BEGIN IN the RIGHT PLACE.

A club In San Francisco burned Il
book which had been voted of immoral
tendencies, thus publicly proclaimins
the purity of the club and the charas-
ter of the book. But how did the men,
bership MT itself TO vote on the charac-
ter OF the nasty book? By reading
it of course
A couple of excellent women within
the acquaintance OF the Times Re
publican had heard much OF library
fiction TO its discredit. So they Sc
cured all the doubtful books and read
plain il analysis and description. The
conclusion vas thai they We're not al
all what they should be TO be distrib
uted among young and o!d. But they
read them. That was their only way OF
finding out.
1t Is this that the authors and pub

bank on this. 1t wins for them. for the
nasriesr magazines have the widest
circulation nowadays. And their cir
oulation is not based on the patronage
and approval OF the Sums. They get
their income from homes that would
not permit a vile woman to step across

TAX PAYING AND COMMON SENSE

Second payment Of taxes is due this
month and must be paid in every
county in the state or the delinquents
will be advertised and penalties
charged but, of course, no one knows
the exact amount due. An archaic state
law requires that the owner or agent
must appear in person at the county
treasurer's office and pay the taxes but
every other bill that anybody owes
nowadays is sent out by mai. and can
be paid by bank check. Business in
general has become modernized in fifty
years but not 50 the public business.
Some county treasurers struggle
within the limitations Of the law 10 ac-
commodate the public, but their sys-
TENS are seldom understood. In Mar
shall county last springs tax receipts
contained the fun years tax SO that by
deducting the payment made then one
can know what IS due now but that
statement has been forgotten for six
months and next spring there will not
even be that much Of notice avail
able.
What IS needed IS a statement Of
account due sent out thirty days prior
to each settlement date The extra
clerical help and postage should be
paid out Of public funds as the service
would be of ineslinable value to the
public. People need not then journey
many miles TO the court house TO pay'
their taxes but could send check just
as they pay their coal bills.
The Times Republican collects sub
ecription accounts from many thou
sands Of farmers in twelve counties
and practically all OF them now pay by
check. Hardy a man 's without his
telephone connection with the county
treasurers Office. Why ask him to

attend shall forfeit their two days
salary unless excused by the county
superintendent for physical disability.
That is worth knowing.
The school district without a high
school course must pay not more than
$3.50 monthly tuition for students
residing therein who, having attained
specified proficiency. shall apply for
admission to any high school. II is
also provided that high schools where
free text books are furnished may
make charge for the use of these
books by students thus admitted. This
is also worth knowing.
1t is worth knowing that the teach
ing elementary agriculture domestic
science and manual training shall be
compulsory in the public schools OF
the state after July /, 1915.
1t is worth knowing that fine of not
less IS or more than $50 for each Of
Tense is provided for neglect to send
children between and Is years of age
TO school for al least twenty four
weeks n each school year and that
only those living more than two miles
penalties. II is also w5rih knowing
that this school, whether public. pri-
vate or parochial, must teach the com
mon school branches of reading, writ
ing, spelling arithmetic, grammar,
physiology ana United States history"
in order 10 come within the provisions
guardians of the penalties for non
compliance.
II is also Of value TO know that the
school principals and the school boards
shall forbid the use Of tobacco in an.
form by any student OF the school un
der their charge and tina, those VINO
do not conform to the rules may be
suspended or expelled. This is worth
knowing and the action of school
boards Will be watched with interest
in this regard II Is q rule that should
be put in force and rigidly maintained.
No youth yet in high school can use
tobacco except 70 his own detriment
and that Of the schools.
Those are some of the changes made
by the last legislature. They are the
laws of the state. They cover every
district in the state. Are you going
to enforce them in your district?
