Savings Accounts That Have Lair
Dormant for Many Years.

Savings Accounts That Have Lain
Dormant for Many Years.
The Bank for Savings, which is ~
, years old, has the heaviest dormant
account in New York. about $500, 900,
in which 1000 accounts are tied up.
OF these the ownership of about 200
are solved each year. and to this ac-
count are added about fifty, which,
after the lapse of twenty-one years
without being touched, are entitled to
enter the dormant class. But in these
days the sank does not allow accounts
to rest so long. and after ten years
have elapsed a search is made n the
depositor located. After that the bank
keeps informed of their whereabouts
each year. In 1919. the year when the
bank first opened its doors, a church
mission in New York made "A deposit
in the name of Mission to jerusalem"
The amount deposited was small. but
it was ~sixty-one years before that
amount and interest was paid to the
proper church authorities. One of the
Oldest cases which | have seen since
| took hold of this work" says Mr.. De
Lisser. of the Bank of Savings. was
that of a colored girl who lived four
miles from Jamaica. The pastor of the
family. while making a call one day,
saw the children playing with a soiled
and torn bank book. They had sCrib-
bled over the leaves and were tossing
the book about. No one in the family
seemed to understand What the book
was. and the pastor, looking at it and
seeing that it was one OF our pass
books, advised them to bring it to the
bank. This girl, who was II or Is
years old, brought it to me, n on
looking up the account | saw that it
called for several hundred dollars, de-
posted by a woman who afterward
proved to be the girls grandmother.
Eventually the girl got the money, and
the incident, | thought, was closed.
But several months afterward she came
in and said: I was just goin' by, and
! thought I'd drop in and tell you
how much good the money did us. And
say, do you know, I've been married on
it. And she left beaming all over as
l congratulated her.'-New York Press.

half a mile distant. Graves horse was
striking fire from the hinty roadbed.
The Race Begins.
Broad. straight and level, the road
stretched into the moonlight as far as
the eye could see, and twenty miles
of it lay between Lady Margaret and
the county seat in which the old Ii
cense clerk perhaps was already
asleep.
Courage" said Altamont. feeling
the rose at his heart and bending over
the neck of his thoroughbred as if
she understood. The white road
blurred under her swift feet. The
fields of golden wheat circled to right

hemp and the scented clover fields.

mares hoofs beat staccato on the
white limestone. And one by one.

Of the semi-dark, tlaring ghostly in
the moonlight. and reeled behind.
Turning into the street where the
old clerk lived, Altamont heard the
brass knocker on the door laundering.
At the steps he saw the old man in the
hall greeting his caller by the light
of a candle, and grumbling at the in
terruption of his slumber.
Exultation of Success.
He stood by while the old man. with
uncertain pen, filled out a blank for
Graves, and as the young man passed
him there was a CLEAN of eXultation
in his eyes. Before the old man could
turn to Altamont the latter heard
Graves horses hoofs far down the
street. The old man read. grunted,
rubbed his eyes. and looked again.
"Write-for Gods sake. write" Al
lamont exclaimed. putting a gold piece
into the old mans hand.
Put up your gold, my son, I'll
serve you for the love We all have for

He knew that Graves was a milo

ride who knows that happiness waits

Representatives Of eight nations met
At Chirstiana early this summer to
consider methods Of systematic inter-
national oceanic research. Sweden,
Germany, Great Britain, Denmark.
Belgium, Norway. Russia and Holland
were the nations represented. The
scheme Professionally adopted divides
the eastern north Atlantic and its es-
tuaries into spheres, each of which is
looked after by one of the nations. 1t
Is expected that each country will
equip a special ship for it's work.
There is to be a central international
laboratory, possibly at Christiana,
where the work of the various ships
will be collated and combined and the
general results OF the work made ready
for the public. The work OF the asso-
eiation will be of a practical as we'll
as scientific character. The study OF
the distribution of fish, fish food de-
posits. etc. will be M OF the first
items in the present plan.

Congressman Mondell's plan of hav-
ing star route contractors who live in
the states where the routes are located
is likely t o be of incalculable benefit
to the people. The old plan of letting
these contracts to persons away off in
Kentucky or elsewhere was an abom-
nation, for the reason that they We're
invariably sublet at a figure which ne
cessitated the poorest kind of service.
This thing was carried so far that the
Colorado society for the prevention OF
cruelty to animals complained because
some of our star reuters uld not feed
their horses enough TO keep skin and
bones together II then whipped them
over the lines to make the time. their
only excuse for such action being that
the price they received for their mail
contracts was too low. The new deal
will be a better one.

a great cathedral at Roskilde, an old
town 20 miles from Copenhagen.
Every year when the king is enter
tanning his royal guests the entire
family always pays a visit to Roskil-
de, in obedience to an ancient GUS
tom. On one of the pillars are marks
showing the height of Peter the Great,
Nicholas. the Iron Gar; Alexander
III. of Russia, the king of England,
and many other kings. The cathedral
was built in the 18th century. 1t has
two mighty towers. which can be
seen at a long distance. The oldest
grave is that of King Harold l., who
died in 9S7, and the last burial was
that of the body of the late Queen
Louise.

SOME DANGER FROM WEALTH.
The Command of Luxurics Tends to
Stunt the Mind.

Stunt the Mind.
A noted German philosopher said
that every fine dinner his friends had
invited him to had injured his diges-
ton, and consumed an amount of vital
energy that would have been sufficient
for the production of an entire page Of
good writing. Each of these dinners
he said, had blunted his brain and
incapacitated him for high thinking
and good literary work. One cluster of
grapes. one slice of bread, and a glass
of milk twice a day afforded him all
the nourishment he required. This was
a remarkable example Of plain living
and high thinking.
In choosing an occupation it is of
the greatest Importance to choose that
which will leave one free to develop
the higher nature, to live a life as
complete as life is possible, says Sue
cess.
Considered from the standpoint of
the welfare of the race, or from that of
nature itself, scarcely anything could
be more unkind or cruel than to place
a youth, with all his budding poSsibili-
ties depending for their development
upon the stimulus which the conscious
ness of necessity gives. in the midst
of great wealth and luxury.
Few things are so paralyzing to the
average ambition. so detrimental to
the cultivation of the faculties. as the
consciousness o: being placed beyond
the need of struggle. On the other
hand, nothing else so develops the
powers of youth, so stimulates the I'M
folding Of possibilities. as the con-
seriousness of being entirely dependent
upon ones own eXertions.
Many a man lives in a palace sur
rounded by all the luxuries wealth can
purchase, while his soul grovels in the
mire. Many a millionaire frescoes in
the ceiling of his sumptuous home
with the richest figures that the mas
tiers can devise, but the ceiling of his
mind is frescoed with hideous. de-
moralizing pictures. His home is filled
with beauty, but his heart is black
and murky with the images of a dis
eased Imagination.

DOUBTS THE WISDOM

Congressman Frank w. Mondell has
a clear-cut way of expressing himself
upon all public questions. This facul-
ty is the result of study and research.
He has just spoken upon the matter
Of the segregation of a large tract of
alleged oil lands in Natrona county
and believes the action taken by the
department to have been ill-advised
and unwise. He is of the opinion that
the land laws as at present constituted
are sufficient to protect both the oil
operators and agricultural claimants.
Under the agricultural acts claim
ants are required to file an affidavit to
the effect that the land is more valua-
bic for agricultural purposes thar for
mineral and at the time Of final proof
they are required to prove that no min
eral of any character exists upon the
land. This is done by the affidavit of
claimant and two witnesses. On the
other hand mineral claimants are re-
Quired to make a mineral showing be-
fore patent issues and this showing is
of such a character and the price paid
for the land is SO high tina there is
little danger of land more valuable for
agriculture than for mineral being tax.
en- as mineral land. In a recent inter
view Mr.. Mondell said:
Il doubt the necessity of wholesale
Withdrawals of lands from agricultural
entry for the encouragement of Oil
development and the protection of cap
ital invested or seeking to invest in
oil enterprises. The provisions Of the
land laws requiring definite proof as
to the character of lands before entry,
in my opinion, reasonably safeguard
the interests of both agricultural and
mineral claimants.
From the standpoint of the oil in
dustry itself, | doubt the wisdom of
entering upon a policy of attempting
to segregate oil lands upon a super,
fetal examination of the surface of the
country; if there is any advantage in
having an oil field declared such by
he government this advantage should
extend to every known field in the
state, Of which there are many, and
then the question arises as to how
much territory shall be declared oil
bearing in each field, for it would be
manifestly unjust TO have one portion
of a field declared oil land and not
another, thereby giving the mineral
claimants in one field a supposed pro,
lection, as well as prestige, not en-,
joyed by the claimants in another
field or in another portion Of the same
field. So far as the lands are con.
cerned which contain surface indica.
