Cashier Telephones from New
MartinsviIle to Close Ii
and Stop Payments.
NO REASON YET KNOWN
It's Stated That the Depositors
viii Be Paid in
Full.

The Smithle1ds bank at smIthneld.
Wetzel county, closed Its doors Tues
day morning.
This action was taken by Assistant
Cashier Downs upon telephone mos
sage by the banks cashier, W. A.
Lewis. who was at New Martinsyiiie.
Lewis also gave him instructions to
hang out the sign: Payments sus-
pended"
The action OF the cashier Is yeiled
in mystery and has not az vet been
explained. There had been no bank
examiner around before the bank
closed nor had their been any run on
the bank or talk Of run, so far as
can be learned here.
The residents of SmIthfield them
selves are all at a loss to know why
the bank closed and pobably no In
formation viii be obtalnable until
the state bank examiner arrives to
take charge of the banks affairs
It Is not know whether the bank
viii reopen or lIquldate. However,
1T is stated that the depositors will all
be paid in full II 1t Is decided to llq-
uidate.
The last statement of the bank
made when state bank statements
were called for several months ago.
shows the following summary:
Loans tapd discouts, $4,000.
Capital stock. $4,000.
Surplus. SO, 900.
Deposits, $4,000.
Cashier Lewis is a son-in-law Of
John L. RobiiG3on OF Robinson, the
wealthy oil territory operator in
Wetzel county. who is largely inter-
ested in the bank.
The suspended bank is the only one
in Smlthfield and Its closing is likely
to greatly hinder the dispatch OF
business there, though It may not
seriously involve any of those inter-
ested as stockholders or other bust
ness men.

I made my own bolster roll from
discarded cheese box and few
thin strips Of wood. The cheese box,
of which only the top and bottom
circles were used, was twelve inches
in diameter, and the strips fifty
three inches long. The strips were
nailed around the edges Of the cir
cles so as to form a hollow cylinder
Of slate, with an opening OH one
side large enough to tuck the pillows
away into while the Bolster was in
use. A piece Of heavy wire clothes
line formed circle about the CEN
ter of the cylinder, to give strength
and prevent sagging. First the ends
Of the bolster were padded, then the
cylinder was covered, both inside and
out, with coarse white muslin, when
it was ready for the final decorative
touches. Idea Woman's Maga-
zine.
