Dnrine the past session, which
ended without any tax reform
bieasun being enacted. Governor
Walker adopted a policy of giving
the assembly tho information in his
pCifsession and leavln gthe selec
tion of a new system of taxation to
the body. It was not the duty of
the governor to frame a new set
of tax laws for the state he said.
“The program adopted by the
people calls for enactment of a tax
which will take the lpace
of the tax equalization law by forc
ing a fair share, of the harden of
expense of the government upon a
class of property owners who have
hitherto escaped taxation—the
owners of intangible property,” the
governor asserted.
“1. The proceeds of a tax of In-
“2. Savings by reducing expense
of government.
“3. Providing teeth for the tax
laws and practical' machinery for
systematic and business-like en

Concerning the present genera’
tendency of migration from rura’
communities to the larger cities
the report asks If the population
centers attract “the superior, in
telligent and able bodied , young
people from tho farms, or the In
ferior”?
“If tho superior stocks are beinr
driven off by present tendencies
to the sterile life of city commerce
this constituted a dysgenlc drain
upon the population." the repor*
say*. “It Is estimated that In four
generations the 500 percent of thr
present population which is on the
farms tends to become 88 per Cool
of the toial stock.” It then |s
pointed ogt that If these 4wo ten*
dicles are demonstarted, by t re
search to be continually nperntiv
the result would be that close t*
300 out of every 1,000 of Ameri
can population four generations
hence would be of the stock of the
lower mental and physical types ol
the present tlnre.
Scouring the segregation of cer
tain classes, “such as the crimi
nal defective” should receive speci
al emphasis front the outset, th» i
committee suggests. Farm colo
nles for the segregated clnsses arr
urged. In such colonies sterilize*'
people would live virtually norma’
* under semi-institutionnl <
but would not burden society with

We were awakened Saturday
morning by the rising bell nnd ths
dripping of the rain from the trees
On account of the dampness wt
were unable to take the “up-settlnr

have a fierce appetite for break

Home of our mothers ought to be
up here to see the way we clear
up before Inspection. Honestly
they will have a hard time keep

pieces of paper that can hardly b4
seen with a magnifying glass.
We spent general athletics
picking up paper etc. We just
can’t’ remember not to drop candy
paper.
The swim In the lake was fine
and we had a fine time trying tc
push Walter although It ended with
us going off. We played follow
the lender and king of the bridge
We left for Rock mountain about
three-thirty and reached there at
4::30, about half way up the moun
tain It began to rain nnd soon it
was pouring. The rain soon
stopped after we reached the tor
of the mountain where we stopped
a. few- minutes to watch the lovely
view. Mr. Forbes soon had
hiking on to keep us from gettlnr
wot. We stopped nt Tallulah Fall
and bought out the Ice cream
stand’s supply nnd cold drinks. Af
ter putting on dry clothes when
we reached camp we had a fine
supper.
Mr. Forbes gave us a good talk
nt vespers nnd then the girls whr
were not able to go on the hiker
to Rock mountain on account
sprojned ankles, etc., gave u*
