Another friend of mine makes frightful
mistake every time she has a session at a
beauty salon. She is distinctly motherly
type of woman, with graylng hair. a sweet
face, and very erect, sprightly but matronly
figure. Everything about her makeup should
be soft and dignified. But she emerges from
the beauty parlor with her hair set in narrow
rather sharp waves and, most distressing OF
all, with her eyebrows pluCked to the pencil
line that only an insolent young beauty could
get away with. She looks like something made
by machine. not someone born of woman.
Her face has, in unfortunate truth, become

those things you do not tell even your best

NEED FOR PROPERTY APPRAISAL
 IN JUNEAU

& Juneau is going ahead with public improvements to keep abreast of it's rapid growth Taxpayers Of the city went to the polls yesterday and by their a verdict left no question of their endorsement or the improvements which the Council has been con- sdering Well over the 65 percent affirmative, which was needed for approval was given each Of the five propositions the ballot.
 Only 30 votes were cast against the small boat harbor bonds as compared with 461 which approved them The same sentiment through the entire election. Smallest percentage of endorsement was given the right-ofway proposition, the vote being 37O for and 99 against.
 The vote represented approximately 50 percent of the eligible of the city total of 499 ballots being against tax roll containing around 1000 names In view of the fact that many of the tax payers whose names appear on the tax roll were not in town for the election it substantial turnout and about what had been expected.
 But in addition to the fact that all the bond issues were approved by top-heavy majorties assur ing the small boat harbor the paving the sewers and sidewalks the special bond election brought another point forcibly to the attention of city officials.
 That is the urgent need for drastic revision and adjustment of the ctys tax roll
 Voter after voter came to the polls yesterday only to discover that though they owned property their names were not on the tax roll This was particularly true in the case of husband and wife owning property jointly But it also revealed that there were a good many property owners who failed to appear on the roll at all; who had been entirely overlooked
 Now that the bonds have been approved, the problem Of setting aside sufficient amount of money each year for retiring them becomes matter of first importance.
 ~ It will be a comparatively easy task without ad- dtona burden the taxpayers if a thorough re- appraisal of property in Juneau is made and all property placed upon the tax roll at fair figure. Yesterdays election is definite proof that such action should be undertaken before another tax roll made up.
 Expression has been voiced by some that in order to meet the bond retirement payments raising of i the present levy will be necessary
 Tn fairness to every taxpayer in Juneau re- appraisal of all property in the city both real and personal should be made first. It is not at all inn probable that such reapprasal would reveal that the present 18-mill levy is sufficient if all property is placed the tax roll at its proper value It may ut- mately be necessary raise the levy to the limit of 20 mills but if the protests received yesterday by i, taxpayers who wanted to vote and couldn't mean anything at all city officials hardly fail to make a reapprasal first before considering additional 2. tax however small
