entries in the banking method of
bookkeeping so as to carry defalcations
for years. Every little while we have
evidences OF. the deficiency in our laws
in connection with our banking bust
ness that ought to stimulate our
legislators to provide more protection
to the depositors who leave their
money in an institution that has their
confidence. These failures and defal-
cations have a depressing effect upon
first class banking methods. Without
confidence, of course, we can hardly
transact any business, but usually it is
bad sign to see any bank official
speculatively inclined. We are glad
to know that the Grand Rapids bank
ing institutions cannot be thus criti-
cized. They have the confidence of
the people aud the men who are con-
nected Herewith in the management
Of the institutions, are not, and never
have been of speculative tendency.
We have every reason to be proud of
them as there has never been failure
in this line of business in Grand
Rapids history, since the failure OF
a private bank in the early days Of
this city.

SCHOOL PRINCIPAL BLINDED

NEW LONDON, Wis, Oct 14.-As
Edward st. Clair, principal of the
school at Welcome, was passing a
hardware store there, a gun was &C.
cidentally discharged. The charge
hit ST. Clair spuarely in the face, de-
stroying the eyesight and terribly mu-
tilating his face. 1t is thought he
will recover.

The failure of the First National
Bank recently in Mineral Point is
certainly another evidence of the
deficiency of our state laws and the
bank examining method. We cannot
understand how any official in bank
can be able to cover and substitute

some property very cheap.
Would you have enough money
to close the deal? The only real
practical way to prepare for OPP

deposit a small amount every
week or month in the Savings
Bank. The compound interest
we pay helps make it grow.

BUILDING OF WALL
DELAYED BY ERROR
Contractor Bids one-Tenth of Amount
Enthusiastically Will Not
Be Held to Pro-
posal

Again the construction of the retain
ing wall in Hope street, between Sec
ond and Third streets, is delayed. This
time it is because J. A. Hill, con-
tractor, made an error of one cipher in
his bid. Hill proposed to build. the
wall for $2640. The figure he really
meant to submit was $26,400
That this figure was an error is
shown by the fact that the next bid
der asked $4,000 for doing the work,
and that the amount of the bond sub
mitted by Hill was exactly the same
as the amount of the bid. The Vroo-
man act law requires the bond shall
be not less than 10 per cent of the bid.
Hill has been endeavoring to have
the board of public works declare the
bid irregular, and the matter was sub
mitted to the city attorney for his
opinion. The attorney, holds that on
the face of it the bid is perfectly regu-
lar. But the board of public works
probably will not hold Hill to his bid,
but reject all proposals and readvertise.
The bid of $4,000, which Is the only
one really considered by the board. Is
lower than the estimate for the work
made by the city engineer. Mr.. Ham
lin estimated that the work would cost
about $4,000. OF this amount the city
has appropriated $4,000, the rest to be
paid by the property owners. The city
originally gave $4,000 for the construc-
tion of plain concrete wall The en-
gineer found that the plain wall would
cost about $4,000, but the property
owners wanted stairway and some
ornamentation and agreed to pay the
extra expense.

ADVISORY COMMITTEE WANTS
TO KNOW STANDING
Communication Addressed to Super
visors to Ask for Definition of
Standing Members of Recently
Appointed Council

An executive session of the advisory
committee appointed by the board OF
supervisors when the good roads pro-
ject was being agitated last summer,
was held in the chamber of commerce
rooms yesterday, almost the entire
membership of the body being present
After two hours elaboration it was
decided to address a communication
to the supervisors requesting the lat
ter to define the position of the COM
mittee as soon as possible. This COM
munication will be filed with the su-
pervisors at their meeting Monday, the
details of the latter being left to Sid
ney A. Butler chairman, and f. W..
Blanchard, secretary.
1.-The communication will be a long
one" said Mr.. Blanchard after the
meeting, taking up the history of the
good roads movement and the creation
of the committee. A direct request will
be made to the supervisors that they
define the present status of the COM
mittee, as the members do not know
how they stand with the supervisors,
in view of the fact that they were not
consulted when the county body made
and let contracts for road
work without mentioning the fact to
u.s."
The work of the supervisors and the
history of the committee in connec-
ton with the good roads was also
gone over with much detail.

ATTACK MAN WHOM THEY
THOUGHT WAS INFORMER
Two Employees of Lithographing Conn

Clarence Weaver and Eldon Davis,
graph company plant, 5251a South Main
street, pleaded guilty in Police Justice
Roses court yesterday morning to
charges of battery preferred by l.. A.
Mcdonald of 1886 Carl avenue, Holly
wood, also an employe of the Autograph
company, and were fined SIS each,
which they paid. !.
According to the story of Mcdonald
the two young men had evaded the
payment of their poll taxes. Later
some one informed on them and they
were compelled to pay. This made them
angry, and, deciding Mcdonald was
the informer, they beat him with their
fists. Not satisfied with this, McDon-
aid says, the men then took wrenches
and struck him on the head.

jury to himself and II. M. Slemmons,

driving the commission car at a high
rate of speed when the right front
wheel slipped off, allowing the axle to
drop to the ground. Ferris clinched
the steering gear quickly, the machine
crashing into the rocks and brush near
the roadway. The two men walked to
Glendale, where telephone message
was sent to Los Angeles and another
automobile was sent out to bring in the
damaged machine, which reached Los
Angeles yesterday.

Cut in His
Head

Leor Demara, years old, who sus-
tanned a deep and painful cut on his
head when he fell from tree near his
nome at 816 Judson street yesterday,
displayed unusual fortitude and nerve
while his injury was being treated at
the receiving hospital shortly after the
accident.
The lad was accompanied by his
smother. The latter seemed to fear that
the surgeons would hurt the lad and
was quite nervous. The youngster, on
the other hand, was cool and indif-
ferent. He took more interest in watch
ing the nurse prepare the instruments
and sutures than he did in his wound.
Gee whiz!" he said. 1t surely takes
a lot of things to fix a little cut. |
wish you fellows would hurry up and
fix this thing up, cause 1 wanter go
home and play"
The lad was placed on the operating
couch and never made a sound while
Police Surgeon Wright took three
stitches in the cut.
"Thank you, very much" said the lad
as he walked away. 1T didn't hurt a
Bit"
