MODERN POWER TAKING PLACE
 OF WINDMILL-S

Amsterdam, Jan. M---Holland is slowly but surely losing the one char acteI1stic of it's landscape made fla nous in art and known to every scho ooDboy---the squat, fat, lazy look
 ing Wdndmills that for centuries have
 stood out all over the country's flat
 surface.
 These quaint structures are grad ually giving way to highly practical but ugly steam and electric plants. Dutch technical men say the windmill is doomed.
 Now and then, a large group of them is replaced by one electric
 plant, and. in the course of each year,
 8 number are destroyed by hre-pre- senting g. spectacular blaze with the big burning wings wheeling around constructed. mill was invented about the year 14o0. The great disadvantage of the
 windmill, Of course, Is its absolute de- pendence on weather conditions. For this reason, they are being replaced, when possible, by modern machinery. Tho Dutch windmill, however much it may look in pictures to be toy, is far from that It Is a sturdy struc- ture. as big as 8 good size house, and the machinery inside is extremely powerful.
 Naturally, 8 great many of them | remain, but the number becomes less
 year by year, and, so far as can be ascertained, the erection of new one is seldom undertaken.

 PURCHASES EXCEEDING S2

Newark N. J., Jan. 21-Abelitlon of the excess profits tax and substitu- ton therefor Of a tax of l per cent. on all purchases exceeding s2, to be paid Ey the purchaser, was advoeat- ed by Otto H. Kahn, New York banker, here today in an address be- fore the association of credit men.
 MT. Kahn characterized the excess profits tax as freq kish'' and "bane- fuT' in it's influence and blamed It's operation in a large measure for tho high cost of living, Industrial and economic dislocatien and social dls- content.
 T always favored a progressive in come tax,'' said MT, Kahn, and would not advocate any scheme Of taxation which would spare wealth, The upper scale of our surtaxes Is, however so extreme that 1t de- feated it's own purpose by driving capi- tai into tax exempt securities The re- suit is that our investment market has largely ceased to function, which fact is In considerable part responsi- b1e for our present strained money and credit position and is 3 menace both to our domestic and foreign trade"

DETAILS OF
 DEPENDENT
 EXEMPTIONS

In order to clear away naisunder- standings as to what constitutes de- pendency in connection with the ad- ditional exemption granted Income taxpayers, Collector of Internal Rev enue James J. Walsh today gave out the following statement:
 For 1919 G taxpayer may be al lowed a credit of $200 for each per- son for whom he is the chief support. But it must be remembered that he can claim this additional exemption only with respect to children as IT years of age or younger and persons mentally defective. eripples and per- sons old enough to be without ques- ton physically tncapacttated for self , support.
 If the taxpayer contributes to the support of some relative Or other in fair health, and still active, he can- not be allowed the additional $200 even if he Is furnishing the chief sup port.
 The very different requirements of the two exemptions (''head of fam fly" additional $1,00o: "dependent'' additional $2o0) must not be confus- ed. To be the head of a family the person whom he supports must be 8 close relative, must live with htn, and he must be such relatives sole sup port. To be entitled to exemp ption for dependent" the Lerson whom he supports does not have to be 6 rela- tive, but can be any child or cripple or defective; the child or incapaci- tated adult may live anywhere; and it is necessary that he furnish only more than half his support.
 The chief difference is that for ''head of family the restriction is to close relatives, the evident object of which is to promote the home; for tdependent' the restriction is to children under IS years of age or persons mentally or physically defec- tive, the object of which is to re- cognize material assistance given to those who cannot help themselves.
 A san, who has left home, but who still sends to his mother more than half of her support with enough reg u1arity that she may depend on it, can be allowed the additional $2o0, provided however that the mother has become sufficiently aged to be without doubt physically incapacitat- ed for self support Otherwise, the amount contributed must be consid- cred as ai gift, not deductible as an expense and not entitling him to the additional exemption regardless of amount
 A father may claim the exemption for every child under IS. But if one of his children receives from some estate or otherwise, sufficient distri- buted income to provide for the ex- pense of his support in the station of life in which he is placed, the father cannot claim the exemption with respect to that child, for, al- though the child is legally dependent upon him. Is in fact. financially inde- pendent.

that 1t is the measure Of God, that Il is
the measure OF a persons influence. that

Is the only thing which determines the
course OF a persons life.
DR.. Rorer declared that character is not
only the greatest thing in this world. but
In the next also, and that the success in
life depends entirely upon character
You may measure how much You Ike
a man by his wealth, by his clothes, by
his physical features and by his reputa-
