forth a son, and thou shaft call his

pie from their sins. ’
Dr. Matlhc,r> s brought out the fact
that while Jesus had all knowledge,
and cou d Iia e taught the people all
the facts of science, and yet he only
touched the people at one point, and
that was the matter of their sins and
how 'o get rid of them.
Jesus came to deal with your sin
and my sin. He came to settle the
greatest question ever asked by man,
‘A. hat about my sins and how shall
I get rid of them?”
1 e came to settle the question of
s’ns and of s n He came to deal
with our acts of sin, and with the na-
ture of sin which is in us. He care
to save first, from the gui’t of sin;
second, from the love of sin; third,
from the power of sin; fourth, from
the polbition of sin.
As Dr. Matthews told of the s’m-
pb’city of the plan of alvation, and
gave the conditions under which neo-
p'e ma^- be converted or sanc^if’e-l.
Many a discouraged soul was led c’os-
er to God. and several knelt at the al-
tar and received the answer to their
prayers.

The following information is issued
by Collector of Internal Revenue, A.
C. Alexander, district of Oklahoma.
The revenue act of 1921 contains
two new and important provisions,
which are the subj’ect of frequent in-
quiry. The first relates to the per-
Board and faculty are compelled to re -1 sonal exemptions allowed married pei
sort to all s^rts of make-shifts to sons, and the .second to the provisions
handle the pupils, and the best order requiring that a return be made of
and discipline and the best instruction : gross income of $5000 or more.
is absolutely impossible under present • The act provides that a married per-
son, living with husband or wife,
whose net income for 1921 was $5,000
oi less shall be allowed a personal ex-
emption of $2,500. If the net in-
come of such penon was over $5,000
the exemption is $2,000. Under thc
Revenue Act of 1918, the personal ex-
emption allowed a married person wa ■
$2,000, regardlesss of the amount of
net income. The normal tax rate re-
mains unchanged, 4 per cent on thc
first $4,000 of net income above the
exemption ami 8 per cent on the re-
maining income.
In order that an income slightly in
excess ot $5,000 shall not be subjected
to an inordinately disproportionate tax
because of the reduction of the ex-
emption to $2,000 thereon, the law pro
vides that such reduction shall not op-
erate to increase the tax, which would
ba payable if tfhe exemption were
$2,500, by more than the amount of
the net income is excess of $5,000.
For example, on a net income of
$5,010, the tax, without ti.is saving
clause would be $120.40, which ia 4 per
cent on $3,010, the amount of net in-
come less an exemption of. $2,000. The
actual tax is $110.40, computed as

$5,010 is deducted $2,500, leaving
