Board Makes Proposition on Property At Metamora, Mexico,
A thorough investigation of (he comparative salaries of missionaries in ill departments, preparatory to the rdering of a 10 per cent increase was ordered by the 'American Friends Hoard of Missions at its regular session today. The question was broached in the Cuban report where it was advocated that an increase be granted the Cuban rnissonaries. Upon vote it was decided to adopt the report for the increase but later it was reconsidered and the committee appointed. The committee will report to the next year's board meeting. It was decided to offer the property and work of the Friends mission at Metamora, Mex., to the Presbyterians, if suitable settlement can be effected. At the present the Friends school and :hurch is working in the district which is being thoroughly covered by the Presbyterian church. Should a settlement be effected the Friends will concentrate their efforts in the other fields. Overtures are already being made with the Southern Presbyterian Board and an answer is awaited concerning theadvisability of the abandonment of the Metamora field. The Board, however, sanctioned any action that might he done to effect a settlement. Expenditure $58,000. The budget as formulated by the board results in an expenditure totaling about $58,000. This amount represents the proposed expenditure for new buildings, at the mission schools, salaries for missionaries and general current expenses. The report of the budget committee shows that the income from various sources totals $46,300 and a field income of $12,000. The expenditures as itemized for the various fields are: Africa, $9,000; Cuba, $10,000; Jamaica, $7,000; Mexico, $16,000; administration, $3,000, and field work, $12,000. The report of the Mexicanfield is incomplete as the missionaries from the two Friends provinces at Victoria have not appeared, and no communications have been received. It is understood that they were warned by the United States consul to leave the country, but refused to do so owing to the mutual disposition of the natives to the missionaries. Want Small Churches. A communication from the native Friends church at . Victoria, Mexico, brings to the board the proposition in
which the natives desire to take full itharge of the work in the surrounding territory and place native ministers in the field. They propose to establish a number pf small district churches which are to be visited every two weeks. They ask the aid of the American board for the first three years, believing that after that time they will be capable of sustaining the churches without American financial aid. After a spirited discussion the proposition was accepted and definite arrangements for the establishment of the extension work are to be made by a special committee. The appropriation of $25,000 for a new high school building in Cuba was ratified by the board. There is no no high school in the island at this particular time, although the Baptists are planning the construction of a high school. There are many grade schools in the province, but no high schools. The matter of location for the building was referred to the Cuban committee. Committee Walts. The revolutionary conditions in Mexico are presenting a puzzling proposition to the Mexican committee, as it is difficult to recommend just what action should be taken. There had been some talk of completely abandoning the territory infested by the filibusters, but as no official communication has been received from the missionaries in that country, the committee at this time is undecided as to what course to pursue. As a step toward co-operation with the other misionary interests in Mexico, the board authorized the abandonment of a missionary publication of the Friends in Mexico and the cooperation with a native publication, in which all denominations will be represented. The magazne is printed in Spanish. It was proposed at a former meeting that an assistane secretary be appointed to aid General Secretary Tebbetrs in the home offices in this city. The addition to the staff would make it possible for Secretary Tebbetts to devote a part of the time visiting the various yearly meetings. The question will come up before tonight's session of the board. The Richmond Friends will tender a reception to the visiting members tonight at the South Kighth Street church. The hours of 7 to S have been selected. Tomorrow's work will round out the year's business. A few important matters are to come before the board in addition to unfinished business.

The written opinion of the stare board of accounts on the controversy existing over the working out of road tax in road districts and as to whether real and personal tax can be worked out was received by Treasurer Chamness today. The opinion sent by Gilbert H. Hendren is:
"That no individual taxpayers is en- Reading ....... titled to work out road taxes in any ; Southern Pacific
This does not relate to road districts nor does it allow the working out of $20 on real estate and $20 on personal property. $20 is the total sum for which any taxpayer as stated above, may be given credit on the tax duplicate of the county treasurer. The
above views are concurred in by Attorney General Hnnan." Mr. Chamness believes the opinion settled conclusively the payment of taxes by county land owners and tax pavers. " He will follow out the instructions of the state board of accounts which previously notified him that he will be held responsible for any credit given a farmer above $20 in one township.

High School Seniors to Give Banquet Thursday.
BODIES OF SOLDIERS SHIPPED TO HOMES
The seniors of the high school will give a spread in the gymnasium Thursday evening. The hours will be from 5 until 7:30 o'clock. This will mark the opening of tne social season instead of the Hallowe'en party as in former years. A large crowd of students is expected to enjoy the entertainment planned by the committee composed of Mary Converse, chairman, Lawrence Jessup, and Katherine Broderick. Games, music and different contests probably will feature the evening's program. This will be one of the many parties intended to break the monotony of the winter season of the school, as the entertainment committee has planned to have a great deal of social iife among the pupils this semester. The skate committee has secured the Coliseum for the evening of November 21 to give a class skate. There were several skating parties given last term.

The foreclosure of a chattel mortgage on crops, entered into before the seed for the crops were sown, is asked by Charles W. Bundy in a complaint filed in circuit court today against Theodore L. Green. Green leased a fifty acre farm belonging to Bundy for the year at $310 promising to pay the amount by August, 1913, and in January giving a chattel mortgage for the amount on the crops he expected to raise. There is a balance of $225 due, including attorneys fees. The lessee of the farm paid the owner $100 he realized from the sale of eleven acres of rye and ten acres of wheat. Standing on the farm to be gathered are seventeen acres of corn, twelve acres of wheat, six acres of hay and two acres of potatoes, valued altogether at $177. George M. Minors complained against Jessie M. and Charles W. Bateman and asked the court that a mechanics lean of $100 be foreclosed.
Unless the stage in the auditorium of the high "school is enlarged there will be no concerts of the school orchestra as planned by Professor R. C. Sloane, supervisor of music in the schools this winter. The present stage is entirely too small to accommodate the orchestra of over sixty pieces as a floor space of nine square feet bhould be alloted to each player. The rehearsals are held, at this time, in the space just in front of the stage. With an arrangement like this it is impossible to get the best results from the orchestra. Professor Sloane has brought the matter before the school board but, as yet, nothing has been decided upon. If the platform will not be permanently enlarged, Sloane would like to have a temporary platform built in connection with the one now used. This plan, he says, is one successfully followed by several schools of the state for emergencies. Concerts in which the orchestra and chorus furnish all the music several times during the school year seem to be what the patrons of the school desire. These would be held apart from the May Festival. It is hoped that such concerts may "be given as the music furnished by the orchestra is always thoroughly enjoyed.
