NOTICE TO OWNERS OF PER-
SONAL PROPERTY

The law provides that all owners

ing in the capacity of fiduciaries
shall make returns to tie county
auditor between February 18th and

Because of the somewhat compli-
Gated system regarding the listing
of intangible property we shall en-
deavor to assist those who wish to
avail themselves of the opportunity
in the filing of their return at the
county auditors office. However,
you are at liberty to go before any
one who has authority 20 admin
lister oaths and make out your list
and mail it to the county auditor
with remittance.
At the time of filing there must
be at least 500 of the amount of
tax listed paid to the county treas
urer. We are sending out blanks
to the rural districts and placing
blanks at convenient places in the
villages, however, failure to re-
ceive a blank does not excuse any
one who owns personal property
from listing.

join in the club. Gloria is II
months old, of course-we do
not know the exact date of
Gloria's birthday. However,
Margaret explains that her lit
tie cousin has beautiful brown
curly hair, and brown eyes. She
already has six teeth.
We judge this photo was
taken last summer, because
Gloria is having the time of her
life on the beach. Gloria never
forgets to carry her bathing suit
and above all her little Mickey

Times Adventure Club
RICHARD S. HOKE

We have another prize Win
ner to add to the well-known
Times Adventure Club. This
cunning little youngster is
Richard Stevenson Hoke, ot
Oxon Hill, Md, whose picture
we are publishing today.
Richard is only nine months
old, birthday December 4. He
evidently stands up most of
the time by holding on to a
chair-as the chair in the pho
to seems to be his support, but
he will soon be making the
grade alone.
The letter inclosing the photo
reads:
''My mother and daddy want
me to tell you Of my winning
the second ribbon in the pretty
baby contest, and how proud
they were of me. The contest
was held at OxOn HILL"
By the way, Richard wishes
to state that this photo was
taken when he was seven
months old. What a boy. You
can't blame mother and dad
for being proud of him.
We congratulate you Baby
Richard. and welcome you to
our club. Perhaps mother will
start keeping a scrap book for
you from now on of the Adven'
Elre Club. You will enjoy it
when you get several years older.

RICHARD STEVENSON HOKE
A lot of the boys and girls
have kept scrap books Of the
club. Also when you grow larger
you might be interested enough
to start a small club of your
own-like a number of the other
members.
Let us know when you win
another contest, so we can put
it in the column. Good luck.
