Things that certain way are aone once In uually are done that way over and err- - again, allowing, of course, for proven change. One of the things they do la celebrate New Year, and they hare done It with a lot of noise and loss of sleep for many, many years. But their government started a new year recently, and as though those who direct Its affairs wanted to be the exception that proved the rule, they did not start out for a night of It It was the fiscal year, the mooey year, so to speak, for the government, and It constitutes the basis upon which all government functions are operated, predicated or planned. Tliat new year started, as I have aid, without any ballyhoo, and without celebration. The ballyhoo had taken place weeks before; the officials many had dona their staylng-unights aecause Instead of a celebration program, they had the difficult Job of laying out a program for payof the. government, ing the expenses ' determining what those expenses should be and deciding where the money could be obtained for performing all of the functions which we In other know as governmental. words, what those officials did was prepare a budget of Income and outgo. All of that was done prior to the new year of which I have spoken. The date of this new year came. Circumstances that Immediately preceded It may he described something as follows: the gigantic st- of books used by the treasury , were closed at 4:30 p. m. on June 30. They balanced, of course, but to make the re ceipts equal the expenditures for the twelve months preceding, there had been borrowings, or money obtained from the sale of government securities, such as bonds, notes, certificates of Indebtedness and treasury bills. The difference between the expenses and the regular receipts of money that the government did not have to return In other words, the amount of the borrowings constituted the government deficit for the year. Every agency of the government having money to spend closed Its books at the same time the treasury did, for the next day started a new fiscal year and reckoning was to start all over again. There were new funds available, appropriated by congress, for operating In the next twelve months or until June SO, 1033. Such was the circumstance of the government's new year. Trior to that time, as I have Indicated, the treasury, which Is the bank for all of the government, had told the President that It was going to need a lot more money than the tax laws then In operation would produce. So the President sent a messuge to congress, saying in substance that new taxes must be levied so that the Income of the government would be aa great as the necessary expenditures. The budget must be balanced, or as we used to say, we must live within our Income. Thus, stripped of bunk, verbiage and terminology, cross currents of political explanation and expostulation, the treasury was forced to turn back to the people for more money. It may seem to the residents of any particular township, county or state, that they are many weary miles from Washington; that the government Is some gigantic thing about which they need not concern themselves directly, but the point of this article Is to show the fallacy of such a view. The government at Washington Is just as near to all of us as Is the ministration of the township trustee or the Judges or Commissioners by whatever name known, in the county seat town or city. None can deny, therefore, the Influence exerted upon every citizen by the treasury for the simple reason that It, more than any other unit of the government, perhaps, touches that well known Institution, the pocket-book- . tpt jT " 4 graduates the EVEKT June college make a special effort to be back at commencement to time.

The Constitution fixed that matter In advance. It said congress should levy the taxes. In truth, however, congress has from time Immemorial followed the suggestions of the treasury rather closely, since the treasury Is better acwith technical matters. quainted There always have been and probably always will be differences, largely political, over the proposals of the treasury for raising taxes, but those differences are not pertinent here.

Stella Alden. her cousin, sat beside ber cracking nuts that were later to be chopped and used with cream cheese and other things for the Oiling of the sandwiches next day. She had stopped on her way to Cynthia's at the railroad station on a pretext of getting a time table and there she had seen some of the "boys of 1922." "If the gang Isn't all here," she said, "it is almost all here. You've no Idea how some of them have changed. I was talking to Harry Wallace 'member Harry? Well, he's quite gray but terribly good looking. And Fred's to put up at the Inn because he's brought his wife. Tim Bruce and Granger Tates and Piggy Brown are all back. Carrot Jones and Splnich Smith are coming and someone said they had heard In a roundabout way that Rocking Chair was 'Member Rocking Chair?" coming. Cynthia looked up with a suspicion of a smile. "Yes I do. But I don't believe he'd come, ne's been In South America ever since he graduated." "Queer fish, wasn't he?" from Stella. "Piggy Brown said he hadn't heard anything about him couldn't even remember why they called hlra Rocking Chair. Nobody could." Cynthia knew well enough but she didn't say so. In the days when the 1922 men were still undergraduates Professor Burton had held open house for students every Sunday afternoon and there were always fifteen or twenty who availed themselves of his hospitality. Cynthia's mother poured the tea in the old drawing room while a rather shy girl under Cynthia, twenty, had brought the tea things and the sandwiches and cookies from the kitchen. And almost every Sunday for two or three years a lank, rather awkward boy had sat at one side of rockthe drawing room In the ing chair, drinking tea, which he could not endure, for the sake of the cookies and other dainty morsels that went with it. He continued to come because each Sunday her mother had held his clumsy, brawny hand in hers and made him promise to come again the next week, and there was a mute look of gratitude in his deep gray eyes as he looked down at her. On the campus, In the dormitory all about the college town the tall, awkward student who was working his way through college was known as Rocking Chair. And Rocking Chair he had remained in the memory of classMost of them could not even mates. recall that his real name was Ben old-tim- e Owen. Since then, of course, rocking chairs had gone very much out of fashion. And Cynthia had met with no opposition on the part of her father when she wanted to carry the old rocker up Into the attic. Having cracked and shelled the nuts Stella made excuses. She wanted to dress for the ball game that afternoon. She thought from something that Piggy said that perhaps he might call her up. So Cynthia went on alone with the preparations for the next day's spread. Sunday morning Cynthia went tip Into the attic and In a dingy corner found the old rocker so covered with dust that It needed a thorough soap and water scrubbing before she called her father to help her carry It down to the old drawing room. There were tears in Cynthia's eyes because the sight of the old chair recalled so vividly her mother's understanding smile as an awkward boy had looked wistfully at her so many years ago. Fifty returned graduates crowded Joyously lnto the spacious old drawing room the next day and those who could not find seats sat on cushions on the floor. A tall distinguished man of thirty odd sat at one side of the room in a shabby old rocking chair. A group of men had gathered around hlra while with brief, terse responses he told them of the railroads he had helped to build In South America. They had not even known that he was In charge of the gigantic undertaking of which they hnd heard so much. Stella edging up to Cynthia as they brought In the plates of cookies and sandwiches whispered with awe: "It's Rocking Chair. Isn't he stunning and so distinguished!" Rocking Chair lingered after the others had gone. As he took Cynthia's hond In his there was the old wistful look In his clear gray eyes. "It seems like old times," he said. "You are very like your mother." It was an eventful reunion In many ways. For somehow as a result of It Stella, who had let so many chances of matrimony slip In her youth, actually persuaded piggy Brown Into think-In- g that It was he who hnd proposed. And a week after their marriage Cynthia and Rocking Chair were married In the stately old drawing room. ft Essence f non-Britis- h i j I , j tfid of MUtal Itte pi ON TOOT HANDKERCHin a..., an I AIM ir t HQ ft---- "' tt Soviet surgeons say that wltb carafe' b! lighting delicate work can be juJfi( a with the minimum of eye strain. e sWi Try Lydia E.
