Roberts elected to ride with the new

ly appraising the man and concluding
that the fellow would know no fear in
an emergency, but would be easily de-
ceived. Among other gossipy things
Roberts said there would have been

AT Rapid City fresh h6rses were

but little interest. 1t carried much
wealth, securely guarded. The agents
wanted none OF that game. But the

All the men carried their rifles ready

The origin of the compass has been
attributed consecutively to the Chi

1t is not absolutely certain how far
these accounts are correct. The inyen-

the discovery that iodestone or a

The word "mizpah" means watch
tower" In Genesis 81 40, there is the
story of Jacob and his uncle, who
made heap of stones which by Laban
was called "Jegarsahadutha." The
story continues: 'And Laban said:
This heap is a witness between me
and thee this day. Therefore, was
the name of it called Galead: and
Mizpah; for he said, The Lord watch

- to save the credit of the people of Mil
ford who live within the special
school district. To do this the debt has
been divided into two sections, which
can be wiped out in two years, with
out any hardship to the people. This
can be accomplished through an old
law authorizing the issue of bonds.
The assessable property for school
purposes in the Milford Special School
District, apprOximates two million
dollars, so that a tax rate of about
forty cents will cover the cost of as
sessment, collection, delinquents and
errOrs-leaving sufficient to pay. off
the bonds in two years. The old laws
clearly give the Board of Education
the power to levy and collect the tax
for this purpose, and after seriously
considering the situation and with
legal advice this policy was adopted
at a meeting of the board last Monday
evening at the high school Office.
This old debt, which should have
been paid off many years ago is es-
pecially bothersome at this time, when
the public schools are badly over
crowded and in need of more teach
6ISs SEVERAL VI Tic SAdUoS nave OfGA
fifty children in rooms intended for
40 persons to occupy. This is a waste
of the peoples money and the oppOr-
tunity of the child; because one teach
er cannot serve and care for that
many pupils each day. In all such
cases there will have to be division,
which means additional teachers-but (
let it not be forgotten, additional /
rooms for the teachers TO work in.
However, Milford will first free
herself from the old debts and con-
tinue to meet the emergencies in tenn +
porary school buildings until we can
start right and put the needs across in /
good shape.
The proposed special tax, will be
the first school tax the people of Mil
ford have paid for three years-out-
side of the twenty-five cents assessed
by the county for school purposes; so
we will be getting from under an old
debt blanket without serious hardship
20 the people.
The tax will be collected from Do
yer and Georgetown, through the Re S
,eiver Of Taxes Office, and will be ap-
)lied to payment of a bond as fast as S
t IS received.
