Income Tax Facts You Should
Know.

Births, deaths, and marriages dur
ing the year 1920 affect materially in
come tax returns for that year.
Millions of babies were added to
family circles, each of whom briggs an
exemption of 500 in the parents in
come tax return.
Widows and widowers who lost their
husbands OF wives during the year are
especially affected. They are single
for the purposes of the income tax law
and are granted only an exemption of
81 600. unless the head of family.
Persons who were divorced orsepa-
rated by mutual agreement during the
year also must consider themselves as
single persons.
The status of the taxpayer on De-
cember31 1920, determines the amount
of the exemptions. If on that day the
taxpayer was married and living with
wife or husband, claim may be made
for the 81, 600 exemption. If single, or
married and not living with wife or
husband on December 81, the eXemp-
ton is only $1,000.
Persons who reached majority dur
ing the year and whose earnings for
that period amounted to $1,000 or
more, or $4,000 or more, according to
their marital status, must lie return
and pay a tax on their net income in
excess of those amounts.
To avoid penalty, the return must
be in the hands of the Collector of
Internal Revenue for the district in
which the taxpayer lives, or has his
principal place Of business, on or be-
fore midnight of March Is, 1921.

Apprentices Increasing.

Despite the existing industrial de-
preston the number of indentured
apprentices in Wisconsin is increas-
ing at the rate of about 40 per month,
according to the Industrial Commits
sion. There is greater interest in
apprenticeship at the present time
than ever before. 1t is now possible
to get as many boys to enter appren-
ticeships as employers may desire.
A number of large employers have
been giving so much attention to APP
premiership and have so many APP
prentices that they have found it
necessary to employ special appren-
ticeShip supervisors.
Wisconsin certificates of appren-
ticeship are recognized throughout
the country. The Industrial Com
mission has received so many in
quiries from employers as to whether
a particular boy has completed a
Wisconsin apprenticeship, as he
claims, that it has now decided that
it will issue small card to gradual
ing apprentices certifying the fact
that they have completed an APP
premiership. This card can then be
carried by these boys and used by
them to establish that they are all
around mechanics.

Your Income Tax Report.

There need be but little trouble to
figure out your income tax. In the
first place it may be worked out by
algebra, astronomy, trigonometry or
syntax and then your answer may be
correct and it may not be. II your
income is S2400 year and you have
a diamond ring an automobile and you
are marriedtO brunette girl, 20 years
of age, you take the amount of the
income and add your personal pro-
perty, subtract your street number,
multiply by your wife's height and
divide by your telephone number
If you have a child in the family, you
subtract $500 from your income, add
your collar size, add the child's age,
multiply by your waist measure. sub
tract the amount of funds you have
given the church in the past year and
then divide by the number of your
automobile license. If there is a
second child, you deduct s40O from
your income tax, add the weight and
age of the child, and divide by the
date of your birth, multiply by the
size of your hat and subtract the
weight of your molher-in-law. After
you have it all figured out, you won't
have to pay any tax of any nature
for they will have you in a BOBBY
Hatch and strapped down.

Every town has a certain number
OF improvements it can look back to
with pride, but the town that sets
out with definite goal in view is
the town that makes the greatest
advancements A great many times
We improve with our eyes shut and
the result is rather a hit and miss
affair Then too, it's much easier to
work If you have some definite goal
to work for. You can talk more con
Wncingly when you are asking for
subscriptions too if people realize
that you are really attempting some
thing worth while.
During war IN all the big drives
for funds the goal was always set
far beyond the mark that most of
MS thought they would be able to
raise, and yet not one of the drives
failed They were all oversubscrib-
ed That 81 ows the value of hitching
your wagon to star.
This Is not only true with the
improvements of a town but with
the improvements of population. We
want our town to grow. Set definite
goal for the population five years
from now and then work steadily to-
ward that goal Naturally your ef-
forts for improvements and for
bringing in new people will overlap
as the more Improvements, the more
modern and aggressive a town is.
the greater number of people will
come to it, providing you let them
know that your town is on the map.
Advertising seems to be an art yet
to be discovered by some people at
least the practical part of it. A con-
slant stream of water from one or
more fire engines will soon extinguish
or get under control, very large fire,
while 1 few buckets of water, dashed
on here and there, have little or no
effect. The modern fire department
is practical and has outgrown the
bucket system So it is with modern
advertising plenty of it, used in n
practical. common sense and udici-
Gus manner, pays.

COSTLY EXAMPLE
| SEEN IN HOTEL FIRE

Hope was expressed by Fire Chief
Watson today that the disastrous
blase which swept the National Hotel
yesterday morning will serve to
awaken the city to the Importance of
fire-prevention week. which begins
Monday.
Chief Watson believes it Is as much
tire work Of the fire department to
seek out causes of fire and compel
their removal as to extinguish
b1aEes.
Since taking Office he has establish
ed the practice of having inspectors
visit regularly all hotels, apartments.
schools and buildings other than pri-
vate homes. Whenever these in
spectors find any condition which
might cause fire they serve notice on
the owner to remove or correct the
dangerous condition.
Although the National Hotel fire
demonstrates that even such rigid in
spection will not entirely remove the
possibility Of fire in large public and
semi public places, fire officials be-
lieve there would be more serious
fires II the department did not carry
on preventive work.
For years the fire department has
detailed fireman to every perform
ance in the speaking stage" theaters
Of the city. Chief Watson believes a
similar detail should be made to every
motion picture house Of a capacity Of
500 or more. With its present limited
personnel. however, 1t would cripple
the department to make such details.
In his last annual report to the Com
missioners Fire Marshal Seib asked
for more inspectors for his fire-pre-
vention squad.
