RESULTS OF THE
INSURANCE SUSPENSION

The people of Kentucky have so
long regarded fire insurance as a mat
ter of course that it is difficult for
them to understand what the absence
of it will mean to the State and ISIS
business. Fire insurance is closely
interviewer with the business fabric,
being the basis of commercial credit,
and suspension of the insurance com
oanies because of the enactment of
the Glenn-Greene law will have serio-
ons and far-reaching effects. There
was a similar suspension in Missouri
last year because of the enactment of
the enactment of obnoxious laws they
naming out until the Objectionable
features were nullified by the action
Of the State officials, on the insist
ence of the business interests. The
principal effects of the suspension
there are summarized as follows:
Restriction of commercial credits
by wholesalers, jobbers and manufac-
turers.
cages, and other investments depend
ent upon the protection of fire insur-
ance for their security.
Inability to secure loans from the
banks on bills of lading and ware
house receipts because they could not
be accompanied by the usual fire in
surance certificates.
Removal from the State and diver
sion of shipments of grain, cotton,
whiskey, tobacco and warehouse
goods requiring insurance protection.
Cessation of building activities,
throwing thousands of workmen out
of employment, with similar effects
upon workmen in building material
and allied lines.
Fire insurance agents deprived of
their commissions and livelihood.
Heavy losses suffered by property
owners whose buildings and goods
were destroyed by fire without in
surance protection.
State given a bad name throughout
the country as hostile to business in
terests.
Because of this and other results
OF the insurance shortage, the bust
ness interests of the State finally
forced action by the State authorities,
which resulted in compromise under
which the insurance companies were
enabled to resume business with
safety.

SWOLLEN FORTUNES AND
THE ABSENT EMPLOYER

In the trend of events today there
are traces of a revolution as radical
in it's change in some respects as that
wrought in the bloody days of the
Commune in France. The people
then seemed to tire of prosperity, and
the very luxuriance of the age arous-
ed some of the people when they saw
others enjoying what they did not en-
JOY. Then came the outburst of the
Commune
This revolt against royalty suggests
the present revolt against wealth and
the fragrant display of luxury follow
ing the introduction of the automo-
bile. The wealthy are swept by
throwing dust in the eyes of the pc
destrians, and it takes something
more than human nature can bear to
see sons and heirs of men who Great
ed great wealth riding about in auto
mobiles, while the sons of the men
who helped create that wealth walk
in humber stations.
This is the viewpoint of the man
who walks, but once in the automo-
bile, all seems different Swollen
fortunes placed in the hands of young
men unprepared for contact with the
life and activities that had created
the same fortunes, cause them to act
upon the impulse that usually comes
the heir of a fortune-to reverse at
once the very policies and broad spir-
it that created the wealth handed to
them. Some seem to feel that the
mere possession of money entities
them to considerations that others do
not possess. The old foxhound en-
ployer whose genius created bust
ness enterprise and kept him in
personal touch with his men, was well
come to his prosperity and knew lit
tie of strikes-but the absentee en-
ployer and the absentee landlord are
popular targets for agitators who aim
at quick results-"Let's Talk 1t Over"

THE COMMERCIAL BANK STARTS
A CHRISTMAS CLUB
Very Popular Form ct Saving-Oper.
ated BY Newl.1 Patented System

ated BY Newl.4 Patented System
BY its adoption of the Christmas
Savings Club, the Commercial Bank
of this city has proven it's right to a
place among the most progressive
ranks OF the country. This Club
gives everybody q. chance to save
regularly, for the bank desires to
encourage saving and is willing to
accept small amounts. Even boys
and girls are invited to become mem
bers, for it is a well-known fact that
the saving habit needs to be fostered
in this country. Once the youthful
mind realizes how really easy it is to
save and how pleasant it is to have
money in bank, the saving habit will
become life long.
Many men and women, whether
their incomes are large Or small, find
lit difficult to get ahead" financially.
They postpone the time when they
will start saving to provide for the
rainy day because they never seem
to have enough spare money to start
bank account. The Christmas Club
is great Leneft to the people in this
way, for they don't need any more
capital to get started than the first
small payment, and after all, the start
is the inportant thing
Inc Club opens week of December
eSth and runs for fifty weeks, so that
each member receives check in time
for Christmas shopping. When pay
ments are made regularly the bank
allows interest on the account, which
is always an encouragement to saw
ing. ~
A number of plans are offered and
members may select one or more OF
them. In the uniform classes one may
pay CSC, SOC, S1OO or $500 weekly,
the totals amounting respectively to
$3.50. $500, $4,000 and $4,000. An
other way is what is known as the
progressive class, in which the pay
ment increases every week. One of
these classes starts at &C., next week
4. and so on. The two cent progress
i've Club natures at $3.50. Then
there is a &C. progressive Club matur-
ing at $63.75. These progressive
Clubs may be reversed, starting at
the highest amount first and finishing
with the lowest. The sc. reducing
class starts at $3.50 and works down
to &C., while the &c. starts at $1.00
and comes down to &c. as the last
payment.
Regular Dank books are not needed
in carrying the Christmas Club &C
counts. The Commercial Bank is u.s.
ing a patented card system, in which
the record of payment is made by
punching cards. This not only gives
the depositor a receipt, but also
shows exactly how much has been
paid in to date, and does away with
any possibility of error.
This attractive method of saving
has proven most popular.

The Golden Rule our motto true
For days of Aud Lang Syne.
Closing Ode
(Air: Home, Sweet Home.")
We've finished our labors, the parting
has come,
And each of our Brothers now goes
to his home;
And our voices blending, we now will
depart,
In perfect love. giving each note from
the heart.
Each duty accomplished. each Broth
er content,
Oh, thus may we ever our friendship
cement;
May Charity, Justice and BrOtherly
Love
At last lead us all the TO Grand Lodge
