STATE SHUTS HANOVER TRUST

sensation in the Ponzi case here
Charles Ponzi, who recently jumped
into notoriety as a spectacular finan-

Bank Commissioners Joseph G. Allen.
Mr.. Allen declared that the reports
of his agents indicated that the bank
was doing business in an unsafe man
ner. Ponzi resigned from the direc-
torate Of the bank.
William S. McNary, treasurer of
the Hanover Trust company, in a
statement made with the approval of
President Chmielinski, declared the
bank was absolutely sound and sol
vent" adding that the institution had
the largest amount of liquid assets of
any bank in Boston.
Crowd Quickly Gathers.
The admission of Ponzi and the
closing of the trust company were
quickly associated IN the minds of
hundreds who had given their money
to Ponzi for investment and who had
been waiting anxiously in the down
town streets for developments that
had been hourly expected. crowd

is RACE; TO BE HAIRLESs7
Prediction Made, Not Without Reason
That Coming Generations
Will Be Bald.

That the man of the next century
will have no hair on his head has been
predicted time and again. and the fact
that many men under forty are bald
seems to indicate that this may be
possible, the men of the coming gen
erations acquiring badness at an
earlier age until finally a hairless
specimen of the genus homo shall ar.
rive. But 1t Is through no fault Of
their own that men are losing their
hair, while women are perhaps un-
consciously getting ready to become
hairless females of the species, and
while they may be only working out
the will of Providence, they are doing
1t deliberately by 'bobbing" their hair.
The fashion was introduced. II is
said. by Russian women, who disguised
themselves trying to get out of their
Observation-Disclosures country. Coming to
the United States, their bobbed hair
attracted attention, was first taken up
by the bohemian set in New York,
and now IS rapidly spreading. Some
Of the older women. not wishing to
sacrifice their locks, are said to be
wearing false bobbed hair.

COME NEAR FOR PROTECTION
Why Birds Prefer to Make Their Nests
in Proximity to Human
Hahitations.

What Is the real explanation of the
fact that SO many of our birds nest
so near our dwellings and yet show
such unfriendliness when we come
near them? Their apparent confidence,
on the one hand contradicts their sus-
piciOn on the other. Is 1t because we
have here the workings of a new in
stinct which has not yet adjusted it,,
self to the workings of the older in
stinct of solicitude for the safety of the
nest and young? My own interpreta-
ton is that birds are not drawn near
us by any sense of greater security in
our vicinity. 1t is evident from the
start that there is an initial fear of
us to be overcome. How, then, could
the sense of greater safety in our pres
ence arise? Fear and trust do not
spring from the same root. Hunted ami
mails pursued by wolves or hounds will
at times take refuge in the haunts of
men, not because they expect human
protection, but because they are des-
perate, and obliyious to everything save
some means of escape If the hunted
deer or fox rushes into open shed or
a barn door, it is because it is desper-
ately hard pressed, and sees and knows
nothing but some object or situation
that it may place between itself and
its deadly enemy. The great fear OBJ
literates all minor fears.-John Bur-
roughs in Harpers Magazine.

Why
knowledge Queils Fear In
Human Heart

Emerson says: Always do what
you are afraid to do" This Is
splendid rule for cultivating courage;
but an even better rule would be. AL
ways investigate what you are afraid
of" is the advice of Anne Boyan Nc
Call in Delineator. Examine into the
cause of your fear; look into 1t. and
find out what it is.
When we go forward and investigate
che things we are afraid of. we are
very likely TO find in them something
actually helpful. Is it the opinion of
others we fear? If we could make
up our minds to go toward them and
try to understand them, we SHOULD find
that. instead of things TO fear, they
are either things that are not worth
troubling about or else they are things
that would be an actual help to us,
Going toward life instead of sway
from it, learning to face. yes. and in
vestigate, whatever frightens us,
whether our fear be a physical fear,
a mental one, or a spiritual one, this
is practicing bravery. and this at last
is to attain to self-forgetfulness and
the merging of our lives in others.
Brave thoughts (unselfsh thoughts),
the sayings and doings of brave. UNI
selfish men and women; the biography
or autobiography of brave lives; the
committing TO memory of verses that
are full of spiritual bravery the daily
conscious effort to investigate and
understand lives and beliefs and inter-
ests that are different from our own,
all these will help us to cultivate that
bravery which is at heart thought of
others, and that conscious and loving
thought of others which is not alone
bravery but perpetual enrichment oil
life.

why Judges Should Visit Prisons.

Lord Phillimore, late lord justice Of
appeal, holds that it is part of the
duty of judges to visit prisons from
time TO time. TN this way" he said
to an interviewer. "a judge gets to
know what prison is like. and what the
punishment he metes out entails to
those he has TO sentence"
Lord Phillimore has been on the
treadmill and has seen men working
on it. The suggestion recently put to
an American judge. that judges ON
their elevation should serve a term
