LOANINC BRAINS

Banking is coming to the front
as one of the great constructive
industries.
Not so very long ago the bank
er merely loaned money.
Today he is loaning brains and
experience in addition, and with.
out cost. The modern banker
finds that he must, in many in.
stances, anticipate the needs of
his customers in obtaining in.
formation and statistics relative
to industries which may be de.
veloped in his community.
The banker realizes that in the
success of his community lies his
success. Successful industries OF
farmers mean hundreds anC
thousands of new depositors anc
added opportunities for safe
loans.
Hence, banking is developing
more and more into a persona
service organization, and not ;
mere money loaning machine, al
it is often pictured.

VALUABLE SUGGESTIONS

The first calls for having stored
away somewhere in the car a
stack of old newspapers. When
the car gets stuck and the wheels
refuse to take hold, feed in some
of the old papers between the
tires and the mud. Usually only
a few will have to be worked in
before the wheels will begin to
grip and the car start forward.
This method Of handling a diff
ficult situation is so simple and
so uniformly successful, that
every motorist should know of it

RESPONSIBILITY PROVED

Proof that the filibuster which
ended in the wholesale obstruc-
tion of vital legislation in the
last days Of the recent session
of Congress was in pursuance Of
q republican plan concocted in
November, and followed to its
consummation on March 9TH, is
afforded by the statements of
Senators Martin and Simmons.
These senators were in charge
of important bills and had ample
opportunity to observe the repub-
lican tactics of delay and hind
rance. They openly accused re-
publican leaders of designing the
defeat of measures which the
administration favored because
the country needed them.
Lack of this legislation and
the appropriations which many
of the bills contained, is a SER
ious detriment to the conduct of
the nations affairs. 1t is, be-
sides, a hardship to private busi-
ness which required some such
stimulus as would have been
given by the governments ex-
penditures for materials, sup.
plies and labor. The period of
industrial and commercial in
stability has doubtless been pro-
longed by the failure of congress
because of republican opposi-
tion-to restore our legislation
and internal administration to a
peace-time basis.
Heavy damage has been done
by this filibuster and the onus is
upon the republicans. Their Of
fense is all the greater because
their motive was of the un-
worthiest. They hoped to COM
pei President Wilson to convene
congress in extra session so they
might harass and hamper him
during his efforts to effect a just
settlement of the latest war and
bind the world by a solemn COW
enant to guarantee permanent
peace. They hoped by this scheme
of obstruction to get another
chance for opposition.

such a contingency.
Here is the other method sug-
gested by the United States Tire
Company: Put the car in low,
and if you cannot feed the gas
with your foot evenly, so that
the wheels will revolve slowly,
put your emergency break on.
Do not put it on so that the
wheels will not revolve at all.
but tightly enough to keep them
from revolving rapidly. With
the wheels turning slowly, the
maximum pull is delivered to
them by having the car in low
gear, and so long as they turn
slowly they can get the benefit
of the tremendous power.
1t is not always wise to fill the
hole with stones or bricks, for
their rough edges are hard on
tires. Small branches of trees
are better, as they offer much
better tractive space. Should
this method fail, quite often a
slight push that would not much
more than move a baby buggy
will furnish just the added
amount of power necessary to
get the car going.

What Is a Boiling Point?

A boiling point is the temperature at which
liquid will begin to boil or vaporize.
In distilling a given quantity of gasoline the
re6ner ascertains at what point each 10 per
cent will boil, until the entire quantity is evap-
Grated or distilled. In this way he determines
what is known as the initial boiling point, as
well as all intervening boiling points in the
chain, up to the maximum, high boiling point.
