HIS OBJECTION.

A Chinaman applied for the position
of cook in family in one of our wes-
tern cities. The lady of the house and
most of the family were members of a
fashionable church and they were de-
termined to look we'll after the char
acter OF their servants So when John
Chinaman appeared at the door with
his application, he was asked:
DO you drink whisky ?''
NO" he said, 81 Clistian man."
do you play cards ?'
mo; l Clistian man."
He was employed and gave great sat-
isfaction. He did his work well, was
honest, upright, correct, respectful.
After some weeks the lady gave pro
gressive euchre" party, and had wines
at the table. John Chinaman was call
ed to serve the party, and did so with
grace and acceptability But the next
morning he waited OF the lady and
said he wished to quit work.
why, what is the matter ?" she in
quired.

HOW TO REDUCE TAXES.

The building of factories in Polk
county to the amount of over half
million dollars in taxable values has
enabled the county commissioners to
reduce the tax rate in that county to
81 80 on the thousand. The county rate
is now $500 on the 81 ,000-state and
county, 1920. The state rate being re-
duced 16 cents, the tax payers of Polk
get total reduction this year of $l.46
on the thousand, which they no doubt
will appreciate. IfCohb county would
build few more factories, our tax rate
could very we'll be reduced, but our
people seem Indifferent about building
enterprises here Four Marietta citi-
zens are going to take their money to a
Tennessee town to build a chair fec
rory. Another one put large amount
in $4,000 ice factory in Atlanta.
There are other Marietta citizens who
have put their money in and near At
lanta in factories and which if all had
been placed in Marietta in the same
kind of enterprises would have paid
good dividends and built up our town
and county and enhanced the value of
every mans property in the city. and
given our merchants increased trade.
We should do something to keep
our capital at home.
