and sell bonds without vote OF the
people, to raise funds TO repair coun-
ty buildings damaged by riot" says
the written statement OF Mr.. Shot
| we'll.
"The act authorizes the county
board TO levy taxes not exceeding
IS mills on the dollar on the actual
| or full market value of the property
in the county"
The county attorney underscorcs
the words actual or full market
value"
Based Upon Misrepresentation"
"Up to 1905" the statement con-
tinues, taxes in this state were
levied on the full or market value.
In 1908 the legislature enacted what
now appears as Section $500, Re
yised Statutes of Nebraska, for
1918, which provides that property
shall be assessed at one-ffth of its
market or actual value.
"The opinion rendered by Charles
B. Wood against the court house
repair bonds is based upon mis-
apprehension OF these enactments.
81 am satisfied at this time, after
carefully reconsidering the matter
that our conclusions were correct.
They were reached by myself in con-
sultation with John p. breen, Ben
S. Baker, Mr.. Ayres OF the attorney
generals office, and other eminent
attorneys.
Besides, since this special legis-
lation was procured, two district
Judges in this state have held in
litigation which presented similar
questions, that the legislature could
authorize the levy of taxes on the
actual and full market value in this
state.
mo court has decreed this bond
issue invalid, and / think il the mat
ter is presented in litigation the val
idity Of the bonds will be sustained"
Suggests Way Out.
Mr.. Shotwell probably will 60 to
Chicago this week to take up the
question personally with Mr.. Wood
and Mr.. Oakley. the bond company
attorneys.
Another way out Of the difficulty
has been suggested by Sophus Ne
Bile, county commissioner. This is
that the state of Nebra ska buy the
bonds.
81 believe the state will buy them
if the bond companies don't want
thcnl." said Mr.. Neble. The state
has the power to invest its surplus
funds in these bonds"
County Attorney Shotwell says
the state has the right to buy the
bonds.
"Of course it would not pay a
premium for them. They were sold
at a little more than Sl0l per 500
to the bond compaLies. The state
would pay par for them, if it bought
them. l believe. however, that we
will clear up the matter and con-
vince the bond companies that the
bonds are legal

TURN HAIR DARK
WITH SAGE TEA
f Mixed with Sulphur II
Darkens so Naturally
Nobody can Tell.

The old-time mixture of Sage
Tea and Sulphur for darkening
gray, streaked and faded hair is
grandmotfer's recipe, and folks are
again using it to keep their hair a
good, even color, which is quite sem
sible, as we are living in all age
when youthful appearance is Of the
greatest advantage.
Nowadays, though. we don't have
the troublesome task of gathering
the sage and the mussy mixing at
home. All drug stores sell the
ready-to-use product, improved by
the addition of other ingredients,
called "Wveth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound 1t is very popular be-
cause nobody can discover it has
been applied. Simply mosten your
comb or a soft brush with it and
draw this through your hair, taxi
ing one small strand at a time; by
morning the gray hair disappears,
but what delights the ladies will,

pound is that, besides beautifully
darkening the hair after few ap-
.plications. it also produces that soft
lustre and appearance of abundance
which is so attractive.--Adv.

Old Time Pedagogue
Gone, Boston Editor
Tells Omaha Teachers

A. L. Winsllip OF Boston, editor
of "Thc Journal Of Education" told
public school teachers yesterday
afternoon in the auditorium of Cen
trail High school, that the day of
the conventional teacher has passed.
He told of attending an educa-
tional convention in Washington
several decades ago when the pi-
oneers OF manual training and do
mestic science i'll schools were op-
posed.
I'VE now know that we must
learn by doing things, and that
book learning is not all that is to
be desired in the school ROOM"
he said. 1--WE are learning that
pedagogy is a real profession, and
we have also learned what child
study means"
Dr.. Winship reviewed the prog
ress of education, from the days
when the teachers vision was lin
tied to book learning, to the present
day system with its broadening op-
portuni.ies for the child, and urged
teachers to be progressive.

Vacates Injunction
Against Change in
Bee Building Name

In district court yesterday Judge
Troup dissolved the temporary re-
straining ORDER against a change in
rhe name of the Bee building. which
order stopped workmen who had
begun to tear out the name at the
top of the Farnam street side of the
building. and announced he would
not have time to hear arguments on
the merits of the contention for a
permanent Injunction because OF
the change of dockcts to be made
shortly in the Douglas county dis
trict courts. The matter will now
have to be set for hearing before
some other judge. In the meantime,
if tie name on the building is torn
out. and the Bee Building company
is successful in its suit, it will have
to be replaced, said Stanley Rose
