Tune 15 is still the last day set by the) Government for the payment of in-| come taxes, This explains Collector Béwards's announcement that no ex- tension had been granted. But tho law provides that when taxes are not paid by to-night a notice shall be sent to the delinquent and he must then pay within ten coys of the time the note was sent. When payment ts made within the ten days set no penalty will be tm- posed. After that the delinquent must pay five per cent. of the tax in addi- tion, together with interest at one per cont. a month.

These included parades, salutes to the flag, flag raisings, patriotic addresses, pledges of loyalty to the United States andthe singing of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” and patriotic war songs. Harlem was literally hidden under the folds of the Stars and Stripes, so generous Was the display of flags in that section. There too occurred perhaps the most pretentious cele- bration in the form of a parade fol- lowed by ceremonies at Mount Morris Park. The parade on the lower east side was specially impressive in view of the participation of many different | | | nationalities.
