Is again with tis
and the regulations
are even more se-
vere than they were
last year
In The Post each
day will be run a
synopsis of a num-
ber of rulings
which have been
made by the inter-
nal revenue depart-
ment They are of
real importance to
those affected by
thetax-andavery
considerable num-
ber of people are so
affected.
The Post in this con-
nection desires to di-
rect attention to the
fact that it tS THE
ONLY PAPER IN
TEXAS which has
sought to keep the pub-
lic informed upon such
matters of real impor-
tance to them as the
income tax and the war
tax. Other papers waste
their space upon vari-
ous matters which are
of small value either in
instruction or entertain-
ment. The Post seeks
to keep its readers in-
formed upon matters of
real import to them.
While The Post has
features which are en-
tertaining and instruc-
tive it also devotes
much of its space to the
serious matters which
affect the citizens of
Texas and from which
they will reap not only
benefit but which will
keep them posted upon
matters of real impor-
tance. The Post is worth
many times the price of
a subscription and few
of its readers do not
benefit to a much great-
er extent than the price
of the paper.
Cheap papers are dear
at any price; a "worth
while" paper ia cheap at
any price The Post
subscription price is
cheap when merit is
considered.
If you are a casual
reader of The Post join
its happy family of reg-
ular subscribers today.'
Post readers are the
well informed people of
South Texas.
