Tax Matters.

The Burlington County Board of Taxa.
ton has completed the work Of preparing
the abstract of ratables for the year 1919.
The assessed value of property in the
county was increased 81 .013, 1928. OF this
increase real estate gained 1851, $3.50 and
personal property went ahead $251, 642.
How much of this will come off on appeal
remains to be seen but the assessors have
done their work so thoroughly and care
fully that 1t is not likely that there will
be much change. The amounts needed
for municipal purposes and the tax rates
are given below In comparison with the
same items for 1911.

The canvass by the board of directors
of the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion, !of Mount Holly, to raise aY. N. G. A.
building fund has finally closed. The
amountlsought to be raised by this canyass
was 81, 500, but this sum was not realized.
When the canvass was started last year
the directors believed that with the whole
fund secured, the mortgage debt on the
property could be paid and the future
work Of the association rendered self sup
porting without further financial assist
ance from the people. But, In view of
the result, the need Of more equipment
and the current operating expenses may
require more funds. However, contribu-
lions somewhat more than sufficient to
satisfy the mortgage of $500 on the build
ing were received. Accordingly. ON Oc-
tober 9Th, this mortgage was fully
paid and cancelled. Hence the directors
desire publicly to express their sincere
thanks to all who contributed or aided In
this work. On Friday evening, October
10Th, the building will be reopened for
the ensuing year, at which time appre-
pirate exercises will be held to celebrate
the cancellation of the corporate debt.
Music, addresses and the burning of the
mortgage will be features of the enter
tainment. The public is cordially invited
to attend,

Lyman Howe this Evening.

Life without some thrills and sensa-
tional incidents would be rather dull
existence. Sometimes these thrills come
UNEXPECTEDLY as is illustrated by remark
able feature of Lyman H. Howe's new
program which will be presented at the
Opera House this evening. 1t shows the
the furious attack on horse by fero-
cious lion. The wild, untamed king of
beasts while searching for prey comes in
sight of horse. Even before the lion
appears on the scene the horse seems. to
feel premonition of some great danger
rs is seen by his terrified prancing. The
lion approaches prowling slowly. Sud
denly he spies the horse. Immediately
he leaps at his intended victim with one
terrified bound. At the same instant the
bullet from the rife of hunter in close
proximity finds its fatal mark and the
lion drops at the very feet of the horse.
Only the cool steady aim of the hunter
saves the horses life for the whole
incident occurs so rapidly that if the
hunter had missed the vital spot in the
anatomy of the enraged lion, he would
not have had time to FIRE another shot
before the lion would have destroyed the
horse. It is impossible to conceive the
tremendous thrill of the scene without
seeing it.
An infinite variety of scenes of Paris
and its environs, including the historic
palace of Versailles, with its beautiful
fountains, and trip along the pictur-
esque rivers of France-all presented in
the myriad hues and tints of nature; the
burial of the Maine; thrilling race be-
tween a hydroplane and feet of the
swiftest motor boats, including the Soc
horse power Ursula; and the bee industry,
are only a few of the many other big
features to be presented. [adv.

The Importance of choosing good men

practical illustration last week when the

be on hand, but he did not have forcepi
for tooth pulling with him. He did have
pair of pinchers used for surgical oper.

Why 1.-THE Home schoor' Could Not
Be Built

The decision of the taxpayers not to
appropriate money for a high school at
Columbus was most wise from every point
of view. In the first place there "a no
immediate need for 1t. The children of
Mansfield township who want high school
training have better facilities for getting
1t In neighboring high schools than we
could give them. We could not build,
equip and maintain high school such as
burlington has We could not employ
the class of teachers necessary in such
school. 1t is plainly beyond our means.
Every thinking taxpayer must see this
Now here we have the advantage of this
first class high school for our children
The cost Of transportation Is comparative
ly small, In fact no more than individuals
would have to pay to send their children
to Columbus. Shall we take our children
out OF first class high school and put
them into second or third class high
school and at the same time put upon the
shoulders of the taxpayer the burden of
paying for that second or third class high
SCHOOL, Surely we would not be guilty
of such folly. Local price ia all right in
its place, but we should not allow 1t to
destroy our judgment.
In communication signed "a Tax
payer, Columbus, Sept. 80, 1872 the
"AAUOA bAAC6 W HCl5uduC uL1SbIl l0dD
children sent out of the township to high
school are In surroundings that lead them
Ito acquire real contempt for home, for
decency, and for self respect" This Is
sheer nonsense. In the first place the
mos aone Of our neighboring high schools |
is aeWvs reprosch. The aim of higher |
education is first to instill In the heart of |
the child clean, high ideals Children in |
our neighboring schools are In this atmos- |
phere, under capable teachers We can
trust our children to their care. AS to |
being away from home-the children of |
farmers would be away from home if they |
went by train, as they would have to do |
to Columbus. We want our children to |
build up our own community and live
here If possible, but first of all we want
to give them chance to hold their own |
In any walk of life. That Is our first duty |
Furthermore, why should we build a |
high school In Columbus when our dis /
trict school houses are not fit to have our |
children In them2 For example. the
school house at Hedding is disgrace to /
the township. Here is the place to put
new buildings Let US have new district /
schoolhouses fit for our younger children,
where they will be safe, warm and COM
Portable. Taxpayers should demand this
at oace. 1t Is folly to put up the super
structure before we have foundation.
