Storage Space Is
Transformed Into

But like all monarchs left
their subjects to their
own de-
vices they have tended to become
tyrants and act on the ‘‘after me

WHARTON. March 25
Discard-
ed storage space in the bedroom if
Elvira Martinez, bedroom demon-
strator of the Pierce 4-H Club in
Wharton county, has been trans-
formed into a convenient clothes
closet for only 50 cents, according
to Miss Della A. Pfluger, assistant
home demonstration agent.
Byr adding a six inch closet was
made large enough to hang the
clothes as they should be. The 45
inches of wrasted space in the up-
per part of the closet was made
unable for storing bedding by add-
ing a partition and building a door.
A rod was added and a shoe rack
was built.
Until her closet was remodeled,
Elvira hung her clothes in another
corner of the room with a cutain
around them.

"One of the . most important
single questions today in Texas as
elsewhere is the system of taxation.
I am firmly convinced that the ad
valorem tax, as it exists today, is
unfair and unsound. Certainly, the
land owning classes receive a bene-
fit from the state for the protection
that the state gives them in making
them secure in the ownership of
that land. But there is no doubt in
my mind but that the landowners,
large and small, bear too much erf
a burden in our method of taxa-
tiori. Their income is not commen-
sureate with the price they pay for
the protection of their land.
"One of the solutions for this off-
balanced system of taxation is to
increase the taxes on our natural
resources. Texas is perhaps richer
