NO DAYS OF GRACE
Income and Excess Profits THxe~ Due
On or Before December IL

On or Before December IL
It appears that some taxpayers believe
that they have ten days grace on the
fourth installment Of the income and ex-
cess profits taxes due December H..
Such a provision was contained in the
1917 Revenue Act. but was removed by
the Revenue Act Of 1918. No extension
can re granted under the law.
In order that this impression may be
corrected you are hereby advised that:
"Derember Is is the last day for the
payment Of the fourth installment Of the
income and excess profits taxes due this
year To avoid penalty. the tax must
be in the offices Of collectors Of internal
revenue or branch Offices by midnight Of
that date.
ENQUIRIES reaching the commissioner
of internal revenue indicate a belief that
taxpayers have ten days grace on this
installment Such provision was con-
tanned in the 1917 Revenue Act, but was
removed by the Revenue Act of 1918.
Payment of the fourth 'installment
may be made in cash or big money order
or check. Cash payments should not be
sent by mail. 1t is requested that tax
payers return the notices sent them with
remittance in order to identify the pay
ment. phe Bureau of Internal Revenue
urges that whenever possible payment be
made by check or money order. This
method helps the taxpayer by saving
him a trip to the collectors Office and
avoids congestion at the cashiers win.
dow Check or money order should be
made payable to Collector Of Internal
Revenue"
"Bills will be sent to taxpayers. but
failure to receive bill does not relieve
the taxpayer of Ills obligation to pay or
time"

A special session of the grand jury of
Chttcnden County spent two and a
haf days last week Investigations this
case and the result wa9 the announcement
by Foreman G. N. Baldwin. of Hinesburg,
when the jury reported in court shorty
before noon Friday, that no true BIZ,
had been found. Reports on two bills
were made, and neither one was found.
1t is thought, though there Ia no definite
information to this effect, that q bill was
considered which might have indicted the
members OF the Boulder Society Of the
University, who had the Undcrclass Night
activities in charge.
Although tho finding Of the grand jury
practically exonerates Mr. PerCel' and
other members Of the college from any
criminal liability in tie death OF Hen
drick, IL seems likely that the unfortunate
acri6cnt which ended in this fatality will
have far-ienchng rceults in controlling
future student activit'eo at tire college,
The action of States Attorney Allen Mar
tin in eliminating all boxing bouts or
exhibitions within the city limits for the
future will probably do away with boxing

OF this case, extending from Wednesday

he remarked. when he had recovered his
composure that l wish the young fell
low who is calling on Christabel would
go away, and let us get the house shut
up. It's past midnight"
At that moment there entered the
small boy of the household. He had
been, for the last hour or So behind the

vowed that he had enjoyed himself bet
ter than II he had been at a Punch and
Judy show.

GEORGE III. HUBERT.

An important acquisition to the
musical circles OF Washington was
made recently when George II.
Hubert was appointed general sales
manager OF the Arthur Jordan
Piano Company. Mr.. Hubert ac-
quircd his thorough knowledge of
musical affairs in its many and
varied channels through the years
spent - with Wanamaker in New
York, Lyon & Healy, or Chicago.
and with Sherman, Clay G. Co., of
Tacoma, Wash. The other day, in
conversation with the musical edi-
tor of The Herald, Mr.. Hubert spoke
of a plan he had in mind 70 assist
in the revolutionizing of the edu-
cational moving pictures containing
a consistent story with a genuine
moral to II. This movement must
be made simultaneously throughout
the entire world in every town. city
and hamlet. and the interest main
tanned by parents and others who
are interested in the welfare of
children. While the pictures win
be the attraction and serve as an
educational feature for the children,
good music will be the real motive
and power behind with which to
mold the finer sensibilities and ma
lures.

ADAM CEIBEL TELLS
OF FIRST SUCCESS

Adam Geibel, the widely known
blind composer, is still deriving
small regular royalty on the sales OF
his first musical composition written
forty -eight years ago. While ne
was a student in the musical de-
rartment of the Pennsylvania IN
stitution fer the Blind he wrote
piano composition which he named
Evening Bells" He sent 1t to the
Oliver Ditson Company, OF Boston.
which Is said to be the oldest music
house in the country. 1t was re-
turned with the explanation that IL
was unavailable" For two years
the composer continued to send II to
other publishing houses, but 1t al
ways came back classed as "un-
available"
That werd got on my nerves
said DIR. Geibel. I'm later years
myself have received many manu-
scripts from young MUSICIANS, and
IL must reject them / never tell the
writer's they are unavailable.

them"
At last Louis Myer, of Philadel-
phia, agreed to publish the compost
ton, giving the composer seventy
five copies, but no cash. 1t appear
ed in 1874 and had a good sale. The
composition is still published by the

FEATURE OF
ROTARY CONFERENCE

The spectacular feature of the re-
cent International Conference of
Rotary clubs at Atlantic City was
the enormous amount of music in
one form or another which the del
egates brought with them at great
expense from their homes. Between
twenty-five and thirty bands. or
chestras and glee clubs accompanied
tho Rotarians from distant parts
of the United States. Two bands
came from Canada,
When 1t is understood that the
Rotarians expended enormous sums
of money to bring their own music
with them one begins to realize the
Importance of music in the minds of
these men," said c. M. Tremaine.
director of the National Bureau for
the Advancement of Music, who was
in Atlantic. City at the time of the
conference. 1T Is another evidence
OF the rapid srread Of the demo-
cratic music me vement. Such a
demonstration woulc have been i'm
possible ten years ago"
The Utah delegation brought a
glee club Of tweLty-one members
$500 miles to the conference. and
there were bande from Texas and
other distant States. Concerts were
given on the Steel Pier by the Beth :
lehcem Steel Bard of 110 pieces,
trcught to Atlantic City by the
Bethlehem RotariaEs.
