ings Bank and Trust Company
was organized.
To say that in matter OF growth
this institution has out-run every
thing everywhere in the line OF
village savings banks Is to state
a truth which Vermonters every.
where are pleased to talk about.
One OF the large banks of
Toronto. Ontario, has recently
written one OF the officials OF the
Hyde Park bank expressing its
curiosity to know how the
thing was done" Indeed, bank
ers not only in Vermont and
Ontario but elsewhere have been
simply amazed at the growth Of
this bank. They can't see how
it were possible for a little coun-
try village with a population Of
only 423 to show a growth that
has placed the bank so far abe ad
OF all competitors occupying a
similar position as to make it
unique. unprecedented and nota-
BILE as the largest bank in the
world in country village.
The answer is simple and one
word tells the story;-that word
is CONFIDENCE.
The people not only OF Hyde
Park and Lamoille County but
of Vermont generally, from Mas
sachusetts to Canada line, from
the Connecticut River to Lake
Champlain, have come to talk of
the phenomenal growth of the
Hyde Park Bank and were you
to ask Vermonters why they
made their deposits in the Hyde
Park Bank instead of elsewhere,
they would tell you substantially
this: We know the men who
manage that bank; we know they
are painstaking, cautious and
conservative; we know that the
allurements of all those get-rich-
quick schemes which so often
tempt men to sacrifice safety to
principal for hig h rates ofinterest,

ONE TREE BRINGS 500
Single Sugar Pine Yields Enough
Lumber TO Build Suburban House

Lumber to Build Suburban House
Washington, Jan. 31-The govern
ment has received $99.40 in settlement
for a single sugar pine tree which was
cut in trespass in the Stanislaus Ma
tional Forest, in California, and which
yielded more than enough actual lum-
Der to build a good-sized suburban
frame house. The tree scaled 1888
board feet and was valued at 1925 per
thousand feet.
Not many trees contain enough lum-
Der to build a two-foot board walk
nearly two miles long, and this is be-
lieved to be the first case on record in
which single tree felled in a Nation
al Forest was valued at almost 500 on
the stump, although National Forest
timber is frequently sold at consider
ably higher rates.

THE HIGH COST OF CONQUEST

If conqucrer wants tall men to

die for him. But whether he wins or
loses, he cannot expect the next gen.
Grafton to be SO tall; and they are not.
Napoleon only three generations ago
wanted and used the biggest and
strongest men, and they fought and
died for him. Later, Michelet the
great French historian, declared that
by his wars Napoleon had taken al
most five inches from the stature of
the French people. Observers in
France today are noting how small are
the French soldiers compared with the
German and British.--Dr. G. W. Sale

One of the principals in the Winns-

wnen seen yesterday afternoon at the
Columbia hospital:
''I am citizen of Winnsbc" and

sist him in protecting the negro, Jules
Smith, in case an attempt should be
made to take the prisoner from his
custody. I was one of the party
which came to Columbia this morning
to get the negro from the penitentiary.
We did not anticipate serious trouble,
but the sheriff, to be on the safe
side, deputized IL more men when We
reached Winnsboro. There was not an
unusually large crowd inNtoBn.

Somebody whom I did not know
stuck mis- pistol into my face, at tie
height of the affair, and was about to
fire, w. en- l asked him, Why do you
want to kill me?' He lowered his
pistol and mixed with the crowd. I
have no idea how many men were in
the attacking party We were pretty
busy and .adn't time to notice de-
tails. 1t was fearful experience, but
l tried in every way to do my duty"
Mr. Beckham's wound, made by
pistol bullet, which pierced the calf
just below the knee, was dressed at
the Columbia hospital on the arrival
of tie train bringing Sheriff Hood and
Rural Policeman Boulware.
The story of how Sheriff Hood, after
having received four wounds, carried
the negro, Jules Smith, nearly to the
prisoners dock in the Fairfield county
court house at Winnsboro, was
brought to Columbia yesterday by J..
NJ. Stone, special deputy, who was
among the score of officers engaged in
the fg.t. The negro, Mr.. Stone said,
died stt ortly after being dropped by the
sheriff. Mr.. Stone suffered a slight
powder burn about the face.
