NOTICE!
To Delinquent Tax Payers
The 1937 tax collection law provides for the
remission of interest on delinquent taxes for the
year 1934 and prior years under certain circum­
stances. To secure remission of interest on the
taxes for those years it is necessary that the tax
for 1937 and not less than one quarter of the tax
of the earliest year or years mentioned above be
paid during the current month. Since the 1937
law contemplates payment of delinquent taxes
for the year 1934 and prior years in accordance
with the 1935 act, at least one half of the tax of
the earliest year of delinquency in addition to
the current tax should have been paid on Decem­
ber 31st to avoid interest on delinquent taxes for
the year 1934 and prior years during the year
1938.
If the legal requirements respecting the
payment of delinquent taxes for the year 1934
and prior years are not met, interest on one half
of the tax for the year of the earliest delin­
quency must be charged during the year 1938.
To January 15, 1938, the interest rates on
those years are as follows
1930 and prior years ...................36%%
1931
1932
.......................
46
......................................................... 38%
1934 .......................................................29% %

You’re Entitled To a
BARGAIN, Too!
You're entitled to take advantage of a bargain that so
many of your friends and neighbors are now enjoying —
the exceptionally low electric rate that you would earn
as you increase your use of electric service.
The rates you pay for electricity drop as you use
more — much like the price of canned foods is less in
dozen lots than it is by the single can.
So, your rates "step down" for each additional quantity
of kilowatt hours you use.
And in the same way, if you stop using an appliance
— an electric range or your lights or your water
heater — the saving you make is on the lowest rate.
And you lose the best part of your bargain in electric
rates!
The persons we serve, being smart buyers, use more elec­
tric service than almost any other group in the United
States. In that way, they reduce their average rates —
and enjoy electricity at a cost that is among the lowest
in the nation.
