It ; has proved much comment for and against. We, admit that wo are heart­ ily in favor of such a tax because it has been tried nut in Canada with marked success. In this country it is largely a political issue, opposed by ‘ weak-kneed congressmen ‘that have not the courage to take ft stand for a_proposition they know will work to tlie. benefit of tho whole country. With them it 'is votes first; If. the Republi­ can congress was for it the Democrats would oppose it and_ thus make an is­ sue of it. The other day we read an article in Opposition to this plan from H. Q. McKenzie, taxation expert for the American Farm Bureau -Federation, Mr. McKenzie takes* the view that because 90,000,000 people only have an average income of $330 and that the aggregate per capita tax-of $70, including state and federal taxes, for the average family is $350, or some­ what more than the average income. Mr, McKenzie thinks the small per pent of the country’s population with the taxable incomes would live at the expense of- the majority with the les­ ser income. He thinks the small wage earner would pay out of proportion to that of tho rich man. We have had a fair triel of our system of indirect taxation. The ex^ cess profits and the income tax; are but samples of it. These .90 million people Mr. McKenzie, refers to have suffered greatly in having to pay a high price for clothing, food, shoes, and almost everything else. Even though their wages were increased they were no better off. If these same 90 millions are the buying power of the country for the products of the farm and the factory they cannot be benefited by either the income or the excess profits tax. If the land owners of this country want to stay the day for single or land tax some other system must be $iven out and tried than what we have had. Governments require so much money and if it -cannot be raised, one way it must be the other. If pH the people are not willing to .pay this war debt and the bonus to the soldiers it cannot he. collected from one class, alone. Since the war men of great fore­ sight have discovered that a critical situation is confronting this country. ■They have planned through various organizations that the people must be, educated as the responsibilities of the electorate towards the govern­ ment. Much of our municipal, cofinty and state debts were authorized - by a class of non taxpayers. Indirect tax­ ation made this possible. If the people had a direct federal tax they would be mere interested, in the government. Here is where the sales tax would Play an important part in this cam­ paign, It would do for the States what it has done for Canada, and we doubt if Canada has a higher average wage per family than we have. It could not be with the United States the richest country ip the world. It has been argued that by a sales tax the soldiers would only be help- mg pay their own bonus. To our idea their is.no way for any citizen to be a part of this government* draw any financial benefits and yet not have to pay directly or indirectly for it. - Suppose the excess profits is re­ stored as some have suggested. The man that handles the wool adds the tax. The manufacturer of the wool mto clothing again adds his tax. The company that makes up the doth in­ clothing adds his tax. The jobber adds ms tax, The retailer adds tog fax And Ml‘* Consumer pays a sum total of all these taxes with cost, o f goods and profits. Just so with everything we wear or eat or -whether' we buv machinery for the farm or factory. With the sales tax you-have but one tax and it Is collected but once. If the sales tax is Disced in a fair manner before the people we believe it would become a part of our laws. Demogogues are using it to freight- on the people to gain favor to retain votes and remain in office. The con­ gressman that straddles the iasue should be defeated. We favor blit one tax and pay it direct anil not try to make ourselves believe wo arc not paying a tax in buying an article when m reality as a consumer were Paying equal to all that everyman has paid, President Harding is to be com­ mended for his stand. He lias shown moral courage to stand by what he thinks is right for all the people ir­ respective of the consequences. The opponent of the sales tax must even grant that the President is not play mg possum on tho. issue. Young man, there h one thing you cannot do. You cannot make a suc­ cess in life unless you work. Older men than you have tried it and have failed. You cannot loaf around the street corners, smoke cigarettes, tell smutty stories and sponge someone else, without making a failure in life. You must learn a traae or get into some honest business. If you don’t yon will become a chronic loafer and there is no place in the successful world for loafers, The choice fruit is at the top o f the tree and you must climb if you get it, or some smarter man will pluck it from you. Do some­ thing! No matter-how small or how low the wages, it will be a starter. Help yourself and others will help you. There is no royql road to suc­ cess. Will, grit, energy and endurance are the qualities that lead to it. tniHiiiHiinnriiiinHiiiHiiiinniiinnniim I Philip Points - § § tho Way .

It was a great shock to the Vau Nor- dents,, when Henry Bowes, Mrs. Van Xoriien's father, announced by letter that he hud sold his farm and was coining to live with- them to their house on Fifth avenue, “Pshaw, Molly, we can stow the old gentleman away somewhere," said John Van Norden, "I guess he’s pretty lonely up there In Cohoes,1’ he added, "I shouldn’t like to have to live all by myself at eighty." “But he’ll teach Philip such dread­ ful manners,,r protested Molly. - “Well, what are we going to do, dear?’’ asked her husband? *T suppose we’ll have to take him," said Molly, “But I shall make it per­ fectly clear to him, too moment he ar­ rives, that he Is not going to. display himself- before our friends and make M ridiculous, after all the trouble we’ve taken to get into the. right set.’’ This was duly explained to Henry Bowes—‘‘Hunk’1 Bmves among . his cronies at the local store. The old man put his not too clean hand on his daughter’s shoulder and looked kindly at her. "My dear," he said, "I ain’t going to disgrace you, dotot fear tt. It's you I want—you and John and- Philip. I'm going to make myself scarce when there’s swell company around.’1' He had Included Philip In his sum­ mary, but Molly Van. Norden was de­ termined that he should have no op­ portunity of corrupting the boy’s man­ ners, Nevertheless; with that curious attachment which frequently exit»s between those of the extreme ages of life, Philip artd the old man sought each other’s* company Continually, Philip learned to whittle whistles out of ’wigs, to blow out the leaved of a certain plant into “frogs,” and »ur- reptitlOusly acquired candy would fall out of the boy’s pockets when he was undressed at night. And the more Molly tried to keep him ttway the more he sought hts grandfather’s cotn- ' 'ny. v ■’■■'■■■■■■■. After alx months or so Molly came to a determination. “John,” she said, “Philip I* learning the most disgusting table manners from father. He makes a noise wlth.j his soup and bites hts bread Instead of -brea‘ tog it and—well,. John.^father Is not going to sit at table with us any more.” So thenceforward grandfather ate bis meats in tho. next room In*solitude. The old man, foaming about the house, gradually became a disintegrat­ ing factor to tbe family. "John," Molly announced one day, “I have decided to send* father to an In­ stitution.” “My dearl" said her husband In re­ monstrance, “Oh, I knew you would offer objec­ tions, John.^But I don’t mean the ooorhouse. I mean a home where ln- the boy knew v.bat preparations wore afoot. Henry Bowes remained a* i much of a nuisance as before. It wa-- ' not till the day before his departure ] that the child learned from the #erv- ants that “grandfather was going away,” . At that Instant the first inkling of life’s tragedy entered the little brain He crept away, into the walled garden at the back of the house. Soon he was busy again," His mother and father found film there later. He had con­ structed a *ort of picket fence from some stakes left In the tool shed by the gardener, Inside this was a peek­ ing cnee, “Wlmt’s this, old chop?” aeked'John. “That's a table,” answered the boy, “Table? What do you want a table for?" inquired bis mother, “That'# for father, when lie's- old* so that he.won’t let roe see the way he eats,” said, Philip. “An’ this is a cage like the one grandpa’s to have” be continued, pointing to the row of sticks. "That’S bo ’ s be won’t make a darned nuisance of himself when I has comp’y,” Molly Van Norden looked at her husband speechlessly, Then she turned away and ran Into the house. John found her on the lounge, a few mlnqtes Inter, sobbing hysterically, \“John, did you understand?” she moaned. "What does It mean?” ei guess it means.your father’s go­ ing to take his place in the family from today,” answered John Van Nor­ den, kissing her. “Don't yon think so, my dear?” ' Molly, nodded.

An Australian father haa just com­ pleted the construction of a motor car, which is wlfitt they call an automobile ’in Australia, for his son. Citizens of Sydney-found much to laugh at and a mod deal to praisf when the little-son appeared in the smallest practical mo­ tor eilr In the world. The motor car, -which was hnilt In two years, Is a complete model In miniature of a big c . ti . It has a tme-horsepmver air­ cooled engine, with forward and re­ verse gears, electric bead and fall fights, etc. The little driver has mas­ tered hts costly toy and ls able to drive proudly along In places where traffic 1» scarce. The story of the first drive does not.mention what name has been conferred on this Australian product. and it’s up to me to steer my ship, and not be late at the end o f the trip. I5ut there's come, vfho seem to thud; that I should let the're'd of tun wcr.a Now, it ain’t oecured to my restless mind, that I "would like to be left behind, ah’ let some feller with slower pace, go on a-past me, fttv* win the race! And I wisbt somebody would tell me why I should let the rest of tho world go by. In fact, I never was much of a hand to trail in last, ftt the jedge* stand. I’d duthcr arrive like a lightnin' flash, and watch the slow ones end the dash. There ain’t no glory, none—says, I, in lettin’ the rest o f the world go by! To Mri W. L.
