Income Tax
s.. Is Sitnplified

Belinda, the girl reporter, was MAX
Ing out her income tax returns. As
usually happens, she was having
wild time.
In the first place, it must be
worked out by algebra, astronomy,
trlgonometry. syntax, calculus and
palmistry," she lamented, land should
not be undertaken until competent
authority certiies your ability to prove
material products consumed by any
n producing nothing during the
taxable period has an excess, he other
wise would not have possessed"
The rest Of the staff could readily
sympathize and in the discussion that
followed a number of suggestions were
made that might be of interest to
fellow sufferers.
If your income is $2,400 a year and
you own a ton Of coal or a diamond
ring and an automobile, and are
married to a brunette girl 26 years
old, o take the amount of the in

subtract your street number, multiply
by your height, add the date of your
birth. and divide by your waist meas

subtract $500 from your income, add
the amount of your personal property.
subtract the size Of your collar, omit
ting ractions-divide by the square
root Of your telephone number, add
the child's age, subtract the amount
you have given the church during the
past year, multiply by time of day.
divide by 4-11-44. and add the size Of
your hat and without hat bahd. If
there is a econd child in the family,
or you keep a canary, divide the
number of your automobile license
tag, subtract the number of buttons
on your vest, take six per cent of the

return is contemplated, divide the
sum Of her glove n shoe sizes in

After you get it all figured out and
have arrived at an answer, which may
be right, and which probably is not,
you won't have to pay taxes OF any
nature, for they will have you in the

GLACIER TRAIL
TO MEAN \ MUCH
FOR The STATE
Famous Tourist Highway to
Pass Through Grand
Forks.

Atrail which will mean much in
the way of tourist business for Grand
Forks and points west of here has
been routed through this city, accord
ing to Information given out at the
Commercial club today. 1t is the
Glacier Trail, running now from St
Louis to Glacier National park, via
Minneapolis and Grand Forks.
Bert Fuqua of Minneapolis, secre-
tary OF the Glacier Trail association,
was in Grand Forks Wednesday night
comforting with Commercial club Of
flcials regarding the trail. He left
this morning on a trip over the west
ern end of the trail.
. The Glacier Trail has one big adj
vantage for Grand Forks and other
points in northern North Dakota. 1t
connects with points In southern
Minnesota, in Iowa. and in Missouri.
from which districts come the tour
lists who are travelling west. The
greater number OF auto parties. seek
ing lakes, forests, mountains and re-
sorts in the west, come from those
middle states, for the tourists living
in districts contiguous to trails COM
ing from the east get their resorts be-
fore they reach North Dakota.
Consequently, the Glacier Trail is of
expectional importance to this dis
trict. The plan Is to extend the trail
from St. Louis to Florida and from
Glacier National Park to Puget
Sound. 80 that in a very short time it
will be one OF the greatest, If not the
greatest Tourist trail in America. AL
ready, it crosses several. Of the big
trails, such as: Trancontinental;
Gante Fe trail, the National Olds
Highway. the Ocean to Ocean High
way. and the Lincoln trail. From
Hampton, la, to Minneapolis, 1t fol-
lows the Jefferson Highway.
The marking y original and
unique. The association provides its
own posts for all marks. The signs
are In steel, with ename1ed colors on
both sides and are on posts painted
white.
