in pressing for an early start be-
cause of current high building costs.
At present, quiet campaign for
funds Is being conducted among
alumnae and other friends of the
school.
Orson Squire Fowler, whose writ
ings also treated of memory, love,
marriage and phrenology. sponsored
the octagonal form for houses in a
book published in 1856. Such house
contains one-flfth more room than
a square house with an equal eX-
panse of wall, Mr.. Fowler wrote.
Many such houses were built, prin-
cipally in New England. Several
were erected in and near Wash
ington.
A Mr.. Bebb built the Kalorama
Heights house. In 1867. it was ac-
quired by Leroy r. Tuttle of Her
kimer. N. Y, Mrs. Morgan's grand
father. Mr. Tuttle was assistant
Treasurer of the United States in
the Lincoln Administration.
A paper by Frank j. Metcalf in
the records of the Columbia His
torical Society tells of Mr.. Tuttle's
having carried millions in currency
to New York in a carpetbag to help
halt a money panic in 1867.
Had Larger Tract.
The tract of land on which the
house was built once reached south
to Decatur place and east to Con-
necticut avenue. 1t originally was
included in the Widows Mite-a
colonial grant made to John Lang
worth in 1864, when the area was
part of Charles County, Md.
The Octagon House, OF frame
construction, was covered with
stucco when bought by Mr.. Tuttle.
Later, he added clapboards. His
son, Mrs. Morgan's father, in
herited the house but built another,
more substantial home on Leroy
place, at Connecticut avenue.
The Holtnn-Armss School ac-
quired the octagon House from the
TuttIe estate. 90 '0'e'' ''@&7

kary|anders Advised
To File State, Federal
Income Tax Together

With Maryland income tax re-
turns due April Is, State officials
have advised Free State residents
to figure out their State tax along
with their Federal income tax.
Payments may be made in lump
sum or in four installments, the first
with the filing of the return and the
others on July IS, September IS and
December Is.
Anyone failing to file return is
liable to a penalty of up to 10 per
cent of the amount due plus interest.
A person who makes a false return
may be convicted of perjury.
Extension Possible.
Under the law, State Controller
James J. Lacy can grant a reason
able time extension for filing re-
turns if "in his judgment, good
cause exists" But such extensions
are not encouraged.
The State tax is figured at 2 per
cent on earned income and 5 per
cent on unearned or investment
income.
Like the Federal Government. the
State provides two tax forms. There
is short form for those whose
income last year was not over $4,000
and who did not receive more than,
S100 from investments. and a long
one for those who made over $4,000
and had more than 500 from in
vestments.
Special forms are provided nom
residents who earned their wages
in Maryland or did business there
with more than $4,000 in sales or
gross receipts.
The short form calculates the tax
with an allowance of 10 per cent
for deductions.
Single Exemption Is $1,000.
Persons in the armed forces sta
toned in Maryland are not subject
to the State tax unless they claim
Maryland as their legal residence.
If the taxpayer was single last
July l, or married but not living
with husband or wife or married
and living with spouse but filing
separate return, he or she is en-
titled to a $1,000 exemption.
Those in three other classical
tions are entitled to a $4,000 exemp-
tion. They include:
l. Those married and living with
husband or wife on July l, 1947
whose spouse had no gross income
for the entire year.
g Those married and living with
husband or wife on July l, 1947, and
whose return includes gross income
of both husband and wife for the
entire year
g. Head Of family "a single per-
son or married person not living
with husband or wife who exer-
cises family control and supports
closely connected dependent rela-
tive or relatives in one household)
on July l. 1947.
Credit Given for Dependents.
For each dependent a s400 credit
is permitted.
The final step consists of writ
ing check or money order payable
to the Controller of the Treasury"
and mailing it to the Income Tax
Division In Annapolis. Mr.. Lacy
warned against sending cash.
If the taxpayer has not received
tax blank from the Income Tax
Division. he can get one from al
most any bank or post Office in
Maryland. They also are available
at the courthouses in Rockville,
Montgomery County. and Upper
Marlboro, Prince Georges County.
