OBITUARY SKETCH OF
MAUDE ELLENOR WYATT

The Free Press has received the fol
lowing obituary sketch of Miss Maude
Ellenor Wyatt, who died in Montana,
and mention of whose death was made
last week:
What proved to be the most severe
shock of the year to the Wisdom
community and school was the I'M
timely death of Miss Maude Ellenor
Wyatt, freshman in the Wisdom
high school and daughter of Mrs.
Laura Culley, former resident of
Whitebird, Idaho. She had recently ex-
perienced an attack of pneumonia,
but was considered beyond danger
when heart disease suddenly took her
on the morning of April 8.
Miss Wyatt was born in Whitebird,
Aug. IL, 1905. She lived there with
her paernts and attended school until
three years ago, when she removed
to Wisdom, Mont, with her mother.
Since her residence there, she advanc
ed rapidly in school and made multi
tude of very close friends who mourn
the loss The simple but beautiful flu

per capita cost of instruction about
$105, or $11.67 a month. Of this amount
the district is allowed by the state
law to collect a tuition charge Of 81 a
month from the outside districts from
which high school students attend.
The total to be collected for this pur-
pose this year will be about $1,000.
The number of high school students
from outside districts this year is
fifty, or fve-twelfths of the total en-
rollment. 1t is therefore reasonable
to say that five-twelfths of the total
expenses Of conducting the high school
should be chargeabe to the county
outside of Grangeville. This would
be a total of more than $4,000. Con
the fact that only $1,000 is
collected in buttons this leaves
burden of $500 on the Grangeville
school district.
1t is strongly hoped that when the
legislature next meets it will make
provision for the equitable distribu-
ton of thia expense. Grangeville,
on account of its location and stand
ing in the county cannot fail to
provide high school for the rest of
the county, but the law should be
so that those who are so
largely benefited by the existance
within their reach of a fully accre-
lifted high school might be allowed
TO pay their share of its cost.

neral services held at the Wisdom
church were attended by the whole
community. Appropriate music was
rendered and many beautiful floral
pieces adorned the casket. The oc-
casion seemed particularly sad, since
the deceased was so young, and only
a few days previous had been so full
of vigor and life, so the sudden end
seemed almost unbelievable. The be-
reaved relatives have the whole-heart-

ground that they are confscatory in

Tax Exemption Provided
Arthur ]. W. Hilly, chairman of the
Mayors Committee on Rent Profiteer-
ing, declared that property owners will
be inclined to view the measures with
favor when they learn of some of the
provisions designed to stimulate new
building. He said builders will be sur
prised to learn that the city is about
to pledge itself to donate in the form
of exemption from taxation 80 per cent
of the cost of new construction.
"One measure passed by the Legis-
lature, whi@h has received little atten-
tion, empowers municipalities to ex-
empt from taxation for ten years, all
new dwellings constructed within the
next eighteen months" said Mr. Hilly.
"The taxation on improvements
amounts to about 8 per cent annually.
In other words, if man puts up an
apartment building at cost of $780,
600, he will receive $4,000 by exemp-
tion from taxation, making the actual
cost only $4,000 This is the one

In contesting an action brought by
Beverley Towles, artist and illustrator
of this city, to prevent her from con-
tinuing separation suit begun in the
Supreme Court here last August, Mrs.
Marie Towles offered as evidence yes
terday in the Chancery Court in New
ark remarkable agreement signed by
! the couple last January. 1t was offered
as the basis of reconciliation where
by they had hoped to live together
again.
With the agreement, which Mrs.
Towles said her husband never had
lived up to, she submitted will. which
she said her husband executed last
Septe @ber.
The will bequeathed to Mrs. TowIes
the furniture in their apartment at
251 West Eighty-eighth Street with
the proviso that she permit Towles
to call upon her whenever he wished
and that on such occasions she would
not put him out.
Rules Laid Down for Husband
The agreement, which Mrs. Towles
said she had drawn up and compelled
her husband to sign before she would
consent to live with him again, is en-
titled, my Duty to My Wife," The
text follows:
my wife comes first before every
thing and everybody and must have
my salary every week. She is to be
boss of the house and must have every-
thing about the home, like treasurers
and comforts, and must have attentions
such as outings and theaters when we
can afford it. No swearing or insults

to bring an action for separation be-
fore Supreme Court Justice Burr ON

alleged that her artist husband had
made a painting of their servant girl,
who posed in tights. When she OBJ

told her it was "none of your damned
business"
Mrs. Towles also charged that Kcr
husband treated her cruelty and in
one of his temperamental moments
hurled water glass at her head. On
another occasion she said he pushed
her with such force that she fell and
sprained her ankle and there was hard
ly day passed that he did not kick
and punch her and call her names.
