: How we Manage our Affairs—VI, How the Money is Raised and Spent'
MRS. RACKHAM'S series has so far been designed to give us a view of the work and organization of the various councils and committees that, though their work so nearly affects our daily lives, lie so largely outside our general interest. We see the fruits of their labours, but we take astonishingly little interest in the labours themselves. Yet, as intelligent members of society, it is our duty to acquaint ourselves with these potent activities. In this afternoon's talk-the last in her series-Mrs. Rackham will explain to us how tfte money required by these councils and com-' inittees is obtained; how the rates are levied; who pays; how payment is enforced; loans, grants from the central government, and so on.
