BlJHSI]AYS BUTTODAYSLEFT [[ o ek T A0 Jorr i Sttt mmmmimne o e TOPAYINGOME TAX Deputy CollectorYoung Urges All Washingtonians to & File Early. ‘With but eighteen days left iIn Which to file income tax and corpora- tion tax schedules, Deputy Collector James C. Young, acting division chief in charge of the local internal reve- nue office at 1422 Pennsylvania ave- nue, today urged all Washington tax- payers to file returns eariy. The number of taxpayers, notwith- standing the increase in exemption for married men from $2,000 to $2.500, i3 expected to be larger this year than last. This is partially due to the fact that Army, Navy and Marine Corps officers will all be required to file returns. The revenue act of 1921 also states that their incomes are taxable for the entire calendar year 1921, gecording to Mr. Younsg, notwithstanding that the United States was not declared to be at peace until after the beginning of the last calender year. Approximately 33,000 returns were filed at the local office last vear, ex- cluding those sent direct to the col- lector of internal revenue at Balti- more and those sent to collectors in other states by persons in Washing- ton who aim residence in those states. Officials of the local office maintain that early filing of returns will benefit the taxpayer as much as those in charge of the office and will avoid inconvenience to all concerned.

Thnft Week We lately had a week of thrift, to brace our spendthrift souls, and close observers saw us drift to sav- ings banks with rolls. A week of thrift is far too short this lesson to convey: Two pints of nickels make a quart, against a rainy day. I save the dimes for seven days, and find it quite a bore, for I can think of forty Ways to blow them at the store. I drop a kopeck in the jar, and sigh, “It's saved, alas! but it would buy & good cigar composed of herbs and grass.” “A rouble in the jar I drop, and I'm that guch ahead; “but, oh,” I sigh, “the drugstore pop, that's stained a gaudy red!” And when the week of thrift s done, I gladly raid the till, and take therefrom the hoarded mon, and blow it with a will. Butif we had a year of thrift, the lesson we would heed, and from our shoulders we might lift the load that makes them bleed. It is a habit, saving scads, a habit hard to learn, if we train with the giddy lads who think coin's made to burn. But in a year we've learned to count the guilders we have stored; it's £00d to see the package mount, to view the rising hoard. We realize how foolish 'tis, to waste the hard- earned rocks, and to ourselves we say, “Gee whiz, this is the graft that knocks!” And so we save th& marks and francs, the kroners and the bucks, and haul them to the savings banks in lorries and in trucks.
