McGinn of the New York State Income Tax bureau, who Is busy at this time of year an swering queries on "What don't I have to pay?" Gas and oil which she buys for her limousine, likewise, are not charge able to the business side of her oc cupation, but the powder and rouge which cover ber dainty face are rec ognized by the state government as a necessary asset for her job.

The flag should not be hoisted ; before sunrise nor allowed to remain i up after suntfet. It should not be displayed upon stormy days, nor left out over night. 2. When the flag is displayed at half staff, for 'mourning, it Is to be lowered to that position from the top of the staff. It is afterwards hoist ed to the top before It is finally low ered. 3.. When the flag Is formally rais ed, all present during tho ceremony should stand at attention, with hand raised to the forehead ready for the salute. . 4. The correct salute to the flag, as required by the regulations of the United States Army, is: Stunding at attention, raise the right hand to the forehead over the right eye, palm I downward, fingers' exteaded and close together, arm ut an angle of forty- five degrees. Move hand outward about a fOOt, With a quick motion. hen drop hand to the sjde. 6. When the colors are passing on parade, or in review, the specta- tor should.
