POLSON  - A person who works eight hours a day for five days a week works 2,080 hours a year. One half of that is 1,040 hours. The standard tax form is called the Form 1040, which is, so ironically, one half of 2080. The subliminal suggestion is that half of your wages go towards taxes. Ben Franklin is quoted as saying: “There are only two things we can be assured of in our lifetime: Death and taxes”.

Free AARP tax preparation assistance is available on Mondays and Thursdays. Call us to make an appointment. 

The toe-nail clinic held by a certified nurse will take place on Friday, April 25, and costs $30. There is limited enrollment so sign up ahead of time.

We need driver(s) for a short delivery route, which requires one hour each weekday or single or multiple days starting April 16. Dependability is a must. For more information call 406-883-4735.
