SCHOOL NEEDING REPAIRS,
SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO RESIDENTS
DISAPPOINTED WITH THE
BOARD.
DIRECTOR CLINToN's PROMISE TO
EDITOR GRIFFITHS STILL
UNFULFILLED,

There is considerable disappointment in
South San Francisco over the failure of the
Board of Education to have the South San
Francisco schoolhouse repaired.
DR.. David B. Todd and others labored
hard for months to have some attention
paid to its condition, and Editor H. E.
Grifiths of the Mail was particularly
urgent with Director Clinton.
Between 500 and 600 children attend this
school, which is barn-like frame building
on Fourteenth avenue. When the rainy
season comes they will have to wade
through mud ankle deep up Fourteenth
avenue to get to the school. DR.. Todd
tried, as the agent for the Masonic Hall
Association, and a resident, to have q
sidewalk of some kind put in so the
children could reach the school with dry
feet, but to no avail. Nothing, he says,
can be done until the grade OF that block
is established it seems, and when the grade
will be established nobody is able to tell.
No prospect is yet held out to the resi-
dents of the Potrero and South San Fran
CISCO of the running of the Solano-street
electric line in the near future. The street
has been paved with basalt blocks for the
seven blocks from Kentucky street west
ward, and it has been accepted. The Six.
teenth-street sewer now stands in the way.
however, and, until it is completed, it is
not expected that the line will be running.
The boilers are now being placed in the
new Bryalit-street pOwer-house, and the
first set of engines has been put in by the
Union Iron Works.

NEW TO-DAY.
NEW TO-DAY.
S. 4 MONTH.
It Is the Only Charge Made by the
Copeland Medical Institute.
Medicines and All Else Are Fur
nished at This Charge of SIS, and
This Is the Most Favorable Season
for Curing Diseases of Any Nature.
Read the Evidence Below.

The system of practicing medicine as inau-
gurated by the Copeland Medical Institute was
not intended to be q money-making scheme,
but for the purpose of enabling people OF small
means to obtain the same treatment that rich
physicians know that they can cure diseases
that strike at nine-tenths of our people, and
they know that by advertising this fact and
treating patients on a grand scale they can
afford to charge low fee to cover cost of serv-
ices and medicines-$5 a month-to all. In
these hard times such fee commends itself to
every one needing medical treatment, and
when the ability of the physicians is vouched
for every week by citizens of high standing
and unimpeachabev eracity, who desire others
would seem that the man or woman who seeks
medical attention is wasting time and money
in not going to the Copeland Medical institute
at once.

was Just one man, and she wouldn't let
him speak to her for five years, because he
hadn't been introd uced.
Well, that's the very kind of ladies that
get real mad if you say they'll have to be
identified.
One of them came in our bank Saturday
while I was learning to do the work of the
cashier.
A nice little dog was leading the lady by
a ribbon, and there was a maid to take care
of the dog.
The lady with the sleeves gave me a
check, and looked at it and said just
awful kind, Madam, you will have to get
somebody to identify you.''
She got mad right off.
She looked at me and said: "Young
man. you'll know less when you are older,
but FL never, never, never do any more
business at this bank as long as 1 live"
And then the dog took her away.
/ made one slip that Uncle Dick says is
likely to cause me and him to lose our
places IN the bank. The editor intimated
that l needn't bother about writing
! it, as his artist had made a picture that
would explain the whole thing. But how
was | to know Mr.. Huntington and Mayor
! Sutro were good for all the money in that
| bank if they wanted it without waiting to
! be identified as l had been told was neces-
! sary2
! Policemen stay around banks a good deal.
1 asked a man why. He said that long,
long ago, when San Francisco was first dis
! covered, there was once forger.
| The police people got in the habit of
! looking for the forger then, and they have
never been able to stop.
| OF course, when you get great big thing
like the Police Department started up it is
very hard thing to get it stopped again.
| About the easiest job around bank is to
| be president. All you have to do is to
keep your silk hat shiny and to sign your
name, and go on signing it and signing it.
| You only have to keep awake about two
hours of the day, and you sit at a desk
with nothing much on it but bouquet of
roses, and you have somebody else do
everything for you, but the signing your
name.
| 1suppose you could even get somebody
to do that for you if you wanted to; but of
course you would never be able to find
anybody who would look after your silk
hat as you'd look after it yourself.
About the hardest job of all is the cash
ier's. Just think of the figures that man
has to keep in his head
| He has to know just what kind of bank
account every body keeps-whether they
overdraw or are careful; whether they pay
drafts promptly, and all about every body 8
money matters generally.
| Most likely people just act out their ma
lures in money matters, too, and Eli just
! bet those cashiers know whole lot about
people as well as about figures.
When man comes into a bank to bor-
row money the cashier has got to know
more about the mans business than the
man does himself.

thought you could Just wade through
the stacks OF $50 gold pieces, or lie down
and roll in them if you wanted to.
They don't do business that way at all.
The money is all tied up tight in musty
old canvas bags, and not even the presi-
dent OF the bank can GO in there and pour
it out to play with. That's the joke of it,
You see.
Not the president nor any of the rest of
the hundred or so people that work IN a
bank can even borrow enough of all that
money to buy loaf OF bread with, unless
he goes around in front of the counter.
and stands in line with the rest of the
folks, and passes up check just like he
was a stranger. Only guess maybe the
president wouldn't have to be identified.
Everybody else has to be identified, and
I'll tell you what that means.
If you are playing marbles out in the
yard. and somebody comes up behind you
on tipsy-toes and claps her hands over
your eyes and waits for you to guess who
it is, and if you say "Phyllls" and it is
Phyllis-why, that's identification.
But they don't do it just like that IN a
bank. When man brings IN a check
they ask him if he knows anybody in the
bank.
If the man can't look you in the eye,
and turns awful red and stammers, mo,
nobody knows me-" you know he is all
right, and you pay him the money his
check calls for.
But if the man don't act that way you
Just tell him he will have to be identified.
You say it sort of tenderly, so it won I
hurt him. You do that because there are
lots of men around and especially women
that haven't got any sense.

money the cashiers got to send the man
away, saving he's ever and ever so much
obliged for the advice.
And If he gets the money, why, of course,
he's just awfully much obliged for being
allowed to pay the interest on it.
They teach cashiers to say little piece
that is something like this:
Banking is the art of borrowing money
without interest, lending it with interest,
and making both borrower and lender feel
under obligations to the bank"
The man who pays out money is called O

Nobody in bank Is ever allowed to tell
anything. That is not part of the bank
ing business.
1t isn't any trouble at all to be teller
that is it looks as if il wasn't till YOU try.
Somebody else fixes a tray of money,
and when those fellows pay it out or take
any other money in it just slips through

if it just counted itself.

SOMETHING INTERESTING.

Letter to the Children Who Read the
"Call.n
Children, do you like poetry? If you
will all listen, will tell you about little
girl who loved poetry and wrote beautiful
little verses herself. When she was only
years old she wrote some pretty verses to
THE KITTEN AND THE BIRD.
A kitten went to the BRIDES house,
And found him sitting upon amouse.
And then he sprang right on the mouse,
And made him holler fnix cum rouse"
When she was a year older she wrote
some verses to
THE DAISIES.
Daisies with eyes so bonny blue,
Up to the mountains quick they flew,
And scattered all about the ground,
And in little hole they found,
smaller daisy in the ground.
The San Francisco call. [volume] (San Francisco [Calif.]) 1895-1913, 1895-10-27

/ hope you will all like these verses, be-
cause they were made up by little girl no
bigger than yourselves, and her mamma
wrote them for me.
Just little later she made some verses to
THE TWILIGHT.
Open the window at candlelight
And let the stars shine in so bright
And the moon so yellow andround
Shlnes down on earth upon the GROUND.
A horse goes scamp ring down the street
with iron shoes upon his feet.
Then this little poet wrote some more
verses.
One sunny summer day
Wild roses were at play,
"But none of this" the daisies said
'We think we now will go to bed"
Harkl Hark!
Down the parLSi
Where the band ia playing
Listen, listen to the lark
Hear what he is saying;
Hear him say "K'c chick, k'chickn
Scamp ring down the trees to pick.
When she was six years old her DADA
went away, and she wrote little poem to
him:
We all were lonely when you went
My papa sweet and dear,
wish n letter you had sent
To tell us you near,
pretty spoonful bring with him,
A pretty spoon for me,
When he comes home 10 little Jim.
How happy will be.
My darling sister she will be,
So glad her dear papa to see;
She'll smack him in her loving way
And then TO him she'll try TO say,
love you, papa, every day,
My dollieS are not broken yet,
Ny kitty is little pet,
MY mamma is quite well to-day,
And that is all have to say.
In the next month she wrote fairy
story in verse:
1t the faith OF fairy land,
When children were at play,
The birds were sitting on the boughs,
A-singing every day;
And little roses peeped their heads,
And looked about and smiled,
While all the pretty daisies looked
As they were growing wild;
Cunning MOSES blooming up,
Red berries dropping low.
wen put them in little cup
And there We'll let them grow.
Was she not a bright little girl to write
such pretty verses? But l am sure that
many of my little readers can write verses
too, and wish they would all try to write
some and send them to me. Those who
cannot write any verses at all may write
little letters, telling me all about them
selves, and the editor of THE CALL, who is
a very kind man, says that he will print
the prettiest verses and their best letters
In the children's page. OF course you
must not copy little Irenes verses, but
send me some that you have written your
selves, and tell me how old you were when
you wrote each poem. Please tell me, too,
why you like to write verses, and whether
you nope to be a great poet some day.
Tell me all about it, for I shall be inter-
ested in every word you say. | hope you

can write verses will send me some.
