Oktavec, SO. who is training young men in

staring at them from the street. He painted
a scene on the screen and everybody was
happy - even the man in the street.

AFTER CHRISTMAS HEADACHE

hs probably isn't the proper time be thinking about
It, and certainly not the time to be writing about it. but
income tax just around the and 1855 will bring
with it new look in the tax forms.
If the bright colors at Christmas weren't enough to
dazzle you then wait until you receive your income
tax form.
The 1O40 FORM used by most individual taxpayers with
incomes $4,000, will be red striped for those who
reported less than $4,000 the last time
But if it than the $10000 then proprietors and
members of partnerships will receive blue form and all
farmers in this class will get green form.
Extra plush treatment is reserved for farmers They
get pictures in the bargan-a barn and Silo motif.
There's 1040A form too, for taxpayers with less
than $4,000 income from wages subject to Withholding and
than 500 from other income. This should hit
majority of people in Noble county.
The old letter size form has been reduced check
for in abulang machines and will with return
envelope
But don't be impatient for those bright little forms to
arrive, however. The government started sending it's
forms out at this time last year and many people lost
them before they got around to using them.
Now the filing deadline has been deferred month
until April 18TH and mailing won't start until after the
Christmas rush.
The form will have added features for those
who benefit by the deductions They include dividend
credits child deductions, sick pay and retirement
income exclusions
These benefits however all to your advantage and
shouldn't be any effort to add them if you under
this classification
But the tax look is here to stay with the colors
blending beautifully into your after Christmas thoughts

THE AMERICAN KAY
Merry Christmas

So we come again to Christ
mas. This is not merely a season
of the year, but a time when the
goodness of mankind becomes
manifest, and the miracle of the
nativity holds us enthralled.
1t is 1854 years since the
Christ child came to dwell
amongst men. He was the Prince
of Peace, the Fulfillment of Pro-
phecy, yet he was born in the
poverty of the manger behind the
Inn at Bethlehem that He might
better lead mankind along the
way to freedom and tranquility.
A crown of gold was his for
the taking, for there were multi
tudes then, as there are today,
ready to follow a leader bent on
conquest and plumber. But He
chose a Crown of Thorns, for His
mission on earth was to give, and
not to take.
He taught the fundamental
principles of life by parable and
example, but there were few to
do Him honor. There were still
fewer who would believe in the
Divine principle of individual
liberty, equality and justice
which He gave the world. His
life confirmed the ancient truth
that we are each equal in the
sight of God, and must therefore
be equal in the eyes of the law,
if the law is just.
To establish this concept He de-
fled the pretenses of all who
would assume despotic powers,
destroying the God-given rights
of the individual. That was His
crime. For that He wuS crucified.
Every effort was made to de-
grade and destroy Him, yet today
Christ stands as the central fig
ure in human history. The tinsel
glory that was Rome has long
since crumbled to dust. With it
has vanished the flesh and the

NoOIe county has darn good State highway depart
ment
In all seasons of the year. these employees go unherad-
ed they cope with flood waters, Inundated highways
snowstorms and what have you
The first to hit Noble county occurred last Thurs
day evening and Friday with the state highway called out
to meet the emergency
They did wonderful job and one has only to travel
in neighboring counties to find this out.
u S. Route q was perfectly clear Saturday morning
in Noble county but when you hit the Washington county
line, you found entirely different story
This highway could still be considered hazardous on
Saturday morning and motorS got the impression that
the highway department there had concerned them
selves only with the few major hills and then let go
at that.
The states secondary roads in Noble county are always
in far better shape following than this main
artery of travel in Washington and other counties.
Some will argue that Noble county is much smaller
and the crews give it attention.
But at least the crews out doing everything pos
sble for the safety of the motorist.
The state highway department in Washington county
would do we'll to take few lessons from Noble They could

Of t he Protestant movement.
Never at peace with himself. first
as law student and then as
monk. Luther finally realized that
the religion Of fear and Judgment

The picture takes one through
the opposition he ran into. as he
spread his beliefs from local
sources and from the Pope. La
bella a hereto, he was spirited
away 70 safety by the Duke OF
SaXony.
He did not die at the stake like
some Of his nonconfolmist fore

hefs accepted by mobiles and
theologians alike.
