Unnecessary Calls
For Information"
Occasion New Ruling

will you please look in your d.
rectory and you will find the num-
Der listed there" is the response
which will doubtless meet inquirers
of Information" in telephone serv-
ice after March l. or course. if
you have lost your directory or your
glasses and the desired number is
in the directory, "Information" will
look it up f6T you. But this added
vocabulary for Information" is
given in order to discourage the
widespread use OF this department,
oft times, when the occasion does
not demand.
This is required by the New Eng
land Tel. ~ Tel. Co. in order to
speed up the efficiency of the serv-
ice. When the directory was small
and the operator could memorize
the numbers of the few subscribers
it was not drawback to use ''in-
formation" at will. 1t has now be-
come necessary to ask all subscrib-
ers to refrain from calling ''In-
formation" operator for numbers
that are listed in the telephone di-
rectory.
This new practice has been found
necessary because OF the growing
calls upon Information" for num-
bers that are already listed in the
tCol;. Information" was primar-
lily installed. not TO duplicate the
directory. but rather to supplement
il with information as to new tele-
phones and other information moi

New B7.Fkheads at
Federal Building

Bullheads have been completed
for the basement windows in the
Federal building. Although the Gus
todian hopes that there will be no
cause to use them this spring. neces-
sary precautions have been taken.
The bulllheads are constructed of
double thickness spruce planks with
an inserted rubber tape between the
planks to secure perfect fit in the
construction.
During the freshet last year. the
bulkhcad in the Federal building
basement was not strong enough to
stand the water pressure and was
forced into the basement. flooding
that section where the furnaces are
located to n depth of about 10 feet.
The old bulkheads were built u
years ago and have been called into
service four times in that period.

FAMILY STATUS
. AFFECTS INCOME
TAX EXEMPTIONS

Hon. Frank ]. Ham of this city,
the collector Of internal reven ue for
the District of Maine. said Wednes-
day that changes wrought by births.
deaths and marriages during the
tax returns for the year 1928, and
millions of babies were added, to
the family circles. For each, the
parents, in addition to the personal
exemptions allowed married couples,
are entitled to a $500 credit for a
dependent.
Boys and girls who become self
supporting and whose parents allow
them the use of their earnings with
out restriction, form new class of
taxpayers. Each must file an in
come tax return and pay tax on
his or her net income. IL such in
come was in excess of $1,000. The
earnings of dependent minor chill
dren who have not been "emanci-
pated"-allowed the use of their
earnings by their parents-must be
included in the parents return of
income.
Widows and widowers who lost
their spouses during the year 1923
are especially affected. Unless re-
married on or before December 81.
1923, or the head of a family. they
are allowed only the $1,000 exemp-
ton granted a single person.
Widows and widowers are not re-
Quired to show on their individual
returns the income of husband or
wife up to the time of death. The
income of a decedent is considered
separately. and a return must be
filed by the executor or administra-
tor of the estate. The executor or
administrator who makes a return
for a decedent is entitled to claim
for him his full personal exemption,
according to his status as single or
married person at the time of death.
In an individual return the tax
payers status as of December 81
1923, determines the amount of his
exemptions and credits. If on that
day the taxpayer was married and
