"a run on bank is funny thing"
said the old banker who was in a remin-
iscent mood. They will start without
the slightest cause, and you never know
when to expect them. 1t may be only a
rumor, it may be in the air, and the deed
is done. Many good bank has gone to
the wall simply because there was no
way to know that run was in prospect,
and there are times when the soundest
bank in the world could not stand an
unexpected run.
IA number OF years ago, when was a
young, man was cashier of a bank in the
interior of the state. The bank was in
good condition, and perfectly sound, and
we did not dream that our credit would
be questioned. But one day run started
without warning, and inside of two
hours there was bowling mob around
the bank, and we realized that we had a
serious situation to face.
ut was simply impossible for us to
meet all the demands, but | paid out the
funds that we had on hand, knowing full
well that it was question of only few
minutes when we would be obliged to
close.
Finally the president of the bank came
to me and said in low voice:
How much longer can we hold out ?''
mot over ten minutes" / answered
wiping the beads of perspiration from
my brow.
Calmly and deliberately he reached
over to the money case, picked up SIC
bill. rolled it lengthwise, stepped to the
stove and lit it. Then, without a CULVER
of an eyelid, he produced cigar, bit of
the end and proceeded to light it from
the burning bill.
THAT move saved the bank. The maj
to whom at that moment / was handing
his balance, gasped, and then, Showing
the money back, said he would leave it
1t was the turn of the tide, and the rul
ceased. We didn't even lose the $40 bill
as the president was careful enough t.
see that there was enough left to be re
deemed. - Detroit Free Press.
