 One of the strongest arguments advanced for eliminating the filing of lists Is the fact that tho 1Oper cent. penalty taxed against those who do not file. invariably falls on those feast able to pay, Those who have accumulated much property have learned through experience or otherwise. that unless they file property list they will be taxed an additional 10 per cent. those who have purchased a small plot of land from the savings of many years, or the foreign element in many In stances. are unaware of the exist ence of the law. and an added tax results.

 The assessors do not anticipate objection to special act which will eliminate the filing of taxable pro perties, beginning next year. That children who attend school In the morning under the platoon or part-time system necessary in crowd ed schools do better work than those
 who attend in the afternoon Is the
 observation made by the superin- tendent of the local schools and by the principals of the schools where
 this method of attendance Is forced.
 This is laid to the fact that the
 pupils of the forenoon arrive at
 school fresh from a nights sleep,
 while the afternoon attendance Is
 made Up of children who have worn
 themselves out by morning of play.
 The platoon system is used only in
 the lower grades, and means a re-
 arrangement of the days program.
 Ordinarily where full time attend
 ance is possible. the mornings
 work is the hard work, while the
 afternoon is given over to studies
 requiring less attention and Of
 more recreational sort. When part
 time is necessary. the recreational
 portion of the days program is of
 necessity cut out, as there is not
 time for the full schedule and this
 is less important than reading. writ
 ing, spelling, and the routine work.
 Though less desirable than these 1t
 isne vertheless important. as the schools seek to train, rather than , educate. the younger children, and these easier studies form a part of child's fully rounded training. The omission of this portion of the pro-
 gram affects the morning pupil
 somewhat but it takes its full toll 7 from the already tired child who at l tends in the afternoon.
