the kindly gent Ionian who carrasod
the tkunk, under the imprePHion that
It was a "pretty kilty," we have
learned a lewon. From now on,
whenever there is a kind act to bo
done to an animal, we shall seek out
the nearest Boy Scout and give him
a chance to make a day's record. We
understand that the Boy Scouts
strive to do one noble act a day and
far be it from us to deprive them of
a single opportunity.
1 tlve "meaouws" we started for the
back room. We never got there. That
unregenerate kitten screeched once,
spit once or twice, and proceeded fo
throw a fit right next to the only
clean shirt we had on. Our newest
wash necktie was seized in dirty
claws, and y the time we pried him
loose there wns enough ink on us
to print an edition of the lining
ford Ledger.
From now on, waen pretty little
appear beneath our feet we
shall treat them politely and with the
utmost courtesy. We shall extend to
them the privilege of the ofllco and
permit them to piny on the bundles
of print paper. But we shall not
caress them without due examination
of their feet. And if tals sort of f.
thing ever happens again, we shah
cancel our membership in the S. P. C
A. and begin to root for the cruel
animal trainers. This is fair warning.
The other morning, when we un
covered lao typewriter, preparing for
the day's work, we heard a plaintive
mewing. It was a snow white kitten
that is, It had been. It was a dirty
draggled, skinny, forlorn little thing
but, as we said before, we like kit
tens. Half an hour later we discov
ered a twin, this one coal black. The
two of them chased each . other
around the shop a nd scrapped
fiercely with the barber's dog.
A prints aop is a poor place to play,
however. Have you ever made the
acquaintance of printers' Ink? The
white kitten did that very thing. It
-wandered over to the big press, and
within half a tnrnute was In trouble.
The kitten had fallen into the Ink
fountain. . Cats, you will recall from
.childhood experiments, always light
on their feet. Time and again you
have tried tals out, and know It to
be true. This kitten was knee deep
In the blackest ink. Somebody rush
ed to the rescue, and the unfortun
ate pussy made tracks (black tracks)
for safer quarters.
, He wandered up to the front room
and the lady bookkeeper espied him.
"Oh, see the nice kitten," she gurgl
i ed, and reached over to pick it up.
She was warned just in time. Pussy
squatted on the floor and started

Your Harvest Money
You can make your Harvest Money earn another Harvest this year by
depositing it with this Bank where it will draw interest. Then if an oppor
tunity arises whereby you can make a good investment you'have tlw money
to grasp it. t
THE COMMUNITY NEEDS SAVERS
With, the coming of the harvest and the increase of ready money in circu
lation business is certain to increase. For the good H)f the community every
one should exercise judgment in the disposition of his money. The safest
plan is to deposit it in a strong conservative bank, let it accumulate interest
money for you while you decide the wisest disposition of it.
The prosperity of progressiveness; of any community is measured by tho
total of its bank deposits. The American system of finance incorporates the
idea of "placing your ready money in a bank" as a fundamental principle.
It should be taught to the little folks, and followed by their parents.
THERE IS NO SAFER AND BETTER PLAN THAN
TO DEVELOP THIS AMERICAN IDEA OF BANKING
