Tho Round Robin.

The "round robin" had it's origin sew
eral centuries ago in France.
It was used there by officers Of the
army as a method Of expressing their
dissatisfaction with the course of the
king or his ministers. By signing in a
circular form the leaders of the move
ment could not be ascertained and
singled out for punishment.
The first instance on record Of the
use Of this form of protest in the navy
occurred in 1926. at the instigation Of
the Duke of Buckingham, the kings
favorite, an English feet, under Ad-
miral Bennington, was dispatched to
Rochelle to assist in the coercion of the
Protestant subjects of Louis XIII. of
France. But the English tars, in COM
mon with their fellow countrymen,
looked with favor upon the resistance
Of their coreligionists against the pros
elyting zeal of the French king, and
they signed "round robin" express
ing their determination not to- fire a
shot against them, and without wait
ing for reply they weighed anchor
and brought their ships back to Eng
land. The admiral, however, received
a peremptory order to return to
Dieppe, whereupon the whole Of the
crews quilted the ships without fur

Herbert Morrow, bent and careworn,
passed the parlor door. His daughter
Daisy smiled up at him as he glanced
at her in passing, but the smile turned
into sigh as the bowed figure van
ished.
''Is the run on the bank serious p

answered. She was engaged to Deg

''Is there no way out?" persisted
Degnon. "Just how does the matter
stand?"
1T is plot Of Ridgley's," began the
banker. 1T cannot be proven, but he
practically owns the Provident Savings
bank as we'll as the First National"
"That is news to me-" said Degnon.
"And to most others. For some rea-
son Ridgley does not want his connec-
tlon with the Provident bank known.
Now, just at present there Is heavy
demand for money on short time loans.
The high rates of interest have led both
the Provident and my own bank, the
Union, to send all Of our surplus to the

An Oakes young man hands the fol-

the editor what vision incited the
muse to working, but it is evident that
said young man has the symptoms
very strong:
II dreamed of you last night. 1t

you is written on my heart. Your

II think see," mused Degnon.
"Both banks need money. The Provi-
dent can get it from its sister bank
Your Union will have to admit it's in
ability to pay depositors. They turn
shaky about your bank and 60 to the
rival institution"
"Thats part Of the scheme. The rest
is this: Next week the interest accrues.
If there is a run and the money is
withdrawn, this interest is lost to the
depositor. The First National will get
the use Of the money until the scare is
over. They announced tonight that
their interest would be paid. When
the scare Is over they will cut off the
interest and send the money back to
their savings bank, while in the mean
time the standing of my bank is lost.'
'There is just one thing to be DONE"
said Degnon, producing blank form.
"Put electricity into your bank"
"How will that help?" asked the
banker 'It is sign Of enterprise,
but am afraid in few days l shall
have no bank to light"
Degnon smiled.
Il have an idea," he explained. 81
think 1t is a good one."
With trembling hand Morrow signed
the contract, and Degnon rose to CO.
In the hall he stopped to say good
night to Daisy and explain that he had
to see some one on business on his
way home; hence his haste.
The some one was the mayors Sec
retary, and as result of the visit a

had gathered in front of the two saw

put in an appearance. The First Ma

interested, occupied corner building,

Provident, stood diagonally opposite,
