The corners of little triangular
graveyard at Eleventh Street and
Sixth Avenue are remnants of the
second Beth Hahn, or Place of
Rest, the Jewish cemetery on Man
haitian Island. The first, purchased
in 1851 and enlarged in 1923, Just
south Of Chathdm Square, was
closed early in the 10th century. In
1890, when 18th Street was opened
on the lines OF the "City Plan" the
whole of the burial ground was
swept away. The present one Is on
Long Island.
There was a group OF wooden
houses buried in the heart OF the
block between 10th and 18th Streets
and Sixth and Seventh Avenues.

There is a profiteering game going

is not being noticed to great extent
by the public or the Federal authori-
ties. am referring to mems hats.
Wages, materials, &c, are not any
higher this year than they were the
last and still prices on this wearing
apparel are considerably higher.
While am on the subject of hats,
there Is this much more to say:
There are certain makers of hats that
have acquired a reputation for maxi
ing hats of quality and are now bas-
ing their prices solely on this repu-
tation rather than on the value on the
hat itself.

Recently the senior girls gave a
box supper in the long dining room
of the college which was greatly en-
| joyed and we'll attended. The girls
of the domestic science department
prepared the good things that went
into the boxes, and later in the even
ing these were auctioned off by AL
ton PARTS. One box, belonging to
Miss Maggie Turner, brought $500.
The boxes were prettily decorated,
some with bouquets of flowers and
some with fancy ribbon tied in a
pretty bow. The benefit was given
to purchase equipment for the ath-
letic association of the college, and
the sales from the boxes amounted to
| $4,000.
The Sewing Glass of the domestic
department gave a reception in the
class rooms last week, the occasion
being the annual display of fine lin
gerie made by the girls of the sewing
class during the term. The living
rooms were attractively decorated
with jonquils and japonicas, and
sandwiches and fruit punch were
served to the guests. Those serving
were Misses Helen Quattlebaum, Lin
ME Sanborn, Ruth Rogers, Myrtle
Herring. The lovely garments were
on display in the sewing room, and
the beauty of these ELECTED many
complimentary remarks from the Wis
itors. Many of them were made en-
tirely by hand, daintily fashioned
and beautifully embroidered. These
articles will be displayed at the an
nual commencement exercises for the
benefit of the public. Photographs
were taken of the model rooms in the
domestic science department, these
rooms being a library, dining room,
bed room and sewing room. The
girls of the department received in
struction concerning the arrangement
of model rooms, and this is the prac-
tical result.

the domestic department has already
completed the allotment of work
mapped out at the beginning of the
term for the entire year. These girls
are so enthusiastic over their pro-

possible to be given over to this work
is utilized by them. The department
is under the able direction of Miss
Jennie Harrison and she is greatly

the enthusiasm manifested. The

What more beautiful tribute to the
loved ones who offered their lives in
the great war than Memorial Tree?
What more appropriate monument
to our soldiers and sailors than a
tree planted on lawn, a row of
trees on street, or park of trees?
Thousands of Americans, whose
relatives and friends entered the SER
vice of their country to maintain the
freedom of the world, wish to keep
alive the memory of their sacrifice.
What more simple, more inexpensive,
more. beautiful monument than a

Nature will, year by year, make

their memory. Yearly it will send its

ANY COMPENSATION FOR
 SERVICE IS INCOME

"Any form of compensation for personal service is income"
 This is the answer of the Blu reau of Internal Revenue to fre- quent inquiries as to what is to be included in the filing of In come Tax returns under the head of compensation for "per- sonal services" Such amount includes salaries, wages, com missions paid salesmen, amount received on the basis of a per centage of profits, commissions on insurance, premiums, tips, and professional fees. All of the above items must be includ- ed in the return as gross income. Direct expenses incurred by the earning of such sums are allow able deductions in arriving at the net income upon which the tax is assessed.
 Compensation for personal service is not limited to cash payment. Living quarters, board and lodging, rent, and other benefits allowed in lieu of salary is income and the fair value of such benefits must be included in the return. Prem iums paid by employers in life, accident or health policies in favor of his employees as ad- ditional compensation are in- come to the employee.
 Promissory notes received in payment for services, and not merely as security for such pay ment constitute income to the amount of their market value.
 It is urgently requested that tax payers fife returns as early as possible.
