In today's Republican considerable
space is used in advertising at tax
sale a number of pieces of real es-
tate for the non-payment of taxes
for the years 1927, 1928 and 1929.
While it is not the intention or desire
of county officials to unnecessarily en-
barrass taxpayers in thus advertising
their properties for sale, it is never
theless incumbent upon them to do so
in order to comply with the law.
