Tax Bills For I5I2
Are Being Made Up

Sheriff Kettering. assisted by his
deputies and clerks, is now busily en-
Gagged in making out the tax bills for
the present year, and expects to have
the bills in shape for collection in
short time.
The tax bills this year will be both
mere numerous and somewhat larger
than last year, owing to the increase
in the valuation of real and personal
property, as returned by County As
SCISSOR Williams. Consequently 4 lit
tie more time viii be required to com

For several months past Sheriff
Kettering has been making collections

THE BEST NEWS IN THE PAPER.

Several newspaper men from dif
ferent cities got to discussing the
other day what was the best news
in the newspaper they We're reading
together. One of them insisted that
the game between the leaders in the
two league base ball championships
attracted the most readers. Another
persisted that it was the page of po-
litical speeches for the day. \ third
argued that the best news in that
paper was the column of classified adj
vertising, under the heads of Wants,
For Sales, To Rent, etc. He argued
that the information in these col
umns was read with keener interest
than anything else, because it related
more to peoples daily lives.
The women, he contended. were
particularly affected by such adver-
tisements as those for housemaids,
and of housemaids looking for posi-
lions. Even if they were not looking
for servants themselves, it threw
bright light on their own household
troubles.
The men, he said, We're touched
by the things that were being offered
for sale. The farmer found ont
which of his competitors was trying
to dispose of market produce; owners
of houses were interested to see
what other houses were selling for.
Men that rented houses were always
looking out for something better than
what they had.
Whether or not the newspaper
brother was right, it is certain that a
column of classified advertising al
ways comes down very close to home
life. 1t is scanned by a great many
people who enjoy seeing what others
are trying to buy or sell, even if they
are not searching for anything them
selves.
If then You have any unsupplied
wants, or you wish to sell anything,
if you want better job, if you want
help, the classified advertising in this
newspaper gives you an audience list
ening with keen interest to know
about the trade you want to make. A
small amount invested in this form of
advertising brings quick and wonder
