WHEN the evening shadows gather
anil the time is eight o'clock
Vou can hear, if you will listen, Mr
Sand Man's gentle knock.
Then you'd better bustle lively -time your
evening prayers were said
And each boy and girl well tucked In
their cozy, downy ll?tle bed.
For when Mr. Sand Man's knocking
sounds the signal, you may know
Santa Claus is close'.y watching from his
palace built of snow.
And the children that are naughty and
don't mind their ma's and pa's
Jet their names down in the "Bad Book"
that is kept by Santa Claus.
Boys wbo never split the kindling, and
the gfhls who always cry
When they're asked to wash the dishesSanta
Claus has got his eye
_)n such boys and girls, and v/atches with
a sad and soiry look
As he writes each name in sorrow on the
pages of his book.
Aad the gtri who never hurries, but lets
mamma do the work.
And the boy who's always scheming all
his little chores to shirk?
They may think no one pays notice when
they dor. t help ma's and pa's
But their names are cn the "Bad Book"
that is kept by Santa Claus.
But old Santa keeps a "Good Book"?it's
the bestest book of all.
Where he writes the names of children )
wuo are prorr.pi at uuiy a ran.
And Hie boys who spill the kiixtilng and
the girls who never shirk
But rise early In the morning and help
mamma with the work;
And the boys who never grumble when
there's work for them to do,
And the girls who help their main.uatill
the housework is all through?
Oh, they needn't ever worry when it's
1 Christmas time, because
All their names are in the "Good Book"
that is kept by Santa Claus.
is your name down in the "Bad Rook?
Well, there Is still a chance for you
And if you will listen to me. 1 will te
you what to do.
Don't act naughty, don't talk rudely, don't
be noisy, be polite;
Get up early in the morning, and into bed
early at night
Cheerfully perform ea<-h duty, do your
work before you play.
Sever put off till tomorrow work thai

If you do these tilings, dear children
It will please your ma's and p.."a.

It Is ,m st'iiM'lcjs practice to out
children's esirs. and arises from a foolish
superstition Aliuly years ago it
was thought that backward children
could he cured by making an incision
in a certain part of their ears. The
belief exists in some parts of the country
today, the operation being performed
usually by a woman at the

it results only jn pain and misery for

Important ehansee la income tax

David H. Blair, are embodied la a
Treasury decision effective December
15, which provides for th# prompt
adjustment of elrflms for refund and

when an over assessment or
j overpayment was disclosed by the au'
Hit of ti income tax return, the tax
I payer wan lavlted te die a claim for
I abatement of the overasseesment or
the refund of the overpayment. When
received the elaim was registered and
filed away until reached in due course
for consideration, i Beeauee fof the
large number of eueh claims fled,
delay in adjustment necessarily resulted.
'
After December IS, the taxpayers
will not be advised of their privilege
of filing a claim for the refund ef
taxes which have been paid in excess
of^amounts legally due, but Instead
will receive a certificate , of overassessment
and a check In correction
of the error, or if an overassessment
is outstanding against the taxpayer
for income or exeeec profts tax, the
overpayment will be applied as a
credit against the assessment, and
the balance iramedSately refunded.
This will he of distinct tnanelal advantage
to both the taxpayer and
