at least, and two have ten acres of play-space.
The first school built in Gary, Ind, had two
acres of playground, the second had four, the
third eleven, and a lot recently purchased con-
tains twenty acres.
Whether in city or country, Mr.. Curtis con
siders ample school playground vital neces-
sity. "City children need a gOOdsized school
yard because there is no other place to play.
Country children need a large yard because at
home there is no one to play with, except in the
simplest games for little children" He points
out that larger school grounds are demanded
not only for the sake of organized play, which
has come to have recognized value in cduca,
ton, but also for school gardening, open-ar
classes, physical training, and other activities
that have made the schOol.yard NEARLY as i'm,
portant as the classroom in the conduct of a
modern school"

KILLED TRYING TO
SAVE CHICKENS
AARON BRAsWELL, 60, KEEPER
OF TOLL GATE NEAR ALEX
ANpRIA, is VICTIM.

ALEXANDRIA, Tenn, Jan. 12.-Aa-
ron Braswell, aged 60 years, keeper of
the toll gate just beyond Dowelltown
on the Alexandria-Smithv turn
pike, was struck by an auto driven by
Harry Monroe, aged 25, Saturday aft
ernoon.
The aged man gave his life to save
his chickens, and no blame attaches
to the driver of the car, who was ex-
honorated in a statement made by Mr..
Braswell to his wife Just before he ex-
pired.
At the time of the accident Mr..
Monroe, who drives the auto used in
conveying the mail, had stopped in
front of the toll gate to pay his toll.
He paid the money to Mrs. Braswell
and his attention was diverted from
the aged husband, who had stepped
in front Of the arc to brighten away
some chickens which were standing
on the pike. When the car started
Mr.. Braswell was struck and hurled
to the ground. His skull was frac-
tured and his hip dislocated.

Germany is wiping France off the

Dr.. Hills. THE reason is plain. The

ALL ASSESSMENTS

COUNTY ASSESSOR BEN COW.
LEY Is MAKING PREPARA.
TON FOR WORK.
REALTY WILL Be ASSESSED
More Than the Ordinary Diligence
Will Be Exercises to Discover All
Personal Property for Taxation.
An Increase Expected.

Beginning with today the regular
semi-annual assessment of property
will be made and all assessments will
be made as of this date. 1t is requlr.
ed by law that property shall be as
sessed bi-ennially, and it will devolve
upon County Assessor Ben Cowley and
his assistants to make a complete
new assessment this year. For the
year 1913 only personal property and
polls were required to be assessed.
This year all realty will again be
listed and valued by the assessor.
Last year the assessments remained
the same as they were in 1912, but
this year it will be the duty of the
assessor to take cognizance of all
depreciation and enhancements In
values since the last biennial assess
ment. The law now requires that the
realty be assessed at the market
value. Under this prvision there is
no question but that the property
valuation of the county should be
largely increased under the 1914
assessment
If the provisions of the law are
strictly complied with not only will
the county revenue be increased, but
the revenue Of the city of Columbia
will be much larger.
1t is anticipated that more than or.
binary diligence will be made to Sc
cure the information Of personally
subject to taxation. The opinion has
been expressed, that notwithstanding
the extraordinary efforts Of the as
SCISSOR during 1913 for the discovery
of this character Of property, that
much of 1t escaped the knowledge OF
the assessor, and thus escaped taxa
ton. There will always be some
property of this character that will
escape taxation, but 1t IL the purpose

ionable effort to avoid such an omis.

With two Of the members absent, G.

EPogue, of the tenth, the January term
of the quarterly court convened at
live minutes after ten o'clock this
morning.
The court room was filled with
spectators. many Of them being at
tracted there by the elections to be
held, and notwithstanding the rather
|tiresome detail of reading the turn
pike superintendent reports, they In
creased in numbers as the time for
the election approached.
In the verbal report Of ESQ. Church
/ on the building Of the Dawson bridge,
he stated 1t was his intention to get
the bridge constructed for 5000, but
on account Of being accused Of being
sa tight wad he acquiesced in the opin-
Ion of others that 1t would be economy
to spend 500 and use concrete In the
#construction. The court agreed with
the report and made the appropria-
ton.
nj The report of the revenue commits
\ Mon showed all the Offices together
nth the county records IN good con-
ltion, and specially commended
sdge Mcknight for the interest he
{: Is manifested and his diligent eff
Its in the management of the affairs
the county.
The reading of the report of the
fnpike superintendent was a long
Ia tiresome detail, and many OF the
stices employed themselves reading
lie various printed reports, while
s Jerk Thomas labored from Santa Fe
Culleoka and from Hampshire to
bring Hill on "bed rock" and grab
ia at ratings that were not there.

Ising of the first gate under the

alton list was interrupted when
Two warrants of $3.50 each were pre-
scented as the property of Jas. An

20, 1899, the other Oct. q, 1893.
These warrants had been presented to
Trustee Kannon, but on account of a
refusal to pay interest on these war
rants they were held and presented
recently to Trustee McFall, who re-
fused to pay them, preferTing to have
the court pass upon them. The court
ordered settlement in accordance with
the opinion of the county attorney.
The general appropriations carried
with it about $3.50 incident to the
small pox cases in the northern sec,
ton of the county during the past
three months. DIR. Voorhles stated
there was only one case now under
his care.
