TITHE CHIEF SOURCE flF ARANIAN RfVFNIIC

. wi nuriiiimi iiiufl Ealiui. UP TO PRESENT TIME

(By Associated Press) TIRANA, Albania, May 30. The Biblical tithe is the chief source of Albanian revenue and has constituted until the present time a "single tax" policy. A new fiscal policy is being introduced and prominent among the many items proposed for taxation are beds, for in this primitive country a bed is regarded as a luxury. The origin here of the tithe can be traced to the Turks, who for centuries have collected it from the people of Albania. It being a simple method of levying and a circumstance to which all the inhabitants had become accustomed, it was adopted by the new independent government as a means of revenue. The new government, however, has not found it a very pro ductive kind of tax because of the ability with which the taxpayers are able to conceal their Incomes. So skillful are the inhabitants in evading a large share of the tithe, that new methods of taxation are being put into effect. "The tithe is still our chief source of revenue," said Kol Thaci, Albanian Minister of Finance, to the correspondent of The Associated Press. "We depend upon it for the current expenses of the government but we find that it does not render sufficient return to let our taxing stop there. We are already planning a new scheme of taxation. It is proposed to place a tax on beds, foT to us the bed is not an absolute necessity. Our people have been used for centuries to Bleeping on the floor and continue to do so to this day. Today we see that beds are gradually being introduced by those who -an afford them, so we are proposing to place a tax on these beds as an article of luxury." Ku Klux Klan Pays Visit to Newcastle Baptist Church; Give $50 to Building Fund NEWCASTLE. Ind.. May SO. The Ku Klux Klan presented the Baptist church with $50 to be applied on the building fund, at the services Sunday night. The presentation came when the church was within $200 of its goal of $25,000. The church secured pledges and cash yesterday amounting to $28,150, bringing the total in the building fund up to $43,150. Eight white robed members of the Klan entered the church shortly after S o'clock. A knock was heard at the door and when an usher answered it, in' walked the eight men. Seven of them marched down to the pulpit, while the eighth remained on guard at the door. Two .other Klansmen were in automobiles in front of the church. Marched to Front The seven men in white formed a cross in front of the pulpit. They went through a brief maneuvers and without a word handed a long envelope to the Rev. J. W. Kinnett, pastor of the church. They then turned and xValked from the church. The Rev. S G. Huntington, state secretary of the Baptist convention, who directed th5 church campaign, Invited the; Klansmen to remain for the balance of the service, but they made no reply and after getting back to the two automobiles, quickly disappeared. While the appearance of the Ku Klux Klan members at the church created a sensation, there was no demonstration and the ceremony was said to have been impressive. A few children in the audience were frightened by the sudden appearance of the figures in white hoods and gowns. Conditions In Moscow Continue to Improve IBy Associated Press) MOSCOW, May 30.

RICHMOND 1 Margaret Seddon, who plays the part of the mother In "Just Around the Corner," a Cosmopolitan-Paramount picture, which Frances Marlon directed and wrote from a story by Fannie HurBt, hurried from Porto Rico to New York to work in this picture. Miss Seddon, who was playing in another production In Porto Rico, received a cable from Cosmopolitan Productions to return as 6peedily a3 possible because she was considered ideally suited to the role. The actress caught the first ship leaving the island for home but when the vessel arrived in New York harbor it was detained at quarantine because of bubonic plague in Porto Rico. Production on "Just Around the Corner" was held up a few days until Miss Seddon was permitted to land by the health authorities. "Just Around the Corner" is being presented at the Richmond theatre. It tells the story of a poor East Side fam ily in New ork and is said to he a worthy successor to "Humoresque" on which Miss Hurst and Miss Marion collaborated. Besides Miss Seddon there are in the cast: Lewis Sargent, Sigrjd Holmquist. Fred C. Thomson, Edward Phillips, Peggy Parr. Mme. Rose Rosonova and William Nally. WASHINGTON Have you a litle Spanish grandmother in your home? "It's your loss if you haven't," says Bebe Daniels, star of "A Game Chicken," which will open Sunday, June 4, at the Washington theatre. Miss Daniels has a quaint little grandmother who is, in her way, as interesting as the pretty star of Realart Pictures herself. Eva de la Plaza Griffin is the daughter of a one-time governor of Colombia. On a trip to Buenos Aires she met the American consul in that city, and married him as the culmination of a real international romance.

MURRAY VAUDEVILLE "Short and Sweet Revue" heads the attraction at the Murray thla half of the week. The present bill will run through Tuesday, the high school senior play being given on Wednesday. The "Revue" Is specially set with fine scenery which contrasts with the gowns and costumes of the three girls. An unusual opening is presented by May and Hill. Their act consists of Jokes and singing. Billy Roeder presents the opening act. He sings snappy songs and tells some jokes. For persona who like acrobatic stunts, the Turner brothers present an unusual attraction. MURRAY What is probably one of the oddest notions that ever lodged in the brain of a young and pretty actress, is harbored by Eileen Percy, the William Fox star, who is appearing this week at the Murray theatre in "Hickville to Broadway." This notion is nothing less than an ambition to play an old woman character part preferably of tne hag type. "Sounds queer. I know." she com mented at the Fox studio in Los An geles, "but I can't get rid of the feel ing that I should like to try It just once, anyhow. Characters of that sort have a great fascination for me. So watch me. The chance may not come soon but it will come." It may be added that any one Who can vision the beautiful Eileen as a lepulsive hag is gifted with Borne lively power of immagination. MURRETTE Beautiful architecture and striking scenic effects are predominant fear lures of Norma Talmadge's brilliant and powerfully moving production, "Smilin' Through," which is playing at the Murrette theatre this week. A pretty little cottage in Ireland, a quaint old English village, a beautiful wedding fete of the 60's in a picturesque garden whose bowers and trees are hung with gay lanterns, a tragic interruption by a rejected suitor, stirring scenes of 1914 when England's young manhood was called to the colors a romance of modern backgrounds all these are shown in a magnificent screen panorama, the sheer beauty and pictorial splendor of which are in themselves a crowning triumph of the photo-dramatic art. Added to this is a wonderful story of love and tragedy, in which Norma is at her histronic best in the dual role of the beautiful Moonyeen of the 60'a, and the equally charming Kathleen of modern times.

operation between manufacturer and consumer.

Recognizing this, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has developed a service bureau headed by lubricating engineers of wide experience whose business it is to co-operate with designers, manufacturers and users of all types of machinery that they may get a maximum of correct lubrication at a minimum of cost. In developing this service the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) had a twofold motive first that Standard Oil products shall render the utmost of service and second that the user shall get full value for the money he spends. As a result of this service the customer finds it unnecessary to carry on costly experiments. The lubricating specialists of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) will, upon request, study his problems and tell him the exact oils and greases needed to insure correct lubrication of his machinery. This highly specialized service is rendered without cost. It is one of the underlying principles of this Company that the customer must be given the benefit of our wide experience, that his lubricating costs per year may be as low as possible. In the individual plants, large and small, which the lubricating engineers of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) have served, this principle is well recognized. Plenty of oil does not necessarily mean good lubrication. Correct lubrication consists in applying the right oil in the right place in the right way. To enable its patrons to achieve correct lubrication is the business of the lubricating engineers of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). This lubrication service is but one of the many specialized ways in which the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) serves industry and hence serves society.

STARTS INVESTIGATION OF POSTAL EXPENSES (By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, May 30. Postmas-j ter General Work has begun a thor-j ough reorganization of the postoffices of the country as a result of the discovery recently that more than a quarter million dollars was needlessly spent each year in one of the larger offices of the country. An official of the office of the chief postal inspector was detailed by Dr. Work when he was first assistant postmaster general to make a detailed analysis of the surplus help, material and apparatus in question. After four months reorganizing various departments, it was found, it was said, that $3,000,000 could be saved each year on the maintenance of the office. Dr. Work was so impressed that upon assuming the postmaster generalship he detailed a score or mor einspectors to the various offices with a view to curtailing expenses wherever possible. Instructions were issued, however, that nothing should be donej that would impair the efficiency or expeditious handling of the mails. Complete reports are expected soon which will aid the postmaster general to decide where retrenchment beet may be made. "First of all," the postmaster general said today, "the postofflce must Miss S. Martensen Tells How Cuticura Healed Pimples " I had a great many pimples on my face. They were very large and itcnea ana purned so that I could not rest at night, and I was always scratching. The trouble lasted about two months. I tried different remedies without any benefit. See ing an advertisement for Cuticura Soap and Ointment I sent for a free sample which seemed to help me so I bought more, and in about two weeks was completely healed."

difficult at times to cut down a force.
