Pooh and Mr. Heath‘s dog, Mackie, are going sight secing and are on Laure! avenue when the« story conâ€" tinues : Just then a paper fluttered in the shrubbery and Mackie asked Pooh if he cared to stop and read it. Pooch was tired and he hadn‘t seen a paper since he left New York, so they sat down under a tree. It was the Highland Park Pressâ€"the front pageâ€"as Pooh ran his eye down the columns he disâ€" covered this : Rowena Bennett Reads Poem To Ravinia Club Rowena Bennett, author and formâ€" er editor, read selections from her poems at the first program of the year of the Ravinia Garden club, which met Oct. 9 at the home of Mrs. g’:l'y Phillips, 2501 N.

Since Mrs, who is carrying on in the footsteps of her wellâ€"known writer son, Curtis Rodgers, while he is amâ€" blance driving in Africa, by writing her first story for the North Shore Creative Writers, bases her plot on a Press typographical error which apâ€" peared in the Oct. 15 issue. It seems appropriate that we should have the exclusive right of reâ€"printing this excerpt.

You said she was a wee bearnâ€"wouldn‘t she be more apt under those circumâ€" stances, to warm the bearings of your heart? I‘m sure I‘ve heard the exâ€" pression some place." & "Possibly you have," Mackie anâ€" swered, without smiling, "but in this case the word is ‘cockers‘ I have it on the authority of my cousin the spanâ€" iel, whose master is a veterinarian." "Why she is doing the same sort of work as Mr. Milne," he said. "I‘d like to meet some of her book characters, and "Animal Writers Conference" sounds as if you had pretty clever aniâ€" mails in Highland Parkâ€"ever been to one of these meetings, Mackie?" "Only as far as the door" said Mackie but I know Mrs. Bennett by sightâ€" you should see her new wee bairn, so bonnie she warms the cockers of your heart." OF NORTHERN ILLINOQIS Plume E. Rodgers When they reached the Y steps Mackic remained outside. He told Pooh he would be wainting to take him back to his Dobbs hat box, so to have a good time and not worry. The door was open and Mackie sat down on the porch to see if everything was going to work out all right. He heard Miss Ames ask Pooh for his ticket and his reply that he had hoped to go in as a guest for there wasn‘t any money in his combination suit. Miss Ames laughed and said all rightâ€"the writers usually forgot their tickets anyway. Suddenly recognizing him she added, "I‘ll give you a complimentary ticket, for considering who you are it will be an honor to have you with us." he never let me finishâ€"all by myseif i I‘d like to get a criticism from her."

So hilariously set up by this that he could hardly stand it, Pooh composâ€" ed a poem there and then which he sang as he passed Miss Wood and Mrs. Pierce, but they exchanged snifâ€" fish glances. Here is the poem: "I went to the Animal Class On a beautiful bright blue pass Mrs. Bennett gave talks i Using blackboard and chalks A briefcase of notes and a glass." Of course Miss Wood and Mrs. "O, dear I‘m scared, but stil I‘m eager" said poor Pooh. 1 wonder if you would listen to it and tell me what you think of it first?" "Go ahead man, 1 can listen." Poohk carried it all in is head and he started right off : "On Friday when it cares to rain I often ask myself again Why bears of very little brain Unknownimuss anon remain." "It sounds fine but makes no sense," said Mackic frankly. five to tenâ€"the class begins at tenâ€" if we hurry we can just make it."

For individuals generally, this must be done by March 15 following the end of the calendar year. The return must be filed with the appropriate Collector of Internal Revenue for the district in which is located the legal residence or principal place of busiâ€" ness of the person making the return. Under the present law every single person, and every married person not living with husband or wife, having An income tax return is a declaraâ€" tion on the part of the taxpayer of his total taxable income for the year, together with the various deductions, exemptions, and credits to which he is entitled. It is in reliance upon voluntary disclosures, and the integâ€" rity of taxpayers generally, that the cost of administration of the income tax can be kept at a minimum. Though the return is a voluntary statement, any person who willfully makes a reâ€" turn which he does not believe to be true and correct in every material matter is subject to the penalties proâ€" vided by law. As a result of the lowering of exâ€" emptions, many more persons are now subject to the Federal income tax than before, and for the calendar year 1942 it is estimated that more than 35 million persons will file Federal income tax returns. To the large number of persons now subject to the Federal income tax, who have never reported income before for Federal tax purposes, an understandâ€" ing of the law and applicable regulaâ€" tions is of prime importance. vices; it includes also the net value received for the product of one‘s labor, as farm produce in the case of a farmer; income from investments; profit from business operations; and other gains from sales and exchanges of goods and property. Certain limited categories of income are, however, tax exempt, and to the extent of such exemption are excluded in computing the tax. «Because of exemptions from the tax given to persons having less than certain stated amounts of income, as well as because of various dedustions and credits allowable, only a small proportion of the number of persons receiving income have until recently been subject to the tax. Thus, of the estimated 55 million persons in this country who received income in one form or another during the calendar year 1941, only some 26 million perâ€" sons were required to file Federal inâ€" come tax returns for that year, while of these same 26 million, more than 9 million were not taxable due to credits and deductions allowable. What is Income Tax? The federal income tax is, as the name implies a tax levied upon inâ€" comes, and it is payable in relation to the amount of income. Income, for Federal income tax purposes, means in generai any compensation for one‘s services, whether the compensation be Born in Chicago, she came to Highâ€" land Park 16 years ago and made her home with her sister, Miss Martha Gould Mason.
