I Fage 2 A RIDDLE IN RHYMES by Rev. T. M. Walker WHAT AM I? I’m useless if covered, but valuable in the open Whether I’m standing, hanging, or lying flat. Long ago I was discovered before English was spoken, As grunting beholders before me sat. Clear still waters can do much of what I do. But waters can’t be hanged up high. Sitters and squatters seeking to know what’s true Confront me with quite a cautious eye. WHAT AM I? Men use me less, but they can’t do without me No more so than women of vanity. Seemingly I bless any person who can see To determine if they are sloppy or fancy. My shining face, whether round, oblong or square; Faces all to never reveal a lie. I reveal every trace of what’s ugly or quite rare Whether it stays before me or passes by. WHAT AM I? I am no door, no pool of water nor a room; Yet users like to look into me. The rich, the poor, whether in scarcity or boom Will own and use me while they can see. Whatever is before me I give it back in likeness. Be it earth objects, clouds or the sky. When I am stored where there is no ray of brightness. No one can see what I reflect if they try. WHAT AM I? (The answer to last week’s riddle is SHOT GUN) (The answer to this riddle will be answered in the next issue of THE TRIBUNAL AID.

Is it the complete quietude that overtakes this place at night that makes me feel so alone and lonely. Why alone and lonely? Sure there’s a distinct difference between the two. I’m along because there’s nobody here but me. I’m lonely because there’s no one to talk to, no one to keep a flow of lively conversation going. On the other hand. I could be in a room with wall-to wp.ll people; I wouldn’t be alone anymore but I’d still be lonely. Business And Professional Chain & State OMBE To Sponsor Seminar CROSSWORD ACROSS 2. Hardened 1.

If you had more than one casualty or theft loss during the year, you should first complete Part II, Form 4684, Casualties and Thefts. Q. I just read about a new law which allows individuals who are not self-employed to set up their own retirement savings program. How does this work? A. Under the Pension Reform Act of 1974, eligible individuals may establish their own retire ment savings program by making contributions each year equal to either 15 percent of compensation or $1500 per year, whichever is less. Such contributions are gen erally tax deductible and create a fund from which the individual can draw income during retirement. To be eligible for the individual retirement savings program, an individual must not contribute during any part of the tax year to: an employer's qualified pension, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 26,1975 profit-sharing, stock bonus, annu ity or bond-purchase plan; a gov ernment retirement plan; an an nuity contract purchased by cer tain tax exempt organizations or public schools; or a plan for self- employed workers. For further information on how to set up an individual retirement savings program, read Tax In formation on Individual Retire ment Savings Programs, IRS Publication 590, free from your nearest IRS office. Q. I bought a new home last month, but did not qualify for the five percent housing credit be cause the seller could not certify that the sale price of the home was the lowest ever offered. Is It true that this requirement for the hous ing credit has been changed? A. Yes. A new law may qualify you for the credit if the seller can certify that your new principal residence was purchased at the lowest price offered after Febru ary 28, 1975. Because this change is retroactive, you may still qualify even though you, have already bought the home. You should con tact the seller of your home who must certify in writing: 1) that the sale price was the lowest price of fered after February 28, 1975: and 2) that construction of the home was begun before March 26, 1975. If you have additional questions about the credit, contact Taxpayer Assistance at your nearest IRS office. Account^ Inured To $20,000 By FSLIC DON’T DELAY SAVE TODAY'.!
