PROTECT CHILDREN FROM GUNS

Boys will be boys but parents can very
often avoid tragedy by using more care
in teaching them the danger of common
place things.
Not long ago, in Illinois, a small boy
tried to start fire with gasoline. The
explosion killed him and seriously iniur-
ed his 6-year-old brother. Unfortunately,
the little boy is dead, but are there par
ents in Key West who permit their chill
dren to use oil and gasoline in starting
fires? If so, is it not possible to stop the
custom, and maybe. save little life?
It is not unusual to read in the news
papers, that youngsters get hold of fire
arms and probably, without understand
ing the nature of their act, kill some
body. In Pennsylvania, not long ago, two
little boys got into an argument and one
shot the other with pistol The killer
was only six years old. Who imagines
for a minute that the tot understood the
effect of his pistol-pointing and that he
really had murder in his heart?
Parents in Key West and everywhere,
should be very careful to keep pistols,
rifles and shotguns out of the reach of
children. Certainly, none of these should
ever be-. kept loaded. Moreover, they
should never fail to instruct their children
against the danger of playing with such
weapons.

Education should train in the art of
living with ones fellow men.
NOT BY BREAD ALONE

Life is not to be spent entirely in the
pursuit of serious ends but neither should
it be devoted exclusively to the pleasures
of the moment.
The individual must, of necessity, con-
slider the ultimate end of man even if the
present condition Of the human race COM
pels attention to other than eternal OBJ
jectives.
The organization of society today
forces men and women to work for ma
terial gains. This pressure often causes
some of them to forget that earning a liv-
ing, important as that is, cannot be the sole
endeavor of individuals.
Many years ago, it was spoken, MAN
shall not live by bread alone" and the
application of that admonition in shaping
our earthly life should be diligently at
tended to by every one of u.s.
Men and women should not neglect
their physical and mental development,
but neither should they overlook their
spiritual advancement. Those who be-
lieve in the Immortality of the. spirit should
be fortified against yielding to the temp
tations of the flesh.

THE ULTIMATE CONSUMER

A city commissioner, in favoring the
imposition of gasoline tax to pay for the
construction of city stadium, asserted
that only two gasoline agents had opposed
the proposal, and then, as though he was
revealing long-hidden truth, added that
the ultimate consumer would pay, the tax.
Who else pays taxes. aside from the
income tax, but the ultimate consumer?
Isn't the ultimate consumer now loaded so
heavily with taxation he is tottering under
the burden? He pays tax on everything
he buys, including the necessities of life
More than "a percent of his earnings, on
an average, is paid in taxes Of "a hundred
varieties.
But the commissioner missed the point
of the proposed tax on gasoline. He said
that the ultimate consumer will pay it, but
he should have explained that only seq
ment of consumers will pay the tax. In
other words, the proposed tax is class
legislation. Only the users of gasoline,
chiefly automobile owners, will be called
upon to pay tax for something that will
be credit to all residents.
Why make any particular class of
residents foot the bill? AS all residents
will be benefited, directly or indirectly, in
having stadium that will be credit to
the community as whole. why not i'm
pose tax that will reach every resident of
Key West?
Doesn't the commissioner realize that
the owner of an automobile, considering
the amount of his Investment, pays far
more taxes than the owner of anything
else. AS to the gasoline he uses, he pays
two direct taxes on it and many processing
taxes that the companies which produce
gasoline hand down to the ultimate con-
sumner.

DEACON STREET had long

houses were all Of . uniform
ugliness and were long past their
prime. The inside OF Number 50
was not as forbidding as the out-
side. but the apparent neatness
was that of a housekeeper whose
method of tidying up is limited
to sticking odds and ends IN
drawers and behind doors.
Like her house, there were few
pretentions about Fiji Warnock.
Such character as she possessed
could be read on. her face. and
could be described in one word,
"Avarice." Most of her LIT. had
been spent wanting things she
never got, and from morning till
night, she had never ceased be-
rating her husband for his failure
to provide her with what she
termed the simple Injuries of
life. The years had enabled Ben
Warnock to adapt himself COM
pletely to her constant ragging;
in fact, he rarely heard her. so
well had he trained himself.
It was barely twenty minutes
to ten when Fifi heard the sound
of feet on the veranda. Not wait

opened the door.
