When we say that Constance Tai

And yet we will go a little further
and tell you that she is going to play
as a star comedienne in one of the
strongest plays that Lewis J. SELF
nick ever screened-viz., Cup the
Road with Sally" The press reports
from over the country lead US to be-
lieve that Miss Talmadge is at her
best in this splendid picture. 1t is a
most interesting story and the picture
is one that will keep you going. Cup
the Road with Sally" gives Constance
Talmadge a role in which her person
atty, beauty and charm combine with
her artistic abilities to make an ex-
quisite photoplay. She is here more
charming even than in "The Shuttle, -
as flippant as in "The Honeymoon" as
beautiful as in '.The Studio Girl" In
the play she is quarantined with bur
glars, mixed up with spooks, smallpox,
transforms, etc. And yet she smiles,
1t is a lesson for all. Don't fail to

JOHN FASSOL WRITES ON
THE BONDING or THE CITY
THINKS WE SHOULD BRIDGE
WELCOME BAYOU AND LET
OTHER MATTERS GO.

Tarpon Springs, Fla, May 2, 1919.
Editor Evening Leader.
Dear Sir:
read in yesterdays Leader that
you would be glad to have the people
express their opinion, throughfthe COZ
umns ofFyour paper, of the proposed
bonding of our city. l am therefore
taking advantage of your offer to say
a few words about this most import
ant project. l am not writing this
because | wish to see my name in the
paper, but because l feel great in
terest in this matter-an interest that
comes to me because | am in business
here, because this is my home.
In looking at this matter | see it
from the standpoint of what | believe
to be the greatest good for the great
est number. do not believe in bond
ing the city for building boulevards,
parks or walks around the bayou. l
will try to give my reasons. l came
to this town 10 years ago. There were
some tourists here at that time. They
consisted of people who were looking
for quiet and rest. They were not in
quest of boating or fishing or they GER
tainly would not have come to this
place when other places so near by of
fered much better facilities at that
time for these sports. They came here
to sit down and rest. They cared moth
ing for the>parks or the streets, only
place to rest. This they found, and
the same people or the same class of
tourists are still coming here. We
have bonded the city and built streets
an dother things for the improvement
of the town. We may go on doing the
same things and still we will get the
same people to come here year after
year.
Now, l am not against bonding if it
can be done so that the business men
of the city will be benefited thereby.
If we will spend our money looking to
the good of the home folks as well as
the visitors, l am in favor of it. In
my opinion there is one way to do
this, and that is to build a bridge
across Whitcomb bayou so that we
can have a direct road to the gulf. ]
have travelled over Europe and the
United States land everywhere it is
water that the tourist is looking for.
He does not care whether you have
walk around the bayou or not. He
does not care whether you have park
or not, but he does care whether you
can get to the gulf or not. That is
what he wants. If this is not so,
please tell me why st. Petersburg and
Clearwater have gone so far ahead of
us in the tourist business.
A park is an ornament that is very
nice to look at. But one or two looks
is enough. None of you would care
whether there is park around Lake
Lutea or not. You would not care, so
far as your own comforts and pleas
ures are concerned, whether there is
walk around the bayou or not. You
would care, though, to have a drive

Special Session Of Congress Likely
By June |, According to Dispatches
May Be Held Sooner if Situation In Paris Developes
Rapidly; President Confident

Washington. May 3.-An intimation
that special session of congress may
be called by President Wilson to meet
about June 1 is contained in confden-
tial dispatches received here today
from Paris. It was said in authorita-
tive administration circles that it was
quite probable, if the situation in
Paris should develop rapidly, special
session might meet even before June
l. In that case the call would be made
by cable.
The dispatches made it clear that
the president was confident it would
be possible. for him to return before
the end of this month.

HOW TO HANDLE The
LUXURY TAX FUNDS
SPECIAL FROM JAMES VI. CATH
CART, COLLECTOR OF INTER
NAL REVENUE

Jacksonville, May 3.-(SpeciaD.-
James M. Cathcart, collector of inter-
nal revenue for Florida, gives the
press the following interview regard
ing the 'luxury" tax:
The commissioner of internal reve-
nue. sent aae- the fallewins- settlement
in the nature Of a tentative ruling
with reference to the collection of the
luxury tax under section 904 of the
revenue act of 1918:
"The printed regulations relating
thereto will be issued within the next
ten days
" Section 9O4 of the revenue act of
1918 imposes tax upon certain ar
ticles sold at retail in excess of a
specified price, The tax is to be paid
by the consumer to the vendor and
cannot be absorbed by the vendor in
the sale of the article. This tax has
been referred to as the luxury tax"
1t is effective on May /, 1919, and the
rate of tax is 10 per cent of the
amount paid in excess of the price
specifically mentioned in the act when
such article is sold by the vendor.
Merchants will be required to rem
der returns covering the tax collected
during a given month and although
their records shall be kept in such a
manner as to indicate the tax receiv-
ed on each sale, the form of monthly
return required Of them shall show
simply the aggregate amount of tax
collected under each subdivision of the
section of the law, that is, the total
amount o flax collected on sales of
mems and boys hats, under one head.
and women's and misses hats, bon
netss, hoods, etc, under another head,
and so on following the classification
by subdivision Of the section. This
monthly return must be sworn to by
the vendor an dfled by him with the
collector for the district in which the
vendor has his principal place of busi-
ness. The return must be filed on or,
before the last day of the month fol-
lowing the one in which the sales were
made. In other words, the return COW
ering sales made in May must be filed
with the collector and the taxes paid
on or before the last day of June.
1.-THE tax under this section is
measured by the price for which the
article. is sold. 1t is on the actual
sales price and not on the list price
where that differs from the sale price.
The tax cannot be included in the
price but must be billed as a separate
item.
IF articles are purchased which
are subject to tax and are subsequent
ly returned to the vendor, the sale be-
ing rescinded, no tax is payable. If
the tax has been paid it should be re-
funded to the purchaser and the VEN
dor may take credit therefor against
the tax in the Subsequent monthly re-
turn. If taxable article is sold by
the vendor and later exchanged for
another article of a higher price the
purchaser paying the difference, the
purchaser must pay the tax on the
second sale and the vendor shall give

coming out of this place he went to

Lying on a table in the rear of the

for lighting purposes. So far as we
have learned the police have as yet
found no clues.
