NAVY SKY-PMOTS ARE TWO-FTSTED

Obviously, the mea1y-n1outhed semi-sissy type of cleric would clash badly with the rather rugged Navy existence. A chaplain is a failure unless his men respect him first as an individual.
 Being able to slips on a pair of boxing gloves and swap ,slngs pure ly for exercise purposes, of course with a gunnery officer wouldn't hurt the preachers prestige, for in- stance. { To insure that the fleet gets a well-rounded jolly good fellow, the indoctrination course is studded With ample physical workouts and a variety of subjects totally unrelated to the ministry.

A WEEK OF
THE WAR
A Brief Summary
OF Outstanding
News Events

The Senate passed legislation
to lower the draft age from 20
to 10. The Senate bill did not
conform with the one passed
earlier by the House, however,
so the legislation was sent to
conference to adjust the differ
enceS.
Educational deferments in the
Senate bill would be limited to
high school students in the last
half of their academic year.
The Senate bill would also defer
farmers and farm labor from
military service wherever their
induction would curtail agricul-
tural production, until replace
ments could be found. The bill
would exempt men from Selec-
tive Service Induction after they
have passed their forty-fifth
birthdays.
THE WAR FRONT
Five strong Japanese attempts
to wipe out the American foot
hold on Guadalcanal Island

were launched during the night
of October % and "a, paced by
tanks and covered by a field
artillery barrage, and the fifth
attack was thrown back early

1T is suggested that we make
a patriotic stunt of the coming

past. This time we do not want
soap on store, house or auto
mobile windows in any part OF
the city or business district OF
the removal of property" Mayor
Rankin said.
I'VE need the help of all of the
young people and we have out
lined a stunt for them. After

ask them to ring odor bells anc
instead of saying tricks OF
treats remind the people of the
Importance of saving their tir
cans, scrap metals and rubber

which will be eventually be
picked up" he added.

Of DR.. ]. Richdrd
Olson Is Featured

Inc CeaCnerS OF ScQOol dis
trict 17H were honored by mem
bers of the local Lions club at g
reception at the Masonic temple
last Friday evening.

a picture travel talk by DR.. J

and widely known lecturer or
national parks.
D. L. Egnew, chairman of the
program committee acted as

duced James Torske, president
of the club, who welcomed the
guests.
Supt. E. E. Skeie was then pre-
sented. He introduced the prin-
cipalS of the various schools
who in turn gave the names OF
the teachers.
Before the speaker of the
evening took the floor, the
group sang two verses of Amer
lea, the Beautiful" led by Mrs
Lura P. Strand. Mr.. Egnew ex-
planned that this song was
particularly fitting, since it was
written by a teacher, Kathryn
Lee Bates, who was an instruc-
tor at Wellesley college. She re-
cieved her inspiration for the
song, he said, from a trip to the
West.
Places, visited through the
medium of colored views and
description during DR.. Olson's
talk were eight national parks,
New Orleans, the land 10 Lee
and the Black Hills of South
Dakota.

ments depicted included Vel

WILL HAVE NEW
TOBACCO TAX

Collector of Internal Revenue
Lewis Penwell recently called
attention of cigar and cigarette
dealers and manufacturers to
the fact that the revenue act
of 1912, just enacted, increases
the tax rates on large cigars and
large and small cigarettes, eff
fective Nov. l, 1912.
Mr.. Penwell emphasized the
Importance of all manufacturers
and dealers in these products
taking an actual inventory of
stock on hand at the close of
business on Oct. 81.
The new revenue act imposes
a floor stocks tax on these art
icles, which means that the
difference between the old and
new rates of tax must be paid
with respect to all large cigars
and large and small cigarettes in
the hands of dealers and manu-
%facturers as at the close of
business on Oct. 81. The inven-
tory must include separately
small cigarettes, large cigar
cites and cigars, listed accord
ing to the selling price.
Dealers and manufacturers
should apply Immediately to the
collector of internal revenue,
Helena, for blank floor stocks
tax return forms, which will be
supplied just as soon as they
are received from the govern
ment printer. The inventory fig
ures should be retained for in
sertion in the return form
when received, and also for the
formation of deputy collectors
of internal revenue in verifying
the return and the inventory
The law requires that a COM
plete and accurate return Of
floor stocks taxes shall be flee
with the collector on or before
Dec. 81, 1912, such return to be
accompanied by remittance Of
the floor stocks tax due.
