Lumber Jacks and Postal Savings.

OF all semi alternating creatures of
the Maine woods, man probably does
greatest violence to his instincts by the
life he lives in the lumber camps. Weeks
on end in lumber camp may rightly
give him a sense of arrears in good
times and the minute he strikes civili-
zation this sense of arrears may send
him off on spree--eyen in prohibition
Maine.
When the craving man and his pay
come out of the woods, there are a
dozen eager rascals standing ready to
separate the two. It is much like Civ
ing a starving man a plum pudding and
expecting him to save it up judiciously
for dozen desserts.
1t is here that the office safe in the
Y. NJ. @. A. has come into greater and
greater social service; for men leave
their money over night, and then for
day or two, and then for a week or
month, during which time the secre-
taries find opportunity to talk money
with the man, of how TO lay it up for
old age, how to make it count most
for a mans parents, or perhaps how to
start a savings account in one of the
banks.
As the simplest method of safeguard
ing the depositor, the postal-savings
system requires that he do business
solely with the postofliee where he takes
out his account. The department stands
ready to establish postal-sayings agen-
eies in the lumber camps themselves;
but this would not meet the need. Some
scheme of camp deposits with the right
of withdrawal at the gateway postoffice
at Greenville twhere the account would
be opened and the depositors known
would seem to offer solution.
And once the need were thus met in
such radiating district, we might look
for some further adjustment in admin
istration or. if need be, in the law. which
would make the postal-savings service
more adaptable to isolated or migratory
workmen everywhere-make it possible
for the worknen in remote Alabama
coal mine to have the option OF taking
some of their pay in cash and some in
postal savings certificates Or for the
workmen on an irrigation project in the
Or on railroad construc-
ton crew.-The Survey.

Hats Taller, Shoes Longer This Spring


In the fashion department of the
April Woman's Home Companion APP
pears the following fashion news about
shoes and hats for this summer:
"Shoes and hats, whoever would have
thought of combining the two! Yet
both are now so important in their re-
lation to the costume that it seems
quite right to speak of them at the
same time. Each show decidedly new
and pronounced lines for spring; the
hats take the up and down lines that
reach to great height, the shoes long
graceful lines that give the impression
of greater length than we have had in
the past.
In describing the new hats the ma
terials come first. Soft hemp is favored,
though straw braid combined with fab
ries is especially well liked Hats for
general wear are moderately small but
with large head sizes. They still fit
way down on the head. Height is given
i'm the shape and trimming. Brims turn
way up on one side and some crowns
are built higher by masses of tulle.
sand now about the shoes: The lasts
that have long vamps with reeeding
toes have become more fashionable than
ever. They are seen in almost all the
new shoes except those for tramping
and outdoor sports. These are mannish
and rather broad in style and have
spring heels. For other shoes the half
Louis Cuban, and kidney wood-covered
heels are used. Black leather, such as
gun metal. is not as modish as in the
past. the shiny leather taking its place.
Metallic leather which is really patent
leather. is new and popular in gold, sill
yer or light eolors combined with black
in pumps and tango slippers. The satin
slipper is stil favored"

This Is the Opinion of the
Experts at Wash
ington
BANK LOCATIONS
STIR CRITICISM
Choice of Philadelphia Said
to Be a Slap at New
York

Washington, April with the fed
dent Wilson yesterday took the center
of the stage in the currency situation.
Until he names the five members OF the
board which will administer the opera
tiens OF the new law, only the formal
work under it can go ON.
The cities as selected came in for
much criticism yesterday. The passing
over of New Orleans for Dallas and the
selection OF two cities in one state-Ct.
Louis and Kansas Cty-was particular
ly commented upon. So far as Dallas
was concerned, there seems general
opinion that his selection was well war
ranted, because OF the territory involved.
Texas, New Mexico and the southern
committee decided reserve city should
be placed as near the center as possible.
Geograp hically Dallas was ideal and
it was named. Had New Orleans re-
ceiyed the plum, its position at the very
eastern extremity of the zone would
have meant real delay should necessity
for emergency communication or trans
fer of funds have arisen. This, it was
said, was the actual reason for the se-
lection and there was emphatic denial
yesterday of the report that New
Orleans had been turned down because
of the position taken by the Louisiana
senators on the tariff bill.
Kansas City, however, get its plum, it
was freely admitted, through the in
fiuence of Senators Stone and Reed of
Missouri. Reed has his home there and
he was able to enlist Senator Owen of
Oklahoma in aid. Stone has just been
made chairman of the powerful commit
tee on foreign relations and his wishes
have much more weight than heretofore.
But many members of the Senate and
the House were caustic in their criticism,
however, insisting that the Missouri city
had been favored at the expense of pAsl-
yer, which seemed ideally situated geo.
Senator Weeks of Massachusetts,, OF
the Senate banking committee, who was
active in considering the Glass-Owen
bill and finally voted for it, issued
statement yesterday saying he fairly
questioned "the propriety of locating
two banks in the home state of one OF
the members and one in each of the
other members, specially when in two, if
not three, of these cases they are not
the natural location of reserve banks
''The apparent and confessed attempt
10 limit the business which naturally
goes to New York may properly be criti-
.ised not only because it is unfair" said
ne, "but it is so unscientific that in the
end it will not be effective.
"The most severe criticism, however,
IS of the committee tangoing about for
The purpose of asking people if they
wanted reserve bank. OF course the
ocal pride of every community would
develop the same reply, and this has en-
oarrassed the committee so that they
nave authorized twelve banks, very ma
5erially weakening the system by so
ioing and developing a system for which
here was really no demand"

SEARCH FOR FUGITIVE ENDS

Whereabouts of the negro was known
and that he could place him under ar
rest in a short time.
Accompanied by Dunn, Parker and
several deputies, Jaiier Farris went to
the negro suburb Of Henryville, where
according to the Carlisle officials, the
nero wanted here was said to be liv-
| inE, and after surrounding the house
| one OF the officers attempted to gain
admittance. With this there was a
grand rush Of q number OF men on the
inside and in a few seconds, all Of the
exits were blocked by men endeavor
