ceipt the boss gives you for taxes
withheld from your wages or salary
In 1916.
If you worked for more than one
boss who withheld tax from you, get
o form W. receipt from each. You
can't, without all the receipts, make
q return on form W.. Without
them all, you'll have to use form
1040.
When you have them all, attach
them to the form W. receipt from
your last boss. That last one Is the
one you fill out and file. Don't fill
out the others.
And-don't send money with 1t
when you I'LL it out and mail 1t to
the" internal revenue collector.
He'll check 1t. II you owe him
money, he'll notify you. After he
notifies you, you have 80 days to
pay.

You'll get a refund II, in checking
your return, he finds too much tax
was withheld from you in 1916.
Husbands and wives don't have to
worry about filing jointly or sep
arately If they both had 1916 income
and can use form W. as separate
or joint return.
They don't lose either way. When
he gets their joint or separate re-
turns, the collector by lew must
figure out which way is cheaper for
them.
If he finds there's any refund due
them, he'll SEND it to them.
The form Wa you get from your
boss Is original" and duplicate"
Fill in the original" and send it to
the collector. Keep the duplicate"
On the original" the boss has

That's all on the front Of the
"original.'" You don't do anything
on the front. Except to be sure
your name and address are right
Questions to Be Answered.
Turn it over. You answer simple
questions on the back.
Here's how:
Say you're married and have two
children. Your income was $4,000
from salary. CYour children had
income under $500 but a dependents
income under $500 doesn't count, so
forget it, But your wife had income
Of $95 in dividends from stock.
On line No. you write your
salary: $4,000. On line No. 2 you
write your wife's sos from dividends.
Adding them up, you write the
total, 1895, on line No. 3.
You write your wife's name on
line No. 4, where it asks you to.
CYour name, written by the boss,
already is on the front.)
Then you write mo" to the ques-
ton: Did your wife have any other
income besides the $s5.
Write in Income.
Then underneath that, where 1t
asks, write your income, $4,000, and,
right beside 1t, your wife's income

Underneath that, where 1t asks,
write your occuptton. 2 {c.
Now move across to where 1t tells
you to list your exemptions.
You can claim your two children

Dan William, Jr.
Insane Friends
Say Here !.

Dan Williams, Jr., former Jack
lson Negro lawyer, principal in
the shooting in Washington last
Friday, in which two white men
were killed and two others were
wounded before Williams himself
was. brought down by two pistol
wounds, has long been of "un-
sound mind" according TO state
ments of close personal frienls
here.
Williams first came to Jackson
as a student of Jackson College
in 1881. While a student at Jack
son College he was sent TO the
State Asylum for the Insane
where he remained for several
months.
According to reports Williams
became obsessed with the desire
to become a lawyer while work
ing as a yard boy for Attorney
George Butlr, prominent local
white lawyer. After completing a
correspondence course in law,
Williams took the State Bar ex-
aminations six consecutive times
until he passed the examination.
Starting practice here in 1912
he was disbarred last March upon
Complaint of a local white law
yer who charged that he had
perputiated fraud upon the
court in obtaining a divorce de-
gree.
Friends say that following the
filing of the disbarment proceed
ings Williams began to show
