The evils of secret societies in the public .schools caused (the passage of a law against them in (1909.

The Insull Smash 'The Insull utilities, one of the superpower holding Toups of the country, with properties from New England to the Gulf, north to Canada and through the central west, com-' rprising 'more than a hundred companies, serving 6,500,000, ipeople in over 5,000 communities, is in the hands of receivers thug dramatizing the -plight of investment holding groups dinner the era of deflation. 'The -various operating companies controlled are prin cipal! v 'in good shape, for the increased use of electricity has ihelpetl offset the drop in industrial demand. The companies -were mostly acquired at the inflated valuations of boom times, the pyramided securities being peddled to the public. While the securities "holding corporations furnished capital (to operating companies during the era of good times, the (Slump has reversed the process, and operating companies ore. Hieing bled of 'earnings to pay interest and dividends on vast' security flotations. . ! The Insull investment trusts were formed at the height' f the bull market, with the idea of consolidating holdings and insuring Insull control of underlying companies. In ex Whange for his original stocks, Mr. Insull took mostly com- rrnon stocks 'in the trusts. To sustain the iprice, the .holding concerns undertook to support their securities in the face of falling market nnd became loaded up at -valuations which now look ridiculous. Under pressure of conditions, Insull securities fell with the market and the drop was hastened by the disposal of large blocks held by insurance concerns, brokers and banks Ibecause the slump impaired their margins. Maturing obli gations forced the receivership and a reorganization to un scramble the Jnsull omelet. Common stock holders may gut Stock inthe reorganized companics, if ihey -subscribe for new Maturities. Note and preferred stockholders will fare better. TThe wind-up of the holding concerns will leave nothing fur Investors in their securities.

HUBBARD MARKET ROAD BEING VIEWED Doris Blake Says:- Ctrl Shows Her Grati tude When Boy Sates Her The girl says she kissed the .young man when he was leaving because she thought It was so kind of him to come and spend the evening with her. And she told him how good It was 01 nun. That was six weeks ago, and he hasn't called since. Also, -he dldnt stop to talk to her when she ran into rum on the street one day since. Now, If there Is one way not to make a lavorabie impression on a young man It Is to be so . grateful for his company as all that. It's enough to say you enjoyed the eve ning and say It with feeling. But kissing a young man out of sheer gratitude for tile hours he spent wun you just, isn t done. Not If you want your stock to .go up with mm. When young men go calling, do ing It in the name of charity Is the last thing they have In mind. They go to spend an evening with a airi -wno promises to be Interest ing. attractive and the kind of alrl wno would be appealing to other. soya as wen. Anything less than inai in the girl they were to snend (an evening with would be lost time. imagine, -then the eonfusloa of a young man after what might be surmised -as a rather nrlf ronsolnnii evening to In wnbtaoed for his ajnoness.

President Eamon de Valera told the United Press in an Interview. De Valera has achieved the firs'. step in nis program, passage by the dial of the first reading of the bill aimed to abolish the oath of allegi ance from the Free State constitution. Our decision has been reached after long deliberation end consid eration of all Its possible conse quences," the presdient said as he sat at his desk laden with docu ments on the Anglo-Irish negotia tions regarding abolition of the oath and retention of the 115.000,000 land annuities. "We have, I may add, no reason to think that there is any danger of economic war," he continued. "The Irish Pree State is by -far the best customer Great Britain has. We buy more goods from her than she buys am us. "Last year the Free -State was. -with the exception df South .Africa, the -only Important -customer of Great Britain with whom that coun-i try had a favorable balance of trade British statesmen re 'not likely wantonly to -embark -en nine of action which would Interfere with a trade 'position so -advantageous to tneir country." following an explosion In a mine at Ha hi, England, -which caused t he death of 37 men, 4M0 workers In the .district struck 'Until ssured more safety, and the -government has riled that they are entitled to unemployment benefits while strlrj ing. 61 other boys and dates In order to impress. And though this isn't good billiards, -either, it is more advis able to over-sell oneself than under sell. The latter a girl unquestion ably does (or a boy does) who over- expresses reelings of gratefulness. Water Collection Plan Not Popular With Hubbard Folk -Hubbard An Innovation not pop ular In Hubbard eras started several months ago. Water -bills not paid by the loth at each month are d dared 'dellnauent and paid col lector is sent by the city to try to collect these bills. So far, accord ing to Ben Miller, who has bean col lecting for the city, the movement has proven that persons who have not the 11-60 plus each month to pay at the pay station have -not that amount either when be calls for it the next day or two at their homes. Indignant housewives, who usually come to the door when the collector comes have pledged each other and themselves not to pay any collector -but to Inform him that they will pay at the usual pay station when they have the money. RALLY DRAWS MANY TO AMITY MONDAY ary of the Neighbors of Woodcraft ledge.

O. F. hall of Amity. The floor work was put on by the different circles. Various grand officers ware present- ana -gave -short addresses. Bach circle put on s stunt. This meeting, marked the 31th birthday annlvers-(court -when the auditors put in the PAYMENT OF f HIES TO STATE HELD UNFAIR Injustices in 'the taw -which quire the county to pay over to the state fines for traffic "violations when state officers make arrests on state highways, were touched on by County Judge Slegmund Thurs day when commenting on the $5,000 or $6,000 which state auditors claim Marlon county owes the state. "When an arrest Is made by a state traffic officer on a state highway and the man is brought before the local Justice and fined. If he pays the fine the money goes to the state," said the county judge. "In event prosecution falls, or the man refuses to pay his fine or Is sentenced to Jail, then the county. keeps him in Jail at county expense.' It appeals to us as a rather one sided law and we'd like to know Just where the county gets off in the proceedings." ' Just -whether or not the eointy will pay over the money -which it is alleged -has been accumulating in the county treasury of f and on since 1923 still awaits mn opinion by Dis trict Attorney -John -Carson '.to whom it was referred by toe county states ctalm. Former Justice of the Peace 3ra- xter Small stated Thursday that a. considerable amount of the -fines which have accumulated in the county treasury accumulated -dur ing 'the term of the late justice Kuntz who preceded BmalL "I -understand that all of thef lnes collected for such traffic violations were turned Into the county trea sury by Justice Kuntz," said Small. "During .my term most of 'them were paid over to the state trea surer. But In any instance where there was any shadow of a -doubt as to whether the money should go to the state or to the county I turned the money over to the coun-i ty treasurer. So there are a num ber of such fines which the state now claims to be due to the state treasurer and no doubt there is a basis for controversey over some of these as there was a question In my mind at the time should go to the county -or the state." Like Judge legmund, former JusUce Small states 'that 'there Is an Injustice In the taw which turns over oil of these tines to the stats when the county nays 'for Ithe court machinery to collect them. "It sometimes -happens that a state officer brings -in a 'man and he isn't convicted and consequently there is no fine. But the county pays the costs while It la not reim bursed by the state for fines that it does collect." On the other band It has been pointed out that the state pays the salary of the district attorney. But at the same time the salary of the deputy who .handles virtually all the prosecutions in the Justice court Is paid irom county funds. Regardless of whether the law works an injustice on the county there is little doubt but the county will pay the state in event the dis trict attorney rules that it should.
