Closer Bankers'
Union Urged lo
Prevent Losses
Members of State Association
Meet Here to Discing Mean!
Of Negotiating Assets of
Defunct Institutions.
Closer union between the Hate
batiks of Nebraska, in order to pre
vent losses was the object of a meet
iiitf of the Nebraska State' Bankers'
association in the Hotel Fonteneltc
yesterday. State banks, .under the
guarantee fund system, pay ' the
losses of any members which fail.
Very often the assets of the defunct
institutions are good, but slow. If
these could be taken over by the
slate association, some members
urged, they tould be guaranteed and
negotiated. The cash thus secured
could be returned .to the guarantee
fund, thus lightening the burden oi
tnc banks. '
An organization to be known as
the btate Agricultural Loan associa
tion is to be formed by the state
banks to undertake this task, .rifty
members, subscribed to its stock at
the meeting, and the rest of the 1.050
banks in the system are expected, in.
It will be designed. William B.
Hughes, secretary of the Nebraska
Hankers' association, explained, to
buy such good paper as is touml in
closed banks and which can not he
immediately' realized on. This" wou'd
be discounted with the war finance
corporation. F." W. "Thomas, local
chairman, assured the state bankers
of the practicability of such a move.
The new organization will prob
ably be in working order by January.
C. A. .. Randall of Randolph, presi
dent of the state bankers, appointed
the" following 'committee .to perfect
the .organization: Dan V. Stephens,
Fremont; 'A! M. Englcs, Auburn;
lflmcr' Williams, Grand Island; W.
A. 'Sellick, Lincoln; J. D. Clark, Pa
pillion; L.-H. Catron, Nebraska City,

. The pearl, the jewel oHjouth antl
parity, is the talismanic gem for to
day. . Believed to endow its ' wearer,
with charm, irrestible to the opposite
sex, the pearl was also credited by
the ancients with the power to en
dow its wearervwith such. poise and
coolness that none would dare ap
proach her. - ...... .
The Romans believed that those
born on an anniversary of this day
should wear an emerald, the. stone
sacred: to Venus, goddess of love.
Those who wore it were thought to
have unusually clear vision. ...

The Stolen Cream.
"I declare!" Farmer Green's
wife cried one day, "Somebody'!
been stealing my cream in the but
tcry.'r The buttery was a big bare room
on the shady side of the house,
where great pans of milk stood on
I
"Ah, haPsaid Spot under his'
breath "This is interestinG.
a long table. r Wheii the cream was
thick enough' on the, milk, " Mrs.
Greco skimmed it. off and put in
cans. , At one end of the buttery
there was a trap door' in the
floor. When the trap was raised
you could look right down into a
well. And-' into its cool depths
Mrs. Green dropped ..her cans of
cream by f means : of a 'iopc, which
she fastened ..to 'a beam under the
floor, so? tH'c-tops' oftji'e cans would
stay, out . bfftjhe water.'
Mrs. ' Green made, butter, out of
that cteam." . So it, was rio wonder
she was upset wh'eiV she discovered
that sdme one had mcdillcd with one
of her pans of milk.
"It can't be. the' cat," said Farmer
Green's wife.- "The buttery door
has been shu't; tight all the time."
Miss Kitty Cat was right-there in
,the kitchen while Mrs. Green was
talking to, her husband. And it was
easy to see- that .Miss Kitty, agreed
with her mistress. She came close
to Mrs. Green and purred, saying
quite plainly that she was a good,
honest cat and that she deserved to
be petted. At least; that was. what
Airs, ureen-junderstood her to mean.
Often after that, Mrs. Green dis
covered traces of the thief in the but
tery. Flecks of cream on the side
of a milk pan, drops ef cream on
the table," smudges of cream now
and then on the. floor! Such signs
meant something! But Farmer
Green's wife couldn't decide what.'
And another strange thing hap
pened. . .. Miss Kitty Cat lost her ap
petite 'for milk. She wbutd leave
her saucer of- irHlk untasted on the
kitchen floor.
Now and theri' Mrs. Green picked
Miss Kitty up and. looked closely at
her face. At. such times Miss Kitty
purred pleasantly. She did .not seem
to be the least bit disturbed. .'
One eveninjr... after dark.. Johnnie
Green vent into the buttery to get a
pail. The moment he opened the
door there was a crash and a clatter
inside the-. room. 1
Johnnie-jumped back quickly.
"There's somebody in the but
tery!" he shouted. , But. when his
father trough a-.Hgfttth found no
one there; A tin dipper lay on the
ffoor. 1 ..,--;.r.-........ ...
"When you opened the door it
must have jarred the dipper off the
edgo of the table," said Farmer
Green. . . .. ... ... .
"Meaowt"-" said a voice'-' behind
them. There stood Miss Kilty Cat,
saying that everything mus; -have
happened exactly 'as Farmer'' Green
said. .-.'..'' :.
"She couldn't have been in here.
could she?" Farmer Green puzzled.

Jack and Jill
"Oh, dear me," said Jill as Jack
came home that' night, much dis
entitled by the pouring rain, "That
old taxi-driver charged me $2.00 to
bring me home in his old sea-going:
hack." '
"Two dollars I Shades of Coat O.l
Jimmy! Did you pay all that to
ride from the depot here? We'll
land in the poorhouse, Jill!"
Jack was actually cross with her,
and she did not feel like the perfect
wife just then!
"But dear, it was pouring and I
had no umbrella."
"Couldn't you have borrowed one?
I saw it was going to rain and took
one to town with me this morning.'
"I never thought of it!"
"Then you ought to read the
weather report," and Mr. Jack was
like a patriarch advising a great
grandchild. "I always do. And I'm
always prepared for the weather."
Jill felt quite ashamed of herself,
for a little while.
Meanwhile, Jack had gone up
stairs to his bedroom. She hurriedly
fixed the dining room table, and
when he came down, wearing the
new dressing gown and slippers
whicli she had given him for his
birthday she felt more penitent and
loving than ever. - -
"It was perfectly horrid of me,
dear. I could have bought a beauti
ful scarf for you with that $21"
"Well, don't worry' over spilt $2
bills. They're unlucky.' "anyhow." '
He was almost mollified. '
"I never. saw the .streets n such
a condition. : This rain has flooded
every gutter, and a-man needs Arctic
overshoes if "he wants to keep his
feet dry. I guess it will keep on
pouring all night:"
'Jill was about to explain that it
was the miniature lakes on the 'turb
ings which had 'sent her into the
old and expensive depot hack. But
Jack interrupted, as he opened a
letter which had been delivered to
the house. r
"Bully! Mr. Car-Sbn from 'Frisco
is in town. I think I'll see him the
first thing in the morning at his
hotel, before he goes down to the
office. He's my special account, y.ou
know, and if I get a .line On what
he's after I'll have everything ready,
when he talks with the firm. He's a
great stickler for service, and all
that." ' ' ' 1
"Splendid I" exclaimed Jill, patting
his cheek. "Wasn't it nice of him
to write to you at the house and tell
you. Now, you must weac your
new brown, suit and look yer pros
perous when , you see him. v That
all has its effect."
Jack scratched his chin an instant.,
- "I'm afraid it won't be in press,''
he answered. ... ,L
: ,"Why not? Has anything hap
pened to it?" ' ':
. Jill was horrified at Jack's hope
less expression. She ran upstairs.
Then she was back in a moment
vyfth a bedraggled, wrinkled lump of
garments!
"Oh, Jack, dear! You wore this
today, when the weather-man pre-'
dieted' rain. And you left it drying
on the steam heater. Why; it's so
muddy and greasy from that oil'

near the depot. Maybe he can hnlsh

in time (or the train, by changing
there in the morning.'
Jack submitted to Jill's plan with
out a murmur.
When he returned, his umbrella
dripping no more than hit old suit,
which he had donned for the occa
sion, Jill looked at him with a funny
smile.
"Can he fix it?" she demanded, In
time for the early train?"
"Yes but I have to pay him 42
i for working extra time on it."
"Urn, huh!" mused Jill. "It
(wouldn't have spoiled our evening
so much if you nad come home from

And not rost cent more to save

.ommon Sense
By J. J. MUNDY.
The Obstacles.
Is it not a fact that when you cet
up against anything whicli is hard
really difficult you would rather
give it up than to exert yourselt suf
ficiently to master it?
Perhaps this is the reason why
you did not make any of the athletic
teams when you were in school or
college.
If you arc a golf player, do you
not cease to try after you have made
a high score on two or three holes;
do you not think there is no use for
you to pay much attention to the
game, because it will be impossible
for you to equal your low score?
You will do Svcil as long as things
seem to go your way.
But you are a failure' when con
fronted by obstacles.
You grumble and wonder why you
do not get along better.
Who could expect to succeed
when the habit of giving up at the
least opposition is Indulged?
v.A.ll men who have succeeded have
had : to do their hardest fighting
when they had apparently the least
chance, to win out.
It was this spirit which brought
them, through as winners. Lack of
this spirit may have made you a
failure.
. Perseverance. self-denial. self-
control, much study and hard work
mean success. 1
