Monthly Meeting at

panel discussion. Members of the

The principle theme seemed to be
the prevention of diseases, A few
statistics were given to show the comparison of deaths of small children
and' others, in years past and at the
present time. The advantages of vaccination and methods of immunization
\ver_ stressed. Mr. Webb described
the methods of sanitation now being
used, even in rural sections, to pre-*
vent the spread of contagion.
Mrs. Davison. stressed the parents'
part in being ever vigilant to see that
the child does not go to school if there
is suspicion of a contagious disease.
Mrs. Teachout described how the
teacher must be ever alert for suspicious symptoms and described the
signs one might look for. Miss
Knecht told of the many helpful
things now provided for the mother
in tbe care of the babies.
Dr. Lanting gave some very helpful
hints in the treatmnt of pinkeye and
other "minor illnesses. -:
The audience was given the privij
lege of asking. questions and several
took advantage, to obtain information
on some troublesome problem of
health.. The. statement was made
that Michigan leads in the better
health movement.

■ The Clare county quota of Red Cross
material for making and knitting garments for war refugees is now in the
hands of Clare County Chapter Vice-
Chairmaii Mrs. G. E. Lamb, of Farwell.
In many surrounding communities
this work is now well advanced and
Mrs. Lamb wishes to get the Clare
county work in operation as soon as
possible. She is taking charge in Far-
well herself and appointing township
production chairmen in the four southwest townships of the county.
Anyone willing to become production chairman in Clare and appoint
production chairmen in the four southeast townships, aud anyone in Har.l-
son to assume the office there and
appoint chairmen in the northern
townships, are requested to notify
Mrs. Lamb. This work is important
and imperative to alleviate the want
and suffering ot millions of war
refugees who have innocently become
the victims of European strife.
As soon as the county can be organized and the amount of material that
can be used estimated, this material
will be shipped here and made available free of charge to those who will
do their bit in making clothes to prevent further suffering of these victims
of fate, who though foreign born and
thousands of miles away, are human
beings even as you and I.
We are sure someone in these communities will get in touch and cooperate with Mrs. Lamb at once.

YULE TREE
LIGHTING BANNED
ONjTRUCKS
State Police Starting ott Enforcement pf New
Light Law
Chistmas tree lighting that looms
up out ot the night:'on the highway
ahead is today as out-moded as the
coniferous ghost on the ash pile that
was formerly the colorful center of
Yule festivities.        ,
The Michigan, legislature, of -two
years ago set up a standard for
vehicle lighting, deferring the effective date to permit, replacement of
both equipment and accessories along
prescribed lines.
The law became effective this month
and kaleidoscopic nightmares of the
highways are undey bap. Captain
Laurence Lyon of the Michigan State
Police said that enforcement orders
had gone out to all posts this week.
In addition to headlights and tail-
light, every bus or truck regardless
of its size, must have a l'ed reflector
at each side and one stop light.
Trucks and buses may no longer
carry three green warning lights on the
front and on the rear. Nor may any
vehicle, other than official emergency
vehicles (po_ieex fixe ami ambulance)
display lights except white or amber
to the front and red to the rear..
On vehicles 80 inches or more wide,
there must also be amber clearance
lights at the top front corners showing width and heighth; on each side
at the front one amber reflector, and
at the rear one red reflector. To comply with Interstate Commerce Regulations there must be two side-marker
lamps; amber near the front and red
near the rear.
. Police vehicles only may display
green "running" lights. Police and
fire department cars and ambulances,
may use rotating or blinking red
lights flashing a demand for right-of-
way.
Copies of the present Michigan
lighting requirements may be obtained by request from the Michigan
State Police, East Lansing, or from
any state police post.
The law is a safety measure, Captain Lyon said, in that drivers at
night can identify readily other
vehicles, their direction and their
length through standard lighting. He
said that" multi-colored lighting combinations cause confusion that results in accidents.

Forest D. Brewer, of Vernon township, purchased a half interest in the
L. H. Thompson implement.business
here, February 1st, and is now actively engaged .as Mr. Thompsoa's partner.
Mr. Brewer, who has operated a

M. B. Brewer, a former owner of the
business.. Mr. Thompson is well, known
throughout the community, having
been in the implement business here
for the past thirty years.
The. firm is now known as Brewer &
Thompson, and each gentlemen yrftt

The following information from the
Michigan State Tax Commissjoji will
further clarify the intangible tax; law
which requires the payment of such
taxes on or before March 1, of this
y6ar, and each subsequent year.
* Intangible personal property taxable under the act includes money,
stocks and bonds, mortgages and land
contracts, accounts receivable, royalties, annuities—all credits or evidences of indebtedness.
If your average bank balance in
1940 was $3,000 or less, you can forget about the tax so. far as bank deposits go. If in 1940, you had an
average of more than $3,000 in a bank
or banks, then your tax is $1 for each
$1,000 in excess of the exemption of
$3,000. If the money was anywhere
else, such as in a postal savings account, in a safety deposit box, or in
your* pocket, then there is no exemption. However, postal savings being
an interest bearing intangible is taxable at 6% of income. On non income
producing intangibles your tax will be
$1 for each $1,000 of your average
cash on hand during 1940.
If your tax amounts to $7 or less,
you have no tax to pay, and no return
to make This means that if bank
deposits are the only intangible holdings you own, you could have $10,000
in the bank and still owe no tax.
Man and wife file individual returns, each taking both exemptions,
which would mean $20,000 in deposits
for which there would be no tax.
What Was your average bank balance in 1940?
•The Tax Commission has ruled you
may call your September 30 balance,
the 1940 average. The date was set
after September 30 had passed. Some
date will be thus chosen each year.
If you think that September 30 does
not fairly reflect your average intangible holding for 1940, you may
average by the month,, quarterly, or
semi-annually. But if you select one
method of determining the average
of one class of holdings, such as your
bank bajance, then that same method
determines the average of all your
taxable credits the value of which
changed during 1940.
The tax is too low to justify anyone
in trying to evade it. All federal income tax returns filed by those subject to this law, are open to inspection by the Michigan State Tax
Commission The state will get one-
third the net revenues, informally
estimated at from $3,000,000 to $5,000,-
000 annually; cities and counties the
balance, in proportion to population.
William S.. Hibbard, district supervisor of the Intangible Division of the
State Tax Commission, is assisting in
computing the returns: of individualB
and hi solving various problems arising concerning the new tax in thi_ dis*
trict. Anyone wishing au appointment
may telephone 337J- Harrison.
A national defense program unit is
being established at Clare under the
auspices of the Federal Government
