The Enterprise is in possession of n authorized copy of the budget for Marion county, which, compared with, tho budget sub mitted recently to tho people of Clackamas county, shines like a summer sun. The county court of Marion went to work seriously and conscientiously to prepare a budget which is comprohenelve, plain and complete, and is attested as to Its correctness by the county clerk of our near neighbor to the south. In the Marion budget there ore no garbled figures. - The adding machine operator In Marion Is ready to prove his calculations. The budget carries a tabulation of the expenses and obligations, in cluding bond payments, both prin cipal nnd interest, nnd ie a docu ment which the taxpayer may read and study with some intelligence. Under the head of "probable re ceipts' appears an item of $12,000 from interest on county deposits and licenses paid the county treas urer. In the Clackamas budget this Item does not appear. Marion lists an item of $4000 from fines and licensee from all sources. -In this county we receive n consider able sum from the same sources, but the budget does not mention it. There is a little item of $150 n the Marion budget from sales of agricultural products, rock, junk and miscellaneous. Presumably we have nothing to sell In Clack amas. The estimated amount of etnte tax is listed In the Marlon budget. It Is a blank In our own budget, al though the estimated figures were available. Marion estimates re ceipts of $78,000 from tbe suite on account of automobile licenses. In Clackamas wc eh all probably re ceive $05,000, but the budget is silent about it. The stale of Ore gdn will pay Marion county next year $70,000 for market roads, but down here we g"et nothing at all according to our budget, although we have reason to believe our re eelpto from that source will ap proximate $05,000. According to the Marion budget there was cash on hand of $133,903.53 as of No vember 1, but it appears our own treasury is empty, for the taxpay ers are not advised that we have any money at all. So it goes. We have placed the Marion budget in our files, and it nestles clogs to the Clackamas budget. Wc hope one will not disturb the other. In any case, our file is fireproof as well at sound proof. According to Father Maurice Bcckott, a priest-scientist in Lon don, there is a possibility that all lighting and heating, and evun cooking, will be done by radio. He has been successful in sending power by radio over a distance ot 10 feet. . K!B AND Dili OFFER MUSICAL Important and delightful Is the announcement made by Manager Holt of the Hoilig theater that Kolb & Dill, two names synony mous with laughter, will appear here for one night only, on Decern' her 30, in their latest fun concoc tion, "Fair O' Fools. " The play is a new musical comedy from tho pen oi John Emerson and Anita Loos, with a lilting musical setting by Arthur Freed. An ever welcome Kolb and Dill chorus, an array of. beauty, talent and captivating dance, the whole flanked by orchestral strains which will live long in memory are elements which combine in making "Pair O Fools ' the hit of a decade. In addition to the sweet voices In the cast of principals, the com pany offers tbe Cunningham dancing troupe, twelve bits of youth, grace and beauty without peer On Broadway. The most mod ern dances, Including the much discussed Charleston and a toe dance novel In the extreme are in the repertoire of this ycar'sKolb and Dill girls. 'Pair O' Fools" is far from plot less, as run many musical comedies but provides a laugh-punctuated story which involves the two prin cipal comedians in a maze ot trou ble by the time the climax is reached. Kolb as Andy Simmons, a big lumberman and Dill as Rudy Valentine, some more lumberman, have roles which fit them to per fection, according to those who have seen this big hit. The costuming, executed by noted Hollywood modiste who has been responsible for some of the most startling creations displnyetl by screen stars, surpasses anything offered by a Kolb & Dill produc tion. Scots are going exceptional ly well, states Manager Holt. These two tsars always play to ca pacity houses and thoeo who want to se them are given a warning to get there early. process, aud you will get better results than with the dangerous open flame. "A proper building code, suit able for the city lh which it oper ates, will do much towurd prevent ing fireB and reducing the lire loss ratio. Too many places try to 'rock along' with antiquated speci mepttf, with lax enforcement or the inadequate and ancient re quirements. "To be modern, use asbestob flakes about the Christmas trees, not cotton, and specially prepared and approved electric lighting ef fects instead of the deadly candle which has cost entirely too many human lives In the past. Llkewlso avoid fireworks at the yuletlde. There is too much death and de struction in them to run the risk of their use: their record of the past Is too alarming. Spark ere? Yes, they are dangerous too." STUDEBAKER CONTRACTS COOPERATIVE INSURANCE South Bend, Intl., Dec. 26. (A P.)
