women were natter, they would keep their

There is much truth in this argument
Once upon time woman might be certain
that she had a life title TO man when she
married him. hut nowadays the wife must
tight for love. Divorce is the Acknowledgment

interest on outstanding obligations absorbs so

to-day. and Council should look TO the future
Long-term bond issues in the past have
made swift reform impossible but something
can be done. Great savings in interest
charges can be effected by substituting the
serial plan for the sinking fund plan Serial
bonds are not only much preferred by in

advantage OF the city. BY this device fixed
proportion Of the whole issue is retired every

for issuing paving bonds. but for all bonds
