nished the second number of his SER
les on 1.-The Social Teachings of Jes-
as" This morning he discussed the

also was strong in his disapproval OF
divorce But Jesus never was in IA
vor of second marriages.
Mr.. R. Barcley Spicer gave the in.
PRODUCTION to his series OF lectures
dealing with the Book of Acts. He
stated that in all probability st. Luke

Chapters / to 8; ca, The beginnings
of the world mission, Chapters to IL;

vuIING MACHINE /
PROBLEM NOW Up.
Board Has Not Decided Yet
Whether 1t Will Recon-
mend Their Purchase.

Recommendations of the board of
county commissioners for appropria-
lions for 1912, are held in allegiance
until the board determines whether or
not to ask for several thousand dollars
for the purchase of voting machines
for the county. All other estimates
are now on Ale with the county audit
or. The board has had such short no
tice in regard to the voting machine
problem that it will be week or two
before the commissioners can investi-
gate and ascertain the needs of the
county in this regard.
So far the estimates total close to
$4,000. The purchase of voting ma
chimes would mean an expenditure in
he neighborhood Of $4,000. In case
voting machines are purchased, it is
probable the county tax rate will be
increased a few cents, but otherwise.
this will not be deemed necessary.
Since an earlier report of the prepar-
atoms to finance county business in
1912, the board of commissioners has
increased it's estimate of the cost of
the registration of voters thousand
dollars. the recommendation now be-
ing $4,000.
The boards estimates of expense
will be reviewed by the county council
which meets in September. The coun.
Gil may either trim or increase any
of these estimates, or in fact refuse
them altogether. but inasmuch as the
ordinary expenses of the county are
rather well defined and can be approx
mated a year ahead within few dol
lars of what the actual expense will
be, the council is expected to endorse
whatever recommendations the com
missioners make.
