Miss Booth's Retirement

The retirement of Miss Evangeline Booth as head of the Salvation Army in America brings

genuine regret to persons who have watched the work which she performed in religious and so

ciological circles. Not the least loss will be the soldiers who saw where the matchless organization

fected contributed to their comfort in a most

commendable manner. The reason for her retirement communicated to this country

where the headquarters of the Army are main

tained, but it is assumed that the

has a good reason for calling her back to her native land. ' The work of the Salvation Army in this country has been directed by Miss Booth for many

years, and its signal success in alleviating human. Army will sustain.

This plaque is in the office in Government House, Dublin, that was occupied by Michael Collins and bears the paragraph which might be called the creed of strenuous life. "I wish to preach not the doctrine of ignoble ease but the doctrine of the strenuous life, of toil and of effort, and of labor, and strive to preach the highest form of success that comes not to the man who desires more ease and peace but to him who does not shrink from danger, hardship, and bilter toil and who, out of these, wins the splendid and ultimate triumph," Q.

The Department of Agriculture says that such milk has been forced through a sieve fine enough to break up the fat globules. Atter Umner otones A physician was walking up Broad way when he saw a dentist friend looking at some shirts in a show window. Just then a panhandler stepped uu to the dentist and began to unravel a hard luck story. To the physician's astonishment the dentist lifted his hand to his ear and said, raising his voice considerably: "How's that? You'll have, to spealc louder. I'm hard of hearing." The panhandler huriied away, grumbling i to himself. The physician walked up and laid his hand on the dentist's shoulder. "Jim," he said, "you 6eem to have ear trouble."

Make me thoughtful of others during- every hour. Allow no word or act of mine to mar the beauty or happiness of a single life.

Who's Who in the Day's News The prominent part played by Mrs. Fritz Ebert. wife or Germany's presi dent, in the political and public life of that country indicates how revolution ary the change in conditions there has been since the overthrow of the Hohenzollerns. The late ex-kaiser in took no part in the affair of state and this was true of the wives of the other high officials under the m o n a r chistic regime. Mrs. Ebert, an earnest worker in the Socialist ranks het'nre her husband AJiF8r called to head the government, continues to urge greater public Interest in public affairs and is appealing now to the women of the workers to show more interest. "While there are 10 women in the reichstag and women are numbered among those prominent in labor movements the wives and daughters of the average citizens do not play the role in public that American women play," she said recently. Mrs. Ebert has not neglected her home life, however. The president and his wife have two sons. One is a reporter on the Socialist paper "Vorwaerts" and the other is a student of technology. Their daughter is a li brarian in the Berlin public library. She has changed the imperial palace, cold and forbidding while Wilhelm's family use it, to a comfortable home. She and her husband live as simply as they were accustomed to when he was working at his trade as a harness maker while the Socialists were build ing up their present strength. Rippling Rhymes By Walt Mason THE SHERIFF No smiles are now adorning my once effulgent phiz; the sheriff came this morning and took away my Liz; he took the choo-cnoo wagon that I have steered so long! I drink from sorrows' flagon a bitter draught and strong. For years I have cavorted along the Great White Way, while creditors exhorted and begged me for their pay. The butcher ad the baker were always on my trail, the sordid undertaker insist ed on some kale. In winter and in summer, across the vales and hills, the coal man and the plumber were chasing me with bills. And oftentimes my pastor would read the riot act; "You're headed for disaster, 'he said, with splendid tact; "you blow your coin for rubber, for tires and gasoline, for patent jack or snubber, and this is base and mean; for all the time you're owing to every merchant's till, and everywhere you're going you're up against a bill. The man," observed the pastor, "who joyrides while in debt, has got a nerve that's vaster than has been charted yet." Ah, sad, in my condition, since I am doomed to walk; the sulleneyed mortician can chase me round a block. The butcher and the grocer, since I have lost my dray, are ever drawing closer I cannot get away! HELPED HIS BACK Bachache, rheumatic pains, dizziness and blurred vision are symptoms of kidney trouble. "My husband had a bad back." writes Mrs. M. McCulloug-h, Easton, Pa. "When he sat down he could hardly pet up and then he. would be drawn over to one side. He tried Folev Kldiney Pills and they cured him." Foley Kidney Pills quickly relieve kidnev and bladder trouble.

Branches for National Banks Small Banks Oppose Proposal in Congress, Fearing Possibility of Creating Money Trust.

By FREDERICK J. HASKIX WASHINGTON, D. C, Sept. 19. The fight for the establishment of branches of national banks has been renewed in congress by the introduc tlon by Representative McFaddin, chairman of the house committee on banking and currency, of a bill permitting such banking expansion. It is a matter of popular interest for two reasons. First, it represents a curious contest between local institutionnal pride and the protection of local pro fits, and second, it represents a strugble by small bankers against big bank ers. The principal argument in favor of branches for national bank3 is ef ficiency and 6ervlce. The principal argument against such branches is preservation of local enterprise and immunity from the possiblity of a money trust WTiat the national banks ask is th' legal right to establish branches In any places. Thus, the National City Bank of New York might wish to es tablish a branch In every city in the United States and in many small towns. Under existing law it cannot do so, but if it could, it would get the deposits and the business of many more customers than now It can command. Therefore its profits would in crease. Many other large national banks great financial institutions known from end of the country to the other migth desire to expand in the same way. In all probability they would, if permitted by law to do eo, They claim that for the law to per mit them to establish such branches so that the milk man in Omaha could deal with a great banking institution as readily as John Rockefeller or any other New Yorker can, would be a move in the direction of efficiency. Under existing law, a national bank may lend only a limited proportion ot its funds to one borrower. A man may have a big business in a small town. His borrowing requirements are large His local banker may not be big enough to accommodate him. Therefore, he must do business with a bigger bank in a distant city. Increased Loan Facilities. With a local branch of the big bank in his email town, he could borrow just as much as though he lived and did business in New York, because the business of the branch would be on the same basis as business: with the home office. The loan would be limited, not to the capital of the branch Lbut only to the capital of the whole vast system of parent and branch banks. It is a fact that in many parts of the United States big business eencl their deposits by mesenger long distances to other cities to find banks big enough for them to deal with. A bank desires to lend only to those who deposit with It; therefore, the big business in the small city, does not deposit at home but in the place where DYE ANY GARMENT OR DRAPERY WITH "DIAMOND DYES" Buy "Diamond Dyes" and follow the simple directions in every package.

there is a bank big enough to handle its loans. The national banks 6ay that there would be a great saving in a branch bank system because of a diminished overhead expense. There are 30,000 banks of all sizes in the United States, each with a president, subordinate officers and boards of directors. This means that each of the 30,000 banks has an overhead which must be paid for by the public, as all profits of any business must, in the final analysis, spring from the public Now, if there were but 1,000 big banks, there would be but 1,000 sets of presidents, officers and directors and much of the ovei head would be saved. There would be perhaps 29,000 branches so the country would be served with same number of banking houses, but these branches merely would have managers and tellers with no expensive overhead. On the other side of the question, the small banks say that it is contrary to every tenet of Americanism to permit any great group to crush out small competitors, wholly aside from the question of economic wastage ot duplicated overhead expenses. They insist that If the national banks are permitted to establish branches, the email, independent banks . will be crushed out of business, just as it has frequently been alleged, small businesses in other lines have been crushed out of existence by great trusts. Small Banks Fear Banking Trust The email banks say that the bis banks would come to towns where lo cal, thriving banks were situated and open branches. The superior influence of the branch of the great parent would ultimtealy drive the little, local banks out of business. This proces3 would result in the great banks gradually getting control of the whole banking business of the country, creating a money trust which would control credit A situation would be created whereby a small group of bankers could decide whether r not credit should be extended to business in any part of the country. The business destinies of millions would be in the hands of a few powerful financial giants at the head of the great banks. This, to be sure, is the sort of picture which is extremely repugnant to the American mind and it is this picture which has prevented the establishment of branch banks. The controversy is an old one. It has recurred in years-past Now that Mr. McFadden's bill brings it up again, it is to be expected that the whole ground will be fought over again and it is not at all unlikely that the issue will be the same as it has been in the Combing Won't Rid Hair Of Dandruff The only sure way to get rid of dandruff to dissolve it, then you destroy it entirely. To do this, get about four ounces of ordinary liquid arvon: arjnlv jit at night when retiring; use enough to moisten tne scalp and rub it in gently with the finger tips. to this tonight, and by morning most li not an, or your dandruff will be gone and three or four "more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp .will stop at once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus trous, glossy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work. Advertisement.

AMXiETY AnD past; the little banks will beat the big banks and. the branches will not be authorized. There Is one existing' method by which, -under the law, a national bank may acquire branches. State chartered banks may have branches within the states in which they are located. A national bank may buy outright a trust company or state chartered bank which has branches. It may continue to operate these branches which thus become, in fact, no longer branches of the old trust conipany or state bank, but branches of the national bank which has acquired the whole institu tion. In this manner the Chatham and Phoenix National Bank of New Yorki purchased outright the entire property of the Century Trust company. The latter, operating as a trust company, had a dozen branches. When taken over by the big national bank, the branches had to come along Into the bargain. But no national bank can set out independently and establish branches directly. Savings banks are state chartered institutions. These may have branches and may be purchased in the same manner. A recent example is the purchase by Riggs National Bank of Washington of the Hamilton Savings bank, an institution which had branches scattered about the District of Col umbia, These now are branches of the Riggs National bank. In Europe, branch banks are he rule, rather than the exception. Vast insti tutions like Barclay's Bank, Parr's Bank, or the London Joint City and Midland Bank, all In England; the Credit Lyonnaise in France: the Deutsche Bank in Germany and others in other countries have literally hundreds of branches, not-only in their own countries but in other countries. American banks of either national or state charter may, under certain re strictions, have branches abroad. Not many do so, but there are some examples. The most notable is that of the National Bank of New York which has branches in all parts of the world. The branch bank struggle is likely to be removed every few years, but it does not seem probable that the great banks will be permitted to extend as the foreign banks have done. It is. however, considered possible as the the foreign banks have done. It is, how ever, considered possible that a na tional bank will be permitted, under certain restrictions, to establish branches within its own city. Women Praise It For four years Mrs. D. H.
