hundreds of at last bound together brothers
and sisters by common fate
THE Star Spangled Banner" passe but n whole
ton rising to it when the tuningork of Fate sounds
tonal peril
The song of the mutudes is the honest expression of
inspiration and spirit Regardless of words and hamones
1t is the torrent of mighty purpose In it the tngng
of the aged the fearless ardor of youth the hot
deterpnation of the mddeaged In ii the halt the blind
the weak the despairng may be giants. 1t is rhythm
making warriors of human mixture. In il
brotherhood with asked for deficiencies in

1t is the challenge of the TO wrong II binds and
moves.
The glorious vision SEEM the multitude in song

To open battle with song unusual thing with
the nations of old. We may yet boys crossing
bloody No Mans Land with song that will hold them
together and make them still the more "Our Boys"

Northern Bank Accounts

1t is almost incredible that the depostors OF the late
Northern bank should have been completely ignored in
the liquidation of the assets But it is true nevertheless
They have NOT been informed of what is going
Yet they have been remarkably patient
But patience may cease to be virtue.
Surely enough time has elapsed for the bank examiner
to make kind of accounting. II is due to the de-
positors. whose money he's handling.
They ought not only get accounting but they ought
to also get part Of their money back BEFORE Christmas
