Bentley, well-known apeagan historian at PrincetoA university^ M^ains la an article written for tti new World Book encyclopedia that the versa is er example of Shakespeare's rare Insight Into the customs of his day. The author relates that Shakespeare is buried in the chancel of Holy Trinity church. In ICngHfh churches, people were buried under the floor of the church, year after year, for centuries, and space began to be a problem. When all the available burial facllitiea were exhausted, the sexton removed the remains of those who had been forgotten and tossed them unceremoniously into the carnal house, where dead bodies and bones were kept. When Shakespeare selected his final resting place, he noted that the opening for thS carnal house was oqly a few feet from his future grave. Relying 6n the superstition the sexton--and having a firm oelire to rest in peace--Shakespeare requested a verse be placed on a fiat stonik over his grave.

Ordinarily the basis for depreciation is the cost of the asset plus any c6st of installation or getting the asset ready for use. Often an asset consists of more! than one part, one of which is not j subject to an allowance For de-' preciation. The most common: example of this is the purchase of land and a building. Inasmuch as j the land and building are bdught» as a unit it is necessary to allocate | the purchase price equitably be- ; tween the two. This is necessary | because, although the building is depreciable, the land is not. The allocation must be made on a rea-1 sonable basis, usually the fair mar- j ket value on the. day ot the pur- I chase. j If a man boug-ht a building and: lot for $10,000 and similar lots in j the neighborhood ^vere selling for ; #2,000 he shonld allocate %t,000 to the lot and the remaining $8,000 to th*» building. If changes, improvements or malor repairs were necessary to make the building snitahle for' the taxpayers' purpose, their cost should be added to the cost of the In computing depreciation lit is necessary to know only three things: Proper basis, estimated life and-salvage value.

It comes from a specially shaped piston, designed to roll each foel charge into a compact, whirling, ball-shaped mass. It goes a step beyond high-compression ratios, because it means better mixing of fuel -- and so better burning. Result: More good from each fuel charge. A touch more life, pep, ginger. More of that happy, satisfying feel of power and zip that give Buick its good name as a performer.
