By MARY MARSHALL
v " The Winter display of sports
dresses for Florida is of little int-
/srest to the average person in the
noi\h who cannot afford to take a
vacation at Pam Bleach, except as
the fashions shown by the smart
dressmakers in February are
4 those which will prevail every-
™ where for next summer’s wear.
Among- those now being shown,
dresses with short sleeves arfc
srwrter than those with no
sleeves at all; a,.1 possibly before
W summer h: m earnest, the
sleevless dress save for evening
wear will seen’j actually pas-see.
* ,To be sure among the smart new
daytime dresses, you may see
: op many made without seeves,l but
these are always acompanied by
•f) bolero jacket or short cape so
that at least the upper part of
v the arms is covered.
In taking inventory of your last
summer’s wardrobe you may find
a number of sports type dresses
of the sleevless sort. An attempt
to supply these dresses with sleev
es wiouldprovefutile since you
could hardly hope to match the
material, but if the skirts are
long enough to supply the needed
three - or four inches, below the
knees you may bring them up to
date by means of a little separate
jacket of silk or linen.
To be sure there is the raised
waistline to be considered and
last season’s sports dresses al-
most all retained the low waist-
line may be indicated. Be sure
that you do not draw this belt too
closely—for we are still a long-
way from the tight belts that pre-
vailed when waistlines were nor-
mal before.
.on, flattered and squeezed until I
do not know where I am or why I
am.
“These laws compel me to pay a
merchant’s tax, capital stock tax,
inheritance tax, excess tax, income
tax, real estate tax, property tax,
auto tax, gas tax, water tax, light
tax, cigar tax, street tax, school
tax, levy tax, sewerage tax, dog
tax and] poll tax.
“in addition to those taxes I am
requested and required: to contrib-
ute to every society and organiza-
tion of which the inventive mind
jof man or woman can conceive.
“My business is so govermentaly
controlled that I do not know who
owns it. I am susipiec.ted, expected
inspected, disrespected, examined,
reexamined, ci*oss-examined, in-
formed required, commanded;, and
compelled until all I know is that
I am supposed td provide an inex-
haustable supply of money for
every known need desire or hope
of the human race, and; because I
refuse to donate to all and go out
and beg, borrow, and steal money
to give away I am cussed, discuss-
ed, boycotted, talked to, talked
about, lied to, lied about, held down
and robbed: until I am clinging to
life is to see what is coming next
April 1. 1930.”

A NATION’S BUILDER
Not gold, but only men can make
A people great and strong-—
Mien who, for truth and honor’s
sake,
S'and fast and suffer long.
Birave men, who work while others
sleep,
Who dare while others fly—
,They build a nation’s pillars deep
And lift them to the sky.
—Ralph Waldo Emerson
Eielson’s Body Found in Snow
* The Siberian Arctic’s most tra-
^ f gic epic ended Thursday night
when tireless advices were receiv
ed rare that the body of Carl Ben
* Tielson , world-noted aviator, had
• been found.
A terse radiogram from the fur
laden motorship, Nannie, icebound
- at North Cape, Siberia, said the
* body of the famous flyer Was lo-
cated Tuesday near his wrecked!
plane on the frozen tundra.
“Ben’s body found 18th,” said
the message signed by Joe Cros-
son, anotiner well-known flyer1,
who led the search. “Unable to
get information sooner. Wlas kill-
•e.f instantly. Body will be brought
*-1o North Cape 'tomorrow and tak-
en to Fairbanks as soon as possi-
ble.”
Time two aviators soared away
from Teller, Alasnai, Nov. 9, y929,
to bring food and supplies to suf-
fering members of the Nanuk’s
crew. Instead, they ran into a
blizzard, smashed to the ground
and both were killed.
A scientist dec!ares that1 many
animals laugh. They could hardly
help it if they observed people
closely. \
“RING OUT, WILD BELLS.”
By Alfred Tennyson
Ring out, wild1 bells, to the wild
sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty
light;
The year is dying in the night;
Ring, out, wild bells, and1 let him
die.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the
snow1;
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the
true.
Ring; out the grief that saps the
mind,
For those that here we see no
more;
I Ring out the feud of rich andi
I poor,
’ Ring in redress to all mankind,
i Ring out a slowly dying- cause,
And ancient forms of party
strife;
i Ring in the nobler modes: of life
With sweeter manner®, purer
■ laws.
Ring: out the want, the cares, the
i sin,
T'he faithless coldness of the
1 times; ■
I Ring opt, ring, out my mourn-
ful rhymes,
! But ring- the fuller minstrel in.
Ring out false pride in place and
blood,
The civic slander and the spite;
Ring in the love of truth and
right,
Ring in the common love of good.
Ring out old shapes of foul dis-
ease;
\Ring out the narrowing lust of
gold;
Ring out the thousand wars of
old,
Ring in the thousand years of
peace.
Ring in the valiant man and free,
The larger heart, the kindlier
hand;
Ring out the darkness of the
land,
Ring in the Christ that is to be.

A letter revaling in verbosity
some lof the best efforts of James
Lan±z' literate secretary to Mayor
Tate, was received by the City
Commission Wednesday, giving the
reasons of one taxpayer why he is
not sending in his city tax pay-
ment this year.
The letter was referred to Fin-
ance Commissioner John C. Har-
ris. It follows,:
“May I not be privileged- to in-
form ycu that the present shatter-
ed condition of my bank account
make? in impossible for me to
comply v/ith the request of your
Tax Collector for a remittance
covering his tax statement?
“My present financial cor’d'
is due to the effects of Federal
laws, State laws, county laws,
doctor-in-laws, by-laws, corpora-
tion laws, brother-in-laws and out-
laws that have been foisted upon
an us suspecting public. Through
these various laws I have been

Two hundred Kaufman County
farmers landowners and bankers
ISaturday at a meeting at the
court house at Kaufman resolved
to cut the eoaton acreage at least
! 15 pier cent and raise all necessary
'feed and food during 1930. The big
! meeting was addressed by Victor
H. Schoffelmayer, agricultural edi-
tor of The Dallas News, who pre-
sented! statistics as to the critical
cotton outlook and increasing farm
tenancy. Former Congressman
James Young called the meeting
to order and introduced the speak-
er of the evening, who was follow-
ed by County Agent 0. A. Mb neb,
who stressed the importance of
caring for animals on the farm and
providing feed and grain grown at
home.
Kaufman County bankers show-
ed that nearly $1,000,000 worth of
feed was shipped into the county
last from other States, all of which
should have been raised at home.
In the audience were the largest
landowners in the county, all of
whom agreed to plant less cotton
and better staple and increase the
acreage of grain and feed.
The Kaufman Chamber of Com-
merce under guidance of R. E. Bu-
chanan, secretary, is conducting a
series of county-wide meetings in
which the cotton situation is dis-
cussed in all its phases.
Tips to Motorists
iA. speed that is safe for a car
with four-wheel brakes in adjust-
ment is suicidal for a car with two
wheel brakes out of adjustment.
These are-the extremes. The thing
toi do is to regulate your speed by
the condition of your car—and
keep the car in as good condition
as possible.
Fish live in water, tires live on
air. Every time you eat fish think
about your tires. The regular hab-
it of checking their pressure every
Friday will insure proper inflation
for the week-end trip.
If you lose the cap of your gas
tank, don’t plug up the hole with
rag or cork. This may prevent air
from entering the tank, which is
bad, and lint or particles of cork
are almost certain to fall into the
tank and clog the fuel line, which
is worse. Get a new cap.
It will make it easier to change
tires if you paint the inside of the
rims with one of the specially p"e-
pared paints, or else stove black-
ing or shellac. Don’t use house
paint, though, as it contains oil,
which, as everybody knows, -is
harmful to rubber.
Amotorist needs, a pump so sel-
dom these days that he often neg-
lects to make sure that one which
came with the car is in working
condition. Or he uses it in the
home garage and leaves it stand-
ing in a corner when he goes out.
But when a pump is needed, it’s a
necessity. Biefore starting on a
trip, be sure that yours is under
the seat and ready to do its stuff
i’f required.
This is the time of the year
when you may be stuck in wet
sand: or mud:. You can. often pull
out by deflating the rear tires.
But be sure to pump them up
again to the right pressure as
soon as you are on the road—and
you can’t tell when they’re right
unless you have a gauge, «
Adjustable seats won’t work
properly, nor will seat cushions
settle in place, if rags, tool® or the
old trousers you use when chang-
ing a tire, stick up from the com-
partment under the seat. Pack
things neatly and don’t carry more
than the compartment will hold!.
People who load! the running
boa*rd with heavy camping equip-
ment when going oh a. trip
shouldn't be surprised if the brack-
ets that support the board break
before they get back home again.
