 The Treasury has been greatly concerned by the receipt of reports of dishonest traffic in war-savings cer- ti1cates and stamps. These securi- ties were not intended to be negotia- ble and, for the protection of the ownens in case their necessities re- quired. provision was made for re- dernption of war-savings certificates at post offices upon ten days notice, at a fixed price, representing the pur- chase price with an addition for in- terest.

vidual. The language of this statute, both as to the limitation of time or the amount of money to be deposited by an individual within the period of three years. needs no construction as to its meaning, as it is perfectly clear If an examination of the books of a savings bank discloses that an in dividua1, either in his own name or in the name of another, has deposited within any period of three years since August 1, 1915. more than $3,000 the law has been violated.
 The statute leaves no discretion to savings banks as to accepting depos- lts exceeding the amount limited with in the period prescribed. The actual date of the deposts is the determining g factor in each individual case as it arises as the entry of deposits appears on the books of the bank. The amount stated under the statute can not be exceeded within the period limited by the addition of any compu- tation of time rbasis on future depoR. it's.

Asserts Ruskin.

It ought further to be observed re-

are always most valuable which are

most about the past and future states
of the object to which they belong.
In a tree, for instance. 1t Is more I'M

is indicative of growth and life, than
any particular character of leaf or tex

that we should feel that the upper
most sprays are creeping higher and
higher into the sky. and be impressed
with the current of life and motion
which is animating every fibre than
that we should know the exact pitch
of relief with which those fibres are
thrown out against the sky. For the
first truths tell us tales about the
tree, about what it has been. and will
be, while the last are characteristic
