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

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

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.
