end gentleman was aghast but eXamina-
ton showed his signature was genuine, so
he passed over the money with sigh. and
Mr.. Williams left the room. A silence pre-
vailed for few moments, and then Cyan
ide WHITES desired to know the total value
of the chips issued by the bank. Rev.
Thankful Smith stated they amounted in
all to $40, or 81 to each member. Prof.
Brick then remarked that there was
curious mathematical phenomenon
lying around Mr.. Williams had
just cashed in S35. and he him
self had 50. so which alone made more than
the sum the bank had named. A rapid
investigation followed. Elder jubilee
Anderson had 1925. Mr.. Whites had IS,
Gus johnson had S11 and Rev. Thankful
Smith himself had S14.75, which made
total of SIS. so. including the chips just
cashed by Mr.. Williams. Careful eXamina
ton of each chip showed no counterfeit,
and Rev. Thankful Smiths eyes suddenly
lighted on Mr.. Whites lead pencil with
the rubber tip, which Mr.. Williams had
returned.
"Didjer loaned him dat scribbler?" he
yelled.

Smith then took the pencil. tried the erasive
powers of the rubber, and demonstrated
that dime chip could be transferred into a
dollar chip with an ease which was dis
heartenng. Then he leaned backward. and
said impressively:

With the Account of an Interesting
Little Game.
New York Times.
1t was already too late to buy bears. and
the chairman was about to adjourn the
meeting in dispair when a happy idea
occurred to Mr.. Williams. He suggested
that paper chips should be issued by Rev.
Thankful Smith, who was banking as usual,
and to prevent any misunderstanding each
should bear his initials. This brilliant plan
was at once put into execution. Prof.
Brick cut three pages from the treasurer's
ledger, and divided them into frag
ments the shape and size of post
age stamp. Mr.. Williams wrote
upon each with pencil 10, 25, so or 1, to
indicate it was quarter. dime, half or
dollar. and the banker, after carefully
counting them, embellshed each with his
initials and a complicated flourish, supposed
to be preventive of forgery. These legal
tenders were duly issued in exchange for
money. and the game began. The good
fortune which attended Mr.. Williams i'll

gentler moments of peace, for he won four
jack pots in succession and garnered every
chip on the table. The banker then devoted
few minutes to issuing fresh supply, and
in preparing them had as before, Mr. Will
Jams cheerful assistance. The game was
then resumed with great yigor, and the
Rev. Thankful Smith began to recuperate,
winning three consecutive pots, and the
only drawback to his fortune was that he
never could get Mr.. Williams in. Pres
entity Mr.. Williams borrowed Mr.. Whites
lead pencil, which had a rubber cap to it,
and said he would go down stairs and offer
the landlord note for thirty days in eX
change for the vanished chips. He was
absent four or five minutes and returned to
say that the matter was settled and that
the landlord had promised to surrender
the chips next week. Then Mr.. Williams
plunged anew into the game and apparently
lost S11 in as many minutes. Then he
yawned and said his recent athletic affair
had Ovetheated him. and he thought he
would cash in and go home. As it was sup
posed he was behind the game. no one
offered objections, and the Rev. Thankful
Smith received his stock. To every ones
surprise Mr.. Williams was still considerably
ahead, having thirty-four chips bearing this
legend:
