could figure out way to get
it to the needy instead of the majority OF its
being grabbed up by those who are able to pull
the most wires.
We personally know of one family now on
relief who have been offered house and small
farm, rent free, with farming on the shares but
who refused it because it was not close enough
to town and the work was too hard. Nor can we
understand how the labor situation can be so
hopeless if thousands can afford to quit jobs
that pay as we'll as automobile factories do and
go on strikes Too much money is dangerous for
those who have never had it. Nothing can make
fool of people any quicker. On the other hand,
those in real need find that nothing can help
brighten their outlook on life more than money,
nor would any of us begrudge these deserving
needy one cent of the billion and half if it is
appropriated.
1t may be true that Mr.. Roosevelt has bear
by the tail and he is in the position of needing
very much to turn loose, but as sure as he does
the bear will devour him. Either way, some
destruction is going to take place at the pace
now set.
More power and wisdom to the representa-
tives who are working on that plan of putting
the governments spending on basis that will
equal it's income!

Grandson of Bryan
Plays Part in Show

Director George Cukor made
promise to John Bryan, the grand
son of William Jennings Bryan, sew
eral months ago, that if he made
good in his first film appearance he
would receive better role in Gu
kor's next picture.
AS Friar John in Romeo and
Juliet" young Bryan did so well
that Cukor kept his promise.
He gave Bryan his second film
role, this time with Greta Carlo and
Robert Taylor in Camille" which
opents two-day engagement at the
Parkway Theatre Monday April 26.
Bryan plays one of three charac-
tiers based upon actual famous per-
sonalities that are included in the
cast of sixty-eight speaking roles;
he portrays the famou French poet
of the early Nineteenth century,
Alfred de Musset.
The role of de Musset is in keep
ing with young Bryan's own ambi-
ton for screen career, to play only
character roles. He had come to Cal
ifornia after participating in several
Eastern Little Theatre movements
several months ago, but had no sue
cess in gaining access to any Of the
major studios.
He met Cukor, who became inter
ested in him and gave him the
'triaP' role in Romeo and Juliet
at M-G-M.
