SEVENTEEN MARION COUNTY FARMERS ®SEEK TAX REFUND Suits Fifed Protest Horizontal Increases Ordered by State Tax Board. Claims by seventeen Marion County farmers for refund of taxes paid in 1919-1921 on the fifty per cent horizontal increase ordered by the State rmr board were in the hands of the county commissioners today. Claims total $6,329.52. ranging from *l.lOO to $6.56. They were filed by William Bosson. president of the Marion County Farm Bureau, who received a refund from the county this month, following the decision of the Supreme Court that the increase in rax valuations ordered in 1919 was illegal. Court \<rion Uncertain County commissioners said they did not know whether the claims would be granted without further court action. At the same time County Attorney John Ruelhams filed answers to five suits in Circuit Court, appealed from the hoard of commissioners two years ago when the hoard refused to allow the claims at a hearing held before the outcome of the Bosson suit in the Supreme Court. The answers charge that the horizontal increase in valu•n prevented an increase in tax __s, and that Kingan & Cos., one of the plaintiffs, failed to list taxable property valued at $5,000,000. Bosson Makes Statement “All that has nothing to do with the fact that this money was collected illegally, the Supreme Court says, and the increase went only on farm lands, town lots, improvements ;uid personal property, leaving out corporations, public utilities, mortgages, notes and railroads." said Bosson.

More than a score of prelates of the Episcopal Church, many of them consecrated by Bishop Tuttle, will attend the services The solemn ritual of the prayer book will be read. Although the title of “presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church in America’’ falls automatically upon the Rev. Charles Garrett, Dallas.

THE GARDEN OF HUMAN In Indianapolis The hitman mind is still an interesting mystery. We know Little about the motor which generattfs the power that runs our dreams and desires. The billions of wants that creep into our minds is the excuse for that incessant whir of the world’s machinery. It’s just a part of nature to want'what we do not have or swap what we have for something more desirable. Each want is a tiny seed —to bear fruit like other seeds, must be planted in the field of supply. Can you conceive of a greater garden spot of supply than the pages of a newspaper which carry a “want” directly to the brain center of thousands and thousands of people each day? Can there be any better, virgin, “bottom blackland” soil in which to plant “want” seeds, in the shape of a few lines under proper classification, than a powerful newspaper? It doesn’t matter whether the want is to buy, sell, rent or exchange a thing; or to find employment or help RESULTS WILL SPRING UP OYER NIGHT.
