MADE.
STATE AUDITOR OUTLINCS
INSTRUCTIONS TO COUNTIES
They, in Turn, Will Be Explained to
Township Assessors Vt Meeting With
County Auditor. Saturday Banks
and Their Real Estate and Soldiers'
Exemptions.
Changes In Instructions to assessors
wll be explained by County Auditor
W. E. McLeland at his annual meeting
with the township assessors to be held
in this city Saturday, Jan. 5. The
instructions have been received by the
county auditor from the state auditor,
and the changes will govern the assee
ments to be made soon by the township
assessors.
Assessment of banks and their real
estate and the exceptions allowed to
Boldlers, are the principal Item* con
sidered. The rules now governing the
assessments are outlined by the state
auditor as follows:
Assessment, of banks—Wo 3, follow
ing the heading, "Assessment Rolls,"
covering assessment of banks, the re
ference is to code supplement 1913 in
stead of 1W7, and following the words
"and the assessors from such statement
shall fix the value of such stock based
upon the capital, surplus and undivided
earnings," they have added "and other
elements of value."
In the following sentence it states
that the amount of real estate shall
be deducted "at the assessed value
thereof," and at the end of the para
graph they have added: "In addition to
the capital stock, surplus and undivided
earnings the assessor should ascertain
whether the surplus and undivided
earnings were Increased during the
preceding calendar year and the
amount of dividends distributed dur
ing the same period and consider such
facts in. determining the value of the
stock."
The paragraph entitled "Values of
real estate" Is changed to read as fol
lows!
Value of real estate—The value of
any real estate to be deducted from
bank stock Is the value placed upon
same for taxation purposes and not
the value at which It may be carried
upon the tooOka of the institution.

AMUSEMENT*.
At the 8trand.
One of the best photo-playe in which
Francis X. Bushman and Beverly
Bayne have been seen recently in lo
cal picture houses, is "The Voice of
Conscience," beipg shown at the Strand
It is a production combining both
thrills and charm, and has many excit
ing and interesting incidents depicting
nearly every phase of life, from the
misery of a prison cell to the rapture
of iove confessed.
In the dual role of William Potter
and James Houston, Mr. Bushman is
given an opportunity for the delinea
tion of strong characterization, which
he handles in an effective manner. Miss
Bayne, as Allane Houston, has a part
which is well suited' to her' talents and
plays with a grace and charm that Is
most appealing. The rest of the char
acters are all in capable hand9 and
the play tells a good story effective
ly, has plenty to excite and hold the
interest, and is rather better than the
average offering.
An interesting reel of the Pathe se
ries, showing the process of "Lace
Making," and an animated cartoon, are
shown also.
At the Casino.
The week-end program of vaudeville
and pictures at the Casino, provides a
good evening's entertainment. "Cu
pid's Garden," eight people in a musical
comedy, Is the headllner. It is well
staged, has plenty of action with slng
1 ng and dancing, the eccentric d&nolng
of the two principals being a feature
of the act. Billy Small, an unusually
good violinist, makes a hit with his
musical numbers. Bert Davis keeps
the audience laughing with his line of
talk and comic songs, and closes his
act in a rather novel manner. The
Killarney duo please with their songs
and are well received.
"Jim GrlggVj Decision," featuring
William S. Hart, and the Pathe news
weekly complete the bill, which -drew
capacity houses Thursday night.

Interesting Points
Concerning Complex
income Tax Law
The act of Oct. 8 Is i^troactive in so
far as the entire calendar year of 1917
is concerned.
Every person paying $800 a year or
more to another must make a report of
such payment to the internal revenue
collector.
Gross Income must be scheduled.
Gross Income Includes salaries^
wages and gains from professions, vo
cations, business, trades and commerce?
gains and profits from sales In or
growing out of ownership or use of
property, real or (personal compensa
tion for personal services income from
interest, rent, dividends, securities,
transactions of any business carried
oh for gain or profit, gains, profits, amd,
in fact, Income derived from any source
whatever.
Excluded in Gross Income.
Exclude in reporting gross income:
Proceeds of life Insurances paid upon
tho death of the insured.
Premium returned to the insured un
der life endowment, annuity oontracts.
Property acquired by gift, devise, be
quest, descent, but the Income from
such property shall be Included as In
come.
Interest on the'obligations a state
or any political subdivision thereof, and
of the United States, after Sept.
1917, only If and to the extent provid
ed in the act authorising the issue
thereof. The first issue of liberty
bonds carries only the inherltaanoe tax,
and the second Liberty loan bonds car
ry the surtax and the Inheritance tax,
and are tax free up to the lnoome on
$8,000 bonds, other laws then regulat
ing the surtax.
Must Noti B* Scheduled.
Obligations of any' possession of the
United Staites must not be scheduled
Farm loon securities Issued under
the act of July 17, 1«9«, are tax free.
Income is to be reiported on the basis
of actual receipts and disbursements.
A promissory note accepted In payment
of an obligation Is treated as cash,
Easter offerings and fees received by
clergymen for funerals, marriages, bap
tisms. masses, etc., are regarded as
Income.
Christmas gifta are not regarded as
income. However, bonuses given in re
turn for "services rendered" or as a
stimulant to energetic future services
have beon held to be taxable as income.
Based on Coat Price.
The act of Sept. 8, 1916, provides:
"For the purpose of ascertaining the
gain derived from the sale or other dis
position of property, real, personal, or
mixed, acquired before March 1, 1913,
the fair market price or value shall be
based as of March 1, 1913, and this
value shall be the basis for determin
ing the amount Of such gain derived.
After March 1, 191)8, on all property
sold, traded, etc., gain Is to be based on
cost price."
Where property that has been ac
quired by gift, descent, devise, or be
quest is subsequently sold at a price
greater than ihe appraised value at
the time the property was acquired,
or, if acquired before March 1, 1913,
the fair market value at that date is
the basis for computing the gain, which
Is taxable.
1N0 Account of Fluctuations.
No account is taken for the purposes
of the income tax of fluctuations In
market value or book values of secur
ities or. other property, but a gain or
loss Is counted on a completed transac
tion on the basis of iprlce considera
tion.
In speculative operations ono oan
show losses on completed trades, but
not In excess of winnings.
The cost of improvements made by a
tenant as part payment of rent Is to
be added to rent as income of the land
lord.
partnerships as such are not re
quired to make income tax returns, ex
cept when requested, but each partner
snaii report his sntu-a of tiie riv8ti
therein, whether distributed or not
Same laws relate to nonreportlng of
Interest on obligations held of any
state or government bonds other than
the second Liberty 4s.
Must 'Report Dividends.
The Individual, however, shall report
his share of any profits from dividends
earned by the (partnership under prop
er title on official blank.
It 1s obligatory on the part of the
individual to obtain forms for returns
of income tax.
If a taxpayer's Income is determined
at some time during the calendar year
the return so determined is to be re
ported in the' Individual's return for
the calendar year ending (Dec. 81 of the
same year.
