INCOME TAX.

There are only twelve days left in which to pay your income tax. The period for payment expires April lst, and by that date every person with an income of over S1,000 must have discharged his obligation in this re- gard to the Government. While a great many have already compiled with inc regulations there are still vast number who for some reason or other have put it off. The peculiar thing about those who have not paid as yet is that in many instances they are persons who are scrupulously obligations, and who would not think of letting an account which a mer- chant or corpora ton held against them run over the date when payment is due. There should not be any hesitancy about paying this tax It is debt each person who is liable owes his country, his community and his neighbors. Nothing need be said to why he owes it to his country except that now above all times he should settle it promptly and will insly. As to his community it is clear that if he is a "slacker" in pay ing up, others might follow his ex- ample and the good name of the town or city where he lives suffers by such delinquency, In justice 10 his neighbors, too, he is bound to comply the same as they with the demand made on him by the Government. And, after all, if it is a thing that must be done, why not do it cheer fully and during the specified period The money raised by this tax is nec- essary to provide the Government with funds which are imperative if the war IS to be prosecuted to the successful conclusion we all hope for. It is estimated that some six millions Of Americans will be called upon to pay the tax this voar. as against only half million tax payers last year Surely no self-respecting American wishes to suffer the ign ominy of being a. tax dodger when so many millions of his countrymen are responding readily to the law. Neither should anyone think after he has paid his income tax that he has done some- thing for which he should be praised. The income tax Is a lust d ebt and paying it is 8 sacred duty

 Under the shining sun. One Jonah was selected for
 The service of the Lord. Within a wicked city. where
 The Lord was not ador'd. The task for which this prophet was Especially employed, Was warning wicked sinners all, That they would be destroyed A stacker, Jonah proved to be: He sailed for Tarstish, Spain, And paid his fare, perhaps in hope, He'd not be seen again. The Lcrd soon caused troupled sea. That made the sailors weep. But Jonah calmly lay below
 Where he vas fast asleep. Some say that Jonah means "a dove", While on the other hand Tis "a Destroyer'' said to mean, On either sea or land. Now when they learned who Jonah The crew was much annoyed, His name withal, led them to fear That they would be destroyed. To fix the blame, they then cast lots; The lot to Jonah fell; The madden'd q men then fell on him, For his last sad farewell. Jonah; this drafted man Of old, Into the sea was cast; A dove like calm lay on the sea. Their ship was safe at last. Soon Jonah saw. rise up in sight, A submarine at sea- It took him in, and down below, Three dayR, three nights, was he. The Lord who made that deep sea
 craft.
 (And whales to move about.> Caused 1t to rise up near the land And spill our Jonah out.
