I would like your straight- from-the-shoulder answers to whether my donations to charity can be considered legitimate income tax deductions. I do a lot of running around for charitable causes in this town and give money too; as much as I can afford, being a widow.

This year, I may even give property to my favorite charity. Also, do small gifts count? MRS. FORMER FARMER DEAR MRS. FORMER FARMER: When the crisp winds of autumn whiff across the land and a newspaper story proclaims "Snow in dunning notes from charities drift into America's homes. It is estimated by Harold J.

Seymour, author of the new book, "Designs for Fund Raising: Principles, Patterns and Techniques," that close to $11 billion are given annually to various causes. Today the basic technique is to get more people with money to part with it for worthy causes. As a banker told me, "Did you ever try to get money out of someone who doesn't have it?" Yes and, at my age, I would seriously prefer taking up soccer. Seymour claims, "In any major campaign, a third of the money comes from the top ten gifts, the next third from the next 100 gifts, and the last third from everybody else." You may be in the low 33 1-3 per cent, Mrs. Former Farmer, but you're still tops with any charitable group.

Contributions to charity are deductible by taxpayers who care to itemize personal deductions on good old form 1040. A spokesman for the Internal Revenue service tells me, "Deductions may be claimed for contributions for money, property and out-of-pocket expenses in servicing, charitable organizations." This includes transportation expenses (if you worked for a charity). Just to be sure of your financial ground, follow the advice of Me- Call's "Book of Fund Raising Ideas." In speaking to the other side of the fence it stated, "In all cases, before you advertise 'Contributions may be deducted from your income obtain a ruling from the district director of Internal Revenue." I suggest, Mrs. Former Farmer, in making any sizable contribution, you check with him or your favorite income tax adviser. Who knows? With confirmation, you may want to give away the "old east 40" now located in the center of town.

CY DEAR CY: Our senior vice president says, "Don't be yes-men! Stand up and be counted upon to give your honest opinions." Why should I make a lot of noise when I do agree with management? EXEC DEAR EXEC: Nobody agrees with management all the time in his heart. You sound like the voter who consistently says, "I'll vote for the best man," but never thinks she is running. WOMEN: For your of the new booklet, CY free copy "A Woman's Guide to Mutual Funds," write Cy Barrett, care of this newspaper, enclosing a self-addressed and stamped envelope. H. Grant, pastor of First Methodist Church, Wood River, officiating.

Burial will be in Rose Lawn Memory Gardens. Visitation at the Mortuary will be after 4 p.m. today. Mr. Bowles, who died Sunday in Pike County Hospital, Louisiana, had been ill for six months and in the hospital two days.

He had lived at Nebo for eight years and before that at Rockbridge nine years. He was born May 2, 1905, at Worden, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Louis Bowles. His widow, the former Bessie Williams whom he married in 1929 at Wood River, survives.
