NOTEPAD - Wild River Brewing & Pizza Co.’s Jerry and Bertha Miller hosted a large group of Illinois Valley High School students Thursday evening, Feb. 24.

But only two students signed up. (His sons, Daniel and Celilo). Also, only three students signed up for “Newspapers,” and the session was canceled, leaving Editor Bob time to take more pho- tos) … Speaking of Editor Bob, he received a form let- ter from an organization wanting to build a “Wall of Tol- erance.” How about a Plain of Tolerance or a Circle? … It’s been noted recently that the expression, “You sound like a broken record,” means nothing to numerous “young” people … Also, there’s a huge group out there that doesn’t know (or care) who “Mork” was, or where he was from. And as far as they know, Jay Leno has al- ways been the host of the “Tonight Show” … Practices are under way for IVHS baseball, softball, track and golf teams ... T-shirt: If I’m talking, you should be taking notes … Another T: Don’t make me get the flying mon- keys! … Last T: It’s better to have loved and lost than to live with the psycho the rest of your life. LAST WORDS - To be able under all circum- stances to practice five things constitutes perfect virtue; these five things are gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness and kindness. (Confucius) Four from valley recognized with Asset Building awards Three Illinois Valley residents are among 31 per- sons recognized with Asset Builders awards in connec- tion with supporting and encouraging youth. Co-sponsored by the Josephine County Commis- sion for Children and Fami- lies, and the Focus Teen Council, the awards cere- mony was held at Grants Pass High School Wednes- day night, Feb. 23. Recognized from I.V.: *Selma resident Laura Thompson, for her work with College Dreams. *Jessica Pittman, a stu- dent at I.V. High School, for her work with the Boys & Girls Club. *Jacque Doney, for her work as outreach supervisor at Siskiyou Community Health Center in Cave Junc- tion. They were cited for go- ing “above and beyond to support and encourage youth,” said Sara McDon- ald, director of the county commission for children and families. A girl phoned me the other day and said, “Come on over, there’s nobody home.” I went over. Nobody was home. - Rodney Dangerfield - exercised their right to vote. Now they’ll have to live with it. We now know what Bush wants to cut. Some probably think the cuts will not affect them. Wrong. Maybe someone can explain to us vets why he reduced the money for the V.A., yet wants more money for the war, creating more veterans. When they come home and are dis- charged, they will find out what their president did to the very organization set up to assist veterans. This doesn’t surprise me. After all he’s not a real vet, nor does he have any sons. Remember females have never had to sign up for Selective Service. The income tax From J.D. Freeman Cave Junction The Social Security Act was passed Aug. 15, 1935. It was sold to the people as CJ annexes Daisy Hill properties With two favorable votes, the Cave Junction City Council approved annexation of two proper- ties, both on Daisy Hill Road, totaling slightly more than 15 acres, effec- tive immediately. The action followed two public hearings and related matters during the council meeting in city hall Monday night, Feb. 28. Annexation of One River Farm, comprising some 12.26 acres, was ap- proved 3-0, as Councilman Rita Dyer was absent, and Councilman Russell Ehr- man removed himself from discussion or voting. He said that he did so because he is on the farm board. The annexation was requested by Viola Brum- baugh, president of One River Farm. The other property, consisting of around 2.88 acres, was approved 4-0. The request for annexation was by Shahoma McAl- ister, who owns the prop- erty with Gary D. Boudreaux. Both properties were taken into the city with single-family residential zoning.

Section 3101 (a) and (b) of Title 26, the Income Tax Code, are as follows: Title, “(a) Old age and disability insurance,” (b) Hospital in- surance.” The body of the law, which is the law, reads as follows: “In addition to other taxes there is hereby imposed on the income of every individual a tax…” When we signed the Social Security contract we became a taxpayer and re- ceived an S.S. number, which was not to be used for identification. Yet Sections 6676 and 6109 of Title 26 make it clear that the S.S. number is your tax I.D. number. Thus has the govern- ment lied to us. No longer is it neces- sary to sign the S.S. contract to become a taxpayer. If, when you are of legal age, 18 years, you voluntarily use the S.S. number as- signed to you at birth, you have tacitly admitted that you are under contract to the government and are a tax- payer. To be free of the in- come tax always write the word “Duress” in the num- ber and signature spaces before filing them out. This applies to all government tax forms. Ignorance can never be free, so, if you wish to be free, know the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and Bible laws. Also it is necessary to be familiar with many of man’s laws.
