Concert for Patients
C'sted Hospital

The Hell's Gate Steel Band
of Antigua played a concert
for the patients Of the Chris

The Band has thus far given

Several good farms now available.
Both beef and dairy from rs to 600
acres: $4,000 up. JOHN ALLEN

"Why, those people down the road
were offered $4,000 less than they
paid! and for only 4.59 acres, tool"
So we went along in a rosy glow
for several days, with the Robbs
happy as larks in the landed gem
try. But things are tough all over,
only not tough enough in some
departments. Because [ have just
read a long article to the effect
that that venerable British bible,
Burke's Perrage, is issuing its first
new edition in Is years this spring.
What with this and that, things
amt what they used to be in Eng
land, including the landed gentry.
The minimum qualifications for
inclusion in this pleasant category
by Burke's was once 500 acres
and 10 generations of solid family
tree without a blemished Dough.
But taxes, socialism and austen
ity have shaken the old standards
to their roots, and the coming edi-
ton of Burke's landed gentry will
include anyone with 200 acres
who a name his own grandfath-
Ell ora reasonable facsimile.
As you can see, Burke's has
lowered it's sights, but it still has
not drawn a bead on us. We can
ante up the grandfathers in a
pinch, but we are short 1883
acres, and at current prices we

couldn't round up a mortage big
enough for a deal like that any
more than we could throw q bull
by the tail.
1t is no consolation to the Robbs
that Burke's hints that it won't
be adament even about the grand
fathers, just SO long as there are
no recent horse thieves in the fam
lily. But it seems adamant about
the entrance requirements of 200
acres.
"Just where do you thing we
fit in?" | asked Mr.. r. edo you
think maybe we would qualify as
yeoman farmers, or somethin? ?"
Perhaps we could qualify as
yeomen," said the head of Clan
RHobb, "but there is a rumor
around this county that we aren't
farmers. I regard this as purely
technical pettifogging, but maybe

Senate Committee
Approves Pay
Boost For Soldiers

WASHINGTON, March 3. GIN
S)-The senate armed services
committee approved a military pay
boost bill sharply cutting House
voted raises but providing for in
creased living allowances.
Chairman Russell (D) Ca, said
he will seek early Senate action
on the measure, which would raise
military costs by 475,000,000 a
year compared with the House
passed increase of $850,O00 900.
The Senate committe abandon
ed the House bills provision for a
flat increase of 10 per cent in pay
and allowances and provided a
three per cent pay boost and in
creases up to as much as 80 per
cent in some allowances.
The subsistence allowance of all
officers-which would have been
increased $4.20 under the House
bill-was boosted from the pres
ent $42 to $54.
Similarly, the 1925 a day sub
sistence for enlisted men living
away from bases was boosted to
$2.75.
For the first time, the bill pro-
vides greater house rental allow
ances for personnel with two or
more children. There is no in
crease allowed for single enlisted
men or officers.
An officer with two dependents
"a wife and one child-gets a
flat rental increase of SO a
month. With three or more depen-
dents, his increase is $40.
The flat 10 per cent increase
would give pay boosts ranging
from $3.50 for privates to more
