Boy Scouts Milestones And Education Notes From The Era
Fifteen years since the Boy Scout movement began in the United States now includes about 600000 members with nearly 500000 boys and many adult leaders. The article extols scouting’s practical lessons, outdoor life, and citizen-building value while noting wartime service and a past leadership shortage. It also covers Teachers College of Columbia University tests on cross word puzzles in schools, potential warnings about reduced puzzle use, and a discussion of public school policy. It then reports on the mixed progress of the Child Labor Amendment across states, with counts of ratifications and rejections, and concludes with the 1924 Maryland public school property values breakdown by race and city.

Your Income Tax Form Use For 1924 Returns
The instruction notes that taxpayers must use Form 1040 for the year 1924 regardless of net income, while a smaller form is used for income of 5000 dollars or less chiefly from salaries. Forms have been sent to last year’s filers, but failure to receive a form does not relieve the obligation to file and pay the tax.
Tax payment options due by March fifteenth 1925
The text states that copies of forms may be obtained from collectors of internal revenue and branch offices. The tax may be paid in full at filing or in four equal installments due on March 15, September 15, and December 15.
