CLAIMANT MUST PAY OWN DOCTOR BILL. Commissioner Finds His Injury Was Not Connected With His Employ- ment. Tn_a finding filed in the superior court office Compensation Commis- sloner J. J. Donohue has_declined to approve the bill of Dr. J. F. Young in the case of Adrian Van Ysseldyk of New London vs. the New England Collapsible Tube eompany of New London.

The commissioner says in his find- ing: It is found tha! the claimant wak suffering from a boil not in any way connected with his employment and that the medical bill is one which the claimant must assume payment rather than his employer. MANY INCOME TAX RETURNS ARE FILED, = el Saturday Was the Largest Day, Says Inspectoy Barnes. The people of Norwich and vicinity seem to realize that the time for filing income tax returns is beginning to draw short. Less than five wepks now remain for those who come within the provisions of the law to come forward end declare their income. Each day during the past week the number of callers at the income tax. office hag in- creased, said Inspector Barnes Mon- day. Saturday was the largest day in number of returns filed to date. Every single person who received an income of $1,000 or more last year must file a return. In the case of a married man if the total of his own income together with that of his wife and minor children amounted to $2,000 or more he comes within the provisions of the law. The man who waits for the income tax man to pull his doorbell is apt to find himself delinquent and subject to heavy penalties, says this official. The income-tax deputies have no time to make. a house to house canvass, but those who come within the scope of the law and fail to file their return before March 1 will find the arm of the government reaching in their' di- rection. . Figure out your income and in case you come within the requirements ap- nly for a form at the local income tax office, which is located in the mayor's office at the city hall, and is open all day and Monday evenings. _ Don't wait until the last of February to do this, as there will be such a rush then that you cannot be as promptly walted on and may have to lose time from your work. If there is any doubt in your case, don't hesitate to call and get advice in the matter, Blank forms- for incomes of $3,000 or less are on hand for distribution andand the inspector expects the blanks for the larger incomes shortly. Thogse who paid an income tax for 1916 will receive their blanks direct from Hartford, as will corporations, &s in previous years. Seventeen Hour Battle With lce.

Williamn and choir of Mt, Calvary Baptist church had charge of the Sunday afternoon eeryice at the Sheltering Arms. The subject of the address was No Shortage in Heaven, the working out of which was adapted to these times and to lead the thought to the city of many mansions which hath no need of the sun to shine. in. it for the glory of God lightens it. There is no snortage of peace, jiy, happi- ress, no clouds, darkness or sorrow in heaven, sald the speaker, Here we feel a shortage in fuel and food, and we shall more and more, unless God puts it into the hearts of men to stop this war. In this world there is no shortage in amusements or in the eo- clal circle.
