Big Depository
1 . The deposits range from a few pennies to several dollars. The depositors are pupils at the school,
bring in funds for their parents, brothers and sisters. Each depositor must fill out an identification card, deposit and withdrawal slips and each has a Calvin Fletcher bank book.
Statement Made Weekly
After a busy half-hour, President Campbell and four vice presidents, who act as tgllers, make out the day’s statement. The vice presidents, all selected by Miss Julia Colbert, sponsor, for their mathematical ability, are Doris Walker, Mary Harding, Joan Gillespie and Eugene Hurst. On Fridays, the officials meet with a board of directors chosen from home rooms to make out the weekly statement. They have never been “short,” but they were “long” once. That was because they forgot to take into account interest that had piled up in the bank’s favor. The school bank is not only a depositing agency. It also loans money for which borrowers must pay 6 per cent interest. This income, coupled with interest received from the Fountain Square Bank, where the school bank in turn keeps its money, allows the school bank to pay a small dividend at the end of the school year.
Looks Like Bank, too
Not only is the bank real in the records it keeps, but it looks like one. That's because the class of 1928 built a “cage” that has windows for the four vice presidents. Here all the business is transacted. Not only does the Calvin Fletcher School institution encourage pupils
to save money for Christmas shopping and for bills that will come along when they go to high school, but it has taught them all the important details of banking. That's why the officers have to be sharp. If they made any mistakes, the depositors would be on their necks.

WILLIKE HEADS SOUTH TO REST
‘Urges G. 0. P. Leaders to ' Fight Adjournment While Crisis Continues.
NEW YORK, Nov. 18 (U. P).— Wendell L. Willkie began his “loyal! opposition” to the New Deal today! by urging Republican leaders to| fight an adjournment of Congress! while world crisis continues.
“It must be increasingly apparent to both Democrats and Republicans that Congress should stay in session continuously throughout this critical period,” he declared before he left for a Florida vacation last night. Mr, Willkie said he had made no plans. If the University of Vermont and Leland Stanford University are considering him for their president, as reported, he knows nothing about it, he said. He will return to New York on Nov. 29 to attend the annual dinner of the National Inter-Fraternily Conference and a meeting of the New York Financial Writers’ Association. He will return the next day to Florida to continue his vacation. A crowd at Pennsylvania Station bade the defeated Renublican candidate farewell with the campaign cry “We Want Willkie.” Mrs. Willkie commented: “I thought all this would be over.” Mr. Willkie, accompanied by his wife and his personal secretary, Grace Grahn, planned to spend several weeks at a house he has rented at Hobe Sound, 30 miles! north of Palm Beach. Consolidation of the “loyal oppo- | sition” which he espoused in a radio address last week was expected to await his return from Florida. Independent groups which supported Mr. Willkie's candidacy, including the Associated Willkie Clubs and the Democrats-for-Willkie, have |scheduled meetings for the Middle of next month.

Queen Mary Completes hi Scar
LONDON, Nov. 18 (U.P.).—Queen Mary has completed her Christmas shopping, despite Adolf Hitler's air raiders. Last week she donned one of her famous toques, picked up a favorite umbrella and handbag, and stepped ancient, high-wheeled automobile. She makes hundreds of presents annually. The 73-year-old dowager who has officially announced her non-ac-ceptance of the title, Queen mother, has become Britain's No. 1 evacuee. Before the war started, she moved to one of the royal houses in western England and there, in completely rural surroundings, she
maintains a small, unobtrusive court, the grand dame of the locality. At first she used to visit London once or twice a week, staying with one of her children. But since the intensification of the air war, her visits are less frequent. She wanted all her grandchildren to stay with her, but the King and Queen wanted. Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose to stay at home. But she does have the two babies of the Duke and Duchess of Kent to brighten her home. . War is a familiar thing to her, Many British soldiers remember the 16-hour days she put in 25 years
ls
ago. Now, she daily visits army hospitals, canteens and air raid precaution centers, and her tall,
‘regal figure is a familiar sight to who have been
Cockney childrén evacuated to her district. She is without a doubt Britain's healthiest septuagenarian., Save for occasional colds, she has never been sick, and when anyone near her sniffs, she orders them off to bed. In her rambling old country house there is an air raid shelter but it is understood she has never used it yet. She also is never seen carrying a gas mask, but it is believed one of her ladies in waiting always carries one for her.
