ENTHUSIASM AND PATRIOTISM
GREET CONCERT PROFESSORS

All musical records were shattered
last night when the concert staged at
the opera house in which Professors
Mcclellan and Weihe and Mrs. Ed
Grosjean and Della Loveday partic1-
pated Happily the people greeted
the artists in large numbers and they
were so well repaid that In the event
OF the return of the principals the
opera house will not be spacious
enough to afford standing room. Prof.
Mcclellan Is in a role by himself at
manipulating the ivory of the piano,
and as for Prof. Weihe-Ole Bull has
protege worthy of the great violin
list. Let Us Have Peace" by Mrs.
/ Grosjean and The Flag Without a
Stain" by Mrs. Loveday were encored
so heartily and periodically that each
felt it duty to respond. At this late
hour of going to press we can only
add that the event was one of the
richest to have ever greeted the peo
pie of Montpelier-andt that is saying
volumes.

TO PAY EXCESS PROFITS
TAX BY TNSTALIIMENT

Many concerns subject to the ex-
cess profits tax and doing business on
borrowed capital, find themselves un-
able to pay their taxes before June
18th, the limit OF time fixed by law,
unless they borrow more money for
the purpose. To avoid putting such
a burden on the resources of those
companies Representative Louis T.
McFadden of Pennsylvania has intro
duced a bill providing that excess
profits taxes may be paid in four
equal installments, on June 18th
August 18th, October 18th, and De-
cember 18th, and that the tax foI
succeeding years may be paid in like
manner. In case the taxpayer wishes
to pay his assessment earlier thar
the dates mentioned Mr.. McFadder
specifically gives him that privilege
in the concluding section of his bill.

these precautions cannot be discussed.
