that the hay was damaged. After
ward he sold the TO a consumer.
and made return TO the shipper at
the rate of about twO-thirds of
the original price agreed upon.

specified that no stained" hay
was to be shipped. The jury rem

sented the amount which had been
offered Gin a check by Ellyson, but
had been refused by the plaintiffs.

The Bank Statements.

The bank statements in this issue
show an excellent state of financial
affairs in this section, and healthy
and growing business.
The Bank of Clarke County
shows an increase of more than
$685. and the First National
Bank of Berryville shows an in
crease of more than $4,000.
The two statements above re-
ferred to indicate an increase in the
financial condition of Clarke county
of more than $40, 900 since Septem-
Der. but the statement of the Boyce
State Bank (which was delayed by
failure of the bank To receive It's
statement cali from the Corpor-
alton Commission), which will be
published next week, is expected
to show good increase. and that,
taken with the fact that there are
a large number OF our citizens who
bank in Winchester and Charles
Town, will show a much larger in
crease in our county business than
is indicated by our local bank
statements.
II is believed by conservative
business men that the increase in
available capital. due to the move
ment of crops will reach 100000.

distance can come and feel at home
when visiting the National Capital.
These societies are first. the
organization of the veterans of the
Civil War; second, the Woman's
Relief Corps. and third, the Sons
of Veterans.
1t is not necessary To dwell on
the subjects for which these socie-
ties were organized. They are
we'll known-as will be testified by
the many southerners who have
been aided by them. And no true
southern man OF woman will deny
the Importance of keeping alive
the traditions of our fathers. 1t
has been deemed wise to give our
friends who do not live in Wash
ington an opportunity to help in
the purchase of this memorial home.
Any sympathizer with this cause
is invited to contribute. The
amount of the contribution is left
to the individual conscience.
Whatever your heart prompts you
to give, give. We are to be judg-
ed by our intentions, not by what
we actually do. Subscriptions
