Pupils May Have to Supply
Paper Soon, Officials
Announced.

The public schools are beginning
TO feel the pinch In another direction.
Having almost exhausted the ap'
preparation for stationery which was
arbitrarily cut by Congress from
$l5O.000 to 100000, school officials
announce that the pupils will prob
baly have to purchase their own
stationery after the first Of the year.
In an effort to spread the approp'
ration over as long a period as pos
sible, the children were ordered TO
write on both sides OF the paper;
teachers were given no desk books;
old books were furnished the pupils
and new books no longer have paper
covers to protect them from use.
This system may have worked sat
isfactorily last year, but the increase
in attendance this year has been out
OF proposition to the increase in ap-
preparation. it is pointed out.
BY the middle of next month the
attendance Is expected to pass the
$1,000 mark, which is said to be the
largest proportional increase the
schools have ever shown.
New additions are now being equip
ped with furniture at the Mott, John
Eaton, Wheatley and Gingsman
schools. They will probably be
ready for use next week. The Bell
school will not be completed until
early next year. The Deanwood,
Monroe and Buchanan schools are
nearing completion.

Many large business firms. Judge
Gary said, are spending millions IN
nually in the PRONUNCIATION of safety
and general welfare plans. Solely
aside from the question Of right
which Judge Gary declared was rea
son enough for the expenditures, the
proposition pays in dollars and
cents"
The proposition now engaging |ur
thought and action" Judge Gary
said, lis first of all one of HUMANITY
but il is also economic. A nation
which decreases deaths and injuries
by accidents is in the highest md
best sense conserving its resources.

of accidents, thus emphasizing &c!
the exercise OF most caution on the

D. {. TAX BILLS
ARE READY FOR
H0USEH0LDERS
Sixty Thousand to Pay TO
First Time Under New
Rates.

Sixty thousand tax bills are ready
today at the office of Tax Collector
Chatham NJ. Towers for as many
property owners Of the District.
These are the first bills to carry
the new rate Of $l.30 per 500 on a
full valuation.
Under the last District approprla
ton bill. taxes are due, one half
in May and the other half in No
vember.
Urges Full Payment.
The bills carry the full amount Of
the tax. Mr.. Sewers urges that as
mnay as possible pay the full amount
due and not wait until next May.
In this way, he says. much trouble
and confusion will be avoided both
for the collectors office and for the
taxpayer.
Householders. whose taxes run
from $40 to SIS are expected to pay
the full amount. because of the small
sum involved, but persons owning or
controlling large estates and prop
critics that are scattered over the
District will. II is believed pay only
the half due next month. In such
cases large sums are involved and
the owners would no doubt be loa the
to part with such amounts until
forced, under the law. to do so.
Personal Taxes Next.
Taxes were formerly due in May
and the rate for the last year was
$1.S2 per 500 on a two-third valua
tion.
Mr.. Towers announces that per
sonal taxes will also become due
next month. They will be collected
in the same manner as the tax on
vember and one-half in May.
To arrive at the new valuation
on local property, the tax as
SCISSORS office has used the ledger
valuation placed on the properties
at the last biennial assessment. A
new assessment is being made
now. 1t will be open for review on
January l next and become eff
fective at the end Of the fiscal

ABOUT CHAIN
RESTAURANTS
Doorsteps and Ways to Cut
Meat Also Figure in Pro-
gram at Convention.

The doorstep of the restaurant
is most important and so delegates
to the convention of the National
Restaurant Association in Conv"n-
ton Hall were told today by Leon
V. Solon. of New York. artistic
director of the Association of Tile
Manufacturers.
when customers are about to
enter a restaurant their first look
at the doorstep" said Solon, "anu
from this step they decide whether
they will get their moneys wo' tn
inside"
William Child, of the Cnilds Res
taurant Company, of New York, told
how this chain originated. He said
the sole idea at first was to pre-
sent a house of cleanliness and sani,
tation. For this reason white til
walls were adopted. Later, however,
the management of the restaurants
had decided that the sanitation idea
may be kept as well II soft colors
are used along with white.
Other speakers today were Marion
ManZer, of St. Louis: p. d. Briggs,
of New York, and Harry H. Miller, Of
Pittsburgh.
This afternoon the president OF the
association will hold a reception for
members of the diplomatic corps in
Washington.
