Rome, June 12.-Seeking the
money of the tourist in Rome:
The municipality bethought itself
of collecting from his a tax OF
10 percent Of his hotel bill, SIM
ply for the privilege of sojourn-
inc in the city. But there was
violent opposition from the pub
lie in general and hotel keepers
in particular. with the customary
references to the killing Of the
goose that lays the golden egg.
and the proposal, for the time
being at any rate, has been shelv-
ed.
Already a tourist in Rome pays

10 percent for service. supposed
to be in place of tips and a lux
Ivy tax Of from seven percent

would have made a third enforc-

well. The tourist AYERS he has

sum produced by this levy.

DR.. J. F. Black, of Albemarle,
preached his initial sermon in
the series Of protracted meetings
at the Baptist Church last night
ON the subject 'EPrayer." His
sermon was strong, to the point
and interesting througout, and
he made some splendid illustra-
tions. In. the course of his re-
marks, he said that getting pray.
er answered is like getting mon
ey from the bank-the easiest
in the world, if you have re
serve fund from which to draw
something that you have been
laying up when conditions were
better. However, he said that
God should not be called on t6
make an outright donation, and
that If you ignored him altogeth
er in your good and prosperous
times, He should not be called or
in the hour of trials and tribula
tions any more than a bank il
which you have not put any
funds.
DR.. Black is forceful preach
