Under the law the Lavina Harper estate is subject to an inheritance tax of live per cent, One-half of this tax goes to the state and one-half to the municipality or townrhip in which the deceased lived. In this case the village will get this amount on the entire estate including personal and realty holdings. The estate is appraised at some­ thing- like ¥200,000. Five per cent o f this will be $10,000, the village's share will be from four to Rye thou­ sand. , Several have expressed Themselves *s to how this money should be used, tee was to start proceedings to im­ prove Main Street from- corporation Ime to corporation line. Council would not have-to levy funds for its share. Another was to provide for the boulevard system of electric lights through the business part of town from the railroad to Chillicothe street, South Charleston is prepar­ ing for such an improvement.

But after a period of the .so-called mack raking people began to think along other hues. Wrong doing had been pointed out’ in both the commercial and po­ litical life and hundreds o f organi­ zations sprung up- over the country to-- arouse people and as a result this community spirit has been greatly developed. There is no longer vif- •tue in bigness and prosperity and happiness is not in paying a large bonqs to get some factory. The de­ velopment of individualism, during former days went forward without eyer stopping to Took after the needs „of- those that fell behind. 'People found that-communities were no bet­ ter than the people that made them. As a result these organizations have developed and are continuing to im­ prove the morals, study the economic side o f .public life, consider the wel- - fare *o f human beings, making these centers better places for the train­ ing 5f hoys and girls and attractive and wholesome places for, men and women to live.

The contest in this district for con­ gress between Congressman Fess. who'is seeking his third term, and General J. Warren Keifer of Spring- field, former member of the House and at one time Speaker, promises to wax warm. .General Keifer is a not­ ed constitutional lawyer, a man rec­ ognized for his ability to handle any­ thing he undertakes.

He has heeded to the call in the be­ lief that ft man of practical experi­ ence should he seated in the next House when such grave questions as the Mexican and foreign situations will be up for settlement. The fact that theoretical government has placed the country Where it is today will be argument for General Keifer s nomination and election.
