CELEBRATED. High cost of living, and
the very human desire on the part of
demobilized professional men to sec
ure the best possible livelihood, it
says, is rapidly leading to an acute
crisis in the teaching world. The
paper advocates a scheme by which
the still modified professors and
students should be enabled to resume
their lectures and studies at once at
the universities and colleges Of Lille,
Nancy, Strasburg and other centers
Of learning in the northern and
northeastern parts of France and in

French Intel
leCtual Classes
Paid Heavy Toll

PARIS, February 15.-(Correspond-
ence of The Associated Press. )-That
French intellectual classes have paid
in lives to a fearful extent in the war
was disclosed in the casualty returns
IOw being analysed according to pro-
fessions, is stated in the Paris journal
Intransigeant. The records show that
1927 Frenchmen prominently engag-
ed in educational pursuits have been
killed on the battlefield.
Paris alone, the paper adds, has
lost 1878 students of different univer-
stiles and colleges, besides $50 journ-
alists and men of letters. The figures
for provincial France are not yet
available, but they are said to be very
large.
Since August 2, 1914, most Of
Frances great educational institu-
tions have been practically closed
down, only a few elderly professors
and a limited number of younger
men, physically unfit for military SER
vice, remaining to keep the lamp of
knowledge burning.
To repopulate universities and col
leges without delay, is in the view Of
the authorities, imperative if France
is to remain in the forefront of intel
iectual life. M. Lafferre, Minister Of
Public Instruction, promises special
facilities for students "as soon as they
are demobilized' but the machinery
by which men are returned to civilian
life is working very slowly.
L'Eclair, another Paris daily paper,
in an editorial demands quicker me
thods. 1t says that French culture is
in danger of losing it's leading position
if the process of putting the teaching

Instructions
Regarding Tax
Calculations

WASHINGTON, March 4-(Corres.
pondence of The Associated Press)-
Instruction for retail merchants on
the filing of tax returns and the cal
culation of tax due, issued today by
the Internal Revenue Bureau, empha-
size the importance of accurate book
accounts, particularly for small bust
nesses, as the first requisite in max
ing reports. Periodical inventories al
so were advocated strongly.
The bureau suggested this formula
for determining the net income of a
retail merchant:
add the cost of merchandise
bought for sale during the year, to
the inventories taken at the beginning
of the year. From this sum deduct
the inventories taken at the end Of
the year. The balance is the cost Of
the goods sold. This cost, plus bust
ness, or overhead" expenses, when
deducted from the gross receipts,
gives the correct net income of the
business. The inventory, the Reve-
nue. Bureau statement added, "is fully
as important as the cash account in
tail business.
III manning thth hNCitO 2 ot itlC
end of each taxable year, retailers
may list the values by either OF two
methods: ~ the cost OF the goods,
or (2) the cost or market price,
whichever is lower. The freight, ex-
press, carriage and storage costs may
be added to the cost of each lot Of
goods.
Besides the net cost of goods sold.
Tho rofoi1nr fc allowed tn dndftnf from
his gross sales for the year the neces-
sary expenses incidental to the bust
ness. No personal, family or living
expenses Of any kind may be included
in such deductions. The ordinary re-
taller might have as expense clerk
hire, rent Of business property, inter-
est on his business indebtedness, and
taxes on his business and business
property. Also, there may be ordin-
ary repairs, bad debts charged off the
books during the year; other ex-
penses, such as insurance, light, heat,
telephone, feed for delivery horses,
repairs and upkeep of delivery wag-
ons, supplies and upkeep for motor
trucks, etc.
under the item wear and tear, a
retailer may claim reasonable depre-
citation on property used in the bust
ness. On fixtures the allowance Is
usually S percent or 10 percent of the
cost price; on horses and wagons, 10
percent; on motor trucks, 20 percent.
percent; OF motor trucks, 20 percent.

a salary for his services, but If he
does so, he must consider such salary
as part OF his income"

1T he Cook"

Although the list of dishes concoct-
ed by the fat chef in the new Para
mount-Arbuckle comedy is a long one,
the principal and favorite food serv-
ed in THE Cook" by Roscoe Arbuckle
is food for laughter. 1t is not at all
necessary to set down all the doings,
high jinks and comic stunts that fill
the reels of the comedy with uncon-
fined JOY, but, with the help of Buster
Keaton, Al st. John, Alice Lake and
Luke, the heavyweight comedian
turns a respectable and orderly resta-
urant into a mirth factory, with efici-
ency experts holding on to all the
Jobs. Not satisfied with this the en-
tire force overrun a Pacific Coast
Luna Park in their chase after fresh
heaps of merriment, and pursue the
hunt into the ocean, with Luke tear
ing along behind as fast as his four
feet will carry him. Luke is all dog.

No greater love-, says d. w. Crit

~aristocratic Great Britain royalty lab
ors side by side with the lowliest. The
rag of wretchedness and the purple
robe of power all difference and dis

Into THE Great Love-, d. w. Grif-
fifth has put the courage of martyrs,
the TRANSPORTATION of woman, the in
spiration of poets, the awfulness of
the battlefields at night with the lurid
CLEANS and flashes across starry
blackness, mingled with the thunder
of the mighty artillery.
And the great hearted Griffith has
not forgotten his now famous touches
of keen, delicious humor, which light
ems the heart and brings this mighty
