The column answers questions most frequently asked by taxpayers. HUNTING SAFETY Hunting season can mean accident season if you aren't careful. A hunting accident can spoil the fun of hunting - and may even spoil a life. Use these rules of the woods to prevent hunting accident: - Wear a bright, blaze- orange hat and vest for easy recognition by other hunters. - Unload guns and lay them down when crossing a fence alone. After crossing a fence, retrieve your firearm stock first. - Open the action or unload your gun before jumping or crossing a ditch or small stream. - If hunting with friends, give your gun to a companion when crossing a fence. - Point the muzzle forward, either up or down, while carrying your gun. Never point the gun at another person. - Don't hunt where there are houses, livestock or other people. - Keep snow and mud out of your gun's barrel. - Know where your hunting companions are at all times. -- Before you aim, be sure it is game. * -Do not shoot at hard or flat surfaces or at water. -Unload and clean guns when you're through with them. Store in a locked cabinet. About the only thing youngsters nowdays will do for a dime is to argue that it should have been a quarter. TEEN'S AND WOMEN'S KRINKLE PATENT Debbie CrUty, left, and Chris Bohac are shown preparing Christmas club checks for mailing to 2,409 Christmas club members at McHenry State bank. Mail Christmas Club Checks To 2,400 Members Tuesday, Nov. 7, the McHenry State bank mailed in excess of $310,000 in checks to more than 2,400 Christmas club members. Local merchants will be interested in knowing that surveys show approximately one-third of the amount saved is actually used for Christmas shopping and a similar amount is usually converted into a savings account. The remaining balance is normally used to pay bills or to make a down payment on a major purchase. The Christmas club originated in 1910 and now exceeds 1.5 billion annually. Over 100 million savers had their first contact with banking through the Christmas club program. McHenry State Bank Christmas club grows larger each year and the trend con­ tinues to be for early distribution of checks. To insure early mailing next year, the new 1973 Christmas club is now opened.

Daily 9 to 9 Sundays 9 to 6 Q) When cleaning house, I came across some records I used to prepare my 1970 tax re­ turn. Can I throw them away? A) No. You should keep tax records that support an item of income or a deduction at least three years from the date the return was due or filed, which­ ever occurs later. Records of property transactions should be kept for as long as they are material in determining the cost or other basis of your property. Q) I sold my home at a loss. Can I deduct the loss on my tax return? A ) No. A loss on the sale or exchange of your residence is not deductible* In addition, should you buy a new home, this loss would have no effect on the basis of your new residence. Q) I just sold my summer cottage and I plan to buy a new summer home in a few months. Can I postpone the tax on the gain I realized from the sale? A) No. If you have more than one residence, only the sale of your principal residence qualifies for the rule allowing the postponement of tax. Q) This year I will probably receive more than $200 in in­ terest and taxable dividends in addition to my salary. Do I have to file a Federal estimated tax return? A) No. Because of a change in the tax law, you do not have to file a declaration of estimated tax (Form 1040-ES) merely because you have in­ come from sources other than wages, such as interest and taxable dividends, unless you receive more than 8500 not subject to withholding. For more detailed informa­ tion on the new requirements for filing estimated tax re­ turns, see IRS Publication 553, "Highlights of 1971 Changes in the Tax Law." It's available free from your Internal Rev­ enue district office; Q) I donated some old clothes to my church. Can I get a tax deduction for making a chari­ table contribution? A) Yes. You may deduct as a charitable contribution the fair market value of the clothes at the time of your donation. Fair market value is the price at which property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to sell. Usually, the value of old clothing is far less than its original cost since a buyer is normally not willing to pay the same or nearly the same price for used clothing as he would pay for new.
