safety of deposits made certain.
The moral effect of a bank failure. which reaches far
beyond the financial sufferer, is to be dreaded more than
the actual financial loss. The commercial disasters.
which usually follow in its wake. are caused more by
DELAY in the depositurS receiving what is due them than
by ultimate loss, which, as Il matter OF fact, Is extremely
small. In order TO yuunteract the moral erect OF II oahN
failure it sometimes becomes advisable for the clearing
house association of Il city to go to the assistance OF Il
crippled bank OF take over the assets and pay dPpoSitorS
of "A falling one. In view OF the facts would II not be
good business to extend the above principle and the

This association now has Il membership of over 5000,
including the largest financial Institutions in the country,
mi banks and trust companies in the United States being
eligible to membership.
The American Bankers Association should act for its
members and by assessment create Il guaranty fund with
which to meet losses through failures. Certain require
ncntS and restrictions unQupStionably would be necessary
for MEMBERS. The association should have its own corps
Of Examiners. etc. Ways and means could be devised
readily for the organization of Il guaranty department.,
which would be upon the mutual plan.

ATHLETICS IN TIC SCHOOL LIFE.
BY Prof. FasSett A. Cotton

The tendency on the part Of the high schools
to ape college life Is to be discouraged always,
for the reason that most frequently the least
desirable phases are copied. Secret societies,
have no place in the high school and should
not be tolerated. Glass yells and class colors
and excessive class spirits are very frequently
breeders of rowdyism.
1t is not the intention ut all to convey the

Dor National Anthem.

Francis Scott Key wrote only one
poem that entitled him to a lasting repu-
tation, but so firmly has that one poem
gripPed the patriotic consciousness ut
the American people that its fame is as
sured as long as the nation continues.
Key was born in Maryland, August o.
1850. He practised law at Frederick,
Maryland, in 1901, but he subsequently,
removed to Washington, where he be-
came district attorney for the District Of
Columbia.
When the British assembled Chesapeake
Bay, in 1914, and captured Washington.
General Ross and Admiral Cockburn SCI
up headquarters in Upper Marlboro,
Maryland, at the home of Dr. Willam
Beanes, one of Keys friends. Later. Dr.
Beanes was made prisoner by the British,
Interesting himself in securing the release
of his friend, Key planned to exchange
for him a British prisoner in the hands ut
! the Americans. President Madison ap-
proved the exchange, and directed John
~ ohlIhCly dSShl IOI Liz VI
prisoners, to accompany Key to the Bri-
tish commander.
General Ross consented to the exchange.
He ordered, however, that Key and Skin
ner be detained until after the approach
ing attack on Baltimore. They hal
gone from Baltimore out to the British
fleet i'll a vessel provided for them by or
der of President Madison. Now thew
were transferred to the British frigate
Surprise, commanded by Admiral Cock
burns son, but soon afterward they were
permitted to return, under guard, Ia
their own vessel, whence they witnessed
the bombardment of Fort McHenry.
By the glare of guns they could see the
flag flying over the fort during the night,
but before morning the firing ceased, and
the two men passed period of suspsns-,
waiting for dawn, to see whether or not
the attack had failed.
When Key discovered that the fl az was
still there his feelings found vent in verse
On the back of letter he jotted down in
the rough The Star-Spangled Banner"
On his return to Baltimore, Key revised
the poem and gave it to Captain Benz l.
min Fades, of the Twenty -Seventh Balti-
more Regiment, who had it printed.
Taking copy from the press, Fades
went to the tavern next to the Holiday
Street Theater-a gathering. place tor
actors and their congenial acquaint-
ances. Mr. Key had directed that the
words be sung to the air, "Anacreon i'll
Heaven" composed in England by Joh /
Stafford Smith, between 1910 and 1915.
The verses were first read aloud to the
assembled crowd, and then Ferdinand
Durang stepped upon a chair and sang
them.
Key died in Baltimore, January II,
1S43. James Lick bequeathed $50. 600
for a monument to his memory. This

Matvels Of Precocity.

There few men and women in the United
States who do not at least once a year
suddenly find themselves confronted by
what fond fathers and doting mothers
describe as the most remarkable child in
the world.
But there have been others.
Several years ago the newspapers of
Europe were heralding the marvellous
achievements of boy in Berlin, who,
though only two years old, was said to
read in a most surprising manner.
The Learned child of Lubbock" was an
other of these precocious infants, but he
is credited with having such extraordi-
nary talents that one can almost be for
given for doubling the veracity of the
chronicler.
Tasso was another smart child, for he
spoke plainly, it is said, when only six
months old When SC zen years old he
understood Latin and Greek, and even
composed verses, and before he was
twelve, when studying law, he had COM
pleted his course of rhetoric, poetry,
logic and ethics.
Lopez de Vega was also fortunate when
a boy. At five he could read Latin and
Spanish fuently, and at twelve he was
master of the Latin tongue and of rheto-
rio, while at fifteen he had written several
pastorals and a comedy. He is stated
to have produced about eighteen hundred
comedies during his life, SO perhaps it
was necessary to begin when very young
Grotius was another good poet at the
age of eight; at fifteen, accomplished in
philosophy, mathematics, and jurispru-
dencc, and at twenty four he was ap-
| pointed Advocate General of Rotterdam.
Barrctier, at the age of nine, was mas
ter of five languages, while in his eleventh
year he made a translation from the
Hebrew to the French and added notes
such as would be expected from man
of considerable erudition.
Gustavus Vasa was another boy of ex-
cellent brain power, for at the age of
twelve he was able to speak and write
Latin, French, German, Italian, Dutch
and Swedish, and he also understood
Polish and Russian.
Pascal, at twelve, had completely mas
tered Euclid's Elements without any as
sistance, and at sixteen he published a
work on Comic Sections, which Descartes
was reluctant to believe had been pro-
duced by boy.
The "Great Condo" was boy with
brains, and he made good use of them
At eight he understood Latin, and at
eleven he wrote treatise on rhetoric
Three years later he was thoroughly con
versant with all military exercises.
In the world of music. too, we hnd
many instances of boys giving an early
indication of a remarkable career.

the night of the murder, which con-
cealment was Witnessed by woman
