HOW TO PAY YOUR INCOME TAX.

Pay your income tax, if possible,
by check, money order, or draft. This
is the urgent request of the Bureau
of Internal Revenue.
More than 5000, 600 persons this
year will pay an income tax. The
total to be collected under the war
revenue act of October 5, 1917, in in
diyidual income taxes alone is $685.
. 100000. The vast majority of these
payments will be small amounts. If
paid as requested it will avoid the
necessity for the issuance of a re-
ceipt, and save much time and labor.
Taxes paid to deputies who are
visiting every county in the United
States to assist taxpayers in making
out their returns are sent to the col
lector of internal revenue of the dis
tTict in which the taxes are collect
ed Checks, money orders, or drafts
can be handled without difficulty.
Cash has to be sent by registered
mail or by the insured express.
In the conduct of the war Uncle
Sam is beset with many difficulties.
You can render one of his innumera-
BILE tasks less difficult by paying your
income tax promptly, and by check,
money order, or draft.

THE SURGEON-G GENERAL CALLS
FOR MOE NURSES.

Surgeon General Goras, of the
United States Army, has called, upon
the American Red Cross to supply TO
the Army Nurse Corps 5000 nurses
between now and June 1.
These nurses are needed for ser
ivce in military hospitals, both in
this country and abroad. Although
the Red Cross has already supplied
nearly 1000 nurses as reserve for
the army and navy nurse corps since
the beginning of the war, the i'm.
perative need for a greater army OF
nurses grows daily as the war pro-
crosses.
According to statement made by
General Goras, it is estimated that
there are between $4,000 and go
900 registered nurses in the United
States, and that approximately go
900 will be needed for service In
army hospitals during the present
year. The immediate need for 5000
of these is emphasized.

SUNDAY SUPPLEMENTS.

Nearly every Sunday newspaper in
the United States will carry special
supplement insert showing the honor

in colors, are to be supplied by the
Treasury, and more than 1000, 200

paper has replied affirmatively. Some
papers which have had rules against
carrying extraneous supplements
made exceptions for the Liberty Loan
