THE BULLETIN. IRWINTON. GEORGIA. STATE TAX VALUES SHOW DECREASE GEORGIA’S TAX DIGEST FOR 1922 LOWER THAN PRECEDING YEAR STATE NEWS_Of INTEREST Brief News Items Gathered Here And There From All Sections Os The State Atlanta. —Georgia’s tax digest for the present year, completed recently, show a decrease of $83,365,755 under the aggregate values of last year. The total values this year are sl,- 018,845,211. Last year’s total values were $1,102,210,966. Although this year’s decrease is lar ger than last year’s, it is much more uniformly distributed, according to Henry J. Fullbright, state tax commis sioner, who stated that not over fifteen counties this year showed a decrease of 20 per cent, while last year thirty counties showed that much of a de crease. Notwithstanding the loss in revenue that will be caused by the decrease in tax values, it is the opinion of Com missioner Fullbright and Comptroller Wright that the state will be able to make end meet this year, on account of the conservative holding-down of ap propriations by the legislature when it made general appropriations at the 1921 session for the year 1922 and 1923. Another favorable factor will be the revenue from special taxes and the gasoline tax, which are running some what larger than was anticipated. Everybody expected that the tax digest this year would show a loss. Governor Hardwick figured on a loss, and the ways and means committee of the house did fire same, when the gen eral appropriation bill for the years 1922 and 1923 was being made up last year. Commissioner Fullbright estimated last June, and furnished an estimate to the governor, that this year’s digest would not run over one billion dollars. It has actually run some eighteen mil lion dollars above that, as the figures show. Considers Tobacco Warehouse Waycross. —The movement looking towards the erection of a tobacco warehouse in Waycross is gaining ground every day, according to a state ment made by Secretary Tyree of the Chamber of Commerce. The commit tee recently appointed by the chamber of commerce has been studying the proposition, and at a meeting called for at an early date will no doubt adopt some definite policy. An invitation to all the farmers of Ware county to at tend this meeting will be extended by the committee, and it is believed that before another week some definite plan will have been formed. The matter was brought to the attention of the farm ers present at the meeting of the Curb Market association, and the farmers appeared enthusiastic over the propo sition. R. R. Agents Against Reduction Atlanta. —The public service commis sion recently heard arguments by rep resentatives of the railroads against a 10 per cent reduction in the scale of class rates prescribed by the commis sion last April to take effect the first of September. Since the scale was prescribed, the tendency in rates has been downward. The rates on inter state traffic were reduced 10 per cent in mid-summer and the Georgia rates (of the old basis) were similiarly re duced. When the date came on for the new Georgia scale to take effect, the commission asked the railroads to show cause why this scale should not undergo a similar revision downward. Regular Hog Sales In Ware Cout/ty Waycross.—Plans are being worked out through the medium of the coun ty agent’s office for the holding of regular- hog sales in Waycross, com mencing October 1. Dr. Heyde, coun ty agent, reported that the farmers of Ware county are enthusiastic over the prospects for the new market, and determined to make the first market one of the biggest of its kind ever held in the state. Gas Asphyxiates Negro Well Digger Milledgeville.—Green King, negro well digger, died while cleaning out a well near the State sanitarium. King was let down into the well by two other negroes, but before reaching the bottom he same in contact with gas and called to the other to pull him up. He died before he reached the top. Woman Killed As Train Hits Car Brunswick. —Mrs. H. P. Hewitt was Instantly killed and Mr. Hewitt was seriously injured when their automo bile was struck by Atlanta, Birming ham and Atlantic train No. 16, fifteen , miles from here recently. Ben Hill Cotton Exceeds Last Year Fitzgerald.—Reports at local cotton warehouses show that to date more than 3,000 bales of cotton have been stored here, which exceeds last year’s receipts over 2,000 bales. It is esti mated that about half of the crop has been gathered, which would bring this year’s crop to 6,000 hales. Last year this county gathered 3,300 bales. Most . of the farmers are selling their cotton I as soon as they bring it in, and are ! getting satisfactory prices. Members • of the Georgia cotton pool are deliver tng their quota at two warehouses. What Paul Said. St Paul, the apoetle and not tho city, is only an ordinary mortal in the eyes of Billy, age ten.

The fairy tale of Paris belongs to all of. us, in whatever terms it may be told. For some it is Marie An toinette and the Petit Trianon; and, curiously, by comparison with a rather worthless queen, the great war pales. For some It Is Napoleon in his cocked hat and white breeches, and his great tomb, one of the fingertips of Paris. For still more It Is the Bols and the elegance and luxury and beautiful women; and for the rest there Is al ways the particular application—‘the house where Balzac had his printing press, or perhaps only a great stone wall, symbol of the centuries over which a fruit tree blooms, symbol of centuries continually renewed, writes Muriel Harris in the North American Review. Only now and again do we realize that Roman and Frank and Gaul; Catholic and Huguenot; artist, priest and warrior; saint, martyr, philoso pher, mldlnette, have really our ener gies in their grip. Unfair Advantage. “You don’t care to sleep in a hand some mausoleum?" “Not if I have to pay for it myself,” replied Senator Snorthworthy. “A sim ple tombstone, just to keep the record straight, will satisfy me.

A music dealer on East Forty-sec ond street, New York city, has a novel scheme of attracting attention to his photograph and record display, re ports the New York Sun. In the front window he placed a phonograph with the horn flush against the window. In a coal chute cover on the side walk he bored several holes and con cealed another machine beneath the walk.

For some time Mrs. Caraway had been endeavoring to instill into the heart of her youngster, Tommy, aged ten, the sentiment of generosity, which it seemed to her, was not naturally present. Tn this relation she had been especially careful to commend to Tommy’s consideration the son of a poor family in the neighborhood. One day Tommy came home radiant. “Well,” he said to his mother, “I gave that poor boy half of the box of candy you bought for me." The mother also beamed. "You are a dear little boy,” she said. “Was the poor boy grateful?” “Yes, ma’am,” said Tommy; "he was grateful, all right. He came round to the school yard and let me lick him where everybody was looking on.” —Harper’s Magazine. Movie Lore. She had been reading “The Life and Letters of Sir Wilfrid Laurier” and had been enjoying, to the full, ac counts of the thrilling political and historical factions which had been part of the growth of Canada.

He was premier of Canada —he was one of Canada’s most famous men.” "Oh, yes, yes, now I remember. I’ve seen his picture in the movies.” Dissipated Creature.
