YOUR INCOME TAX

In making out his income tax for
the year 1924 the business man, pro-
fessional man, and farmer is required
to use form 1910, regardless of whe-
Their his net income was or was not in
excess Of - coo. The smaller form
of $4,000 or less derived chiefly from
104OA is used for reporting incomes
salaries or wages.
Forms have been sent to persons
who last year filed returns or income.
Failure to receive a form, however,
does not relieve the taxpayer from his
obligation to file a return and pay the
tax within the time prescribed, on or
before March Is, 1925. Copies of the
forms may be obtained from offices of
collectors of internal revenue and
branch offices. The tax may be paid
in full at the time of filing the re-
turn, or in four equal installments,
due on or before March Is, June Is,
September Is and December Is.
The Wolf Point herald. (Wolf Point, Mont.) 1913-1940, 1925-02-05
SAFE; FILE A
RETURN"
OF TAX COLLECTOR

"Play safe-file a return!" is the
slogan advocated by Charles A. Ras-
musson, collector of internal revenue
for the district of Montana, in sug-
gestions to all taxpayers who must
file income tax returns before March
Is, 1925.
Under the provisions of the Revenue
Act of 1924, the collector is no longer
authorized to grant extensions of time
within which to file income tax re-
turns. All persons or firms desiring
an extension of time for the filing of
returns should make application there
for direct to the commissioner of in
ternal revenue, Washington, D. c., and
such application should be mailed in
time to reach Washington before
March Is.
Under the revenue act of 1924 all
corporations who paid dividends
amounting to $500 or over to any n
individual, partnership or corpora
ton during the calendar year 1924
must file an information return on
form 1897 with the commissioner of
internal revenue on or before March
Is, 1925. Blanks can be obtained upon
request from the collector. Stock divi-
dends and liquidating dividends need
not be reported.
Earned Income.
The new act provides for a 25 per
cent reduction in the tax due on earned
incomes up to $4,000, and that all
incomes of less than $4,000 shall be
considered earned. Therefore, if your
net income is less than $4,000, you
should first compute the tax at 2 per
cent and then reduce the tax by de-
Quoting o%ne-fourth thereof.
The 1924 income tax law, while it
very materially reduced the normal
tax rates, and altered some of the adj
ministrative provisions of the law, did
not in any manner relieve the liability
of taxpayers to file returns. The in
ternal revenue bureau is continually
confronted by the fact that a number
of taxpayers seemingly cannot escape
the conviction that because their net
earnings do not reach the amount
they are allowed by personal
exemptions as heads Of families, it
is unnecessary for them to file a re-
turn. This is entirely erroneous. Any
person, widow or widower,
net income is $1,000 or more,
must file a return, regardless of what
his or her exemption may be. Any
individual who is married and whose
net income is $1,000 or more, must
file a return, regardless of what his
exemptions may be. Any individual
gross income, as defined by the
regulations, is in exces of $4,000 must
also file a return.

REVIEW OF SCHOOL
AFFAIRS FOR WEEK
Continued from Page One)

Wolf Point high school at Bozeman
this week. Dean Swanson was high
point man at the Poplar judging con-
test but found it impossible to go to
Bozeman. The Great Northern rail
way pays the fare and the boys stand
the balance Of the expenses. These
young men will hear experts from all
parts of the United States and Can
ada discuss the professions and vo-
cations which are open to young
men.
The church teams are playing some
good basketball in the gym Thursday
evenings. At the last session, the Lu-
therans defeated the Catholics II to
8. The Presbyterians and Methodists
had a hard battle. An extra five-min-
ute period was necessary to decide the
game. The final count was Is to 10
in favor of the Presbyterians.
One of the largest crowds since the
tournament. saw the Wolves go down
to defeat before the hard hitting Glas-
cow outfit. All of the roofing in the
world couldn't wake our fellows up.
This week they came to and walloped
the heavy Bainville team but on Sat
urday night allowed the old rival,
Poplar, to double the score on them.
The tournament this year should be
the best ever. All of the teams in the
district seem to be evenly matched.
The Wolves will have to do some real
work between now and then if they
expect to ever be in the race. A few
more games may give them the stead
mess which they need in the pinches.
Future Schedule
Culbertson will be here on February
6. Our girls and the mems volley
ball team will go to Glasgow on the
evening of Feb. 10. On Feb. 10, Wolf
Point plays at Culbertson and on the
18th at Bainville. The last game of
the season is with Poplar here on
Feb. 16.
The girls fought hard in the game
against Froid on Thursday night but
were outclassed by the more expert
enced players. Froid has no boys
team at all, so all of the coaches time
is given to the girls team. Our girls
have only been out since Jan. 5 and
then only practice twice a week, so we
can't expect them to win victories.
About 35 pupils have enrolled in
the typewriting classes.
Forty-three of our high school pu-
pills took the state Bible examination.

viduals who are not certain as to their
income and as to their liability, should
file a return if in doubt. Every COR
poration, partnership or individual en-
ploying help is required under the law
to furnish the commissioner a form
known as number 1899, giving a list
of their employees and the salaries
paid to them. 1t is often found that
these concerns have failed to enumer-
ate all of their employees, and it then
becomes necessary to call on the indi-
viduals and make an investigation as
to the amount of salary received, or
the reason for failing to file a return.
Very often these concerns neglect to
give the information as to whether or
not their employees are single or mar
ried. A check-up is made against this
list bv the bureau when the returns for
the current year have been filed. In
that case, a married man whose sal
airy was less than $1,000 would be cal
led upon to furnish the needed infor-
nation, to straighten the matter out.
Thus the individual is put to an un-
necessary loss of time and expense in
appearing before the collector or dep
uty collector, to answer the questions.
This causes irritation and friction for
which the taxpayer cannot well be
AS an illustrations: In the
year 1923, over 1000 individuals in
Montana failed to file returns, and
accordingly were subjected to penal
ties and the filing of offers in com
promise. This could have been avoid
ed had these taxpayers filed returns.

The Essex Of Nantucket In 1919 met
this fate: The captain and first mate
being fast to big sperm whale, Owen
Chase, second mate, headed the ship
toward them. The whale came to the
surface and fiercely rammed the ship
bow on, stopping her as II she had
struck a rock. 1t passed under the
ship, scraping her keel and coming
up astern. After swapping its laws

Tut's Coffin Removed From Tomb

Cairo, Egypt.-The inner coffin of
Tut-ankh-Amen's sarcophagus, con-
tanning the mummy, has been remov-
ed from the Paroah's tomb to that of
Seti II, near by, for examination. The
coffin, which is of human shape, with
a painted face believed to represent
the features Of the young king him
self, is one Of the most beautiful
pieces of work discovered by the
Psychologists. The mummy, however,
was found to be adhering to the sar-
caphagus, owing to the liquids pour
ed oversit in the ceremonies whereby
the pharoah was dedicated as a god.
