Reception at Library

One of the most enjoyable
social events of the past week
was the informal reception at
the Library Friday evening
given by the young ladies Of the
town in honor of the returned
soldiers and sailors. The build
ing was decorated with the
national colors and potted flow
ers. The guests were received
at the door by Mrs. Howard
Davenport and Miss Corinne
Walker who made them feel at
home. Sandwiches and punch
was served during the evening
by a number of young ladies'.
The entire evening was given
over to social chats and banters
except a talk by Lieut.. w. G.
Morrison, who arrived home at
six O. clock that same evening.
Lieut.. Morrison told of some
of his experience on the other
side and how it feels to be a
way up in the air but wound up
by saying that he had had
enough at playing at being a
bird.
The whole crowd present vot-
ed it a most enjoyable occasion.

Sheriff Captures Still

Last week Deputy Sheriff WI.
Williams was tipped off that a still
was in operation out northwest of
town about three miles and was
given exact location and about
when it would be in operation.
Accordingly Sunday night he
organized a posse and paid the
location a visit. On approaching
the spot no one was to be seen
but the fire was up and the men
squatted near to await develop
ments. In a short while Mr..
Oscar Hadley came up to the
still and saw one of the men.
Then it was that Mr.. Williams
made his presence and business
known. Mr.. Hadley quietly sub
mitted to arrest, but when a
search was attempted he broke
away and ran some distance into
the brush. Thinking he was
after a gun, Mr.. Williams fired
Oh him and gave him a sprinkling
of small shot, when he came to
a halt and was brought to town
and lodged in Jail.
The still was about so gallon
and made of copper and
several barrels of mash wa, on
hand. This was destroyed and
the cap and worm brought into
town. Some time that night the
kettle disappeared. Mr.. Hadley
will be turned over to the Feder-
al authorities as soon as he re-
covers from his wounds.

Letter from Germany
Bolingem, Germany,
January 25, 1919.

January 25, 1919.
Dear Papa and Mama,
| just heard that you haC
cabled over here to see if was
still alive. / am awfuIly sorry
that | didn't get to write to you
after the last drive to Sedan; but
from the End of November unit
after we got into Germany
didn't have time and we couldn't
write at that time as you know
what the last drive was. and
after the armistice we followed
the German army through Bel
GUM, Luxenburg and a part of
Germany; so you see | didn't
have anything to write on and
neither did | have time.
We spent two weeks in Der
nau, Germany, with a German
family who had two sons in the
war and they were as nice to US
as could be. We are very com
fortably located in a small Ger
man town a few miles from the
Rhine, but of course we are kept
busy with our regular duties
such as pilice duty, guarding
and other such things. How
ever, it is no pleasure trip at all
as most Ct the people back in
the States think it is.
This is a beautiful country and
Of course | am glad | got to see
it, but you know if had had my
choice ! would have been home
with you long ago. after we won
the war. | am going to get a
pass Monday and spend the day
in Coblenz. Papa. you should
be over here to get some of the
good beer. You know, all of the
Dutch believe in having this
beer.
My Christmas package came
all 0. K. You haven't any idea
how | appreciated it being from
home.
| know you have noticed in
the paper where our Division,
the And, better known as the
Rainbow Division, did such won
derful work over here. There
is nothing too good to say about
this Division. They were on the
front fighting for ten months
without any relief at all, and
that is something no other Divi-
sion can say.
We would like so much to
come home, but this seems to be
a healthy country as only a few
Of our men have been sick. . The
winters over here are not as cold
and bad as we have in the South
so you see we are in pretty good
shape. | am in better health
than ever before and weigh
more than ever before.
| hope to be home by the
of March.
With lots and lots of love to
you both.
Lovingly,
Kyle Lyon.

Income Tax Due

nue.. This is the estimated yield
of the new revenue bill. The
income tax provisions Of the act
reach the pocket-book of every
single person in the United
States whose net income for 1918
was $1,000, or more, and Of
every married person whose net
income was $1,000 or more.
Persons whose net income
equallad or exceeded these
amounts. according to their
martial status, must file a return
of income with the collector of
Internal revenue for the district
in which they live on or before
March Is.
Here is what will happen to
them if they don't; for failure to
file a return on time, fine of
not more than 81, 900 and an ad-
ditional assessment of 25 per
cent on the amount of tax due.
For "wilIfully refusing" to
make a return on time, a fine
not exceeding $4,000, or not ex-
ceeding one years Imprisonment,
or both.
For making false or fraudu-
lent return, a fine not more than
$4,000, or Imprisonment for not
more than one year, or both, to-
gether with an additional assess
ment of SO per cent of the
amount of tax evaded.
For failure to pay the tax on
time, a fine Of not more than
81, 600 and an additional assess
ment of 5 per cent of the amount
Of tax unpaid, plus l per cent
interest for each full month dur
ing whiehit remains unpaid.
In addition to the $1,000 and
81, 600 personal exemptions, tax
payers are allowed an exemption
of 5000 for each person depend
ent upon them for chief support
if such person is under eighteen
years of age and incapable Of
self-support. Under the 1917
act, this exemption was allowed
only for each dependent child.
The head Of a family -one who
one or more persons
closely connected with him by
blood relationship, relationship
by marriage, or by adoption is
to all exemptions allow
ed a married person.
The normal rate of tax under
the new act is 6 per cent of the
first 81, 900 of net income above
The exemptions, and IL per cent
Of the net income in excess of
81, 900. Incomes in excess of
p5, 900 are subject also to a sur
tax ranging from per cent of
the amount of the net income
between SIS, and Sc, 900 to 65
per cent of the net income above
81, 100000.
Payment of the tax may be
made in full at the time of filing
or in four installments, |
IN or before March Is, on or be-
fore June Is, on or before Sep
.ember Is, and on or before
December Is.
Revenue officers will visit

States to aid taxpayers in make

ectors of internal revenue, |
and banks. Failure

N. D. GUERRY, Editor.

crisis. We must make a great
decision this spring. Are we
going to stick to safe al d sane
farming, which means plenty OF
hogs, cattle, corn, beans and
hay to sell, or are we going to
play into the hands of the spin
ners and cotton spectators by
raising a big cotton crop? 1t is
a well known fact that a small
cotton crop brings more money
to the farmers than a large one.
There is a greater necessity for
holding down the production this
year than ever. At the farmers
meeting at the conrt house, the
assembled farmers voted for a
continued reduction of acreage,
and instructed the delegates to
jackson to vote for a program of
FIVE acres to the mule for the
bottom lands and u acres to the
mule on the poor prairies and
hills. We know that in the past
the farmers union failed in pro-
iects because so many farmers
would agree to hold down their
production and then thinking
that they were the oaly liars in
the state, they went back home
and planted more than ever.
The lessons of cooperation
which the war has brought us
teaches us that the secret Of
progress is honesty.
The weeviI is pretty apt to
settle the problem if we do not.
We are all interested in money
crops that the weevil cannot eat.
Sweet potatoes is the newest.
We are going to have the dry
kiln. | am in receipt Of the
following from Mr.. w. A. Ellis:
"Okolona. Miss,
Feb. IL. 1919.
''Mr. N. D. Guerry,
Dear sir,
AS a result of the campaign
to make a money crop of the
sweet potato | am convinced it
Isl good project. | am willing
to do my part to help the farm
ers dispose of this valuable crop.
For this purpose | am going to
put in a drying plant at my ele-
Vator.
i realize the farmers will not
wish to rent space until they
have a good idea as to how many
potatoes they will make. Now
is the time to get seed and pre-
pare the land ard l will take
caFe of all farmers who will rent
space by the first of July. By
that time they should have a
fair idea of what they will need.
II will be in a position to buy
or store the potatoes at reason
able prices.
''The prospect is good and |
hope you will get the news to
the farmers in time to enable
them to get in a good crop.
Very truly,

mlttee 5 plans will be governed by the
amount of money raised

be strictly non-partisan.
