I2nd school district meetings, village
and county boards, common councils of
cities and the state legislature can
levy taxes.
The sole object of the assessment is
o measure the proportion of the tax
'7rd9n which each property owner
7hall bear. The assessor is the Judge
If the relative amount of tax that
Hall be borne by each taxpayer with
= his assessment district, and the
w has directed him to use as the
ruide to his Judgment the fnll value
t the property of each. The lam
%uage of the law is just and plain, in
fact no other method can or will reach
equity. Where an assessment dis
trict has been having a low rate of as
sessment it is almost invariably the
0asn that some taxpayers are assess
ID higher relatively to true value than
2tE,5rs. but thai ,slcn an assessor
~aises the assessment of such district
20 full value those unjust differences
will disappear.
7 To illustrate the fact that raising
the as~essnoent of a town will not
raise the taxes we will assume the to-
tal tax cbargeable to town for all
purposes is $4,000. This sum must
he raised regardless of the amount of
the assessment. If the assessment is
high the rate per cent will be low and
if the assessment is low the rate will
he high, bat the $4,000 must be raised
n any event. Increased assessment
therefore has no relation to high tax
IS. This elementary truth is general
(y accepted as to local taxes, but there
is an underlined fear among some that
The local. district may suffer in the ap-
Dortionment of the state and county
taxes by a high assessment.
There would be force in this OBJ
lection if such taxes were apportion-
ed according to local assessment, but
equalizations are never made on this
basis, on the contrary county boards
always reduce the valuation of all the
districts to some common standard in
apportioning state and county taxes,
and there is no need therefore to fear
that raising assessments will raise
taxes.

zIGzAG To HEALTH

If there is a person anywhere who
! is more exasperating to a conscien-
tious physician than the one who de-
! Gberately neglects and carelessly un-
dormines his health it is the person
who coddles himself too much. We
receive letters from many people who
belong to the latter class.
Such one asked. me recently if
he should sleep with one pillow or with
two-if he should turn from one side
TO the other every half hour SO as not
to put tco much pressure on his vital
organs. This is an instance in which
carefulness has gone to seed. In such
a case, one is disposed to prescribe the
attention Of "real rough prize fight
er" instead of physician or nurse.
Then there are the two extreme
types of parents. One mothere lets
her children run wild; go to movies
when they like, during epidemics Of
contagious diseases and when they
should be in bed; buy any kind Of
candy any time they get the price
and do anything else they wish to do.
The other type of mother is as fus-
sy as hen with flock of duckklines. |
She guards her children until they are |
as bloodless and spineless as a iellv |
fish. She is so afraid of accidents that
she will not let the children cross the |
street alone; SO afraid of disease that |
she would keep them done up in an |
tiseptics all the time. There is little
to choose between the two types. They
are both wrong.
What an aggregation of pendulum
swingers we human beings are! do
not suppose we have any more right
to expect people to display "horse
sense" in respect to health and dis
ease than they do in other relation
ships. But we can keep on wishing
they would. And if we wish hard G.
1ough perhaps they will.

EASTER DINNER

The Witter Hotel management lost
none of their already we'll establishc1
reputation fer serving "par excellent"
5anquets and holiday dinners, in the
me given by them Easter Sunday ev=
ming at $50 o'clock.
The always attractive dining room
was made doubly so, on this occa-
sion by the addition of potted plants
ferns, flowers, etc, and festooned with
smllax, colored jars and other artistic
decorations.
One hundred guests were served
with all the delieacies of the season.
n Mrs. D. J. Gerow's most charming
ervice, assisted by her efficient corps
IF walters. Those who partook of
his dinner say that it could not have
been better in its variety of viands and
efficient service. Grand Rapids is tru-
Y proud of the Witter Hotel as being
an inviting place to stop at, while in
our city.
Whenever they announce a banquet
hey never lack patronage. The ca,
1acity of their beautiful dinning room
is always taxed.

denies PAPERS
To Stacker

At the special session of Circuit
Court Saturday, April 10Th, Judge B.
3. Park, denied citizenship papers to
Eric Anderson.
Anderson was within the age limits
of the selective service act, but did
not want to aid in the country's de-
tense. The court ruled that a man
who wasn't willing to fight for the
country wasn't entitled to a voice in
it's affairs, therefore he denied his
application
Nineteen other applications were
1rantad and a number continued.
Judge Park asked the men concern
ing their knowledge of our form of
government and as to whether or not
hey had purchased bonds, contribut-
ID to the Red Cross and other war
activities Most of the men who were
admitted said they had no aversion
to serving in defense of the country
in time of war, and many of them
aid they had bought bonds to the
limit of their ability
Many of the cases continued were
those of men in the army, or absent
for other causes. One mans case
was continued because he had only
bought one bond for $50. 1t was
ahown that he was worth $4,000 over
ii indebtedness. f'There is another
bond issue coming, let US see what
YOU do this time" the court told him,
Those admitted to citizenship were:
Martin Luvgren, Sweden; Emil
Kuhn, Russia; A S. Dunstan, Eng
land; Thomas Smith, Holland; Kate
qoeneveld, Holland; Jan Schalten,

The following letter is one received

son IN the Canadian Army while in

lease of your son, No. 21846O8. Pri-

MONEY TALKS

1t is alright to talk asout doing this
and doing that fer the sake of benefit.
ing agriculture. But the farmer, ma.
furally, wants something more than g
sense of duty -well-done to compensate
i'm for his trouble.
Money talks" That is an ole
phrase. Never did it take on a more
practical application thsn in regard
20 the herd sire. Figures from real
sarmers have been given over and
over again which show conclusivelv
that purebred sire will pay on any
farm, no matter how small, where a
bull is kept at ALL
Has anyone ever seen really sue
'assful farmer with a scrub bull2 MOI
In fact, no one can be really success
full as long as he uses a scrub bull.
Get rid of him-he is a Stacker. a
5oarder, and loser, and every day he
stays in the herd means another day
before his owner can start on the road
TO success. A purebred bull is not ex-
pensive, is easy to obtain, and is the
tarting point to prosperity.
1t is philanthropy, yes, to keep q
bredfor-p production purebred bull in
stead of scrub. But the person
benefited is the man who keeps him.
The scrub bull is a disgrace to the
man who owns him.

NEW LAWS MEAN
LESS TUBERCULOSIS
IN WISCONSIN

Wisconsin's need for more aggres-
fleeted in the draft examinations and
in the Children's Year Campaign
which was one of the outgrowths of
the war, is recognized in four prac-
tical measures now before the state
legislature They are:
208 S., introduced by Senator Jen-
nings, amending the county sanator
ium law so that the duties of the trus-
tees will include the employment of a
director of occupalional therapy, eth
er whole or part time.
210 S., introduced by Senator Jen-
nings, authorizing county boards of
supervisors to establish county dag
nostic centers either as outpatient de-
as general county dispensaries and
health centers.
285 A., introduced by Assemblyman
Coe and drawn at the request of the
Women's Committee of the State
Council of Defense, the State Board of
Health, and other agencies interested
IN child welfare work, providing for
the employment of at least one county
public health nurse or health instruct
CT in every county of the state.
Provision in the state board of con
trcl budget, now before the joint fl
nance committee, for raising the state
aid for county sanatoria from S5 to
ST week per capita.
This program is almost ultra-con-
servative in the face of the startling
revelations of the draft and attendant
war conditions. In its conservatism
it is in keeping wit. he general pol
icy Of building Slow. and surely that
has been a distinctive feature of the
anti-tuberculosis campaign in Wis
ccnsin from the very first. It-has
been q part of this policy never to ask
for legislation until an awakened pub
lie sentiment recognized the need for
it and this fact has been greatly ap-
preciated by members of the legis-
lature. Their cordial support of
every measure looking toward better
control of the\tuberculosis problem
during the last decade has placed
Wisconsin in an enviable place of
leadership among the other states of
the union for while Wisconsin legis-
lation has been conservative to a de-
gree, it has also been progressive.
The same happy combination of the
conservative and the progressive
which has won the intelligent support
of past legislatures, marks the bills
now under consideration. Reasons
that appeal to the ad as we'll as tC
the heart demand chat new forces
shall be enlisted to make sanatoriun
treatment increasingly efficient.
The need for raising the state aiC
for county sanatoria requires little
argument l. IHCISdS0u living COSls
tells the whole story and the fact tha
there is no Indication of q materia
drop in prices for some time to com,
makes it necessary to legislate for tn,
coming biennium, at least, on the basi
of the existing maintenance costs
Favorable committee action on tn
bills now pending, the former recor
of the Wisconsin legislators and tn
known desire of a large number o
senators and assemblymen to promot
in every practical way possible tn
health interests of the state give ever
reason for confidence that the preser
session will enable the state to tax
another long step forward in its figf
against tuberculosis.
