Mr. and Mrs, Griffin were happy to be in Marion and they prom ' ised to come again and bring their two boys, that were left with friends in Lebanon, this time. Mr. Griffin has met with great success in Lebanon, over 150 having been added to his church, which now numbers above 600 members. His Sunday evening au- ' I diences range from 700 to 1,200, not I including those who hear his sermons by radio and telephone. They expect to reach Lebanon this Thursday, after a nabsence of three weeks, their trip covering 2,000 miles. Last year the Griffins spent some time on the Pacific coast, and in California, where they Ogden, Newark, dealers in lumber. The brick was purchased of John Haight, of Newark. Among the men who —„,,».. Auauis appear on I lumber bills, Amos McOmber was a workman, and Thomas Negus, Henry Butler, Mark Hopkins, Erastus Ken- yon, William A- Lyons, and many other familiar names appear among the papers. An occasional dunning letter was received, which may be found with the rest, showing the unpleasant features of such undertakings.

The saving will be almost a hundred per cent on the taxes. Not only will this enlarged proposi- tion, according to Mr. Croop, be cheaper for Marion, but it will also be cheaper for the outside districts which have been added. This will be shown by the following illustration: Take District No. 9 with an assessed valuation of over $100,000. This dis- trict would have to build a new build- ing at once, costing approximately $7,000. Teacher and maintenance would cost $1,000 a year after deduct-, ing the public money. Payment on bonds and interest annually, the first year would be $350 on principal and $420 on interest, making $770. This added to the $1,000 for general ex- penses would make a total of $1,770, which would have to be raised an- nually by tax in this district, which would give a tax rate of about $17.70 a thousand. If this district comes in with the enlarged Marion district, the rate would be approximately $14 a thousand. This same illustration would apply to each of the other dis- tricts and in some others the local rate would be even greater. For in- stance, No. 11, Palmyra, has an assessed valuation of only $80,000. the enlarged district under one\cen- alienee that packed the.largest audi tral plant instead of several, would be tonum ,n town.
