For years the ef- forts In this line bay* been haphasard. Growing needs have demanded mora efficient care, and to effect this the Glencoe Relief and Aid society has hA«n oraanlsed. The Object. The object of this society is to aid such of the residents of Glencoe who through sickness or other misfortune require temporary assistance. Needs of this character are to be reported to the president of the society in order to prevent neglect or duplication and that there may be a centralized source of information. The only source of revenue to carry on this charitable work will be the voluntary offerings of money, clothing, or supplies. Any person who don tributes annually any sum of money is considered a member of the society and will be privileged to cast a vote at the yearly meeting which will be held on the third Monday In October There !â-  more need In Glencoe for this sort of work than la generally known. Since the temporary organ' ization of the society last December cases have been reported which have necessitated an expenditure of about one hundred dollars. Officers and Committees. The following officers and commit tees have been chosen: President, Mrs. William H. Field; vice-president. Mrs. W. JL Fox; secretary. Miss Emma Power; treasurer, Mra. Freder- ick W. Smith. The visiting committee Is composed of the following mem hers: Mra. Albert Dennis, Mrs. H. G. Chamberlin, Mrs. W. H. Field and Mrs W. A. Fox. Mra. A. W. Storms and Mrs. Don E.

Culver has charge of the old clothes sale com mlttee. Dr. Culver will receive and distribute old clothing, selling the arti- cles at a nominal price, wherever pos- sible. The money received will go into the general fund of the society. COLLECTOR DOES WELL FOR LENGTH OF TIME Makes Good Showing for Only 30 Days of Work on Tax Schedules. ihe New Trier Township Collector eporte a collection of $180,000 this year as against a collection of $iS3,- 771.94 last year. "In view of the tightness of money i am not disappointed, though 1 should have liked to tip the 1200,000 mark,' said Hoyt King, the collector. "It is unfortunate that the County Clerk did not turn my tax" collection books over to me until forty days after the legal time. This gave me only thirty business days to make the collection. The total levy waa nearly half a million. The assistance of the Wilmette Exchange State Bank made possible a systematic, accurate hand- ling of the work, and a daily balanc- ing of the books. "Much complaint Is made of the as- sessment, but an assessment is not too high it the tax amounts to about one per cent, of the value of the prop- erty. As the assessments are made very low, the rate la necessarily high. We pay on each one dollar as toiiows: in Wilmette, 9.90 cents; In Kenii- worth, 10.05 cents; in Wlnnetka, 9.69 cents; in Glencoe, 10.54 cents. "So if the rate Is levied against one- tenth the value, the tax is the same as one per cent, on the full value. In other words a $10,000 home will be assessed $3,000, the rate figured against one-third of that, or $1,000, at ten cents on dollar, the tax will be $100. "This method of holding down the values saves Mew Trier Township from paying more than its share on the rate levied by the State, County and Sanitary District. If all our taxes were spent in New Trier Township it would make little difference now we arrived at the amount "The assessor on account of delay In getting his books Is limited to about thirty days to make a valuation MIIIIIIIIIHIIMl WiiafPeopleAreOoiRg; il WlflMtkS Mba Jessie DeLange returned Sat- urday from a six weeks' stay at mi oxl.
