HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

The old Latin quotation, nos criscimus
I've are growing"-is very applicable
to the Custer Public School at the pres
ent time. Since our entrance into the
new building three years ago, the en-
rollment has increased between 40 and
90 per cent. Room, room is now our
cry. The first four grades are especially
crowded, having an enrolment of 83
pupils. DIVISIONS have been made in
the second and third grades so as to
facilitate the class work but yet there
remains dire need of additional room
and an additional teacher.
Saturday, Jan. 3lst, occurs the fourth
number of the course presented by the
Midland Lyceum Bureau. Andrew II.
Harnly, an able and eloquent orator,
will speak. Mr.. Harnly's remarkable
skill and effectiveness in public speaking
are due to his wit, terseness and origin
ality. He deals with subjects which are
timely and which touch upon real life.

INCOME TAX AGAIN
Certain Provisions May Exempt You From
Paying Tax, But Safer Way is
to File Return.

If you are an unmarried citizen and
made 81 900 or more during the cal
endar year 1919, or, if you are married
man and made $4,000 or more during
the calendar year, don't fail to file an
income tax return. There are certain
provisions which may exempt men
from paying income tax, but the safer
way is to file return before March /.
10000 Exempted Persons Fined.
Because of their failure to Gle returns
before March last year, 10000 citizens
paid fines Of S5 each, even though their
incomes were not within the taxable
limit, according to statistics The law
makes no exceptions as to the filing of
returns if the income Of the citizen was
81, 900 or $4,000, as the case may haye
been.
Unmarried persons whose income was
81 600 or less, will not be taxed, and the
incomes Of married men or heads of
families will not be taxable, if his in
come is under $1,000 Additional ex-
emption is made to the married man or
head Of the family if he is supporting
one or more of the family under l8
years of age. This allows an exemption
of 5000 for each dependent member of
the family.
For example; A married man or the
head of a family who is supporting two
children under Is years of age will be
exempted from income tax if his in
come does not exceed 50, 400. Yet a
man Of this status will be required to file
an income tax return, and is liable to
fine for failure to do So This also ap
plies to a single man who is supporting
a part of the family. If an unmarried
man is supporting one sister, and his in
come is less than 81 200, he will be ex-
empted Yet, the law requires that he
file tax return.

Is THE WORK OF
COUNTY JUSTICES


Pierre, S. d., Jan. l7.-According to
the holding of the attorney general
several legal tangles are likely to devel
op over action by comfy justices since
July, l, 1919.
The holding is that under the pro.
vision Of section TO- 669 of the revised
code the offices of county justices Of
peace and county constable were abol-
ished, the new order going into effect
when the code became effective July
last, and that any action taken by such
officials since that time is null and void
As the proper method of selection Of
Justice Of the peace, it is held that sec.
tion 52l7 of the new code provides for
selection of such officers in districts to
be created from the unorganized terri.
tory of counties, such districts to be
fixed by the county commissioners.
1t is not likely that any such districts
have been fixed, as most of the pro-
posal meetings selected candidates for
county justice.
1t is also held that after county
highway system has been created it can
be changed only through the approval
of the state highway commission
There are no rules for such action
laid down in the law and the state com
mission would no doubt be governed
ed largely by local sentiment in making
any such changes.

MORE ABOUT THE
STATE GAME PARK

HERMosA, S. D., Jan. 10, 1920.
To THE EDITOR OF THE CHRONICLE:
DEAR SIR In regard to the Lead
Daily Call, don't think the Editor un-
derstands the true state of affairs in the
Preserve or State Game Park l think
there has been a great injustice done to
the settlers in this Park and it does seem
to me that they ought to be reimbursed
for the loss to their crops by the animals
turned loose on them, and if the state
wants to buy this land they ought to be
paid in full for their land. think un-
der the present Park Board they will
get fair and just treatment which they
did not have under the Fish and Game
Department when they were in charge
of the Park.
These settlers had claims Sworn
claims) before the last Legislature ask
ing for damages did to their crops by
the elk and it did not get any considera-
tion because the head Of the Game De-
partment was not in favor of paying
them
There was also a bill asking for an
appropriation for the building OF a fence
across the south end OF the Park fencing
out lot OF good agricultural land and
most Of the settlers and it was a Job to
get this bill out of the Committee even
with Ia do not pass. Now | live close
to this Park and l want to push a good
thing along. | enjoy very much taking
my family to the Park for a days outing
and We never tire Of the beautiful seen
cry, and am aware that the scenery in
the Park is attracting lots oltourists " no
come to the Hills each year, and all we
need in the Park is Good Roads and it
will receive its share of patronage from
the tourist. But it seems to me folly
to fill this Park with lot of elk to eat
olt these settlers who have some lovely
mountain ranches with good buildings
and beautiful orchards, and some of the
most productive land on earth, and drive
these good people from their homes AS
for the scenery there is enough to keep
any tourist busy for long time with lots
of little small animals, such as squirrels
and chipmunks, you can see whenever
you might want to stop and eat your
lunch and which most tourists enjoy.
But | will ask how many Of the tour
lists or anyone living outside of the Park
ever get a glimpse of the elk that are
causing most of this trouble Just i'm
agine yourself and family travelling along
a lonely mountain road and suddenly
come upon a Mountain Home inhabited.
Will it not make one feel a great deal
better than to be told there is a hundred
elk in this Park ? If it is the idea to
have some elk in the Park why not
build an enclosure such as they have for
the antelope and then the public can
haye the benefit of seeing them in as
near as possible in their native haunts.
Now let us cut out this big game idea
if they cannot buy out these settlers and
all pull for good Park by building good
roads and am sure that the State Park
will be well patronized for its scenery
alone, and not work such a hardship on
the people within its boundary.
