AMAE's PRAYER

Let me live, o Mighty Master,
Such a life as man should know,
tasting triumph and disaster,
Joy-and not too much of woe.
Let me run the gamut over;
Let me fight and love and laugh,
And when I'm beneath the clover,
Let this be my epitaph:-
Here lies one who took his chances
In the busy world of men.
Battled luck and circumstances.
Fought and fell and fought again.
Won sometimes, but did no growing
Lost sometimes, but did not wall.
Took his beating, kept on going,
Never let his courage fail.
He was fallible and human,
Therefore loved and understood
Both his fellow men and women,
Whether good or not SO good,
Kept his spirits undiminished;
Never false to any friend;
Played the game until it finished:
Lived a sportsman to the end"

IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE

1t was conYineingly demonstrated
last week that Wrangell Sentinel
want ads pay. Before the Sentinel
was on the street George Mfyasato,s
bicycle had been located at the In
stitute. The next morning a radio
was brought into Billie's Shop in
response to the notice to bring in
second hand articles for display in
the windows to be sold on eommis-
aion. The radio was followed by 9th
er articles and the outlook now for
the shop is that it has landed
squarely in the commission business.
The ladies handbag found CON
tanning two large brass keys was
claimed by Police officer Chef
Lloyd. The keys belonged to the city
iail and the police office in the fire
station.
G. a. Cooper reports selling the
greater part of the household goods
he advertised last week. and the
prospects are good for the sale of

HARD TO RELIEVE

DIT. Alfred Bilmanis, LatEia's Min
lister TO the United States, who last
summer toured a part Of our coun-
try, has asked the State Department
to refund the taxes he paid on gas
oline in ten states.
The grounds of his request seem
to be a reciprocal agreement be-
tween LatYia and the United States
whereby their Ministers to the two
countries are exempted from such
taxes.
The ten states visited in which
he paid gasoline taxes were: New
Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania.
Tennessee. Alabama. Georgia, Miss
issippi, Louisiana, Arkansas. and
Texas. The bill against Mississippi
Is So cents and the other amounts
are not much larger.
The State Department, of course
desires to comply with the diplo-
matte agreement but is doubtful
about the propriety Of asking the
several states, where the taxes were
paid. to pass special bills approprf-
ating the amounts claimed to the
credit of the United States Treasury.
SO that the Congress in turn, with
out loss TO the United States, may
pass a bill to satisfy the amount
asked for by Doctor Bilmanis.
Some are suggesting an easier
way OF solving this grave diplomatic
problem. They would merely credit
the Mississippi item Of SO cents
plus the similar amounts from the
other nine states, against the war
debt OF $8,178,08O, which Latvia
owes the United States and on
which nothing has been paid for five
years.

GOVERNMENT MONEY REFUSED

It Is reported that followers OF
the Amish faith In Ohio. Pennsyl-
vania, and elsewhere, known also
as the Mennonite sect. do all they
can to avoid "unearned" money
which the Government continues to
force upon them for hogs, wheat,
corn, and potatoes they did not
raise and modern school buildings
they do not want. They refuse to
accept AAA checks on the ground
that the money was not worked for
and therefore corrupt" according
to their stern religion. Moreover.
they hold It Is not right to deprive
the eountry's taxpayers Of their
money for gifts to others, many OF
whom they consider to be less able
TO pay taxes than themselves.
When a Department of Agricul-
ture agent told Robert N. Troyer. OF
MiIIersburg, Ohio. that he was en-
titled to $3.50 for not raising hogs.
Troyer said: 'I am not entitled TO
any money that must come from
the pocket OF a taxpayer less able
to pay than L"
In Pennsylvania a community OF
Mennonites had considerable diff
Guilty in trying to avoid Government
checks TO the amount of $56,600 for
the construction of a fine CONSOLE
dated school building. They would
not agree to plan to dispIaee their
eleven one-room schoolhouses scat
tered over the community with such
a costly building. part Of the con-
Btruetion Of which was to be paid
from taxes paid by others.
Horrified at such modernism in
school building and reckless spend
ing of other peoples money for
them by the Cover m n /,
q committee OF Mennonites of
Lancaster County, Pa, while other
communities were serambliaE Tor
their share OF public money, hied
themselves to Washington to insist
that the Government not help them.
They also held to the same scruples
when oil prospectors offered them
money for oil under their farm. The
money for such oil was too easy,
hence "unearned and corrupt"
So frugal, so Industrious. and thus
prosperous themselves in the face OF
prices for their farm products, they
had difficulty in understanding that
people were actually hungry. Con-
WINGED that such was true. their re-
ligion, which teaches that one
should not allow his fellow man
to starve, motivated fifteen Ohio
Amish families In 1890 to send
enough food to feed two hundred
families In Cleveland.

GOVT TO PROTECT FISHERIES
FROM ALIEN EXPLOITATION

SEATTLE, November Lewis
B. schwellenbaeh. L. S. Senator
from Washington. yesterday told
business men and fishing industry
representatives that the federal
government would not permit the
nationals OF any foreign country to
exploit American fisheries. schwel-
lenback spoke at a meeting of the
Alaska Committee of the Seattle
Chamber of Commerce.
The problem of ending the foreign
threat to our fisheries resources is
a serious and difficult one" schwel-
lenbach told his listeners. but the
government will solve it. It may
take time to accomplish our purpose
The difficulties in the way are com
pick. and no simple easy solution
exists.
Our state department is work
ing industriously and sincerely on
this problem, and If a way can be
found to settle it by diplomatic
means, it will be done that way
Diplomacy is the long and hard
method but it is the surest way to
protect our fish resources from alien
invasion without later repereussions
But regardless of what steps
may be necessary to prevent alien
exploitation of the American fish
cries in the North Pacific, the fish
cries will be protected. Our govern
lment will not permit any outsiders
to come in and ruin a resource
which has been built up by the sac
rifiee and hard work of American
fishermen and packers" Schwellen-
bach said.

a CAKE OF SOAP

At last the loaf of bread, loaded
with fifty-two separate and dis
tineg taxes, has been outdone as the
classic example of New Deal tax
burdens. The Emergency Consumers
Tax Council of New Jersey has now
estimated that an ordinary cake OF
facial soap bears 104 hidden taxes
which amount to 1913 per cent OF
the purchase price.
The council has figured out that
the swarm of hidden taxes on the
cake of soap result from IeVies on
the tailow producer, perfume maker,
chemicals manufacturer, wrapper
factory, soap company, transporta-
ton agency, soap wholesaler and
the retail store.
If the outlandish taxes on one
cake of soap are impressive, what
about the hidden levies on other es-
sentials, including almost every
thing we buy? The taxes are all
there. on the soap, on the bread, on
all food and household supplies
whether we realize 1t or not.
Heavy taxation reduces buying
power. 1t is doing so right now. We
won't have permanent recovery SC
long as the government dips into
everybody's pocket at the rate it
is now doing. In

 A mere bowel movement doesn't get at the cause. It takes those famous Carter's Little Liver Pills to get these two pints of bile flowing freely and make you feel "up and up''. Harmless, aeentle. yet amazing in making bile flow freely. Look for the name Carter's Little Liver Pills on the red pack age. Refuse anything else. Price: 25e.
