. — | Akenp on many miles and this will to a great extent make up for the loss of the automobile tax. It's up to the commission. One of the defenses being put up tor the new tax law is the fact that you can now have a SI,OOO mortgage exemption in place of a S7OO reduction from your valuation provided you have a mortgage on your property for twice the amount. It sounds good but the only trouble is that it doesn’t save you any money over the old law, in fact it's a money loser. For instance under the old valuation' and rate an exemption of S7OO at the city rate $5.47. reduced your taxes $35.29 while with the new valuation J and rate of $2.00 your total taxes are cut but $20.00. Consequently you are $15.29 worse off under the new, law than you were tinder the old so far as exemption is concerned and i the boost on the rest of your proper-j tv adds to your overhead. We are still looking for sort.- benefits from I this much talked of tax law. If you. find any let us know. DRESS REHEARSAL FOR “OH.

MANY ATTEND MEETING. The tabernacle meetings at Pleasant Mills are proving a great success. Interest is growing by leaps and bounds. There has been a constant increase in attendance and collections. Sunday evening was the climax of the week with a full house and ushers ! carrying in extra seats.

He has lived with men who needed religion sorely and found it. He is a cleau- * cut, powerful preacher.
