been on account of the lack of it
The matter was brought before
the high school Monday morning
and S40 was pledged in a few min
utes. Entertainments will be given
trom time to time to help pay for
it, and it is hoped that all patrons
of the school will give the cause

The first entertainment for this
cause will be given at the opera

JASPER, MISSOURI
Both games were rougher than
they ought to have been on account
of the releree being a little slow.
Whoever appointed Sam Tallman
referee of the girls' game thought
they were making him the "goat, '
but tam seemed right at home in
the mtlec played no favorites, and
when some pretty face was turned
toward him with stormv weather
signals on it he gave her a smile
umj let it go at that
1 Friday night Sarcoxie is expect
ed, and as Jasper beat Sarcoxie in
their own town two weeks ago the
visitors will try hard to win.
There will be a program of mu
sic, declamations, and a debate in
connection with the game Friday
night, and the proceeds will go to
ward the new piano for the high
scnool.

Pay Your Taxes.
A fine new cement bridge, 8 feet
by nearly 30, over the ravine on
East Grand avenue at Fourth street
was opened to the public this week
and is proving a splendid improve
ment. Mayor Spaid informs the
Neab that the county court hns
promised another good bridge on
Grand avenue a few blocks east of
the one just finished. He says al
so that taxpayers should pay their
taxes at once so that the town
may have money to pay its part
of the expenses incidental to these
improvements. There will be
somc filling and grading to do on
u est Grand at the railroad cross
ing as soon as the depot is moved
and the tracks and switches put
in shape.
In order that the city may not
be embarrased by a lack of funds
in these matter", citizens should
pay their taxes now and enable
the authorities to get this work
out of the way by the time bad
weather sets in.
