Not Boosting.

We would rather boost than
boast, any time. We don't claim
to be the whole works in the bank
ing business.
All that we claim is that our
stock holders and directors are plain
business men Just like the rest of
yon, men who realize their response
bilities and expect that every custo-
mer shall be given square deal.
Further, we know that our bank IS
reliable, has abundant capital and
surplus, and has an enyiable repu-
tati9n for fair dealing. If that's
boasting than we have boosted,
that's all, but its all true.

COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT.

Every county in the state that has not yet adopted county superintendent cy for it's schools will vote at the annu- al school election this year on the question of county supervision of schools, accoding to information given out recently by the Department of Education. According to the provis- ions of the county superintendency law, the electors at annual school election in all counties of the state that have not adopted superintendency, may vote upon this question, and if a majority of the votes cast at the school election in any county on the question of county supervision be favorable to it's adoption then under the provisions of the law that county has legally adopted county supervision for it's schools.
 When any county adopts county su- perintendency by vote of electors at the school election, the county superin- tendent, who takes the place of county examiner is nominated and elected at the same time and in the same manner that any other county officer is elected.
 Supervisor of Rural Schools J. l.. Bond of the Department of Education, who has been actively cooperating in number of county superintendency campaigns throughout the state, is strongly urging the adoption of county supervision to the end that the same efficient supervision and careful direc- tion now being given the town and city schools of the state.
 The ballots to be used in holding the school election this year will soon be sent out with the regular election SUD-

THE DELAYED TAX PAYER.

The refusal of the officials to extend the tax paying limit this year put a good many, who had not paid, on the anxious seat last week and quite few eleventh-hour fellows have perhaps won the penalty by delaying.
 Why people are prone to wait until the last minute to perform the tax pay ing duty is question far beyond economic solution.
 Numerous people about Green Forest, who could without material incon- venience, have paid the collector when he was here, or could have ascertained their dues and remitted by mail in due time, caused themselves the loss of time, worry and quite little expense by taking trip to Berryville and join ing in the rush that was neither pleas ant nor profitable to anybody concerned. It would have really been economy for some of them had they waited until the penalty was added and then employed SOHlC COIlIuOH-SeuSS ludNleE O4 SelCle- ment.
 Taxes are little less certain than death and the only sensible thing for anybody to do is to prepare to meet them promptly and not increase the burden by neglect. If you have been in the babit of putting off the payment of your taxes to the last minute, you can make a resolution that will be a source of profit if you will determine to be prompt in meeting the collector hereafter.
The Green Forest tribune., 1913-04-18
A GROSS INJUSTICE.

Of all the faults that can be found to our present system of taxation, and they are many, the most grossly un- just feature is that which requires the payment of taxes on mortgaged prop erty the same as if it was clear.
 For instance, a party has piece of property worth 5000 on which there is a mortgage for $500 The actual value of the equity the mortgager has in this property is $500, yet if the assessment is made according to law, the taxes are based upon valuation of 5000, while the holder of the mortgage is required to have same assessed and he pays full tribute for it's value.
 There is no other way out of it. The man, who is struggling with debt, is unjustly dealt with, for he is required to pay taxes on that which he does not own.
 Such instances are by no means rare Every man who has mortgaged in debtness is more or less affected by it and many thousands of dollars of reve- nue is raised on this principle every year in Carroll county.
 Why some representative of the "dear people" has not gotten busy and secured an amendment that will correct this injustice is little less than a mystery.

plies by the Department of Education. These ballots have the question Of county supervision printed on them as the law requires.
 Fifteen counties of the state have already adopted county superintend- ency and it is believed that the school election this year many new counties will be added to the superintendency column. This is considered to be one of the most pressing needs in the school work of the state at the present time.

FIX up. The most humble cottage in Green Forest can be made neat and at- tractive. A common board fence, without plane or paint, can be made neat. Don't tie up your gate with a fence post. You can get fastner for ten cents or make one yourself in thirty minutes without cent of cost. It takes no money to burn up the rubbish, fix up broken fences and make your home look homelike. The busy and in- dustrous find time to fix up their fences, but often the men who make little or no garden and let the yard re- semble a last years birds nest are those who have the most leisure time on their hands.

MAKE the farm more beautiful by sowing your yard with grass seed and keeping a pretty lawn. If you will make the farm home just as beautiful as the town or city home, the girls and boys will like farm life better. Then why not the farmer live just as up-to- date as the man in town? He is much more able to do so than the average town man. Try it!
