Board of Appeals

The county Board of Appeals
met Monday and took up a num-
Der of cases. disposing of them
as the board thought just in the
premises. Objection to the re-
turns of the township assessors
was raised by several, inequali-
ties being the grounds for COM
plant by some who thot their
property had been, placed at a
higher figure than that of neigh
bors.
The action of the state board
of equalization was as phenome-
nal as it was delayed and coun-
ty clerks were upset generally
by the many variations this year
from the regular order of max
ing up tax books. But every
thing tends to higher taxes and
only good crops will pull US all
thru the next two or three years.
Pray and dig for if farmers cuss
and loaf, we are done for even if
the league of nations is abandon

The swimming pools near the
mouth o. the big ditch east Of
town VIII be filed to overflow
ing when the water gets right
as to depth and mud. Every:
body should learn to swim. We
failed to get a correct report OF
the near drownings at this place
last week, another prominent
business man Of Salisbury being
mixed up as mentioned but the
one named chad a seance with
the briny deep as it were, all by
himself. Alls well that ends
well. We made a narrower es.
cape than the near drowned
from sudden death.

The U. S. Senate is consider
ing the league of nations papers
and it is almost a certainty that
the article, number ten which
provides that the United States
shall assist England in backing
up France against all assaiIants,
will cause the rejection of the
whole scheme, elimination Of
that article being fatal to the
English French American posi-
ton.
