One Mon Con Work Wonders

We all despair Of the power Of one per-
son or his single vote :. (but) the man
with faith and fortitude and good sense Of
outrage can still do wonders Everything Of
consequence in this world started in the
brain Of one person. Sam Adams determin-
edly drove this colony into rebellion against
the British; Tom Paine's impassioned
screeds licked our fifth-column tories and
held an army together for Washington; Lin
coins grim grit and gumption glued our
Union and so on and so on. Even, in the be-
ginning, Christianity had only one member
"a man called Jesus.-Bert MastersOn.

Here's a simple example
of how il works.

Let's say you put So, $50 into E Bonds back
in the spring of 1913. By this spring they
would have earned $2,402 interest and
their cash-in value would be S.
Until this year, if you cashed your Bonds
to buy H Bonds you would have to pay the
tax on the E Bond interest with your next
return. If you happened to be in the 800
tax bracket, this would amount to $721.
The remaining $5,431 if put into H Bonds,
would pay an average of $205.56 interest
per year for 10 years.
Under the neto rule, you can put off paying
the tax on your E Bond interest until you
redeem your H Bonds. You can put the
entire Sc, 152 to york and earn oUer the 10
years an average of $232.85 interest per
year. This gives you an extra $272.9O oOer
the 1O-year life of your II Bonds.

be needed just now-and, of course, the cash

They walked into the next room

IT find it disturbing - very

shaking his head in disbelief.
And at that, a man in gray
work uniform stepped forward
and turned the apparition to
the wall.
The three men made up q
panel of art experts who made
the final selection Of paintings
yesterday for the 9th biennial
exhibition of contemporary
American painting which opens
at the Corcoran Gallery Of Art
on January 13.
They bypassed Justice Frank
furter and the skeleton and the
nude because these three paint
ings were submitted by artists
who had been invited to exhibit
in the show.
The apparition was one Of
the paintings picked from some
5000 color slides submitted by
artists from every State except
Alaska and Utah who wanted to
enter the open section Of the
show-a separate category.
Actually. the Corcoran staff
had made the judges task easy.
They had eliminated all but
125 Of the 5000 contenders in
the color slide stages.
The 125 were asked to ship
their paintings to the gallery
so the judges could study them.

"A STRICT OBSERVANCE

"A STRICT OBSERVANCE
of Lent" he wrote in 1925,
made possible a pleasure
which is to us unknown, that
of unlenting at breakfast on
Easter Day.
II have seen two of my
grand-uncles, both strong
and level-headed men, half
swoon with Joy when they
saw the first slice cut from
a ham on Easter Day. Now,
degenerate race that we are,
we could never stand such
powerful sensations"
OF all the dishes he men,
tions, his favorite was a
simple one, eggs fondue. He
gives the recipe. It Is:
Break as many eggs as you
need for your guests into a
casserole. Take a piece OF
good Gruyere cheese, one
third the weight of the eggs,
and a piece of butter one
sixth the weight"
This presented a problem.
We have no kitchen scales.
But the cheese, a domestic
Gruyere, came in little l.
ounce wedges. The eggs were
large and estimating them
at 3 ounces made it very
easy-six eggs, the 6 ounces
of cheese and three-fourths
of a stick of butter.
I cut the cheese in thin
slices-it was too soft to
grate-and melted them in
the melted butter in a skillet
over an electric burner set
at "low."
Then I added the eggs,
beaten as If for scrambled
eggs. The master directed
that a wooden spoon be used.
I obeyed but soon had to
grab a spatulua to save my
dish. 1t was browning and
sticking to the bottom.
At the end, in accordance
with the recipe, I added a
quantity Of pepper-no salt;
there was enough in the
cheese and the butter.
Send for your best wine
and let the same be roundly
quaffed, when you will see
marvels."

HIS "REMINISCENCES of
the old regime read like
those of the Archduke
Dmitri-it couldn't last.
The great gourmets in the
last days Of the reign Of Louis
XVI were the chevalierS
and the abbes. To become a
chevalier it was not neces-
sary to have knelt to the
royal accolade. All that
was necessary for a young
man Of good breeding was
to adopt the title. carry his
sword vertically and respond
to challenges.
Many young men consid-
cred it too dangerous a life.
They became abbes. Here
again it was not absolutely
necessary to take orders
from a bishop exercising the
apostolic succession from
Peter. Many merely adopted
the clerical habit and dined
well ever after.
But they tasted as well as
feasted in those days.

Noting that State aid cannot
be expected to meet all rising
expenditures, the committee
said a higher property tax
should be the source of neces-
sary revenue within reasonable
limits. The present tax rate
Of $2.42 per 500 of assessed
valuation is not confscatory,
the report said.
Other Prince Georges revenue
sources recommended are:
Return of "a per cent Of the
State income tax to the county,
which would be about $4,000.
Return of one-third of the
State sales tax collected in the
county. Members advised
against a local sales tax.
In lieu of more State aid, a
Prince Georges income tax of
up to / per cent. This would
amount to more than 50 mil
lion and would be collected by
the State.

real estate transfer tax, now
two-tenths of / per cent and
good for about 100000 an
