hence they are coveted objects of the

THE IIOI TAX
EVERY GOOD AMERICAN EARNING
FAIR LIVING WILL HELP TO
PAY EXPENSES OF WAR.
RETURNS DUE BEFORE MARCH
Heavy Penalties Provided for Failure
to File Them Government Officials
Will Do In Every County to Assist
tho Taxpayers.
'ixOilnuton. "Must I pay an In
coma lax?"
j-iitit is the question that thousands
of Americnns are asking. The answer,
In a general way, Ilea In this state
ment: Ecry unmarried person having a
net Income of ?1,000 or more, and ev
ery married person or head of n fam
ily having on Income of $2,000 or more
must file a return. These returns must
be in the hands of the collector of In
ternal revenue in the district In which
the taxpayer lives or hns his principal
pluce of business between Jnuiary 1
and March 1, 1018.
The man who thinks to evade this
tax Is making n serious error, llcvenuc
officials will be In every county to
cheek returns. Failure to make u cor
rect return within the time specified
Involves heavy penalties.
"Not Income" means gross Income
less certain deductions provided for by
tho act. The law dellnes income as
profit, gain, wages, talary, commis
slous, money or Its equivalent from
professions, vocations, commerce,
trade, rents, snles and dealings in prop
erty,, real and personnl, and Interest
from Investments except Interest from
government bonds, or state, municipal
township or county bonds. Incomes
from service ns guardian, trustee or
executor; from dividends, pensions,
roynltles, or patents, or oil and gas
wells, coal land, etc., are taxable.
Normal Rate Is 2 Per Cent.
The normal rate of tax Is 2 per cent
on net Incomes uhovc the nmount of
exemptions, which Is $2,000 In the case
of n married person or head of a fam
ily and $1,000 In the ense of a single
person. A married person or head of
a family is allowed an additional ex
emption of $200 for ench dependant
child if under eighteen years of age
or Incapable of self-support bgcauso
defective. The taxpayer Is considered
to be the head of a family If ho Is
actually supporting one or more per
sons closely connected with him by
blood relationship or relationship by
nwrliigc. or if his duty to support
such person is based on some moral
or legal obligation.
Debts ascertained to be worthless
und charged oft within the year and
taxes puld except income taxes and
those assessed against local benefits
are deductible. These and other points
of the Income tax section of the wnr
revenue act will be fully explained by
revenue ofllcers who will visit every
county in the United States between
January 2 and March 1 to assist tax
payers In making out their returns.
Officers to Visit Every Locality.
Notice of their arrival In each local
ity will be given In ndvance through
the press, banks and post offices. They
will be supplied with Income tax forms
copies of which may he obtained also
from collectors of Internal revenue.
The bureau of Internal revenue Is
seeking to impress upon persons sub
ject to the tax the fact that failure to
see this ofllclal In no way relievos
them of the duty Imposed by law to
file their returns within the time spccl
tied.
The government is not required to
seek the taxpayer. The taxpayer is
required to seek the government. Per
sons in doubt as to whether they are
subject to the tnx or not or ns to how
to mnko out their returns, will readily
understand, therefore, that a visit to
this ofllclal may menn the avoidance
of later dlfllcultles.
The penulty for failure to make the
return on time Is a line of not less
than $20 nor more than $1,000, and
In addition fiO per cent of tho amount
of tho tax due. For making a false
or fraudulent return, the pennlty Is
a flue not to exceed $2,000 or not ex
ceeding one yenr's Imprisonment, or
both, In the discretion of the court, and
In addition 100 per cent of tho tnx
evaded.
A6 to the Farmers.
Tho number of farmers who will pay
Income taxes has not been cstlmntcd
by the government ofllclals, hut it Is
certain- they will form a large percen
tage of the 0,000,000 persons assessed
who never before have paid an Income
tnx. The average farmer does not
keep books but If he avnlls himself of
the services of government experts
who will be sent to aid him, It will not
be dllllcult for him to nscertain the
nmount of his net Income.
The farmer Is making out his return
mny deduct depreciation In the value
of property and ninchincry used In the
conduct of his fnrm, nnd loss by fire,
ttorm or other casualty, or by theft if
not covered by Insurance. Expenses
actually Incurred In fnnn operation
may be deducted, but not family or liv
ing expense. Produce rnlscd on the
farm nnd traded for groceries, wearing
apparel, etc., Is counted ns living ex
penditures and ennnot bo deducted.
Salaries paid by the state or a polit
ical subdivision of the state are ex

CLASSIC LEARNING MADE PAY
Professor's Acquaintance With the
Language Enabled Him to Squelch
Shine Shop Comment.
The Professor's Greek Is the Greek
of Homer nnd Pindar, as far as tho
professor's studies hnve enabled him
to get It; but ho can speak It well
enough, und enough liko tho modern
Idiom, to mnkc himself understood In
bootblnck shops. Ue has even trav
eled through Greece with it nnd got
along fnlrly well.
The professor's salary la no larger
thnu other professors' snlnrles ; or per
haps ho Is a war economist. At any
rate, the sizable feet at the ends of
his musculnr young legs nro encased
In very ancient half-soled shoos.
The other morning he stopped on
Sixth avenue, muses n New York cor
respondent, to have these shoes shlncd
up. The Greek boys were full of gin
ger; they wore swopping jokes ou their
patrons In their native tongue.
"A tightwad," or Its equivalent, snld
the professor's servitor to the others.
"A miser. Probably n wlfe-benter too"
and went on to discuss the profes
sor's outward aspect In detail. "Look
at these shabby Bhoes," was his pero
ration. Aud then the professor spoko Greek.
"If I lifted my foot to your face," ho
snld suavely, "perhaps, you could see
them still better."
"I had to pay tho cashier," snys the
professor telling the story. "Tho boy
was out of the shop and about three
blocks up tho avenue, still running.
The shop was strangely silent. Somo
day I must go in there again nnd find
out if that boy enmo back."
Attention of Mr. Garfield.
It was on tho Northwestern car line.
The windows were covered with frost,
nnd the sole contents of tho stove con
sisted of n broken broom bundle nnd
several burnt matches, muses the In
dianapolis News. Suddenly u coal
wngon 'roomed up squarely on the track
ahead. The brakes held nnd the gong
clnngcd, but the coal wagon did not
leave tho truck. More clanging wns
to no avail, und then the car began to
gather headway. A gcntlo bump nt
traded the attention of all the pas
sengers, who looked forward Just In
time lo see the motormairreach out of
his window nnd rapidly transfer sev
eral big lumps of perfectly good Ken
tucky coal to his bin.
Warned by tho bump, the driver got
tho wagon off tho truck, nnd the car
proceeded under half speed while the
motormun fired up his stove.
l$y the time Washington street wns
reached tho car wns fairly comfortnble.

The postmaster, not knowing whether
tho boy received his mall by city car
