DEPOSIT GUARANTEE
BILL TO Be SUBMITTED TO The
LEGISLATURE.

Sessment on Capital Stock. Non.

Stock.

OLYMPIA, Jan. ia bill which
VIII be presented to the legislature
rs representing the views of some of
the bankers who do not oppose the
insurance or guarantee of deposits
in state banks of Washington has
been prepared. 1t has been placed
in the hands of the legislative COM
mittee Of the State Bankers Associa-
ton fOr its action.
The bill differs from the majority
OF such propositions in that it pro-
vides for assessments of per cent
on the capital stock of banks, or trust
companies doing a banking business,
inctead of tax on the deposits. A
provision of the bill restricts bank
to deposits in an amount equal to
ten times it's capital stock
Provision also is made in the bill
that the commission shall be COM
posed of five men, four of whom are
officers in banking institutions of
bank examiner is the fifth member
and is eXofficio chairman. The men,
bcrs, other than the examiner, are
to be nonsalaried, provision to be
made for actual expenses while trav-
cling in discharge of the duties Of
| the position and for the expenses of

cidentals.
Institution of the guarantee is to
be UPON the application of ten or
more banks with 81, 100000 or more
combined capital stock. Any bank
or trust company now doing business
that is qualified for membership may
become participant in the guar
antee, while it is made compulsory
for new banks to go into the organ
ization.
An appropriation Of $4,000 is
asked to put the law into effect as
enacted, friends of the measure con-
tending that the expenses may be
met from the interest on the guar
antee fund, which is to be invested
by the Board of Bank Commission
ers.
In the event of failure of bank
the commissioners are to make i'm
r,ediate payment of the deposits, the
money to be refunded to the fund
from the assets Of the bank with in
terest charged on funds SO advanced
at the rate of per cent.
When occasion shall require, the
commissioners are authorized to
make assessments on the capital
stock of banks for the benefit of the
guarantee fund.
Appointment Of receivers is for
bidden to the courts, except on petit
tiOn of the bank examiner acting for
the commissioners, and receivers ap-
pointed are to be the person recon-
mended by the commissioners.
The minutes of the commissioners
are to be accessible only to the Off
GERS of the banks operating under
the provisions of the act
Appointments are to be for terms
of four years, after the first COM
mission has been appointed in such
manner that one vacancy shall be
made annually.

THE HOPE OF THE SOUTH.

When President Taft invited the
Southern whites into the Republican
party he gave and could give no
guarantees that there would be an
equitable distribution of patronage and
plumber. The simple fact is that there
is not now enough Of the substantials
to go round and the South would be
in a minority anyway, and would get
the little end of the benefits Just as
it does now.
The hope of the South is in its own
development first, and in its ability to
join its interests with the West, which
is breaking of from the East on great
questions Of public policy. There is
good reason to believe that the ma
tional census Of 1910 will place the
preponderance Of population and Pc
litical power in the Mississippi valley,
the great heart of the country, and
the South will form large constitu.
ent element of it. We can wait for
that.-New ORLEANS Picayune.

Making Pamphlets of Magazine
Stories

IN these days of many magazines they
! accumulate in large numbers In al
most every household. and it is often
something of a burden to take care
of them and eventually dispose of them.
Where there is a young girl in the fam
lily she will find it a most useful ana
also an interesting work to take charge
of the magazines when the family have
read them and make them into PAM
phlets for the hospitals. If she asks
a few friends to come in some after
noon and help her she will get a good
many of them done in a short time.
The pamphlets are made by cutting
the magazines apart and fastening the
pages of each story or article together
so that each one is a separate little
pamphlet. When people are GONZALES

not strength enough to hold an ordi-

A LTHOUGH there is nothing smart
IN err for school wear than the stiff
turned down embroidered linen
collar with a plain tailor made shirt
waist, still many girls object to the
stiff collar on the ground that it feels
peculiarly uncomfortable after the
transparent bands of lace and net that
are now worn so much with every other
style of waist than the plain tailor
made.
For this reason lace and net collars
are now worn almost as much with the
severe as with the elaborate bodices.
They do not need to bear any special
resemblance to the waist itself. and
may be made of any lace from heavy
Irish to finest valenciennes insertion.
The first mark of a well dressed girl
is her collar. No one could hope TO look
well turned whose collar was too loose
or too low; on the other hand, a collar
too high or too tight is equally bad
style, of course.
A collar to fit well requires five bones,
and after long experimenting it has
been found best to place these bones
straight UP and down, not slanted-two

all the school hats this year are the
large bowl shaped straws trimmed
with only a band of velvet or ribbon
about the wide crown, while in front,
just little to one side, the brim is
caught up by a large double bow of
the ribbon. This sort of shape is COM
paratively easy to find and surely any
girl can tie an effective double loop
bowknot
1t may require one or two lessons to
learn to make ones own straw shape
over wire frame, but once learned this
knowledge wiz be of the greatest serv-
ice all through life. Often and often
there Will arise the necessity of hav
ing hat the exact color of a gown of
peculiar shade-a shade that can be
found only in the most expensive mod
els or perhaps not at all among the
made up hats, and must be made with
the straw which is purchased by the
yard. To cover a good shaped wire
frame with this straw is not a diff
cult task, and after that the addition
of the flower and ribbon trimming is
not likely to prove difficult.
There are two points which it would
be well for the amateur milliner to
bear in mind. One of these is not to
buy too cheap materials. A poor straw
will quickly lose its shape on the first
damp day and the cheaper quality of
flowers will only make the hat look
poor. On the other hand, it is most
short sighted to expend upon the ma
terials of hat the same amount for
which pretty hat all trimmed could
be found at any hat shop. With a,
certain amount of good taste and idea
of the style of the moment a girl can
trim for herself an extremely pretty
school or morning hat. but this hat is
necessarily simple in every detail. To
trim the style of hat that would be in
Keeping with an elaborate afternoon
frock a certain amount of real millin-

can hope to make a really smart dress

There are many girls, however, who,

positive that they never could trim a
hat fit to wear. These girls perhaps
would be astonished beyond measure at
what attractive results they would OBJ

NEW COLLARS FOR SHIRT WAISTS

one in each side. about two inches from

than those in front. and then one at the
back. There are kinds innumerable OF
collar boning, the transparent celluioid
being perhaps best in thin collars. This,
however, requires to be taken out eacn
time the collar or waist is washed, SO
that many girls prefer the kind or bon
ing which comes encased in little tape
cover and can be removed when the col
lar is sent to the laundry and inserted
once more when ii is to be worn.
This last makes the simplest kind OF
collar boning, of course, and can be
procured in any height desired. As IT is
generally only the outside of the collar
which becomes soiled from the coat col
lar. many girls make for themselves
two or three perfectly fitted and boned
collars of net or mousseline de sole and
haste over these the bands of lace or
whatever collar is desired. straight
collar can often be fastened to the foun-
dation simply with little jewel safety
pins at the back. On the whole, how
ever, it is a mistake not to have each
collar a finished thing with buttons and
loops Gas many as five if necessary. for
pins inevitably tear the lace, and with
a little care the buttons can be placed
at Just the right place and will look
far more neat and trim in the end.
