bsrculosis.
The double-bar Red Cross is sew
enteen years old this month. 1t is
the fight which the world is making to
rid itself of the scourge Of tuberculosis.
1t stands for the campaign which is be-
ing waged this year in Colorado and
the nation to save 10000 lives.
In 1902 the International Anti-Tuber-
culosis Association adopted as its EN-
blem a combination of the Croi1 de
Lorraine, which is known to every
Colorado soldier as the insignia of the
10th Division of the A. b. F., and the
cross Of the Greek Catholic church.
Both crosses are symbolic of charity
and help to humanity. The National Tu-
berculosis Association of this country
was formed four years later and took
up the same emblem which has been
popularized throughout the country by
local organizations in every state.

Organizations are being formed In the
various counties to carry on health-ed-

THE MODERN BANK

Progressive banking as carried on
today is one of the greatest forces
for industrial development in any
community.
The old style banker who merely
profited by the necessities Of others
is a thing Of the past. He can't do
business In competition with modern
methods.
The present day successful bank
manager is a builder. He studies
the opportunities of community
and assists in bringing in capital to
develop latent resources.
Banking today 10 applying scien-
tific business principles to the hand
ling of money, not merely for the
enrichment of an individual who has
the money to loan but for the de-
velopment of banking business as
an industry in the territory 1t serves,
The modern bank prospers by the
success and growth of Its customers,
not by failures and sheriff's sales.
Banking today is done out in the
open and not behind closed doors.
