Bowen's and Manicke's Entertain

Saturday, September 10th, the
Mountain View Community Club
House was the scene Of another en-
joyable dance when the Club mem
bers and their friends gathered TO
swing their partners and promenade. :
A snappy three piece orchestra, Ernest
Pearson, and Del Adams, with Mrs.
Pearson and Mrs Adams alternating
at the piano, furnished the music for
the dance. The applause and shouts
for more gave ample evidence of its
reception
AT midnight, lunch was served. Very
few turned down second bowl of
steaming mulligan and helping of
sandwiches. And some Off; but that
would be telling!
After lunch a pleasing program was
presented. The little Misses Ellen Stuhl-
reiter and Bertha Withee, accompanied
by Miss Mary Stuhlreiter, sang two
songs which delighted their audience.
Miss Blanche Fousek played two piano
solos, Kitten on the Keys and
Twelfth Street Rag and then re-
sponded to the demand for an en-
coure with Tickle the worries" Miss
Viola Bessey gave two musical read
ings, "OP Man Conschmce" and my
House" She was accompanied by Miss
Fousek.
After the program the dancing
gathered momentum and went from
circle tWo-step to square dance with
dizzying rapidly When the dancers
finally decided to call it a night
about 3 o'clock in the morning-they
could express but one regret, that even
the best things must come to an end.
Everyone joined in expressing most
sincere congratulation to the Bowen's
and Manicke's on their very success

Study of Tax Problem
Continued from page y

payer pays sl.15 for every hundred
dollars of taxable property
For the general school and county
high school the Libby taxpayers paw
$145 on every hundred dollars of tax
able valuation.
That leaves one other fund for which
the city property owner is taxed-the
amount he pays for county expenses
The complete levy for county purposes
is 1876 mills but property owners living
within incorporated cities do not pay
the road levy of mills and therefore
the full county levy against city prop
erty is 15.6 mills. That means that Lib
by property owners must pay for coun-
ty expenses S1.56 for every hundred
dollars of taxable property one owns.
1t is interesting to divide the county
levy into its various parts. We find that
so cents of this s1.56 goes to the
general county fund, 30 cents goes to
the poor fund, 20 cents to the bridge
fund, 20 cents to the sinking fund and
6 cents to the library fund. These all
added together make the S156 each
Libby taxpayer pays for county pur-
poses on every hundred dollars of his
taxable valuation.
Now there are few other levies one
pays if one owns livestock. There is
IL mill levy for bounty purposes
against sheep, liz mill levy against
cattle and horses for livestock COM
mission, l mill bounty levy for other
livestock, a | mill levy against sheep
for the livestock commission and
mill levy against all livestock for the
livestock board These taxes of course,
are not levied except against those who
may happen to own livestock.
