County Court Fixes the Levy.

A special session OF the County
Court of Jefferson county was held on
MONDAY for the purpose of laving the
levy fJr 1906 and for the transaction
of other business. The levy was
fixed at 25 cents on the hundred dol
lars. while the road tax for the sever
al districts was placed as follows ::
Charles Town district, II! cents; ;
Middleway 10 cents; Kabletown l23
cents; Shepherdstown l8cents; Har-
per's Ferry, IA cents.
The county levy last year was 90
cents, vice as much as this year, and
the road tax for this district 80 cents,
as against Is cents this year. The
reduction is made because of the
large increase in the assessed valua-
tons of both real and personal prop
erty. Real estate was increased by
about go per cent, while considera-
bic amount of personal property
which has heretofore partly or IN
whole escaped taxation has this year
been placed upon the assessors books
While the rate is lower, the same
amount of money will, of course,
have to be raised for county purposes.
The total levy for all purposes in
Shepherdstowu district will be about
70 cents on the hundred dollars, as
against 1926 last year. The county
levy is 25 cents, road Is cents, teach
ers' fund Is cents, building fund s
cents, and the estimated State tax 10
cents.

On the subject of riches the presi-

There is nothing l abhor more tnan
the telling of an untruth, whether a
conventional untruth or not, and
would on no account be understood as

entirely is to preach to them not only

sity of every man being thoroughly
self supporting as basis for spiritual
life. He concluded with the sentiment
that the only life really worth living
was one that made others better be-
