Dilatory Income Tax Pavers
Income tax payers who failed to consult with
the federal officer until the last day for the pay
ment of their taxes can only blame their own sloth for the inconvenience to which they were
put.
f Months ago the government urged persons
amenable to the income tax law to consult offi
cials at once in order that the last minute rush
might be obviated. Too many ignored both the request of the government and the hundreds pf newspaper articles proclaiming the necessity of payment before March 15 and explaining some of the intricacies of the law. The officer who was assigned to Richmond literally was almost worked to death. He was compelled to work long- hours, real overtime work that went far into the night, mainly because hundreds of our citizens failed to consult him weeks ago. .. Better service could have been given if the tax payers had co-operated with the officer, and they would have been spared long hours of weary waiting in his office if they had felt the inclination to make their reports early in the season.
A little co-operation the next time will obviate
much of the delay experienced in this quarter and
will make the work easier, for. the government's representative. , ,
An Example in Investment The Dayton Journal comments as follows on the method France has employed to curb extravagant spending: ' , ' "A useful hint to Americans is contained in a dispatch to the New. York Evening Post concerning the inflation of French currency. It points to the increase in circulation of French
bank notes during the war from four to nearly
thir.v-four billion francs, a erreat amount of
which was stored by the peasantry, owing to
doubt as to the result of the war. Since confid
ence has been restored, these people have brought out their hoards and have been buying freely.
This action makes inflation actual rather than
potential, as it put the hoards in circulation. It
increases the demand for goods, sends prices up
and in other ways serves to dislocate -exchange In order to retire this surplus, the French gov
ernment and corporations are issuing bonds that
will convert it from 'sending money' into fixed
capital saved from income. The French people
are buying the bonds as investments.
"By spending surplus money on luxuries and by relaxing the economy formerly practiced, the
prseent level of high prices is not only sustained
but encouraged. Instead of doing this the plan is to have the people invest in securities which
have .a good prospect of being redeemed at ma turity in dollars worth 100 cent3.
"It will be of interest to observe how the French plan to combat high prices and extravagance and to encourage economy will work out."

Dinner Stories
Today's Talk By Georgs Matthew Adams
LIGHTS. As I write, tho greatest physical light in the world is fading. Little by little the shadows lengthen. Soon there will be darkness comparative, tho billions of lights will star the blue fky. Willi what inspiration Is each sort of light touched! I. have been thinking of this idea of lights for a long time. It struck me nearest when on an evening, before retiring, I sat. upon, a great porch opposite a large apartment building. There was one lovely light burning in front. Every few minutes someone would pass under it and into their home for the night. Presently the big, beautiful light 'went out! Soon the lighted house, light by light, became dark. And then I got to thinking of all the lights that made up lif and the world. "What would we be, where would we go. without them? I thought of the old oil lamps and the candle lights, and pictured the scores of wonderful lights of every rnapmificent design that electricity has made possible. I thought of the great lighthouses with their moving head towers, telling ships to bear their precious cargo well. I thought of the millions of lights lifting the "darkness from the streets of the great cities, and how they were worth more than double their number in policemen. I thought of the miles and miles of roads being driven over by automobiles sniided by their lights. And of the millions of people who were comfortable and safe and happy and
assured because they were helped to be so, by lights. But marvelously wonderful as are all the lights of the world, there are those things which hide in the human heart that outshine them all beautiful thoughts, kind and generous impulses and love which always lingers long. For "The light of the whole world dies when love Is done!"
SOVIET REPUBLIC CLAIMED (By Associated Press) AMSTERDAM, March 17 A dispatch to the Handelsblad from Berlin Tuesday says a soviet republic has been prTrclamied at Hof, Bavaria. Hof is in northeastern Bavaria, and has a population of about 33,000.
POLISH RESERVISTS
ARRIVE IN UNITED STAT ESl signal
(By Associated tress) NEW YORK, March 17. A group of 140 Polish reservists who fought against the Central powers and later against the Bolsheviki, were waiting at Ellis Island Tuesday for the Polish consul or a representative to furnish
them with funds to enable them to re
turn to their homes in different parts of the United States. The -nen, who
arrived on the French steamer Ro-
chambeau. were discharged in France
but were informed that they would be paid off upon their arrival here so
that they would not spend all of their
money in Paris before boarding the
ship.
"Here you!" cried the fur-coated
gentleman to the porter at the su
burban station. "Don't you think that
truck is rather dangerous in that po
sition?"
"Eh?" said the newly promoted
porter. "Thing it rather dangerous
do you? Very good of you to pay at
tention to such things. I suppose you are going to tell me where to put
it? well just cast your eye around
What about the ticket office. Wouldn't
that look better on the line? And the
box? Shall we shift it in to
the main street? And how about the station-master's house shall we move It on to the up platform? Any opinion you'd like to express shall receive
attention."
The fur-coated gentleman turned
away and left the station.
"Aha!" said the promoted porter to
the ticket clerk. "Did you see how
I tied that interfering old josser up Good, wasn't it?"
"Well, I dunno about that," said the
clerk. "That happens to be our traf
fic superintendent."

GRANT GO, MAN GAME 25 MILES FOR MORE DRECO
Made Special Trip to Muncie to Tell About What the Great Medicine Did for Himi . mm r
sell and ust more tor a Neighbor.
Could Not Sleep for That Itching, Terrifying Eczema; Two Bottles of Dreco Removed Every Trace of it. Mr. James Ratcliff. a prosperous farmer living near Radloy, Grant Co., Indiana, twenty-five miles from Muatie, gives the following signed statement for the benefit of the public: "I made a special trip to Muncie today to tell about what this new medicine, Dreco, did for me. and to get some for a neighbor of mine. This Drero has almost saved my life. For years I've suffered from eczema. I'd itch and scratch alt night Ions: sometimes I'd set clean out of my bed and Bit in a chair for there was no rest for me. "My stomach was also out of order and my food did me no good, but bloated me up with sour p;as. I was very bilious and ' my entire system seemed rundown. "I've taken two bottles of Dreco, and I want to say that even tho red spots on my body where the eczema used to be are gone. I sleep all night long in peace; no more itching, scratching; no sitting up in chairs, as before. My stomach digests food without causing gas to form; my liver has been cleaned off; in fact, I'm in fine shape again and I give all credit to Dreco, the great root and herb remedy." - The blood has to be cleared of poisons to get rid of eczema. 'No better medicine for this can be obtained than Dreco, which is made of the juices of roots, herbs, - barks and leaves, which act on the vital organs and tone them. up. All good druggists now sell Dreco, and it is highly recommended in Richmond by Thistlethwaite's drug stores. Advertisement.

Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton
PAGING MR. IBANEZ. A call for Mr. Ibanez Mr. Vicente Blasco Ibanez. author of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse," who has recently said that American husbands are afraid of their wives and are slaves to them, and that they should use the old cave-man methods, the same as are used in Europe. We want to take Mr. Ibanez out to a certains modest bungalow and introduce him to a certain modest lady, in. we assure him, the most modest manner. Personally, we believe Mr. Ibanez is more than half right, theoretically speaking, but we are anxious to see just what will happen when he repeats his ideas to the lady aforementioned. Just among ourselves, and not to be repeated outside, we believo
