DELINQUENTs ON AUTO
TAX SUBJECT TO JOLT

A stack of cards two feet high ar
rived at the office of County Attor-
ney T. M. Rasmussen last week
Each of the cards represented one
Audubon county automobile owner
who hadn't paid his 1919 motor tax.
Now, il would take all the time OF
about three county attorneys and 10
stenographers to attend to the col
lection of all these accounts, and Mr..
Rasmussen is in a quandary. The
commission the county attorney is
allowed by law for these collections,
Mr.. Rasmussen says, Is just enough
to pay his postage. Nevertheless, he
plans to make as many as possible
come across"
II any automobile owner through
neglect has failed to pay his tax Mr..
Rasmussen would deem it favor If
he would call at the county attor-
ney's office. Next year things Will
be different, for the motor taxes Will
be payable directly at the court
house in each county.

NOT PERMITTED TO PARK
CARS IN FRONT OF THEATRE

Since the city officials have order
ed that the parking of cars shall be
on the side of the street instead OF
in the center. some people have
been wondering why they are not
allowed to put their cars in front of
the Crescent theatre. There Is a
state law that no one shall park a
car in from of amusement places and
within is feet of fire hydrant.
These rulings must be observed. In
case of a fire In theatre 1t would
be impossible to clear the house
without casualties with distractions
in front of the place. The ruling
is made to protect human life and
We believe IL this is thoroughly un-
derstood by the public there will be
no more complaints. when the city
marshal requests drivers to remove
their cars from in front of the Cres~
cent theatre.

GREAT COUNTY FAIR
WILL BE NEXT
PLANS MADE FOR GREATEST
EXHIBIT AUDUBON COUN-
TY HAS EVER HAD

The officers and directors of the
Audubon County Fair Association
are putting in some strenuous days
Just now getting everything in
shape for the greatest exhibition in
the history of the association.
A force of workmen have been
busy at the fair grounds during the
past week getting the buildings,
fences and race track in condition,
and from all indications the 1919
fair will be a hummer. The new
hog house that Is almost complet
ed makes good appearance and
will fill a long felt want.
The dates for the fair this year
are September o, 10, IL and ~.
The first day of course will be
given over to entries, but the sec
ond day promises to be one of the
big days. This is the day when
all OF the school children of the
county will be admitted free when
accompanied by their parents or
when they have the children's tick
cts which are sent out to the school
directors in the county.
There win be two big night pro-
grams, Wednesday and Thursday
nights, when tha greatest variety
OF free attactions will be seen as
well as the most elaborate display of
fireworks. The display this year
will be along patriotic lines and will
feature "The. Stopping of the Zee
brugge Harbor," "Yanks Whipping
Out Machine Gun Nests" and the
great Tanks" which slew the Huns
by the thousands. 1t Is also we'll
that it be understood that the MEM
bership tickets are good for the
night shows. M
The line of free attractions this
year is far superior to any we have
ever seen here. John Horning,
the secretary was exceptionally for
tunate in being able to get attrac-
tions that have been delightful
features at some of the big state
fairs, among the most attractive is
the Kealaki Hawaiians. The at
fractions alone will be we'll worth
the price Of admission. Other
prominent free attractions are the
Aerial Pats, Belts trained seals
and the Thearle-Duffield Co. These
acts are not only sensational but
amusing, instructive and brim full
of interest.
The fair this year will have a
good string of horses, so that a
strong race program will be as
sured. No good county fair this
year is going to be without horse
racing.
A special feature of the fair will
be the big peace jubilee, a fitting
celebration of our victory in this
world war. The association has de-
cided that any soldier or sailor in
uniform will be admitted free any
day Of the fair.
Reservations for stock exhibits
have already been made and if the
demand continues, all buildings will
be filled and in some departments
there will be more than twice
enough to fill them.
To make a county fair the sue
cess it so richly deserves 1T requires
the united support of the people of
the county. Why not all join
hands with the officers and direct
ors to see that the association gets
the help 1t needs. New buildings
have been erected and f. l.. Ander-
son, president of the association
would like to have other buildings
on the grounds to properly take
care of the breeders of pure bred
cattle and hogs, who are doing
such splendid work for the better
ment of the farmers of the COM
munity.

SCHOOL OPENS SEPTEMBER 8

Supt. Mclntire Informed us yes
terday that the Audubon public
schools would open Monday, Sep
TENDER Sth. All of the teachers
but the Science teacher have been
selected and the corps of teachers
necessary for this year numbers FL.
From all indications there will be a
big increase in the enrolment and
Mr.. McIntire Is anxious to get ey-
erything in shape so that the pupils
will be given the best advantage
possible. The war had its effect
on the schools last year but it Is
thought that under more favorable
conditions this year the attendance
in the high school will be greater
than it has in the past.
