cess of family status exemptions for
any period beginning on July or
thereafter.
Withholding is made compulsory
by law and the employers must be
governed accordingly. Mr.. Penwell
went on to state that it is the duty
of every employer in the state of
Montana to call this matter to the
attention of his employees in order
that they may prepare certificate
of exemptio non Form Wa disclos-
ing their correct family status for
exemption purposes, and file same
with the employer for his guidance
in determining the amount of the
employees salaries or wages sub
ject to the withholding tax. In the
event that no exemption certificate
is furnished, the employer is re-
CURED to withhold 20 per cent of
the total wages paid.
If the employer does not have a
supply of the necessary Form WA,
which is to be used by the en-
ployee in preparing his exemption
certificate, he should requisition a
supply from the Collector of Inter-
nal Revenue at Helena and see that
they are made available to his en-
ployees.
All classes of workers are subject
to this Withholding, except those
specifically exempt by law inclnd=
ing members of the armed forces
of the United States, domestic and
farm labor, and ministers of the
gospel
Mr.. Penwell urges that employ
ees take advantage of their rights
in claiming the exemption to which
they are legally entitled and file
their certificates with their en-
ployers Immediately. The employ
ers should take the necessary steps
to collect the tax each pay period,
and protect themselves from any
penalties which may accrue as re-
suit of their failure to comply with
the provisions of the Act.

well, go get some new ones"
Cali right, darling. I'll 60 and
get some records-and might as
we'll get the ice cream, too. But
I'd better telephone the bunch
first"
Bring Grace back with you,"
Mona Lee instructed her. "She's
all alone and sort of upset-Oli-
ver's gone to Corpus Christi"
II should think she would be
upset, living with that drip! Do
you want to 60 along?" she asked
Gary, somewhat stiffly."
"Thank'S no. I'd better clean
up a little" He went upstairs.
Hes all soured up, just be-
cause I asked him why he didn't
get a job in a bank or some
place" Adelaide glared after his
departing back. 1--WE had a lovely
fight"
Dinner was a hurried meal on
the breakfast table, with Adelaide
stiff and distracted and Mona
Lee jumping up every few minu-
ties to give directions to Maria.

Adelaide, ate lettuce sandwich
and half grapefruit and insisted
on coffee without cream or sugar.

had gone to dress. Grace sat sip

his wildcat proposition? she said.
"rve tried to persuade him
against it," Gary said, "but with
no success. So I've decided to stay
on and try to keep him from too
much grief"
eff he insists on doing it-and
he will, he has always been ter
ribly hard-headed - he really
should have someone with ex-
perience I suppose you've
worked in oil, but you are quite
young-Td feel better about it
if he would hire an experienced
man."
Gary got up and lighted ciga-
rette. II know you haven't much !
confidence in me, Mrs. Kimball, |
but I do know oil"
ooh, undoubtedly. But working |
on a rigging crew-you did that,
didn't you?-isn't a lot of pre-
paration for a big oil venture like
this. So you gave up going to
Mexico?" |
Il had to, or appear definitely
1t isn't happy situa-
ton for me, Mrs. Kimball, and
not one I would have chosen for
myself. However, I'm in tive
are all in it-and there's nothing
to do but carry on"
He bowed himself out as grace
fully as he could, but his skin
was tingling and anger tasted like
copper on his tongue. He was
thankful when the party was
over.
Harvey Mason came back, very
jubilant, with his drilling permit
in his pocket

guys" he admitted. RAILROAD |

many wells down noW-but I got

Hadn't we better see about the
water before we 60 any further?"
Gary asked. "There's no use NOV

we're sure about the water"
Ought not to have any trouble |
about that" Harvey was bland. |
