INCOME TAX RATES HAVE BEEN LOWERED Exemption For Married Persons In- j creased From S2OOO to $2500, , Other Reductions Noted. Your income tax for the year 1924 is less in proportion to your income ‘ than was the tax for 1923. A rate reduction, however, is not the only j benefit afforded by the revenue act of 1924. Increase in the exemption ' for married persons, a 25 per cent ; reduction on "earned income”, and । other changes in revenue legisla-1 tion are of immediate interest to every taxpayer. The revenue act of 1924 requires i that returns be filed by every single 1 person whose net income for 192 4 was SI,OOO or more, or whose gross income was $5,000 or more, and by every married couple whose aggregate net income was $2,500 or more, or whose aggregate gross income was $5,000 or more. Last year returns were required of married couples wJiose aggregate net income was $2,000 or more. Husband and wife, living together, may include the h* come of each in a single joint return, or each may file a separate re* turn showing the income of each. ; Net income is gross income less certain specified reductions for busi- j ness expenses, losses, bad debts, con- ; tributions, etc. The exemptions under the revenue I act of 1924 are SI,OOO for single 1 persons and $2,500 for married per- ’ sins living together, and heads of families. In addition a S4OO credit is allowed for each person dependent upon and receiving his chief support from the taxpayer, if such person is under 18 years of age or incapable of self-support because mentally or physically defective. The normal tax rate under the revenue act of 1924 is 2 per cent on the first $4,000 of net income in excess of the personal exemptions, credit for dependents, etc., 4 per cent on the next $4,000, and 6 per cent en the balance. Under the preceding act the normal tax rate was 4 per cent on the first $4,000 of net income above the exemptions and credits, and 8 •percent on the remaining net income. The period for filing returns is from January 1 to March 15, 1925. 1 The return, accompanied by at least one-fourth of the amount of tax due. must be filed with the ^collector of internal revenue for the district in which the taxpayer has his legal residence or has his principal place of. business Good Program For Dairy Institute I A strong line up of nationally J known authorities on dairy hus- . bandry and disease has been secured for the St. Joseph County : । Dairy Institute January 22nd and 2.3 rd according to announcement by ; county agent E.

Fairchild of Purdue has | been secured to discuss the feed question. i Preserving Trees Large wounds in trees made by the • removal of brandies of considerable > diameter may he protected by painting the cut surface with a heavy coating of white lead. A large number of waxes, paints and washes have been tried, anil the conclusion has been drawn that any substance which is not corrosive or detrimental to growth and which will protect th<* heartwood from the attacks of r<'t spores, wil! prove a satis factory covering for a cut surface. Among such substances may b? na ntioned white lead, yellow ocher, coal • tar ami grafting wax. i Awakens New Hope Some enterprising California citizen discovered that goldfish are much more valuable in a pond of stagnant water than in a glass bowl. It is said that a few goldfish placed in sluggish water where mosquitoes breed wil] in one season eat every vestige of mosquito • larvae, freeing file neighborhood of I this pest. Just about the time we had |, given up all hope that this metallic | colored fish had any value other than ' as a parlor ; et. along comes this news | dispatch. There is hope for the gar I pike yet.—Detroit News. Oriental Rug Designs Authorities on oriental rugs say ;, that the rug itself typifies the universe and the various designs the ever-changing course of life. The principal color, if rod, typifies life of victory; if blue, royalty; if white, purity; if green, devotion, and if 1 tack. evil.

STATE SCHOOLS ASK FOR LARGER APPROPRIATIONS ! Claims Hoosier State Stands At Bottom Os List In This SectioQ. I “Indiana stands at the bottom of , the great northwestern states— Michigan. lowa, Minnesota. Illinois, • Ohio, Wisconsin, Indiana —in the provision made for its universities says President Wm. L. Bryan, ul Indiana university, in a statement on the program of Purdue and Indiana universities calling for an increase in state appropriation to eight cents to provide for the increas- 1 ing enrollment and broadening ser--' vices of the two institutions. Referring to the report of the 1 Education Survey Commission to ■ the 1923 legislature and to the recent statistics compiled by the State Legislative Reference Bureau. President Bryan pointed qut that •'lndi- ' ana stands at the bottom of the 1 north central states in the total 1 amount spent for its universities; in the amount spent for its universities in proportion to the appraised valuation of the state; in the provision for buildings, equipment and library in the average cost per student, in the axerage salaries paid professors, and in the proportion of total taxes paid to the amount spent for higher education.” Indiana's present five-cent tax for higher educational institutions took 'effect in 1922 but the income is now less than it was in that year on account of depreciation in tax values. The combined enrollment at Indiana and Purdue of more than 75,000 compares favorably with the average enrollment of state universities in the north central group. | ' Radio Fans Must Change Their Logs — Due to an order of E.

EVANGELISTIC MEETINGS CLOSE AT CHURCH OF CHRIST Rev, (Jeorge Titus. Evangelist. Forced to Give Up Work On Account of Accident. Kev. George Titus, former pastor of the Church of Christ at Misha-1 waka, who for the past few days ! Uas been conducting a series or ; evangelistic meetings in North Lib- I erty has been forced to abandon his ' meeting on account of a serious accident which happened a few ■ weeks ago, the shock of which has left him in a serious mental condition. According to newspaper reports, I Rev. Titus, his wife and two child- i ren were driving in their machine, starting for South Bend, when the car skidded, hitting W. H. Donovan, Maple Grove Center, Mich., who stepped directly in front of the minister’s car. Titus applied his brakes and the car skidded on the icy street and crashed in the lamp standard.

Mason, i^istor of the North Liberty church r^ued the following statement: "With reluctance we must- bow to ♦be inevitable. and temporarily close our e'nn elistic effort here, owing to the catastrophe in which Bro. Titus became seritmsly implicated. We hoped, that he would have sufficiently recuperated from the shock received to have resumed his work here at an early date, but his condition is still serious. We are glad to report that he has been ex- I honorated from all blame, it being decided by the authorities that the fatality was purely accidental. “In the short effort eleven were added to the church, for which we thank God. May God bless all who cooperated to make the meeting a success. We feel loath to part with Bro. Lester Ketchum, after doin^ such splendid work as chorister, and winnig his way into our hearts.

HIST BASKET BAU GAME fRIOAV NIGHT New Gymnasium Will Be Opened For Athletic I*ur)M»ses As I,ocal Boys Meet Union Center High. _ An event of more than usual interest and importance, because of what it will mean in the future, will take place Friday evening when the local high school basketball team plays its first interscholastic contest in the new gymnasium. A dream I that has been harbored in the mind of many a student and patron of the । local school for the past dozen years, will be fully realized tomorrow night when the school plays its first contest in the new gymnasium. For years the need for a suitable gym has been felt and now that need has been supplied. Not only does it mean interschola-ti. games with ail their interest and u anifestatien of school spirit, but it gives ample opportunity for including in the regular course of study a pro- ram o ph sical education. In order that the occasion may be duly emphasized and the importance of it appropriately marked, the INDEPENDENT urges that every boy and girl in school, every citizen of Walkerton and every patron of the school as lai as possible, attend this first game. Your interest, your spirit, your enthusiasm will all add to the successful opening of the local basket ball seasun and of the new gym- : nasium. The opponents for this first game will be the crack team from Unio*. Center, a LaPorte County consoli--dated school, 12 miles west of here. This school opened its fine new gymnasium a few months ago. The visitors will therefore have the advantage of more training and more experience than the local lads, but • H. S. can be counted upon toput up a good fight. Coach Little has been working his lads hard every I day for the past three weeks, point- . ing them toward this opening game. ■ Tags, bearing the wording, “I ano ; going Jan. 16,” are being sold as ■ admission tickets and worn by the purchasers, as an indication of their interest in the opening contest. ' Principal Matson says they can take ' care of 400 people. The probaMe line up of the W. H. S. team will be: David Lawrence ;and Russell Cripe, forwards; Earl Watkins, center; George Mechling I and Lester Bierley, guards; with the following in reserve, Ray Nusbaum, Raymond Hornung and Floyd Brown, forwards; and Nathan Marsh 1 guard.
