Artistic Embracers “Hak” is informing Bemidji people that woman’s attractions are so many that it takes an artist to embrace them all in a photograph. He also says that he has always been very successful in catching his subjects in a delightful pose emphasizing their individual charms. But he doesn’t really say that he is an artist, at that. Some women’s attraction are so many that it would take an artist to em- brace them all, leaving the photograph part out of, it. And then there are those whom only an artist could or would embmce‘. i Lofty Background A prospective Boy Scout, in exj, " plaining the organization to his moth- <er, told her that Superintendent Bag- by was “back of it”. “Yes, and Pres- ident Wilson is back of it, too,” added |{& the youth.

BIG FIGHT TO CONTROL RICH SILESIAN MINES| Bitter Feeling Between Poles| and Germans Stirred Through Contest Control of onc of the richest coal mine regions of Europe will be de-| termined. in a plebiscite to be held in | Upper Silesia probably around March | 15. Poles and Germans are equally | anxious that they shall “carry” the | plebiscite and much feeling has.aris- en. The United Press sent Carl D. Groat from Berlin to report the act- ual conditions. [Following is his first dispatch. y By Carl D. Groat (United Press Correspondent.) ‘Beuthen, Upper Silesia, (by mail). | —*“Upper Silesia is so surely going| Polish that Poles already have organ- ized a government for it."” ‘That statement was made to me to- day by Herr Korfanty, born a Germ- an, once a member.of the Reichstag and now a Polish leader. b m willing to bet my head the ite will give Poland this rich ," he declared wifh a wide of his arm to indicate the| ad of Upper Silesia. { Korfanty declared plans had been| made even down to the laying of| railroad lines into isolated sections. Germans residing in these coal| regions have claimed that the Poles are coming across the border murder- ing and plundering, holding men and women up in the streets, literally sending them to their homes without] a stitch. To these rumors Korfanty replied: “True! There are disturbing ele- ments here and people have blood in their eyes. But T do claim that Ger-| many is wrong in blaming us entirely for disturbances. Germany is using systematic force against us. It is true that many of our people are armed. That js no secret. But ‘while it is not easy to obtain weapons from Poland where there are no fac- tories to produce them. Now, the Germans are smuggling all sorts of weapons into the district, week by week. “Unsettled conditions have resgult- ed as in Berlin and else where from the war.

J. Desmond deputy state auditor, said. Study of the income tax law and regulations reveals interesting phases with regard to allowances for deduc- tions. . For example, a woman who has won a breach of promise suit, or has ac- cepted out of court a settlement as heart’ balm, must ind“dti,e amount received in her income return for the year 1920. The bureau of in- ternal revenue has decided that such payments are within the law’s defini- tion’of ‘income ang are taxable to the recipient for the year in which re- ceived. Payments_of alimony, however, is not taxable income; neither may it be deducted ;in‘the return of the person paying. it. i " The bureau’s official rulingelating to breach of promise suits and settle- ments out of court is as follows: “Damages in the form of yearly payments throughout the life of the injured party, recovered through the compromise of a threatened suit for breach of promise or marriage, are not regarded as a return of capital since the benefits of which the injured par- * |ty was deprived were merely anticipa- tory.” = M‘embors‘ of a labor union may de- ‘| duct as a business expense dues paid to such organizations during the year 1920. "l&e bureau of internal revenue has ruled that such.dues are necessary expenses ‘incident to the earning of their wages. % A On thei other hand, a member of a labor uriion: who, Wwhile on’ strike, re- ceived payments from the organiza- tion must jnclude in his income for the year such items. i Payments for oVertime, at-the ac- tual rate received, must be-included in-computing gross income.

A married man must include the income of his wife—un- less she makes a separate return— and that of dependent minor children. While amounts received as com- pensation for personal injuries or ill- ness are not taxable, the man who, during the year 1920, recovered dam- ages in a libel suit must include in his return such amount, which is held to be taxable income. The. revenue act| specifically exempts amounts received through accident or health insurance, or under workmen’s compensation acts for personal injuries orillness, plus any additional amount received by 'suit or agreement in such cases. No proyision is made, however for the exemption of payments as balm for wounded feelings. . Poor.

New York, Feb. 11.—Seventy thou- sand babies in this country and 5,000 in New York City died needlessly in 1920 before the expiration of the first month of their lives, said Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt, a member of the ad- visory bpard of the National prgan- jzation for Public Health Nursing, to- day. - She continued: “Public health nursing in 1919 1920 lowered the death rate of moth= ers at childbirth to 1.3 per thousand as against a general-rate of 5.1 an- 'nounced by 'the health department. 'For 4,496 infants under one mpr_)'.h receiving care under the supervision of the Maternity Center association, the death rate was lowered to 19 per thousand as contrasted with a prevail- ing rate of 35 per thousand among those who -had had prenatal care, while the rate in the city in general was 45. “ “In both classes the caring, due to prenatal and postnatal care, was 37 babies out of every thousand. With that same care in the country's 2,000,- 000 annual confinement cases, the infant saving would have been 70,000 for the United States and 5,000 for New York City. “Experience in both Boston and * New York indicates that nursing serv-. jce would save annually nearly 10,000 mothers, who die in this country at childhirth, a_cause 'of death among women second only to tuberculosis.” | ATIENTION 10 THE PUBLI " BY ABE GROSSMAN = . Proprietor of the Hub. Clothing Store There is a general announcement from all reliable manufac- turers that merchandise is at rock bottom prices. If the public would start to buy their needs, th.en the manufac- turer'would be able to buy your product of raw material.’ ‘ Reliable merchandise is the only merchandise that pays to .buy. Don’t buy cheap goods, like seconds and thirds, from con-. cerns that make a lot of mis-statements. ‘The fact is that reliable manufacturers would not sell his produets to any one who sells cheap merchandise and makes such mis-leading statements. TOPROVE THE FACT : For instance: if you were a manufacturer for a reliable -cloth- ing concern, and well known for years, wouldn’t you rather have a thousand merchant customers'for a million dollar business per year, than have one for one-third that amount? I believe you woulq, because if you have a thousand custom- ers, you have an everlasting business, but should you have only one and he should quit you, you are down and out and no one knows you. I think that’s plain enough. Furthermore, that you are paying 98 cents for cheap merchandise instead of a dollar for the same item in good quality. . ] The 98 cent price is for the purpose of making you believe that it’s a long way from a dollar. : I personally have three stores of my own, reason why I can under-sell my competitors. selling reliable merchandise and doing a large business under a very small expense. but that isn’t the It is because I am i The only competitoi‘ for whom I have any fear is the one whd is broke, down and out, and, thank heaven, we have none such in can’t exist. 218 Minnesota Avenue ABE GROSSMAN, i’rop.
