The Tickville Fire Department Is re-
ceiving encominums of praise on ac>
count of the promptitude 1t manifested in
responding to an early morning con-
Migration on Main street this week. The
fire wagon is said to have exceeded all
previous records, even in the memory
Of the Oldest citizens, but this might
have been due to the fact that It was
hard pressed, close behind, by a runa-
way team Of mules.
Fletcher Henstep says It is a mystery
to him how so many married women can
come out in public looking real nice and
dressed up, when every one of them will
admit that they haven't thing on earth
III to wear.

TAXINCOMES
NOT ALL CASH,
THURMAN SAYS
Revenue Collector Tells Tax
payers to List Full
Returns.

that taxable income is not necessarily
cash. NJ Bert Thurman, collector Of In
ternal revenue, said today. In speaking
Of this Collector Thurman said:
Where services are paid for with
something other than money, the fair
market value Of the thing taken in pay
ment is the amount TO be included in in
come. For example the value Of mer-
chandise received by a clerk OF a grocery
store as part payment for his services
must be reported as income Compen-
sation paid an employe Of a corporation
in shares OF stock is to be treated as II
the corporation sold the stock at its
market value and paid to the employe
in cash
NOTES RECEIVED N
PAYMENT INCOME
"Promissory notes received IN payment
for services and not merely as security
for such payment constitute income to
the amount Of their fair market value.
Living quarters and meals furnished as
compensation for services are to be re-
ported as income A hotel clerk given
his room and his meals as part payment
for his services IS required TO report as
AuCunt the ne Huu4Q nave u pay
for board and lodging elsewhere.
''The value OF quarters, light and heat
furnished army officers, whether sta
TONED at an army post or paid from
funds allowed for such purpose when
officers are stationed elsewhere Is tax
able income IN an amount equal to the
cost to the government Of furnishing
such quarters, etc. Where an officer or
enlisted man is allowed certain COM
mutation Of quarters, hight and heat, the
entire amount received for such purposes
for the taxable year must be included
in Gross income.
where living quarters, food, clothing,
etc, are provided for an emplOye solely
for the convenience OF an employer, the
value thereof need not be included in the
income Of the employer For example
where because Of the location and na-
ture Of the work, it is necessary that
employees engaged in fishing and can
ming be furnished board and lodging by
the employer, the value OF such board
and lodging may be considered as con-
tributed for the convenience Of the en-
ployer. Board and lodging furnished
seamen in addition to their other com
pensation is held to be furnished for the
convenience OF the employer, and the
value thereof need not be reported IN
the return Of such employer. Uniforms,
ratiOns and medical or hospital service
afforded enlisted men or seamen need
not be reported as income. These are
furnished By the Government for its own
purposes and are not compensation for
services
