MX EVENING REPUBLICAN, RENSSELAER, IND.
RED LETTER DAY IN ODD FELLOWS LODGE
Gahering Here Surpassed the Expectations and Proved a Pleasant Social Event.
The joint meeting of Odd Fellows and Rebekahs of iDstrict No. 37, composed of Jasper county, was held in Rensselaer Friday afternoon and evening and proved a social event of unusual interest to the large assemblage and also an inspiration to the orders of Rensselaer, Remington, Pjarr, Wheafcfield and Gifford. Before the supper hour 335 names were registered and these were all fed at the Methodist and Christian churches, where creamed chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy, slaw, hot rolls, noodles, pickles, coffee and pie were served. The afternoon session of the two orders Were held separately, the Odd Fellows holding their session at 1 o’clock. The initiatory degree work was exemplified by Schuylet Lodge, of Remington, the candidate being Luther Hickman. At 2:30 the Rebekah degree was confected by the Remington lodge on Miss Emily Bull and Mrs. Samuel H. Holmes. Then Mr. and Mrs. Bela F. Roberts were given the same work by the Rensselaer lodge. The hour for permanent organization of the district was set for 5 o’clock blit it was impossible to get all together at that time and instead of consummating the permanent organization a committee of two from each of the Odd Fellow lodges of the county were appointed, viz. L. L. McCurtain and Charles Rowen, of Parr; James Britt and Tom Parker, of Gifford; Charles aHrner and William Broadie, of Remington; John T. Biggs and James C. McColly, of Wheatfield; and Fred Tyler and Chas. E. Sampson, of Rensselaer. The chairman of the committee of ten, L. L. McOurtin, will make a call for the committee to meet and will form the permanent organization and probably set a time and place for holding the next joint convention. The Odd Fellows reconvened at 7 o’clock and Iroquois Lodge, of Rensselaer, conferred the first degree on Will Postill. The joint meeting took place at 8 o’clock and following the singing of the opening ode and prayer by the chaplain, L. H. Hamilton delivered an address of welcome and it gave hearty and eloquent expression to the feeling of the local Odd -Bellows and Rebekahs in having so many of their brethren and sisters as their guests. Mr. Hamilton is an Odd Fellow of many years and his address proved very pleasing to the large assemblage. Response was made by Rev. Gibson Wilson, of the Oxford Presbyterian church, and formerly a resident of Remington. He is quite an eloquent speaker and his address was also very much enjoyed. The comedy of the evening was a “mock degree” conferred by the Odd Fellows lodge of Parr. L. L. McCurtain was the candidate, and he ploved a real “village cut-up” and kept the large audience, ‘estimated at 500, convulsed with laughter. The program as printed was carried out. The orchestra played an imimrtant part-fat entertaining the assemblage and a song by Miss Claire Broadie, of Remington, and another by Mrs. Alice Shedd Randle, of Renssealer, and readings by Miss Bell Southard, of Remington, and Miss Grace Priee, of Parr, proved factors in the evening’s enjoyment. The closing address was by Rev. W. G. Winn, pastor of the Christian church of this city, and was a strong argument in favor of Odd Fellowship, and a review of the organization. His eloquent tribute to some of the great exponents of the order provoked much applause and notwithstanding the / late hour, it being almost half after 11 o’clock, he was given the closest attention. A lunch of doughnuts and coffee concluded the meeting and many Odd Fellows and Rebekahs left to drive to their homes through the stormy night, all acknowledging that it had been one of the most pleasant occasions of their lodge experience. C. E. Tyner, of Monon, spent the day with his Odd Fellow friends in Rensselaer and a number more Odd Fellows came over on the evening train from that town, to enjoy the evening meeting.

IS STILL TEACHING THO’ OUT OF SCHOOL
Grown-Ups Impressed With Margaret Hill McCarter’s Appeal for the Little Ones.
Few more delightful occasions, have been held in Rensselaer than the one of Friday evening at the home of Mrs. Mary E. Thompson and Mrs. Ora T, Ross, when Mrs. Margaret Hill McCarter spoke to an assemblage of about one hundred and fifty, her subject being “The Heart of a Child.” The Ladies' Literary Society, through Mrs. George E. Murray, who was a contemporaneous teacher with Mrs. McCarter, then Miss Margaret Hill, had asked her to come here and address them. She expected to have “Abraham Lincoln” as her subject, but after arriving here and learning that the me*i as well as the women, and the school teachers and a few jOthers were to- be .her auditors, she changed her subject, as she said, because the men could not have understood her Lincoln speech. For fifteen years a school teacher and for almost twenty-one years a mother, and all the time a student of the needs of the child, her lecture, for that is what it must be called in spite of her disclaimer that it was such, contained so many splendid practical suggestions that no one who listened to it intently could fail of much personal benefit. She held that the child is influenced to dishonesty and untruthfulness by those with whom it comes into contact, often the parents and the teachers, because of thoughtlessness and indifference on the part of those who should exercise every ,care to guide them aright. She painted the child possessed of every virtue and held this to be an age when the child iwas..to be studiec and given a square deal. Mrs. McCarter related several childhood stories that brought ripples of the happiest laughter and also spoke of instances of childish neglect or discrimination that brought tears to many eyes. Greater kindliness toward the little ones, whether your own or not, and more thoughtful consideration of them in relation to their future lives is a lesson which the speaker impressed upon all who heard her. The gathering had somewhat the appearance of a reunion, as there were among those present a number of Mrs. McCarter’s former pupils and many of her close friends during the years she taught school here, from the fall of JBB4 to midyear of the tern* of 1887,88. Miss Mary Washburn, of Washington, D. C„ and Mrs. Frank B. Lyon, of Delphi, were two of tlie outside guests. Miss Washburn was never a pupil of Mrs. McCarter, but Mrs. Lyon, then Dora Healey, spent two years in the high school during the years she was here. Mrs. J. H| Chapman, a former pupil, introduced Mrs. McCarter, following a very delightful musical program consisting of piano solos by Mrs. M. D. Gtwin and a group of songs by Mrs. Virinda Rainier Barnes, which were so much appreciated that she responded to the applause. Mrs. McCarter will remain here until Wednesday, being Mrs. George E. Murray’s guest and a luncheon in her honor, was given by Mrs. Murray at 1 o’clock today, about sixteen ladies being guests.

MORE ABOUT THE INCOME TAX LAW.
Tax for Last Year Based Upon Fraction of Year From March Ist to December 31st. *
The local United States revenue office reports that ft Is receiving many inquiries concerning the income tax law and that some taxpayers are becoming unnecessarily panicky over Its provisions. One of the most frequent questions asked Is: “Who has to make returns under the income law?" Every person who had a net in-, come of $2,500 or more from March 1,1913, to December 31, 1913, is required to make a return, and every person that did not have such an income need make no report. It should be remembered that the first reports relate to a fraction of a year—ten months. Hereafter, that if for the calendar year, 1914, and for each subsequent .year, the basis of exemption will be $3,000 for an unmarried man and $4,000 for a married man. Other questions that are frequently asked qf the department include this one: “What documents must be filed thirty days before March 1?” The law contemplates that employes entitled to an exemption should gle a certificate : “at the source,” that Is, with his -employer, or thirty days prior to March 1. Exemptions are provided for in what are known as government blanks 1007 and 1008 (supplied by the revenue office). The first, 1007,. is a statement by the employe as to whether he is married, in,' which case he is entitled to an exemption of $4,000 for a full year, that is $3,333 for the fractional year 1913, or if unmarried is entitled to an exemption of $3,000, that is, $2,500 for the fraction of 1913 to which the law applies. Blank 1008 provides for listing exemptions other than »s provided for in 1007. Where, a person seeks exemptions (more, than the $3,333 or $2,500 as above) he. should file a schedule of them In Blank 1008. This provides for such'exemptions as taxes, pn loans, losses in business, etc. Blank 1007 1 to be filed with the employer or “at the source.” No. 1008 may be filed either with the employer or with the revenue collector. The filing of Blanks 1007 and 1008 in nowise affects the time when the individual’s report provided for in Blank 1040 is to be filed. This blank is to be filed with the revenue collector on or before March 1. ,- r , ,
