The Devils Go to Church
I'll tell you about the time we
were supposed to attend church in
my home town of F., in western
Australia. Every Sunday morning
at 6 o'clock we had to go. But we
went only as far as the door. See
ing that everyone was sitting in
church, listening to the sermon,
the two of us would buzz off and
select the two best bicycles in the
cycle racks, and then 60 away for
an hour, hell-bent for driving. The
money our father had given us to
put into the collection box we used
for 'lollies or consumption sticks
(cigarettes). Our next plan was to
wait for the first kid who came
out from church after the service
was over, nab him and ask him
what the color of the vestment
was the priest was wearing. Find
ing this out, we put our prayer
books neatly under our arms. Then
we walked home. Nom would be
waiting at the gate of our home.
She would call us to her one at a
time and ask us about the church
service and SO on. Having satisfied
her with the same answer from
both of us, Dad would then say:
I don't know whether you devils
went to church or not. But now
you may go inside and have your
breakfast-and by the way, don't
forget to chew a piece of gum the
next time you have a smoke"
Now, brother devil" the other
of the Two Devils wrote on the
same paper as his brother, you
forgot to mention about the Pain
Sunday when everyone received a
palm leaf after the preaching was
over. We had a heck of a time
running around to the woods cut
ting US a palm leaf each we could
take home and show Nom and
Dad"
Thank you, boys" concluded
after I had received their stories.
Then one of the boys said that it
was nothing at all to thank them
for They would instead thank the

Social Security

A statement from Margaret f.
Bolton manager of the Dayton,
Ohio office of the Social Security
Board, today called attention to
the fact that the Boards local
office is unable to furnish figures
of 1914 earnings for income-tax
purposes.
Miss Bolton said that every year
at this time hundreds of we'll |,
meaning people request statements
of their annual earnings for use il
making out ineome-taa returns
since they know that the Social
Security Board keeps complete
records OF wages paid to workers
whose jobs are covered BY social
security 1t IS from these records
that insurance benefits are calcu-
lated for insured workers when
they retire or for the family Of a
worker If he dies BIT the COM
plete figures for 1914 will not have
reached the Board In time to make
them available for income-tax
returns.
Wages paid In the last three
months Of 1914 were reported to
the Collector of Internal Revenue
In January. Miss Bolton pointed
out. After the millions of reports
have been audited they are for
warded, usually during February
and March, to the accounting Gi-
vision Of the Bureau of Old-Aga
end Survivors Insurance. There
the wage figures will be recorded
la The individual accounts kept for
each worker--for which the Board
maintains the biggest bookkeeping
system Ia the world.
Several hundred thousand wage
items are received every day IN
the Social Security Boards ac-
counting division" Miss Bolton
said, .and consequently 1t will take
until June before all the wage rec
or<is received for 1914 are totalled
for each individual. The Social

q
4 Congress, 7th Ohio District |
i Ii his address to the Joint SEES
zion of Congress in the House |
Chamber last Thursday, in whics
he made q partial report on The
Ynl.a Conference. President Eoose-
velt was ID reality speaking more
10 the millions Of people who were
listening in on their radios than he
was to the national legislators.
The speech was undoubtedly pre-
nared and delivered as the open
ing gun In the Presidents cam
uaign to gain support and ap-
proval, not only Of the Congress,
but OF the majority Of the Ameri-
can people as well, for his diplo-
matte policies, and the peace treaty
and postwar program he will later
submit TO the Senate and the
nation. The speech gave Members
Of Congress but little Information
they did not already have. There
VAS much the President left un-
said. for he frankly told his listen
ars there were matters discussed
and agreements made at Yaita
which he could not or wo1sld nol
reveal at this time. He pointed out
that some Of the Anal decisions
reached at the conference were, OF
necessity, compromises; and ne
seemed TO especially refer 70 the
matter of Poland, stating that
neither he, Stain nor Churchill had
his own way in all matters. but
that each had to give and take. All
Ian all. the Presidents address was
effective and made a generally
good imprcssion-not because o'
| h;s delivery, for it WAS below MS
usual standard but rather because
