instances if they would but make the
effort.
Generally speaking, the greater
portion of money raised by taxation
is for the support of schools and for
municipal government, In this state
each $4,000 paid by the taxpayer in
our two largest cities is distributed as
follows: City Government S39.93,
schools S29.40, County Government
Sl757 and State overnment Sl3.l0.
1t will be seen from the above that
the cost of State Administration is
comparatively small which is also
true of the county, while the cost of
maintaining a city is far out Of
proportion to that of either the State
or County. 1t appears that the small
er the subdivision of government, the
greater the cost of the same.
SCHOOLS NEED MORE.
AS to schools, there is little chance
of reducing expenses as we are de-
manding and expecting better schools
and, in fact, it would be a very poor
policy to fail to provide funds that
they mey be properly financed and
improved. While the cost of sup
porting them is great, no right think
ing person should object to paying
his share, and no expenditure of pub
lie money will in the end bring great
er returns.
Necessarily the cost Of government
has increased in proportion to the in
creased cost Of living and everything
costs more than it did a few years
ago. Consequently both officials and
mployes must be paid higher salaries
or wages, supplies are costing more
and it is much more expensive to
care for an inmate of a penal or char
table institution. Further, new and
increased demands are constantly be-
ing made upon the State, and the
State today is engaging in many act
ivities that it did not formerly. Per-
haps the greatest burden that the
States have assumed is the building
Of highways. The Federal Highway

assumed Office he has had little or
no time to investigate the needs of
the different State institutions and on
this account is not able to advise the
legislature as is possible after he has
been in Office for some time. There
have been instances in this State
when money was voted for unneces-
Sary Improvements for State institu-
tions and recently the State has aban-
doned an expensive light and water
plant which was provided for one Of
the institutions for the reason that it
was much more expensive to operate
it than to obtain light and water from
an adjacent city. This is an example
of member of the legislature get
ting through an appropriation simply
because he wanted something and
this was about all he could think of
at the time.
Another cause for the increase in
taxes, is the voting Of bonds which
has become most popular and which
are very often voted on with little
consideration Of the needs for which
the money is to be raised and as a
rule little interest is taken in bond
elections. Not long ago a bond issue

The Unbalanced Woman

If she is unbalanced or unseat-
ed or out of her place, what is the
cause? Who is to blame? Who
brought about this change? There
is but one answer. Her God-de-
creed protector is to blame. Man
is wholly responsible. The fed
eral head of the family is guilty.
Woman's place is home. Her
throne is the domestic circle. She
didn't leave it of her own volition
She didn't sacrifice her place vol
unfairly. Man is wholly RESPONSE
Bile for the unbalanced condition
OF woman. He is the federal head
of the family. 1t is his business
to provide and protect. And it
is his business to exercise the
righteous discipline necessary to
a perfect home and a good gov
ernment. He has utterly failed in
these last two duties. He has fail
ed through indulgence, because Of
a lack of courage, a sense of re-
sponslbility, and a willingness to
face his plain duty. He has prac-
ticed indulgence until he has made
the woman extremely extravagant.
The average girl hates work,
despises domestic responsibility,
and is criminally conspiring to
avoid those high duties.
The man has neglected to build
the home, to make it attractive

Acts have caused every State to or
ganize Highway Commissions which
are necessarily large and expensive
organizations and which are spending
vast sums of money. This to a large
extent transfers to the State an ex-
pense which was formerly borne by
the County or local community and
while it necessarily increases the
State expenditures, there is no ques-
tion but that it is bringing about bet
ter highways and is saving large
sums of money formerly wasted upon
poorly located and i'll constructed
highways.
SELFISH DEMANDS.
Unfortunately, at each session of a
legislature each community and in
terest demands from the legislature
appropriations for its particular ben
eft. Few members of legislature
have a general knowledge of the
State or its institutions, and frequent
ly have to take it for granted that an
appropriation is necessary and
through lack of knowledge money is
sometimes voted unnecessarily. As
usual thing, during the first session
of legislature, after a Governor has

people of a school district and at the
election $50 voted; one person for
each 81 900 of bonds to be issued. II
seems that many fail to realize that
bonds must be paid and that to retire
them and pay the interest the money
must be raised by some form of tax.
alton.
BUDGET BENEFITS.
There is no question but that the
adoption of the budget system in
many of the States means the saving
of large sums of money that were
formerly voted without regard to the
necessities of the State government;
in fact without a budget system ap-
preparations are made haphazard
while with the budget careful sur
vey is made of all proposed expendi-
lures. Further, the provision in
many budget laws that no appropria-
ton can be made by legislature
until after the passage of budget
bill does much to discourage the in
PRODUCTION of appropriation bills.
AS to the cost of City government,
the people themselves by taking more
interest in municipal affairs, could
bring about more efficient and more
economical City Government and il
Cities would employ qualified per-
sons to superintend their expendi-
lures a great deal of waste could be
eliminated If more careful consid.

happens to be an eight Of a twin

Even the slowest of us, the low-gear-

and magnetic. Consequently, the
woman has gone out into the
world. Many of them because of
necessity have been forced into
the trades to live. Many of them
have gone out into the world be-
cause the head Of the family did
not perform his duty, did not make
the home happy, did not regulate
it. Women have been thrown into
the nerve-wracking conditions of
the outer world. The strain is too
great, her nerves are unsettled;
she is unbalanced. Her unbal-
anced condition has produced a
state of extravaganza, female reck-
lessness, which is jeopardizing the
whole domestic life of America.
The man is wholly to blame for
these wretched conditions.
II fathers do not go back to
their homes, and husbands do not
perform their duties as federal
heads Of their families, the DOM
estic life Of America will suffer
irreparably. The guilt of the men
has unbalanced the women and
has produced social conditions
which bring the blush to every
cheek.

stances, they would not be voted, but
as long as the people are demanding
more and more reduction in expenses
cannot be expected, and only when
the time comes that the people and
their duly elected representatives
make up for that which is absolutely
necessary can they expect a reduc-
ton in State, City, or Municipal

"The high school student Of today
possesses two areas OF mental activ-

second, appreciation Of what has been
done," said President Lotus D. Coff-
man of the University of Minnesota,
In his address to the sos graduates
Of the Arsenal Technical High Schools
at the Cadle Tabernacle last night.
1.-THE first includes an area of ap-
plication and fundamentalisin, In
which the students confront TIE ap-
parently trivial, but In reality the first
vital, problems of their lives. This
area Is constituted by vocational
training and is preliminary to the
realization of life, the profound and
the beautiful Of true hfe," President
Coffman went on to say. THE second
embodies the appreciation Of the arts,
literature, science and the languages.
The beautiful and noble Is unclothed;

to cope with the problems Of life"
