Good Tax Advice “Don’t tax earnings,” advises Herbert Hoover. . taxing earnings, he points out, production is penalized. then, should be taxed? Hoover's ly follows: “Tax fetiecifances, unearned incomes and unearned incre- i ” Tt is, according to Hoover, an unsound economic practice tax a man because he works—produces. Can you find any flaw in that? Assuredly you will not diminish production by not it. will you reduce production by taxing unearned ‘And increased production is what gives more to each on, more food, more clothing, more automobiles and r homes. Hoover has the right idea. Women of London's smart set are reported to be ad- to the habit of drinking perfume. What would do if England should go dry? Mate Neither tea nor coffee’ is making much headway as a ttitute for alcoholic drink in the United States. nwhile, the social aspetc of alcoholic drinking is ected to earnest cerebration by those who recognize it if a substitute is found fortunes may be made from it. Now comes news that an enterprising importer again “has discovered mate, a drink long used thruout much of and proposes to introduce it into the States. Mate is brewed like tea from a variety of holly. Its 3 e property is caffein, The taste is bitter. It is served hot. The bitterness is uninviting. The importer has given ught to bitter ale and entertains hope that the very that mate is hard to take might make it a popular beverage in this country.

Not the Christian Church, nor the Hebrew, the Buddhist. Just the Church And before we begin to fall out over this tatement let us define. When we pause to define we usually have nothing left to | argue, By the Church I mean that congregation lof human beings meeting to consider them- selves as Souls, not as Animals, and to con- sider their relations to God and to a future life. The Church. This group has been or- | ganized and has done business longer than any group formed for any. other purpose. | It is older than the Masonic Order, or any club, society or association extant. It is older than any nation, live or dead—older | than China, Egypt or Nineveh. It is older | than any family, royal or otherwise, whether Stuarts, Guelphs, Hohenzollerns, Komanoffs, jor Hapsburgs. It is older than the castles jon the Rhine, the ruins of Athens, or the \) cy wae, | Pyramids and Obelisks. wy | it was here before any of the present va) jsects were formed, and will be here when they have disappeared. It was active before Mrs. Eddy, John Wesley, Luther, the first | Pope, Lao-tse, or Abraham.

The procession of altar fires runs back, and Greece and Babylon and the Flood, past history, to the beginnings of tradition, to Abel’s altar fire just outside the gates of Eden. The Church is the place where we hear the restful words, “forever and ever.” Those words murmur like the Ocean. They hine like the stars. No thought is so ancient and time-tested as the thought of God. Men were thinking of that before they ever thought of gov- ernment or machinery or art. No riddle ever fell from the Sphinx’s lips of Time that has attracted human creatures more than “If a man die shall he live again?” We don’t know much more about it now than the cave men knew. Some times we dismiss it as futile. But it is opened afresh with every grave. The high gods will not leave us alone. And the biggest idea that ever flashed a brain is that we are not as the other animals, we shall live on, our destiny transcends our earthly span. We think we are immortal because our thoughts, mo- tives, and hopes are immortal and over- lap death. The Church is the place, the group, where the oldest and loftiest concerns of human+ kind abide. Within it burns the Undying Fire. Go to Church! “2 Get Used to Yourself BY EDMUND VANCE COOKE Now this is the first of human laws: Get used to yourself! And why? Because You must live with yourself for a long, long spell, Drunken or sober, or sick or well. You are wed to yourself for better or worse, For bane or blessing, for boon or curse, 4 And no decree or desire shall give ~ , You a separate state in which to live. Aye, tho you dissever your bonds of clay And blow yourself from your brain away, You are still a carcass, or still a soul, But you still are yourself in part or whole. - -Sinner or saint (and I'd venture an oath You will find that yourself is a little of both), Get used to yourself, and as sinner or saint, Learn to live with yourself, and without complaint!
