Advice to Boys and Girls

Save yonr pennies and send them to
the Hyde Park Savings Bank.
That Bank receives either pennies,
dimes or dollars.
Why?
Because it wishes to encourage the
Children to be frugal and to have little
bank account of their own, even though
the initial deposit is the smallest possible
sum.
Children who commence an account
on penny, a nickel, or dime, often
grow into capitalists later on.
The way to become a capitalist is to
commence now to save the pennies.

Crosbyton's chief attorney, said
today:
All of Crosbyton's conten-

highest courts in Texas. The
Court of Civil Appeals at ANA

in accordance with that of the
Supreme Court.
The most important question
answered was whether the old

in the five miles of the center of
the county, it would take a two
thirds vote to move it to Cros-
byton, although the Court
House and Jail and all the
houses at Emma were outside
the five-mile radius. The Su-
preme Court now rules that the
plat is not the County Seat and
consequently a majority of the
voters will move the County
Seat. Crosbyton had a big ma
iority.
Theother questions were as to
the certificates which designated
the center Of the county. The
Supreme Court held that the one
issued in 1910 should govern.
and not the one issued m 1891.

ly.
In presenting these figures to the
Academy of Moral and Political Sci
ences he said that he considered 1t
probable that the war would continue
seven months from August /.
Accordingly the five greater powers
engaged we're committed to an expen.
diture Of $1,000, 000, 900. Each OF the
smaller states, including Japan, will
have expenses of $500, 900, 900 to $780,.
600, 600 to meet.
NJ. Leroy-Beaulieu continued:
"One might say that the war will
cost the fighting powers roughly So
900. 900, 1000 to 10000, 000, 900.
These figures, which do not take
into account the losses OF revenues
during hostilities, will be met, first,
by the issuance Of notes against the
accumulated gold in the government
banks; second. by the issuance OF
short term treasury bonds to which
all governments are having recourse
during the war, and third. by delaying
payments for military necessities.
"The larger part OF the savings OF
the world will be absorbed by the TAX.

Maxlms for German Soldiers.

According to Harry Hansen, CORE.
spondent of the Chicago News, these
ten maXims have been laid down for
the German soldiers:
No soldier can lead who has not first
learned TO obey.
The character Of the discipline In
an army augments or weakens its nu-
merical strength.
A soldier in%suficiently fed may be
overcome without cours to the
sword.
Courage Is worth more than cohorts
The bravery and resource'ulness OF
an officer inoculates u thousand men,
A soldier should wish to teach the
enemy. not learn from him.
A good soldier defeats rather than
reviles the enemy
The soldiers worst enemies are pre-
sumptuousness and pride.
