of the inhiajbitants, alii children were,

•and -stay late.   And the fun tihey had
will be a pleasant memory for the

: national Live Stock Exposlition will

In reference to the coming session of
this world famous institution, Robe t
J. Evans, the well-knawnt So.r^tar.v
ot the American Duroa Jersey -Association', has issued the fallowing public statement:
"A visit to the Internatronal is an
education in live stock development
that cannot be  gained by   a visit to
any other fadr or exposition.   Breeders who   -are situated so    they oah
- bring their sons up to tliis show or
I their*    daughters,    either,  will    give
' thorn an opportunity to absorb a great
. incentive for producing    better  live
. stock,, and they will get- a more ample   idea of   the Immensity   of the
puret-bred live    stotik bu?iness   than
they can get in any other waiy in the
same length of time."
SECOND NUMBER LECTURE
COURSE TUESDAY, NOV. 13
Several years ago Elwood O. Rogers spenf some time in the south, superintending, the - sawing off timber,
and while there found iai -tract of 150
acres of land in Alabama,, which he
thought,, at the pricevJie could, pay
for and later on profit by ths deal.
A few days since Mr. Rogers received his deed of the property iand he has
every reason to believe his venture a
wise one. On this property there is
considerable fine timber, .and at the
price of lumbei* today the timber
alone is worth severail times the cost
of the property.
Still more, this property lies surrounded by the proven oil fields of
that state and doubtless his holding
is valuable in oil.
Little -do mia-ny of us -know when we
enter into a speculation, "what will
the hai*ve£*t be."

Sometimes the small town boy-'tvho
leaves his niajtive village to go forth
and conquer tlhe world, succeeds. Af,-.
ter ia fjew years of adversity and hard
knocks, he "busts" the market or mair-
ries. the boss's daughter, or invenlts
something profitable. Then he drives
into the old home town looking wealthy and wisei, while ttaa inhatoitamts
pait him on tlie back and say, "Khow
you had the stuff in you to do it, Boy."
Or II he has not been successful, he
barrows enough to get himself a regal
outfit in which to make his reiturn*,
for only an "ex*sm,all townler" knows
the humility and shame of going
home broke.
George Ade in his_ new Paramount1
picture for" Thomas Meighan, "Back
Home apd Broke," -which comes to the
Liberty thejatre* Saturday and Sunday,
"sees the side he would naturally sea
of such ,a story, and has his hero return home apparently brokei. But
there is a reason for this, as the picture, which lis full of spairkling'humor
and deft characterizaticirjs, proves.

The Commissioner of Banking has
given all State banks strict instructions to observe thej law relaitive to
the -permitticig ot overdrafts; and has
instructed his staff ajf Bank Examiners to criticise severely whenever they
find the same being practiced, The
substance of which is that Banks a:e
not, according to law, allowed to pay
checks when tihe customer's account
does not contain sufficient funds to
pay them.
We hope to receive the hearty cooperation of our   customers to  such
an extent that our Banks will not be
subject to such criticisms.
