The money collected by the To- cal school tax is not sent to some distant part of the State to be spent, possibly for the benefit of other people, but it is used in the district in which it is voted, and for the people who do the voting. In it's final analysis it should not be considered a tax at all,
 but a simple, convenient and eco nomical system for collecting a sum of money to be invested in
 the lives and happiness of the boys and girls of the community

Co. K Notes

Last night Pvt. Walls upon being aroused by an awful rack ct, ran outside and found two goats perched on top of his tent. These same goats have a habit of coming into our tents at night and making away with various articles of clothing, this morning there was one goat short, as we'll as one of Sergt. Valentines socks. Putting two and two to- gether we deduct that the goat ate the sock and the sock got the goats goat. Sergt. Valen- tine says he intends to get some Hell on Hair," then we won't be bothered with them any more.
 Here's hoping our new com mander won't retire from the service while we are here.
 This war may be alright but for the life of me. 1 can't see what we brought the guns for.
 Pvt. Boozman, our Guard house Lawyer, says they can't keep us here. Cant put a Non- Com. in the "Booby- Hatch" either)
 Won't some one please recue us from the awful clutches of these loan sharks?
 We notice quite few soldiers going around with their eye brows slipped down over their mouths. Glad to say none of Co. K wears germ catchers. y
 Corp. Williams, like Russell Rice of the End Arkansas Band, is minus his trousers and con- fined to his ''budoir" where he positively refuses to see any one. He has those goats to thank for this latest outrage. And we don't draw clothing until Friday, either.
 $25. % reward for the scoun- drel who put the cactus under Pvt. Barton's blanket. Barton now takes his meals standing up.
 Since the hike Tuesday, sever- al have patent leather shoes, Heather top with feet pattin' the ground.)

Go to big gate and St. Peter ask if been good Indian. say yes. He say, did you pay debts? 1 say yes. He say, did you pay editor for paper? 1 say yes. He say, where is receipt? no have it.

New Coins Being Sent Out.

The new silver coins, half dollars, quarters and dimes, which got into circulation last fall, are being sent out over the country and will soon be finding their way into the pocket of the average citizen. For awhile they will probably attract atten- tion equal to that given the buffalo nickel and the Lincoln penny in their days. For the first time in the nations history the legend, Tn God We Trust, v which has adorned the dollar and about which there was much debate a few years ago, will ap- pear on the face of the silver dime. It is stated that the coin age of the present designs will cease within year. Under the laws governing the coinage of the United States, designs and devices on any coins may, not be changed within p years after the adoption of the exist ing ones. The emblems now in
 
 use on the half dollar, quarter and dime were adopted in 1891.

The school tax is a very diff
 erent tax from any other that the people have to pay. Other taxes are imposed upon them by legislatures and other represent ative bodies to which authority
 has been delegated. The people have no direct voice in the mat ter and are helpless. but in the matter of local school taxes the case is quiet different. The To- cal school tax is assessed and collected only by the direct con- cent of the voters concern ed.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: A claims that King Arthur cf the
Round Table was justified in condemning to
death by fire Guenever, his Queen.
b claims that it was a monstrous act even
for that time, and that Sir Lauucelot did a
noble and righteous act by rescuing her al
the point of the sword and taking her TO his
castle Also, that 10 was quite normal in
Queen Guenever 20 love a man willing 10 risk
his life In her behalf more than a man willing
to see her die in the flames TO vindicate his
honor, even though he was her legal lord and
custodian Of her person.
also claims that Malory's "Morte OAR
thur" intends 10 convey the meaning that Sir
Launcelots relations with the Queen were not
illicit, and that he spoke the truth in telling
Arthur he returns Gueneyer without ever
being traitor 70 his person"
insists that this is a garbled version, writ
ten for children, and is not true 20 tradition.
B claims that Tennyson treated Guenever un.
justly in THE ldylls" in making her out g
loose woman. Personally, feel sure there
was nothing carna in the relations between
Sir Launcelot and the Queen at any time, and
that he was a much finer man than the King.

Abnormal Prejudice"
pr Of The Tribune

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: with due respect, your mention Of

date space

by the mobilization Of Russia, evidently in a
state Of Inconsistencies caused by extreme
prejudice, and bumped at once into the cor
clusion that the Kaiser began H." When
reminded that Germany was the fourth TO
move. then the second formula, "Well, he
might have stopped 1t; it is all his fault"
There YOU have the goat theory in one of its
latest developments.
And so it appears to me that only the
blindness that comes from abnormal pref
udice can make you consider as a draw the
game Of checkers that has been going on for
TWO years between Germany and England.
