ROMANCE
By MORRIS GIBBS, SIR.

BY NORRIS GIBBS, SR.
Romance comes to all sometime
Whether in life early or late,
It's sought mostly by the young
For romance helps love find a
mate.
Romance is a will-o'-the-wisp,
It's sometimes here, often hard
to catch
It's tickle but is ever around
Helping Cupid in marriages to
hatch.
Some romances have been blighted
By circumstances unforeseen,
Then the unfortunate one may
never marry
Because others don't appear so
keen.
Many put romance on a merry-go-
round,
Diversion always put foremost,
Many an individual would be con-
tented
If they had some chance of be-
ing first.
More have lost romance through
jealousy
Than any other cause,
Can't keep a friend very long
When one has to get permission
to pause.
Romance has to be treated
Like any other pet;
Has to be coddled, and made over
And forever told they're the best
yet.
Romance is hard to define,
But I've tried to show
It's elusive and lot depends
On the way one starts to go.

Your Federal Income Tax
C O AZ DON'TS

Don't prepare your income tax
return until you carefully read and
understand the instructions accom-
panying the forms. Make out a
work-sheet and check It with the
instructions before filling in the
forms.
DON'T delay in making out your
income tax return. Tax problems
deserve careful study, and tn e
early assembling of your data
expedites this.
DON'T destroy the data from
which your return is compiled.
You will need them for possible
rechecking and verifying the re-
turn.
DON'T overlook any item or
schedule on the form which you
are required to fill cut. They are
all necessary to the exact compu-
tation of your income tax.
DON'T omit any explanation or
information that is essential to a
complete audit of your return.
An ounce of care may save you
a pound of unnecessary expense,
and time and annoyance both tc
you and to your Government.
HOW TO AVOID
COMMON ERRORS
Fifteen million persons, firms,
and corporations, it is estimated,
will probably file income tax re.
turns this. year. These returns be.
gan to trickle in around January
l.. Every return for the calendar
year 1910 must be in by midnight
of March Is. In order to handle
the enormous volume of work
alone entailed of receiving these
returns, the Bureau Of Internal Re
venue has greatly increased its
staff in it's several district offices.
The experience of for1 err years
shows that the Bureau is always
swamped with late returns. If tax
payers will file their returns early.
they will find that this will be
mutually beneficial to them and to
the Government.
A large number of these returns
contain enron which, if not cor
rected by the audit, would result
to the disadvantage of the taxpay'
er. Many persons pay in more thar
the amount of the tax due; others
fail to take advantage of the per.
sonal exemption, the ercdit allow
ed for dependents, or deductions
from gross income to which they
are entitled.
In making out your income tax
return, read carefully and study
the instructions that accompany
the forms on which the tax is com
puted. If you need more informa'
ton, it may be obtained at the
office of the collector of interna
revenue, deputy collector, or an
internal revenue agent in charge
When you visit an internal revenue
office to get assistance in making
out your return, take a copy Of
your 1889 return with you. 3

BY RUTH MILLETT

Motherhood is her career-and she
doesn't let you forget it for a mo-
ment. She belongs to that self-con-
scious sisterhood-the "professiona]
mothers" of America.
She doesn't bore you the way the
old-fashioned doting mama used to.
No, she has her own method.
Her children aren't just normal
human beings. They are Interesting
problems" which she goes about
solving with a career woman's CLINT
in her eye.
A Tolerant, Amused Attitude"
When she gets you aside it isn't
to tell you the cute thing Billy sale
just as he dropped off to sleep last
night. 1t is to tell you about Billy's
latest complex, and the superior
way she is handling it. She is proud
of the fact that she doesn't go ir
for the my darling chatter of the
o~ld-fashioned dQting mama bu'
takes a scientific, tolerant, amused
attitude toward her children.
She looks straight down her NOSE
at the childless woman marking
her off as a selfish no-good-thougf
you suspect she had her own chill
dren to satisfy a craving to fee
superior and important.

1t should be satisfied. For she
never loses an opportunity to trot
out her children, like case histories,
showing how much intelligence and
knowledge can accomplish in the
rearing of small fry.
Making a Career of Motherhood
She isn't a mother at all, in the
old-fashioned meaning of the word,
but a career woman who has made
a career of motherhood.
She gets the same kick out of
overcoming-and then talking about
-Billy's determination not to eat
his spinach that the career woman
gets out of overcoming her boss in
herent prejudice against women ex-
ecutives.
When she gets you in a corner
and starts in on Billy's completes
and you can't get away, look her
straight in the eye and tell her you
believe in the old-fashioned Glove
'em and lick 'em" theory of child
training.
That will stop her long enough
for you to make your ~getaWay-or
change the subject. Because she is
much too intelligent to go on vast
