Monday morning, for 1t had been MI
bed Of some postage stamps on sat,E-
day night and the robbery had hesR
exaggerated in the newspaper repeztk
and If this run was not kept v7safz
reasonable limits the bank would hzzsr
to close its doors. 1t had plenty IT.
money, but not plenty Of CASH Il
needed twentyfour hours time. He
fore sunrise on Monday morning Uax
put fresh coat of paint on the Grusf
doors of the bank, on the wall pa1ae5s
and on the counters. The result uae
that people who made the run on Nn-
day made rather walk of it. Try
wanted their money, but they rEzase
no one. On the contrary, they cane a.
with caution and deliberation. II
careful were they lest they get pGnsE
on their clothes that it took longer d.
pay of one Of them than 1t would hxsn
taken ordinarily to pay five. This ~
one Of many odd tricks whereby, IN 4
