On Friday evening of last week
about severty-five friends and mem.
bers of the Free Baptist Ladies Socie-
ty met at the home OF Rev. and Mrs.
j. j. Tatum and spent very pleasant
evening.
Early in the evening the chronicles
of the society were read and approved.
These articles gave the statement how
and for what purpose each one had
raised their portion of the funds, put
into poetical form, and furnished much
amusement for all present.
After much merriment luncheon
was served of sandwiches, cake and
hot chocolate, and at late hour each
departed for home, with the prayer
in their hearts of long live the good

The salient points of the new law,
being put into effect now, are as fol-
lows.
General control is vested in a board
at Washington, consisting Of the Sec
rotary of the Treasury and Comptrol-
Ter of Currency and five other men,
bers, appointed by the President. Two
of these must be expert bankers, but
none shall have any bank affiliations
or own bank stock while they hold Of
fee.
The country will be divided into
from eight to twelve reserve regions,
in each of which will be established
a regional reserve bank The capital
stock of these regional banks will be
made up by the banks in the region
entering Each National bank must
enter or surrender its charter. Each
bank entering must subscribe six per
cent of its capital and surplus to make
up the capital. State banks may also
enter if they bring reserves up to the
requirements of National banks and
submit to National inspection. The
capital of the regional reserve banks
must be not less than 100000, and
should it be that six per cent of the
capital stock of the banks in the dis
trict does not make up this amount
individuals may subscribe, no one in
excess of $4,000.
The regional reserve banks will do
business only with banks, save in
bonds, gold and bills of exchange.
One-half the earnings of the regional
banks, above a six per cent dividend
on stock, goes to make up a reserve,
and when this amounts to 40 per cent
surplus additional earnings go to the
National treasury. The other half of
the net earnings go to the government
as a franchise tax. These banks will
be controlled by six directors named
by the member banks, and three
named by the Federal board, and each
will have one member on a reserve
board to meet at Washington.
These regional reserve banks will
have gradually shifted to them most
of the reserves now carried in the re-
serve cities. Also the government
moneys will be deposited in them
