SHARE AND SERVE

On nearly every magazine published in
the United States is notice to the reader
when you finish reading this copy place
one cent stamp on this notice, hand same
to any postal employee, and it will be
placed in the hands Of our soldiers or sail
ors at the front No wrapping, no ad-
dress"
How many of us, after reading our
magazines, take the hint that. this message
gives and either follow it literally or else
place the magazine in the hands of some
of the many patriotic organizations in
terested in securing the best reading ma
ter1al for the men of the service. 1t is such
little thing to do, but it means much at
this time, when one of the greatest trials
of army and navy life is its tedium.
1t is said that the hardest months to live
through in any war are not the months
when men are engaged in hand to hand
struggle, for the excitement which comes
from conflict buoys them up when they are
on the firing line. But the time of waiting
is the hard time, the hours when loneli-
ness assals and inconsistencies gets in it's
work.
Let each one of us share all the good
reading matter that We have enjoyed our
selves with the men of the army and the
navy. This is a time when we are asked
to share what we have rather than to give
what entails additional expenditure.
Money is needed for so many things, that
it seems a crime that so much should be
wasted that might so easily be shared with
others, and good reading matter is quite
as important as many other things that
may seem of greater value.

of Mohammedism was as far back as

and reckon the commencement OF their
religion from A. D. 622. In their cal

twelve Lunar months, or 354 days, s

THE MEANING OF THE FLAG
ur Iohn l. TYldsIev Associate City

DR.. John L. Tildsley, Associate City
Superintendent of Schools, was re-
emily hissed in the Church Of the As
osnsioa Of New York City, because he
aid that Germany's military success
In due to discipline, inculcated in the
Germans from childhood. Of course
The Kissing was directed at his con-
eeotion Of the attitude of mind nec-
sasary militarism-the state of sub
lection the German people are now
In.
DIR. Tildsley is one of the men who
was responsible for the recent in
quiries and proceedings against
teachers in the public schools who
fostered disloyalty. He contended
that teachers who were not loyal to
the government had no place in the
schools of the city, and he was right.
However mistaken he may be in
presenting his views his principles
are correct Discipline and thrift and
frugality are desirable, and loyalty
to the nation is absolutely impera-
tive, liz this nation is to win in this
war.
There is certainly no place in the
schools of the country for the dis
loyal educator. One by one they
have been dropped from colleges all
over the United States. And there
should be no place for the negative
teacher.
80 oh ho - To
by every teacher in the public schools
of the United States. The children
should be taught to honor the flag,
to love their country, to understand
the principles which govern it.
"Our flag carries American ideas,
American history. American feelings.
1t is not a painted rag. 1t il whole
national history. 1t is the Constitu-
ton. 1t is the government. 1t is
the free people that stand in the gov
eminent on the constitution. Forget
not what it means, and for the sake
of its ideas, be true to your country's
flag"
The children Of the United States
should be taught to understand what
the flag stands for. And those teach
ers who are delinquent in teaching
these things to the children are de-
hnqunet not only in their duty to the
children, but in their loyalty to their
government.
At the convention of teachers
which will convene shortly in this
state, patriotism in the schools will
be among the topics discussed, and
It should be impressed upon those in
attendance that the children should
be taught love and reverence for their
countrys flag above all thinss,-the
flag that represents the principles on
which the nation In founded.

THE INCOME TAX

News that the United States treas
udy 10 compiling a great "Doomsday
Beck" iistins the sources and the
amount Of Income Of svsrybody who
ought to pay income taxes, comes as
= partial answer to the campaign be-
ing wagsd to stop income tax lodging.
Publicity of income tax returns has
not yet been adopted, although it is
reported to be rapidly gaining sup
porters in Washington. income tax
publicity has two principal objects:
first, to expose the tax dodgers to the
full light Of public opinion and thus
check frauds and evasions; second. to
insure every taxpayer that the returns
and assessments arc being made fair
Iy and without favoritisr1, which is
kept secret.
Now that we are at war all the ar
sumsnts for publicity Of tax returns
are strengthened tenfoId. Tho govern
nnsnt not only needs every dollar Of
revenue that would result from stop
ping income tax frauds, but every
citizen has right and a constantly
increasing desire to SEQ that the as
ssssmsnts and collections are equit-
ably made and that all are bearing a
fair share Of the great war burdens.
During the Civil War income tax re-
turns had to be made public to check
frauds AZ widespread as those which
now exist. The New York World for
January IS, 1865, said: I'VE presume
the reason why the internal revenue
department wishes this publication 10
to insure a correct return of incomes
next year. IL is believed that vast
proportion Of the returns for 1868 are
fraudulent and that the government is
cheated out Of at least half the rev.
enue to which it 10 entitled under law.
The temptation to underrate incomes
10 of course very great and publicity is
the most effeetuai correction for this
disposition on the part Of the dishon
est Taxpayers"
Horace Greeley, in the Tribune of
January 26, 1865, wrote:
1--WE learn that the publishing of the
lists Of income taxpayers is likely to
prove beneficial to the revenue as
we'll a. to the consciences of some of
our best citizens Already, we un-
dsretand, considerable sums have
been returned to the assessors by
persons who have discovered errors
in their original returns of incomes
since the publication of the lists, and
assessors have received valuable in
formation in references to the incomes
Of certain gentlemen who should, but
have not, amended their incomes"
l. there any good reason why pub
iieity Of incomes would not be effective
for good at this time, as it was fifty
years ago?
