Government Officers Get
ting Good Results in An
nual Roundup
WILL CONTINUE DRIVE
IN EVERY BIG CITY
Special Force Of Revenue Officers at
Work-Persons May File Amended
Returns and Escape Discovery by
the Government.

WASHINGTON, Aug. l3.-Nearly ST.,
100000 has been added to the revenues of
the government az the result of special
drive begun on June l6 by the bureau Of
internal revenue for the collection of de-
Inquent sales, admission, transportation
and other miscellaneous taxes. Reports
for the seven weeks ended July 81 show
that the largest single item was from
the manufactures excise tax, amounting
to $2,O58, O48.
This tax is ON sales by manufacturers
of. automobiles and automobile accessories,
musical instruments, sporting goods, fire
arms, hunting, dirk and bowie knives,
chewing gum, cameras, automatic slot de-
vice vending machines, hveries and hunt
ing garments, articles made of fur, pleas
ure boats and canoes, candy, toilet soap
and toilet soap powders. The tax ranges
from 3 per cent. on chewing gum to 100
! per cent on dirk knives.
The next largest item Is transportation,
collection of delinquent taxes from this
. source amounting to S95l.569. Delln-
quent jewelry tax collections yielded
$3.50, l3l, the so-called luxury tax on ar
ticles of wearing apparel, Sl09,4l6, and
the theatre admission tax, S2l3, l33. Col
lections Of the tax on the sale OF soft
drinks, toilet and medicinal preparations
amount to $3.50, 52l. Included in the to-
tails are penalties imposed in number of
cases.

will reach every large city in the United
States 1t is being conducted by force
of special revenue officers cooperating
under the direction of the collector of In
ternal revenue in each district, with as
sistant supervisors and field deputies
The investigating officers are armed by
the commission of internal revenue with
authority to examine any books, papers,
records or memoranda bearing upon the
matters required to be included in the re-
turns. and to summon for examination
under oath any person having knoWlsage.
In beginning the drive, the directions
of Commissioner William Nj. Williams
were to conduct as thorough and effective
a campaign as possible, using such meth
DDS as would bring to justice wlltul Ylo-
lators and cause no embarrassment to
merchants and business men who honestly
were endeavoring to comply with the law:
The bureau has received a number or
amended returns, showing additional tax

SHOPPING FOR MEN.
New Yorker Learned How to Buy Finery
for Bachelors by Studying Bees.

If one understands group psychology
of bees it is easy to shop for them, take
it from Francis E. de Paolo, who makes
his living in New York by buying sar-
torial embellishments for wealthy men
who have the bankroll but lack conf
dence in their own ability to select habllI-
ments of good taste. Mr.. de Paolo used
to run bee farm in Florida and he
learned group psychology through his
study of the busy honey makers.
However he acquired his insight into
what men desire IN the way of clothes,
his knowledge has proved profitable, for
he has established a lucrative clientele as
shopper for wealthy bachelors who
desire to be sartorially correct.

men would like to have the world think
it is" says Mr.. de Paolo. DOUBTLESS 1t

TAKE YOUR YEARS LIGHTLY.
Why Retire Because of Age When The
Health and Spirit Is Young.

"Until a man is one hundred years

John Hopkins Medical school and now
director of the School of Hygiene and
Public Health Dr. Welch is Just

and ten years.
Having been born as long ago as

of the septuagenarians. Today is the
anniversary, but to DIR. Welch it was
only another busy day.
~ am not old enough to dwell only
upon "reminiscences, - he said. GA man
who reaches the age of seventy may
look as though he is approaching an
tiquity to a young man like you, but
that is really not such an advanced
age. l expect to go right ahead work

''But what of the Biblical three
score and ten years that seems to. be
set forth as the average span of life?''
" Oh, but we have changed that -
exclaimed DR.. Welch. "The span of
life has been heightened. Our greater
knowledge of life and its preservation
has added twelve and one-half years
to the span of life in the past century
and mostly in the past half century.
cit is true that this applies to the
early period of life. We have learned
how to control and remedy conditions
and diseases which have made high the
death rate among individuals between
birth and the attainment of fifty years
of age. Infant mortality has been
greatly reduced. What / mean is that
every child born has a better chance
of living to be fifty years old than was
the case a century or a half ago.
"Little has been accomplished in the
way of promoting longevity for those
who have passed their fftieth year. At

usually caused by some organic trouble.

other organs are prey to diseases and

els it true,' he was asked, "that
activity tends to lengthen life; that
men who have worked hard for a time
when they could lay down their work
and spend their old age in leisure often
lie soon after they retire2'
"That is perfectly true,' asserted
Dr. WEIGH.
''Nen who have looked forward to
l time when they would withdraw from
lctive life, however, have a tendency
o postpone retirement as they grow
older. When they do they lose, GER

5ivities provided, there is a physical
md mental let down and very fire.
Iuently the end of life is fastened.
az do not believe that the older men
should hang on too long, however. They
,hould make way for the younger men.
It is important that the younger men
should be given a chance to do impor-
ant work while they are yet in their
prime. 1t would be well, perhaps, for
he men advanced in years to change
heir activities, to do something diff

off at top speed, it was the wild dogs

Thus, the sight of any object rushing
