Many taxpayers are electing to make payments by mail to overcome transporatioon difficulties and the lack of time for a personal visit. Receipts will be mailed to all making payments in this manner. Still others have high school students pay the taxes. Early payment of these taxes saves five per cent penalty as well as periods of waiting during the last days of the penalty free period.

All per captia taxes prior to 1945 must be paid to J. W. O. Pahel, delinquent taax collector, at North Scottdale. Penalties on these increase one-half per cent per month until final payment is made.

All property taxes, owed pries to 1945, have been returned to Greensburg, and settlement must be made for them at the tax office in the courthouse at Greensburg.
