Rival Tax Collectors In rehashing the big Kiwanis meet last Saturday evening at High Point, Chris Marion harked back to the days when the present site of the city of Port Jervis was claimed bv all three states, although New York and New Jersey were the most vociferojs in their contentions. "In fact." said Chris.

"The tax collector from New York would come through on one day and collect taxes he could; then the Jersey collector would pay his oJnCial visit on the following day sometimes Of course, he wouldn't Ket as much as the New York man, but he would make up Tor It the next time the taxes fell due by being the early bird himself.

METHODISTS AMEND RITUALS ATLANTIC CITY--Revision of the ritual in the Methodist marriage ceremony and the burial service has deleted the phrases "with my wordly goods I thee endow," "Speak now or forever hold your peace," and the pronouncement "Ashes to ashes, dust to dust." The divorce code also was changed by the general conference of the church here last piijht, so that a minister may solemnize the marriage of innocent peraoii in a divorce action. It must be clearly established by testimony that the true cause for divorce was adultery, or "other vicious conditions which through mental or physical cruelty or physical peril invalidated the marriage vow."

As to the latter problem the composite fellow would hire a good football team and abolish compulsory chapeL But even In the devil-may-care role, the student consensus considered education the greatest benefit gained from college, and preferred the key of scholarship to a varsity letter. The dry law was voted down, 440 to thirty-four. The Princeton senior prefers to watch a football game and to play tennis. He prefers Kipling to Keats and votes Guest the worst poet with Wordsworth second.

His favorite college after Princeton is Tale, then Harvard and Dartmouth. He prefers Vassar'women, with Smith College next. As for love, 105 would marry for money; 275 would not, and fifty would perhaps. Only thirty-eight out of 440 were engaged, and 335 never had been turned down by a girl, although one senior admitted eight such reverses.

COUNTY BOARD SOON TO START ECONOMY TASK Continued from page one peeled on the caucus proposal to reduce the personnel of the Sheriff's staff on the theory that much of the work of process servers is a duplication and an unnecessary expense to the County. The movement reduce salaries of Supervisors, all county officers and jurors also Is expected to encounter opposition.

There is likewise the fact that, regardless of what action the board may take, no elective county officers may be compelled to accept salary reduction. The saving in that quarter therefore depends wholly on the cooperation of elected officials, who. it is expected, will be asked to aid in the economy by returning the stipulated percentage of reduction to the county Budget reductions for the next iscal year, including curtailment of funds for some bureaus and optional services and complete elimination of others also will be considered, it was reported. The two bureaus expected to suffer most are the Home Bureau and 4-K extension club work.
