For communities to be vainglorious is as natural and human a3 for the individual. Alan of both sexes and all RCS diarly loves to talk about himself, point out his little excellei.cies, emphasize the good deeds of self and make for himself a niche in the hall of fame. The community is; a colony of men and as such must display the traits of men. i,' Next to boosting oneself men and women prefer "'Selling" the home town. Among their own townspeople they discuss the fine points and peculiar advantages of the home town in contrast rather than comparison with tho neighboring "burgs." Every visitor and stranger in town must hear the whole history and note tho progress of the community. The American people are invariably patriotic and loyal to nation, state, county, town and self. r; Amo.ig community institutions most prized and proudly displayed three are especially outstanding: Good churches, ,'" r "'c'"' 1 '" j i i i i . .

I'eopie mix ot their line stores, their ornamental public buildings, their prominent citizens, but first and hist they are concerned with their churches, schools and streets. ' Ihe town or city seeking a higher population can not better obtain that end than by building modern streets, providing their children with suitable school buildings and erecting monumental church edifices. Ask the prospective citizen what he would demand for his adopted community and he will say without hesitation, "schools, churches and streets, the best that money can buy." ( Until it has ' provided the best in these necessities of modem life no community lias done its full duty to its citizens. TUB IV IlIC.

Ilegularly thereafter, at iiuarterly periods, eriual sums will be paid on personal incomes and profits. Two billions of dollars and enough more to build two battleships were received by the national treasury from these sources in the last fiscal year. Kven more may be oxpected in 'CJ A great army of more than 7,0(10,000 wane earners are walking, up to Uncle Sam's windows lo pay their assessed share toward tho expenses of government. That is more than one in every six of all gainfully employed persons more than 10 years of age. Five millions' of them will be paying taxes on incomes between $1,000 and 93,000, and nearly another million on incomes between $3,000 and ? 1,000. , Millions more lire exempted from making a report to the government by law. Single men with a net income, after lawful deductions, of less than .$1,000, and married men with a net income, after deductions, of less than $2,000 ain not required to go through the formality. Thus the nunilicr of persons filing income tax' reports is by no means a measure of the number receiving gross incomes of more than $1,000 or $2,000. . It is safe to assume that the proportion of workers in the United States who receive such Incomes is much more than one in six. The number whoso, incomes fall in that twilight zone exempted from necessity of reporting because of deductions must be large. That the government's revenue is depleted by evasions, however, has been repeated stated on high authority, even by the secretary of the treasury, and energetic efforts havu been put rorth to round up the "slackers." Year by year; the number who evade may be expected to be dimin ished by the improved operation of the great system nec essary to care for the accounting m ,v the aroused sense i'.' ot obligation on the part of the citizenship. ., THELOPEN COURT t'Oltlll SI'OMH .M s M lisT sriiMrr im iit .mi:sto nil-: i Diroit ir -nn:v ni:- Sllti: 1.1 I li lts I'KIMMi. ilabl h family hail a few- days of HlelitlesH, but are, much better by iiiih Mine.
