Dodging the Forfeiture Rule,

But sometimes the most conscienti-
GUS depositors lose interest on their
savings by withdrawing them at the
wrong time. For example, In many of
the big New York savings banks,
which are among the largest in the
country, the rule is that, on all depos-
its withdrawn prior to an interest-pay-
ing date usually the first of January
and the first Of JULY, the deposition
forfeits all the interest accrued since
the last preceding date. Many OF
these banks pay interest only twice a
year. This ruling may seem harsh,
but the bank officials say that there
are two good reasons for It, One is
that it would require a tremendous
force of clerks to figure out the inter-
est every time a man withdrew
small sum; the other one is that it
encourages the depositor to keep his
money in the bank and let it grow.
At this point the question arises,
What is the depositor to do if he
needs sum of money urgently just
before an interest payment? There
is very simple way out of it and in
the explanation is a hopeful lesson.
Let us assume that the depositor has
put $1,000 on deposit in savings
bank that pays four per cent interest,
with payments January l and July l.
His first interest date is July 1, and
this means that he will get $50 in In
terest II his thousand dollars Is still
on deposit. An emergency arises that
makes 1t imperative for him to have
$500 for twenty days on June 10. IL
he draws this out of the savings bank
he will lose the interest on It for the
six months. What is he to do? He
can take his savings handbook to a
commercial bank, use 1t as collateral,
and borrow the $500. Assume that he
is charged six per cent interest on
this money. This means that it will
cost him about $3.50.
Now If he had drawn the $500 out
Of the savings bank he would have
forfeited SIG in interest. This means
that by following the plan just outlin-
ed he paid only about $3.50 for the
use of the money. Thus he not only
practiced economy but maintained
the integrity of his savings account.
Therefore it is important for the
savings depositor to know Just when
the interest payments in his bank are
made, and not to withdraw money at
times when the interest might be for
feited. This, combined with steady
savings, is the only way to obtain
the big benefits of compound inter-
est.
These figures and calculations are
based on semi-annua1 computations.

AL YET, AS WE COMPOUND THE

Read This From The
saturday Evening
POST For Saturday,
June 18th, 1910.

There are two kinds of interest,
simple and compound. The latter en-
tiers largely into the whole range OF
savings and into the question of how
to increase them.
Simple interest is the interest on
principal only. Take the sum of 500
deposited in a bank that computes in
terest semi-annually. The rate is six
per cent. This means that every six
months the deposit would earn three
dollars. At the end of a year and u
half you would have $109. The work
ing principal has not increased at
all.
NOW take the same sum and put It
out at compound interest at the same
rate. In six months 1t would earn
three dollars and there would be
total OF SOB, but from this time on
the interest would be added to the
principal and become part of It. In
stead of having 800 at work YOU
would have S103. For the next six
months the interest would be $500,
making the principal for the follow
ing interest period $4,000.
Thus, with each interest date, the
working principal is increased by the
addition of the interest earned. Your
principal, in other words, is like a
rolling SNOWFALL that gets bigger all
the time. 49,,
To get the full and beneficial re.
suits of compound Interest not only
must you begin to save but you must
keep steadily at it. When you see the
effects of progressive saving you find
out Just how valuable 1t is to get the
thrift habit.

Crisp Facts Gathered Tn the Realm of Sports
VAUGHAN RULED OUT

Because of that narrow bit of football did not attend college two-thirds of the preceding term can play football this season, the faculty of Howard college has ruled Center Vaughan ineligible.
 Some days ago, as is remembered, on the same ground, the faculty of the Uni versity of Alabama ruled Tackle Burks ineligible.
 Vaughan is a ministerial student. Short ly after Christmas last season he suffered with an affliction of the eyes. It was necessary for him to retire from col lege He has recovered from the eye trouble, and has re-entered college. He is treated by the rules of the Southern h. tercollegiate Athletic association as if he had committed some grieyous sin-as if he was ringer in other words. No blame. of course, can be attached to the Howard faculty. But blame may be attached next season if Howard does not organize a band of fearless and bring about some healthful legislation by an athletic governing body which has, for many seasons, demonstrated it's incom- potency in handling athletic problems in the southern states.
 Do you remember that "one-year' rule? The Age-Herald pointed out the folly of such ridiculous legislation for an en- tire season. That rule was eventually abolished. The association finally real ized the fact that it had done very un- wise bit of legislation. It is hoped that

MEMPHIS MAY
 SELL FRANCHISE

Memphis, September 25.-(Special.)- Whether the Memphis baseball fran chise In the Southern league will be sold to foreign capital controlled by William Grayson, Jr., St. Louis cap italist who owns the Louisville Amer ican association franchise, will prob ably be decided Monday when Presi- dent Coleman of the local club will meet an agent of the St. Louis man for final dicker. Option for President Coleman's interest, amounting to lit- tie more than 50 per cent of the stock, has been given for $S5,O00. 1t is said, which would place a total valuation at the same rate of the local fran chise at $69.o00 approximately for the party owning the club completely. This is believed to be the high water mark ever entertained for any baseball hold ing in the Southern league. The price also averages $690 per share. Mem phis baseball stock, it Is recalled sold for $50 per share, par, a few years back
 Billy Joyce, time infielder, will manage the club if Grayson buys. Southern leaguers are alarmed at the sale. owing to possibility of a break in the circuit for the probable Amer ican Association expansion.

FOOTBALL EXPERT DISCUSSES
 CAUSE AND EFFECT OF NEW RULE
BY COACH DoNNELLY OF HOWARD

1 The rules do away with the 15-yard penalty formerly imposed on an illegal forward pass and now practically make the penalty five yards as the rules provide that the man who passes the ball shall be five yards back of the line of scrim- mage and the ball shall be brought back to the point where the pass was made after an illegal pass.
 | Cause: 1. The seeming unwillingness of teams to use the forward pass with the attendant loss of 15 yards and the desire | of the rules committee to see the forward | pass used more.
 Effect. 1. A much more general use of the forward pass on the first and second downs Is probable.
 Offensive Side Not to Interfere With Defensive on a Forward Pass The offensive side is now penalized for interfering with the men on the defense who are protecting themselves against forward pass except in a bona fde at- tempt to reach the ball on the pass. Cause: 1. The desire to equalize the strength of the offense and defense on forward pass.
 Effect: l. Strengthens the defense to counterbalance a strengthened offense on forward pass.
 No Interference on Kicks for 20 Yards
 The committee has made a zone of 20 yards beyond the line of scrimmage in which zone man of the offensive side may not be interfered with by the de- fense in attempting to recover a kick or get to the receiver of punt.
 Cause: l. Likelihood of injury to an unprotected player intent on getting the ball on a short kick caused by the hard blocking of a player on the defensive side.
 2. To strengthen the offense on a short kick and counterbalance the weakness caused by the imposing of the rule pro- viding that kick must go 20 yards in order that the offehse may take ad- vantage of the so-called onside kick rule.
 Effect: 1. Makes the onside kick of doubtful efficiency at present. but with possibilities of great development in the future.
 2. Ought to materially help the end In work down the field and make 1t easier for them to cover kicks
 Forward Pass Crossing Line Anywhere

1t will again wake up, and wipe out al such legislation as that which rendered Burks. Tuscaloosa boy, who has at tended but one college in his life, and Vaughan, ministerial student, who wal so unfortunate as to suffer with troubl1 with his eyes, ineligible.

TAPLEY KLEIN HEADS
 PREDESTINARIAN


 Anniston, September 25.-(Special)-4 Tapley Klein of this city, who direct, the team last year from his position quarterback, was elected captain of tl football squad of the Alabama Presb terian college, which Is carried throud Q daily practice routine by Coach Hanpj and which is showing up in excell shape in the practice games that hal been played against the scrubs.
 The tentative schedule of the team as follows: Jacksonville Normal colled here, October 1; Southern university. he'd October T; Blountsville Agricultural cd lege. there, October 15; Albertville Al ricultural college. there, October 22; M| rion Military institute, here, October Chattanooga University. here. Novemh| B.; Southern University at Greensbod November 12; Birmingham college, thel November 1s; Selma Military acaden| here. November 25, Thanksgiving.
 Probably the most interesting of the| games will be those with the Southe| university team, which Is coached by Dd Till Pratt. as in the meet two pupils Dr. Pollard of the University of Alabarj will be pitted against one another, bo| Pratt and Hannon having won their {" under this veteran of the game.
 Coach Hannon has not yet compiled the winnowihg from the recruits who s| trying for varsity places and the exs| lineup of the Predestinarians in their itial meet Is not known. It is probab| however. that the team will be selectI from the following men: Tackles, Leai and Freeman; guards, Anderson, Und( wood, Keener, Lomg and Crosby; en@ Allen, Ford, Gladden. and Haynes; cd ter, Archibald; quarterback, Klein. cd tain. Brown and Haynes; backs, Bak{ Kidd, P. Archibald, Wilson and Undd wood.

With the five-yard zone on each side of the center over which the ball could not pass and the ball may now be passed over the line anywhere providing that the man who makes the pass is five yards back of the line of scrimmage. Cause: 1. To do away with squabbling on the field caused by the five-yard zone on either side of the center. ?. To make the forward pass a more effective play thereby tending to increase It's use.
 Effect l. Helps forward pass possibil- ities and gives opportunity for great de- velopment of the play.
 2. Makes the duty of the officials easier somewhat.
 Twenty-ynrd Zone on n Forward Pass
 A forward pass may not be made un- der the new rules which goes 20 yards be- yond the line Of scrimmage before being touched
 Cause: 1. To limit the strength of the forward pass play to counterbalance the supposed additional effectiveness given 1t.
 Effect: 1. Enables the secondary de- fense to protect against forward pass better so as to cope better with the ad- ditional strength given to play by the ability of the offense to pass the ball over the line anywhere.
 Flying Tackle
 The rules committee has passed the rule saying that in making 8 tackle a player must have one foot, at least, on the ground, thereby supposedly doing away with the flying tackle and has imposed a penalty of five yards for violation of this rule.
 Cause: l. The death of Arthur Chris tain of the University of Virginia is sup posed to have been caused by a flying tackle
 Effect: The effect of this rule will be extremely doubtful as flying tackle is only used in cases of emergency or so as to prevent a man from making gain of from b or 20 yards or more and the im- position of a five-yard penalty will prob ably not deter many players from making flying tackle under those circum- stances, A good flying tackle hardly oc- CUTS during a football season so that it is doubtful whether this rule will have any effect whatever on the game as played this fall.
