This does not apply to necessary funds to meet p bonded indebtedness and. fixed Inter-, est charges. The tax limitation amendment will be binding on the levies for 1917 taxes.

DON'T be an echo; the world Is full of them. They reverberate through f. every valley and nook. They are monotonous and Jar the ear drums when they' rail to pass without attracting notice. It is easy to become a bromide. Such persons lack originality. Tou always know what they are going to say before they open their mouths. They do expected things; they always copy after the great majority. Through their Inherent ambition to follow fashions In dress, women are inclined to become "copy-cats." as the children call them. It is their desire to be uD-to-date in questions of dress. This is a laudable ambition. I believe in women making the best possible ap nearance. Regardless of what the styles are there Is always a posaibil- 1 itv for a touch of originality. The twist of a ribbon, the line of a aklrt or the cut or. a siceve may ds tne touch that will remove the garment or hat from the echo class. Life is full of opportunities for women who desire to create definite and individual positions .for them selves. The easy way Is o Join the chorus of echoes; it takes no thought to follow the crowd. Imitations are always cheap and easy to procure. Some wonderful copies of Rembrandt have been exhibited, but the originals still command the highest prices. It is all' right to follow the example of. others, but the world would not prog ress far If only beaten paths were followed. . V ." j ' One reason for my objection to the use of slang is that it invariably sug gests a lack of . opportunity and thought. Few persons originate new expressions and . give words new definitions. Users of slang pick up common expressions and words and so generally- , apply them -that they become monotonous. " If you do not have the wit to originate expressive sentences ' and words, do not b satisfied with mouthing " those that have passed, over thousands of tongues. : The hostess who injects a little originality into her entertainments delights her circle- of acquaintances.

"Twice during tha unoffical com putation .yesterday In California mis takes in addition were announced from that state, substantially chang ing figures previously given. It is common experience that the result of the official count almost always varies from the returns first announoed. "Where the vote is as close as that reported in several states it may well be that material changes will result from the official count. We owe It to the country to take all necessary steps to see that an exact and honest count of these votes is made.
