Council Fixes City Tax Rate At $175 For Fiscal Yea
by the Council after the budget was
formally adopted.

by the COUHCII dIIeT UHe UUUSeC Wds
formally adopted.
After passing the budget ordinance,
M. W. Wester, supervisor of finance,
read the tax levy ordinance, stating
in detail the tax levy for all city pur-
poses, itemized in groups and depart
ments, the largest of which was 81
for general city purposes.
It had been generally known that
the tax rate would be greatly increas-
d. Several months ago city authorities
talked of a rate of $3.50 as the figure
to which they hoped to hold the levy.
Later guesses ran as high as So, and
ON Monday it became definitely
known that the Council was contem-
plating the SITS levy, which was pre-
sented and adopted Monday night.

HOW ABOUT A MUSICAL
 CHRISTMAS?

All these Christmas carols float ing on the air should be a tip to the wise to make this a musical yuletide.
 If there's talent in your home, it might be guided into the paths of genius if your young hopeful were to find baby grand piano, a violin or guitar, or even a flute or piccolo in his stocking, come Christmas morn. And even the baby grands and new vertical pianos are small enough this season to fit into small apartment.
 For Every Room
 Radios, of course, belong in every home. If there is one for every room of every home the program problem is solved Johnny can listen to Gang Busters while mother savers the symphony; sister can practice big-appling with the boy friend while father cheers the hockey. Even the wandering big son may have his radio with him in car or carrying case, for radios come in every size from vest-pocket up, and also in every finish to harmon ize with the furniture, or the inclin- ation.
 For true music lovers, consider the radio-phonograph with it's gifts of records and record albums.
 How About an Ocarina?
 As for youngsters who like their music hot, harmonicas come in any key, or chromatic with sharps and flats. Saxophones dispel the blues (and take that any way you want to). There are bugles for the Boy Scouts. Accordions are an orches- tra in themselves. If the prospect makes you tremble, remember les sons may be bought with the in- strument
 High favor with the younger set is the clear whistling ocarina (per- haps you'll recognize it as the old- time sweet potato"O. Drums? Buy them if you like nor spare the neighborsl

 Well, there's just one I'm really crazy about" Bill answered. "All the fellows think she's swell. Her pictures on my dresser, and when ever I'm in doubt, I talk things over with her"
 How grand" said Betty Jane in a tight little voice. They came to the mistletoe. How different from last year, when she was just learn ing to love him!
 T have her picture on my watch, too," Bill went on, his eyes twink ling brighter than the silver star atop the tree.
 You used to carry mine there" !" Betty Jane observed, and managed somehow to laugh lightly.
 And still do,' said Bill, exhibit ing it. "All the fellows are jealous of the girl I left behind me. There isn't girl in all the world, let alone college, like you, Betty Jane. And by the way, don't you know that a pretty girl should always stop when she comes to mistletoe?" Helen Waterman.

With skirts going shorter, hose are in the spotlight and there never was a girl who got too many Christmas stockings. Colors are brown sugar and spice and every thing nice, not overlooking the in toxicating wine tones. To make the present more gifty, stockings may be found in fancy boxes and chests that will last long after the hose have literally run out.
