Leisure and Ldziness
Matters Far Apart

II the women's clubs are futile and
the politics get nowhere. and If dis
illusioned age has found that charity

frankly instead Of camouflaging a
pleasant and idle life with pretense
of vast activity, or hiding behind the
children's rompers or the responsible
ity of table service or anything else?
Leisure is good for women, and If
they are of the temperament to enjoy
It, let them have it. Hard work is
good and necessary for some women,
and there is still and will be for a
long time plenty of interesting non
professional work for women to do, If
they have the ability and tempera-
ment. But the air needs more clear
ing. No one should have to apologize
for not flying into what is really
voluntary work. No one should be-
come absurd for going into it. But If
one stays out it should be because
one openly prefers leisure.
Leisure and laziness have nothing in
common. Laziness breeds discomfort
and cripples energies. Leisure breeds
humor, of which we need much, and
beauty, of which we need more, and
philosophy, of which we need most.

Constancy That Gaue

Behind him lay the gray Azo-es-be-
hind, the gates of Hercules; before
him not the ghosts Of shores-before
him only shoreless seas. His good
mate said: "Now must we pray, for
10! the very stars are gone! Brave
admiral, speak; what shall say?"
"Why, say Sail on sail on sail on T."
They sailed, and sailed, as winds
might blow, until. at last, the blanched
mate said: "Why, now, not even God
would know, should and all my men
fall dead. These very winds forget
their way, for God from these dread
seas seem gone; now, speak, brave ad-
miral; speak and say" He said,
Sail on sail on! sail on!
Then, pale and worn. he kept his
deck, and peered through darkness.

A Touchstone

The vitality of translation, so far
as it is a translation, Is necessarily
limited by the primary vitality Of its
original Virgil and Horace are
among the immortals, the classics, not
Of one age or country, but of all time
and all the world. Each one redis-
covers and reinterprets them, and no
translation can interpret more than
one phase Of their complex quality,
their multiform significance. The at
titude of any period towards poetry,
the meaning that poetry has for any
period, may be partly gagged, by OBJ
serving what it found In the classics,
and what, therefore, 1t expressed in
its translations.-J. w. Mackail, in
STUDIES of English poets"

Pictures Valuation

The picture by Whistler called "Old
Battersea Bridge" is alluded to as the
"Nocturne in Blue and Gold" It was
the source Of one of the artists most
famous wittieisms. The opposing
counsel in the suit for libel which
Whistler brought against Ruskin In
1878 ELECTED the fact that the picture
had been painted in two days, and
then asked: 'The labor of two days;
then Is that for which you ask 200
guineas" To which Whistler retort-
ed with dignity: mo; l ask it for
the knowledge Of a lifetime" This
picture sold two years later for 1000
guineas.

BOARD WILL
START WORK
ON TAX LEVY
But Lacking Data Il Will Be
Handicapped in Making
Broad Survey
COUNTIES LAG BEHIND
Beard Retirement Fund Will
Raise Observation-Disclosures
Problem Also Up

Although scheduled to begin work
tomorrow on it's job of equalzing
taxes assessed in various parts of
the state, much of the data necessary
to broad survey of the tax situa-
ton will not be available when the
state board of equalization convencs,
it became apparent today.
Two major factors enter into the
discussion Of the possibility of rcduc-
ing the state levy this year. The
first is the state soldiers bonus and
the other is the state bond retire
ment fund.
Adjutant General G. A. Fraser has
been at work for several weeks on
the problem Of how much will be
needed to finish paying the bonus.
He expects to submit report to the
board soon but it will not be avail
able by tomorrow. Indications arc
that Fraser will ask for only one
fourth Of the one-mill levy which the
law authorizes. This means that only
E250,00O in addition to past lcvies
will be necessary to complete the
bonus payments. At the same time it
offers the possibility Of reducing the
levy threc-fourths of mill or $780,
600.
Retirement Fund May Boost Levy
The bond retirement fund, if it
does anything, will shove the levy
higher, however. Decision on this
roint rests not only with the cquali-
zaticn board but with State Treasur-
cr &. A. Fisher. Under the law pro-
viding for levics to maintain the
bond interest and retirement fund,
the state treasurer is required to
recommend levy il, in his Judg-
mcnt. it els necessary.
The equalization board also has an
option in the matter as to whether
it shall levy the amount which the
treasurer asks. In other words, UNI
der the law, the treasurer and equal
ization board must agree before a
levy is made for that purpose.
What Fisher will recommend is not
known. He says he has not deter
mined it himself. Several weeks ago
he indicated that he believes the real
estate bond fund will carry itself de-
spite the fact that the interest ac-
cbunt was insufficient by $239,O00 to
NEE: the interest due and payable
july l. His idea is that collections
for the fund this fall and winter will
put it in good shape. Delinquent in
stallments on real estate loans now
total more than $2,O0O,O00 and col
lection Of this money would make the
fund not only strong but prosperous.
Tax Data Being Compiled
Data on the tax valuations assessed
by county boards throughout the
state now is being complied by the
state tax commissioner but it will be
several days before the work is COM
pleted. Some counties have not yet
submitted complete reports.
A check will be made by the tax
commi ssioner in which valuations
proposed by the county commissions
Will be compared with the valua-
tons as finally set by the board Of
equalization two years ago.
Under the law real estate valua-
tons are reviewed only once in two
years. 1t will be considered this year
alcng with the numerous other items
entering into the general tax dupli-
cate.
