UNCLE SAM WANTS
T YOUR INCOME TAX
Payments Can be Made Before
June l but Incomes Must
be Declared Now

Married men earning more than
81 900 per year and single men earn
ing $4,000 per year, must declare
their income before March first this
year or else be held accountable for
their neglect by the United States
government, which has decreed that
such declarations shall be made each
and every year henceforth. The len
iency with which Uncle Sam dealt
with the violators of this ultimatum
last year will be conspicuous by its
absence and the old rule, "ingorance
of the law excuses no man," will be
strictly adhered to.
Last year was the first that the in
come tax law was in force, and while
the government aimed to get every
body affected by it to make declara-
tions on time and offered plenty in
the way of education, much was for
given where slips were made. How
ever, it will be different this year,
for those affected are supposed to
know and negligent ones will be held
strictly to account.
Single persons earning So, ZOO dur
ing the year 1915, must make and file
their exemptions. while married in
dividuals earning $4,000 must do
likewise. The only exception to this
rule is where the income is derived
from dividends of a corporation, the
reason for this being that the corpora
tion pays a tax on such dividends.
However, if a PERSONS income from
such dividend amounts to $4,000 or
more, he must make return for the
purpose Of surtax.
Corporations in existence during the
year 1915 or any part thereof, must
make returns to the government ra-
gardless of what their income hes
been. In the case of the individual
his rule does not apply.

HONOR FOR MORRIS
MAN AT MOORHEAD
Teachers Association Places Ray
Roberts at Head of Organ
ization for 1916

Ray Roberts, efficient and popular
superintendent of schools in Stevens
county, was unanimously elected pre-
sldent of the Northwest Central Min
nesota Educational Association follow
ing an interesting three days meeting
which came to close Friday after
noon at Moorhead. Mr.. Roberts at
tended the meetings but was not pres
ent when the election of officers was
held and was much surprised man
when told of the honors. which had
been bestowed upon him..
Despite the cold weather which pre-
vailed during the three days the meet
ings were we'll attended and it is
estimated something like five thousand
persons gathered at Moorhead. Many
of the prominent educators of the
state took part in the deliberations,
Supt. E. C. Higbie of the Morris
University farm school spoke on
Educational Problems in Agricul-
ture," and Prof. P. C. Tonning, as
sistant state superintendent, spoke on
the relation of the rural school to
the state system of public education.
The sessions were held morning and
afternoon and the evenings were de.
voted to musical programs, lectures
and entertainments. The next meet
ing of the teachers will be held al
Moorhead about the same time nexi
year when new president will preside
'The organization is doing great
work. said Mr.. Roberts yesterday

PRATT GOES AFTER
TOUCH MAT ARTIST
Popular Donnelly Grappler
Takes on Eddie Miller at
Armory Thursday Night

Morris sport fans are polishing the
spark plug in the wrestling auto this
week and are getting ready for the
wrestling match at the armory Thurs
day evening next week when Arthur
Pratt, the Donnelly phenom, meets
Eddie Miller, of Humboldt. Ia, with
whom he has been striving for a
match for about two years. Miller
is a pupil of Frank Gotch, world s
champion mat artist, and is one of the
fastest middleweight performers in
Iowa. The match is for all the gate
receipts and side bet of one hundred
dollars. The men are evenly matched
as far as weight is concerned but Mill
er has the advantage of about three
pounds. He is little older and has
been at the game longer than Pratt
but this does not discourage the Don
nelly lad who is confident he can dis
pose of the corn husker in record
time.
Pratt was in Morris Saturday and
completed arrangements for the match.
He left for Minneapolis Sunday morn
ing where he is now training at the
Cook gymnasium and where he will
remain till the day of the match.
Last year Pratt made something OF
a record. He won sixteen out of the
eighteen matches and disposed of such
celebrities as DIR. Thompson. Conrad
Myhre and Frank Dale. He is q
clever man with the half-Nelson and
toe holds but his best is the hammer
lock with which he finished DR..
Thompson.
Good preliminaries are promised at
the match. While none of the sports
in Morris claim distinction as wrest-
lers several have promised to go on fol
fall or two. There are several
clever boxers in town and an effort
will be made to stage three rounC
performance. In case this can be ar.
ranged ten-ounce gloves will be usec
and that will eliminate the danger Of
Morris tribune., 1916-02-04

injury. The bout will be for points
and will resemble a pillow fight which
will no doubt be highly interesting.
The Pratt-Miller contest will be
the first of the kind seen in Morris for
three years and promises to draw a
good crowd. The principals have a
reputation for fast work. and their
past performances have always been
"on the square" which helps a whole
lot. Pratt is we'll known in Morris
and will have plenty of friends at the
ring side Thursday night to root for
him. Donnelly fans are planning to
be here in full force.

TO KNOW
ALL ABOUT AUTOS
Live Stock and Drainage Among
Other Subjects for Discus
sion at Short Course

The third week in February the
University Farm School will run an
automobile school in connection with
it's annual Short Course. The work
begins Monday morning in connection
with the Teachers & School Officers
Meeting, and closes Saturday fore
noon with conferences of Short Course
men, county agents, high school agri-
cultural men, stock breeders, and
those interested in drainage.
The three main lines considered dur
ing Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs day
and Friday are stock questions (beef,
dairy, swine and horses) automobiles,
farm clubs, drainage and farm man
ageme1t. This is the most complete
and wei arranged Short Course
ever presented by the West Central
school. Already a large number of
advance registrations have come in,
and good attendance is assured. The
automobile school alone is we'll worth
the time needed for the course. Mr..
Bass is a head instructor in automo-
biles at Dunwoody Institute in Mime
apolis. A car will be completely
taken down and reassembled. Mr..
Bass will bring with him a complete
outfit of automobile parts showing the
various notifications of the different
machines.
These courses are open to everyone,
and in order to be sure of a place,
those desiring the work should write
at once.
