Unconscious Cerebration.

Apropos of the popular interest in
the ouiJa board, a correspondent says:
"An experiment In unconscious cere-
bration may be made In this way.
Take a Scent piece and to it attach a
fine silk thread with a bit Of sealing
wax. Then take an empty tumbler and
suspend the nickel in the center Of the
glass. holding the thread tightly be-
tween the thumb and finger and rest
ing the elbow on the funny bone
Then, without conscious volition Of the
muscles. think of its movement east,
west, north or south, or returning to
the center. You will find that the coin
will obey the thought. although you
give consciously no direction for the
movement."-From the Outlook.

Stewardship Representative

The Rev. G.. L. Powell of Morris
has been named county representa-
tive of Stewardship for the Inter-
church We Movement.
The apr nent is announced by
Chas. M. Way state director of the
department, whose headquarters are
at Minneapolis.
The enrolment of league of ten
million Christian stewards, ''acknow-
Lodging Gods ownership and mans
obligation to set apart definite por-
tion of his income for the extension
of the Kingdom upon" is one of the
aims of the movement, but money is
not the chief objective.
Life itself is trust from God,
and our spiritual and mental riches
should be placed at His disposal as
freely as our material wealth." Mr..
Powell points out.
He intends to revive the Biblical
custom of tithegiving, but says that
while a tenth of his income may be
as much as the average man can
spare for religious and humanitarian
purposes, the proportion should in
crease with the income.

everything to do with making them
just and equitable. If he does his
work carefully, with good Judgment,
and in strict accordance with the
laws of the state the result will be a
square deal for every taxpayer in his
district, and every taxpayer will be
compelled to carry his fair share of
the burden of taxation.
On the other hand if he violates
his oath of Office and does his work
in a careless and inefficient manner,
or attempts to assess porperty by any
standard except the one fixed by the
laws of the state, his assessment is
sure to abound in the greatest in
CAPABILITIES and result in the rankest
injustice.
He urged the assessors to perform
all of their duties in a helpful spirit

Late Hours Bad for Children

To thrive and be efficient little
children should have an abundance
of sleep-from 10 to IA hours of the

full period of rest is to be secured.
Miss Lucy Cordiner, extension spe-
cialist in foods and nutrition, Min
nesota college of agriculture, says
that tabulation of data gathered at
nutrition clinics held in the state re-
veals that the majority of children
suffering from malnutrition do not
obtain sufficient rest. Even for
children of and years of age"
she says, bedtime is between 9 and
10 o'clock. No child can recover
from malnutrition unless he be given
full opportunity to rest and be taught
the value of early, sleep. For this
he must have the cooperation of
parents, teachers and health work.

STRESSES IMPORTANCE
OF ASSESSORS WORK
Mr., Lord of Tax Commission Ad-
dresses Meeting at Court House
April Is.

The assessors of the county met
at the Court House April 18th, fol-
the purpose of receiving instructions
from Mr.. Lord of the State Tax Com
mission in regard to their duties III
assessing property this year.
Mr.. Lord explained to the asses
sors that the only way that the bur
den of taxation could be equ1taDly
distributed among the taxpayers OF
any community was by tull llst!hs
of all property subject to taxation
and it's assessment in accordance WIN
the laws of the state. He stated tna'
extensive Investigations by the tax
commission of this state and or otheI
states proved conclusively that any
deviation from the statutory rule
nearly always results in rank IN
Justice, and this injustice, the speak
or said. usually falls upon the poorer
+axnavers of the district. The only
wav that honest taxpayers can DE
nrotected from unjust taxation is py
strict adherence by the assessor 10 Inc
assessment laws of the state.
The speaker explained that under
the laws of the state as they no"
stand, iron ore is assessed at SO per
cent of it's full and true value;
Farm lands and all other rural
lands are assessed at 33 1-3 per cent
of full value, and city and village
real estate at 40 per cent OF full
value:
Household goods, wearing apparel,
furniture, musical instruments, sew
ing machines and everything in fact
that is used in the home to equip or
beautify it, are assessed at rs per cent
of full value:
Merchandise, live stock, tools, i'm
plements and machinery of all kinds,
manufacturers materials and manu-
featured products, and all articles
used in any kind of business or pro-
fession are assessed at SO 1-3 per
cent of full value; and
Bank stock, street railway proper
ty, the equipment of public service
corporations, and elevators and ware
houses on railroad lands, at 40 per
cent of full value.
He said that money on hand or on
deposit in a bank or elsewhere; book
accounts, promissory notes not Sc
cured by real estate mortgages which
are recorded in Minnesota and credits
of every kind; and stock in corpora
lions when the porperty of the cor
poration is not taxed in this state,
are all subject to~assessment at their
true and full value and taxed at the
low fiat rate of 8 mills on the dol
lar, the lowest rate applied to any
class of property in the state.
The speaker said that money and
credits" are peculiarly the property
of prosperous and we'll to do people,
and of course, like other property
subject to taxation, should all be as

sessed; but that in spite of the small
tax imposed upon such property, full
| ly fifty per cent is concealed from
the assessors and escapes taxation.
Mr.. Lord declared that many peo-
pie commit wilful perjury in listing
such property and are type of GRIM
inals much more dangerous to good
government than chicken thieves or
pickpockets. Certainly no one pre-
tending to be a good citizen should
attempt to evade this tax He urged
the assessors to use all honorable
means to secure a full listing of all
such property.
At the request of one of the as
SCISSORS the speaker explained the
proposed tax amendment to the state
constitution which is to be voted up
on at the general election this fall.
He said that if the amendment is
adopted the legislature will have
power, in it's discretion, to exempt
from taxation household goods, wear
| ing apparel, agricultural products
while in the possession Of the people
who produced them, and tools, i'm
plements and machinery, to such an
extent as may seem to the legislature
desirable and wise; that under this
amendment the legislature would al
so have power, in it's discretion, to ex-
empt from taxation household goods,
wearing apparel, agricultural pro-
ducts while in the possession of the
people who produced them, and tools,
implements and machinery, to such
an extent as may seem to the legisla-
ture desirable and wise; that under
this amendment the legislature would
also have power, in it's discretion, to
enact a scientific, graduated. and
progressive income tax law, thing
that it is powerless to do at present
and without which the tax laws of
any state must remain grossly mad
equate and unjust. He said that this
or some similar amendment must be
adopted before we can have any sub
stantial or satisfactory reform in our
tax laws.
The speaker said that owing to the
decreased purchasing power of the
dollar and the widespread expansion
of government activities, taxes are in
creasing at very rapid pace, con-
dition of affairs that should have the
thoughtful attention of every tax
payer. Many taxpayers seem to
think that the assessor is responsible
for high taxes, but nothing could be
further from the truth. The asses
sor as an official has nothing to do
with making taxes either high or low.
1t is the money that is voted for pub
lie purposes that determines whether
taxes shall be high or low. When
the state or county, or any cOmmun-
ity is spending large amounts of
money, it matters not what for taxes
will inevitably be high; but the as
SCISSOR as an officer has nothing to
say about how much money shall be
spent.
Matters of expenditures are de-
termined by the voters at school
meetings and town meetings.; by will
age and city councils; by county
boards, the state legislature, and by
the people themselves, not by the as
SCISSOR. But while the assessor has
practically nothing to do with max
ing taxes high or low, he has nearly
