To the Boys and Girls Of Audubon County

Owing TO a great amount of sickness
in the rural schools, we have been
obliged to conduct the rural examina-
tions differently than planned. All
papers are not in yet, but we have sent
out to most of those who have some
studies to write over in May. As soon
as notices are ready, students will re-
ceive their reports.
''ATHENIAN OATH"
Many of the boys and girls learned
this Oath of Good Citizenship" but
tbs reports have come in from many of
the schools in such way that cannot
tell whether pupils We're present during
the week of Feb. or that they learned
the oath" We are dealing with
hundreds and it is necessary for us to
have the work uniform and systematic
in order to fill all reports. We have
decided that the best way is to have it
written on uniform size paper and then
sent to County Superintendent Office.
Teachers will be notified later when to
have this done Those who are out of
school now can write this in fall term
or sooner if they so desire. We shall
keep in the Office permanent Honor
Roll of Future Good Citizens" After
we are well organized we shall expect
this League OF Future Citizens to be
ready TO give suggestions on How
Can Make my School and Neighbor-
hood one of the Best in the County. "
In fact any suggestions for community
uplift will be appreciated. You will
hear more later"

A Tip From One Who Knows

sit me down this evening
A line or two TO write,
To tell you of harness man
Who is simply out of sight.
When it comes to making harness
This fellow can't be beat,
And if you will always trade with him
You will never get wet feet.
He can sew rig or mend a trace
Or fix up that old Collar,
He can also oil your harness up
And charge but dollar.
1t makes no difference what you want
Or how it put together,
He certainly can do the job
If it is made from leather.
So all together boost him up
He's a credit to your town,
So everybody do your part
Cause you can't keep him down.
A. NJ. Currier is the fellows name
almost forgot to tell.
But after reading these few lines
You would all know quite well.

F. 0. Niklason, the prince of horse
buyers, was busy man last week. On
Friday he bought span of mules weigh
ing 300 pounds for which he paid 5000
and team of horses weighing $500 for
which he paid $500 Both purchases
were made from Fred Nelson who re-
sides near Dedham. MIR. Nelson is well
known in this section of the country.
For many years he ivdd about seven
miles southwest of Audubon, but some
ten years ago he moved 10 Carroll
county. He has the reputation of rails
ing good stuff, and always gets the top
market price. Mr. Nelson showed good
judgement in selling these top-notchers
to Mr. Niklason for he is onto the ropes
and can get good price in return.

WHEN SNODGRAsS MUFFED AND BOSTON WON
THE CHAMPIONSHIP
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON.

championship, (which they had
struggled so long, appeared within
the very grasp of the New York
Giants. McGraw's crowd seemed to
have snatched victory from certain
defeat. Saved from four straight
losses at the hands of the Red Sox a
muffed fly had allowed them to tie
one game-they won another-by
luck. Boston, arrogant, confident, had
the series seemingly won beyond
doubt. Then little row, a little faint
heartedness in choice of pitchers, a
sudden break, panic, CONSERVATION
and rout came upon Boston.
The Giants, hope revived, fought
their way to even terms, and in the
deciding game, led. Mathewson,
pitching superbly, cunningly, with all
the skill of the greatest master the
game has known, had stopped the
Red Sox. In one moment he had
wavered and blundered and recruit
had evened up the score-and the
two teams; tied, struggled to the fin
ish of the final game of that series of
surprises, in October, 1912.
In the tenth the Giants had scored,
in spite of the desperate rally of Bos-
ten-and with Mathewson pitching
all Boston's hopes seem blghted.
The bitterness of ''it might have
been" had sunk into the hearts of the
twenty thousand Bostonians who
were seeing the cup snatched from
their lips.
Boston, desperate, came for the
last chance, the score to 1 against
them. In. the field the gray-clad war
riors from New York we're CULVER
ing with the tensity of the situation.
Clyde Engle was the first to face
Mathewson. I have seen Matty in
scores of games, but never before did
1 see the tense, drawn expression Of
fear come to him. He pitched and En-
gle. hit the ball far and high to left
center between Murray and Snod-
The day book. [volume] (Chicago, Ill.) 1911-1917, 1914-07-07

ordinary circumstances but the nerve
tension was too great. 1t was Snod-
grass ball.
He hesitated, looked despairingly
toward Murray, who screamed to him
to take it. SnOdgrass started again,
hesitated, looked toward Murray as
if seeking assistance, and, seeing that
he alone was responsible, made a final
effort to reach the ball. 1t struck his
hands, dropped, rolled few feet, and
before he could retrieve it the slow
footed Engle had reached second.
The crowd that had been silent,
suddenly turned into a bowling, hope
full mob, screaming, imploring, beg
ging as Hooper faced Mathewson.
Hooper drove a fierce line smash to
left center, and this time Snodgrass,
as if trying to redeem the blunder,
made a clever catch.
Mathewson was pitching carefully,
studiously. He refused to give Yerkes
good ball to hit and Yerkes refused
to hit at a bad one and drew a base,
bringing Speaker to bat
On the bench the Red Sox, who a
moment ago had been cursing
through gritted teeth, leaped to the
fray, screaming, bowling, mad with
the chance to win and save the day.
Iris Speaker, the greatest hitter of
the team, came to bat. He was no
longer the smiling, good-natured
Speaker, but a man who looked upon
every opponent as deadly foe, and
upon Mathewson, one of his best
friends, as his most-hated enemy. He
cursed Matty as he stepped to the
plate and Mathewson, a bit shaken
and qivering with anxiety, smiled and
dropped slow, twisting curve inside
the plate. Speaker swung. ~
The ball popped at an easy arc to-
ward first base, and the crowd groan-
ed again. The ball arched perhaps
fifty feet high, toward first base and !
| only a few feet outside the foul line.

mend that this change be made at the
expiration Of the term Of the present

I Personal Property.
"The total assessed value Of Per-
sonal Property In the City Of Wheel
ing is, in round numbers, $4,000, 900,
which is supposed to include all money
mortgages, bonds, accounts receivable,
stocks of merchandise, chattels and
household furniture. The City derives
a revenue from this source about
.7<000, at the tax rate of 35c.
"Your committee is strongly of the
opinion that the amount of Personal
Property returned for taxation is
| grossly disproportionate to the real
values and amounts which could be
listed and which are escaping the pay
ment of their just share of the taxes.
I'VE recognize that the committee
has no accurate means for arriving at
even approximate figures, but at the
same time a glance at the Assessors
books will show such apparent dis
crepancies between the known worth
OF individuals and corporations, as
coVlpared to their tax returns, that If
only a moderate proportion OF. the un-
listed Personal Property we're taxed,
the question Of the finances of the City
could be in fair way to be solved.

proper City officials appear before the
Board of Equalization and Appeals
with a request that the matter be
thoroughly Investigated, and that the
assistance of the Assessor, Prosecut
ing Attorney and State Tax Commits.

I'VE might add that the amount OF
money alone on deposit in the Wheel
ing banks is more than equal to the
whloe amount Of Personal property
assessed.
Real Estate
"An investigation of the assessed
values Of high class business property
as compared with the real known
values, shows "a great disproportion

recommendation in regard to Real
Estate that we DO In regard to Per

Water Rates
"The net annual revenue to the
City from its water plant Is about

Conclusion
I'm reckoning the sources of revenue
we respectfully call your attention to
the following:
First: In considering the personal
and realty increase, we have only cal
culated what should be the natural in
crease judging by past years, not
what should or could be assessed. We
consider this fertile field to explore.
Second: If the advance in water
rates is thought too heavy, it can be
easily seen that even a fair advance

Loss Of Revenue.
"The loss of revenue from the liquor
business is calculated as follows:

Cigarettes, Slot Ma, ETC.. $500
Water rents from Saloons
and BreWeries ......... 11,657.9O

From the above amount should be
deducted the water rents to be paid
by the occupants of the building vacat-

There is oaccurate way of arriving
at the exact sum, but we should say
at least one-half of the sum of SILL
