Walsh issued a statement announc- ing that the extension of time to July 15 granted by the treasury depart- ment for filing returns, applies to partnerships and personal service corporations, having fiscal years end- ing January 31, Feb. 28, March 31 o April 30, 1919. The same extension applies to all other corporations having the same fiscal years, which on or before June 15 shall have filed tentative returns on Form 1031-T and paid one-fourth of the estimated tax. In the case of such corporations filing Form 1031-T _the filing date for completé returns is au- tomatically- extended to July: 15 ‘but not beyond due date of second instali- ment tax which is five and one-half months after close of corporations fis- cal year ending in 1919. The facts are emphasized that this ruling does not extend due date of any installment of tax after first basis must. file their returns by June 15. CIVIL SERVICE JOBS FOR DISCHARGED, YANKS Although' there is a desire on the part of congress, the- heads of execu- tive departments, and the civil service commission to recognize in all proper ways the claims of returning soldiers, sailors, and marines to employment in the classified civil service, the..civil service commission feels that in order to avoid misapprehension certain facts should be brought to the attention -of the men. The law provides for certain prefer- ences in appnointinent in favor of dis- charged soldiers, sailors and marines. It should be understood, however, that preference claimants musf ity in open competitive exami unless they left the classified civil service to enter the miilit: or naval service. These examinations are. announced from time to time to meet the needs of the service. They must be adver- tised for a sufficient time to give them due publicity; then the papers must be rated, registers established, and claims of preference passed upon. An act of congress of February 25, 1919, makes mandatory’ the reinstate- ment to their former positions of all former government employes who were drafted or who' enlisted in the military service of the United States in the war with Germany upon their application and if they have received an honorable discharge and are quali- fied for the wor NAMES PUBLICITY COMMITTEE ON JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL In accordance with a vote passed at a recent meeting, President Frank J.

It is the belief of the Catholic church because founded on the words of Christ Himself, “Go, therefore, teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the, Holy Ghost.” ‘Whoever would doubt the doctrine of the Trinity would deny the divinity of Christ: and if this be not an absolute fact, then it is time, as Saint Paul says, in our religion we would be the most foolish of men, It is their firm faith in the Trinity which explains the attraction of the church for all Catholics, who, while believing of course, that God is every- where, believe that He is particularly in the church, because they believe His own words in the Holy Bible, in the institution o fthe Blessed Euchar- ist"at the last supper, when Christ said, “This is My body; this is My blood.
