8TAYING QUALITIES
"He played four years on the Scrubs
He never quit” This laconic and
somewhat unimpressive sentence lies
on a memorial tablet erected to a man,
who gaTe his life for his country. He
was a scrub on a college football team
and stayed there during his entire
career. The significant part of It Is
that he never quit.

is to be a scrub. He has been batter-

It takes taxes to qualify for regis

The books are open and they will
close pretty soon. The tax payers are
required to register before they can
vote and payment of the tax bill Is one
of the requirements of registration.
