SPRING ATS FOR MEN
DAVE SAYS

The spring styles in hats
for men are here and this is
the kind of weather for you

County Treasurer J. w. KimmeT is
experiencing more than his share of
tribulation on account of the new tax
law which became effective on June lst.
at which time all discounts on State
taxes paid before September LIST ceased
and after September 1st interest
charges are made upon the money due
the State. In renting taxes property
owners almost invariably overlook tins
provision of the law and as a conse-
quence the Treasurer is compelled to re-
tern the money to the remitter and ex-
plain the new provisions of the law
MIR. Kimmell has requested that this
paper make mention of the new law
and its provisions and request all tax
payers to bear in mind that taxes
(State) must be accompanied by in
terest after September LIST.
