THURSDAY. APRIL 8. 1920 Cloth is six times as high as it used to That is why we believe that the farmer is entitled to more than 10 for his cotton. Dr. f'ayne, in his quiet and unassuming way, is taking hold of the work a-. Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce in a very satisfactory way He is doing much to bring the fair to a successful issue, and it will not be his fault is the fair does not succeed. While we arc discussing the telephone situation it should not be forgotter^hat a great deal of the lack of prompt service is the result of people "visiting" over the phone. A half hours conversation where there is really not a bit of business involved, frequently produces very poor service, for half a dozen people may try 1 to get your number in the interview, only to be met with the statement: "The line is busy." In an old copy of the Union Times, I published in 1S89, H. M. Sparks, then ft the leading dry goods merchant of ft Union, had an advertisement of his I millinery opening for that year. Among other startling things the folI lowing appeared: "Sailor Hats, all colors, 10c, Trimmed hats, all prices, H even ar high as $5.00." Some boon, that day of cheap millinery! H "Backward, turn backward, O your flight; e r c h a n We' received an article signed; B "Kicker" esterciay, that we will gladly publish if the writer will sign his own F name to it. No name was signed, and we are utterly in the dark as to the author. In cases of protest in matters of concern to the public we require the signature of the party writing the [ article. When there is no such protest we are willing to have some ficticious name signed to the published article, but even in that case, we require the name for our own protection. We propose conducting a liberal newsr paper, and w;e are willing to give space to practically all comers. But it is ?.or habit to come out into the opei . .icn we siriKe at the Uimgs we r do not likt . and we believe every ether man should be willing to do likewise. "Open end above board" is the policy of the Times. ' A JUST COMPLAINT One hca??g^any words of dissatisfaction over the income tax, bu~ Unpopular disapproval finds expression in criticism of the inequalities ar.d hardships of the system rather than in complaints about the amounts exacted by the government. I The Record has previously commented upon the smallness of I he amount which can be claimed under the presi nt. law for the support of a dependent child. Two hundred dollars is wholly inadequate. But even this allowance stops just at the time when the expences incident to educating g children are at their maximum. If !* there is any good reason for allowing S$200 a year exemption for sons and dnughtfcrs'up to eighteen years of age, ( all tht more reason why this should bo I continued bevonH that, aw ! A It in just at this age that most boys ' and girls, having finished high school, | m begin their college courses, and tho { leverage man does not find it easy co < Hprovfde (he additional money required. 1 Yet, just when the family budget * Hmuftt be in or eased just then, the law j H adee, the amount whioh up to this s ^He has been exempt becomes tax- r have near heard any reason, ? or J?d, advanced for this pro- j ' W the tax law. What Congress ? lad in mind in so ordering it is fax Prom clear. Since an educated mar >r woman is more productive than h? or she would ordinarily be if uneducated, from an economic standpoint and consequently worth more to th< State, it would seem to follow quit< naturally that the government woul< be somewhat interested in the mat ter of better educated boys and girls at least to the extent of the tax o: $200 while these bous and girls are de pendents getting their education. T the contrary the government nctuall adds to the burdens of parents wh must at best struggle to send thei children to college, lifting the exemp tion just at the wrong time. There is no longer any excuse fo these inequalities, but it is indubitabt a fact that the bulk of the criticism c the income tax law is over just siit things as this. The people have! right to complain at these, and shopl complain, for con'grtss shows lttl concern and ought, therefore, be ion polled by the force of public oianio to straighten out the kinks.?(g>lun I bia Record. f Our cnt ?j|ys hf is seriously^ eol sidering inaugurating a ba/efo< jI < Hlicv f Kialto Theatre ++-; ^-W-++-?-l--^+++*l*++-}- V-4 -^r l/sr Soothing, Heating, Antiseptic Kaep a Jar handy.

"FLU" SUFFERERS USE ASPITONI The New Perfected Tablet Aspiton is Devoid of Heart Depressing Effect. Should Be Used to Reduce Fever and Relieve Aching in Cases of Influenzu, Colds.
