C ou. ty will be given an opportunity
to express their wishes in the matter
of floating bonds for the purpose of
erecting a new court house in and

Correction
The Herald last week attempted to
show the relative cost of a new
building to tax payers of the county
upon an estimated expenditure of
*84 000, but have since found that we
were entirely too liberal in our fig
ures, that is in stating that a 1 1-2
mill levy would be required to finance
the proposition. It has since been
clearly shown to us by the commis
sioners that instead of the 1 1-2 mill
levy only 1 mill levy, or $1.00 on the
SI,000 valuation instead 1 of $1.50
would be necessary to retire the
lj °Of S the total cost of $84,000 Taylor
county would have to raise only $20,-
000 the remaining $64,000 would
come from the government through
the CWA. 1
Such an opportunity will perhaps
not be offered us again in a life-time
L . r ,d every citizen should rejoice, es
pecially since it supplies a long felt
need.

victories to their growing list last
week. Wednesday night they defeated
the Medical Corps from Fort. Penning
by the one sided score of 69 to 26,
and Saturday night Ellaville was de
feated 74-29. The Henning game was
loosely played throughout, with the
local boys gathering 31 of their
points in the first quarter. Thornton
was high point man with 18 points
and Butler was a close second wit 17.
Cummins was best for the soldiers .
In the Ellaville game Thornton was
again high point man, making 27
points; with Hallman and Ma: ,ar
making 17 and 13 respectively.

FORT VALLEYAN SUICIDES
What is expected to be one of the
most amusL.g, entertaining, laugh
making comical hits of tne season
will transpire Monday evening, Jan.
28 dt the Butler gymnasium. This
rollocking, rioting, rip-roaru.g revo-
lutinoary entertainment will be in the
form of an alleged basketball game
between the otneers of Camp 1430
CCC and the cooks, more often re.
ferred to as slum dispensers.
This game will be played as a pre
liminary before the regular scheduled
game between the fast Ideal high
school quintet ar.d the Camp 1430
Junior basketball floorwalkers. The
Bneup of the officers’ team will
elude such national known basketball
players as Lieut. J. G. Cocke 1 who
holds the world’s record in not mak
ing a basket in 110 attempts; Lieut.
Rip J. E. Rohrer who holds the dis
tinction of being the only basketball
player where the opposition can shoot
baskets between his underpinning;
“Lieut.” Maggie Perry Hill who alone
can miss more baskets than the rest
of the team; “Major” Ophelia Guy
Carmichael who has the record of be
ing able to make more baskets by
kicking the ball than by the use of
arms and hands and last but not least
Capt. “Old Man” Meyer, who will
probably have to do all the shooting
and defending the entire team.
This game is the charitable game
to be held in conjunction with the
national movement in honoring Presi
dent Roosevelt’s birthday and to
raise an endowment for the Warm
Springs foundation. An admission of
25c will be charged everyone; the en
tire proceeds will be forwarded to

him the future was so full of promise

upon investigation they found lying
in a pool of blood of his own body the

Funeral services were held at the
