Responsibilities should have been assumed, and, if necessary, supplies should have been thrown into the army broadcast, without thought of requisition or receipts. Under the direction of the efficient and gentlemanly surgeon of volunteers, Dr.
In good seasons the receipts sufficed to keep her and her boy and girl comfortably; in bad seasons they had to live very closely, and she was obliged in specially bad times to dip a little into her reserve of a hundred pounds. Upon the other hand, there was occasionally a windfall when the smack rendered assistance to a vessel on the sands, or helped to get up anchors or discharge cargoes.
During the 4th quarter of the year it is estimated that the receipts will at least equal the expenditures, and that there will remain in the Treasury on the first day of January next a surplus of nearly $9 millions. On January 1st, 1825, a large amount of the war debt and a part of the Revolutionary debt become redeemable.
Hannah grew irritated and anxious. The receipts from this source were the largest they could reckon upon in the year.
But she would not longer accept from the Brashears what she regarded as charity. "You more than pay your share, what with the work you do," protested Mrs. Brashear. "I'll not refuse the extra dollar because I've simply got to take it. But I don't want to pertend." The restaurant receipts began to fall with the increasing hardness of the times among the working people.
These 39 magazines were found to receive $18,000,000 a year from their advertisements and $15,000,000 from their sales and subscriptions. This shows that in monthly magazines the receipts from advertising and subscriptions are about the same.

But the receipts so far collected, it must be remembered, do not reflect any of the tax reductions made by the Revenue Act of 1945.
