I THE PART PLAYED BY BANKS
B Banks in all communities represent their most val-
calljc asset in commercial activities. Without prop
erty, conducted Nmlts, no community or sddtion'cttd’
hope'te expand and grow into the importance they,
justly Reserve. It Is the banks that provide the mo-
■“’vq'power in industrial and commercial enterprises
;t enables them to develop their sections and pro-
e a field for labor and- an agency for supporting
linos of business.
toy A., Young,'Governor of the Reserve Board.'
addressing the convention of the American Banker’s
association, of .Philadelphia, said: •
•“Banks can riot create natural resources nor can
they be a substitute for human labor, but they can
work toward a more efficient use of resources and a
more effective application of labor and thereby con
tribute to a smoother and more even working of the
mechanism to proven overheated parts and possible
explosion*.”
There is much sound thought in Mr. Young’s re
marks. Banks cannot function and serve the com
munities without the support of the citizenship. In
stead of hoarding money and hiding it out here and
there round the homo, people should deposit it in the
banks and aid In that way to relieve congested condi
tions in financial and' commercial circles.
Banks are dependent upon the money of the indi
viduals ns much as the merchant is dependent upon
the trade of the citizens in'his territory. After all,
to have a growing and prosperous section' co-opera
tion must bo practiced among, all lines of commerce,

November the cleveriQrwill mark the tenth anni
versary of the signing ofrthe Armistice.. Appropriate
exercises will be held in practically every town and
City in the United States. It is an occasion that calls
for more than ordinary interest; the fatalities as well
us the casualties occurring in the World war are fresh
in the minds of the people of this nation. They have
not forgotten the sacrtfices made by our people and
by our country, nor will they forget the signing of the
Armistice which brought rejoining to every homo in
this broad land. It was a day of celebration that will
never be forgotten and it .is a day that should be. kept
green in the memory of the .people of the United
States. During the Injurs of celebration, on that day,
egery line of business should be suspended and the
: time given over to observances fit and appropriate
for tlu: occasion.
Athens and her people nre as much interested in
the anniversary as is any other people or section of
the country. In Athens, let us set asido the day and
make of it one of historic interest, and a celebration
that will live long in the memory of our citizens.
PROBING THE WILDS j
A party of scteiitiata wilFhead up the Amazon iver
Bhortly in an ciTi.r; to find a lost city of I’hooii'.-ian
origin on the banks of the,.unexplored Aripuana fiver,
in central Brazil.'’ " s
The city, described by Indiars, js said to have been
univisited by white men. Relics brought out by Ind
ia- tens indicate that;the city may have bten founded
by the ancient Phoenicians; the long and dangerous
trip of - exploration and discovery will begin this win-
' ter. .
The mere possibility of a, Bhoehlcian cttjk Jn tho
Amazon country is!sufficiently interesting; but even
more important is the fact that the Brazilian country
la still no rich a field for the explorer. With both
Poles discovered, and with a railway line traversing
central Africa, it had seemed that all tho unknown
places had been reached. But Brazil alii can chal-
Jej lengc the adventurer. There are still plenty of un-
■ plumbed fastnesses in the tropical jungles surround
ing the Amazon.
: THE OPEN FIREPLACE MENACE
The. season for fires to warm the homes is now upon
uS and in every home where the open fireplace is used
there should be some protection from the fires for
the children. Every fall and winter, hundreds of
H|i in this and other states meet with horrible
deaths* from burning. It is true the open fireplaco
Hu been in use since time immemorial, but that docs
not relieve the danger lurking in these old fashioned .
fireplace.-. should be put around every fire
place 'and i ■■ ids should caution their children to
practice care in those hemes where the screens are
not used. The habit of leaving young children at
home alone is one that should be discontinued; especi
ally the practice of locking them up in the house.
Hundreds of lives of. children have been lost in such
the open fireplace and caution your
stand too near the fire. A little dress

One of tho best definitions
of cotton we heve reed In ■
long time eppeered In a re
cent issue of Commerce and
Finance, published In New

editor of that periodical sleet
up the cotton commodity:
“Cotton la the overcoat ol a eecd

The fibre jftartos In color ond

the public, a fool by tbo farmer
and a poor business man by his

“The price of cotton is deter
mined in New York, and goes up
when you havo sold and down
when, you havo bought. A buyer
working for a group of mill* was
sent to New York to watch the

persons during the last few weeks
to address some remarks to the

I have hesitated to comply with
these requests, fearing that I
might apear presumptuous, • but I
feel so deeply on the question that
I have been constrained at the
last moment to make this effort to
present to the women of our com
munity certain views on this sit

helpful in shaping their conduct
on this most important occasion
Please do not for a moment

right to advise you, but

“trailers." Trailing has eccorne u

Tho Republican National com

tho same platform and wipes ont

li, is my purpose to discuss
briefly this one great question
with you. It is practically Impos
sible "for me to conceive that the
great Democratic parly, composed
largely of Southern men and wo
men of the very highest type, could
so far disgrace itself, as to nomi
nate for this high office, a man
personally unfit to fill it. But
grant that such a situation were
possible, I maintain that in this
instance such a m«v has not been
nominated, but on the *onU^.r^ji
man of transcendent’ ability, one*
of the great men of the nation, a
man of high Christian character
has” been glVetf the great privilege
of leading the grand old party of
the South to what I trust shall be catholics today,
a Democratic victory. 1 ~
justify a departure from the party
of the South by saying that Gov-
ernor Smith is opposed to the
present prohibition law and is a
member of that great' church
known as the Catholic Church.
It is probably a true statement
to suy that practically all right
thinking peopio aro opposed to tho
old reglmo of the open saloon
with its temptations and ttg vic-
inusness. It is probably also true
to say that all right thinking peo
ple wish to find some solution ot
tho liquor question. Such a solu
tion has not beep found In the
present prohibition law* Governor
Hmi.h has Mated repeatedly In ro-
Ccnt weeks. In tho most positive
language, that “The open saloon
