CURED OF SHYNESS

A shy young man had been calling on "the sweetest girl in the world" for many months, but, being bashful, his suit had progressed slowly.
 Finally she decided she ought to set things going, so the next time he called she pointed to the rose in his coat and said, "I'll give you kiss for that"
 A crimson flush spread over his countenance, but the exchange was made. Then he grabbed his hat and started to leave the room.
 Where are you going?" she asked in surprise.
 "TO the-er-forist for more roses" he called back from the front door.

There are many people in Flagstaff and many more in the state whose net income exceeds s10,000 a year; quite a number whose net income is more than $50,0O0 year. Hence there is a lot of money due from the government to local people who have been paying income tax under the old ruling. And the refunds will be claimed, without delay, if the new ruling becomes eff fective.

CHANGES GOOD FOR
 INCOME TAX REFUND

Senator Ashurst telegraphed vari- ous Arizona people last Saturday that he hoped the U. s. department of Justice would within very few days - render an opinion upholding the valid ity of Arizona's laws governing the community of property as between phusband and wife. In that case the U, s. government would have to re- fund lot of money to the large in come taxpayers of this state.
 The refunding would be to married men who during this and preceding years made returns on incomes netting more than $4,000 above all exemp- tionS.
 r Texas has profted by its state com munity lawS-that is the. laws which say that the wife has an equal right with the husband in all the family property-and the married income tax payers of that state have thereby sav- ed many hundred thousand dollars. Arlzona's law is as specific in protect ing the wife's rights to an equal share in her husbands property as the Tex as law is; in fact, is almost identical with the Texas law.
 But Tn Texas there have been num-
 
 erous court decisions upholding the community law. The U. S. govern ment has ruled that its interpretation of the income tax regulations cannot conflict with state community laws Heretofore the government, while ad- hitting that Arizona'S community laws are definite and adequate, held that they were not enforced and were not in actual operation. Attorney General Palmer, therefore, refused the community rights to Arizona income taxpayers that he granted to income taxpayers in Texas. Following are tables showing the difference between the old and the new ruling in the effect on incomes of S10,0O0 and S50,000: Sl0,000 net income 2,O0O personal exemption

manifested in these meetings; in re-
suits they are far beyond the great

and especially those of high school
age. The young people nobly re-
sponded to the invitation so that the
entire tier of center seats was filled
by them.

the conduct of the meetings, it was
that of certain persons who had
brought their offering with them, and
had to carry it home because no col

proceeded at once to set that matter
right, and did so to the satisfaction
of all concerned.
