BANKS TO REQUIRE
INSURANCE COLLATERAL

New York, April 28-Bank officials
In this city are considering a matter
that has already attracted consider
able attention In Baltimore, namely
the formal and official transfer of the
insurance protection at the time Of
the trAnsfer of title of merchandise
constituting the collateral for loans.
Experience has shown 1T 10 admitted i,
that the companies have not at
tempted to take advantage Of the le-
gal position they at times occupy in
being permitted to avoid their con-
tracts where title to the property
insured has changed. without such
change being noted on the actual
policy covering the risk. But the
fact remains that such contracts can
only be enforced by the grace Of the
company and not as matter Of right.
The situation, 1t Is argued, should
be corrected and the underwriters
amend their form by permitting their
local agents to Issue such certificates
to be binding legally upon their res
pective companies In the absence of

ed that personal reply to each which
he would have been glad to give.
Although he is entirely helpless and
requires constant attention, his condi-
ton is no longer regarded as serious.
For some days there were strong in
dications OF internal injuries and of
nervous arrangement from the shock,
but these bad symptoms have hapDily
disappeared and there is every reason
to expect his complete recovery I'm

bed in a short time. The bandages
will be removed i'm October and he
hopes to resume his preaching within
a couple Of months. That will de-
pend on the ease with which the bones
knit in the shoulder and the rapidity
with which the system recovers from
the shock.

The Telephone Girl,

The telephone girl sits still in
her chair, and listens to voices from
everywhere. She hears all the gos-
zip, she hears all the news; she
knows who is happy and who has
the blues; she knows all our sOr
rows, she knows all our joys; she
knows every girl who is chasing
the boys; she knows of our trou-
blcs, she knows of our strife; she
knows every man who talks mean
to his wife; she knows every time
we arc out with "thc boys; she
hears the excuses each fellow en-
ployS; she knows every woman who
has a dark past she knows every
man who is inclined to be EAST;
in fact, there's a secret beneath
each saucy curl Of that quiet, de-
murc-looking telephone girl. If
the telephone girl told all that
she knows it would turn half our
friends into bittcrest foes; she
could SOW a small wind that would
soon be a gale, cngulf us in trou-
bic and land us in jail; she could
let 90 story which. gaining in
force. would cause half our wives
to sue for divorce; she could get
all our churches mixed up in
