QUESTIONED GOOD
BREEDING BEFORE
COURT IN PARIS
Strange Issue in Action of

Paris. Dec 2s-What constitutes
good breeding? As question that long
has furnished society with food for dis
cussinn and has been a fruitful subject
for argument in the cafes, but 1t is
doubtful If the fine points of good
breeding ever got before a court before,
until few days ago when Paris
Judge was called upon to decide on the
manners Of a child. 4 prominent physi-
clan eighteen months ago obtained a
decree of separation from his wife and
their only daughter was given by the
divorce court into the custody Of the
mother,
Recently the father sought the return
of the child on the ground that she
was not being properly brought up. De-
teetiyes employed by the physician
We're his chief witnesses. and their evil
dence was matched by that of other
detectives hired by his former wife
The fathers detectives testified that
the little miss behaved in shocking
fashion, having none of the graees of
polite society. They said that she
leaned her elbows on the table at meals,
laughed raucously and ostentiously.
talked loudly and generally made her
self nnflatteringly remarked for her
language and attitude Worse than all
that, they said, when her father re-
preached her for her lack Of deeoram
she laughed at him and made faces at
him.
Then came the mothers witnesses
who swore the ehild's manners were
irreproachable, except that she some
times took up her bread and bit It In
stead of breaking it with her fingers
as the latest Paris etiquette demands
Also IT was admitted that she some-
times helped herself to salad with her
fingers and sometimes forgot to wipe
her mouth after drinking But she
handled her knife and fork properly
they said, sat UP we'll at table, never
raised her voice more than little lady
should and always answered her
mother with smile. The Judge took
the matter under advisement

AMERICANS REPRESENTED
AT THE PARIS AUTO SHOW

Paris, Dec. 2s.-Seven American
makers are well represented at tile
French automobile exposition this
month. The cars and the relatively
low prices have excited considerable
discussion among French manufaetur-
ers as to whether the time has not
come to discourage importation by Il
stiff tariff
The opinion of French automobile
men Is that the American supremacy
In cheap and light car manufacture Is
an industrial one, bound up in their
ability to organize factories for turn
ing out large numbers of automobiles
of the same model. thing which 1t
would be next to impossible to carry

I AS to politics, will say l was

that ticket until 1883. Being
farmer began to study political
questions from that standpoint
and l became convinced that it
was not to the farmers interest
to support the republican party.
In '96 l joined the democratic
party under the leadership Of

yet under his leadership, and l
think more of the party prin-
ciples and Mr.. Bryan than ever
before. These Bryan principles
which used to be denounced and
ridiculed by the republicans are
the principles which are most
popular today. They are the
genuine, true progressive prin.

ABOUT
SCHOOL
TAXES
Why Rural Districts Have
a Kick Coming on
High Levy

just to show the people Of the
rural school districts how we'll
the republicans whom they sent
to the last Legislature love them
and work for the interests Of the
schools in rural communities, we
are going to recite a few facts.
Previous to 1911, one third of
the taxes paid into the general
school fund was divided equally
among all schools of the county.
The last Legislature changed this
apportionment law. One of Can
yon county's representatives was
chairman of the committee which
made tins change, and the change
was supported heartily by all
his colleagues. Notice just how
this law operates:
School District No. 1. a rural
district near Payette, pays for
the support OF schools into the
general fund the sum of$1175. 80
and receives from the same fund
$330.S4. District No. 8, the
Parma district, pays $4327.7S
and receives $22S7 .35. District
No. 1S, the New Plymouth dis
trict, pays $7574.17 and re-
cceives $6999.45. No 23, rural
district near Payette, pays ST.
617.09 and receives $S96.S7.
District No. 26, the Tucker school
near Parma. pays $417S so and
receives $1432 81. District No.
40, the Mountain View district
near Parma, pays $3396 81 and
receives $1351.44. No. 46, the
Roswell district, pays $2455.91
and receives 1912 SO No. SO, a
rural district near Nampa, pays
S159S 81 and receives $549 "a
Compare this list with the fol
lowing:
The Payette school district
pays S9349 80 and receives
$13.932.62. The Caldwell dis.
trict pays $14,196.61 and re.
ccives $1S,572 on. The Emmett
district pays $6574.3 32 and re-
ceives $14, 240 13.
