How to Wash Windows.


Strange as II may seem. there Is o
right and wrong way to wash win
dows, and as this operation is usually
dreaded. the following method will
doubtless be appreciated. as IL saves
both time and labor. Choose a dull
day, or at least time when the sun
Is not shining on the windows. for
when the sun shines on the window II
causes Is to be dry streaked. no matter
how much 1t Is rubbed. Take q paint
er's brush and dust them inside and
out, washing all the woodwork inside
before touching the glass.
The latter must be washed slowly in
warm water diluted with ammonia-do
not use soap. Use a small cloth with a
pointed stick to get the dust out Of the
corners: wipe dry with a soft piece Of
cotton cloth-do not use linen as 1t
makes the glass linty when dry. Polish
with tissue paper or old newspaper.
You will find that this can be done in
half the time taken where soap Is
used. and the result will be brighter
windows.

RESERVE BANK CHANGE.
MORE CARE ORDERED IN DES-
IGNATI0N OF INSTITUTIONS.
Controller Murray Issues Circular
Dealing With the Subject
to Examiners.

Controller Murray Is today sending to
bank examiners an important circular
relating to national bank reserves. 1t is
as follows:
Heretofore 1t has been the practice OF
the controllers office TO approve without
question all requests of country banks for
the designation OF a reserve city bank as
a reserve agent without any consideration
OF the question as to whether or not the
reserve city bank to be designated was in
satisfactory condition.
This perfunctory practice has resulted
in the designation of some national banks
as reserve agents when the controller
unsatisfactory condition.
Hereafter the controller will per-
sonally scrutinize all applications for
designation as reserve agents before
they are approved. and the approval of
all requests for designation of reserve
city banks as reserve agents which are
not In a satisfactory condition will be
denied. or at least delayed until the in
structions Of this Office have been COM
piled with and the affairs OF the re
serve city bank in question placed in
an entirely satisfactory condition.
Authority for Action.
The authority for this action Is con-
ferred by section 5192. U. s. r. g..
which provides In part that a certain
portion Of the reserve required to be
held by national banks may consist of
balances due an association from asso-
Citations in certain designated cities
approved by the controller Of the cur
rency.
THE procedure will be that requests
OF country banks for the designation of a
reserve city bank as a reserve agent
will go directly to the desk Of the chief
OF division of reports. who will make an
investigation as to the condition of the
reserve city bank in question and attach
a memorandum Of that condition, to-
gether with his recommendation. sending
1t to the controller for either approval or
disapproval
This change in administrative methods
will be of more interest to reserve city
examiners than the examiners working
in 'so-called' country districts. In this
connection all reserve city examiners are
requested to make such recommendation
In the premises as they may consider
proper at the time OF each examination
Of q reserve city bank.
This change In administrative methods
should be called to the attention OF each
Of the reserve city banks by the examin-
ers to which they are accredited"
