the collection of the delinquent
personal taxes as the work
for the present year has not
been completed but excellent
progress is being made, especi-
ally with the $4 per capita road
tax. In connection with this |
might add that this law should
either be enforced or repealed
and put back on the old work
OF pay basis. The office Of the
collector has been handicapped
by not being able in some road
districts to get the road COM
missioners and oyerseers to CO.
operate with us and furnish us
with a list of the persons that
are subject to this tax, as the
law provides. Where this infor-
nation has been furnished we
have included this tax with
the other delinquent taxes and
collection has been made with
very little trouble. In districts
where we have been unable to
secure this information we
have been thrown on our re-
sources and have not done so
well.
The Sheriffs Office has the
following activities to report:
From January 1st to date we
have served two hundred and
forty warrants. There have
been placed i'm the Monroe

fifty-one prisoners. In the April

Good Bye Carnivals.

The high class CD elevat-
ing CD season of scrambled
entertainment that usually
comes with a travelling carni-
val or street fair company is
not one of this seasons amuSe-
ment expectancies in dear old
Brinkley." In fact not in
Monroe county will the carni-
walls hold forth any more judg-
ing from the marble heart Civ
en- them by the city of Brinkley
and Monroe county.
The City Council of Brinl<lcy
some months ago passed a
resolution putting a taboo on
such amuSements.
Representatives of q Carni-
val Company showed up a few
days since and when he could
not get Brinkley city license,
he smiled a smole and told it
out that he'd rent the Clark
Field, just outside the city
limits and play Brinkley aily-
how. He didn't do it though
for several reasons and now
he knows that Brinlley and
Monroe county a. out of that
class.
Judge T. T. Bateman re-
fused to allow the issuance OF
county license and thus Mon
lroe county and Brinkley is
spared. Mayor Greenlee had
given the carnival fair warning
not to come and I'm guessing
that their work here would
have been improbable even i
the county had licensed them
with Mayor Greenlee.
1t speaks we'll for the county
and reflects honor on the en-
tire people to have a County
Judges and our Mayor take 8
stand like this.

InterdenominationaI or Union
Meeting of Brinkley Chris
tians Called for Last SUM-
day Results in Joint Eff
forts for Community
Revival.

At the Baptist church on
last Sunday afternoon a union
meeting or conference was
called to which all of the
church people of Brinkley were
invited and quite a sprinkling
were in attendance.
Pastor l.. E. Mann of the NJ.
e. Church presided and stated
that the object of the meeting
was to ascertain if possible, the
wishes of the people on hold
ing a community revival ser
vice.
Pastor Roswell Davis of the
Baptist Church and Pastor Jas.
IDrummond of the Presbyterian
Church, together with Pastor
Mann, all spoke plainly of the
sore need of a revival of Chris
tianity in the community and
all spoke in favor of the Chris
tian forces of the city meeting
in a season of prayer and pc
religious life.
On motion, it was decided
that the midweek prayer meet
ings at the various churches
for the next few weeks should
be merged into single mid
week, community prayer SER
/ vice and that the meeting this
week should be held at the
Methodist Church, and there to
be decided where the next
meeting would be held.

Notwithstanding that the va

ing attention to the open sewer
which has been discharging its
filth in the open street on
North New York Ave. for the
past three years and asking an
immediate assurance of the
abatement of the nuisance.
The Mayor called on Adder
man Benz. Emmons to speak
for the Sewerage Commission

body.
Mr.. Emmons come clean"
with a confession that the
Sewerage Commissioners had
not done their duty; stated
that he had told the Health Of

and force action. He said the
Sewerage Commissioners had
bought lot of machinery to
be used in remedying the
trouble many months ago;
that this machinery should
have been installed, etc, but
that it seemed like he couldn't

Commission to act and hence
nothing had been done, etc.
1t was intimated by members
of the Council that the long
suffering people of the north
end contemplated some harsh
methods unless they were CIV

bought a lot of machinery and

trouble, some of which has

CHICAGO, Nov. 10.-Cheers,
tears, hugs and flags all had prom
inent part today in an enthusiastic
reception given by the colored popu-
lation of Chicago to the returning
heroes of the 365th regiment, made
up principally of Chicago and Wis
cOnsin boys, who won honors galore
in the Argonne woods and Vosges
fighting in France.
Hundreds of women and children
stood without complaint in snow and
slush for more than an hour at the
Park row suburban station, just
north of the main depot Of the Ill
inois Central, waiting to greet their
loved ones. A band tried to keep
them in good humor as it dispensed
jazz" tunes from its perch
on the second story of the depot,
just outside the main waiting room
Maj. Warner A. Ross, command
ant of the entire detachment, and
who had been with the regiment for
more than year at the head of the
second battalion, reported to Col.
William Nelson Pelouze, head Of
the reception committee, and within
2 few minutes the twenty-one Off
GERS and 896 men were in line Of
march and oil their way to the Col
iseum.
Sweethearts, mothers, fathers. sis
ters and friends swung on the arms
Of the colored heroes, even as they
marched through Michigan avenue
to East 10th street, and then to the
big reception quarters.
PandemOnium at Coliseum
Pandemonium broke when the SOL
ders marched into the Coliseum
through the annex. Thousands OF
women and children had filled the
gallery of the place, and there were
deafening cheers, waving Of flags
and then mad rush to hug and kiss
he returned soldier boys.
The reception to the n III, who
looked every one the picture of
health, was to include a dinner at
neon in the big building. The par
ade was to start at 2 p. M and was
to be reviewed by Maj. Glen Leon
ard Wood and staff from the front
Of the Art Institute. Music was
to be furnished by the Great Lakes
band.
As the soldiers marched through
the streets from the depot their col
ors and regimental colors we're miss
ing, the result, some of their officers
said, Of having been taken away
from them in France. There was
considerable feeling on the part Of
the officers of the regiment on ac-
count Of the absence Of the colors
and also because they were scgrs-
gated on shipboard coming home.
An investigation Of this is under
way.
The regiment was in the Marbache
sector on its way to Metz when the
armistice was signed
