TO be built in the spring.
1t will take big bank account to
pay all of your taxes this year. The
reasons for high taxes are numer-
Gus, but the principal reasons are
as follows: First. Many districts
voted to put in expensive heating
plants and bought large assort-
ment of school supplies, which will
never be used, there being but few
country teachers who know how to
use them and a larger number who
do not care to know. Second. Elk
pensive bridges have been built. AL
these may be considered as luxur-
ies(0 and as such come high, like
branded peaches and silk under
shirts. If You wish to cut your tax
es down to the minimum, attend
the annual school and town meet
ings and endeavOr to participate IN
their proceedings. If you wish to
have republican government IN your
township md school district, attend
the meetings, help make the laws,
and vote for or against the improve
ments that may arise for discussion.
Don't wait until taxes are levied
and then kick about them.
VIM. and Jos. Garthwa1te had
business in Bloomington Thursday.
