On the other hand, Higgins has trot-
out only two successful pitchers--Hoyt

no longer dread the underhand shoots
of Mays, having beaten him on his sec

.I3 TO 10 ON T0DAY'S GAME

New York, Oct. 12.-In the betting

National Leaguers have n robust mar

have been installed the favorites to win
the series at odds Of z TOD.
Betting on the outcome of today's
game was chiefly at IS to 10, with the
Giants the favortcs. The odds took
this decided change not simply because
the Giants won the sixth game and
cyened up the series, but chiefly because
Of the Inability of Babe Ruth to play
and the fact that the majority were Of
the opinion that the Giants had a ,lc-
cded edge in pitching.
Many were Of the opinion that the
morale of the Yankees had been seri-
ously affected by Ruth's absence from
the game. AS one commissioner eX =
pressed il:

same confidence with Ruth out of the
game that they have when he Is playing
This means great deal. and l believe
the Giants will win chiefly because of
this"
With the series even at this stage,
naturally each team has just as many
chances of winning. There are just
four ways in which the series can be
won. The Giants can clinch it by win =
ming the next two; the Yankees can
clinch it by winning the next two; the
Giants may win one. the Yankees one

the Yankees the final.
Thus it might at first appear that the
betting would undoubtedly be at ever

CHURCH ACTIVITIES
FINE SERVICES.

The Evangelistic services in the
Methodist church are awakening great
interest, and are quite successful. The
attendance has been large, and num-
ber of decisions have been made. DR..
Cleworth has proven himself master
in the art of evangelism. His per-
sonality is attractive, and his messages
are both instructive and convincing.
Rev. Davies is a splendid chorus
leader as we'll as singer and preacher.
His message last Sunday night to a
packed house was thrilling and ap-
pealing, and created the atmosphere
of an old-fashioned revival. The meet
ings will continue thru the week at
7:3O each evening, with the exception
of Saturday night, with Revs. Gle
worth and Davies present to assist
the pastor.
The campaign will be closed on
Sunday, and we are planning to make
it great day. The pastor will preach
in the morning at 10:30, and Rev.
Davies will preach in the evening at
1880. Come and enjoy the services and
help the cause. ..-.

REVENUE MAN LEAVES SATURDAY
NOON.

VIM. Lange, of Dubuque, who has
given such valuable help to many in
Manchester and vicinity in making
out their income tax reports, leaves
Manchester Saturday noon, going from
here to Oelwein. Mr.. Lange states
that he is desirous to have all who
want his assistance to meet him In
the basement rooms of the court house
between now and Saturday noon. Mr..
Lange's services have been free and
those who had any dealings with him
have found him very courteous and
obliging official.
II you have not made out your in
come tax report, and need assistance,
it will be to your best interest to
see Mr.. Lange before Saturday noon.
Income Tax Facts You Should Know
Salaries paid to State employees,
including also employees OF. town,
county, or hamlet, are exempt from
taxation. Thousands of persons engag-
ed in business for themselves or as
employees in private business receive
such additional compensation. A store
keeper may be elected mayor OF his
town, The amount paid for such serv-
ice should be entered on his income tax
return, but is not taxable.
Estate employees, however, must
consider carefully their income from
all other sources. If, excluding the
amounts paid them by the State, it
equals or exceeds $1,000 or $4,000, ac-
cording to their martial status, re-
turn of income must be filed and the
tax paid or net income in excess of
those amounts.
The return must be sworn to before
a notary or other person authorized to
administer an oath. The tax may be
paid in full at the time of filing the re-
turn or in four equal installments, due
on or before March 49, June 15, Sep
tember Is, and December Is, 1921. At
least one-fourth of the amount due
must accompany the filing Of the re-
turn.
Salary exemptions allowed State en-
ployees do not apply to employees OF
the Federal Government, such, for
example, as postmasters.

ORGANIZE BROTHERHOOD

On last Thursday evening the men
of the First Evangelical Lutheran
church organized a Brotherhood. The
event of such society had keenly
been felt for some time. Over thirty
men were present, and the enthusiasm
and interest shown by all gave rise
to great hopes for the future. The
officers elected were: d. J. Meggen-
burg, President; R. Jacobs, Vice presi-
dent; George Klotzbach, secretary;
Martin Nieman. Treasurer. Meetings
of the Brotherhood will be held every
first Thursday evening Of the month.
We have no doubt but that the read
ers will hear much more of this live
institution in the future.
