Answer to last week's puzzle. I aG H A NDhIUEAGle'' PI A K R V I O IlJe T 6 Hco r'ni Iptc. !oiTa s ipo In tejy i l t E l o o T HSPHEilNmTfcl OH a? s SI J o D MSajjj AiV pjuTtjjN Ek ffyE:" Ha jrTji n tk i SeIs LnkUlNiNl (IbiHlNlErlslst" By Arthur Brisbane The Sun's Radium. He Believes in God. Our Guns Stay Down. Stabilizing Banditry. Scientists studied the earth's mag netic currents, as affected by the eclipse. Every ship's captain noticed that the eclipse had an effect on the compass. Science does not know why. Possibly some scientist got from this eclipse the most important infor mation of all, which has to do with the amount of radium in the eon. The sun's length of life and the lives of this and other planets depend on the sun's radio-active force. If the sua were merely burning up, as was once supposed, the life of bum an beings here might be cut down a few million years, whereas it will proba bly go on for several hundred million years, aided by radium energy in the sun. Bishop the Bight Rev. William Montgomery Brown, of Cleveland, is put out of the church. Accused of being unorhtodox, be protested, "I believe in God." But that was not enough, and he is out. Bishop Brown's exact description of God in which he believes would be interesting. One small boy, asked to describe God, replied instantly, "He's got a Jong white beard, and high-top boots." That was perfectly respect ful. It described the boy's highest ideal. Many human beings imagine a God somewhat as that little boy imagined Him, with a beard that might need trimming, boots to be mended, etc. What is the Right Reverend Bishop's idea of a Supreme Being managing aucb a universe as this, with time and space unlimited, millions of suns and planets, constant change every where, with everything whirling arid flying around and nowhere any com fortable stability? Can any human mind really have any but a childish conception orf uch a being? Our Navy heads might give the country information on a statement recently published by English papers. The British hav arranged their ships ao that they can take in water bal last on one side or the other, and thus by making the ship tip over, raise the guns to the desired elevation and increase their range without actually changing the mechanical adjustment of the guns. That aems to be highly ingenious, but of counts, we can't do it in this country because probably somebody in fcurope would object. A great surety company advertises 1100,000 reward for the return of a VitllJon dollars' worth of bonds stol en. It says it will pay ten per cent of the face value of any bond stolen, whenever it is obliged to make good insurance on such bonds. That's interesting news to bond bandits and holdup men. It tahilites t bwte Indiiatrv It ana ranteea thum $100,000 of good safe cash on a mil lion dollar bond robbery. But what bout the laws gatnst compounding our Income Tax. felony? It is proposed to create an "airport' for New York by roofing over the yards of the Pennsylvania Railroad. Temporary landing and leaving places for niers might thus be provided in many cities. That ought to be done, j Automobile roads, without grade crossings, could also easily be provid- j ed, making a roadway above railroad tracks running out through city su burbs. Railroads should be properly compensated, of course. Makeshift airports will soon be out grown, however. Before you die, in every big city, the week end will see thousands of flying "club cars," each with its load of passengers, flying off to mountains, or seaside, in Summer; to Florida, California, etc., in Winter. The Philadelphia Mint begins coin ing 6,000,000 half-dollar coins to com memorate the courage of General Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson and others, and the carving of the great memorial on Stone Mountain, near Atlanta. These coins have a meaning even more important than their meaning as memorials of courage and artistic enterprise. They establish even more firmly the fact that the Civil War belongs to an age that is past. And they will be prized in the North even more highly than in the South. Annual Newspaper Directory Is Issued Statistics Concerning Fourth Estate in Oregon Given; State Has 251 Publications. University of Oregon, Eugene, Feb. 3. Newspapers and magazines of gen eral circulation are published in 134 communities of Oregon, according to the annual survey of the state press made by Prof. George S. Tumball of the University of Oregon achool of journalism. The total number of per iodical publications listed in Prof. Tumbull's directory of the Oregon press is 251, or approximately the same as in 1923, when the number was 253. This year's total excludes all pub lications issued at educational insti tutions, but includes the various com munities in Portland, of which there are 17. Only one of these was Hit ted in the directory compiled last year. The addition of publications issued by educational institutions would Bend the total periodical publications pat oOO. Prof. Tumbull's annual survey shows that two new daily papers were started in the state in the past year, the Central Oregon Press, at Bend, and the Klamath News, at Klamath Falls. Both of these advanced from twice-a-weeks, bringing the total number of dailies in Oregon to 33, an increase of two in the year, since there were no fatalities in this field. New weekly papers totaled 8, ex ceeding by 1 the number of deaths in this field. One of the 7 weeklies that expired, however, was a paper printed in a nearby town of larger sire, and one was an exclusively farm news pa per, reducing to 6 the total number of actual home-town weeklies that failed. Jn the twice-a-week and weekly field no paper is counted which is a part of a daily newspaper. Thus the reduction of twic-a-weeks from 7 to 4 is not a loss of independent twice-a-weks, which have held their own at 4, with the additions of the Cottage Grove Sentinel and the St. Helens Mist to the number, counterbalancing the loss of the Bend and Klamath publication that moved to the daily class. Nineteen Oregon papers reported changes of ownership during the year LEXINGTON BRIEFS Karl Miller and Ed Cummings met with a very painful accident Monday night when the auto they were driv ing ran off the road near the Cecil Warner home, turning over and pinn ing Mr. Cummings underneath. Mr. Miller was thrown clear of the car but was badly hurt in the fall. He managed to stagger to the Warner home for help. Mr. Warner, with a party of friends that were visiting him, immediately rushed to the scene of the accident and rescued Cum mings from his perilous position. Dr. Walker was called and found both men quite badly hurt, Mr. Miller sustained broken ribs and bruises and Mr. Cummings with a crushed shoul der and bruised head.

TUM-A-LUM LUMBER CO. Heppner, Lexington, lone THE revenue act of 1924 provides that the status of a taxpayer relative to the amount of his per sonal exemptions shall be deter mined by apportionment in accord ance with the number of months the taxpayer was single, married, or the head of a family. Under the preceding act the amount of the exemption to which the tax payer was entitled was determined by his status as a single person, a married person, or the head of a family on the last day of the taxable year, December 31, if the return was made on the calendar year basts, as most are. For example, a taxpayer mar ried on September 30, 1924, would be entitled to an exemption of $1,375. For the first nine months he is classified as a single man entitling him to an exemption of $750 three-fourths of the $1,000 exemption allowed a single person and for the last three months he is entitled to an exemption of $o25 one-fourth of the $2,500 ex emption allowed a married person. If on June 30, a taxpayer ceased being the head of a famfly the support in one household of a rel ative or relatives being discontin uedhe is allowed an exemption of $1,750 one-half of tha exemp tion of $1,000 granted a ringlo per son plus one-half of the exemption of $2,500 granted the head of a family. With regard to the $400 credit for a dependent, the t?ix payer's status is determined as of the last day of the taxable year. If, during the year, his support of such dependent ceased, he is not entitled to this credit. thirty-seven yeara ago to work on construction of the railroad, later taking up a homestead, and has re sided here nntil two years ago when with his family he moved to Salem.
