THE TWIN CITY WOMEN'S
CIVIC AND BIBLE
STUDY CLUB.
STUDY CLUB

The Twin City Women's Civic
and Bible Study Club met ,Wednes-
day, June %, at the home OF the
president, Mrs. Frank Titus Sle
North st. Adams.
Prayer followed the opening
song, after which the usual routine
of business was taken up. The Sick
Committee gave their report. 1t
was agreed that more attention
would be spent on the sick during
the future. In a past meeting 1t
was decided to deny ourselves OF
meat on Friday. In other words
we were pledged to "fish-it." In the
last meeting we found that very
few of our members had been
really consistent in their denial, so
we agreed to be more staunch in
that particular stand. AS our Presi-
dent said, eff we are not faithful
over a few things, we will not be
faithful over many" Discussion of
new means to increase our treas
ury was undertaken and will be
made public in the near future.
The Bible Study period followed.
Mrs. Dunning was our guest
speaker for the evening. Her sub
iect was on the understanding OF
parallels. "The Parable of the
Vineyard" was the topic specific.
Several gave their version of the
parallels as they understood them.
"The Likeness of God in Christ"
is the subject to be discussed at
the following meeting.
Mrs. Eula Johnson acted as
hostess during our social get
together. Following this vote of
thanks was passed for the guest
speaker, Mrs. Dunning, after which
we adjourned until next Wednes-
day evening.
The club meets Wednesday at 8
D. m. at the home of the Wagner
twins, 321 North St. Adams.
When you go fishing hither and
yon, do not forget the members of
the Twin City Women's Civic and
Bible Study Club and their stand
of eating fish on Friday or no
meat at all.

There occurred a slight mix
I'D. Senator George was ready
to yield the floor.
Senator Hughes, addressing
him directly, said:
81 wanted to ask you a ques-
ton"
Bang, Senator Connally's good
right arm smacked the ivory
gavel head S harply, and he
called Senator Hughes to order.
The Delaware Senator thought
he was being called for not ad-
dressing the President of the
Senate before he questioned the
Senator from Georgia.
But, oh no, that had been all
right.
Senator Connally was calling
attention to the fact that the
Senator had used the personal
pronoun you" in asking his
question: serious infraction Of
the rules against the dignity Of
the Senate. Smilingly Senator
Hughes apologized.
TO SENATOR GEORGE it's
six of one and half-a-dozen of
the other.
In addressing the Senate on
the Presidents veto message, his
tongue slipped and instead Of
saying balance the budget" he
said budget the balance
The galleries burst into laugh
ter. So did the Senate. Senator
George smiled and remarked:
"Well, balance the budget or
budget the balance"
But, queried a gallery god,"
has the Government got any
balance to budget?

Meanwhile, the President has
two important vacancies to fill
on the commission which has

He has a chance to fill both

know where the Washington

reporter told him in Virginia,

One noontime, when the Sen
ate side of the Capitol was
crammed with the visitors who
had hurried up to see how the
Senate was going to get rid Of
the Presidents court plan, a
lady sat all eyes and ears in the
gallery.
Beside her was a man with
clutches also very much interest

of knowing just what it was all
about. At the conclusion Of the
short session, the man turned

ONE OF THE ANGLES which
helped Senator Alben w. Bark

jority leader in the Senate is
that he can be dubbed "the boy
who made good"
At the opening Of this ses-
sion, when the late Senator
Joseph Taylor Robinson was
elected leader in the party eau
Gus, it was decided to change
the procedure and instead Of
voting an assistant leader in
office to leave it up to Senator
Robinson to select his own man.
At a press conference soon
afterward, Senator Robinson an
nounced that he would select a
new man from time to time to
assist him, depending on the
nature of the legislation at
hand.
He argued that it would be a
better system to call upon diff
ferent members of the Senate
who were vitality interested in
certain legislation to help out in
getting it through instead Of
choosing one man to do all the
work.
Senator Barley was the first
man. And he fitted SO well into
the position that there were no
changes made thereafter and he
stayed assistant leader through
consideration of all the legiSla-
ton.

The Senate and the House far apart the
poles on how to soak the six hundred thousand resi-
dents of the National Capital.
The only thing both bodies agree is that the city
will have to take it.
With situation like that existing the only thing
that is certain is that this city, without any representa-
ton in the body which is evyng the taxes will suffer-
The Senate before passing the tax bill put into it pro-
vision for local income tax.
A similar provision had previously been knocked
out by the House by overwhelming vote when the
members got the idea that they might be subject to
the tax.
The Senate has inserted in the bill provision for
an additional tax on unimproved land
similar provision the House had refused to coun-
tenance on the ground that it step toward the
single tax and the House preferred straight increase
in the tax rate on all realty.
These are a few of the differences in the bills as
passed.

either version of the would raise in revenue
