his honor by the Veterans Club of

Wednesday evening.
A native of Iowa, King attended
Iowa State College from which he
was graduated with the degree
Electrical Engineer in 1909. He
then spent three years in the en-
gineers' training course of the West
inghouse Electrical and Manufac-
turing company in Pittsburg, Penn
sylvania.
In 1912 King accepted position
as instrument inspector for the
Nevada California Electric at Gold
field, New. In three years he was
district engineer of the Nevada divi-
sion for the power company.
Local superintendent of the Cor
'ona Gas and Electric was the next
assignment given King in 1917. He
held this position but few months
and then was made superintendent
at San Bernardino, California.
On June /, 1923, King was pro-
NOTED to the position of district
manager of the Holton Power COM
pany with headquarters at Ell Cen
tro. This position he has held ever
since even though the name of the
company was changed from the
Holton Power company TO the
Southern Sierras Power company on
January /, 1924, and to the Nevada
California Electric corporation on
December l, 1886.
King, who has been prominent
in civic and church affairs in the
valley, lives at 635 Wensley, Ell Cen
tro. His son, John, is a junior al
Pomona College, while his daugh-
ter, Mary, is a sophomore at the

A taxpayer, though single, who
supports and maintains in one
household one or more individuals
who are closely connected with
him by blood relationship, rela-
tionship by marriage, or by adop-
ton and whose right TO exercise
family control and provide Tor
these dependent individuals Is
based upon some moral or legal
obligation is the head of a family,
and entitled to the same exemp-
ton allowed a married person
$2,500. Also he may claim a s40O
credit for each dependent. For
example, a widower who supports
in one household an aged mother
and a daughter II years old Is
entitled to an exemption OF $500
as the head of a family plus a
credit of $400 for each dependent
a total of $4,000 The S400 credit,
however, does not apply TO the
wife or husband of taxpayer,
though one may be totally depen-
dent upon the other.
Several factors are involved IN
determining whether a person who
files a return as the head OF a
family is to be thus classified. The
element of either legal or financial
dependency must exist. A taxpayer
who supports in his home minor
children over whom he exercises
family control is classified as the
head of a family, even though
the children may have an Income
of their own sufficient for their
maintenance. If he does not sup
port them, by reason of their own
income, but does exercise family
control, he cannot be classified as

years ago it was a familiar sight on
the streets of this city, you know,
that wooden cigar store Indian that
heralded to all that tobacco could
he had inside. 1t stood in front Of
the firm of Albert Dahlem, and
with the changing trends of time
was soon discarded from the store
front :. Today it Is still intact and
carries on it's stern visage the mark
of time and weather. It's now the
property Of the late Mr.. Dahlem's
grandson and now reposes idly, its
work done, in the Dahlem barn.
The building in front of which 1t
stood, by the way, is still standing.

Parallel Parking Problem

Parallel parking within the city has brought
about serious problem-one which should be con-
sdered very Additional parking space near the
business section is needed, and there several
places available it would be well to clean them up
and make them safe for parking.
We have heard several kicks because people have
had to carry their purchases long distances owing to
the fact that parking space not available. That,
however is unnecessary for double parking is per-
mitted Authorities have advised US that those who
make purchases may drive up to space in front OF
the place in which they have made their purchases
and park double for period of approximately ten
minutes more, and load their purchases into
their cars This simpfies the matter of carrying
purchases long distances yet it is generally recognz-
ed that more parking space is necessary.
Additional parking space is problem Tor tne
business men as well as the city authorities, and the
matter should be considered and settled very soon.
Easily accessible parking space and easy parking
are both necessary for better business

Questions Pertaining To

had fowl paralysis in my flock
for 8 years previous to this season,
when none showed up. The chick
ems were kept on the same ground
this year, also. What prevented the
flock from developing the disease
this year?
That is one of the mysteries of
fowl paralysis. Conditions some
times indicate that it can be con-
tracted by contact with infected
birds, yet this does not always hap
pen. However, according to our
present information, it seems good
judgment to avoid raising chicks on
old ground and to avoid using for
breeding, flocks that have suffered
from this disease.-Cora Cooke, ex-
tension poultry specialist.
After cooking high bush cranber-
ries in q galvanized boiler i noticed
a black substance in the bottom of
the container. Is this residue pois-
OnOus?
The black material may have
been iron sulphide arising from the
attack of the protein in the fruit on
exposed iron. In that case, no harm
would come from the material. AS a
rule it is not desirable to cook
foods in galvanized containers, for
the acid of the fruit attacks the
zinc and dissolves very appreciable
quantities of it. Colored fruits, such
as cranberries, grapes and black
berries, will form metallic COM
pounds with the pigments and
these, when dry, may be black or at
least have a muddy color. And
while they are not poisonous, the
natural, clear color of the cooked
product is largely lost. I do not
know who could state with certain
ty what the toxic dose of zinc is,
and I do not think the amount of
zinc that would be removed from
a galvanized container would lead
to any toxic symptoms, but it is
just as well to avoid that POSSIBLE
ity by not using such containers for
cooking foods that are to be eaten.

tural biochemistry.
