EVERYTHING LEFT TO MYERS.
The Consequence Is That Less Than Moth,
ing Is Left of This Concern.

Milwaukee, July 23.-The Home Build
ing and Loan association, of this city, is
a complete wreck. An examination by
State Bank Examiner Kidd shows the
association to be insoivent, the liabili-
ties amounting to sl65.0O0, while the
asssIs foot up but $4,000. Secretary
Treasurer John Harvey Myers is re-
sponsible for the wreck. Though he
claims that his shortage will not exceed
$4,000 the big gap between the liabili-
ties and assets goes to show that it will
reach a much higher figure, one director
going so far as to say &at the defalca-
ton will reach alone close on to $1C0, 900.
The Home Building and Loan assecia-
tiCn was organized eleven years ago,
Myers being its secretary throughout the
whole period. The business of the as
sooiation was left entirely in his hands.
The association has been paying an
pual dividends of 10 per cent, and
these must have been paid from its re-
ceipts. The heaviest losses will fall up
on the directors, who held shares
amounting in sums ranging from 1000
to $4,000. Secretary Myers says the
money was spent in large real estate
deals and other transactions.

The Glamour of Art,

Do you think that g rsek art ever tells
as what tlfe Greek people we're like!
Do you believe that the Athsnian WON.
en- were like the stately, dignified fig
ures Of the Parthenon frieze or like
those marvellous goddesses who sat in
the triangular pediments Of the same
building? II you judge from the art,
they certainly were 80. But read an su-
thority like Aristophanes, for instance.
You will find that the Athenian Ladies'
laced tightly, wore high heeled shoes,
dyed their hair yellow, painted and
rouged their faces and were exactly like
any silly, fashionable or fallen creature
of our own day. The fact is that VIZ
look back on the ages entirely through
the medium Of art, and art, very fortu
nately, has never once told us the truth.
