Miller, a clerk:
You charged me 81 pole tax last
year Here you charge me 81 for
pole tax again this year. 1 have no
poles in my yard. 1 chopped down
the only pole I had in my yard last
year. My wife hangs the washing
on the roof to keep from having poles
in the yard"
Mr. Miller explained that he was
taxed on his poll. and said:

and there won't be a cent of tax on
them"
