$1,2O0,0O0. But if that money had been voted and used 1t would have entailed the expense to complete the system which would not have been less than $3.500,000 and might have been more.
 There is another illustration in the High school bonds. For this purpose 1$400,000 was voted, and the expendi- tI1re of that money has made it neces- sary to vote $S0,00O more, or the building cannot be completed in a satisfactory way"
 estimate continued the speaker, <-that all the bonding that has been with the further expense that would have been entitled by granting the bonds, spells for Bridge port a debt of $12.00O,0OO, to carry which would, burden the annual tax rate with at least nine mills more
 And this nine mills would not in- cIude the amounts necessary to main tain and keep in use the things that would have been bought
 Now a nine mill tax rate when di- rected against a $5,00O two-farniIy home means an addition to the an nual cost of that home of $45 at the very least.
 t'The landlord can of course recover the $45 from his tenants by raising the rent, but cannot get the money back when he, lives in his own home.
 TT anticipate that the result of such debt burden would be another agita- ton to equalize the value of 111anu- featuring property so that the weight Of this enormous expense would be at least equally shared with homes and lands.''
 This gentleman will vote for no bonds except the issue of $8O,0O0 to complete the High school.

The volumes 1t contained had been
her fathers, and among them stood
q row Of tones taller than their fel-
lows-the bound numbers of county
newspaper, beginning before the war.
The back of each was stamped with
the year. She was deciphering these
faded imprints. Thirty years ago."
she whispered; "yes, here it is.'
She set down the candle and
dragged out one Of the huge leather
backs. Staggering under the weight,
she rested it's edge on the table and
began feverishly to turn the pages, her
eye on the date line. She stopped
presently with quick breath-she
had reached May 18th. The year was
that Of the duel: the date was the day
following the jessamine anniversary.
Fearfully her eye overran the columns.
Then suddenly she put her open
hand on the page as though to blot
out the words, every trace Of color
stricken from cheek and brow. But
the line seemed to glow up through
the very flesh: Died, May 14th; Ed.
ward Sassoon, in his twenty-sixth
year."
The book slipped to the floor with n
crash that echoed through the room.
1t was true, them 1t was Sassoon's
death that her mother mourned. The
man in whose arms she had stood
such little while ago by the old dial
Of Damory Court was the son of the
man who had killed him!
ooh, God" she whispered, Gust
when was SO happy! Oh, mother,
mother! You loved him, and your
heart broke when he died. 1t was
Valiant who broke it-Valiant-Val-
liant His father!"
She slipped down upon the bare
floor and crouched there shudderng
and agonized, her disheveled hair wet
with tears. Was her love to be but
the thing Of an hour, a single clasp
and then. forever, nothing? His ia
Tiers deed was not his fault Yet
how could she love man whose every
feature brought pang to that mother
she loved more than herself? So,
over and over, the wheel of her
thought turned in the same desolate
groove, and over and over the parox-
ysms Of grief and longing submerged
her.
Noieelessly as she had descended,
she crept again up the stair. AS she
passed her mothers door, she paused
a moment, and laying her arms out
across 1t, pressed her lips to the dark
grain of the wood.
