look like natives. The children are
always dirty, with uncombed hair
and torn clothing. The hound dog Is

Cooperative farm banks would
take little or nos business from the
commercial banks, for the bill care
fully restricts their general banking
operations to business which is incl
dental to their main purpose. BY
their aid in increasing the production
of farms and hence the prosperity of
farmers, the new banks will swell
the volume OF business done by the
cities and hence the business OF the
commercial banks. They will bring
into the channels of trade capital
which has not existed before and will
add much to the general aggregate
wealth, In which commercial banks
will share. Banks should take warn
ing by their experience with postal
savings banks. Fearing that the lat

they opposed adoption Of the postal

its activity. In practical working

THEY LOOK BAD

When you see empty bottles deco

bad-and suspicious.
When you see papers blowing
around over town il indicates that
people are thoughtless and careless.
II is bad.
When you see broken glass around
under foot 1t is pure negligence, and
is both bad and dangerous.
When you see kitchen garbage
dumped into the back yard or tossed
over the fence, it looks bad and il
smells worse.
When you see vacant property lit
tered with debris of every nature. IT,
too, looks bad-is offensive TO the
mind as wen as to the eye.
