TAX MONEY SLOW
 IN REACHING STATE.
Frank V. Evans Tells Why Pensions and Teachers Sal
 aries Are Not Prompt

Frank " Evans, in a letter to The Age failure to make prompt and full pay ment of Confederate pensions and school teachers salaries. He writes as fol- lows:
 To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Repeated complains by correspondents and others of the failure of the state to make prompt and full payment of claims of Confederate Veterans for pensions and school teachers salaries suggests the idea that ignorance prevails as to the source of revenue for these departments
 l am not an apologist for the state administration, and 1t needs none, but l do think that explanation is in order, and it is this: There is, tax levy of 10 cents per 100 for the old soldiers and of % cents per 100 for the public school teachers. It happens that on account of the depressed condition of the taxpayers there is great delinquincy in payment of taxes, is evidenced by the col umns of tax sales advertisements in the newspapers. This means that the state has not received the money due the veterans and the teachrs, and therefore. cannot pay. That the court judges and other state officials receive their war rants promptly tbut in many cases have to await payment the warrant is due to the fact that they are paid, not by special levy, but out of the general fund. It is plain. therefore. that the people and not the administration are responsi- ble for any delinquency that may occur.

amusinsly her efforts to appear n the role of golfer. As matter of fact, Miss Wilson has never played golf Neverthe- less, that fact served as no excuse for the camera man. He insisted that she appear on the green at Roebuck and suf- fer herself to be pictured with an uplift- ed stick to the front of an admiring gale lery and a smiling caddie.
 Last Saturday afternoon Miss Wilson appeared It was necessary that someone introduce her first of all, to the stick. And then someone presented the ball It was then explained that the latter. when placed on little mound, was to be NriNen to another green. When all was rcSdy. Miss Wilson raised her stick. took careful aim. and swung. She missed. However, the camera man was patient and she tried again. This time the stick connected soudiy with the ball. and away 1t flew-13 feet Nevertheless the pie ture was snapped. and the man nodded his satisfaction. To the next green the little party then decamped, and there the heroine was again instructed. This sec ond scene. the man declared, was per feet. Miss Wilson was fast acquiring the spirit of the sport. and the gal lery declared that within a very short time she would become an expert in the classic game of the Scots
 The life of the most beautiful girl in Alabama has undergone change. It is true tIdt sue lS SHOWeTeu With attep- ton, that letters come by scores, that the telephone brings her innumerable messages, that dinners and parties and dances are prepared in her honor But she has permitted none of these to de- prive her of the natural naivet and charming simplicity of her manner She reports for business at the hour she has always reported, She discharges her du- ties with the care and attention to de- tail that has always characterized her work. And in these facts. her friends say, may be found the reason why every body is glad the bachelors decided cor rectiy. why there is no jealousy on the part of the other beautiful girls who at one time were her rivals, why, in other words, there Is no serpent in this Eden.
 Miss Wilson is of course very beau tiful girl It Is unnecessary to say how beautiful. Shakespeare has told ths world that to gild refined gold. to paint the lily. or seek with taper light the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish were wasteful and ridiculous excess. Suffice 1t to say. therefore. that the most beau tfu of all Alabama girls. must of neces- sity bs paragon.

Everybody, as a matter that everybody is writing her their con- gratulatons. In this garden of Eden there is no serpent. And if the selection of the wise bachelors may for the moment be compared to the apple of another fable, there has been one golden bauble which when exhibited failed to arouse jealousy.
