think a great deal of Denny. He's

am guite sure-—though maybe
not as sure as I thought I was—
that I shall never be in love with
anyone again. I would have to
think 2 long while before I'd sur
render my independence, so hard
won.”
Yes, that was the ‘certain
‘something” that Madeline had: an
independence.
- “Is this a Ladies’ Maid Meet
ung,")’ Barry asked, coming in with
a bowl of punch.
“We were having a meeting,”
Madeline said, “of the Mutual Ad
miration Society. You are the oniy
member ol your sex of whom we
might make an exception. Shall
we pledge him, Gaynel?”
Gaynel said the vote was unani-~
mous. But Madeline’s tone had
aroused her attention, She had
spoken lightly, but there was an
undercurrent, like the depth of
Madeline’s personality beneath
the glamorous surface.
She’s in love with Bairy! Gay
nel thought, amazed. He was the
one man for whom that hard-won
independence might be surren
dered. Hadn’t Madeline even said
that she had thought she would
never fall in love again, but that
now she was not so certain? It
was not amazing, really, Mede
line and Barry would be eminent
ly suited in every way.

granted he wanted to marry Gay

On Saturday came the special
train that brings ts hilarious
load of passengers from Detroit.
The ice rink was crowded with
skaters, the eating places and
shelters packed.
It looked like a gay cornival. It
was so festive and gay that it
seemed almost unreal. So that
Gaynel, skating with Barry, to
ward the end of the afternoon,
was not as taken back with the
unreality of suddenly corming face
to face with Bessie Carter and
Fritz.
Her heart did a somersault, nat
urally, but she was surprised to
find how cool and collected her
voice sqQunded, as they all ex
changed greetings.
Bessie, with her giit freckles,
looked very smart in her green
skiing costume; sport togs suited,
and emphasized, her stieamlined
figure. She looked very sure of
herself and she clung cnto Fritz's
arm in a way that suggested not
only support, but possession.
*lt "~ was “tun? Bessie said:
“There was plenty of noise, and
clowning, and refreshments.
We've been having fun ever since
Fritz came back two wecks ago—
haven’'t we, Fritz darling?” Her
tone and her look were possessive,
too.
Fritz agreed that fun was what
they had been having, his eyes
looking into Gaynel’s dark ones
a brief, but significent, moment.
Gaynel returned his lcok stead
ily. He hadn’t lost much time.
Hadn't he told her that Bessie,
and he- gilt freckles, might get
him on the rebound? Didn’t Bes
sie always get what she went af
ter? He had been home two weeks,
and never called her. Gaynel said,
lightly, her hold tigatening on
Barry’s arm, “Nice to have seen
you. Don’t let us interrupt that
fun—any longer.” She skated on;
Barry had to lengthen his stride
to keep up with her.

LET'S KEEP THE RECORDS STRAIGHT
What difference does it make whether your tax rate is 7, 17, or
27 mills when your overall payments are more? The actual amount
of taxes paid is what counts, not the rate at which they are paid
on any one item,
If your taxes haven't been raised, how do you account for the
increases in tax collections over the past two years and nine
months? In 1947, total tax receipts amounted to $513,747.10. in
1948, the figure jumps to $641,675.08, an increase of $127,-
927.98. For the first nine months of this year, collections have
amounted to $552,132.22, an increase of $38,658.12 over the en
tire receipts of 1947,
Where did this increase come from?
" It came from increased zssessments of your household effects
and automobiles; from your business licenses; from every imagin
able kind of nuisance tax, including a CGARBAGE tax, and from in
creased interest and fi fas. :
That garbage tax was stopped by a Court injunction, or it would
appear on your 1949 assessments. Many people did not pay it
even when billed. Were you one of the ‘“unfortunates’” who did?
Or were you included in the $6,528.58 which is shown on the 1948
audit as uncollected? If you paid, where is your refund? TAN Fig
ures Quoted Were Taken From Official City Audits)
In addition to the above, an increase of over 50% was proposed
on your ad valorem taxes for 1949. A committee of citizens, in
cluding the tax assessors themselves fought and defeated this
plan, saving you from paying even more taxes on your home, house
hoid goods, and automobiles.

Leprechaun Coiffure . . . That
favorite of teen-agers, hair-dress
er Victor Vito, has come up with
a brand new hairdo, now- being
worn on Fifth Avenue by stylish
school girls. It is close cropped
and has such a pixie look he has
named it “Leprechaun.” The kids
love it because it requires no
permanent, can be worn without
a hat, pins, combs, to keep it
smooth. It is short all over, about
an inch-and-a-half in back and
has hair line bangs. When you
wash it, advises Victor, brush the
back hair up so that when it dries
it will dovetail together. You'll
look faun-like in this new young
hair-do.

the most delightful ideas for teen=
agers is “My Private Life” (Lan=

book by Polly Webster, It is a
book any teen-age girl would en
joy owning to record her personal
story of the joys and triumphs of
the happy teen years. It is a
diary, and yet it is not a diary,
perfect camouflage for the girl
who would not like to be accused
of keeping one, but would iike to
record fun and finances. There
are pages for career plans, big
dates and parties, autograph col
lections, word pictures and snap
shots of friends. Records of
beauty and health, personality
tests, There are places to list fav
orite radio and movie stars, talk
about boy friends and girl friends,
pen pals, memory jogs such as
birthdays and anniversaries. It is
indeed a compact little package,
a gift that will please any young
girl, written by a mother for her
own teen-ager. It is delightfully
illustrated by Martha Wheeler.
A gift for that air-minded young
‘man is Seth Babits “Opportuni=-

cational Guidance Manuals. Seth
covers the air whether you want
to know about the Wright Broth

WHO FOOTS THE PAVING BILLS?
Continued references to an extensive paving program in Athens
raise the question of who pays for that paving, and who should get
credit for it.
A revolving fund was set up by the Council to begin this paving
¢ project before World War 11. Many streets were already paved
before the war shut off the supply of materials and labor and fore
ed a temporary hait to the project. As soon as materials and labor
were again available, work was immediately started on other
streets.
Furthermore, as soon as it was noted that payment for paving
street intersections was eating into the fund, the Council at that
time passed a bill allotting money from the general funds to re
place these payments and keep the revolving fund intact.
YOU, the property owners pay the rest. A street is not paved
until a majority of abutting property owners have agreed to pay
the assessments for said paving. Upon completion, these property
owners are billed with the cost of paving according to the extent
of their holdings, and are expected to pay in cash, or through a
city-operated installment plan at 7% interest.
Consequently, the citizens of Athens are paying for their paving
100% . What is not paid directly from the pockets of the property
owners, is being paid by all of us in the form of various taxes which
go into the generai funds from which the balance is paid.
We believe in giving credit where credit is due. The above facts
may be checked against the minutes of former Council meetings,
or by merely asking your previous or present Councilmen, who are
due the credit.

thereby putting a strain on the

as you pull your stockings up to

the waist, reaching both hands
under the dress, one on either side

holding your leg straight.
