McAltTHUlVjHilltor and Owner V mtim m II 1 Tuning Your Piano! The proverbial brass band o the street which squawks its inharmonous music under the windows of the tenement districts of the large cities always causes distress to the listoncrs. To the player the music seems most harmonious; to others is discordant and out of tune. If your piano has not been tuned recently you arc in a similar position. Although your instrument seems good enough to you it is really out of tune and is not delivering to you and your friends the maximum amount of pleasure. You'll be surprised how a single tuning will rejuvinatc your instrument or will make your piano seem as fresh and clear in tone as the day you purchased it. . Telephone or write us regarding our excellent tuning service. One of our skilled artisans is at your disposal THE LAST PART OF NEXT "WEEK to regulate, repair and tuno. llfM J tKrxr-vyv r-,-. mrsM KaCEJ t WW yy V-uvX ' -. itWX ktr-r-dAt VN, tui' t v"y f k s-&s v y f iy Niy An Invitation When your battery need3 attention, to what kind of service station do you go?

TUB CODE TAX HILL The moro that Senate File No. C5, Governor JIcKolvic's code commis sion tax bill, is studied by tho people of the state, the higher rises the tide of indignant protest and opposi tion. It appears, essentially, to be a 1)111 to raise moro revenues to meet tho needs of an expensive code com mission system of government, nnd to do it by penalizing industry, enter prise, agriculture and home owning and home building. That is why the farmers of tho state are protesting, why wholesale and retail lousiness men are protest ing, why homo owners and those who realize the necessity of a building campaign in Nebraska arc protesting. Some other interests, it is true, ap penr to be very well satisfied with tho bill ns tho state senate is whip ping it into shape. Tho railroads, stockyards, packing houses, banks, owners of stocks nnd securities in general, appear to bo content. Under the provisions of tho bill farm property and real estate of all kinds Is to be assessed and taxed on its full value. Local control over taxation is abolished nnd extraordin ary powers arc vested in tho tax commissioner nt Lincoln, with a force of tax ferrets under his hand, to in sure that all tangible and visible property is listed and taxed at a full 100 per cent. But the intnngiblo prop erty, money, shares of stocks nnd securities, while listed at its actual value, is to pay a merely nominnl tax of 4 mills on the dollar. Tho farm er, the home owner, will pay n tax of from five to ton times ns much, and in some instances even more than that. One certain effect of such n system of taxation will be to cripple tho building trades, because it will be moro profitable to invest moncv in securities than in homes nnd build ings. It will tend toward a short age in hornet, and a shortage in home is the cause of the present burdensome rent and housing condi tions that the legislature thought re quired a special committee to investi gate. The legislature might much better have made tax provisions to encour age home building. A provision ex empting from tnxation, say for a period of five years, buildings erected for homes, similar to that which has enormously stimulated building in New York, would much better have met the needs of Nebraska at this time. But the legislature goes to the other extreme, penalizes building arid I'nMiiatrir. nnd nwnrds the prize Of a very low tax to the man who keeps his moncv idle. A farmer member of tho senate has declared that he w.ould have been a great deal of money ahead if he had sold his fnrm and stork in 1017 and invested tho money in low interest securities. He might have remained idle, ho said, instead of working hard and long hours, and would now bo better off financially. A few more boosts towards a policv such as the administration nronoses in Senato File No. f.R. and the farm ers may do it. umana worm riorum.
