TaX Collector’s Notice,
I have an order from Comp
troller General Wm. A. Wright
before me that a remittur has
been handed down and that the
decision has been made a judg
ment of the lower court. I am,
therefore, instructed to make
collections of special taxef at
once for the years 1922 and 1923
on retail cigars dealers to the a
mount of $5.00 for each year,
1922 and 1923, making separate
reports for the collections for
1922 taxes and 1923 taxes.
Also, I desire to state that un
der the law any lady that has
been registered can have her
name stricken from the registra
tion book by applying to me in
person, or by notifying me in
writing with her name signed to
it that she desires her name
stricken from the registration
book, I and strike it off, thus re
lieving her of the *l.OO poll tax
this fall.
If this is not done the law re
quires me to make a ticket of
$l.OO poll tax this fall, and so on
every year as long as her name
remains on the registration book.
Hoping this will explain mat
ters and relieve me of all blame,
I remain,
Your friend and servant,
W. A. Thally, T.C,
P. S,—l will be at my office at

Broughton G. Durham, son of
f. B. Durham, was the only boy
'rom Gumming at the Georgia
Tech last year. Next fall he will
be a Sophomore in the Mechani
cal Engineering department He
is a graduate of the Cumming
High School.
While Georgia needs many
more young |men with this type
of training for tne development
of her industries the school of
Commerce, in common with all
other departments at Tech has
been handicapped because of lack
of funds with which to meet the
demandsof increased enrollment
Unless the present appropriate s
are increased by the legislature
it will be necessary that several
hundred appßants for admission
to the freshman class be turned
away next fall. It is hoped in
any event, to provide classroom
accommodation for all advanced
studedts
