That this Is not the last earth
quake Italy will have. by any means,
is DR.. Smiths belief.
"The people in certain parts of
Italy have been warned to move their
cities. This was the case with Mes
sina, where a few years ago an
earthquake and subsequent tidal
wave caused great loss of life and
property. Scientists are now able to
tell by seismograph records the loca-
tion and intensity of earthquakes In
distant parts of the world before the
telegraph wires bring the news, and
have also been able to predict where
the next disturbance was most likely
to occur. The next step will be to
predict when the earthquakes will
come and thus make possible a prep

tectonic lines" says DR.. Smith.
"It has recently been demonstrate
ed that there Is measurable rock
tide, caused by the same attractive
forces that produce the ocean tides,
and the reason this tide is not de-
tected by the naked eye is that the
crust of the earth is incomparably
more rigid than the surface of the
ocean, and the accumulation of
stresses in the rocks finally results
in a giving way at some points, these
points naturally being the weak ones
In the crust of the earth. They are
along the borders of the ocean and
usually in the portions of the earth

Italy is situated in one of these

OBITUARY..

OnrAug 20. 1915 death visited the
home of Mr. and Mrs. V. b. Queen and
took their only child Thomas Edward.
His death was caused by poisoning. He
was sick only few hours and al
cry one until his precious little spirit
took flight to that great beyond.
He was one year and ten months
old. bright little fellow. He had n
bright smile for every one which made
him the favorite Of the neighborhood.
His last words to his heart broken pa
rents were "a kiss mother, kiss dad
dy." II is so sad to enter the home and
not see Tommy's smiling face and hear
his voice saying how do-you- do But
his earthly trials are over and he has
gone to dwell with the one who said
suffer the children to come unto me
and forbid them not, for of such is the
kingdom of heaven. We can not call
Tommy back for he is sleeping the
cold sleep of death, but we can live so
we can meet our precious jewel in that
beautiful land where no parting words
are spoken for we'll never say good
bye in heaven, but dwell forever with
Him who doeth all things well, The
bereayed family have our deepest sym
patty

Anchored safe where storms are

Soon to meet and part no more.

In those, towns where special collectors
are employed to collect the personal
tax, the percentage of taxes collected
by the regular collector Is also In

There is included an abstract Of

of increase of the assessment lists
over those of the previous~year, the
average values of dwelling houses;
of barns, sheds etc; of house and

Chapter 257 of-the public acts

poses of state and county taxes, be-
cause such taxes win hereafter be
