RECEIVER CT cAFRcLL TRUST
AND SAVINGS TO REALIZE
QUICKLY.
SECURES s0c,cao TIED
UP IN CHICAGO BANK
Receiver Hopes to Pay Depostors Al
rnest in Full--'May BE Some Shortage
Due to eankruptoy Proceedings
Against Former President, RocIfsema
Trustee After Personal Property.

Carroll, Sept. 2O.-J. A. Doug1erty, re-
celver of tho Carroll Trust and Savings
Bank, states that he will begin to pay
the first dividends on the 25th of Sep
TENDER and the amount will he so per
cent.
The bank was closed on the 2 It'll Of
April, and five months after that date
the receiver will be able TO pay the
dividend named. When Mr.. Dousherty
took charge a large portion OF the
banks available assets were in the
hands of the Continental and CONNER
cial bank of Chicago and a collateral
for the 100000 borrowed from that
bank. Before a dollar could be avail
able for the depositors 1t was neces-
sary to collect this 100000 to redeem
the notes held as collateral. It took
time TO make these collections and the
work was accomplished after the most
strenuous efforts on the part of Mr..
Dougherty.
The first dividend of so per cent Is
considered good in view of conditions.
Much of the assets We're not due and
Of course could not be realized on.
Other parts have the value, but have
not yet been turned into cash. Mr..
Dougherty is using his judgment and
is governed wholly by what he con-
siders the'best ultimate result to the
banks creditors. He appreciates, as
we'll as anybody concerned, that cred
itors want their money as soon as they
can get it. but he would not be acting
for their best interests If he were to
make haste that would incur unneces-
sary loss.
Depositors are interested in the
next dividends to be paid. 1t was
thought some time ago that assets
would be sufficient to pay 100 cents on
the dollar, ultimately. But there is
now some doubt. Creditors other than
depositors, to whom was due a con-
siderable amount of money, forced
John Roelfsema. the president, into in
voluntary bankruptcy. Action likely
will be brought TO recover from the
receiver the property Roelfsema as
signed to the bank, consisting of his
equity in the Richland township farm,
a Cadillac automobile, house and lot.
and a number of vacant lots in Car
roll. The house and lot were sold for
1000, the automobile for $1,000. and
the lots are worth about 5000 The
amount of equity in-thc farm is prob
iematical. Should the trustee in bank
ruptcy recover from the receiver the
property assigned to the bank by
Roelfscma, just that much will be
taken away from the depostors

Gave his children gold
INDUCED them
In fads--
Saved them from fretting
And torments.
He Dragged to the world
OF their serene life
Encouraged idleness--

Ease.
But the world Is not made
For the sluggard type
And money buys only
Some things
There is no selling price
For brains
No market price
For ambition.
The father gave only
Useless gifts
And robbed his sons
Of clean desires
Placed them all
In Luxury's lap
Who drained ambition away.
He plased Temptation
In the youngsters path
Time stood looking on
But they dozed away
In easy chairs
And nothing worth while
Would stay.
The boys without gold
Struggled and fought
Minus comforts
Time and ease.
But they built
Strong characters
And ironclad wills
With growing determination
To win.
Self-improvement they caught
And corralled--
Accomplishment became
Their affinities--
Today they are victors--
