Mrs. Durkee had been ill for a long time, but had unproved to a marked degree, and her dear ones believed that she was to be permitted to remain with them yet a little while. It was not to be and she passed away Very suddenly on Saturday night. Funeral services for Mrs. Durkee were held from her late home on Tuesday afternoon, feev. N. A. Sunderlin had charge of the service and gave the following beautiful tribute to her memory: Ardelle Brown Durkee, daughter of Rufus and Louise Brown, was born May 2, 1854, in Dorr township on the Her childhood days were spent on the farm; there she learned the great lessons of life, her young life nurtured and developed under the benign influence of God's great out door she grew into a. maturity, loved and respected by all who knew her. Our pioneer parents brought with them from their far eastern home more than chattle or gold, they were the beautiful sentiments expressed by the church and school house. With them the church was God's meeting place with the children of men.

Age is not material, so that a minor child having an income of his own of $1,000 or over must file a return. Likewise, every married person hating a net income of over $2,000 is required to file a return. In this connection it is the combined income Of the husband and wife that determines whether a return must be filed,^eveh tho they choose to file separate returns. Furthermore, all persons having * gross income of $5,000 or over mu^t file a return, ^irrespective of the amount of their net income. Gross income for this purpose is the total erf all income before deductions. While partnerships are not subject to the tax, every partnership must file a return, showing the income of the partnership and how much of that income belongs to each partner. Corporations, not exempt from the tax, must file returns regardless of the amount of their incomes. Corporations that are affiliated with one another must file consolidated returns, if they have so elected. Corporations that have become affiliated this year are put on an election of filing either one consolidated return or separate returns for each company.
