TO TAX UNTITLED LAND

Charles Hiram Randall of Los An

session of congress-. in an effort to in
duce the nation to tax untitled rural
and undeveloped urban land this pol

one calculated to open a natural
source of revenue, and also force the
production of food as a mode Of Sc
curing exemption from assessment.
Mr.. Randall has back of him in this
move persons and organizations
throughout the country that have long
believed in notifications of the taxa
ton policy of the nation as a mode OF
meeting the acknowledgment inequi-

caused by values that are socially Gre

PARENT-TEACHER MEETING

The regular monthly meeting of the
Parent-Teacher Association was held
Friday afternoon, December 7th, in
the junior high school building.
After a splendid vocal number by the
male quartette of the high school, Mrs.
Hoy announced hat the topic Of the
afternoon for consideration was The
Curfew Ordinance.
Mr.. Trygstad, city attorney, was
present and read the ordinance. He
laid special stress upon the penalty
section which says, Amy minor violat-
ing any provision of the foregoing
section, may be arrested by any Off
Ger or private citizen having knowl-
edge thereof without process and de-
livered into the custody Of the par
ent, guardian or employer of such
minor"
A spirited discussion followed the
stad was asked many questions. 1t
developed that the private citizens"
of Bookings either from ignorance Of
the specifications of the ordinance or
from general carelessness, have failed
in the past to do their duty by the
community in failing to arrest minors.
under seventeen, when they are seen
on the streets after nine O'Clock.
A motion was carried that the Par
ent-Teacher Association heartily en-
uorse the Curfew Ordinance and call
attention to our citizens that it Is
their duty to arrest minors whenever
they know that such are on the
streets after the curfew bell has
rung. 1t would be a simple matter to
telephone the police and ask for as
sistance. Only by each and everyone
performing his full duty, can the
youth of our city be protected.
Supt. Hargis reported that the
school board We're doing their utmost
to secure a nurse for the present
school year but as yet, they had not
been successful in their efforts.
Mrs. Lillian Smith presented the
need OF a skating rink for the chi
dreu and young people of the city.
After some discussion, a committee
was appointed to investigate the pos
sibility of securing The Tabernacle
some time later which might be used
as a rink.

THE SALE

A couple of weeks ago G. II. CraW-
ford held a dispersion sale of the pure
bred stock that he has been raising at
his farm seven miles southeast of tn"
city. In all t%hirty-fve lots of stock
were sold and they ranged in price
so that the average was $171.5O. The
best COW sold for $4,000 and the top
bull for 1925. All of the Scotch dairy
strain of Shorthorns went outside of
the county and most Of them out of
the state. Three of the cowS that cost
Mr.. Crawford 1876 two years ago last
spring have returned him in calves
and sale price $4,000, which proves
that pedigreed stock certainly pays.
Mr.. Crawford has given up the farm
in this county and has moved to near

ny F. Clement, OF Washington, d. c.,
superintendent Of tho town and coun-

Miss Clement states that a visiting

in a mining town in the west, when
suddenly she was informed that her
services would 40 longer be required.

SUPREME IN INTEREST

The capture of Jerusalem by the
British forces marks the end, with
two brief interludes, of more than
1000 years possession of the seat of
the Christian religion by the Moham-
medans. For 673 years the Holy City
has been in undisputed ownership of
the Turks, the last Christian ruler Of
Jerusalem being the German emperor,
Frederick III, whose short-lived dom
ination lasted from 1920 to 1914.
In sentimental and romantic aspect,
the capture of Jerusalem far exceeds
yer the fall of fable-crowned Bag
dad. The modern city of Jerusalem
contains about 10000 inhabitants and
is the home of pestilence, filth and
fevers but in historic interest it nat
urally surpasses, to the Christian
world, all other places in the world.
Since the days when David wrestod
it from the hands of the Jebusites to
make it the capital of the Jewish race,
Jerusalem has been the priced prey
of half the races of the world. 1t has
passed successfully into the hands Of
the Assyrians, ~Babylonians, Greeks,
Romans, Persians, Arabs, Turks, the
motley crowds Of the Crusaders. fin
ally to fall before the descendants Of
that Richard the Lion Hearted, who
strove in vain for its possession more
than 700 years ago.

fallen off so that he was doing prac-
tically nothing in this line. Another
owned an unsanitary barn next to the
school house. The barn had been
torn down after the nurse explained
the danger to the community. The
third owned property which was not
connected with the sewage system,
but which the law required should be
connected. The nurse was striving,

a majority of the town board had yot-
ed to withdraw financial support.
She was mystifed by this action,
until she came to inquire who had
cast their votes against her and what
their reasons were for ding so.
One Of the majority volers was an

tat since the arrival Of the nurse

helps to put the undertaken out of
business. Red Cross Seals save ba-
bies' lives through the support of tn.

Dear Kate:
Do you remember Rosie OGrady who
got married about three years ago? Well,
she is only twenty years old now. She has
got kid and supporting it herself That
fellow she married was coke fend and
she fired him, and she is doing real well.
Her brother is a driver at McCreey's. and
between them they hire a little fiat down
on Twentieth street and her mother takes
care Of the baby and they are real happy.
/ went down to see her the other night A
lot of women live there who scrub offices
or go out washing or do any kind of day
work they can get Most every one Of them
supports a drunken husband one woman
next door to Rosie has both her husband
and her brother on her hands and her
brother has been full for three months and
that poor woman goes out washing to give
these good-for-nothing men their food.' I'd
let their stomaChs grow to their backbone
before I'd feed them. You see an awful
lot of drink down around Eighth avenue,
and il seems like II is done by the men
that most need the money Yet l suppose
when they are out on the wagon all day
in the cold and the wet, that a saloon looks
awful nice ana warm and the free lunch
tastes mighty good They can't AFFORD to
go to the restaurants, even cheap ones, so
they go TO the saloon and drink that rotten
whisky that drives them crazy. That Is
one thing l never saw no fun in, and
must say for you, Kate, that with all the
rotten crowd you run with you didn't take
to booze nor dope If you hadn't just nat
urally not known the difference between
what belonged to you and what belonged
to the other man. you might have been a
pretty respectable member of society.
tell you l am watching Billy mighty close
TO see that ne don't have too small fingers
By the looks of him now, the way he Is
growing, his hands are going TO be like
hams, and If he ever got them in another
mans pocket. he would never get them out
again
l can't send you no money I tell you
| am absolutely fiat strapped. I hooked
my two rings and even sold my dancing
slippers.
/ amt paid Mrs. Smith for Billys board
in most a month, and know they need the
money Cheer up, old girl, you only have
a short time now l keep trying to think
what you can do when you come out, but l
don't seem to light on nothing you would
like. Anyway, you know am thinking OF
your Yours NAN.
