BANKS DON'T WANT
COUNTY DEPOSITS
Anyway, They Didn't Submit Any Bids
When They Had Chance.

There wasn't bank in Hattiesburg,
or in any of the adjoining counties
that, to all appearances, wanted to
carry all OF the money of the Forrest
county treasury, and consequently
Treasurer Hartzog will have to deposit
his funds wherever he desires.
All of the banks weIe asked some
weeks ago to submit offers, and the
one making the greatest inducement
was to be designated as the depository
But none did, and Mr.. Hartzog is di
viding the funds and giving each loca
bank a part of them.

SEM|-F|NALS CONTESTED
Mrs. C. L. Frailey to Meet Miss Bar
ney Tomorrow for District
Championship.

PLAY in the sami-finals of the Womens
District Golf Association championship
at Chevy Chase Club was begun this
morning with wind from the west blow
ing across the course. which. while not
so strong as that of yesterday. made the
green's very slippery.
In the championship flight Mrs. {. l..
Frailey defeated Mrs. Fleming Newbold
up and A. In this match Mrs. Fralley
played fine golf. registering a D on the
first holes.
In the other semi-fi final Miss Barney de-
feated Miss Dorothea owen up and >.
Miss Owens puts seemed unable to hnd
the back of the tin. and on this account
she seemed to lose confidence in her iron
shots.
