PUBLISHING DELINQUENT
TAX LISTS NECESSARY

1t is worthy of note that in most
counties a real attempt at economy is
being made in the publication of de-
linquent tax lists. Except In a few
counties, the general notices only are
printed in both languages, the list It,
self being printed in English only. last
year the list was sometimes printed in
both languages and hundreds OF dol
lars expended that might have been
saved TO the county and the taxpayers.
II is probable that still further saving
nigh be effected II county officials
would call for bids. This is permitted
under the law which fixes the maxi
mum amount to be charged for print
ing such lists.

SOMEWHERE IN FRANCE" TODAY

IL Is to be noted that France of all
European allied nations win this year
harvest enough wheat 10 feed Its pop
ulation and France was that nation
whose fields suffered most from the
ravages OF the Boche. IL shows the
supreme strength OF France In its
peasantry. who only ask that they may
work In France for France. Il is an
exhibition OF the same surprising re-
sili'-nce which found way to pay the
heavy German indemnity or 1870, that
the hated Huns might return in peace
10 their own land. France will save
the millions OF francs she has been
spending abroad for bread. French
men today are comparatively better
off economically than Americans, for
in France there is very little Of the
'abject poverty 80 common in American
cities.
What. France Is doing In an agri-
lcultcral way, AMI i:i,lustrlaily too. IL
The facts were available, 1t at once an

While the standard OF the French
peasant is perhaps not so high as that
of the American workman. his fierce
independence is just as great and he
enjoys contentment born Of modest
wants and the certainty Of surplus.
France h assured that its production
will be maximum; America knows Its

This you will realize once you
try Brunswick-that a super-tire
is possible only when the name
certifes that the maker is follow
ing the highest standards.
For tire making is chiefly mat
ter of standards and policies-cost
plus care. Any maker can build a
good tire if he cares to pay per-
fection's price.
All men know Brunswick stand
ards, for Brunswick products have
been famous for "a years.
Formulas, fabrics and standards
vary vastly in cost. Reinforce
ments, plies and thickness are a
matter Of expense. And these vari-
ations affect endurance. 1t rests
with the maker how far he wishes
to go-how much he can afford
to give.
For there are no secrets nor pat
ents to hold one back.

wONDROUs WONDERS

There are some wondrous wonders
OF which most OF us know;
Did you ever see fiddler
Who played without bowy
Another little puzzle
We all have tried to guess
Is how a movie hero
Gets out Of that awful mess.
All wonders are mere trifles
When once they pass away
But as for wondrous wonders,
Listen to my say
II seems a simple thing,
When once we've seen Il done
The villain at his dirty work
Drops the hero with his gun.
The shot goes true and ends II all
The lover is quite dead;
But when the next reel starts
We find him sick a-bed.
His sweetheart sits beside him,
Her hand on his bandaged head;
or course we all know now
He isn't really dead.
But 1t surely is a wonder.
II keeps me ON the go;
For the hero gets shot at least
Five times in every show.
My goodness gracious, can II be.
That man is not yet dead:
Can you tell me how he lives
with five bullets In his head?

The Whole Secret OF
A Better Tire
Sin,ply a Matter of the Makers Policies

To ascertain what each maker
offers one must analyze and test
some 200 tires-as our laboratories
have done.
Then it is a matter of combining
the best features and building ac-
cording to the highest standards.
Once you try a Brunswick you
will understand how we have built
model tires, regardless of factory
expense.
Yet Brunswick Tires cost you the
same as other ike-type tires. Our
saving is on selling cost, through
our nationwide organization.
We realize that you expect more
from Brunswicks, and we assure
you that you get it. ONE Bruns-
wick will tell you the story.
And then you'll want ALL
Brunswicks. No other tire, you'll
agree, gives SO much for your
money.

DRIVEPLANNED

New York, July pa nation-w wide
united evangelistic campaign of the
Protestant churches has been decided
upon for the coming year by the lead
ers of 18 Of the larger denominations,
the federal council of the Churches OF
Christ in America, announced here to-
day.
The directors of evangelism for the
Methodist bodies, the Baptists, Presby-
terians, Lutherans, CongregationaEsts,
Disciples, the two Reformed groups
and other bodies have met here and
decided upon the common program to

nations will accompany DR.. Dooden,
Of the Federal Council to Buffalo,
Cleveland, Cincinnati, Indianapolis,
Chicago, Detroit. ST. Louis. Louisville,
Pittsburg, Harrisburgh, Philadelphia,
Washington and Baltimore.
From September to December evan
gelistic committees are to be organ
lied and trained >in every local con-
gregation. Each church will present
the plan to it's whole church member
ship at a church rally to be held early
in the Fall. Parish surveys will be
undertaken to ascertain definitely the
persons who should be reached by
each church.
From January to Easter, every
Protestant pulpit is to be called on to
sound the evangelistic note. The APP
peal of the church to personal conse-
Grafton of life service is to be kept be-
fore the community in various ways.
Extension of the habit of personal
prayer and of the family altar will be
striven for, and the use of the Lenten
daily prayer calendar encouraged.
Pastors training classes will be held
for personal workers as we'll as con-
firmation classes or study group for
those who are to enter the churches

program is in the special services CEN

They are of concrete, reinforced with
STEEL and it is estimated will cost
approximately $4,000.
The bridge will be 33S feet in
length and will have a bascule lift

is navigable for distance above the
bridge.
For more than two years there has
been no bridge across the Blackwa-
ter river at this point. The bridge
that formerly SPAWNED the stream was
carried away during a storm and since
that time the only method of cross
ing has been by a flat boat ferry with
capacity of three average size au-
tomobiles.
Bids were opened by the state road
department for a bridge at this point
last April, but all bids received at
that time were considered too high
and were rejected. The department
then started work of constructing
foundation and piers with day labor
and placed a resident bridge engi-
neer in charge of the work. Bids were
then invited for the superstructure,

Asahi says that the To-A-Nippo (The

subject to suspensions because of the
publication of "anti-nationalistic ar
ticles," that is to say, anti-Japanese.
The Asahi says the governor-general
thinks that the general attitude Of the
newspaper toward the administration
is too "reprehensible' to be allowed to
continue. The journal adds that ethere
is a tendency among the Korean news
papers to give publicity to articles
which the authorities think fit to sup
