Maintenance and operation of
schools is the biggest single item of
epense to taxpayers, both in Indiana
as a whole and in Indianapolis. I'm
like other taxes, school costs in Indl-
annapolis, with the exception of ex-
penses of the public library, have been
fairly stationary during the last four
years.
Indianapolis taxpayers this year VIII
pay $4,S76. S63.62 into various school
funds. exclusive of the library fund,
into which will be paid SSOs, 975.47. In
addition. the city receives from the
state each year approximately $780,
600 from the State school levy.
Tuition Fund Largest
School money is divided into num-
Der of funds, including tuition. special
fund. free kindergarten, teachers pen
sion, school health. vocational, indus
trial school, school building and bond,
and library
The tuition fund. which goes for
payment of teachers, is largerNhan all
the others together. In 1929, S2,129,-
141.24 was levied for this fund; in 1921,
S2.31. 27S. 20: in 1922. $3.297. 1860. and
in 1928, s3,151 .549.79.
The school special fund varies with
the need for money. a total OF
SI,44S,17O.62 was collected in 1919;
s1.946,64 in 1920; S2.193,427.71 in
1921: 1851, 1912 in 1922 and S1,013,-
1884 in 1923.
Funds Decrease
Free kindergarten costs are slight
" lower this year than in previous
years. The most recent levy is ex-
pected to raise S49, 43e.07. In previ-
Gus years it has varied from $4,000
TO $4,000.
The teachers pension fund has been
decreasing during the last few years.
In 1919, $50. 610.75 was levied for this
purpose. In 1922 the levy had dropped
to S5,995.26. In 1928 the levy, pay
able this year, was increased to $12,-
359.O1.
More attention is being paid to
health in the schools. ana. as a re-
suit. the school health levy Is growing
In 1919, S20,675.62 was levied for this
purpose. In 1922 the levy was S29,-
1858. In 1928 it was increased to
49,, 692 So.

BROWN & HILL OPEN
NEW FACTORY HERE

C. j.. Brown, local inventor of a
wide variety Of ingenious devices for
tie amusement, expediency and COM
fort of mankind, has lately devised a
new style of in-sole to ease tired
feet, and he and r. G. Hill have
opened a small factory at the Brown
home. They are operating under the
name of ''The Ojoy Company"
Mr.. Hill, who is taking care of the
selling end of the business, declares
that orders are swapping the fac
tory and that they plan to install ma
chinery to speed up the output.
Many River Falls people are now
wearing the foot comforter and all
are enthusiastic in their praise of the
invention. 1t is an extra sole for
the inside of the shoe, made Of
leather and rubber, fashioned to fit
any IRREGULARITIES of the foot or sup
port the arch and is cleverly devised
to insure complete ventilation.

BLOCKED PUNT WINS
FOR RED & WHITE

Myron Heebink of Baldwin carved
himself a mitch in River Falls Nor
NAL schools hall of athletic fame
here last Saturday when he broke
thru the Hamline university line,
recovered a blocked Hamline punt
and plunged over the goal-line for
the only score of the game.
The Pipers and the Pedagogues
had battled on even terms through
two thrilling quarters, with the lat
ter having shade the best of it by
virtue of Capt. Mike Smiths bril-
liant offense, but it looked like a
scoreless affair until soon after the
opening of the second half, when
Heebink's masterful coup brought
victory.
In the last quarter Hamline's
famous full back, F. Pedler, was sent
in to lead a desperate drive which,
starting on the Piper 10-yard line,
threatened disaster until it was stop
ped by a heroic Red & White stand
on the River Falls 3-yard line.
Just before the game started Mil
ton Hahn, of the Hamline squad, had
his right leg broken when, in run
ming to catch practice pass, he col
lided with one of the River Falls
players. He was taken to The Peo-
pies Hospital where the bone was
set, and he was taken on to St. Paul
by train that afternoon.
Lawrence Dawson had the tendons
of one ankle dislocated in one of the
closing scrimmages of the game.
1t is expected, however, that he will
be back in the lineup in couple of
weeks. His brother, Lowell Dawson,
who was out of Saturdays fracas on
account of a game leg, is also ex-
pected back in play before the first
conference tilt.
The assuring feature Of Saturdays
game was the brilliant showing made
by the River Falls forward wall,
mostly green material, but husky and
alert.

SUNDAY SCHOOL RALLY
AT VIKING CHURCH

At the request of the Viking and
Mlartell Norwegian Methodist Sun
day school leaders and their pastor,
Rev. Nils Kolberg, a Sunday school
rally was held in the Viking church
Sunday evening, Sept. %, under
direction of the Pierce County Sun
day School association. The rally
was in charge of Mr.. Malott, Miss
Armstrong and Miss Deans, officers
of the association, assisted by Mrs.
Frank Bliss, all of River Falls.
A half hours informal conference
with the pastor and local leaders was
held prior to the evening service,
which was conducted by the visiting
workers. AS result Of the confer
ence and service, the two schools
were organized and new teachers re-
cruited.
These schools are very apprecia-
tive of supply of graded lesson
materials which was furnished them
by one of the larger schools of the
county. This latter point is sugges-
tive to some Of the other larger
schools which have quantities of I'M
used, excellent material going to
waste. Undoubtedly there are other
schools in the county that could be
helped in this same way.

Live Stock Show
Booster Meeting
Meeting At City Hall Next Tuesday
Evening To Decide On Plans For
1925

Most people are agreed that the
livestock show has been of much
value to the community. When first
organized the pure-bred animal was
the exception. The first show was
largely an exhibition of grade ami
mails and very common individuals
at that. Each year showed improve.
ment in the animals exhibited until
at the recent shows animals were
here that would make a creditable
showing at any state fair. There are
many fine grade herds headed by
pure-bred sires in this community
and we believe the stock show has
been a factor in this development.
The Inter County Live Stock show
has enjoyed the distinction of being
one of the largest stock shows in the
state. L. L. Oldham, Secretary of
the Wisconsin Holstein Breeders
Association, made a visit to this
community last summer and he was
very much surprised to find such
large number of pure-bred animals
and of such high quality. In fact,
he was so impressed with what he
found that he urged each of the two
counties to have county herd at the
State Fair. This was done and
Pierce and st. Croix counties made a
very creditable showing there.
Since 1912 excellent shows have
been held. With limited funds the
show grew steadily. The first shows
required less than 500 to finance
them. However, as it enlarged and
began to draw from larger terri
story more money was needed. County
fairs are offering more money in
prizes and in order to keep up the
show considerable more money is
needed. The show now costs from
5000 to $500 year, and in order to
continue it will have to be put on a
more permanent financial basis.
Does River Falls wish to have this
show continue? A meeting will be
held Tuesday evening in the City
Hall to discuss this matter. Whether
we shall continue to have the best
show in this part of the state is up to
the people here. If the community
really wishes to have more of these
live stock fairs there should be a
large attendance next Tuesday even
ing. The time is o'clock.

CITY WILL VOTE
FOR NEW BRIDGE

The Junction bridge, over the Kin
nickinnic river just above the city
electric power station, has about
completed its long term of staunch
service, and will soon be unsafe for
traffic.
Recognizing this fact the City
Council last Monday eveing passed
resolution providing for the issue
of bonds to raise funds to replace
this bridge.
The resolution will be put mp to a
vote of the people of River Falls at
the regular election to be held
November 4.
The Junction bridge was built
about fifty years ago, tt material
being hauled here from Hudson by
Junction mill teams, which would
take loads of mill produce to Hudson
and bring back bridge material.

BUICK FIRST CHOICE
AT NATIONAL AUTO SHOW

Spaces for the National Aut.E.,-
bile Shows in New York and Chi
cago were drawn by the manufactur-
ers on Thursday afternoon, October
End at the National Automobile
Chamber Of Commerce offices, 500
Madison Avenue, New York.
The Buick Motor Company for the
seventh consecutive year was award
ed first choice of space by reason of
the fact that Buick did the largest
volume of business in dollars and
cents during the past year.
winning of first place for the past
seven years." says E. T. Strong,
General Sales Manager, sis conclus-
i've evidence of the fact that Buick
hold the position of leadership in the
minds of the general public. If this
were not so, the public would not
continue to buy Bucks year after
year in such quantities as to enable
Buick to continue to have first place
at the shows
"Buick has long been the standard
of comparison says Strong, largely
due to the constant efforts of Buick
engineers who for a period Of over
twenty years have constantly i'm
proved Buick, adopting each year all
those advanced features that are
found desirable and practical after
exhaustive experiment. 1t is the
general opinion that the National
shows this year will be the most inn
portant for the trade and public in
the history of the business.
GAS this will be the Silver Jubilee
of the industry more than usual at
tention will be paid to beautiful
decorations which will help make the
events memorable"
In New York the show will be held
from January End to 10th in the Big
Armory where last years successful
show was held.
Additions to the Coliseum in Chi
cago mean that the show this time
will be under one roof.
Buick is fully aware of its re-
sponsibility as a leader" says Mr..
Strong" and will bend every effort
to continue to serve the motoring
public as it has in the past and thus
maintain its present enviable posi-
ton in the industry"

Orange & White Trims
Red Wing Trainers
Gopher Tribe Fights Gamely, But
Are No Match For River Falls
High-Final Score Is 80 to o.
Hudson High Plays Here Saturday
By Marshall NOrseng

River Falls high school defeated
the Red Wing Training school
eleven here last Friday afternoon 33
to 0. The visitors were husky, speedy
and game, but were woefully lacking
in teamwork training.
Red Wing received the opening
kickoff and started a strong Of
fensive, but the local gridders soon
took the ball on downs and then
gave a real exhibition of driving
power.
Standish broke away for II yards,
Bliss added z, Carisch ripped off 7
thru tackle, Manion plowed thru for
10 more and then Standish slipped by
the whole outfit for the first touch
down.
Another touchdown was added
within a few minutes, Bliss and
Standish dividing honors in this at
tack.
In the second quarter Coach Khan
rud ran in ten Orange & White sub
stitutes at one time. Knowles and
Jensen starred at defensive work
during the remainder of the half,
which ended with the score at 20 to
%.
River Falls opened up their air
attack and scored two more touch
downs, bringing the final score to 33
to 0, in favor of the locals. Capt.
Carisch starred in catching forward
passes. The home tribes passing
was greatly improved over their last
game, and they gained 70 yards in
this manner Friday.
The Red Wing boys put up clean,
game battle to the very last, in spite
of the odds against them.
Next Saturday River Falls plays
Hudson high, which recently defeated
Cretin high of St. Paul. 1t should
be thrilling game.

who dug fourteen tubers out of two
hills in her Cascade avenue garden
last week, the total weight OF which
was 1914 pounds. One specimen
alone weighted IL pounds.
1t is the first year that potatoes
