What Makes a Savings Bank
Safe?

making a deposit OF his or her little
savings, oftentimes his or her all,
naturally does some hard thinking
with reference to the matter OF safe

institutions which parade at the bead
OF their announcements a long list OF
distinguished names, names which
are an ornament, and names OF men
whose association with any Savings
Bank ought to make bank worthy
OF confidence.
Depositors should not be deceived
by these names The names of Cen
eral So-and.So and Hon, So-andSo
and Col. So-and.So do not add to the
safety OF the bank, II they belong to
that class of directors who do not d.
rect
In this connection the Hyde Park
Savings Bank has a word to say. II
is q matter OF common knowledge
that the managers OF this bank have
given to its investments such careful
consideration and scrutiny that in It's
more than twenty.three years OF eXis
tence it has never lost dollar by a
poor note-a record perhaps unpar
alleled in the history of banks Not

we believed we spoke within bounds.
production of the great musical
masterpiece Tuesday night justified
every word that was said in advance
and measured up beyond the eXpecta-
tons Of the most optimistic friends
of the w local musical organiza-
lions. Grand Forks heard the pro-
duction. Judged its merits and gave
it the stamp of n sincere and en-
thusiastic approval.
A word of commentator is not
amiss. inasmuch as these two local
musical organizations have materially

laborcd for weeks to bring the pro-
duction of The Messiah up TO such

people the movement Is slight, while
with others it is marked, but at all

Now here's the most curious part.
If a woman is holding the string when
