That was the expectation from the be- ginning and undoubtedly Was ouc Of the reasons why the congressman led the battle for the adoption Of the capportionmcnt bill.

HELPING THE TAXPANERS BY SAVING HOW MUCH

Mayor Quiglcy is making some show Of saving money for the tax payers. Thus he shows a disinclina- tjon to construct new Northond school at the present time, prefer ring to let that wait until business is booming.
 It is interesting 10 note what is saved by the process.
 The school would cost $4oO,Qo0- which is at least s3oo0o less than it would cost 10 construct during times of 100 per cent prosperity.
 The bonds would run $o years. This years payment would be tl5.- a-a and each year thereafter there would he payment oc SIelo.
 The cost this year. then, would he S15,oo0. This would amount to 5-2och oG one mill on the tax rate,
 As against this there is the cost Of repairing the school is a new one Is not built.
 Ir. Quic.ey here much more con- se~atiye than when contemplating possible increases in the tax rate, allows the repairs could he pro,id- cd for s5,gog. and they would be soo4 for few years.
 Others claim the repars would run up to s25.oQg-the later figure s1oo0o moro than the first payment clas year on a new school building would cost
 To he true. an attempt will be made to discover what the necessary repairs actually will cost, and one good guess is that these will quite easily match 1he first payment on a naw school building
 should tuls he the case. then the Mayor saves exactly nothing this year for tho taxpayers uy rostpou- ing Inc erection os q new school uuIdn=
 But thai would he only rart oc ehs story + the repairs arc made they will last only two or three years. when a new school will have 70 he built anyway. That 1in mean tho costs oG the present repairs wIu be throwing away money.
 Throwing away money is not doing much for the taxpayers.
 Lastly. there is rho unquestion- able conclusion that 10 construct the new building now will savo s2o.oDo Or more in the long run. Thirty thousand dollars ought 10 ha son.e- thing for the taxpayers.
 And unless the Mayor is Of thc opinion that hard times Will last for tho best part Of 3o years-vhich Of course he is entirely loo optimistic to bclieya-thc sIooo yesr on the school would be pad for during such good times that inc city would scarcely feel i,.
 There is inc matter Of a5dmg  taxpayers in different way than the Mayor is thinking about. He is lccqly concerned regarding thu fl- nancial straits os various taxpayers. some Of them heinz unemployed. We wonder whether construction men arc among the number, This is at least possible, and they may need the work now much more than in flush times.

Vigor by Eating a Sweet

Medical investigations show that
daily fatigue not only makes the
system susceptible to illness and
organic troubles, but also lessons
ones efficiency. Tired people, espe-
cially those engaged in Offices and
stores, have difficulty in concen-
trating OF keeping awake" on the
job.
Most business people find that
four o'clock is their zero hour as
far as vitality is concerned. To re-
new vigor at this time, many men
and women take a moment to eat or
drink something sweet. The results
are surprising almost instantly
fatigue is overcome.
Medical men and food scientists
who have experimental along these
lines say that the renewed vigor IS
caused by the refined sugar in the
food or beverage. Sugar nourishes
the body very quickly and when this
occurs fatigue disappears.
Americans, it is said, are more
subject to business fatigue than any
other nationality. However, Aneri-
