The Farmer and
His Bank Ac-
count.

The farmer, as much as
any other business man re-
quires the services of a
bank, if he manages his
farm in a systematic way.
While he may have no
! need for a complete set of
books in which to keep a
record of every transaction
made, yet, during the course
Of a year he must pay out
large sums of money for
various purposes, and a rec
ord for future reference is
highly important.
Merchants may fail to give
a receipt for cash, a neigh
Dor may not recall the pay
ment of money owed, but
the farmer who pays his OBJ
legations by check has writ
ten evidence of such pay
ments which any court must
recognize. In the sameway
he has a record of moneyre-
ceived, by deposit entries
on his bank book.
To the farmer who desires
such a record for his bust
ness, we extend an invita-
ton to open an account.

Judge Palmer explained that he could
permit no other verdict to stand. in view
of the testimony.
You have a right to your opinion re-
torted Cooney. still obdurate, but you are
not the keeper of my conscience.
Finally, however. the verdict was writ

and is still being carried on. but more
extensive work in this direction will
undoubtedly be done through the ef-
vention Of Accidents. which il now be-
ing formed
This association proposes to adopt
some measure by which 1t will reach
and teach" all the children in the Dis
trict of Columbia. 1t proposes to i'm
press upon the children the necessity
of using care in the street and will
urge them. probably. to try to spread
the gospel of caution.
Little Talks on Safety.
One plan which has been proposed in
the reach and teach" scheme is that
Of having a canvass made of all the
schools in the District by a committee
interested in safety work-probabl bly,
wonderland having FIVE or ten minute
talks made in each grade. Following
these talks little placards would be
distributed to the children which would
urge them to use care whenever on
the streets. whether as pedestrians or
vehicle drivers.
AS there are nearly $1,000 children
in the public schools Of the District 1t
seems apparent. say those interested
in the street safety movement that
this would be one Of the biggest under
takings which such q society could
execute. Besides these children who
will be directly impressed in this man.
ner it is believed that they in turn will
talk with their parents and friends
about street safety and thereby create
a large indirect interest in the move
ment.
Already the teachers in nearly all the
public schools have given talks to their
children on street safety and that
many Of the youngsters have been greatly
impressed seems apparent from the man.
ner in. which they cross the streets and in
which they talk about street safety from
time to time.
Discuss It in Schools.
Some OF the children have written COM
positions on the subject OF street safety
as well as giving talks about 1t in their
schoolrooms. Others have been given
practical lessons in crossing the street by
their teachers. the teachers leading them
across In the proper manner and showing
them to be careful to look both ways.
This is done only in the case of the small
est children, Of course
Besides this. each child in the schools
has been given a blotter with safety
rules thereon. by the Washington Rail
way and Electric Company. These blot
ters with their list Of Don is" have been
very effective it Is said
Then, too, the Boy Scouts are now
studying the safety rules which were is

AS soon as they have completed this
study they will be given an examination
All those who pass will be given button
signifying that they have passed. Those
who show the greatest ability in the
safety teachings will, in turn. instruct
ten of their playmates, and possibly more.
1t is expected that more than 10000 chill
dren will be directly impressed through
this method.
