The payment OF a stock dividend

termined by an appraisal against

tai. The value of tangible property
paid in for stock or shares in an
amount rs limited by Section 1876
of the Revenue Act of 1921 may be
included in invested capital.
The Revenue Act OF 1921 provide
that every corporation, joint stock
company, association and insurance
company not specifically exempt
shall file return. There shall be
included inthe return a statement
which will enable the commissioner
of internal revenue to determine the

during ,ae taxa year for which
the return is i..ade, which have
been distributed or ordered to be
distributed to its stockholders during
such year.
A new and important provision Of
the Revenue Act of 1921 is that
where a corporation is formed or
availed of to prevent the imposition
of a surtax upon its stockholders
by permitting its profits to accum-
ulate instead of being distributed
as dividends, 1t may be subject to
a tax of 25 per cent in addition to
the normal tax of 10 per cent inn
posed on corporations. The stock
holders, however, may agree with
the commissioner of internal revenue
that the profits of the corporation
shall be charged to them in the same
manner as the distributive share Of
the partners, and pay the tax as
partners. When the corporation is a
mere holding company or its profits
accumulate beyond the normal needs
of It's business, this shall be prima
facie evidence of purpose to es-
cape the surtax. A reasonable ac-
emulation of surplus, however is
permitted.
Returns must be filed with the
collector Of internal revenue for the
district in which the corporations
principal place of business is locat-
ed. Corporations must file their
returns on the basis Of their existing
accounting period which is estab-
lished as the 70 month period ending
on December 81 or upon the last
day Of some month other than De-
cember. A corporation cannot
change its accounting period with
out the permission Of the Commits
sioner.

Fighting Diphtheria

Diphtheria is probably the
mos; treachercus of ali children's
diseases. 1t attacks and progresses
quickly There is q specific curative
agent. a%ntitoxin, nut you usually
don't know you have diphtheria un-
til it's too late for antitoxin to have
any preventive effect or to stop the
course of the disease.
Before science had discovered and
applied antitoxin. more than Ia.
the diphtheria cases died. Today
only one out of every eight cases
proves fatal and a great many of
these deaths are the result of DELAY.
1t has been pretty well proved
that every case of diphtheria could
be cured by giving the antitoxin dur
Ing the first twenty-four hours of
the disease.
That this remedy may be admin
istered in time, 1t is necessary to call
in the family physician when the
least suspicion arises.
If the child has a sore throat with
white, iaky deposits on the tonsilr,
it is suspicious. One should not wait
for further symptoms, such as fever
and marked physical depression:
these are signs of an advanced
stage.
A Group cough is suspicious. When
the disease attacks the voice box,
hoarseness and a ringing cough re-
suit, and the victim may soor
strangle from obstruction of the
wind-pipe, caused by the d%iphtherltic
membrane.

picfous symptom. Parents should
