INCOME TAX RETURNS.
Many Feel Unhappy About Their
Fortunes About This Time of
Year.

The last of February is an irksome
time for many of our higher ups.
They feel unhappy about their for
tunes, as they fuss and fret and
fume over the job of making feder
al income tax return. 1t calls for
the untangling of some complicated
business problems in many cases. If
an error is made, labyrinth of red
tape may have to be unwound TO
correct it.
1t was commonly predicted before
the law went into effect that rich pei
pie would conceal good part OF
their incomes. AS you see the salts
faction that many people take in
cheating Uncle Sam at the custom
house, this seems quite likely. Many
persons who would worry over cheat
ing a grocer out of SOC are highly
gratified to get the better of the gov
eminent.
Yet severe penalties are enforced
for violation of this tax law, which
may well turn back some OF our
white liars. They would better re-
fec. that the internal revenue men
will lie comparing one years return
with another. III there are startling
discrepancies, they may have to show
up their private accounts. They Will
be in much ebetter position in this
case If they have made up their hg-
nres in strict conformity to facts.

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Some women are not as fresh as
they are painted and some men are
more so.
Many things may be preserved in
alcohol, but law and order are not on
the list.
A dime in your hand is better than
dollar in the pocket of the man who
owes you.

A Slam From Pat.

Two Englishmen were driving an
old, lean, wasted cow along a road in
England, when they met an Irishmah
coming toward them.
"You ought to buy that animal,
Pat" said one of the owners.
Elbow much do you want for
her?" asked Pat.
Fourteen pounds"
"Be jabers!" cried Pat, walking
away, II didn't ask her weight. |

Deploying the Company in
Line.

The base squad, as we saw yester-
day, deploys as soon as IL has a suf-
ficient interval, and the other squads
OF the company are deployed as soon
as they reach the general line, but Il
tact considerations demand II, squad
may be deployed before reaching the
line, otherwise, each corporal when he
reaches the line and gives the COM
mand, or signals with his arm, "As
skirmishers. His squad thereupon
deploys and halts abreast Of him.
An orderly progress of the whole
line Is OF first importance and for this
reason the deployed squads preserve
a general alignment toward the guide.
Nevertheless, the different squads,
within their respective fronts advance
according 10 how best they may pro-
ground, or the possibility Of cover. On
halting, the men in all cases face to
the front, which dn combat or ex-
tended order) Is always the direction
Of the enemy. Even when a squad

vantage OF cover-by lying down II no

little thing-and you will neglect to
take 1t away in time to save your
self from becoming a human trellis
that will have to support her the bal
ance of your days. Which is not
at all what you intended, but is eX-
aCtly what she intended.
Then there's the hammock girl.
She's attractive because she is so
quiet and still in a day of fem
mime unrest. She isn't forever tear
ing around doing things like most OF
around in a comfy hammock, and
looks cool and restful, and keeps the
powder on her nose instead of being
sunburned and blowsy. And she has
always got a book in her hand, and
your favorite poem and you are read
ing it aloud to her.
How beautifully you read" she
murmurs. How wonderfully dra-
matically you interpreted that pas
sage. What soul and understanding
you put into it!' And then she asks
you If you have ever thought about
going on the stage, and says how she
would love to hear you read the love
scene in Romeo and Juliet, and be-
fore you know it you will be doing it,
and everything will be over but an
nouncing the engagement
Still more dangerous is the good
lGllO" girl WHO Is dS SOOu dI SdLlCS
as half the men you know. She looks
awfully natty in her sport clothes,
with her stubby little fiat heeled
shoes, and her rolled up sleeves and
brown arms. And she's such good
pals. No nonsense and sentiment
about her. Why, she knows more
about Christy Mathewson than she
does about Browning, and had rather
talk big league and Ouimet's golf
score than listen to anybody quote
poetry. You feel perfectly safe with
her.
Listen, son. When Cupid plans a
mans undoing he makes him feel safe
with pretty girl. Then he's goner.
Some afternoon you and the good fell
low girl will linger a little late on
the links, or you will be floating in
with the tide, and you will notice that
she looks a little sad, and the ready
laugh has died on her lips. And
you'll ask her what is the matter. and
she'll say she's sorry you are going
home, and her eyes will fill with tears,
and the next minute she'll be weeping
on your best silk shirt and you'l be
telling her that two can live as cheap
ply as one, and that you think people
ought to marry while they are young.
But most dangerous Of all Is the
girl you are sorry for. You'll meet
her sitting out dances against the
wall, snubbed and unnoticed by the
other girls, and you will take her
under your wing and begin to try
to make up to her for the things she
has missed. And she will be so grate-

That is to say. while the squads de-
ploy in succession, according as they
are near the base, IL is necessary first
for the other squads to clear a front
for them by marching off on the flank.
At this point it may be explained
that, as in the close order drill, at
tention has so far been confined to
the company and the squad without
reference to the platoon. This has
been to avoid confusion. As a gener-
al principle, however, II may be said
that the rules for the depIoyment of a

company. Yet by this time. the new

noble and altruistic and-well, you
know what always happens to the
good Samaritan. He always gets 1t in

woman's life without having to marry

No man can afford to be sorry for

life.
Then there's the picnic girl and the
I-cooked-it-myself girl, but what's the

cially in summer. After all, you must
take your chances amongst them, and
may heaven preserve you safely.

REn CROSS NnTES

You may hear objections to this
knitting work. Combat such talk
with all your might. 1t has been
traced to deliberate, vicious propo-
ganda, a part of the great organized
scheme of hindering our military
preparations.
Send in your check as soon as pas
sible. The call is immediate.
This work is needed-urgently
needed. The government does not
supply these articles. These gar
ments do reach the soldiers and add
greatly to their comfort
In following these directions, re-
member knitting varies with the indr
vidual. Given some wool and some
needles, the work of any two persons
will be different. Depend more upon
n easurements( when given) than up
on actual number of stitches.
Our Red Cross chapter has yarn to
give out and needs more knitters. AL
work now out to be completed by Oct
2Sth, but a shipment will be made OF
completed articles Oct 18th. Come
to Rest room Monday and Friday
afternoons, 2:30 to 500 o'clock
These things are needed before cold
weather.
