so between each section. The troops.
however, will move as they arrive, so
that the regiment will reach the de-
mobilization camp in three separate
sections. This will prevent the APP

USE FEW CHECKS IN FRANCE
Bankers In That Country Are Urging
More General Use Of System
Used In United States.

Bank checks are used to a very
small extent in France. The system
Of paying bills by check SO well known
in the United States is hardly known
at all in France. Practically all trans
actions there are settled by passing
bank notes from hand to hand.
The Banque de France, writes Unit
ed States Commercial Attache G.. w.
A. Veditz from Paris, is urging more
general use Of checks, and in q pam
phlet just issued, the difficulties of the
present French system are pointed
out-the risks of error in counting.
the risks of loss and Of theft, and
particularly the surcharging Of the
fiduciary circulation Of the country
by the fact that most everyone carries
about in his pockets either a few
thousand or a few hundred francs,
representing for the whole of the coun-
try a sum well up in the billions Of
francs, which is dead capital, unem.
ployed. Then follows full descrip-
ton of the use Of checks as known In
America-opening Of the account, is
suance of check books, correct form
of checks, etc. One feature described
III the pamphlet is somewhat different
from the American method: In order
to protect adequately the drawer Of a
check that is to be sent through the
mails to another city, and therefore
subject to special risk Of loss, the
drawer can trace across the face of
the check two parallel lines (barres
transversales), by which sign, under
the terms Of the new law, the check
can be made negotiable only at
bank, which bank becomes responsible
for any payment to a wrongful holder.

new PARK IS CREATED
First National Playground East
Of Mississippi River.
Five Thousand Acres Of Rugged Noun.
talns In Maine Presented to Uncle
Sam by the Owners. ,%Jl r..

President Wilson, at the instance of
Secretary Lane Of the department Of
the interior, has created by proclama.
ton the Sieur de Monts National
monument on Mount Desert Island,
Maine. BY this act he enables the de-
partment of the interior to realize its
longtime purpose to extend to the peo-
pie In the east of the United States the
benefits of the national parks service.
The new national playground Is al
ready known to many thousands for Its
majestic beauty. 1t embraces more
than 5000 acres Of rugged mountain,
directly south of Bar Hafbor. In fact,
its northern boundary lies within a
mile of that famous resort. On the
east 1t touches the Schoonerhead
road. On its south it approaches with
in a mile of Seal Harbor. 1t lies less
than a mile northeast of North East
Harbor. 1t is surrounded, in short, by
a larger summer population.
This superb area, already widely
celebrated for its historical associa-
LAOuS dS wen dS ltS SOIlAIuAAAh6 bSNosSS
includes four lakes and no less than
ten mountains. The lakes are Jordan
pond, Eagle lake, Bubble pond and
Sargent Mountain pond. The Bowl lies
just outside the boundary line.
The mountains, several Of which are
widely celebrated, are Green Mountain
summit, Dry mountain, Pickett noun
tain, White Cap, Newport mountain,
Pemetic mountain, the Tryad, Jordan
mountain, the Bubbles and Sargent
mountain.
The lands included in the Sieur de
Monts national monument have never
formed part Of the public domain,
but, through the patriotism and gener-
osity Of the present owners, known
collectively as the Hancock County
Trustees of Public Reservations, are
presented to the United States. The
trustees have been represented in the
