Thousands find directions pictured above relieve
both pains and sore throat accompanying colds.

Don't wait if you even suspect you
are catching cold. At the first sign,
follow the directions in the pictures
above-the simplest and among the
most effective methods known to
modern science.
See Your Doctor. Even though
he may wholeheartedly approve
using Bayer Aspirin to relieve
painful symptoms, you should not
fail to see your family physician,
because many colds may lead to
serious consequences. Largely with
medical approval, this simple.
scientific method of relief has taken
the place of old-fashioned strong
medicine for colds, which may
upset the system. Literally millions
have adopted it.
Try this way. You will say it is
unequalled, WI are sure. When you

FEW WORDS ABOUT
FEDERAL TAX BILL
MORE YOU PAY IN TAXES.
LESS YOU'LL HAVE FOR
LIVING COSTS
By LUcREcE HUDGrNs
APP rpmsure Service Writer

WASHINGTON, Oct 2-lf
you really have a streak Of Polly
anna in your makeup, you can
look at the new federal tax bill
this ways The more you pay in
taxes, the less you win have left
to pay for living costs. i -
Does thai sound like scrambled
economies? Well, the way it
works out, if you don't have as
much money to spend, you don't
buy as much and therefore you
keep down the demand. Less de-
mand, less reason for higher
prices.
That. friends, is the silver liza
ing in the greatest tax bill this
country ever has faced Here are
a few more crumbs:
cigsret smokers, who already
pay 6iz cents tax to Uncle Sam
on every package they buy, will
pay no new tax.
No Tax On Prositl
Also, while the tax was raised
on wines and liquors, beer came
out unscathed.
The federal tax on gasoline re-
mains the same. too.
And if you think you viii have
it tough working on the night
shift in a defense plant, paying
out good chunk of your income
for taxes, you can be thankful
you aren't the big guy who runs
the outfit.
All of the corporation heads
put together are going to have to
chip in $1,382, 100000 for the
federal treasury.
Jalopies Get II. Too
And if you've been feeling bad
ly about hidden taxes, here's an
excise tax the boys in Congress
left right out in the open. It's
the new SIS use-tax on automo-
biles, which will fall on the meek
as well as the vain.
The schoolboy with the $50
jalopy viii pay the same use
tax on his car as the movie di-
rector with a custom-built town
car.

RIGHT AND LEFT HAND
TESTS ARE CONDUCTED
BY HOWARD w. BLAKEsLEE
Ap Science Editor - %

NEW HAVEN. Conn. Oct a.
Yale's chimpanzees. which rate
closest to human beings among
the animals, give some evidence
that man rather than nature in
vented right-handedness.
Glen Finch of the Yale Pri-
mate Laboratories in $4,000 in
dividual chimp tests found that
the animals almost equally di-
vided between left-handed and
right-handed.
He used 80 animals, each of
which was given 800 trials. They
reached one hand or the other
out of a hole in a cage to get
food. Sometimes it was merely
a matter of just sticking out a
fist and grabbing.
But in other tests, the out
stretched fist had to do some ex-
pert opening of a closed metal
box to get the food.
Either way made no difference
to the ehimps. Most of them were
either left-handed or right-hand-
ed and stayed that way. Nine OF
the animals used the r-.!ht hand
more than 80 per cent of the
time. Nine others used the LEFT
more than 80 per cent.
Five Of them were decidedly
ambidextrous. Ten of the ami.
mails showed ability to switch tc
the other hand when they want.

First Complete County History
Written in Manassas by W.P.A.
Scattered Dutu
Took Two Years
To Assemble

Compiled as Virginia Writers
Project of the Work Projects Ad-
ministration. a book claimed to be
the first complete history of Prince
William County (Va) was published
today. under the sponsorship of the
Bethlehem Good Housekeeping Club
of Manassas.
Edited by Mrs. Eudora Ramsey
Richardson, supervisor of Virginia
Writers Proects, the book is called
Prince William. the Story of Its
People and It's Places" 1t gives
detailed account of the county's his
tory and it is expected to prove
valuable as a source of reference.
Research workers delved into old
records. archives and rare docu-
ments to produce the book. which
contains such things as a complete
list of more than TOO taxpayers in
the county for the year 1888, and the
roster of about 900 Prince William
troops in the Confederate Army.
The object of the project is to
make available in one volume the
valuable scattered data on the
formation and development of this
county. Over 1000 names connected
with the past and present history of
Prince William are mentioned in
the book.
The county was formed from King
George and Stafford Counties in
1871. the book states. The name was
given in honor of a 10-year-old son
of King George II. then monarch of
England.
The narrative discloses that Prince
William citizens repeatedly figured
in the conflicts that marked the
early history of the country. Troops
from the county participated in the
French and Indian War and the
American Revolution. Gen. Brad
docks army passed through the Sec
ton en- route to his final encounter.
In Prince William the first company
of minutemen in Virginia was
formed. Later the county was
proud to give to the Continental
Army one of its most brilliant Off
cers-Gen. Henry Light Horse
Harry Lee" father of Gen. Robert
E. Lee.
The book recounts the we'll known
history of the area around Manassas,
county seat of Prince William, dur
ing the War Between the States.
