AFTER THANKSGIVING DAY.

Today in the general thankfulness for blessings of
all kinds the world looks like pretty bright place to
live in Tomorrow, how will it be- When the first things
begin go wrong most of will say that Thanksgiving
over and that can't be expected be thankful all
the time. Some OF us will have stomach-aches to make
us feel that do not have nearly much be thank
full for thought had and the of us will re-
member the troubles which the sight of the turkey made
us forget and they will seem twice as heavy as before
Most of will think that this is not much of world to
live and wonder how it that SO happy the
day before that is if take time to remember that we
we've happy.
Why is all this? What is the difference between
Thanksgiving Day and the day after, that makes
as il we never expected the sun to rise again.
Is not the difference in ourselves? We have stop
ped remembering blessings. When little some
thing goes wrong do not have cheerful feeling to
put the other side of the balance and the scale tips
down. Then feel little mean, and pretty soon
everything that is said sounds if it had been in
tended for insult We begin expect everything to
60 wrong-and most things do. We feel grouchy, so
everything that friends say to sounds that way
And as get more and more unhappy we get to be
and worse company that people do not want
to have around till last those that let this sort of
feeling get away with them pretty nearly down and
out-no smiles gumption, grit, nothing good
1t the inside feeling that made the difference.
when man happy bothers slide off him like water off
ducks back, and trouble keeps long way off, And
when a man is thankful he is happy. And when man
really thinks of how things going matter how hard
up he may be- he will find that there is big balance
the good side unless he has met with some really
great msfotunethe kind that only to each of us
twice life time. So if instead of all forget
ing blessings soon as Thanksgiving Day is over
think Of them little every day. will find that we
will keep happy, and our happiness will of shine
around and make the world brighter for others and
ourselves too.

tried hard to make it unpleasant for
him but did very little.

BIG FOOTBALL GAME TODAY

The big football game Of the season
here. the one between the College and
the town teams, will be played on
the Athletic Field. this afternoon
starting at two o'clock. Everybody
ought to be there to holler for his
team, as the game will be close and
hot. and the boys will play better for
encouragement.
The town team has been practicing
hard for two weeks under the able
management of John Welch, and ought
to be able to give the College boys
the time OF their lives. The Varsity
has expressed itself as being sure to
win, but the town team has some of
the best players in this part of the
state on it. and will at least play
a game that will make the College
sure there has been something doing,
whichever wins.
Every one ought to see this game,
for every one knows most of the
men on both sides. The Thanksgiv-
ing game is always the best one Of
the season everywhere, and here It
will be decidedly better than any 9TH
err. Everybody come out, and remem-

POWERS GAINING GROUND
Harrison venire acknowledgements
For Appeal to U. S. Courts Pre-
pared-Howard In Court.

The Powers case is as far from be-
ing ready for the taking OF testimony
as 1t was a week ago. There is no
doubt. however. that he is in a
stronger position than he has ever
been before. and he has won some not
able victories during the last week
The first OF these was when Judge
Morris allowed the challenge OF the
second venire from Harrison county
and dismissed the talesmen. This ac-
tion was taken after hearing tes-
timony which proved the charges that
improper methods had been used in
selecting the venire, and that it would
be impossible to have a fair trial with
Jury men selected from 1t. The judge
refused, however, to dismiss the first
venire. against which similar charges
had been filed, and Powers attorneys
will. II he loses the case, use this as
one of the grounds Of an appeal to
the United States courts.
The new panel OF talesmen was
summoned from Grant County and
the selecting of iurymen was taken
up again. late last week. BY Satur-
day night several more jurymen had
been passed and 1t was expected then
that the jury would be completed by
"Wednesday of this week On Mondav
however. the Commonwealth attacked
the Grant County venire on much the
same grounds as had been alleged
against the Harrison County panel,
and the court took up the business
OF sitting these charges. At the same
time the Commonwealth attempted TO
challenge "for cause" several jurymen
who had already been passed. Powers
lawyers fought this. but the court fin
ally sustained the Commonwealth. The
importance of this Is that If men can
be challenged for cause and thus re-
moved, the prosecution will not have
TO use up its peremptory challenges,
and so will be in better shape to get
the kind of jury it wants. The pros
ecution intends to have every man
who has said he was Republican
thrown off.
The probability that the real open
ing OF the trial win be still further

M ON EY TALKS
The Surplus of a Bank
How u Is built up, and what il Is For


Every good bank has a large sur
plus fund. which has beer built up q
little at a time out OF the earnings Of
the bank. The bank makes money by
selling money orders, by collecting
drafts, and by loaning money out at
interest. These are the ways in which
bank makes its money.
Now the law requires that every
year at least one-tenth of all the
money a bank makes must be set
aside to cover any losses the bank
may have by reason of bad loans or
any other cause. This money which
the law requires to be set aside every
year out of the profits of the bank is
called the banks surplus fund.
The balance Of the profits remaining
from the earnings after the surplus
has been set aside can be divided up
among the stockholders as a dividend
but no money can be paid out of the
profits to the people who hold stock
of all the money the bank has made
has been set aside and added to the
surplus fund.
The surplus, being part of the
profits Of the business, of course be-
longs to the stockholders who own
the banks capital, but the law will
not allow any stakeholder to draw
out his share. The only use to which
the surplus can be put is to make
good any losses the bank may suffer-
II 1t is not used in this way. it must
be kept from year to year anc allowed
TO accumulate. 1t cannot be divided
up among the stockholders. This be-
sides the capital, which was explained
last week, the surplus also serves as
an additional protection to the depos-
itors who have money in the bank
For example, the net earnings Of
the Berea Banking Company (now the
Berea Bank and Trust Company for
last year were s26S5SS. The law re-
quired at least one-tenth of this, or
$26S.54 to be added to the surplus
fund. But the directors of the bank
did more than the law required them
to do, and added s635.3S to their sur
plus, so that it now amounts to more
than 100000.
This is how the law protects the
money Of the depositors which they
have left with the bank for safe-keep-
ing: First, by compelling the bank
to have money of its own, or capital,
before allowing it to take other peo-
pies money for safe keeping; Second.
by compelling the bank to set aside
each year a tenth of all its profits
in surplus fund, and Third, by
making every stakeholder liable TO
the depositors not only for the amount
of the banks capital which he owns,
but for that much in addition.
And this is why, other things being
equal, the bank with large capital
and surplus will be a safer bank to
put your money in than one with
small capital and surplus. Because
the larger the capital and surplus are.
the larger is the sum standing be-
tween the depositors and any loss.
