"CHARMED LIFE"
DID NOT SAVE HIM

He was young and eager to fight
for the cause Of Liberty, therefore
he did not wait for the United
States to get into the war.
In the fall of 1914 he left his
home in New England and joined
the Canadian troops. He went over
seas and saw hard fighting in the
trenches. His regiment won distinc-
ton in several of the big encount-
ers early in the war, but its ranks
were woefully thin1ed.
Somehow the young American
seemed to have charmed life.
Though shells exploded near him
and his companions dropped OF an
der the rain Of German fire, he was
never seriously injured, His brav-
e1y and daring won the admiration
Of his comrades, and today he wears
as little button on his breast, the re-
ward Of an act Of heroism perform
ed when he carried q dying comrade
back to safety under a furious bonn
bardment.
a few days ago this young man
came back to his New England vii
lage. Though the German bombs
and shrapnel passed him by, ne was
pale, stopped, and had a hacking
cough. His friends scarcely recog-
nized in him the brawny young fel-
low who had left them three years
ago. He had fallen victim to tuber-
culosis contracted in the trenches.
The French lost thousands of SOL
diers in this way before they fully
realized how this scourge flourished
on the hardships of trench-life.
The young Ameri cans charmed

improvements is fair and equitable
and is in exchange for items which
already saved many times their cost
to the citizens. The saving to the
community each year in insurance
alone amounts to more than the ad-
ditional tax which will wipe out the
deficit in one year. No debate is
being heard against the city tax for
the people know that they have got
ten more than their moneys worth
But there is a justified groan from
tho public when the levy is dug
UP because the people Of this section
Of the levy district know that they
are receiving nothing in return
This matter may not be so IRENE
diable as it seems. At least, there is
growing hope in the minds of some
that & way is being now developed to
relieve this community of that tax
burden.
The Morgan City daily review. (Morgan City, La.) 1916-1920, 1917-12-07

All Of the increase in city taxes
will be put into Morgan City use.
None of it goes for any other pur-
pose. The full valuation assessment
decided upon by the City Council at
their December session has been
for the general fund and which the
citizens are daily being benefited by.
The general fund of the Morgan
City has been carrying the excess
burden Of about $4,000 and inter
est which was needed to complete
the waterworks and sewerage sys-
tenn over and above the amount of
the bonds issued. The general fund
has been forced to borrow money to
make payments of $1100 and inter-
est on the Paving Certificates is
sued. The same fund has paid out
of its limited means $3.50 and in
terest on Fire Engine Certificates
1t has liquidated S22SO and interest
on the splendid Fire Alarm System
which the citizens enjoy. 1t has
paid $3.50 and interest on the Hose
Wagon in constant use. These pay
ments and interest amount to ap-
proximately $4,000 and because of
the burden they have imposed the
city has been forced to become de-
linquent on current expenses, includ-
ing about $4,000 for city street
lights and about $4,000 for other
necessary items.
It seems that the announcement
recently made by the City Council
that city taxes for the year 1917
would be assessed on a full proper
ty valuation has created the i'm
preston in some instances that the
taxes would be doubled. In 1916
city property owners paid the city
$500 on every $1,000 valuation.
This amount included the water
works and sewerage bond tax. Un-
der the recent act of the city coun-
Gil, property tax payers will pay the
city $11.75 for one year instead of
$500. In 1915, the city taxes
amounting to IA mills were assessed
on one-half of the property valua-
ton. This year city property taxes
will be II "a mills on the full valu-
alton. The reason the millage is less
this year than last is because of the
automatic reduction which the full
assessment works on the Water
works Bond tax.
The increase in city taxes is not
PARALLEL in the parish and state tax
es. The state tax is really l mill
less than last year and the parish tax
the same. The recent par
ish school tax will not be collected
this year. Neither do property tax
payers in this school district have to
begin the payment of the school tax
voted last spring. These additional
taxes will probably be assessed and
collected next year, but it is believed
that the city tax next year will be
again on the old basis.
Morgan City is paying 10 mill
levy tax to the levy district each
year and the burden Of this appar-
ent "taxation without representa-
tion' or value received is 'the little
old man of the sea" which the citi-
zens of the city are carrying. The
payment of the added tax on city

Work is to be commenced at once on
a splendid water system for Summit,
by the aid of which this place will
have one of the best culinary water
supplies in the state. 1t will consist
of cement gravity line from the
spring in the canyon to the supply
tank, a distance of three-tuarters of
a mile. From this point pressure pipe
will be used to town. 1t is expected
that the system will be completed this
year.
From present indications and re-
ports the population of our little town
will be considerably decreased again
this winter by the removal of families
having children of high school age.

Mansfield to Hold a Fair.

Representatives of the people of the town of Mansfield have decided to hold a fair this season. A committee was appointed to draw up a constitution and bylaws and their report will be heard at the next meeting, which is to be held in Horticultural hall Storrs. Wednesday evening, May 30. All present at that meeting will have the chance of becoming charter members The stand of the Mansfield people is in keeping with the spirit of the times
 as the fair will do much to increase interest in agriculture and the amount of the products and will also show what Mansfield is capable of producing. Two slogans have been adopted: "A Mansfield Fair for Mansfield Folks, ,' and 'FAIansfeld, Always Progressive"
