any. deficit. the Government hav-
ing about balanced It's budget, cur

Houston said, lin the second quar-
ter there WAS a surplus Of over $780,
600. 900, in the third quarter there
was surplus Of nearly 100000

COMPLAINT rs MADE ABOUT
ORNAMENTAL POSTS

The Avalanche received in the ma
ture Of a complaint a letter from
someone. we DO not know who. as
he did not have the nerve to sign
his name. or even give US any means
OF identification, that a number Of
people bought ornamental light posts
through the city commission or the
city council rs il was then. with the
understanding that these pos-s we're
90 be erected by the city and light
furnished over the street lighting sys-
TEN lines, but 50 far no posts have
been put up. and no action seems TO
have been taken in that direction
The Avalanche does not know any
thing about the deal, more than has
been told as. but II people have in
vested their money and received
nothing in return, we believe that
the commissioners Of the city govern
ment should take the matter up at
an early date and make some kind
o. satisfactory arrangements with
those who have their money invest
ed.

wages, but must file a return if her
taxable income from other sources
was sufficient in amount to come
within the laws definitions.
An unmarried, woman, widow, or
a married person who is living apart
from her husband, must file an In
come Tax return if her net income
ir 1919 was $1,000 or over.
She is entitled to an exemption on
the first $1,000 of her income. If she
j S the head of the family, as defined
in the Income Tax Regulations, she
may claim $1,000 additional exemp-
ton. Also, she may claim further eX-
emption of 5000, for each person for
whom she is the chief support, If the
dependent is under Is or is mentally
or physically defective.
A married woman who has an in
come from separate source than her
husband is entitled to file separate
return with respect to that income.
Ordinarily a husband and wife file
one joint return, including the income
of both, but if the husband does not
include his wife's income, the wife is
required to file her own return. Sepa-
rate returns of husband and wife are
required if either had net income
exceeding $4,000.
A married woman who lives with
her husband is not allowed a pre-
scribed exemption. She and her hus-
band have $4,000, plus 5000 addition
al for each dependent; and this ex-
emption may be taken by either or
divided in any manner between them.
A woman who was widowed during
1919 may claim exemption for the
full year, on the basis of her status
as of December the 31st.
A wife, whose husband is in a
sanitarium or temporarily working
in another city, and is separated from
him through necessity, should not
consider her status as living apart
from her husband. But if there is
whether or not granted by court de-
voluntary continuous separation,
cree, each must take status of a
single person with respect to income
tax.

as a specimen of perfect physical
young womanhood.
Miss Tevis is a former student In
the Girls High School. She is elgh-
teen wears old, and is an all around
athlete, an accomplished swimmer,
a good horse-woman, adept at fenc-
ing and a generally" outdoor girl"
Miss Teyis- is an enthusiastic ad-
vocate of the simple life. She lives
in the open as much as possible and
follows the classical Grecian ideal OF
simple and austere way OF
living. This does not mean that she
is puritanical, for she loves dancing
and believes that it is one of the
secrets of her health. Not only ball
room dances appeal to her, but she
studies and practices classical dane
ing roles as well.
"What is the secret of my health!'
she laughed. "Why there's no great
secret. I do not drink coffee or tea.
I drink a lot of milk. And / eat on
Ily two meals day-lunch and din
ner. 1 try to get couple of hours
sleep in the afternoon, but that IS
because I'm up late evenings in my
work. l think every one ought to
have a good eight hours of sleep.
and then there's exercise. If you
want to eat and sleep heartily you've
got to have exercise. I hike, swim a
good deal, fence little and ride
horseback whenever I get a chance
Dancing is fine exercise and l love
it. If you get pleasure out of your
exercise it is so much better than
doing it as a duty"
Miss Tevis is what is known as a
"perfect 36". She is five feet four
inches tall and in general follows the
proportionate measurements of her
height and weight. Compared to the
classical ideals as they have come
down to us through Greek statues
she is formed much the same as We
nus and Diana. Her measurements
are nearly the same as those of the
Ipeka Capital.
