board of eqalization of taxes, has sent
letter to William f. Morgan, president
OF the tax board of Burlington county,
which is of particular interest to persons
acquainted with the working out of the
new bank stock tax law, which was en-
acted at the 1914 session of the Legisla-
ture. The communication is in reply to
letter from the tax board asking as to
whether a national bank, which filed its
statement, could be permitted to make
certain bond deductions, which amount
it claimed could be subtracted from the
capital, surplus and undivided profits
taxable under the new act, thus escap-

Last week Detective Parker thought
he would get to work early on Monday
morning and have good portion of the
day to attend to some things that were
on his list. He left Mount Holly at hall
past five O'Clock in the morning and
went to Chesterfield, where he rounded
up two chicken thieves. While there he
heard of robbery that had been com
mitted and started to Philadelphia to
search for the stolen goods, as well al
some that were taken from house near
Burlington. On the way he was notified
of robbery near Moorestown, so ht
went into that affair and captured the
thieves. When he landed them i'm jai
he heard of the murder near Moores
town. He got busy on that case and il
was three O'Clock Tuesday morning
when he got to bed, and then the sigh
he had witnessed at the scene of the
murder stared at him SO persistently
that he could not sleep. OF course every
day La not SO strenuous as this.

The need Of revising Ncrmont's marriage
laws is called to public attention every few
days-whcnever, in fact, Brattleboro's
thrifty town clerk spices some non-rcsi-
dent couple. Although no statistics on
the subject are available it is safe to say
that a large percentage of these couples
are of the hasty marriage variety, else
they would stay at home and enter we'd
lock under laws which require five days
notice of intention. The MeddIer knows
that the ministers of Brattlcboro are
strongly in favor of having Vermont
marriage laws altered to conform to those
of adjoining states, and the fact that
ccrgymen in other parts of the state take
the same view of the matter Is evidenced
by the movement by those of the city Of
Burlington to have bill to this effect
introduced in the next Legislature.

The local Civic Improvement league has
lately taken up the question of ways and
means for putting a stop to the practice OF
using trees throughout the village for sign
boards. Like the matter mentioned IN
the foregoing paragraph this Is one in
which pride ought to be made an impor-
tant factor. TO begin with town and
village officers ought to be convinced that
trees are not the proper places for posting
notices, whether they he critters in regard
to coasting or warrants for public meet
ings. Then the various church organlza
tions should be taught the same lesson.
Further than this there IS little need OF
missionary work on this particular sub
lcct

The MeddLer
~ The coat fits you, put i on"

An active and public spirited citizen of
Brattleboro was heard to make the follow
ing remark last week: a man who
hasn't pride enough in his town to
keep his sidewalks free from snow isn't fit
to hold any public office, whether it's
lister or selectman or only fence viewer"
With this sentiment The Meddler is in
clincd to agree. The rain and fog of the
past few days have served to clean a good
many feet OF walk that should have been
previously cleaned by abutting property
owners. just what is the most effective
plan for getting after these recreant folks
is somewhat of a problem, but The Med
lated a pretty good scheme the other day
when she told a neighbor whose snow
shovel seemed to be out OF repair that if
he didn't clean his walk more promptly
after the next storm she would clean it
| herself with the aid of Il few other wo-
men in the neighborhood and then report
what she had done to The Rcfolmer fol
publication. 1t may be said right here
that The Reformer will be glad to print
accounts of such shovclng bees, and prob
ably there are d good many big city paper,
that would consider the circumstances
sufficient basis for feature story at the
expense of the shovece.

Why Some Federal Employees Prefer

Worth its weight in gold" is an old
saying. but government employees of
certain departments In the federal
building say time has not worn off any
Of its edges. When it comes to the
gold. however. especially gold coins. II
is a different story. That Is why GER
tain government employees spurn gold
and demand notes. They say that they
lose money every time they are paid in
gold because the coins become worn
through constant circulation and the
government will pay in redeeming
them only what they are worth in
weight.
In some of its departments the gov
eminent always pays in gold. The
heavy coins make bulky pocket pieces,
and there Is a rush to get them ex-
changed for notes. Recently local
banks have apparently been flooded
with gold currency, and when the gov
eminent employees 60 to bank and ask
for notes in exchange for the gold
coins they are informed that the bank
already has much gold on hand and ad-
vised to go to the subtreasury.
When the gold coins are rendered at
the subtreasury clerks there carefully
weigh them and then deduct for loss
Of gold which may be worn off the
edges and surface Of a coin by con.
slant circulation. In some instances
the deductions amount to as high as so
cents. Those who have been locked
are asking why the United States pays
its employees with money which it will
not redeem at face value.-Philadel-
