WINCHESTER, Va, January 30
The annual assessment of personal
property, to be started Monday in
every city, town and county of Vfr-
ginia, will differ in some respects
from those in the past, in that new
regulations require a more stringent
and much more personal exploration
into the intimate details of each citi-
zen's holdings. Heretofore it has
been customary for the taxpayer to
tell the assessor to Just assess me
the same as last year" This will
not do in 1925, it was stated The
assessor is charged with the duty
of finding out. what taxable property
each and every person has, and is
liable to prosecution if he does not
do it. All kinds of personal property,
from an automobile or piano down to
the last frying pan on the premises,
are TO be assessed at fair mark ct
value. Information on money in bank
and notes, bonds and other securi-
ties is to be wrung from the tax
payer.

DRUG CONFERENCE
LEADERS CALLED
Private Meeting to Seek
Agreement Is Set for
Tomorrow.
BY the Associated Press.

GENEVA, January 30.-A private
meeting of the leaders of the interna-
tional opium conference has been
called for tomorrow in an endeaVor
to reach an agreement on the dis
puted question of the suppression of
opium smoking in the Far East. The
hope is that an agreement may be
reached to be presented to the meet
ing Of the joint commission of the
first and second opium conferences
appointed to take up this subject, set
for tomorrow afternoon.
Niscount Cecil, head of the British
delegation, is anxious to leave Geneva
in time to reach London next Wednes-
day for the British cabinet discussion
OF the Geneva peace protocol.
The chief difference to be ironed
out is that between the American and
some of the European delega lions as
to the time when the proposed IS
year period for the suppression of
opium smoking shall begin. The
Americans desire to start at once
while the British and French pro-
posalS provide that it shall begin
when the cultivation of opium by
China shall have been appreciably
reduced.

At least the picture certainly had a

as We come out, just like he done
when we was first going together,
and he give it a little squeeze.
Well, old lady, he says, that was

NEW YORK, Aug. 29.-FOur
~ trees-an English oak, an elm,
a red oak and a Norway red maple
were the other day planted by a
group Of club women, in a corner Of
this city's largest park, thus forming
the beginning of what is to be known
as the Honor Grove Of the Living"
"a sort Of arboreal Hall of Fame.
The four women selected for honor.
ing through the planting OF these the
first four trees of the grove, are
each prominent in connection with
charity and relief work in this city.
am wondering if a tree in this
grove will not at some future date
be planted in honor Of the founder
Of the City Garden Club Of New
York? No other form of testi-
monial could be quite so appropri-
ate, for 1t Is this organization which
has been yearning for several years
to convert as many as possible OF
the entirely barren residential
streets of the Metropolis into shaded
thoroughfares. Think of the change
that will be made in the appearance
Of miles upon miles Of menotonous
brownstonc bordered streets, If the
effort proves generally successful!
New York would hardly look the
same place then.
"How can it possibly be accom-
plished?' / remember having asked
one Of the women interested in the
project, sometime ago. "Will the
city authorities permit the tearing
up Of pavements? And how can
trees be expected to thrive whose
roots are under concrete or granite
blocksT
"Recent experiments" she re-
piled, shave proven that deposits Of
properly selected soil within very
circumscribcd spaces will enable the
roots Of certain transplanted young
trees to get a DEMONSTRATING grasp
and consequently there need be much
