Mayor And Wife Guests Of Guild At First Play Mayor and Mrs. Geo. Freund of McHenry attended the first play of the season presented last Saturday night by the Woodstock Players as guests of the Theatre Guild. Moss Hart's. "Light Up the Sky" was the first presentation of the ten-week season. Next wek's play, presented on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings in the Woodstock Opera House, will be "Brighten the Corner" by John Cecil Holm, co-author of "Three Men on a Horse." Five McHenry residents were INCOME TAX Rales To Remember The personal exemption allowed for the tax payer under present Income tax law is $600 and an additional $600 for the taxpayer's spouse, if the spouse has no gross income, is not the dependent of another taxpayer and is not filing a separate return. An additional exemption^!*. allowed for the taxpayer if he has attained the age of 65 before the close of the taxable year. On' a joint return this would mean an additional exemption of $600 for each spouse meeting the above requirements. A further. exemption of $600 is allowed to each blind taxpayer who may also claim an additional exemption of $600 for a blind spouse. The same rules govern the allowance of the exemption for the blind spouse as govern the allowance of the ordinary exemption for a spouse. The exemption allowed for each dependent under the present law is $600. The tests for dependency are the same as for the 1949 return. It is to be noted that detotal amount of tax. In no may the total tax exceed 80 pkr cent of the net income. Exemptions The new Revenue Act of 1IS0 has not. changed the exemption of " $600 allowed to each taxpayer nor the additional exemption of $#00 allowed for the taxpayer's spotfae, if the spouse has no groaa income, is not claimed as the dependent of another person, or does not die a separate return. Even though the spouse's income may be leaf than $500 and a separate return filed to recover the tax withheld, that spouse may not be claimed as an exemption. It is usually advantageous to file jointly and report both incomes. The exemption allowed for each dependent remains $600, and the tests for dependency as listed below are the same as they were when you filed your return for 1949. 1. He or she received over onehalf of his or her entire support from you'in 1950. 2. He or she was closely related to you. 3. He or slje did not have $500 or more gross income of , his or her own in 1950. (Although the exemption allowance is $600, no one qualifies as a dependent who has more than $500 income.) 4. He or she, if married, did not file a joint return with his or her spouse. 5. He or she was a citizen of the 4000 Attracted To Ice Carnival The McHenry Township Kiwanis club's first benefit ice carnival held last Sunday, Jan. 14, attracted approximately 4,000 people and the net proceeds will add close to^ $1,000 to the underprivileged chil- Bhip Kiwanis club in appreciation dren's fund of the club.

It is to be noted further Canada or Mexico. that there is no additional exemption allowed a taxpayer because a dependent is blind or over 65 years of age. Income Splitting By Husband And Wife The present law gives husbands and wivei in all states the right to file joint returns on which their combined net income and their elected this year as officers of combined exemptions are divided the Theatre Guild. They include Mary Kauss as second vice-president; Claudia Partipllo, secretary; Nancy Howard, program committee chairman; Chuck Logan. publicity; and Dr. Lee Gladstone. heading the patrons' committee. TUESDAY RITES HELD IN BELVIDERE FOR SAMUEL ZVONAH 44 Samuel Zvonar. 44 years old. husband of the former Rosina Freund of McHenry, died in Belvidere last Sunday, Jan. 14, following a long period of poor health. Survivors include, besides the widow, two sons. Paul, attending I Purdue university, and George at! by two; the tax is then computed on half the income and such fax multiplied by two. In order to split the income it is necessary for a couple to file a joint return, because the gross income of the husband and wife must be totalled. Their deductions must be totaled. The net income is then divided by two and the tax Is computed on half of the net income. allowing one-half of the combined exemptions. This result is multiplied by two in order to obtain the tax on the combined income of husband and wife. Where only one spouse has income, both must sign to receive the benefits of income-splitting \ provisions. This method of conjputation cannot be used on a separate return. Standard Deduction . .

Percentage Credits Against The Tax The current Revenue Act does not Increase either the normal tax rate or the surtax rates. It achieves an increase in tax by decreasing the percentage credit allowed against the tentative normal tax and surtax. The credits now are: If the tentative tax is 1. Not over $400, credit is: 13 per cent of the tentative tax; 2. Over $400 but not over $100,000, $52.00 plus 9 3. BI TS PARTNERSHIP H. H.

Mrs. percent of excess over $400; Each taxpayer who fcaaiaftajfed the age of 65 years before the end of the vear will be allowed an additional exemption of $600 when he files. HL Thejallowance for the additional old^age exemption is limited In the same manner as for the ordinary exemption. A. jnarriad,./aTpayer can claim the old age exemption for his spouse on his separate return, if she has no gross income and is not claimed as a dependent of another taxpayer. A further exemption of $600 is allowed to each 'taxpayer who is blind at the close of the taxable year and'files a return. A married taxpayer may also claim an additional exemption of $600 for a blind spouse if she does not file separately. You are cautioned against claiming dependents whose support yo\i cannot substantiate by proper evidence. The mere act4 of. Writing the names and nddiresse^ gf those for whom you claim dependency on the tax return does hot mean such exemptions will be allowed. When the audit of your return is made, the exemption deducted on your 1950 retiji*o.for unqualified dependents will be (Us- i allowed as well as those disquull- ' J ied persons claimed on prior year> I til all Items of expense are reported. In view of the radio broadcasts of bad road conditions the day before the event and the overcast sky on the morning of the carnival, the attendance was gratifying. The returns were not up to the early estimates, but other benefits have accrued to the community and the Kiwanis club which cannot be measured in terras of dollar value. The ice carnival will bring national publicity for our community because It was filmed and photographed by Life Magazine, Look Magazine, Acme News Service, Pathe News Reel, .Paramount News Reel, AU-American News reel Telenews Reel, WGN-TV, NBC-TV and ten of the newspapers of Chicago and surrounding territory. The news reels will be displayed in theatres across the country a*d on practically all of the television stations in the near future. The harness races on Ice, of course, furnished the big thrills of tie day. "Revelere" owned by Tewese Brothers of Waukegan. was the final victor in the condition ' -trotting race. "Marine Siskyau," owned by H. Nehlig of Harvard, was the final winner in the 80 class pace race. "Margie L Marx" owned by Lyle Klowsky of Wisconsin, was the final winner in the free-for-all pace race. In this last race. If the judges had decidod the result on the basis of the b£st summary, as is usually done, (we are told), the winner should have been "Volo Sljk," owned by' H. Porter of Belvidere. The judges, however, set their own rules for judging the races and r their decision is final. The McHenry Township Kiwanis club can only say that they regret that any misunderstanding arose and promise that next «year the rules will be printed and accepted by the participants before the races start. The owner jot each winning horse was presented with a beautiful blanket bearing the Kiwanis insignia. This trophy was displayed by H. Nehlig when he, together With the Kiwanis vice-president.

After a rest of twenty-four hours, the club met Monday night and proceeded with plans for new activities for the coming months. Some of them will be of countywide interest and will be announced shortly. Lead Poisoning The ease of the bullets that'killed a calf without ever hitting it is reported by Maine veterinarians--not as a contribution to mystery fiction, but as a warning to cattle owners. The Maine veterinary medical association says a calf died of lead poisoning after licking a targetpractice board peppered with 22 bullets. Another report from the Maine organization tells of a case of lead poisoning in cattle due to chewing on an old piece of painted linoleum that had been thrown into a pasture. "Lead is lead from any source," the veterinary medical association warned. Most farmers are aware of the danger of letting animals lick lead paint, but they overlook the fact that lead in any other form may be just as attractive to cattle and just as deadly. The present Payroll Savings program embraces 21,000 large companies and many thousand smaller ones.

Thawing Fresen Meat AD frozen meats may he thawed before they are cooked or during cooking. However, meat that is thawed at ordinary room temperature should be cooked promptly because the warm, wet outer surface is an ideal place for spoilage to start. If meat is thaWed more slowly in the refrigerator, the surface remains cold and the thawed piece can often be held a day er longer without developing odors.

BOLGER'S Phone 40 e W O R D O F CAUTION TO POULTRY RAISERS Make Sun You Get Genuine /When you order Hy-Line chicks, make sure you get genuine Hy-Lines. Don't buy "the same as" Hy-Lines, "just as good as" Hy-Lines, or the Hy-Line "type". Insist upon the real Hy-Line. Hy-Line is a registered trade-mark. It can properly be applied only to chickens produced from inbreds developed by the Hy-Line Poultry Farms. Accept no others as Hy-Lines. And remember, the word "hybrid" isn't magic. Just because it is a hybrid chick doesn't mean that it is necessarily good. A good hybrid chicken must have years and years of intensive research, selection, and testing behind it. . You can count on Hy-Line superiority because Hy-Lines have been bred intensely since 1936 and are thoroughly rroven by years of testing. n 1949-50 Divided Flock Tests, they averaged 24% more eggs than average standard breeds. Before you buy hybrid chicks, make sure they're genuine Hy-Lines, bred like good hybrid seed corn. - Your Hy-Lln« Distributer McHENRY MILLS McHenry, Phone 615 3 miles northwest of Crystal Lake, Illinois, 1% mile southeast of Rldgefleld, 6 miles southeast of Woodstock, 1 mile east and 1M> miles north of the junction of Hwys. 14 and 176 on « FRIDAY.
