it would aid in bringing on the extra

the work before it adjourns.
There is absolutely nothing wrong
with business. The only trouble is that
some people seem pessimistic. If every

Rural Schools Unfit.

81 would like the County Health or
ficer TO see some of these schools in the
rural sections OF the county," said a
prominent county official recently. IF
he did not condemn them Immediately
on account of their unsanitary condition
and being unfit for the boys and girls to
study in, then | miss my guess"
This declaration came in the midst OF
an informal discussion among number
of officials, regarding the centralized
county school. first suggested at the
Boys High School Banquet at Braddock
Heights recently, and since discussed
with more or less intere.t IN various
parts Of the county.
The opinion of this official was that too
little attention and care was being paid
10 the education OF the children in the
rural county districts. He declared that
they were compelled to study in ram
shack buildings, with no modern con-
veniences, and that the conditions in and
about the buildings often were danger
ously unsanitary.
They were inade1uately heated in the
winter he said, and poorly ventilated.

And 10, the humble farmer guy.

For in great detection they confess
They haven't cars enough.

When harvest time begins,
With one accord they'll raise a roar
And build more money bins.

THE increase of the tax. rate, both
in State and county, should appeal to
the municipality of Frederick to not ad-
vance its present rate, and if possible,
without interfering with the progressive
spirit manifested, reduce it.. Our county
Tx rate is 81 10 on the 500; the
State tax 3 cents, and the city tax rate
for the year 1913 was $1.10, which will
make a total of S2.5l on the 500.
This increase is largely due to the State
roads, and public schools, and will, no
doubt, carry with it many hardships to
those who have invested heavily in real
estate. and are dependent on the rentals
therefrom to meet their requirements
The result will, as usual under such
conditions, be an advancement in rents,
which will necessarily fall on the labor
ing element, or those least able to pay.
Our city has made many improvements,
and also exercised great economy in the
management of its affairs, and we hope
that if the present rate cannot be re-
duced, it will certainly not be increased.
