NY term of office expires Jan. l,
1912. The people of this county have
always assisted the retiring sheriff by
their early and prompt payment of
taxes. l feel that they will not be less
kind to me. The law authorizes and
empowers the sheriff to collect dam
ages on all taxes not paid on or by
Dec. Is. l will not be in a position
this year to indulge anybody, and in or
der to assist the taxpayer in getting
his land numbers correct and expedit-
ing matters, l wish to make the fol-
lowing suggestions: The most accurate
business men make mistakes and often
list their lands wrong to the tax asses
sor; therefore, I urge ar early call at
my office with a correct list of your
land numbers. 80 that if they do not
agree with the assessors books, the
error may be corrected. This is more
| to the interest of the land owner than
anybody else. 1t takes time to look
up and compare records; therefore, II

Mrs. Robert Sharp was hostess on
Tuesday afternoon last, of what was
declared to be one of the most unique

four young ladies were invited to a
supposed rock party. After enjoying
two games of rock, Mrs. Sharp came
in and told them they had all heard the
story of the "a and 20 blackbirds baked
in a pie" so she couldn't 60 into de-

On entering the room, an exclamation
of admiration was heard from each
guest, for the sight was most beautiful.
In the center of the table, underneath
a beautiful electrolier, shaded red for
the occasion, was a big red pie with "a

each bird was a red ribbon and red
heart, which was drawn by each young
lady. The first little bird told of an
engagement. Each bird ION his back
