 10 denomination at the time of computation, prior to inclusion on any bill
 11 or notice. No further adjustment to any tax amount shall be made by the
 12 collecting officer at the time of collection on account of such round-
 13 ing.
 14 § 2. This act shall take effect on the first of January next succeed-
