OLD NORTHERN LEAGUE

eddie" Collins

In the March number of the Base
ball Magazine the feature article is
the life story of Eddie Collins, the
prince of second basemen. His
Northern League experience is thus
described
at was in 1906 that he (CoHins)
first began to play baseball for
money, and his first opportunity led
him to that oddly constructed league
in Vermont and vicinity, now de-
funct, which at one time boosted
such stars as Ed Reulbach and Dick
Rudolph.
professional baseball beckoned

polls of Plattsburgh, where salary
of some $40 week was promised
the great Columbia star.
"Plattsburgh had one OF the worst
teams in baseball history, and Col

any means. He played about fifteen
games, as near as | can remember.
and lost thirteen of these, he says.
Affairs were in bad way and pros

that all our troubles would vanish

that would surely crowd the grounds

be losers. Some of us debated this
question but found it too uncertain

VERMONT SAVINGS
BANKS
Their Growth and Strictly

Everybody who uses savings
bank as a place where his or her
little savings may be deposited al
ways has one thought uppermost in
banks will my deposit be most likely
to be absolutely safe?
No one thinks of any Vermont
bank as otherwise than safe, but
somehow or other there are ear
marks tending to show that the de-
posting public has discriminating
mind. The very safest bank is
none too safe for the person who is
laying away mis- hard earned savings
against a rainy day. He may have
hard luck and need what he has
placed in the bank and SO he weighs
| with the greatest care all the evil
dence tending to aid him in selecting
| the safest of the safe banks.
He studies very carefully the
characteristics of the managers of
| the different banks and isn't entire
| ~ satisfied unless he can ascertain
| positively as to the success of those
| managers in their own private bust
| ness affairs.
He wants to know that their
| habits are irreproachabIe; that
they never speculate in their own
| unrestricted have none of the
gambling instinct, else they may
possibly be tempted by high rates
of sinterest to manage the bank
| funds rather with reference to large
interest returns than to absolute safe
ty OF principal.
Now, If the above reasoning il
correct, it is fair to conclude thai
a bank which so far stands the test,
of public scrutiny that its deposits
are the largest in the world in
