The man was in hard luck last Christmas. as_the story revenled by museum officials tods 1ts salary was small and bills were coming in much faster than he could meet them. So_he adopted the most obvious ex- pedient and got an extra fob.

By the Associated Pross, APIA, British Samoa, March 1.— Four hundred members of the Mau (League of Samoa) have been sen- tenced to six months' imprisonment for attempting to boycott local European stores to embarrass the government. The Mau has asked a new adminis- tration. but the proposal is regarded as being “too absurd” for serious con- sideration. The 400 members of the Mau were arrested by government forces from two cruisers sent from New Zealand to quell the unrest arising from deportation of three Mau members who were convicted of attempting to subvent' the govern- ment.

S. CLAIMS GAINS Museum Employe Works at Post Office nly to Lose Earn- ings for Violating Rule. I'" work in the post office and con- tinued until January 1. For these two +weeks he drew two pay checks from the Government, Then he thought he saw prospects of obtaining a_permanent appointment in the post office if he could continue on the job. He explained his predica- ment to museum officials and was granted 30 da; extra leave without pay, all of which time he worked in the post office and recelved pay for his work. By this means he was able to pay most of his deb! But when the 30 da leave without pay had expired he was no nearer to a permanent appointment in the post office and returned to the museum. This week the museum was notified bv the office of the controller general that the man had violated a rigid rule of the Government service by holding two Federal positions the combined salaries of which amounted to more than $2,000 annually. That is, if the man had worked steadily at both jobs for a year he would have received more than $2,000. Must Return Money. The controller had ruled that the employe must pay back all the money received during his temporary appoint- ment at the Post Office Department. amounting to $209.55. He was entitled to nothing, of course, for the 30 days’ leave without pay granted by the museum. Thus nearly two months of hard work for Uncle Sam not only ! brought him nothing. but resulted in putting him further in debt and his ambition to pay his debts by honest labor simply resulted in piling them up all the more. Muscum officials today admitted the facts of the case. but were reluctant to discuss them since they are making an effort to adjust the situation so that the man can_pay back this curions debt to the Government incurred by paying for it a little at a time instead of meeting it by getting no salary until the amount fs made up | NEW TREATMENT FOR PILES " WORKS WONDERS!
