Free Advice In Doubtful Cases. 8evere Penalties in Law. Nobody Is exempt from Income Tax. In obligation Is laid directly on the shoulders of each citizen and resident :o consider his own case and to get his eturn in on time if one is due. With each return showing a tax due i payment must accompany the return n the full amount of the tax or at east oue-quurter of the tax. All returns for 1919 must be flled on >r before March 15. Must Show True Figures. In figuring up his earnings for Injomo tnx purposes a person must take nto consideration all Items of taxable ncome, and each Item Itself must ho iccurate in amount. Guesses and es- , Imates must be avoided, for the re:urn is made under oath. Everybody who bad an Income durng 1919 must now determine whether lis or her net Income was sufficient in 1 imount to require an Income Tax re:urn. The best way to find out Is to jet a Form 1010A and follow the Instructions printed on It. That form will serve as a reminder of every Item if Income; and If a return Is due, It :ells how to prepare and tile It. One of the important points to keep n mind is that a person's net Income s found by a computation prescribed n the Inw, and that each Item of Income from every source must he considered. unless specifically exempted. Another thing to remember is that hi personal exemption allowed taxpayers by law lias no relation whatever ;o the requirement to tile return. Tills exemption Is not to be considered until i person has figured out his net Ineomo and determined whether it was judieient to require him to file a return. Then, if a return must be tiled, tie should read carefully the instructions for claiming exemption, and complete his return. If In doubt on nny point as to lncomo ir deductions, a person may secure rrce advice and aid from the nearest Internal Revenue oillce. Many banks ind trust companies are also furnishing similar service during banking Itours. Heavy Penalties In Law. For failing to make a return on time he penalty is a tine of not more than P 1,000 and an addition of 25 per cent to the tax. If any. For making a false >r fraudulent return the penalty Is a Que of not more tlinn $10,000 or Imprisonment not exceeding one year, or lioth; and, In addition, 50 per cent of the tax. There are other penalties for falling to pay tax when duo and for understatement of the tax through negligence. Many Sources of Income. Aside from what one may earn by til8 services, there uro many other sources of Income. If he sold nny property during 1019 he must figure out the gain realized. If he rented buildings, land, apartments or rooms such rents must be considered tnxnable, and he may claim deductions for accessary expenses Incidental to rents. Rank Interest Is a common source of Income and Is taxable whether withdrawn or not. Any amount of interest credited to a depositor Is income to the depositor. Interest on mortgages and notes Is taxable; also bond interest received from corporations. A taxpayer who cashed his Insurance during 1019 must report as income any excess received over the total of premiums paid. Members of partnerships or personal service igorporations or beneficiaries of an estate or trust must report tliefr shares of income distributable to them whether or not actually withdrawn. Dividends of domestic corporations must be reported. Many other forms of Income are taxable, unless specifically exempted.

' " 'It's my idea,' lie said, 'to live I with your old man the first couple of = years.' " 'But George?' " 'That's my idea/ he interrupted. 'Think of the money we can save. No rent, no light, no grub, no coal,' " 'But?' " 'I insist on this thing,' George ' interrupted again. 4I tell you, I?' Then the door opened and the girl's father entered the room.
