CHARACTER

Many people believe that wealth largely the basis
of credit No mistake could be greater The dollar is
only slightly less the basis of credit than the basis
of character.
The fact that character is the basis of credit the
dollar absolutely secondary.
We have known wel-to-do men to whom we
wouldn't Ioan and know many people with very
little property, but with lot of character honest in
dustrious of good judgment, determined d-who will
make good in their promise and their business of what
ever kind.
Never forget that character counts and that put
character first
Perhaps YOU have realized or will some time
that CHARACTER is also the VITAL factor in BANK.

WHAT THE WAR
MOVES MEAN
BY J.. w. I. s

written tor the United Press)
NEW YORK, Oct. S.-Greece in
typical Balkan fashion has been try.
ing to play two sides against each
other. This has resulted in an un
eXpecteA crisis which may have IL seri.
Gus effect upon her future fortunes.
The ministerial characterization
Of Premier V~enizelos and the cabinet
is due to the landing of allied forces
on Greek soil. Greece wants them
near in case Bulgaria attacked Greece,
but the government did not want to
give formal consent to this move, so
that her neutrality might not be COM
promised if Bulgaria kept peace.
Apparently, she technically protest.
ed at the landing, while at the same
time Greek officers assisted in the
work of debarkation.
The premier approved of this euui-
vocal attitude, but King Constantine's
opposition thereto, forced his resigna-
ton: The kings duty now is to find
a premier who al command a major
ity in parliament, but if he is unable
to find such a man, and still persists
i'll ~thwarting Venizelos, then Constan.
tine must be considered as trying to
overthrow the Greek constitution.
Venizelos, a leader of Pan HELEN
ism, wants to me the coast of Asia
Minor and restore to his country the
glories of ancient Greece. This re-
ward he hoped TO get from the allies
for cooperation. But a strong party,
including a majority of the Greek gen.
eral staff, believes that Greco could
not hold this coast. Large garrisons
would be necessary for the subsection
of the Turks, and they feel the task
would be too vast. Therefore, it is
uncertain whether the premier will be
able to dominate the situation.

London, June For the first time
on record Zeppelin in the air has
been destroyed by an aviator in an

young Canadian sub-lieutenant in the
royal navy, who mastered aeroplaning
only this summer, has performed the
feat, and tonight is somewhere with

lies in ruins, sprawled on the roof and

Falling blazing mass after being
struck by the young aviator's bombs,
it's crew of % men were killed, as were
also several occupants Of the orphan
age buildings.
The theory is advanced that this
Zeppelin was the craft which raided
the east coast of England last night,
for the fact that it was in the air
over Belgium, between Client and
Brussels, at 8 o'clock in the morning,
leads to the belief that it was return

MINING NEWS

The paramount event in the north
western mining world is the contro-
versy between the American Smelling
and Refining company and the Her
cules Mining company relative to ore
treatment rates, which has resulted in
an indefinite suspension of operations
at the big lead-silver producer at
Burke, Idaho, the property having
been closed.
Copper men are expecting a greatly
increased activity in the copper mar
ket. New York advices quoted electro
lytic copper at 10 1-S to 10 IL cents.
One telegram stated there is an in
quiry in the market for 100,000,000
pounds of copper metal, probably in
connection with war orders or con-
templated war orders. There is much
jubilation In mining circles over the
improved copper outlook.
The most exciting week ever ex-
perienced in the Joplin lead and zinc
district from an ore market standpoint
closed June 5, with zinc ore having
reached basis price Of SIP ton.
The price sets record for zinc of.
ferings and records an increase of $27
ton over last week, the greatest in.
crease ever made in weeks time. A
year ago zinc sold for $40 ton. The
weeks output valuation was more
than $750,000, or 100000 greater than
ever before.
