Check Off $1 On Tax Return, Democratic Party Asks RALEIGH ?? North Carolinians are urged by Steve Glass, executive director of the Democratic Party, to designate SI on their income tax return to the political party of their choice. Glass noted that the North Carolina General Assembly ap proved the tax check off for state income taxpayers in the 1975 session (G.S. 105-155.2). "This will not increase a person's taxes or decrease the amount of their refund." he said. The state income tax provision is identical to the federal tax check off which goes to Presidential candidates of both parties during the primary and is available to nominees of both parties during the general election campaign. Money from the North Carolina check off goes to established political parties for use in the general election. Glass said. "The tax check offs on federal and state income tax are not solely in the interest of the Democratic Party but in the inter est of better government for North Carolina and our nation. I urge all North Carolinians concerned with having good government on the state and national levels to check off SI on both their federal and North Carolina income tax forms." General Fund Up Over February 76 February 1977 net General Fund collections amounted to $158.7 million. After adjustment for a distortion caused by the change (from quarterly to monthly) in the manner of collecting money with held by certain employers, this represents a percentage increase of 6.86 percent over February 1976, according to revenue officials. For the First eight months of the current fiscal year, net General Fund collections were SI. 2192 bil lion compared with SI. 0340 billion for the first eight months of the 1975-76 fiscal year. If the year to date General Fund collections are adjusted to give effect to the change in the method of remitting income tax withheld by employers, the percentage of increase over the same eight month period of 1975 76 will be 14.17 percent. Without adjusting for the above mentioned distortion, the respec tive percentage changes would have been a decrease of 9.32 percent and an increase of 17.90 percent as shown on the attached schedule. February net Highway Fund collections amounted to $56.2 mil lion compared with S58.6 million collected in February 1976. a decrease of S2.4 million, or 4.02 percent. Gasoline tax receipts amounted to $19. 9 million com pared with S19.2 million collected Nation 's Leading Art Patrons To View * Southeast 7 ' Opening Winston - Salem's status as the cultural center of the Southeast will receive national recognition on April 2 with the opening of "The Southeast 7". an exhibition of the works of regional artists awarded fellowships in a competition co ? sponsored by the National En dowment for the Arts and the Southeastern Center for Contemp orary' Art (SECCA).

Read Romans 12: 9-17 "Let your aims be such as all men count honourable." (Romans 12: 17 NEB) 1 was with a minister friend when he bought and paid for two pairs of socks. When he unwrapped them at home, he found that the clerk had included a third pair. "1 shall have to take them back." he observed to his ten-year-old son. "Why?" the astonished son re plied. "The store is wealthy and we are not." "They don't belong to me be cause 1 haven't paid for them." the father explained. Father and son went back to the store and returned the socks. The father saw the clerk responsible and explained what had happened. The son told me later that this was the clearest lesson in Christian living he had ever received. Many people today have no .interest in the way Jesus taught and lived. It is next to impossible to maintain God's standards of hon esty and conscientiousness in work and morality. Yet how important it is that we try. People have heard a lot of preaching, and they have not found it all satisfying. Yet when the teaching of Jesus Christ is lived out in a human life, persons will take notice. PRAYER: Father, we thank Thee for our Lord's honest life on this earth. Grant that by Thy power and presence we may show the world that it is possible to live Jesus' teaching today. Amen. THOUGHT FOfc THfe DAY An honest life shows that Jesus Christ is alive. - copyright -- THE UPPER ROOM -Gordon Chilvers ( Norwich ..

Recent experiments show, however, that the nuclei of uranium atoms actually resemble misshapen footballs.
