Two methods for taxing billboards
and other outdoor advertising are be-
fore the Massachusetts legislature
One plan provides for an excise tax Of
10 cents a square foot on all outdoor
advertisements displayed for more
than seven consecutive days when the
advertisements do not pertain to the
place or property upon which they are
located. The tax would be paid to the
state. and the highway commission
would grant licenses for billboards
etc. The other plan proposes to tax
billboards and the like as real estate.

Sidney Is
Julesburg 0
That was the result of the
morning base ball game Satur-
day.
1t was a sad affair. Only
seven innings were played. Our
team was simply ouclassed.
And it is not at all surprising, as
seven of the Sidney players are
paid men, picked from different
places while the local team, with
possibly one exception, are home
boys, and cannot expect to win
against semi-professionals.
The game in the afternoon
between Holyoke and Julesburg
was won by the former team,
the score being 8 to II. These
teams are about evenly matched
and put up an interesting game.
The game was frequently inter
rupted by showers. Six auto
mobile loads of fans came over
from Holyoke. and others came
on the train. A dance was given
at the opera house in the evening
by the home team and many of
the Holyoke crowd stayed over.
