before one sentence Of the tentative
draft OF the Currency Bill had been

II Is simply astounding, in view oi
all the circumstances, for any national
banker to assert that the national banks
OF the country are alarmed at the bond
provisions Of the proposed Currency
Bill.
In this hearing last winter before
the Glass subcommittee report bankers

Sol Wextel, OF New Orleans, and Fes-
tus Wade. Of ST. Louis, all advocated
the reiunding OF these Sonds and the
gradual retirement Of the bond secured

fair to the banks and all holders Of

Women. like rabbits, are OF ill-omen TO

in Wales. if pitman meets or sees a
woman on his way TO work he will turn
forebode evil not only to the man himself
but ali his associates. At OswtStry, some
years ago. woman was employed as
messenger BY one of the collieries. and in
the course of her duties met many of the
coiliers on their way to work. The men
immediately told the manager that they
could not run the risk OF ill-luck entailed
in meeting a woman on the way to the

not dismissed.

1t is proposed To extend the idea by
fitting public clocks with large phono-

example, early in the morning the clock
would announce, six O'Clock. Fortune
