A married person drawing $40 per week or $2080 a year with no dependents, taxes or dona tions, would pay one per cent on $80 or 80 cents. These same ratios npply until the income for cither is $1000 net. Between $1000 and $2000 net income one and one fourth per cent, above $2000 net Income the rate in creases one-fourth per cent per $1000 lip to $5000 net and above that the rate increases one-half per cent per $H000 ret, up to $12,000 and all above! that takes 6 per cnt straight. j i jfnte Income tax rate is the same: for corporations' and Individuals. j Federaj reports, must be made prior, to Marqh, lG and itiittf reports prior to; March pQ. : - All' state reports must have attach ed a cpoy of the corporation, part nership or individual reports for the same period.

AT The Medford high school basketball team returned Sunday from the north winning and losing a game. The game with the Oregon Fresh men Is described by the Eugene Reg ister as follows: The evening game was also a good exhibition of hoop work, plthough the frosh had a decided edge. Knips was the best man for Medford. The Albany high school game Is de scribed thusly, by the Sunday Demo crat: The Albany high basketball squad suffered its second defeat of tho week end last night In the Central high gym, when the Medford delegation handed it the light end of a 32-16 score. The battle was replete with rough playing from start to finish, numerous fouls being called throughout. Med lord started rolling in counters from the floor at the beginning, but the locals experienced difficulty In lo cating the basket. Tho tries during the initial canto were about equally distributed. Only once, and that at the beginning of the second half, did Al bany Btago a comeback.

The headquarters assembly of tho scout troops Saturday night was the most successful yet held from many standpoints. All tho troops mado a fine showing. Aro address by Colonel C. G. Thomson, superintendent of Crater Lake park, with the new pic tures of the tour of the park made a real hit with the boys. Many of the scenes taken from rare points of van tage were pronounced by visitors pres ent as the finest they had ever seen. The geological formation and struc ture of the region and the ancient vol cano, now a great hollow water filled crater, were moBt Interestingly dis cussed. Colonel Thomson has con sented to prepare a number of other features to present before the local scouts In the future. - Scout Commissioner Coan announc ed that one regular headquarters as sembly would be held In February. The court of honor composed of the folowlng members of the local council will soon convene to pass upon the qualifications of the candidates for the second class rank: F. J. Newman, A. C. Bevan, A. O. Smith, Dr. R. R. John son and E. E. Gore. The opening and closing ceremonies as displayed by Troops 6 and 7 wero exceptionally in teresting as this was thoir first pre sentation. All the troops are working hard to meet the qualifications required in or der that they may be presented with the national colors and their troop Hag. Some of them hope to receive them at the next general meeting. 1 !ES METHODIST SOUTH OPENED YESTERDAY Evangelist Hughes opened the special services at the Methodist Church, South, yesterday with two addresses of a kind seldom heard in these days. Ho is a fearless, direct, and yet exceptionally pleasant speak er. His long years spent In the corn memorial would lend a tons and man ner to his address which is perhaps quite rare. The general effect voic ed by those who heard him was, "we have heard nothing like that in many a day." Rev. Hughes is a champion of Bible faith and teaching shorn of every semblance of modern heresy and half-toned Infidelity, according to the pastor, Rev. J. B. Coan. A feature of the services Is a most inspiring and enjoyable half hour of song led by a large -chorus choir and a junior choir of boys and girls. These meetings will continue for fifteen days only. A number of interesting events are being planned for the jun ior choir with a banquet for them at the close of the meeting. The ser vices open at 7:30 tonight. The sub ject announced is 'Ciet Up and Go and Play the Game Straight." Be-j ginning tomorrow there will be ser vices at 10, 2:30 and 7:30 each day through the week. Dining Rooms . of Reputation , .

Q. HEWITT Income Tax Adviser 304 and 305 Medford National Bank Bldg Telephone 326 How We Spend Your Money in building Sttidebaker cars Why people buy 150,000 yearly TTT is true that we spend lavishly I) on Studcbakcr cars. But it's all JL- to your advantage. .' Jt is by that spending that we give you the greatest value in the fine-car field. We offer prices no one matches on any comparable cars. That lavish spending led people last year to pay $200,000,000 for Studebaker cars. And that volume brings our prices down to where they are. $50,000,000 in plants Studebaker assets are $90,000,000. In modern plants and equipment we have $50,000,000. Seventy per cent ot that amount was spent in the past seven years. So it represents the last word in equipment. $8,000,000 in drop forge plants, so every vital part is made to Studebaker standards. $10,000,000 in body plants, so Studebaker ideals may be shown in every body. ' All that is staked in a permanent way on satis fying fine-car buyers bet ter than our rivals. America. The' Light-Six more than any competitive car within $1,000 of its price. In closed cars we offer wondrous ' luxury. The lining is Chase Mohair, made from the fine fleece of Angora goats. Velour would cost about one third that, saving up to $100 a car. Note those bump- . that steel trunk, those extra dis. wheels, with cord tires on some models. Note that extra courtesy light. Think what they would cost if you bought them. The cost of care The unvarying standards in Stude baker cars are fixed by a department 1 What extras cost Don't Buy Blindly- Lack of vibration is a famous Studebaker fea ture. We get that by ma chining crank shafts as they were in Liberty Air plane Motors. That extra cost is over $600,000 yearly. Matchless endurance is another famous feature. One Studebaker Six, still in active use, has run 475,000 miles since 1918. We get that through costly steels. On some we pay 15 bonus to makerstoget formulas exact. i Beauty of finish is another su premacy. But that finish requires many operations, including 15 coats of paint and varnish. Our real leather cushions cost $25 per car over imitation leather. Every Studebaker car is Timken equipped. The Special-Six and the Big-Six have more Timken bearings than any car selling under $5,600 in Studebaker is today the leader in the fine-car field. ' It has made this concern the largest builder of qualify cars in the world. You can find nothing in cars at $1,000 or over to compare with Studebaker values. Studebaker sales have almost trebled in the past three years. The growing demand is the sensation of Motordom. For 72 years the name Studebaker has stood for quality and class. But never so much as today. Then don't buy a car at $1,000 or over without learning what we offer. LIGHT SIX 5-Paaa. 112" W. B. 40 H. P.

It is enormously expensive; Our constant improvements are due to ceaseless research. 125 ex perts devote their time to the study of betterments. They make 500,000 tests per year. That reliability is due to 12,000 inspections of the material and work manship, in each Studebaker car be fore it leaves the factory. This re quires 1,000 inspectors.

Last year, 13,000 men in our factories got anniversary checks total $1,300,000. After five years of service-those checks amount to 10 of their wages. : . We spend $2,000,000 yearly on our co-operative work for men, Every year we give factory em ployes one week's vacation with pay. That cost us $225,000 last year. We sell them stock on attractive terms. We retire old employes on pensions. ' - All this to keep men happy, to foster morale, and to keep men with , us when they develoo efficiency. Not extravagance . Do such things seem extravagant? They are not. All those extra dol lars save more dollars for our buyers. They result in the can you see, in the prices and values we offer. Nothing else in the field can com pare, t Those values have re sulted in a demand for 150,000 cars per year. That volume cuts our costs in two, as compared with limited production. The cause of over prices under-values is not lavish expenditure. It is Limited production. Heavy overhead. Out-of-date machinery, Antiquated methods, Non-economical plants, Transient labor, Discontented workers. -We've eliminated those things. We've done it at what seems to you a heavy cost per car. But each of those, extra dollars saves $5, we be lieve. Note what values and what prices have resulted. Note the amaz ing demand the overwhelming de mand it has brought for Sfrjsbsker cars. .1 B I G SIX 7-Pass. 126" W. B. 60 H. P. ' Touring 11750.00 Speedster (5-Pass.)
