poem here reproduced should committed to memory
nd girl in the South:
The Sword of Robert Lee.
Forth from its scabbard pure and bright
Flashed the sword Of Lee!
Far in the front of the deadly fight
High Ger the brave in the cause Of right,
Its stainless sheen like beacon light,
Led US to victory
Out of its scabbard where full long
It slumbered peacefully
Reused from its rest by the battle song.
Shielding the feeble, shifting the strong,
Guarding the right avenging the wrong
Cleaned the sword of Lee.
Forth from its scabbard high in air,
Beneath virginits sky,
And they who saw 1t cleaning there
And knew who bore 1t, knelt to swear
That where that sword led, they would dare
To follow and to die
Out of its scabbardl Never hand
Waved sword from stain SO free.
No purer sword led drawer band,
Nor drawer bled for brighter land,
Nor brighter land had grand,
Nor cause chief like Lee.
Forth from its scabbard! How prayed
That sword might victor be;
And when triumph was delayed
And many heart grew afraid,
We still hoped while cleaned the blade
OF noble Robert Lee.
Forth from its scabbard! All in vain
Bright flashed the sword of Lee,
TITS shrouded in its sheath again;
1t sleeps the sleep of noble slain,
Defeated yet without stain,
Proudly and peacefully.
Father Ryan.

may be asked why. For instance. here is
a man who reports a net income of ST.
coo a year as a merchant. He is required
to give his gross income and also his
expenses of conducting the business. If
the returns show a net income very much
higher than might be expected from such
gross income he may be asked to make
sure there is no mistake about his gross
income. Or if his operating expenses are
out of all proportion to what might be
expected on a net income of $4,000
year he may be requested to advise the
Treasury Department whether he has not
overestimated his operating expenses.
After the proposed law goes into effect
the Treasury Department will go to work
to frame rules and regulations for the
assessment and collection of the tax.
These will amplify every paragraph of
the law and will be the chart by which
the collectors will steer. These rules
and regulations will be rather voluminous
and will be SO comprehensive that they
will cover the great majority of the
questions that might arise in the admin
istra ton Of the tax. But there WILL from
time to time, arise questions that no one
has fOreseen.
These matters will be referred back to
the Treasury Department. and the inter
nal revenue bureau. under the guidance
of the Secretary, will make new rules
to cover these cases as they come up.
In year or two of experience nearly
every contingency that may arise will
have come up and practically every ques-
ton that may arise will have been passed
upon.
There are indications in many quarters
that the law will be lived up to as well
by individuals as the corporation tax
laws have been lived up to by the cor
porar ions of the country. But however
widespread and sincere this purpose, IL
is inevitable that many questions will
arise in the administration of the tax.
which can be settled only by reference to
the courts. Thus there will be added to
our judicial history long line of de-
cisions affecting the constitutionality of

The INCOME YAK.
V.-MethodS of Admins
tration.
D. E~aJar:o uocL;o
By Frederic ]. Haskin.

The machinery for collecting the in
come tax provided for in the Underwood
bill promises to be much simpler in its
makeup and more easily operated than
the machinery for collecting similar taxes
in any other country. Especially will it
be far i'm advance of the English methods
of collecting income taxes. There one
detail has been added. here another, and
elsewhere still another, until it resembles
a house that has been built a room at a
time No Englishman would write an
income tax law like the present one if
the books were clean. and yet nothing
short of wiping off the slate would per-
NIT much improvement.
The proposed American law does away
with attachments and refunds and a
half dozen other cumbersome features of
the English law John Bull has his SUBJ
iects pay their full taxes, in many in.
stances and then. under a system of re-
funds. pays some of the tax back again.
For instance, here is a man whose in
come does not exceed the usual eXemp-
ton who is a stockholder in a corpora
ton The corporation must pay his tax
on his income from ii. whether that in
come is large enough to ne taxed or not.
If it is not large enough he can have it
refunded to him afterward. This is but
one of the many unsatisfactory features
of the administrative phases of the Eng
lish income tax law.
The proposed law here does not intend
that the government shall collect any
tax upon exempted incomes, whether
these incomes arise wholly or in part
from investments or not. Consequently.
a man who owns stock in corporation,
but whose income is not above $4,000,
needs only to notify the corporation that
he claims an exemption for the income
he derives from it. and If his statements
are true he will have no further worry.
His English brother sometimes has to
unwind miles of red tape to get back
taxes which ought never to have been
assessed against him.

Words of Caution.

After showing pictures of the proper
way to get off street car the PAM
phlet issued by the Baltimore company.
under the head of "a Few Words of
Caution gives the following advire:
"You sometimes read about school
boy or girl being run over by street
car or an automobile or wagon and
being badly hurt or even killed. You
sometimes see a reckless or Thought
less child just escape by a hairs
breadth accidents of this kind. That is
our reason for warning you to be very
careful of cars, automobiles and
wagons when on the streets
Before crossing street always
may be sure there is no danger of an
approaching car or other vehicle.
Never rush across the street. for in
your hurry you may stumble and fail
and be run over by car, automobile
or wagon that you did not see or that
YOU thought was too far off to be dan
gerous. Never cross behind car. AL
tomobile or wagon unless you are sue
no car, automobile or wagon coming
the other way is on the track.
Some of you use the ST. eet cars TO go
TO school and to go home from school.
Indeed. great many of YOU ride OIL wet
days. Bear these things In mind: Don't
try to get on the car until it has come
to full stop. Never get off car until
il has come to a full stop. There is but
one right way to get off car, so that
YOU will be sure not TO trip yourself and
fall. The right way is to face forward
take hold of the grab handle with your
left hand and put your right foot to
the ground first
IF YOU are careful i'm these things your
parents Will have no reason 10 WORRY
about your safety on your way to and
from school.
