Perhaps no new enterprise in this section has enjoyed
a more rapid growth, nor proven a more signal success from
the very beginning. than the Stockmens State Bank Of
Corota. Starting in bust ess in this undeveioped field Of
banking May 9TH, 1913, with total deposits of $34, 395. 4S the
books OF this financial concern showed on June 4, 1915 total
deposits OF $17i.75l.65.
In this issue will be found a group of officers and d-
rectors Of this banking concern, whose wise management
and careful direction have brought the institution up to its
present state Of prosperity. A few remarks about the re-
sources and business experience of these men follows:
II. b. Jones, President and director, is too we'll known
in New Mexico banking circles to make necessary an argyll
ment to prove his ability and success in this line. AS a
testimony Of this fact, he holds the presidency of the follow
ing banking houses: First National Bank, Tucumcari, First
National Bank Santa Rosa, Torrance County Saving Bank
e .I"".. :, -Ai - -, -. I'D S~.i.,. ~ = Toy,
N. NJ. Added to his natural ability as a fnancier is an ex-
perience of fifteen years in the banking business.
The Vice President of the Stockmens State Bank is
A B. Mcdonald, who also exercises the powers of Director.
He has important connections with several o her banks Of
the country, and mo e thar twenty years has MIR. Mcdonald
been Unidentified with the stock business Of this state, max
ing him a valuable member of a concern which caters
especially to the financial needs of the stockmen of this
section.
8. McCamant, another of the county's foremost
stockmen holds the position of director in this bank. His
reputation in progressive and businesslike management Of
his own affairs inspires confidence in the minds Of outsiders,
rs has well been demonstrated in the enviable record which
this bank has made.
Completing this efficient group Of managers is the
Cashier, L. VI. Brickley, whose controlling interest desig-
mates him as a Director. More than six years of successful
banking in the State Of New Mexico stand to his credit.
Coupled with a wide acquaintance among the stockmen of
the state is an intimate knowledge Of their needs and an
earnest desire to extend every accommodation consistent with
good business and substantial banking.
We predict a continued and steady growth for this
progressive banking concern, and the rapid development
of this section insures a growth even more phenomenal than
the prosperity of the past few months attests.

Stopped Printing Forged Pool
Room Tickets on the
Horse Races.
USED A MINIATURE CAMERA
Early Acquaintance With Crooks and
His knowledge Of Human Nature
Have Helped Him to Success
and to the Establishment
Of Big Business.
By OSBORN MARSHALL.

iCopyrght, Mcclure Newspaper Syndicatc)
1t was in the good old days Of the
early nineties when horse racing -four
ished under a kindler law in New
York than 1t does today that Tom
Eagan had the distinction Of being Otti-
Cial stationer and printer to the book
makers and pOOlroOms Of the city. He
supplied them with pencils and pads,
blank books, ink and record books and
did whatever printing their business
called for He it was who printed the
colored tickets issued to those who
bet on the races in the poolrooms or
on the track. These tickets, which
were filled in at the time of the bet
ting, served as record Of the transac-
ton. and in case the bettor was lucky
he received his winnings on presenta-
ton of the ticket.
Toms business with the poolrooms
and bookmakers had thriven and it
seemed that the neat little profit from
printing the TICKETS would continue SO
long as Tom Eagan continued to run
his printing presses.
One day, however, Mr. Eagan got
word that there were counterfeiters at
work. Fake tickets were being print
ed and filed out to duplicate Eagan's
tickets, and every once in while win
nings went to a holder Of the fake
ticket instead of to the real winner.
So between Mr.. Eagan and the pool
room operators a new system had to
be devised. Thereafter tickets were
printed in several colors, according to
the number of the ticket. That is, all
tickets numbering between one and a
hundred should be pink, all between

AS TO DIRT AND DISEASE
Words Have Been Considered Synony
nous, but Science Has Proved
the Contrary.

Fathers and mothers lucky enough
to have both boys and girls know how
clean the girls keep themselves and
how the boys disregard dirt. From
earliest childhood the little girls
hands and face are washed, and she
evades dress stains, combs her hair
and tries to look nice. But every
normal boy, up to the age of fourteen,
revels in dirt and looks forward to the
Saturday night bath with virtuous con.
tempt or dread. But boys do not suf.
fer infectious diseases as much as
girls. This was brought out in an in
vestigation made of 5000 children Of
all ages and sexes. We requested the
mothers themselves to report what
diseases their children had had. Girls
had had more infections than boys Of
the same age. This goes to support
the modern view that dirt and disease
have no necessary relation. 1t is not
the dirt boys revel in that does harm,
1t is the germs in other peoples
bodies that should be dreaded The
girls encounter infection more than
the boys because they are more so
cable, meet other children more, and
associate with them more intimately
than boys do"-Doctor Hill.

COURTESY On TELEPHONE
No Reason Why It Should Be Forgot.
ten Because One May Be
in Hurry.

81 thought the telephone was most
informal instrument" objected one
girl to another who had spoken of tel
ephone etiquette.
etiquette" said the other, is sim.
ply courtesy, and naturally one can be
as courteous over the telephone as
anywhere else, but how many Of us
are?"
1t certainly is exasperating to be
given a wrong number; but to speak
in sharp, angry tone to the person
who answers the phone under such
circumstances is as unjust as it is i'm
polite. Instead of rudely requesting
him to ring off" you should say, 81
beg your PARDON as if YOU really
meant it.
Many women have an eXasperating
way Of asking, "WhO is thiS?" when
someone answers their call whose
voice they do not recognize. Always
ask for the person you want to speak
to, and mention who wants her.
In talking to business people be
brief as possible, for their time is
valuable. Girls who have the tele.
phone habit should be made to realize
that it is most embarrassing for en-
ployees to be called to the phone dur.
ing business hours unless the message
is very important, and that an en-
ployer is not pleased, to say the least,
when he sees his clerks wasting his
time talking social matters over the
telephone.
Don't impose upon your friends
good nature by telephoning from
house or office without Offering to pay
for the call. Above all else, when you
phone "cut it short" 1t Is difficult to
realize that pleasure can be had from
gossiping into hole in the wall, but it
is temptation to many. Say what
you have to say and get through with
it. Don't keep the wire occupied with
aimless chatter when, perhaps, it is
urgently needed for an important mes
sage.
