son is "a busy man.
Exeland people would appreciate a
letter train service to Iadysmith. The
way the trains run one can go to Exc

the evening there, but if one wanted to
go to Ladysmith he always has to stay
over night to make the trip.

TRUSTEES SPENT
$6O,772.O5 FOR
VILLAGE IN 1920
Village Treasurer Collected
97.66 Per Cent of the
Municipal Tax

The officials of the village Of St
Johnsbury are preparing their annua
reports to be submitted to the voters
at the caucus on the evening Of Dec
20 and they VIII be read with interest
by the taxpayers. The receipts fol
the fiscal year included loans amount
ng to 1880, taxes collected OF
$5l, ,3G8.34; license fees Of $40; mis-
cellaneous receipts Of $330.30; water
rentals Of $794.35; apportionment of
state taxes Of $73932; credits OF
$1,01012 and abatement Of taxes
amounting TO S1,732.45.
The disbursements included loans
repaid Of $4,000, trustees orders Of
1,0G0.l2, interest amounting to
$2,038.43. The village treasurer col
lected $41, ,G1563 and there is now
uncollected taxes amounting to
$1,139.99
The statement Of the village in
debtedness for the past two years is
as follows:
Outstanding
Trustee orders
fol money bor-
rowed S19,j000O $27,50000
Cash on hand 4,4l292 5,71486
Outstanding taxes
3,G32.S6 3,G63.62
In closing that portion of the re-
port furnished by the village treas
urer Dir. Braley says: "There has
been no meeting of the board of civil
authority since 1915 for the abate-
ment Of taxes, and necessarily the
figures which represent the outstand-
ing taxes arc considerably in excess
Of what can be collected, it being the
policy to carry these as long as there
is any chance for collecting. 1t is
probable that about $500 Of the
aboye outstanding taxes a3 of Dec.
4, 1920, can be counted as an asset
for the village, The balance is made
up of poll taxes of the floating pop
ulation, improper assessments and
errors in assessing, there being prac-
tically no taxes on real estate Of long
standing.
The village treasurer collected in
the 80 days 97G6 per cent Of the
1920 village tax, and the village con-
stable made returns on back taxes TO
the amount Of Sl,130G6, which
amount is practically the same as the
balance of unpaid taxes to be turned
over for collection of the 1920 taxes,
or 1899.
Total tax assessed 1920, $44,48807.
Total tax collected 1920, $44,478.74.
The total gross amount Of the ord
crs paid by the village trustees is
$50, ,772.05, but OF course there are
several thousand dollars of credits TO
be deducted to get at the net cost Of
the village Of St. Johnsbuly
for the past year.

GOOD PLAN BUT
1T DIDN'T WORK

The St, Johnsbury Academy is
a very Democratic institution.
If you don't think so ask some OF
the senior boys today.
The Senior class reception
takes place this evening. A few
Of the young men on the inside
regarding the arrangements had
the work of printing the dance
orders. This little group, the
memberi Of which in1ater life
will probably sit around table
among such great generals as
Foch, Pershing and Haig and
plan campaigns, decided TO place
a priority order on the use of
the dance cards. They picked out
the prettiest girls and best dane
ers in the school and booked their
cards full
Then some one SPILLED the
beans. The other class mem
bers found out about it. They
were quick to action. They filled
a protest with Principal Wilson.
He promptly summoned the class
officers and others who had dante
cards, before him and collected
all the cards, some with the dance
orders completed from "soup to
nuts" and took possession of
them all.
When the reception comes to-
night it will be a very Democratic
affair. Some of the boys who had
booked up the pretty girls and
best dancers will be right in the
scramble for partners with the
rest of their classmen. Principal
Wilson believes in equal rights
for all" The great generals who
planned the campaign even now
claim that ait was a brilliant
idea" even if it didn't work.

Approximately - per cent of the IL
duStry in this section including max
er5 of both cotton and wooden pro-
ducts We're represented at the con-
ference, it is said. The industry en-
, ploys about 100000 persons. Such a
reduction, according to the statement
would bring the wage schedules hack
Approximately to the figures that ex-
listed year ago and would level the
wage standard generally more than
double that Of 1915. The p escnt
stagnant condition of the textile n
dustlies makes consideration of
wage reduction necessary, it was
stated. After explaining that all see
tions of New England as we'll as N w
York state were represented by the
manufacturers who took part in the
conference the statement says in
part:
1T is evident, from what has trans
pired in the past few months, that
there has been an insistent and COM
pelling demand on the part of the
public that the cost of living should
be lessened by readjustment of the
prices of commodities entering into
the expense of daily life. Manufae'
urers have been reluctant to
radical changes in of
seemed to state i .'sele willingness on
the part of the retailer to do bu mess
on a lower basis of price.
"The refusal of buyers to purcha
goods for the past four or five months
on high basis of cost has led to a
stagnation of the market, upon VIII ch
the manufacturers depend, so that at
the present time many of the textile
mills III New England have been OBJ
legged to shut down. Many more are
working on short time and unless
something is done to remedy these
conditions unemployment will be in
creased and continued.
"In order to stabilize condition so
that goods can be purchased and
business can be done, it is indispen-
siblv necessary that there should be
some wage reduction. Accordingly it
has been suggested that a reduction
Of 22 1-2 nor cent will aid materially
in establishing the market.
"If this turns out to be the result,
employment can pc pfoVldeQ ana II is
hoped and expected that business can
proceed on this basis. 1t is also hop
ed that the public will lreSpond to this
suggestion and that manufacturers
vii lbe able to 90 on with their manu-
featuring processes with no further
reduction in the wages of employees"
The directors of the American
Woolen Company have not as yet
considered reducing the wages of its
operatives according to statement
authorized by William Wood, presi
dent of the company today. The
statement wa smade in reply to a
question whether the American Wool
en- Company and its fifty mills were
at the conference of tex
tile manufacturers which issued Il
statement forecasting a wage rtduc-
ton of % 1-2 per cent.
