Taxes In 1857

EVENTS abroad in recent days and state
- ments from Administration officials in
dictate that the American people have little
reason to expect a tax cut from the first
session of the 25th Congress.
Every year for the last three Years tax
cuts have been talked before Congress con-
vened. and in each case during these wears,
the financial situation has been so tight at
the time when Congress must act, that no
tax cut has been voted Indications are that
President Eisenhower will ask Congress
for less foreign aid money than last year
but that he will also ask for increased mill
tary spending. This is expected to outweigh
the decrease in foreign aid spending.
While receipts are expected to be up,
they are not expected to be enough to pro-
vide funds for any substantial tax cut. and
though the effort may be made chances
are against the passage of tax reduction
bill in the first session of the new Congress-
clue to the Presidents suggestions
along this line may be obtained on Dec 13-
Ia, when Congressional leaders will meet
with the President at the White House Mr..
Eisenhower, vacationing and working on
his State-of-the- Union message recently at
Augusta, Ca, will have his program pretty

The Great Out Of-Doors
By {. LOUIS DAHL

With the hunting season near
ing the halfway mark. an unof-
ficial appraisal of the situation
might be of interest
Based upon limited first-hand
experience, but upon a good cross
section of reports from other
hunters, game is definitely more
plentiful than a year ago.
Discounting the usual hard luck
stories, which are a natural perog-
alive of all sportsmen, Quail are
more numerous than they have
been in years. And contrary to
the usual stories. they are not all
/ staying in the swampS and thick
/ cts, either.
l am not Turkey hunter. so
can not say whether there is more
hunting for them. or whether the
increase in, Deer hunting is re-
sponsible for so many more of
/ them being seen.
! The growing interest in Rabbit
hunting and the accompanying
activity IN Beagle raising, is fur
/ nlshme many sportsman with
all the shooting one could ask.
AS for the Deer hunting there
seems to be only one complaint.
/ that there are too many does. But
we all recognize that the Doe Law
is what has brought our Deer
herd up TO its present gratifying
status. I some times think that
the Game Commission realizes
that there are some does killed
each year some deliberately and
some accidentally and for this
reason are justified in keeping
the Doe Law in effect
Even an occasional Grouse is
seen in this area. These could be
native birds, since most of the
released 'PheaSantS' are actually
pheasants and not Grouse.
A few Doves are moving into
the State these days. and with
the shooting season re-opening
on December 25th.. they should
furnish some exciting shooting

Other Ways OF Love

But what is the Christian way
Of love? There are more ways than
one TO use the word love. There
are ways of love. so called. which
are not the Christian way. For in
stance, there is something called
love, which consists really of fond
ness for things or people that are
lovable. For e. mple. a young
woman stands at an altar and
promises to take a man for better
for worse, for richer for poorer. in
sickness and in health" But she
does not really hear the vow she
makes, And if the man turns out
to be poorer or worse than she
thought, she looks up a divorce
lawyer. The way of Christian love
does not demand lovableness first;
on the contrary. Christian love can
make an unlovely and unloving
person loVable Some love is all
for ones own benefit; Il love you"
can mean no more than II want
you for my exclusive use Chris
tian love does not insist on its
own way" 1t does not ask. What
can you do for me-" but What
may | do for you?'

And follow those odoring men Of DID,
And with them see the stor that guided them
And hear the gladstone news the angel told
The news that in O barn near Dovid's town
IS born King Of blessed heavenly birth,
A King without court, who wore no crown,
Gods only Son mode flesh to save the earth.
With them see the blessed Child Of Peoce,
And knowing whot His mission is to be,
The doubts that dim my wovering foith viii cease
And dormont hopes revive again in me.

So take the Soviour, Jesus while you may
And place Him in the monger Of your heart

Relax To Sleep

MANY Americans complain that they
w have trouble sleeping at night They re-
sort to all sorts of drugs sleeping pills,
and other remedies. some of which are not
necessary and some of which do not do the
body any good.
Experts have almost unanimously agreed
that difficulty in getting to sleep at night
is rarely due to a physical disorder or all
ment. Insomnia, if you have it, can usually
be prevented if YOU will use your thinking
process bit and if YOU can discipline your
self to refrain from worry at night. putting
off your problems until the morning.
The first task. relaxing is partially de
pendent on disciplng yourself to starting
each day anew, tackling your problems in
the morning and not worrying about them
all night. II you will remember that worry
never accomplishes anything. except to de
stroy your health and your happiness. you
will soon learn to discard worry and to
tackle Your problems each day as they
arise.
Experts say that if YOU would avoid in
somnla YOU should give yourself an oppor-
tunlty to relax and unwind before going to
sleep. They suggest listening to quiet mu-
sic, reading an easy-to-read novel taking a
warm bath leisurely, or pursuing some 9TH

Blessing the Universe

Another way Of love sometimes
mistaken for the Christian way, is
no better than shecr~sloppy senti-
mentality. Sometimes it consists in
a vague feeling that everything is
very nice in very happy world.
A minister once preached on the
text, I'VE that love the Lord, hate
evil After the sermon a lady told
him she didn't like that sermon at
all. She had been brought up to
believe that love was always right
and hate always wrong. Love is al
ways right, yes; but that does not
is evil If we love the good, we
shall not love what destroys good.
S 0 m e t m e this substitute for
Christian love takes the form of a
general feeling of good will toward
the world in general. A Well-knoWn
American wrote shortly before his
death, Il bless the universe" Now
il is certainly better to bless the
universe than to curse it. But bless
ing the universe seems curious
sort of thing to do Are you really
blessing all of it, sir? Cholera and
polio. stars and atoms and ty-
ohoons and germs, criminal and
Judge, saints and sinners. miracles
and murderers? We have to be
careful that we don't love the uni
verse in such a way that whatever
,apnenS seems exactly right
