50,000 Millionaires
You mav not be surprised to
hear that 50,000 persons in the
Jnited States are classified as
millionaires by the income tax
returns. Included in the list are
members of families of 20,000
jersons who have each confessed
,o an income for 1919 averaging
$50,000 apiece.
In 1917 there were only a few
more than 16.000 millionaires in
he United States.
The war, according to these
figures, has added 64,000 new
magnates. Persons with annual
incomes of more than 1 million
dollars a year increased from 141
to 162 last year.
By all means let’s take 25 per
cent of the war taxes off big
big business and put it on the
land, lest big business “be
crusaed by the burden.’’ Let the
farmer dig it up for Uncle Sam,
if he can.-Cappers Weekly.

Making Kiowa County Fair for
1920 the best fair ever held was
the subject of the most important
action of the Lions Club at their
regular weekly luncheon today.
It was agreed at the meeting
that the club would go in a boby
on a big booster trip which has
been arranged to boost for and
advertise the fair and a heavy
penalty imposed upon those not
going on the trip without a reas-
onable excuse.
Land lubbers who want the
thrill of a trip in a diving sub-
marine will have the opportunity
to realize their wish at the Okla-
homa Free State Fair. The
Wortham Shows, the Carnival
Aitraction of the Fair has a new
amusement stunt tn s year in
which a miniture submarine a
model of the larger boats, built of
steel and weighing mote than
half a ton, dives and rises under
its own power in a huge tank.
The boat is propelled by its own
storage batteries and is ten feet
long. Voyagers experience a
brief sea voyage when the sub-
ma ine makes three revolutions
of the tank, then dives and rises
under its own power. Some
thrill and the spice of entire
novelty to the experience.

Wise government can do a lot
to brighten up our days; wise
government will hit the spot in
fiftv-seven ways. And still we’ll
have to buckle down and saw
our share of oak, if we’d have
credit in this town and not be
always broke. Good government
will help us all. if we should
help ourselves, and we’ll have
pictures on tfoe wall, and pies
upon the shelves; and we’re
secure in what we own of land
or hay or gold, and when we
earn a shining bone, it’s ou-s to
