.2,89I PULASKIANS
 PAY INCOME TAX
THAT IS THE ESTIMATE THAT HAS BEEN MADE BY JACK WALKER, u. s. INTERNAL
 REVENUE COLLECTOR.

In a communication received by The Pulaskian, Collector of Internal Reve- nue, Jack Walker, announces that federal income tax officer will be sent to this county on January ?, and will be here until Feberuary 2S. He will have his office in the Post Office Build ing in Little Rock. and will be there every day ready and willing to help persons subject to the income tax make out their returns without any cost to them for his services.
 How many income tax payers will there be in Pulaski County? If you can guess how many married persons living with wife or husband will have net incomes of $2,00e or over and how many unmarried persons will have net incomes of $1,000 or over this year, then you know. The Collector of In ternal Revenue estimates that there will be 2,991 taxpayers in this county.
 Returns of income for the year 1917 must be made on forms provided for the purpose before March 1, 1918. Be cause good many people don't under stand the law and won't know how to make out their returns, the Govern ment is sending in this expert to do it for them. But the duty is on the tax payer to make himself known to the Government. If he doesn't make re- turn as required before March 1, he may have to pay a penalty ranging from s20 to $1,000, pay fine or go to jail So if you don't want to take chances on going to jail, you better call on the income tax man. If you are not sure about being subject to the tax, better ask him and make sure. Whether you see the income tax man or not, you must make your return if subject to tax.
 Of course, persons resident in other counties may, if they want to, come and see the income tax man who will be at Little Rock.
 The Collector suggests that every body start figuring up his income and expenses now so as to be ready with the figures when the expert arrives.

Paul Remmel, of Little Rock, who is with the American forces in France, writes home a most interesting ac- count of the brave fight made by Tol- tee soldier, Lieut. Mclaughlin:
 "Heber Mclaughlin from Toltec, Ark, who came out with me is in a next company and has ably represent. ed Arkansas. He was commanding the platoon which was raided by the Germans. He had a terrible time, was knocked senseless twice and bare ly came out with a whole skin He was in the first fight for the Ameri- cans and while in hospital was inter- viewed by French and American gen. erals. He did many heroic things and will perhaps receive the French mill. tary cross. He is still suffering from shell shock, but is all O. k, being in the hospital only six days. He didn't write his mother anything about it. You might get in touch with his fam. fly, Mclaughlin, Toltec, Ark, planters, and tell his mother what q hero she has for a son. It won't come out in any news, so I am sure 1 am writing things l should not write"
