"The tax collector will get you, it

for some ot the business men of the t,
city to remember if they do not want ,
to pile up a lot ot trouble for them
selves. And it is because their occu

Under the ordinance recently pas
sed by tlie-city council, and which b
came effective July 1, the occupation. .
tax muk be paid to the city treasur
er. This has been done in a large
number of instances, but many ot
the business and professional men
have failed to do so, and these are
now liable to the penalty provided in
the ordinance. The city treasurer."
