Thoughts on Life
Emperor Moth
By DR.. JOHN HOLLAND

moths discovered that he did not
have an Emperor moth in his col
lection. He hunted far and wide
but could not find a cocoon. Then
one late autumn day he found an
Emperor cocoon hanging to a little
limb in some shrubbery.
With great interest he took it into
his den, and watched impatiently
for the Springtime. At long last
he detected signs of motion in the
cocoon, and in a few days found a
small hole which the reviving moth
had cut for air.
He felt so sorry for the moth that
he though he would make it easier
for it. Taking pair of nail scissors,
he slit one side of the cocoon.
Out came the moth, and fluttered
helplessly on a cloth he had spread
under it. The moth never flew. The
butterfly-fan went to an entomol-
ogist to learn why the moth never
developed and flew. The scientist
said: ''You killed it with your i'll
advised kindness"
Then he told him that it is the
struggle to get out of its cocoon
that develops the wings of the
butterfly. "No struggle, no wings"
is natures way for butterflies.
That is also the law for us NOR
tails, who constantly try to make it
''easier" for ourselves and our chill
dren.
AS child, I used to wonder about
why had to work. thought work
was a curse. Then, when I read the
Genesis account for myself, I saw
that God put him (Adam) into the
garden to dress it and keep it."
Adam was created to work in the
garden. Probably, if he had worked
a little harder he would not have
gotten into trouble. Someone has
said: Satin may tempt busy man,
but a lazy man tempts the devil"
DR.. Scudder, warden of the Chico
Institution for Men, out in Cali
fornia, prison without walls, guns
or clubs, said this ''Some 80 pei
cent of the young men sent to prison
had never been taught trade" The
ancient Jews had this idea: 'Ht
who teaches not his son a trade
teaches him to steal" And, so
thousands of our youth, unframed
in any skills that society will pay
wages for, take to stealing and Grim,
for a livelihood.
We are taught in school the stor,
of Captain John, Smiths order TO
the colonists: 'He who does no
work shall not eat" We forge
that the first Disciples had the sam
rule. eff any would not work
neither shall he eat" III Thessalon
ians 3:1O).
Read the Gospels, and you will Sc
that Jesus was a carpenter. H
knew that blisters turn to callouse
in the hand. When He felt that Hi
mission was to preach the accep
tible year of the Lord" He brougt
to the task of saving men the sam
spirit of labor that He used in shar
ing an ox-yoke, of making othe
articles of wood.
When His enemies thought thu
they would snuff out His life, w
hear Him saying: 81 have finishe

uoydC. Douglas Gifts Bring
Fight Over Taxes on Estate

The daughters of Lloyd C.
Douglas today appealed to the
United States Tax Court to try to
escape paying estate taxes on
gifts which the novelist made
during the last three years of his
life.
Disputed gifts were $4,000 to
each of the daughters. Betty
Douglas Wilson of Las Vegas,
New, and Virginia Douglas Daw-
son, of Westmount, Quebec,
Canada. and $4,000 to Mr..
Douglas nurse, Mrs. Bertha
Kraft of Los Angeles.
The Internal Revenue Service
held that all the gifts were made
in contemplation of death and
should be added to Mr.. Douglas
estate, which was valued at
$3.50, 200 when he died February
13, 1851. The extra tax would
be $11,171.
The daughters, in appealing
the dispute to the Tax Court.

| 1888 Bank Closing
Echoes in Tax Court
Decision on Income

The United States Tax Court
ruled today that Wade H. Cooper
one time president of the defunct
United States Savings Bank
owes 1885 more income taxes
for 1916.
The dispute grew indirectly out
of the Treasury's closing the
United States Savings Bank in
1888 shortly after Franklin D
Roosevelt was inaugurated as
President. Mr.. Cooper went to
court to stop the closing, but
lost.
In the closing, Mr.. Cooper
lost all $4,000 he had invested
in the bank. but turned a smaller
profit later by buying up some
certificates emitting depositors
to certain interest payments.
Mr.. Cooper bought them on
the basis of an eventual pay
ment of interest at 3 per cent,
but the actual payment turned
out to be 6 per cent under a
decision of the Supreme Court,
Mr.. Cooper made the difference
in profit, claiming it was taxable
as a capital gain.
The Tax Court held, however,
that the profit was ordinary in
come taxable at full rates. The
Tax Court also denied an effort
by Mr.. Cooper to claim carry
forward deductions on the basis
of his losses on his stock in the
bank.
The court ruled:
"The record contains consid-
cradle evidence to show that the
bank at the time it was placed
in receivership was not in fact
insolvent and that its subsequent
insolvency was the result of gross
mismanagement of the proceed
ings in receiverShip.
"These facts, however. do not
bear on the question which we
have here, which is simply the
fact of worthlessness of the stock
and when such worthlessness
was ascertainable and not the
cause of the worthlessnesS."
Mr.. Cooper now lives at the
University Club. 1885 Sixteenth
street NV.

of gifts to Mrs. Kraft during the
five years she cared for him.
The final gift-for $1,000 on
November IA, 1949-was accom-
panied by this note: Dearest
Bertha-Here is token of my
deep gratitude to you for your
tirelesS devotion as my nurse
and your sweet companionship as
my friend during these past five
years. Blessings on you for
everything. Lovingly. L. c. D."
The daughters said the con-
tents of this note showed Mr..
Douglas was not contemplating
death.
Mr.. Douglas works include
The Robe, The Big Fisherman,
White Banners and Magnificent

stardom In her own right in
1897.
In the original production, and
a series Of REVEALS demanded
by Unsuitable audiences, Miss
Adams played Peter Pan 1851
times.
Had Never Married.
Miss Adams never married. At
the turn Of the century, men fol-
lowed her around the country
because they felt they could not
live without her. She was idol
lied throughout the country, but
her name was never Solidly
linked with any man.
Though close friends of both
denied it, it was often rumored
that she and Charles Frohman,
famous producer. were betrothed.
When he died in the sinking of
the Lusitania in 1915. she was
playing Quality Street" in
Kansas City. She continued the
tour. but a few days later in
Knoxville suffered a nervous
breakdown. Except for a few APP
pearances - including peter
Pan"-she acted no more until
a comeback was attempted il
1882.
The comeback was in 1.-The
Merchant Of Venice" with Otis
Skinner, when she was SO.
Never Resumed Stage.
Producers tempted her with
scripts and Philip Barry wrote
Joyous Season" especially for
her in 1884. but Miss Adams
withdrew at the last moment,
and Lillian Gish created the role.
Miss Adams never returned to
the stage.
She had a fetish for avoiding
personal publicity, and boosted
that she had never given an
interview.
In the years following her
final retirement, Miss Adams,
practically speaking, hid from
the public. In 1921 she had given
400 of the 500 acres of her Long
Island estate to the Catholic
Sisters Of the Cenacle order. She
lived in a white house in their
midst. although not a Catholic.
With the exception of the
friendly nuns, several trusted
women servants. and her old
man she was secluded.
Private services for Miss Adams
will be conducted at 2:30 pm.
Monday. Burial will be in the
cemetery on her former estate at

And though the years be many or few.
They are filled with remembrance Of
YOU.
IT'S such . consolation to know,
As the years 80 BY,
The memory Of the one We loved
Can never. never die.
TIE FAMILY.
