IN THE
STATE INDICATED
BY TAX RETURNS

Improvement in economic conditions
in Montana is seen on the face of in
come tax returns for 1925, C. A. Ras-
musson, collector of internal revenue
in the Montana district, declared yes
terday.
The total of income tax collections
to date show an increase over the cor
responding date last year Of $4,000,
stated in round figures, or approx
mately 10 per cent; this despite the
fact that exemption were broadened
this year, applying to single as well as
married individuals, and also that the
surtax and the normal rate have been
decreased since last year, said Mr..
Rasmussen.
Apparently this unlocked for situa-
ton can be accounted for in the fact
that great many more corporations
filed taxable returns than was done a
year ago." said Mr.. Rasmussen, "and
also that individuals whose incomes
are more than $4,000 net apparently
have increased their incomes, all of
which reflects greatly improved fl
nancial condition and prosperous bust
ness in Montana"

TAKE A TIP FROM THE MAGGOT OF
MISTY MOUNTAIN

Haven't you in the midst of siege of blue
devils, been forced to assume cheerful
mood for the benft of those about you? And
didn't your mood change because of your
assumed cheerfulness?
Do we, then, smile because we are glad, or
are we glad because we smile? It's delicate
question.
In recent Saturday Evening Post story
entitled The Maggot of Misty Mountain, the
Incompatible George Weston wildly por-
trays how the sembance and the earmarks
of prosperity, however groundless they may
be in the beginning, may change mans
financial state from perjury to indepen-
dence.
All of which involves a principle of human
conduct that our more successful business
men have long since learned to turn to &C.
cOut
If a business man shows the earmarks of
prosperity, if for instance he advertises eff
fectively and regularly do we not eventually
find prosperity stalking at his heels? Is it
not true that men like to take their legal
problems to the successful lawyer and to
buy their clothes from the smart shop and
to have their medicine prescribed by the
busy doctor?
Take tip from the book of human nature
and put on the earmarks of success. Start
with Carbon County News advertising.

Right to Reinstate
War Risk Insurance
Expires July Second

The United States Veterans Bureau
has called upon the American Legion
posts of Montana for their coopera-
ton in calling to the attention of all
ex service men of the World War the
fact that their rights for reinstate-
ment and conversion of war risk in
surance will expire on July 2, 1926.
The records of the last seven years.
since the Armistice disclose that many
dependents of ex service men have
been left without means of livelihood
and have had to call upon the cooper
ating agencies for aid, whereas if the
man had retained part of his war
risk insurance, if not the entire $10,-
900, the dependents would have had
some assurance of at least partial
means of subsistence.
Mr.. R. M. Porter, Commander Of the
local Legion Post, has assured the
United States Veterans Bureau that
he will cooperate in filling out neces--
sary forms for reinstatement if the
ex service men in the community will
make application to him, or to Adju-
tant O. R. Roysdon.
The American Legion believes it in
the nature of duty for the ex serv-
ice man to protect his dependents, and
inasmuch as the United States gov
eminent is offering this protection in
the form of life insurance in several
forms of payments, and it is as cheap
insurance as an ex-service man can
secure, it is incumbent upon him to at
least investigate the possibilities of
it, and reinstate if possible. For those
men without dependents the insurance
contract is as good as can be obtained,
and therefore the Commander urges
that every ex service man take advan-
tage of his rights prior to the expira-
ton date.
G. 7. Busha, Jr., Regional Manager
of the United States Veterans Bureau,
Helena, Montana, has set up special
service in the Helena Regional Office
to take care of all inquiries relative to
insurance, and urges all ex service
men who have dropped their insurance
to look into the question of the advis-
ability of reinstating as quickly as
possible, in order that their requests
can be given consideration.
