REPORT OF STATE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION The annual report of the State Board of Equalisation shows a total ?of rotables in this state of $1,949,687,287, whioh is an increase of $106,686,109 : over last year's totals. It slso shows 1 that there has been a general increase in the amount of taxation. The State school tax is $4.96,282.63, ( an increase over last vear of $916.856. 19. The County taxes show an aggregate of $76,783,093 61, an in- . crease over last year of $796,988.1". The local taxes for municipal purposes ' show an azgrecate of $22,452,616 29. : ai. .ncrease of $2,638,571.26. The sver- , age tax rate will be about $1.66 per $100 of valuation, which is an incresse J over last year of about 11 9 cents per ' $100. The State Board of Assessors c m- ' pute the average tax on a slightly 1 different basis from that used by the Board of Equalization, but the result is nearly the same. The fact that the j a verge tax rhte has increased .8 the 1 essential point This will raise the tax rate for railroad property this year nearly 12 points. The total amount raised by taxation in this State is ; $36,168,941.78. The railroad companies are assessed • separately end in two items, one of which is included ia the amount as Li Vimnd for 1 cal uses.

Too many families are large that should b> small and too manv are small tha' should be One of the responsibilities that is placed on parents today is that of educating their children. An education ia due the child. We go so far a.to say it ia due the child even if the father ia required to deprive himself of his luxuries, whatever these ma> be. I We go even further and declare that , lithe parent who for any reason, save I inability to wow or obtain work, fails I to provide his children with a common school education, as deliberately cripples that child as if he had laid its arm on a block and chopped it off with an ax. Recognition of the child's right to an education is now so general that no msn can plead ignorance thereof. The compulsory [education law recognizes the child's right to such training as the schools afford. It is a protec- ' tive law It protects the defenseless against irresponsible parents. It makes criminal the attempt to escape one of ' the certain consqeuences of parenthood. The law should be as rigidly enforced as any otber criminal statute.— Woman '6 National Daily.
