THE YANCEY RECORD ~ Established July, 1936 ABNEY and TRENA FOX CO-PUBLISHERS & EDITORS 1 MISS HOPE BAILEY , ASSOCIATE EDITOR T. L.

U. Alley ** • * Note: This column is Written with malice toward none, but with the common good of all in mind. *» * * Well, Fellow Citizens, cheer up. A news item in the daily press says the Income Tax Forms for filing 1955 Tax re turns are now in the mails. Ac-i cording to this report these are the simplest Forms issued to date. Do not take this writer as an authority on it, for he humbly admits to getting worse confused and bewildered with the whole business of The In ternal Revenue Department each passing year. However, it seems on these new Income Forms that Uncle Sam has it all simplified down t 0 a mini mum of questions and.answers, which amount to something like this: First, How much did you make in 1955? Second, What did you do with it? Third, Do you have anything left? Fourth, If so, send it to the Director of Internal Revenue in your state'" at once. Fifthly, (and this is important) In case you didn|t have anything left after your Holiday spending spree, go ahead and borrow at least a hundred dollars and send it in anyway! •• » • And speaking of high and handsome financing and such,; here are some figures copied from a scrapbook made up of facts and fancies prior to World War 11. In fact the fol lowing has to do with World War I, which some of its veter ans resent being spoken of as a baby brother to the last one: ' “According to - the best sta tistics obtainable the World .

Humph! Tnat’s nothing. Just think of the tens of thou sands of women who are just as busy laying the law down. *• • * And this story must have ! emerged from one of the Holi day Cheer parties: """After examining the patient, the doctor inquired, “How in the world did you happen to drink that poison?
