Of an early peace than was thought to

Eiendous resources and man power Of

on the side Of the entente allies. In tho
opinion Of military experts. has more
thnn offset the advantages gained by
Germany and her allies during the past
twelve months and has made possible
the continuance Of the conflict until a
time when definite military decision
can he obtained.
There have been n half dozen or
more outstanding events In the past
year. Some Of these have been ot
purely military significance and others
have been occurrences of n political mn.

OF the year was the Russian revolution
which resulted IN the overthrow ~
Car Nicholas and illuminated during
the closing months of the year In u

eliminated Russia from the ranks of

chief events of the year have been

 Failure to report to the internal revenue collector is punishable by fine of from $20 to q ,000 and Imprisonment.
 Unmarried persons, not the head of families, who made s1 ,000 or more last year, and married persons, living with wife or husband, who made $2,008 or more last year, are required to pay an income tax
 Income tax returns must be made out on forms furnished by the gov ernnent. Because a good many peo pie who must pay an income tax dc not understand the law. and therefore will not know how to make out their returns, the government is sending ex- perts to every county to show them how to do it.
 Those who are not sure whether l they are subject to the tax are ad- vised to ask about 1t and make sure
 The smaller the amount the govern. Hient raises by taxation, the larger the bond issues, so everyone is urged to dt l his or her patriotic duty and turn il
