FRENCH DRINK
CAUSES HURRY CALL FOR COP

II you we're told that a certain
Delta divine, certain Sunday School
superintendent and a certain deacon
in another church were caught in the
act of serving a nameless drink with
a kick Tuesday evening, you wouldn't
believe it, would you?
But they were. This is how it hap
pened: A certain well known gentle
mans club was having its regular
meeting and the papers were discus
sions of the famous Eighteenth Amend
ment. Very witty we're the compost
tions and they were digested with a
relish.
After the program came the refresh
ments, and her g the steward produced
some bottlesl S.hich he explained he
had smuggled from France, while the
boys were admonished not to take
more than the customary three fin
gers. The Rev.----and his re-
Ngious assistants we're measuring Off
the amounts with medicine droppers
when in bounced that terror to small
boys, the city marshal. who immedi-
ately stuck his nose into the offend
ing drink and at once declared the
bunch was ''pinched."
No one will tell just what happened
next, but It is said that somt hid under
the chairs some under the table.
while one OF the bunch frantically
tried to blow out the electric lights
and make his getaway.
No, we won't tell any more, for II
was a scandal IN high society and we
never tell tales.

To Tax PAYERS.

| Had not the tax levying boards of
I City. County and School Districts.
gone to the State Tax Commission, to
obtain permits. to increase revenues
above .05 per cent of what they were
/ in 1919. the levies based upon the
County Assessors valuations of 1920,
of Delta County, the City of Delta and
| School District No. would have been
as follows:
County levy, 6.S6 Mills, instead of
10 Mills, as fixed by the County Com
missioners.
City levy. 7,6S Mills. instead of
9.25 Mills. as fixed by the City Trus-
tees.
The levy in School District No. /,
would have been 10.2S Mills. instead
of 14,6 Mills as fixed by the School
Board.
The total levy for the State, County.
City and School District No. 1, would
have been e7.79 Mills instead of s7,sa
Mills as fixed by the several tax
levying Boards,
And the total levy outside of the
City of Delta, In School District No.
would have been 20.11 Mills, instead
of 2S.O7 Mills as fixtd by the levying
Boards.
Any taxpayer can readily determine.
by finding what his property was as
sessed at: what his taxes would have
been. had the various levying Boards
kept their bills out OF the pie. Mind

Flint, Michigan, who meets August
Sepp' state champion, arrived in Del
ia Wednesday evening from Albuquer-
que, New Mexico, where he has a
match staged for next Wednesday

Mr.. Burns ranks as topnotcher in
the wrestling game, and has been very
successful throughout his career of
over twenty years in the game. He
is most pleasing gentleman to meet
and it is predicted that his match here
this evening with Sepp will be warm
one from the very start.
August Sepp needs no Introduction
to the Delta people, but you must not
lose sight of the fact that he is consi-
dered one of the toughest following the
wrestling game to be found anywhere.
Prior to coming to Western Colorado
he cleaned up California and nearly
everyone of the western states have
wrestler. Sepp is in the best OF
shape, according to his statement
given out yesterday.
Burns toured the east last season
with the H. T. Freed Carnival COM
pany, where he came in contact with
over 300 men and out of the entire
list only three of them stayed with
Burns more than Is minutes. In his
match at albuquerque next Wednesday
he agrees to throw two men within
an hour. On January goth at Liberal.
Kansas. he meets Sergeant s. A.
vaneman in finish match.
Burns, while a stranger TO Delta
sports, comes most highly recommen-
ded and presents the appearance of
a real wrestler.
