For The Little Ones.

The latest and most interesting institution in the town is the Kind ergarten started by Miss Florence Root. She dearly loves little ones and the little ones soon fall in love with the schoolmarm. She has taken the log building romantically situated in the woods near the hos pital and there the children gather daily. The hours are made pleas ant for them and they are acquir- ing useful. rudimentary knowledge while being entertained. It does not appear to them that they are being educated-they take it all as play-and are eager for the open ing of school each morning and the teacher enjoys it as much as the kids do. At lunch time all repair to the woods and enjoy nature. Strange 10 say, there is not a boy in the school, though Miss Florence would like to have them. The institution is blessing to both mothers and youngsters.

THE APPROPRIATIONS

suing Year by the County Com
missioners Yesterday

The county commissioners yester
day made appropriations for the en-
suing years. The total appropriations
Tor the different funds amount TO a
little over $4,000.
The appropriations made yesterday
are the first that have been made for
many years, the expenses of the
county all having been paid in the
past years out of the general fund.
AS result of a decision handed
down last years by the state supreme
court, it was learned that taxation
made In this manner was illegal and
that persons did NOT have to pay theis
taxes unless the appropriations were
made for the different funds instead
of through a general fund.
The task Of making the appropria.
tions was big one for the commiss
toner's, as they had to estimate what
it would cost the county for court ex.
penses, maintenance of roads and
bridges, expenses of the different off
ces etc. Under the law when one
fund is exhausted all claims against
that fund must go over until another
