Interest must be paid during the taxable year to be deductible, if you are on the casli receipts and disbursements basis -- and most taxpayers filing individual returns re on such basis. If you owed interest for se.'eral years and j>ai«i the.accumulate! amount all in oneyear. you may still claim your payment, if you are on the cash receipts and disbursements basis. However Jf you are on the accrual basis th>? int?r?it does not have to be pflid to be deductible: but the obligation of interest must have accrued during the taxable year. Many taxpayers want to deduct the payments on the principal ot a loan in addition to the interest. However, no payment that is a return of principal is a deduction for income tax purposes nor is it includible by aity taxpayer who receives repayment of the principal amount of a loan he made to someone else. It is important to retain receipts for all interest deductions claimed. The money paid on merchandise purchased "on time" is not classified as interest. That portion above the legal amount of chargeable as interest is called a "carrying charge" or service charge; it does not represent interest and is .-*HQt deductible as expense. In ordfejr to determine the exact tor or hospital and a nurse must acompanv the individual, the expenses you pay for both are incurred for the "mitigation and alleviation" of suffering and are deductible against your income. If you should hire someone ft act as both1 practical nurse and housekeeper, the expense must be allocated between tn» time spent on each duty, ajid oply the expense of that portion for actual nursing is deductible and Includible as medical expense. The money paid to nursemaids and baby sitters is strictly personal and does not qualify as medical expense. It is important to a taxpaver claiming deductions to retain all receipts for such expenses. la the event of an audit of his return, he will be able td substantiate any deduction claimed. •i.

THE arrival of King Winter is a cue for King Cotton to go north. 4 j ' Although generally considered a summer fabric, cotton has successfully stolen this year's snowy fashion scene by virtue of its light weight and versatility. The cotton boucle tweed suit (right), for instance, makes a practical, crUsh-resistant travel costume. Featuring a belted, butfctyifcfipnt blouse, the suit achieves graceful lines with a slim tqwring skirt. Black accessories* a gold choker and novelty bracelets further compliment the pert ensemble. " -For the outdoor girlen route to m Winter sports resort, a corduroy suit won accolades at the National Cotton Council showing in New York. The New York designers teamed a boxy braid-trimed jacket and slim skirt with a tattersall-checked corduroy weskit (left). Light-colored gloves and a velvet-trimmed tailored felt hat gave added zest to the smart and practical outfit. And the jacket may be worn as a separate with harmonising or contrasting skirt. The skirt, too, can do double duty in the wardrobe. Both creations, previewed in New York, seem to indicate that Cotton is on the march and will henceforth move north for the winter as spon as the birds streak south. you and your family come and worship with us.
