The directors and stockholders are j. Il. With
ington, Il. Woodruff, X. Sadler, F. W. Chute,

The business standing and reputation OF the gen.
tlemen named above, liz certainly a sure guaran-
tee of their fitness for the position held by them,
and an assurance of the reliability of the con-
Germ. Our people are not slow 10 perceive the
advantages to result from a safe place of deposit
for surplus funds. or a means of changing coin
into checks. The good results to flow from this
new enterprise will be two-fold, accruing to the
advantages of both the bankers and depositors.
We were satisfied the desideratum occasioned by
the closing up Of the Bank Of California would
soon be realized. and now we are satisfied that
all will be well pleased with the change.

A VISIT To OUR ScHooL.-At the request Of
School superintendent Herrick, we visited the
school of this district, under the charge of Miss
Elliott, the past week. The performance of the
children, young and old, is crcditable in the ex-
treme, both as to department and advancement
in their studies. The lady teacher seems to ex-
fFplsf the most perfect enuIrui DNfr her puNfla
by adopting a method different from one we re-
nIember 80 we'll, that Of kindness and courtesy
toward uliruly children. We were much pleased
with the general conduct of affairs, bnt wondered
ut the small attendance. Parents having chill
dren will do well to read the - Compulsory Edu-
ration" law. as published in the NEWS Of last
week, and send their children to school at once,
without being forced to do 80.
