TAX COLLECTIONS
COMING SLOWLY
VERY FEW ARE SETTLING WITH
THE TRUSTEE FOR THIS
YEARS LEVY.

Tax collections on the new books
for 1912 are proceeding slowly with
County Trustee McFall. Although
all county and state taxes are due
on Oct. /, comparatively few people
pay before the first of the year. The
penalty does not apply until Feb. 20
and a majority will wait until jan
uary and February before they make
their annual contribution for the ben
eft of the local and state excheqners.
In the panic year Of 1907 when folks
had their confidence in banks some
what shaken by the suspension Of
payments, there was a rush to make
early payments of taxes, but since
then the amounts collected Setore
the first Of the year have steadily de
clined.

A New Debate on the Question Are
Women Growing Less Refined"

From the New York Times.
Are women growing less refined" was
a question which precipitated sharp DIS
cussion at recent luncheon where SOMA
interesting women were assembled Tia
few men who We're present were eminent
enough to make their comments valuable
as evidence OF what the intelligent and
experienced masculine mind thinks of
some Of the amusements and development
OF the modern girl OF fashion.
All. with one exception. agreed that.
judged by our old standards. the women
or the day had lost some OF their refine
ment. This exception was a distinguished
jurist. and his point of view was so UNI
expected and sane that il should ne
handed on TO others
He boldly declared that while the mod
ern young woman may have lost some
OF the demure, appealing little ways
which women OF refinement habitualiy
affect, there had grown up instead a man
ner OF charming camaraderie, which to
his mind was infinitely more satisfying.
and with this gay camaraderie there had
grown into existence a sane innocence
which to him was tremendously appeal
ing.
He admitted that il was a great COM
fort TO be able to discuss topics OF in
terest OF all kinds without the fear OF
shocking the sensbilities OF the mode m
women, and that il was a relief TO find
OF blood, or left the room at the mention
OF divorce. which the truly refined
girls OF other days would most assured y
do
He said that he would have to confess
that his granddaughter used language
and INDUCED in sports and amusements
that he at one time had only considered
suitable for his grandsols, Cut he had
been educ9ted to see the error OF HIS
ways, and he unhesitatingly declared that
his granddaughter was the best ALL
round companion that he knew OF. Yet
unQuestfonably she was not so refined
as her grandmother.
She handles without gloves topics that
the women OF older days would never
even discuss. but personally he found the
modern girl enchanting in her frank fear
lesspess. and not only that. but infinitely
more capable Of taking care of herself
and others than the girls of a more re-
fined era. His grandsons had been saved
many scrape. he said, by the compre-
hending companionship of their sister,
who frequently put on the gloves and
blackened an eye with the best OF them.

Even more wonderful than light itself
Is the medium by which its waves are
carried. And what is this medium? IT
is not air, 1t is not q gas, it Is not a
LIQUID. Is it matter? In order to be mat
ter. as we understand II, a thing must
possess two characteristic properties one
Of these is inertia, the other Is weight.
Inertia means the active resistance SHOWN
by all matter to a change in its condition
Of rest or motion. Weight is the measure
of the attraction one body has for an
other, whether they be atoms or suns.
The medium that bears light from star
to star, or from a candle to the eye, SO
far as we know, has only one OF the
properties Of matterInertia-
Are we not justified, therefore, In say
ing, with our present knowledge OF the
subject, that the light-bearing medium
called by scientists the luminiferous
ether, is probably not a material thing?
The various properties 1t must possess
and without which 1t could not do all the
wonderful things that are claimed for 1T,
are more or less contradictory In their ma
ture Nevertheless. the luminiferous eth
er Is believed in by majority or
scientists, even though they do not pre-
tend to understand its nature.
1t is supposed to be everywhere. not
only filling the interplanetary spaces and
the vast abysses between the stars, but
also entering into the very heart. and be-
tween the very uuOlCCdiC' osSAc ~
what is known as matter. As young
said Of it: "It pervades the substance of
all material bodies with little or no re-
sistance. as freely, perhaps, as the wind
passes through a grove OF trees. The
stars and planets and all other matter
are riddled through and through by this
wonderful, mysterious thing. 1t has been
likened to a jelly in which are imbedded
few grains Of sand which correspond
to the matter in the universe.
Gold, for example, one OF the densest
substances known to man, Is permeated
completely by this strange. space-filling
ether, and platinum, another extremely
dense substance, is as the lightest. film
lest mist when compared with the vast
density Of the ether itself. 1t has been
estimated that the density OF the light
bearing ether is $1,000 million times great
er than that of platinum. and yet rare
ness so extreme Is claimed for this ether
that none Of the heavenly bodies Is i'm
peded in the slightest degree-that the
earth's orbital velocity OF nearly nineteen
miles a second, hundreds OF times the
cannon balls velocity, is not slackened by
q second in a million Of years through
any resistance it might meet with from
this almost incredible substance, II IT
really is a substance at all. It could not
serve as a medium by which light may be
transmitted with the enormous velocity
of over 1885, 600 miles per second unless
it is absolutely rigid and elastic, far more
so than if it were composed of solid
steel!
