LIKE BACON YOU know how cooking brings out all the rich pungent flavor of bacon — there’s nothing that tastes better. But you wouldn’t like it raw. IT’S TOASTED So we toast the Burley tobacco used in LUCKY STRIKE Cigarettes for exactly the same reason —to bring out the rich, solid flavor. <*S .... I IMF n Guaranteed by I M a OW»»©«AT«C» 11 W. J.

PUBLIC HELP IS ASKED. Against Tax Evaders—Chance for Re-> turns Yet, Says Collector Kruyer. | We have been requested by a representative of the government to publish the following: Washington. I). April 13—Mil-, lions of dollars, "it is estimated by revenue officials, will be added to the I government revenue in penalties as a result of tlie roundup of income tax l delinquents about to me started by I the department of internal revenue Tlie aid of every loyal citizen is invoked by Commissioner Roper. “The most important tiling in tax-1 ation is equity in distributing the tax burden," said Commissioner Roper to j day. "it is difficult to conceive that any one should endeavor to escape his share of tile levy made for the prosecution of war in defense of Christian civilization, it is the duty of every man who lias paid his tax to cooperate with us in locating the tax slacker. We shall meet taxpayers , o-opcratively by doing as much to s"e that they are not overtaxed as to see that tlie full taxes are colli ted. in the interest of honest taxpayers we demand every dollar that is due tlie government and promise to refund every dollar of overpayment. Should Report Names. "if a taxpayer lias reason to believe that any person known to him; i a tax slacker he should report his j name to the collector of his district or to the commissioner of internal < revenue. This kind of co-operation constitutes real war service. It will, t. ake the equalization of the tax bur-’ d >ll. "This is a c hallenge of loyal c-iti-1 zens to do war work. Let every de-1 liiiqir nt taxpayer keep in mind that it is possible to avoid penalties and prosecutions by filing his return before 1 lie receives notice from the collector of internal revenue of his delinquency. If he waits until after official notic e is rec eived it* will be too late. A word to the wise should be sufficient.” A NEW GERMAN LIE. A new type of German lie is going the rounds It runs about like this: "A friend of mine employs a German girl, whose brother was forc ed into the German army. Recently she received a letter from him. saying that he saw the kaiser every day. She I wrote back asking him how it was. if ’ lie saw the kaiser every day, he did not do anything. Later. by mail, alter failuie to hear from him she received a box which contained his eyes, indicating his horrible punishment” The purpose of the lie may have been to discourage any attempts Ml the part of citizens in this country to corre.jeond in any way with Germans, a wholly unnecessary action, under the circumstances. It may have had some other purpose judging from the typically German .atrociousness of the allegations. It is, of course, false and a fabrication entirely without semblance of truth In the first place no mail is lieing carried from America to Germany, either directly or indirectly. No messages. even in cipher are permitted to go to any German address. On the other hand Germany is not i»ermitting any correspondence with the citizens of this country, in any manner, directly or Indirectly. Certainly no one close enough to the kaiser to come in daily contact with him could have relatives in United States. The mere fact of his having relatives in this country would disqualify him for any service that might take him near enough to see the Hun every day. Like other lies, the intent of this, perhaps is to .break down the morale of the people, upon which so much depends. The only safe and patriot!'policy to pursue In reference to all such false and misleading gossip is to kill it by refusing to listen where possible so to do. and always to refuse to repeat it. WHEN TO KEEP OFF THE LINE. Not long ago there was a tire in the business section of an eastern town.l

.. ... ■ ii aa iM i - -•—- ■ ' '"*■ . ----- I When the fire chief arrived he siw: • that a second alarm must lie turned in.| iThe city tire alarm system was then, found to l>e out of order. He sent ■ a fireman to telephono for more an- ' paratus. The town, not a big one. his |a fire whistle, which was blowing. | When people heard the whistle they all turned to the telephone asking | central about the lire. The switchI board was a blaze of signal lights and the swamped operators were working Ito answer the curiosity calls, one by one. with half an hour's accumulation I ahead of them Somewhere among those hundreds of tiny electric lamp.-. Hit by curiosity, was the one with a ] waiting fireman at the other end and 'serious business —perhaps the safety of property, life, the community How were the operators to know that his call was different? There was no way. Only by chance did one of them plug j in aug get the real emergency mes i sage. But for luck, he might haw waited fifteen minutes. So just bear this in mind: When you really need central, call I her. But when somebody else needs her. and your call is backed by nothing more than curiosity—keep off the line! THINK IT OVER! If .here existed in any town in this ;country such a thing as a woman 'clasping a half starved < hild in hr 'arms while she gazed at tlie body o’ , her husband, who had been torn from their home and shot, merely to carry out the doctrine of terribleness, there i would not be a single person in that | town who could sleep or eat until he I or sh ' had done something actual and defini eto help We have that condition right wit!’ us not only in Belgium but also in the allied countries. Our part is to give these people the food they must have Things have reach'd a point where we are either definitely for or against If we are for these peoi le who are giving all they have in tlie world to keep the Teuton spirit from having its way in the world, th n we will remember them at every meal as definitely as if we had the privilege of sharing with them at our own tables. ' o„ ...... . , ■ REGISTERING STARTS APRIL 19 Ind anapolis April 1? Members of chambers of commerce in Indiana have been asked by Miss Julia I-and-ms. < hairman of the committee on regie'ration for woman’s service -if the State Council of Defense, to coop. -rate in tlie task of registering wt men, which iiegins April 19. The organizations are asked to impress upon the women of their communities the importance of the registration as a patriotic duty and to assist in other ways to make the enterprise a success. Miss Mabel Many, state chairman of the committee on women in indutry has issued a bulletin asking the members of the county committees to impress upon the working wom°n of their communities the necessity of registering. She also asks that members of the committees visit factories in their communities where women are employed and ascertain whether, or not proper working conditions are mi intained. o— — Decatur Lady’s Operation Not Successful.
