SENATOR GEORGE OFFERS RESOLUTION

Senator George introduced amendment to-the
Revenue Act providing for an exemption of $4,000
for each person under twenty-five years of age who
is dependent upon and receiving his chief support
from the taxpayer and has been in regular attend
ance as student at an educational institution for at
least six months of the period for which the return
of income is made.
Senator George stated, ''this amendment is de-
signed to allow the deduction Of any taxpayer who
has boy or girl eighteen years of age in school
or college. Under the present Revenue Act which
does not allow such deduction the Government is in
fact imposing tax on education and the amendment
is designed to relieve this situation. AS a matter
of common knowledge the education of boys and
girls of eighteen years of age is very much more ex
pensive than the education of children under that
age"
Senator George has also discussed with Secretary
of the Treasury Mellon the establishment of regional
boards in each state or within each section of the
country far removed from Washington, to hear and
to determine income and inheritance tax cases with
the right of the taxpayer or the Government to ap-
peal to a Board of Review in Washington
He urged the Secretary of the Treasury to recon-
mend shorter period of limitation within which the
final liability of the taxpayer must be fixed. Sena-
tor George proposed to offer an amendment to the
Revenue Act requiring the Government to deter
mine the final liability of the taxpayer within TWEEN
ty-fOur months Of the taxpayers return and not
thereafter.

MRS. {. G. GILBERTS
CLASS PRESENTS TWO
SPLENDID PROGRAMS
Raymond Rice

Better late than never" is an age
old adage that is given as an excuse
for many failures. Therefore, we of
fer it for our failure to publish the
review of the play "Miss Fearless and
Company" given by Mrs. f. G. Gil
bert's expression class in the Y. w.
c. A. Auditorium on December Ia.
The play, which was given for the
benefit of the High School Athletic
Association, drew large audience to
the auditorium. The audience was
very appreciative and generous in its
applause.
Miss Lucille Allen, who took the
lead, repeated her success in "Pro-
fessor Pep" Miss Allen was charm
ing in her presentation of the role of
Miss Fearless. She acted her part
with the poise of professional. She
had splendid support in Misses Annie
Louise Comfort, Willie Mae Deary-
bury and Emily Haynes, who por-
trayed the roles of society girls.
Special mention should be given
Misses Francis Benson and Lille Bell
Spence for the manner in which they
acted their difficult parts.
Besides the play several dances
were presented between the acts. The
Argentine Tango as interpreted by
Miss Lucille Allen and Mrs. E. G. Gill
bert received much merited applause.
Children's Recital
In the afternoon Mrs. Gilbert pre-
scented her younger class in recital.
The manner in which the small tots
conducted themselves was remarka-
BILE and showed some excellent talent.
The Duet, "The Quarrel" as given
by Adele Hancock and Charles Wat
son was undoubtedly the hit of the
afternoon. These two little folks lit
orally brought the house down" with
their rendition of their piece.
The several dances were beautiful
~ executed and showed careful train
ing. If one can judge from the grace
displayed in these dances Marietta
will certainly have her share of
graceful southern bellies and beaus.
The feature of the afternoon was
a one act playlet. All the children
played their parts we'll and were very
natural. Again Little Charles Wat
son, portrayed this time as old Santa
Claus, received much applause. This
youngster has big prospects of deyel-
oping into a famous actor some day.
Mrs. Gilbert deserves much praise
for her unceasing labor in preparing
the children.
