you AND YOUR BANK ACCOUNT

When the banker accepts your ac-
count, and gives you a pass book and
a check book, he has the right to ex-
pect certain things from you, as you
have the right, legally and morally to
expect certain things from him.
In the first place, he has the right to
expect profit from your account.
Banking is an expensive business. It
costs certain amount to handle every
check that passes through the bank,
and every account should contribute a
portion to the expenses Of the bank,
however small. When your banker
asks you to keep a certain balance, he
is merely asking his right to a profit
from your account. It is easily to be
seen that if you keep small balance,
say ten dollars, and the banker fur
nishes you with stationery, does the
necessary bookkeeping on the account
(for your benefit as well as his), the
earning power of that ten dollars, even
IL ~ "OAO c1AA AANOOIO0 Ot PCA SCA1Sj
would be insufficient to compensate
him for the cost attending that ac-
count. Therefore be generous and give
him a chance to make profit; for as
every sale of merchandise should show
profit, so every bank account should
at least pay it's way. Give him as large
a balance as you can possibly keep
it will help you very much in his esti-
nation, help your credit and add to
your self respect
Second. Never overdraw. In nation
al banks overdrafts are now forbidden,
but whether they were or not, you have
no right to ask it. It hurts your credit
with the banker. It is forced loan
without security, and is poor business
practice.
Sometimes an overdraft Is allowed
as matter of accommodation, and
sometimes in order that the credit Of
the drawer with the holder Of the check
The Arizona copper camp., 1916-06-09

may not be impaired but it is bad
practice gets you in wrong all over and
should neither be asked nor expected.
Third. Do not draw against "Uncol-
lected funds" BY uncollected funds is
meant checks that have not been col
lected. For instance, if you have a
balance of 500, and deposit a hundred
dollar check and draw your. own check
for $3.50. you have taken all the orig
inal deposit and half of the amount
represented by the check just deposit
ed. The banker must send that check,
let US say to New York, and wait for
advice that it is paid before knowing
that it has been paid, which may take
three or four days. You are asking
him to pay out his money three days
in advance of it's receipt, a practice
which good banks frown upon and will
not allow. Lastly. draw your checks
properly, as outlined in the next talk
and have your pass book balanced once
a month. Doing these things consist
emily, your banker will be food friend
and you will be good customer, In
favor with one who can do you many
favors.

CAMPAIGN FOR THRIFT

A nationwide campaign for thrift is
to be conducted under the auspices Of
the American Bankers Association.
People are to be called upon to save
some $8,O00,000,000, which it is assert
ed they annually waste. Prevention Of
unnecessary expenditures is aimed at.
The campaign should accomplish
much good. The bankers know the i'm
portance Of saving. Saving begets cap
ital, which means the expansion of in
dustries. Europe should have taught
us the need of saving From this new
campaign it should not be judged that
Americans are a shiftless and thriftless
people as. some imagine. The large ac-
counts in our savings banks tell a diff
ferent story, but there is still much
waste, and in public life there is more
waste than in private life.
People frequently say that real pub
lie economy, the close and careful man
agement that the efficient man puts into
his private business, is practically un-
known in this country. It is well that
the word efficient is inserted, for multi
tudes of business men apply no more
economy to their private affairs than
public officials apply to public affairs.
The large percentage of financial fail
ures in business proves this to be true.
Then, again, many people dislike the
sacrifice ordinarily necessary for saw
ing. They live once, they say, and why
not enjoy what they have, thoughtless
of the future. They "take chances" on
the future and how dearly many Of
them pay for taking chances"
To others economy is not fashionable,
and the thought of being questionable
is frightful thought to many persons,
just as frightful as to be regarded as
unconventional or queer. The mass of
people prefer to goose step to the tune
of conventionalism, and conventional
ism changes from time to time.

PHOENIX, Ariz. June 8.-Clubs and
fraternal organizations introducing
liquor into the state of Arizona for
the personal use of their members at
banquets and other social functions
cannot be given guarantee against
prosecution, according to an opinion

feet. 1t is in hard diabase and is
going forward at the rate of a foot or
less a day. Owing to the lack of
facilities for blowing out the powder
smoke, only one shift can be worked.
This tunnel is being driven to cut
the Roman Eagle fault at depth. A
recent re-examination of the fault
showed that it does not dip to the
north, as has been supposed, and the
tunnel will have to be driven farther
than was expected. The fault can
not be far away, however. When it
is reached drift will be run east
ward to the contact, which will be
between $50 and 200 feet distant.
A small hoist has been ordered
and 1t will be used in sinking a
new shaft on another part of the
Pinal Development group. Work is
now going forward at two different
points, in addition to the tunnel, and
200 tons of ore that runs well up in
gold and copper are on the dump.
President Devine hopes to arrange for
the shipment of this ore at an early
date.
President Devine will leave shortly
for Boston to list Pinal Development
stock on the curb. Arrangements to
that end are practically completed.
The next issue of stock, 10000
shares, will be placed on the market
at 81. Many applications for reser-
vations have been received and in
dications are that the issue will be
oversubscribed right in Arizona.
Announcement was recently made
that Mr.. Devine had resigned the as
sistant superintendency Of the Ray
Consolidated Copper company to de-
vote all his attention to the Pinal
Development Now it is announced
that Mr.. c. T. Carpenter has also
resigned a responsible position with
the Ray Con. and will devote all his
time to discharging his duties as Sec
retary Of the Pinal Development. An
office is shortly to be opened at Cen
trail avenue and Adams street, Phoe-
nix, and Mr.. Carpenter will be in
charge there.

P|NAL DEN. CO. GETS BARBAROsSA,
ALSO HOIST AND BIC COMPRESSOR

PHOENIX, Ariz., June bringing
news of the requirement of the Bar
barossa group of gold claims by the
Pinal Development company, that a
big compressor will be in operation
at the main P. D. tunnel by the first
Of July, that new shaft is to be
started on another part of the prop
erty, and that 200 tons of shipping
ore are on the dumps, John c.. Devine
and c. T. Carpenter, president and
secretary respectively of the Pinal
Development company. are in Phoe-
nix.
The deal for the Barbarossa and
the purchase Of a 600 cubic-foot COM
pressor are of equal Importance. One
means the development of a big gold
opment Of what is regarded as one
of the most promising gold-copper
prospects in Arizona.
The Renfro GROUP. which the Pinal
Development company took over some
three months ago, lies east of Troy,
and the sixteen claims of the Bar
barossa lie just east of that. The
Barbarossa has an interesting his
tory. About ten years ago a cook
found some splendid big gold mug
gets in little draw. Several at
tempts were made to trace the mug
gets to their source but these efforts
were not directed by mining men and
proved fruitless. That the ledge from
which they came is not far away is
evidenced by the fact that some of
them were discovered near the top
Of little ridge.
Thousands of dollars worth of mug
gets were washed out of the sand
and gravel. One weighed $478 and
many of them we're worth above $50.
Within a few days the Pinal De-
velopment company will have a force
of men at work on Barbarossa group
making systematic, scientific search
for the ledge. The overburden is to
oe shoveled away and treated in dry
washers. President Devine feels sure
that the washers will recover enough
gold to pay the cost of operations.
He also feels sure that there is much
more gold where the original nuggets
came from and that the Barbarossa
will jump into the list Of important
gold producers as soon as the ledge
is located.
H. Tyrrell holds controlling in
terest in the Barbarossa group and
he granted the Pinal Development
company very attractive terms. The
present option is for so days but can
be extended two years if the COM
pany desires.
The compressor ordered by the
Pinal Development company is to be
delivered by June 10 and by July l
1T should be set up at the mouth
of the main tunnel. Two shifts will
then be worked in the tunnel and
progress will be made at the rate
Of at least 200 feet a month.
At present the tunnel is in 1885

J|lNfYS QUIT AS
GASOLINE SCARS

Little Rock, Feb. 1s.-The in
creasing price of gasoline is appar-
emily solving the jitney problem that
had so long worried the city authori-
ties. At the height of the jitney
craze there were 25 in operation, but
this number has been reduced to nine.
One company that had started out
with II cars, now has only three.
In nine months the price of gaso-
line has more than doubled, and is
now quoted at 81 1-2 cents. The av-
erage daily run of a jitney is about
$50 miles, and ordinarily car will
use one gallon of gasoline in IL miles.
A days run will, therefore, cost $2,7O
for gasoline. Add to this the cost of
the chauffeur, the license fees, and
the depreciation of the car, it is read
lily seen that the margin of profit be-
comes very narrow 1t is also hav-
ing its effect on the owners of pri
vate cars.
