Noise of Cheers
For Queen Sets off
Swornrs of Flies
!, By the Associated Press

BATHURST, Australia. Feb.
12.-Spnshine and flies greeted
Queen Elizabeth II today as the
royal tour moved to the western
district of New South Wales.
The monarch and the Duke of
Edinburgh flew in an Australian
Air Force Dakota to Bathurst,
$50 miles west of Sydney. More
than 100000 people cheered as
they drove to the town hall.
But the cheers of $4,000 school
children at a showground later
touched off a not-so-welcome
greeting from common Austral-
ian flies and other insects.
The noise set the pests to
swarming as the couple drove
slowly through the ranks of the
children. The Queen and the
Duke had a busy time trying to
wave to the children, brush away
the flies and hold on to the rail
Of their jeep at the same time.
Later today the Queen visited
Lithgow and Katoohba and re-
turned to Sydney by train.

You and the Tux Low
10 Million Persons to Benefit
Under Deprec otion Deduction

you would deduct $4,880 instead
Of the $4,000 under the old law.
At a IS per cent tax rate, that
would be an actual tax cut Of
$470 the first three years.
Under the "sum OF the years
digits" plan. the rate deductions
is a fraction. The denominator
Of the fraction is constant the
sum of all the numbers In the
useful life. In the example
above. that would be / plus, 2
plus. 3 and so forth up to 10.
That gives you a denominator Of
55.
The numerator of the fraction
starts with the number Of use-
full years, or 10. It declines by
one number each year. Each
year you apply this fraction to
your total cost, to figure the de-
duction.
Thus the first year your de-
duction in this example would
Evening star., 1954-08-09

be lOt55ths Of $4,000. or ST ,818.
The second year 1t would be
9I55ths Of $4,000. or ST, ,636.
The, third year it would be
8i55tEs. or $1.454. and so forth
until the tenth year your deduc-
ton would be 1i55th, or oniy
$l82.
In this case, your deductions
the first three years would total
81. .908. This compares with
$4,000 under the old straight
line method AN additional de-
duction Of ,9o8. II you're in q
IS per cent tax bracket, that
would be an actual tax cut Of
$477 the first three years.
Still other methods are al
lowed, but none Of the others
may exceed the declining bal
ance rate at any one point dur
ing the first tWo-thirris Of useful
life. You can use the declining
balance method for part Of the
period, and then shift at any
time to the straight-line method
Of deducting your remaining bal
ance Of cost.

Dear Homemakers;
We have just finished up a
good week of Institutes at Car
Isle, Sarahsville, and Summer

an outstanding speaker, center
ing her thoughts around family
living, and she surely speaks
from experience, having four
children under Is years of age.
Carlisle served their lunch in
the new cafeteria at the grade
school. This cafeteria, l under
stand, was quite a venture and
that the community folks really
put forth community service in
making this cafeteria possible
for the school children. Summer
field had their first institute in
the past eight years.
Outstanding on their program
was the mems chorus of the
Methodist church. Good work!
Not only would you have lots of
fun singing together, but it
shows community spirit! BY the
time you read this column, the
institutes at Batesville, Sharon,
Renrock and Harriettsville will
te on Friday.
be over with the Jackson in
stitute Friday.
Saturday is a big day for Ex-
tension people! Homemakers
have their plans well lined up
for the Christmas at Home Show
to be held Saturday, November
18th. ! understand that the Jr.

gagged in scouting the country
side for 100 cakes for their Cake

Both of these events are open
to anyone who wants to come, so
why not make the two stops
when you are in Caldwell, Sat-

After a months absence, |
know you prophets have given
me up as a seasick casualty, but
| have news for you: This Noble
countian on the MS Gripsholm
didn't get seasick at all! l was
one of the fortunate few and am
most thankful for it, too, believe
me.
To go back some weeks, l first
of all want to thank all of you
friends who were so wonderful
to present me with going away
gifts. Yours truly really appre-
ciated everything, plus all the
kind gestures those last days at
home. Q'll expect a bill for a
card of thanks from the Journal

you in the best Of health and
spirits, especially following the

learning the results of all the is
sues as soon as possible. How
about an air-mail report, John?
Following that Monday after
noon, when my father and Mrs.
7. M. Ehlermann put me on the
train at Parkersburg, | had an
train ride to Jersey
City. In the very early morning
hours at New Jersey, l found out
the dock workers at New York
had walked out at midnight and
that caused me no little concern,
to say the least. From And Street
Station in New York | took a taxi
and chance, and headed for pier
No. 81, where the Gripsholm was
tied up. There we met a wall of
pickets and cops but l finally
managed to get my baggage in
side with no porter help, like
everybody else.
A phone call back TO the pier
from my hotel assured me that
the Gripsholm would sail as
scheduled Wednesday morning,
strike or no strike. At this time
the papers were full of stories
and pictures of passengers of the
Queen Mary, including a lot of
celebrities, hauling their own be-
from their ship. The big
liner had docked Tuesday morn
ing, just in time for the strike.
Thanks to Seaman George Nc
Garry, who calls Crooked Tree
his home, l saw my share of the
fabulous city's sights Tuesday
night. I'll never forget looking
over the city at night from the
observation towers in the Empire
State building too breath
taking to describe! Also visited
st. Patrick's cathedral, just in
Time for benedietion services that
evening. Had my first subway
ride and the climax of the even

duction at Radio City hall, Rookie

that fell that evening failed to
