Tho question involves much mure thun merely deciding whether or not you wunt to puy a tux on nurchuues. It that wero tho whole story tho answer would be simple enough. Of courso no one wants to puy any more taxes. The purpose of the tax Is defi nitely for tho purpose of providing money with which to puy old uge pensions, aid for the blind, and uld for dependent children. , Since 1133 Oregon has hud an old age pension pluu by which peo ple over tho ago of 70 could bo paid a monthly amount not to ex ceed $30.- In actual practice duo mostly to the fact that tho six per cunt limitation would not permit counties to levy more, payments havo avoraged u round $tu per month. Tho nvorugo payment to Douglas county aged has been al most exactly $10 per month. Ily way of gotUiut n local ap proach to this question, the News Jtcvluw has obtained the following Information which was prepared by the DoubIim County l'lanntng Com mission: t Total on pension roll us of iJeeonibor 15 U3 Average uge 76 Average monthly pension. .f 10.00 Amount paid In Decem ber I'JlIu 3,705.00 Property transferred or pledged to rtdnihunto the Old Age Pension Commhmiou: Assessed value IMS In roll 8D.7 10.01) Mortgage- indebtedness.. 8, loo.nu Tho bint Items above refer to the fact thut each recipient of the old ago pension must iiaslgu what properly ho owns lo the Old Ako Pension cunitiilKi'.lon.

"No, no, please don't go," begged Kent. "I'll come right back and well finish the dance. Please?1 Shurlcue hud gone. Julie put her bund In Kent's und smiled up at him with a new promise lu her eyes. "If you really wish it yes," she wnispereu. Sharlene clutched Leigh in pass ing and confided to htm with danc ing eyes: "Kent's flirting with his future star and 'has her gagu. inn i tie clever? "Oh, brother's got a way with the women," ligh acknowledged "Ilef ore he's through she'll he beg glng him on her knees to let her have a contract with this com pany!" They both laughed. Hut when Shurleue had gone on, Leigh look ed ufter her with a worried little pucker on his brow. "You don't think it's too ex treme; dear?" Mrs. Stundrlng ask ed, looking humorously down at the gored skirt and the little jacket, and the sleeves faintly sug gesting legs o' mutton. She was selecting a travelling frock at one of the shops In the hotel, while bhurlene sat by approving. Extreme! When you woro just such things before I wus born?" "1 know. Hot they do seem funny after we've enjoyed the freedom of short skirts and no waistline for so long." Then to the saleswoman: I'll take it." "Thank you, Mrs. Rtandrlug. I'll send it out immediately." He sure and do so. I m leaving tomorrow night. ' "Without fail, Mrs. Standrlng. "Oh, dear!" sighed Sharleno us die slipped her arm in her moth er's and turned to the door. "I do so hate to have you go back." So do I, but sister wants mo and you know my fear of becom ing the traditional mothei-in-law " "Silly !" exclaimed Sharlene, They were on their way up toward the lobby. "Kent loves you "I don't know whether he does or nut. He's been too busy to find out. 1 In t he has never seemed like my own boy as Stuart She stopped abruptly, flushing. Shutiene luuglied. "Don t be old- fashioned, ileal'.

"I'll pick you out u star why, there's Julie!" "Where?" "W'ltli tho huge pointed fox around her shoulders " "I see her. . , . Shurleue she's with" "Yes," Shurleue nodded and smiled. "She's with my husband." "H'm !" Mrs. St untiring watched the slowly gyrating forms for u moment. "Kent Is paying her u lot of at tention, mother, for business rea sons. You know he wants to sign her up for his pictures us soon us she's through with her present con tract ." Mrs. Stundrlng .mndo no com ment but she did observe how en grossed Kent van with Julie und how close he held her. Shutiene was ordering their tea. The dance tame to an end and the diminutive girl under (he spectacular fur scarf disappeared from the floor with her escort. "You're really not Jealous are you. Shaiiene?" Mrs. Siandrinu spoke utter tho waiter hat I left them ami she bail spent some mo ments In contemplation of her daughter's serene face. "Jealous? Why, no, dear. You mean of Kent?" ''Yes, pome women would be." "Put that's impossible. If two people love each other tho way : Kent and I do." The tea came and they sipped it. Tho musk began again. Mrs. Standrlng moved closer to her daughter and spoke softly: "l in goini; to break over and be disiigreeahlo mid give j mi some advice, dear. IPs a funny place to do It in but I may not Ijiive an other opportunity. lis just this: 1 think you tilve too much." "What? Why, v luit do you mean, mother?'' "I mean devotion.' Sharleno thought for a moment, Then a lovely smile lit her race. "I can never gi him tmouith of de votionand faith to make up for" "Nonsense!" declared Mrs. St untiring sharply. Then more gently: "I mean, you can curry it ttio far. To put it bluntly, a man likes to be kept guessing." "Mother's then isn't a question of that with Kent-" "Ho likes particularly to play games, doesn't he?" "Marriage iMi't a s.tmeV . Mrs. Staudrmg shrugged. "To a person of his temperament love Is a game!" "i see. , . . You think Julie ?' "1 don't think anything!

"Helieve me, It isn't!" Rharlene said with entire conviction. "Ap pearances nave led you to false de ductions. His being here with Julie It's absurd!" She laughed com fortably and pulled her coat around her. "Will you go with me to the gallery here in the hotel, to see aiuart s picture?" "1 think I'll run along to Mrs. Jordan's Instead. You see, 1 I saw it yesterday, dear." "You did? Why didn't you tell me?" "I don't know. Old-fashioned embarrassment about former hus bands, 1 expect. "You're so quaint about It. mother. Why, 1 told Kent I was coming to see the picture and he agreed to meet me here at five. It's nearly that now. We'd better be going. I'll send you on with Mor ton because Kent will have his car." "Do you ever run into Stuart?" Mrs. Stanilring asked as they wait ed in the lobby ufter Sharlene had sent for the car. "I haven't yet but I know I may see him any day. I don't im agine either of us will be the leust bit fussed. J lie incident is closed you see.

The big, quiet room was deserted as she stepped in. She recognized instantly the large canvas on the opposite wall. she know Stuart's work so well. It gave her u totally unexpected thrill. She went Blowly toward 11 and stood transfixed before it. Tho central figure claimed her eye, upthrust out of darkness Into the da.zliug Indian sunlight. A fig uro of majesty, tremendous power, arrested in the midst of dynamic action. Tho whole picture waj in action. ... f.- Shutiene's eyes remained 'fixed In fascination on that great kJtiK- ly face, darkly handsome, austere, but with the tragedies of all his subjects curried in his sorrowful eyes. She followed the gaze of tnoso eyes out to the vast back ground of the canvas. It was, the marble dam ut HaJ Samaud in pro cess of building. Hordes of black. almost nuked men toiled with blocks of white marble. In the shadow of the completed portion, women led hungry children. Al most It seemed as if the great king smiled on these, his little ones, Sharlene thought, as her eyes travelled back to his face. 1 hen she saw his suck-thrust, im perious right hand und followed its uctfou to the dim, cool, silken tent from which ho hud emerged. v woman veiled, jewelled, gor geously beautiful, crouched on the ugs beneath his hand.

GLENDALE LOSES TO GRANTS PASS FIVE A 16 to 16 tie, with a scoreless three-minute overtime period, in basketball and a volleyball victory for Days Creek were the results of Days Creek's games with their Glendale U league visitors Friday evening. Fast playing featured by both tight defense and strong offense made the basketbull game exceed ingly interesting to spectators. with tne score lb to lb at toe end of the regular time, play wus re sumed for an overtime period, which was scoreless, though sev eral foul shots were taken but went wild.

ADOLPH'S OBSERVATIONS The average fellow is approach ed sp much for contributions to this and that, that it becomes a sort of second nature for him to dribble out his b heckles thought lessly as be goes along. There isn't time to consider the merits of all the things we have to donate to. In some places they have estab lished agencies to whom one gives the amount each year that he feels able and they take the responsi bility of determining the worthy ones who shall receive it. That might be the answer to the prob lem, If politics didn't enter in and sometimes prevent a fair distribu tion. To give under any plan Is a blessed privilege, but to receive Is also thrilling.

American family was forced to gel along on less fresh milk each year. It made people see, as never before, that the old-fashioned method of mar keting food was wasteful, costly. It spelled lad times for dairy farmers. (Only in 1935 has consumption of dairy products begun to climb up again in most areas.) In order lo give their children more milk, butter and eggs, many Western mothers turned to their neighborhood Sufeway grocer. His dairy product sales have been increasing every year! For the Safeway method makes it pos sible lo sell these vital foods at lower prices. Safcway's method eliminates wasteful, extra handling costs. Lower retail prices help the people who trade at Safeway stores lo afford enough milk, butter and eggs lo keep up family health. This Increased consumption increases the farmer's income, too. Because the Safeway family pays the farmer his full market price for every quart your Safe way grocer sells. MAYBE YOU TRADE with a grocer who runs only one store. Per haps you incline, to blame him if your food costs seem high. But it's not his fault. It's the fault of the system under which he sells. There are too many wasteful expenses in between him and the farmer. For just that reason your Safeway grocer belongs to a business family. Joined with food buyers in the farm areas, skilled truckers, warehousemen, 'marketing experts, home economists all helping him keep down dis tribution costs be can help you LOWER the cost of living. ' He can reduce the retail price of food and still pay back to farmers a larger share of your food dollar. Your Safeway grocer is working at that job because it is what the people want done and because the people reward men who do what the public wants. Your Safeway grocer is working in a business family because he can perform a better service that way, and hence earn a better salary. To producers, transporters and processors he pays 80 cents of every iooa dollar you spend with him. This means the farmer gets a larger share of this food dollar than was possible before the Safeway method was developed . . . M. L.
