Natures Children
January's Flower
(Galanthus nivalis)

during the days when its leaves
can soak in the sunshine and send
to the bulb nourishment ana violet
reys that will enable the plant to
have its blossoms and carry on.
These early blooming flowers do
not send fragrance on the air to
invite air-minded insects to come
and feast at the fount Of nectar
and golden grains of pollen. No
insect can be found trying to navi-
gate the swift winter winds or even
to move during this cold and bleak
season of the year. The fact is
most Of the insects upon which the
later flowers depend are either in
the egg state or quietly resting in
silk-ined cocoon, inconspicuous
as possible for the good Of the
coming generation.
Bulbs may be obtained from
florists. Many have found 1t salts
factory to plant the snowdrop where
1t will have an opportunity to come
out in January, with sunshine in
abundance to greet 1t and rich soil
during the year to make 1t grow
strong and sturdy. Flowers bloom
ing early are always so welcome
that many flowers lovers have been
paying more and more attention to
the charming little snowdrop of the
winter months. Some of the finest
specimens we have seen were
planted in rock garden in cozy
pockets. They did not interfere with
the summer and autumn plants and
came along when they were the
most appreciated.

State Lottery Urqed

Agitation for the state lottery is
being heard in the Transvaal of
South Africa and indications are
that one will be established with
IN a year. The new administrator
general, j. J. Eienaar, is expected
to favor the idea, and certain
churches may lend their support
or at least withdraw their oppo-
sition. The lottery is to raise funds
for hospital needs.
The question is expected to come
up with the meeting of the Trans
vaal Provincial Council and the
balancing Of the budget is faced.
So serious is the budget condition
that a special hospital tax or a
lottery is necessary. and the coun-
Gil is opposed to additional taxes.

Bruin TwizzIers
BY PROF. j. ID. FLINT.

A professional gambler once got
himself into a jam, and a friend got
him out with some difficulty. There
was one condition attached to the
friends help. and that was that the
gambler must give one-half of
everything he made gambling to the
friend. The idea was that the friend
hoped to cut down the gamblers
gambling by removing some of the
profits. Some time later he caught
the gambler putting a bet of s1OO
even money on horse. He bet the
gambler half of his own share of the
profit that the gambler would lose.
Now, how much did the gambler
win (the horse came in) afteS all
transactions were complete?

Unfair Exemptions
OF Land Taxes Hit
By Citizen Group
Manor Park Unit
Asks Profit-Mokinq
Determine Status

Revision Of the present list Of tax
exempt property in the District was
urged by the Manor Park Citizens
Association at a meeting last night
at the Whittier School.
Removal from the list of all prop
erty except that being used for
strictly non-profit purposes was de-
manded by w. H. Seaquist. There
are in the District enormous tracts
being held by fraternities, churches,
etc., which have been sold to land
development companies. This land
is being held purely for speculative
purposes and is being excluded from
the tax books" he declared.
He proposed special tax commit
tee to determine whether present
tax-exempt land Is legitimately be-
ing used for non-prof1t activities.
Tracing the history of exemption
Of church land from taxes, John S.
Smoot pointed out that frequently
educational institutions are acquired
by religious organizations and oper-
ated for profit although they are
not taxed
Would Classify Property.
Hundreds of acres are being used
as prof1t-making institutions by
non- profit organizations until today
we have tax-exempt property never
intended for that purpose" he
added. There should be a distinc-
ton made between property used
only for religious and fraternal pur-
poses such as Sunday schools, parish
houses and the like, and property
bringing in a profit, he stated.
No charitable organization should
be allowed to hold hundreds of
acres of land vacant and not be
taxed, he said.
The group indorsed the proposal
Of Senator Overton for payment to
the District by the Federal Govern
ment of a sum based on Federal
holdings in the Nations Capital.
The association suggested the Dis
trict assessor should have a voice
in determining the value of such
property.
Although the group was asked by
F. A. Oehm to reiterate its stand
against the passage of the Patman
chain store tax bill, no action was
taken pending formal hearings on
the measure in Congress.
The placing of signs on property
which may be rezoned, specifying
the zoning change requested and the
date Of hearing before the District
Zoning Commission, was urged by
Mr.. Seaquist.
Banquet to Be Arranged.
MIR. Oehm was named chairman of
committee including Mr.. Smoot,
Mr.. Seaquist, Mrs. Arthur Kriemel-
meyer and Miss Elsie Green to meet
with the Whittier Parent Teacher
Association in the near future and
arrange the details of joint ban
quet of the two associations in April.
Characterizing the stop sign at
Fourth and Peabody streets NV.
as unnecessary and "a nuisance and
inconvenience to motorists" the
group asked for it's removed.
The Capital Transit Co. was asked
by the association to remove the
old, "superannuated" buses from
their Fifth street NV. line and
replace them with new ones as soon
as possible. The association also
deplored service on the J-3 bus line.
George R. Lloyd was appointed
chairman of committee including
Mr.. Corbin and George R. Kieferle
to consult with Maj. Ernest w.
Brown, superintendent of police,
concerning the recent increase In
petty robberies in the Manor Park
area.
