THE RUBBER STAMP

Sometimes we think the man who
invented rubber stamps did so to keep
some business men from prospering as
they would had such an article never
been originated.
You enjoy seeing a prosperous,
cleanly dressed attractive man, You
enjoy doing business with him. Ap-
pearances still count for good deal,
and you feel that such a man takes
pride in his business and is anxious to
make a good impression. The same is
true Of rubber stamp. You see one
business or professional man using
neatly printed, clean and attractive
letterheads and envelopes and bill
heads and cards, and you set him
down as a substantial fellow, one wor-
thy of your business. You see another
satisfied to go along with a rubber
stamp, and you at once put him down
as either a tight-wad or one who
doesn't possess much ability along
business lines.
No matter what business or profes-
sion man is engaged in, the impress
sion left by his printed matter on the
minds of those who do not know hun,
and never see him, is lasting. They
rate him by his taste And certainly a
daubed up return card on an envelope
or gaudy rubber-stamped letterheld
doesn't make a very favorable impress
sion on a stranger. 1t would be far
better to use plain paper altogether.
And yet are in all communities
some right here around Harrison who
haven't learned these business facts
and who have not discovered that now
a-days printed matter Is not expensive
and yet thing which may win or
lose. many dollars in the business
world. A word to the wise is suffi-
cient-and it ought to have some eff
feet on the man who uses a rubber
stamp.

MARCH Is LAST FILING DATE.
Surest Way Is to Follow Form 1040A.
Free Advice in Doubtful Gases.
Severe Penalties in
Law,

Nobody is exempt from Income Tax.
An obligation is laid directly on the
shoulders of each citizen and resident
TO consider his own case and to get his
return in on time if one is due.
With each return showing a tax due
a payment must accompany the return
In the full amount Of the tax or at
least One-quarter Of the tax.
All returns for 1919 must be filed on
or before March L.
Must Show True Figures.
In figuring up his earnings for in
come tax purposes a person must take
into consideration all items Of taxable
income, and each item itself must be
accurate in amount. GueSscs and es-
timateS must be avoided, for the re-
turn is made under oath
Everybody who had an income dur
ing 1919 must now determine whether
his or her net income was sufficient in
amount to require aG Income Tax re-
turn. The best way to find out is to
get Form 1O1uA and follow the in
structionS printed on it. That form
will serve as a reminder Of every item
of income; and if a return is due, il
tells how to prepare and file it.
One of the important points to keep
in mind is that a persons net income
is found by computation prescribed
in the law, and that each item of IN
come from every source must be con-
Sidered, uncss specifically exempted.
Another thing to remember is that
th, personal exemption allowed tax
payers by law has no relation whatever
TO the requirement to file return. This
exemption is not to be considered until
q person has figured out his net in
come and determined whether it was
sufficient to require him TO file a re-
turn. Then, IL a return must be filed,
he should read carefully the instruc-
tons for claiming exemption, and com
plete his return.
II in doubt on any point as to income

free advice and aid from the nearest
Internal Revenue office. Many banks
and trust companies are also furnish
ing similar service during banking
hours.
Heavy Penalties In las
For failing TO make return on time
the penalty Is a fine Of not more than
$1,000 and an addition of % per cen'
to tile tax, II any. For making false
or fraudulent return the penalty is &
fine of not more than $4,000 or i'm.
py'sonment not exceeding one year, or
both and, in addition, 80 per cent OF
the tax. There are other penalties for
failing to pay tax when due and for
understatement OF the tax through
negligence.

BANK is FURNISHED WITH VERY
FINEST AND MOST UP-To-
DATE EQUIPMENT.

The Citizens Bank opened today in
their new quarters on the northeast
corner of the square. In keeping with
the banks growth and volume OF bust
ness the building has been furnished
with the very finest and most up-to-
Date banking equipment and furnish
ings. Nothing finer could be secured
that would add to the efficiency Of
the bank or the artistic effect.
An open Office for the President and
Cashier is to the front. The first win
dow on the right is occupied by Claude
Alexander Assistant Cashier in charge
of loans and collections. At the Tel
ler's window in the center will be
Dan Holmes, for paying and receiving.
Miss Kate Cotton, Assistant Cashier,
will be at the third window, for Ell
change and matters pertaining to din
srent accounts. The bookkeeping de
-partment will be to the rear of the
cages with much enlarged quarters
and arranged to handle the work with
greater efficiency.
The money safe has been installed
In the vault which is equipped with
shelving and additional safe deposit
boxes. Everything about the building
is a decided improvement over the
tormer bank quarters. A directors
room is located just behind the vault
which will be equipped so that it can
be used by the public for committee
meetings, a rest room for the ladies,
or for public use generally.
A 'house warming" will be given by
the bank on Saturday, March 6, at
which the formal opening of the bank
will take place. They plan to make
this an enjoyable occasion and have
invited a large number of guests.
