THE FUNDAMENTAL

valuation la for lleuelit of lx>ral ;ov
vernmenta—A ftquare Deal Tor Cities
and Vow no.
BY A. J. MAXWELL.
The' last article covered the or
ganization for the revaluation of
real estate uiider the new act, ex
cept special examiners. The net
authorized the Tax Commission to
employ for tho State special ex
aminers to assist in appraisal of
properties the value of which is
difficult to ascertain. This pro
vision anticipates that in so far as
it inay be found practical experts
in appraisal of particular classes
of property will be employed with
the view that all property of each
of such classes will be accurately
and equally appraised in all parts
of the State. Capitalization of
enterprises has been handled in
such wide variety of ways that it
furnishes in many cases a totally
inaccurate index of the value of
the property represented. The
success of the revaluation plan
will depend upon the thorough
ness, accuracy and fairness with
which it is done, and it will not
do to assess at full value the classes
of property the value of which
will be within the knowledge of
the assessor and to take a poor
guess at the value of other prop
erties as to the value of which lie
will have little knowledge.
The Mtandard nl Value.
The standard of value is 100 per
cent, or as expressed in tho act,
what the property would sell for
at ordinary salo tor cash. Forced
sa'es, auction sales, and sales on
"tho extortion plan," or the al
lurements of time prices are to be
eliminated as u matter of course.
The act does not anticipate that
unnaturally inflated values ahull
be used, even .when supported by
some conditions of sale. The rule
is plain enough; the difficulty is
in the application. That element
of value is in every case a matter
of sound judgment and discretion,
based upon accurate knowledge of
the property. A very small per
centage of property has actually
ahanged hands by recent sale, and
eveu as to this,small percentage
there is in every case room for in
vestigation of the character and
conditions of the sale to ascertain
if the price represents actual fair
value. The judgment of well
informed men will in almost every
case differ. The one thing that
will be insisted upon is Iliac the
assessing officer in every case, as
to each piece of property, large or
small, get all the available facts—
not tako for granted, but take the
trouble to investigate—and after
acquiring all the knowledge that
can reasonably be gained
in a proper way, exercise au
intelligent, conservative judgment
as to actual, stable value, and
and then apply 100 per cent of
that judgment as the basis of
value. To use any other bas:s—
--95-90 per ceut—would bo like
knocking a chock from behind the
whoel of a car standing ou a steep
incline—lt would settle right back
to the old levels, with a different
rule applying in each county, and
with inequality the general rule.
Revaluation lur llenelll ol Comities and
atlas.
The State tax rate has been re
duced this yoar to 112-3 cents.
Tho average tax rate in the coun
ties, including special taxes for
various local purposes was 1.08
per cent in lUIB. In most of the
larger cities in the Stale the total
rate is around 3 per cent. So t hut
about 1(1 per cent of tho taxes col
lected in the counties from prop
erty will be for the use of the
State, and less tliau 5 per cent of
total taxes collected from property
in tho cities is for the use of the
State. Tho State is pursuing a
policy of receding from the prop
erty tax, and looks now dcliuitely
to a complete abandonment of the
projierty tax for its revenue, ex
cept for the public school lax,
which will be distributed back to
tho count'es. So that the chief
purpose of the revaluation act is
to furnish a more accurate, effi
cient aud equitable means of reve
nue to meet ttie local needs of the
counties and citieq of the State.
They will be the chief beneficiaries
of its success.

tax rates are confiscating income
from property, and a very great
reduction in city tax rates is es-1
seutial to the successful adminis-!

should leave the total combined
tax rate in the highest taxed city
in the State right close around one
per cent. ♦
There are three provisions that
will become effective under the

Sumptuous provisions had been
made for the entertainment of ihe
boys, with the result that the
whole affair weut off in the best
style. At the appointed hour text
books were cast aside and fresh
men, sophomores, juniors, and
seniors, faculty members and their
wives, co-eds, townspeople, and
visitors, between 600 aud 700 iu
number, all crowded into the spa

TRIBUTE TO MEMBERS
! . * OF JUNIOR ORDfiR.
Liberty Council No. 3, Jr. O. U.,
A. M. of Winston-Salem, held a me
morial service on Sunday afternoon,
.March 10th. The following eloquent
address was delivered by Mr. Numa
R. Reid of Wentworth. It is pub
lished by request, and Juniors and
all who will read it will enjoy it and
be well paid for the time:
Mr. Keld'i AddrtM.
Brother (Councilor and Brethren
of the Junior Order, Ladies and
Gentlemen:
I thank you for the honor you
have conferred upon ine in asking
me to participate in your exercises
on this "Memorial Day."
"Memorial Day" originated in
the hour of affliction while its
wreaths and blossoms cling to the
cross of immortality. The liter
ature of many lands is rich with
the tributes that gratitude, ad
miration and love have paid to the
great and honored dead on occa
sions like this, and we find our
selves thinking how poor this
world would be without its graves,
without the memories of its mighty
dead; for "Only the voiceless
speak forever."
This is a day consecrated and
hallowed to our Junior dead. On
this day Liberty Council No. 3,
Jr. O. U. A. M. bend over their
silent sepulchers and pay to their
noble dead the tender tribute of
love and tears and affection.
Monuments and funeral wreaths
have been symbolic of the immor
ality of love in Wll lands and in
all ages. The same sweet spirit
that fired the breast of the pa
triots of old aud caused them to
keep fresh and green the memory I
of their dead glows in our hearts
today as we come to scatter the
ftowers of affection over the sacred
dust of Liberty Council's members
aud make their memory bloom
afresh, filling our oyes with the
perfection of their noble charac
ter aud feasting our souls on the
fragrauce of their lovely lives.
Wherever a loyal, faithful
Junior sleeps it is fit that the
marble shaft and garland of honor
should decorate his grave.
My friends, while we know this
memorial ceremony can do the
dead no good—yet, iteducates the
living aud instills into the minds
of the rising generation respect
and love for the brave aud tnauly
virtues of "our deathless dead."
I declare to you that whenever the
living cease to remember their
dead a death greater than the
mere decay of the human body
will sooner or later erase such
a pleople from the map of the
world.
Therefore, let our hearts fill
with pardonable pride that the
sorrow for the dead is tho only
sorrow from which we refuse to bo
divorced. The love that survives
the tomb is one of the noblest at
tributes of the human soul. Where
is the mother who would willingly
forget the tender iufant that
perished like a blossom from her
arms, though every recollection is
a pang ?
Where is the child that would
willingly forget the lender parent,
though to remember is but to la
ment?
I Seven times during 1918 Liberty
Council was called upon to mourn
the loss of an honored member.
They called each other "Brother"
—that eem of human language
which sometimes means but little
less than love and a little more
than friendship, that gentle saiu
tatiou of the human heart which
lives In all the languages of man,
that winds aud turns aud runs
through all the joys and sorrows
of the hutnau race, through deed
and through thought and dream,
through soug and toil aud
field.
Seven loyal, faithful Juniors
havo fallen asleep. Kjineinber
iug that sadness aud sorrow which
surrouuded their going our minds
mournfully recall the closely
bound ties of kin and followsliip
violently sundered, of valuable
attainments and accomplishments
lost to the world, of raro aud at
tractive gifts scattered aud dis
persed. We think of the insta
bility of all things aud estybcially
the instability of power, fame aud
glory.
We think of these tru - men of
genius, industry, wit, courage aud
energy sleeping "beueath the low

We think of the youth with its
enthusiasms, its high hopes, its
illusions, and its dreams cut off
n ih« morning of ita beauty and
yet we think of death as the
charitable softener of asperities
and enmities, the courier of recon
ciliation to warring factions and
the messenger of silence, rest, re
posf) and peac ; for death is the
final and oomtnon conqueror, with
imperial and impartial tread he
enters the gilded palace of the
rich and proud as well as the low
ly hovel of the humble peasant.
His awful presence stills the
tongue of criticism, softens the
heart of hatred and turns our
thoughts tonwrd those things the
contemplation of which elevates
the mind, quickens the conscience
and purifies thesoul.
There is no mystery like death.
There is no theme so sublime and
grand as immortality. It has
been the fondest dream of hu
manity in every age and clime,
and among all classes and condi
tions of men, from the philosopher
in the pristine days of the acad
emy to the rudest bushman in the
wilds of the jungle.
But with all its marvelous dra
pery in the thought and poetry
aud and song of all the ages there
never was a time when there was
so much interest in matters that
pertain to things eternal as there
is at the present time.
And we recall the sweet senti
ment as expressed by another
when he said:
"It cannot be that earth is man's
only abiding place.
"It cannot be that life is a bub
ble cast up by the ocean of etern
ity to float a moment upon its
waves and sink into nothing
ness.
"Else why these high and glori
ous aspirations which leap like
angels from the temple of our
hearts, forever wandering unsatis
fied ? Why is it that the rainbow
aud clouds cotuo "over with a
beauty that is not of earth and
then pass off to leave us to inuse
on their loveliness? Why is it
that the stars hold their festival
around the midnight throne or set
above the grasp of our limited
faculties, forever mocking us with
their unapproachable glory?
"And, finally, why fs it that the
bright forms of human beauty are
presented to our view and taken
from us, leaving the thousand
streams of our affections to flow
back in Alpine torrents upon oufr
hearts?
"We were born for a higher
destiny than earth.
"There is a realm where the
rainbow never fades, where the
stars spread out before us like
tho islands that slumber on the
ocean, and where the beautiful
things that pass before us like
shadows will stay forever in our
presence."
Over nineteen hundred years
ago tho grout Master of Men came
to earth and pulled back the sable
curtain of sin and pinned it with
the Star of Bethlehem and from
His lovely lips fell these words:
"Let him who would be greatest
among you be the servant of all."
Can anything be grander than a
life of service? We rise by rais
ing others, aud he who stoops
above tho fallen stauds erect.
My friends, God does not thus
equip a life for tliSse few yeais.
Wo live in a world of reason. Our
hearts aud minds need another
summer time for their unfolding.
Mr. Emerson said at the close
of his illustrious life, "What I
have seen of God's work in this
world leads ine to trust that I
have not seen; and whatever He
has in reserve for us it must be
something beautiful "aud in the
style of His work."
So the Junior Order turns with
contidenco to the Bible for it is the
key that fits the lock and opens the
future with fullness of light aud
sweet assurance. Immortality is
here no uneinphatic assertion it is
hero as a glorious vision; it is here
as a couclusive argument; it is
here as a revelation in the tangi
ble embodiment of the grand per
sonality of the risen and ascended
Christ.
He is now our way to an im
mortal hope. Before He lived
aud died, tombs faced the west.
After Christ, tombs faced tho east,
for the sun had disappeared to
stand upon the horizon again,
clothed with untroubled splendor.
There is a chamber in the cata
combs, used Hbout the time of
Julius Caesar, and every tomb has
emblems of the skull and cross
bones. Nearby is another cham
ber of a later generation, and 10,
Christ's teachings have carved
u|ton each stone a lily, eloquent
of immortal hope. Today our
hearts are sad because of the lost
friends, but our assurance is of
eternal life.
Yes, thi shores of life are shifting
Every year,
And wo are seaward drifting
Every year.
Old places, changing, fret us,
Tho living more forget us;
There are fewer to regret us
Every year.
Hut the truer life drawi nig .er
Every year,
AnJ its in truing star climbs higher
Every year;
Earth's hold on us grows slighter,
And the heavy burden lighter,
And the dawn immortal brighter,
Every year.
During the past yearsorrow and
grief have been so universal. War
and pestilence have driven us, let
us hope, closer to the Cross, and
it is in limes of sorrow, stress aud
storm the Junior Order points you
to the sacr-d Word of God.
And, now, my brethren, as we
close thi* memorial service let us
resolve to keep fresh and green
the memory of "our deathlesi
dead." Let us ever remember that
our duties to thedead do not cease
at the close of this memorial!

I adjure you to always protect
and defend the memory and repu

you do watch over and give pro
tection and assistance to the
widow and children whom they
have left as precious legacies to
the State and nation.
After the Battle of Lodi, it fs
said that the soldiers ol the great
Napoleon noticed that his eye*
were closed and that, overcome
with the exactions and the labors
of the day, be had fallen asleep
upon the field." Those nearest
him formed a "hollow square"
about him and stood with patient
vi il until rest opened the tired
eyes of their commander.
in remembering our brethren
who sleep in the "tonguelees
silence of the dreamless dust," let
the members of Liberty Council
No. 3, inspired by the lives of their
dead brethren, form A. "hollow
square" about their loved ones
and guard with earnest vigil the
; fatherless children and the strlck
ien widow in her woe. Remember,
"Day after day as the swift hours
fall,
We are hanging pictures in memory's

The painter is ready, and dark or

And bye and bye when life is done,
We'll have to review 'them one by

If the pictures are dark, dh.'sad our

THE RESULTS
VERY WONDERFUL
Wilmington man claims
Dreco, the new herbal,
remedy, did him much
good.
Just because yon are uot inca
pacitated from your business or
pleasure, the warning of stomach
trouble should not go unheeded,
or serious results are bound to
follow. These warnings take the
fonq of dyspepsia, indigestion,
dizziness, nervousness, constipa
tion, headache, backache, pains
in tho back and side, that tired,
rundown feeling and various other
symptoms of a deranged stomach,
which can be restored to its nor
mal condition by Dreco, the great
herbal compound. Under the in
fluence of its great restorative
effect, these symptoms rapidlj'
subside. It clears up the liver,
kidneys, bladder, and enables
these organs to perform their
proper functions; eliminates uric
acid from the blood, which causes
rheumatism, and brings back the
flush of health to pale cheeky by
enriching and purifying the blood.
Mr. F. B. Futrell of 102 Orange
St., Wilmington, N. C., says: "I
have been bothered with consti
pation, and stomach full of gas,
indigestion and dyspepsia. I have
taken Dreco and the results are
wonderful; all my troubles are
over and I feel fine again. lam
glad to endorse this medicine."
Dreco is sold by all good drug
gists throughout the country and
is highly recommended in Graham
by Graham Drug Co.
