Read biography, and you will find
it the exception when a city bred man
or woman rises to great eminence,
and a commonplace that the country
and small towns have afforded the
world the large majority of its think
ers, authors, financiers, artists, and
leaders of all kinds.

MISS HERRICk ON TAXATION
WITHOUT REPRESENTATIO

1t does not seem reasonable to me
that a woman who owns real estate
should not have some word in the tax
alton of her property, says Christine
Terhune Herrick. If my mother and
my sister and I own a hundred acres
apiece in a certain locality, it is not
fair that half dozen men, holding
between them perhaps twenty acres
of land should be able to decide the
amount of taxes we should pay and
the kind of improvements to be made
in the vicinity of our estates, and that
we should have no choice but to accept
their decision. For it never does any
good for us to go with a protest to the
Office of the tax-collector, as they say
we can do, on that deadly slip Of paper
which informs us of how much we are

ship, or county. or state. The board of
assessors receive our objection. and

sown in them, and, II am not very
much mistaken, there is trouble ahead.
1t is not fair. even for children's own
good, to deprive them SO absolutely of
what are to them the delights OF life.
Not least among these is freedom to
be. in some measure, the unwise little
animals they desire to be.
