I-ong Infirmary committee sent out circular letters to each present patron of the Universi ty. If every father or mother or gunrdian would contribute the sum of five dollars to the Infirmary, $2,500 would be added to the fund.

The city tax hooks for the year 1011 closed last night and practically every citizen in the city has made returns of their personal property. While tlie number making returns jeaterday was no larger than it has averaged for the past few days, it is due to the publicity which has been given tp the change which has brought to the attention of all citi zens the importance of making their returns before the last day. Clerk Wood will be kept busy for the next few weeks transferring the returns from the blanks to the digest and on the morning of April the 16th every taxpayer will be expected to come forward and pay his taxes for the first quarter of the year. How ever, if the tax payer desires to pay the whole amount of his taxes a dis count wil! be allowed, and the full amount for the year will he received. The change in payment of taxes to quarterly payments is a great conven ience to the average tax payer, and the hardship which has been on some to pay the full amount at one time will be relieved by the quarter ly ppyment system.
