CATECHISM FOR
THE TAXPAYER
NEW PROVISION OF REVENUE.
ACT IMPORTANT VARIOUS
SOURCES OF INCOME.

With the approach of the period for
filing income tax returns, January
1st, to March Is, 1922-taxpayers are
advised to lose no time in the COM
pilation of their accounts for the year
1921. A new and important provision
of the Revenue Act of 1921 is that
every person whose gross income for
1921 was $4,000 or over shall file
return, regardless of the amount Of
net income upon which the tax is as
sessed. Returns are required of every
single person whose net income was
$l,000.00 or over and every married
person whose net income was 100000
or over. Widows and widowers and
persons separated or divorced from
husband or wife, are regarded as
single persons.
Net income is gross income, less
certain deductions for business ex-
penses, losses, taxes, etc. Gross in
come includes practically all income
received by the taxpayer during the
year; in the case of the wage Garner,
salaries, wages, bonuses and commits
sions; in the case of professional
men, all amounts received for pro-
fessional services; in the cases of
farmers, all profits from the sale OF
land.
In making of an income return for
the year 1921, every taxpayer should
present to himself the following
questions:
What were your profits from your
business, trade, profession or voca-
ton?
Did you receive any interest on
bank deposits?
Have you any property from which
you received rent?
Did you receive any income in the
form of dividend or interest from
stocks or bonds?
Did you receive any bonuses dur
ing the year?
Did you make any profit on the sale
Of stocks, bonds, or other property,
zeal or personal?
Did you act as broker in any trans
action from which you received COM
missions?
Are you interested in any partner
ship or other firm from which you re-
reived any income?
Have you any income from royal
les or patents?
Have you any minor children who
are working?
Do you appropriate, or have the
light to appropriate, the earnings of
uch children? If so, the amount
must be included in the return of in
Ome.
Has your wife any income from any
source whatsoever? If so it must
'e included in your return or report
d in separate return of income.
Did you receive any directors fees
II trustees fees in the course of the
rear?
Answers to all of these questions
re necessary to determine whether a
,ersOn has an income sufficiently
arge to require that return be filed,
md may be the means of avoiding the
eavy penalties imposed for failures
o do so within the time prescribed.

CAR BURNS IN Ditch
EAST OF CITY LIMITS

A large Chandler automobile, own
ed by John Fields, a former resident
of Moscow, but now located at Clarks-
ton, Wash, was destroyed by fire just
east of Moscow, near the Woodwork
place, about o'clock last night 1t
making the turn to the right, after
leaving the city, the car was run into
the ditch, where it caught fire.
Mr.. Fields, who was the only occu-
pant of the car, went to the Wood
worth farm to telephone for another
car to take him home, and stated that
his lights had gone out just before
he reached the turn. He was trying
to adjust them and driving with one
hand when he run the car into the
ditch, which is several feet deep and
filled with water, When he realized
that the car was going he jumped and
he stated that he noticed as he left
the car, that there were flames shoot
ing from underneath. The car plung-
ed into the water and burned down to

ago She has been affiliated with the
M. e. church since her residence here.
Besides her husband, six children
are left to mourn her departure, two
children preceding her in death. Those
living are: Ida Corrin, Moscow; Daisy
Cooper, Meridian, Idaho; Pansy
Brown, Genesee; Bessie Smith, Ar
thur and Sidney Arnot of Troy.
Funeral services will be held FRI

for so years that a Diemer was not
leader of the choir or one of the i'm
portant singers in it. Guido Diemer
took part in the war, first as an artil-
lerist and later as an aviator. In 1919
he dedicated his life to the study of
singing, and shortly afterward ap-

various church concerts.
The Passion Play committee de-

LEGION TO WORK
FOR new BUILDING
CONSTRUCTION WOULD FURNISH
WORK FOR UNEMPLOYED AND
GIVE HOME TO SINGLE MEN.

An energetic campaign for funds
with which to build an American Lee
gion home and club rooms will be
made this year by members Of the
local post.
Frequent entertainments will be
staged during the year, from which
the ex-soldiers hope to raise a sub
stantial sum of money. The Sunday
moving picture shows which they
have been giving lately will be con-
tinued.
The employment offered, if the
legions succeeds in being able to
build, and the home it will offer many
of the men, are two arguments stress
ed by N. A. Thomas, commander.
"The members of Dudley Loomis
Post No. 6, have many plans for the
coming year to raise money for their
home,' says commander Thomas
"These plans consist chiefly of
series of entertainments and the Lee
gion will certainly appreciate the
backing of the good people of Mos
cow
cat present we are running Sun
day matinees at the Liberty. These
have been fairly we'll attended and we
thank all those who have done their
bit in this way. Some people, how
ever, seem to have the idea that it
costs the legion nothing to run these
shows and so when they go past the
tin hat, they drop in few pennies or
a nickle, thinking that whatever is
made on the performance is clear
profit This is not So These matt
nees cost the legion about $50 each
The past few Sundays we
have just made expenses and this is
not very encouraging to the boys.
eff folks would stop and think for a
few minutes they would realize that
our matinees are on par with any
they see in Moscow. We set no price
but it is only fair to expect at least
two-bits or if they have it, the regular
show price.
eff everybody felt this way about it,
the Legion bank account would soon
swell to such proportions that we
would be able to start our building.
"Our home will not only give en-
ployment to many in Moscow during
it's construction but will do much to
benefit our city. When you get down
for Moscow, so let's all get together
and push this thing Make a New
Year resolution to come out to the
Legion affairs. You will get your
|orth and help the fund be-
sides.
Push as you did when the boys
we're over there. They knew the folks
1T home were doing their best and its
he same today. The people of Mos
COW want to see Legion build that
lome and will help if they are given
he plain facts and the right oppor-
unity. That opportunity is given
on Sunday afternoons at the
Liberty and at any other entertain
nent that Legions puts on throughout
he coming year"

IRELAND Seems SURE
TO RATIFY TREATY

London-(A. PIT has been learn
ed from a reliable source, says Cen
trail News dispatch from Dublin to-
day, that secret meetings of the Dali
Eireann leaders, representing sup
porters and opponents of the Anglo
Irish treaty, have reached compro-
mise which will insure ratification of
the pact.
A statement was issued here today
from Premier Lloyd George declaring
that the government had gone to .he
utmost limit in the Irish treaty and
that it was impossible to reopen the
discussion. He said that the delay
in ratification is holding up the work
ing of the cabinet committee appoint
ed to arrange an evacuation Of the
British forces in ireland and to set
tie the terms of amnesty and trans
fer the executive responsibility to the
Irish provisional government.

CHRISTMAS CUTS
CHAMBER CROWD
AND BUSINESS LINZ
TIED AT WEEKLY LUNCHEON
COMMITTEES REPORT

1t was evidently too soon after
Christmas for a majority of the busi-
ness men and members of the uni
versity faculty to feel any deep in
terest in the chamber of commerce
today, and as a result the attendance
was the lowest in several months and
the business session which followed
was a brief one.
Several communications of little
Importance were read by Secretary
Rowe and ordered filed. J. S. Hecka-
thorn made a final report on the ex-
penditures in connection with the
entertainment of the North Idaho
chamber of commerce, and a vote of
thanks was rendered the University
of Idaho faculty for the part taken in
entertaining the visitors.
The committee in charge of having
road signs placed in the Moscow dis
trict reported that So signs had been
put up, on the various roads leading
to Moscow. The signs are substan-
tial and plainly 1ettered and each
sign shows the number Of miles to
Moscow, the distance being figured
from the corner of Main and Third
streets. The lumber for the signs was
furnished by the various lumber COM
panies in the city, the signs were
made by the Roth Construction com
pany and the painting was done by
r. B. Ward. The expense of putting
the signs up will be met by local
business houses.
Rev. Dean Hamilton, chairman of
the committee in charge of securing
funds for the work of the University
Christian Federation, through which
the student pastor, Rev. j. Orrin
Gould, is maintained here, reported
that the work had been organized and
that the dates set for raising the
were January to Is. A card
index has been prepared and sub
committees have been appointed from
each organization in the city, to work
in conjunction with the chamber of
commerce committee. 1t is the pUr-
pose of the committee to give every
an opportunity to con-
tribute and it is believed that little
will be experienced in Sc
curing the community quota of $500.
Lawrence Huff, proprietor of Tufts
cafe, was present, and expressed his
pleasure at being able to work with
The chamber of commerce.
Jay Woodworth, who recently re-
turned from Canada, where he has
been looking after the extensive ag-
ricultural interests of Dr. G. L. Grit
man, was present and spoke of con-
litions as he finds them here, stating
hat he had not found any place that
s as good, one year with another, as
he Palouse country. Mr.. Woodwork |
S here to spend the winter.

CHARGES DRIVER With
HAVING STOLEN GOODS

Charged with having stolen prop
serty in his possession, Roy Griffith
was placed under arrest today as she
stepped off the train from Seattle.
Works from a music box owned by
Mrs M. L. Sargent, language profess
sor at the university, which recently
were found missing from a local
warehouse were found in his possess
sion and identified by Mrs. Sargent.
Griffith also had number of tools,
a quantity Of bearings and some
boxes, the latter were identified as
property of the Harvester company
by James Richards, superintendent,
all of which are believed to have been
stolen. A 81 or SO brace, similar to
one recently lost by Carl Smith, was
also located but other than saying it
was identical to the one he lost, he
was not able to identify it.
Griffith admits taking part Of the
music box, saying he needed some of
It to repair an emery wheel he was
fixing, but claims he bought the tools
at various cities on the coast where
he has been.
He was in the custody of the sheriff
this afternoon and the preliminary
hearing, at the time of going to press,
had not been set.
Officers believe that considerable
stolen property may be traced to their
man. Griffith lately has been en-
ployed as a truck driver for Hagan &
Gushing and this summer drove
truck for the highway department.

LIBERATED z DAYS
DEBS BREAKS Law
SYMPATHIZERS WELCOME HIM
ON HIS TRIP HOME; WILL
FIGHT FOR PEACE

Washington-(A. P.)-Freed by
President Harding from Atlanta fed
eral penitentiary, Eugene v. Debs
socialist leader, was reprimanded to-
night by Union station police for max
ing speech without permit before
leaving for his home in Terre Haute,
Ind.
Before boarding his train Debs ad-
dressed a crowd of several hundred
persons in the station, including ad-
mirers who had come to say good
by, expressing his gratitude for his
reception in Washington and closing
with reiteration of his opposition
to war and belief in the force of
love in the redemption of the world.
No effort was made by uniformed
police in the crowd to interfere with
the address, but Immediately upon
its conclusion a plain clothes man
rushed up to Debs and asked if he
had a permit to speak in the station,
and upon being informed in the
negative, declared: "You have taken
a great liberty"
Debs, who had grasped the plain
clothes man by the hand under the
impression that he was well
wisher, apologized and said he had
not known he was doing wrong.
Regulations Of the station forbid
speech-making without a permit.
Debs' speech was his first platform
utterance since leaving prison.
"I WISH" he said, ''to do myself
the justice to return my grateful
thanks for the kindness shown we
here. also wish to express my
gratitude to the representatives Of
the press, whose courtesy, fairness
and kindness have been beyond ex-
preston.
"Many disagree with me in an
economic and social way, but we are
all human and one touch Of nature
makes the whole world kin
Eugene v. Debs was given the
lighted lantern here today as "an
honest man."
Urbain Ledoux, who once sold
labor on an auction block Of Boston
commons and later picketed the
conscience of the arms conference
delegates here, made She presenta-
ton.
Like Diogenes, he said, he had been
carrying the lantern in search of an
honest man. "But since I have met
you," Ledoux said, IT have no further
use for il"
Debs accepted the lantern with
thanks, but declared himself un-
worthy of it.
In a message to socialists, made
public tonight, Eugene V. Debs de-
clared his release from Atlanta peni-
tentiary on Christmas day was due to
the loyal support he had received from
American socialists.
"My lips are not sealed and my
are not curtailed," he
said.
II am an enemy of the capitalist
class and in me they shall find no
comfort as long as there is breath in |
my body.
"The administration that put me in
prison knew that and that is why :
I was there. The present administra
lion also knew it and kept me there"

Here Is Proper
Mounting Method
For Side Tires

The proper method OF mounting
straight side tires is to lay the rim
on the moor inserting the valve
stem Of the tire in its proper place.
The bead for ten inches on both
sides OF the valve should then be
forced into place. After starting
the tire in this way. 1t should be
forced into place further by stamp.
ing on It. first on one side and then
on the other. Stamping in this way
will let the operator seat the tire
easily as general thing. though
1t is sometimes necessary to resort
to tire tool. The ends of the rim
may be brought into place by means
of a screwdriver to use in prying.
and care. must be used not to get
the wrong end OF the rim on top.
This method is for use when a rim
expending and contracting tool is
not available, as this latter saves
much time and trouble and should
be in every tool box.
