Men are queer. Wouldn't there be

meals if they had to climb up on a
high stool i'm front of table on whic
there was notablecloth and eat their
meals i'm that fashion? Yet the ma
jority of men when they go to a
restaurant will pick out the high stool
and the feed board with no cloth ON
it In preference to a comfortable chair
with a cloth covered table. A mann
will borrow a chew of tobacco and
most of them set their teeth into a

gnawed off chew Offer him a
piece of pie at home from which his
wife or one of thechildren had taken

off. At home he will not drink out

Lewiston Normal.

The joint committee Of the Senate
and House, appointed to investigate
the educational institutions of the
State, made very careful investiga-
ton and as a result accorded high
praise to the Lewiston State Normal.
The report relative to the Lewiston
Normal was i'm part as follows:
Your committee made a careful i'm
vestigation of the needs of the Lewis
ton State Normal School, the charac-
ter of the educational work being
done and the training department, and
we found that the institution at the
present time is working within the
provisions of its charter. Under the
efficient supervision of George ii.
Black, President, the Lewiston State
Normal School has obtainedd high
standing, its graduates being placed on
a level with those of normal schools
in other states AS to the standing
of the Lewiston Normal as a State
institution apart from that of a To-
cal school, we found, basing our fig
ures ON the enrolment of last semes-
ter, that the total number of students
doing normal work with the intention
of becoming teachers to be 277, with
80 additional students doing special
work; of these 277 students, Ill, or
40 per cent, gaveLewiston as their
home, lis, or approximately AZ per
cent, reside in the State outside OF
lewiston, and 81 or Is per cent, came
from other states. We recommend an
appropriation for the Lewiston State
Normal School of 500, 1900 90 for the
biennium.

Adopt a
Plan

A definite plan is the foundation
OF success in saving.
1t doesn't make much differ
ence what the plan of saving is,
SO long as it's systematic. Some
people never spend the dimes
they get-they put them in a con-
venient home savings bank.
Some men shave themselves
and drop into the bank the money
they would have to pay the bar
Der. Others walk to the office
and save the carfare.
You can select any plan which
suits you. Regularity in your
saving is the essential thing.
One dollar opens an account
and starts your savings earning
