DID SHE GET THE MoNEY7

Banks and bankers give much time and attention to the training Of their apprentices. The head of a big down town institution was once giving a lec- | ture on the work of the paying teller | and, as Homer occasionally nodded, ! this man felt justified in lapsing, to- | ward the end of his talk. into an in ! formal narrative of some of his early ! experiences. He told of the natural reluctance of a bank to refuse to cash a check for one entitled to the money who might not be fully or regularly identified and of various ways in which an experienced teller satisfies himself of an applicants good faith.
 "Once a charming young woman presented a small check at my win dow" said the speaker. "She was transparently honest, but had no acquaintance in the bank nor any let ters or other papers with her. I asked 1 her if she had handkerchief or some article of jewelrv marked with her name or initials. After moments

Growers Can Hold Their Wool Until

tions-Western Wool Mon Especial
iy Hard Hit BY Demoralized Mar
ket Conditions Due to Cloth Panic.

Special to Times Republican.
Ames. June 23.-The federal re
serve board has granted the plea OF
wool growers from all parts of the
country that ! the federal reserve
banks lend financial assistance Il
the sheepmen and has made possible
the granting Of loans on wool held in
storage. according to j. w. Cover
dale. secretary of the American
Farm Bureau Federation, who has
just received this word by wire from
Washington.
Due to the financial stringency
the wool growing industry was faced
with Generalization if suchS action
had not been taken by the reserve
board. says Tom c. Stone. former
secretary Of the Iowa Fleece Wool
Growers Association. The big wool
buying agencies. fearing n heavy re-
ductlon In clothing prices, have
practically ceased to buy wool. ne
declares. AS a result the price OF
wool has fallen to a point where 1t
does not meet the costs of produc-
ton.
Western wool men were especially
hard hit. declares Mr.. Stone, and
without government aid would have
had to flood the market with cheap
wool In order to meet feeding loans
contracted last winter. This move
ment, which would have forced the
market still lower would have been
fatal to the industry in Iowa as we'll
as In the rest of the country.
Can Await Normal Market.
The action Of the reserve board
will make It possible for wool grow
ers to carry their wool in storage
warehouses until the market returns
to normal. They will be able to sup
ply the market as it requires their
product and so distribute the sale
turnout the year. At present, Mr.
Stone says, wool is selling at from
20 cents to 40 cents per pound. a
price which does not represent the
cost Of its production.
v. G. Warner, secretary Of the
Iowa Fleece Wool Growers Associa-
ton, represented that organization
in the hearing which the reserve
hoard granted the sheepmen. The
American Farm Bureau Federation
co-operated with the wool growers
in presenting their case before the
board.
The boards action will have q
marked effect on the Iowa wool
growing industry, according to Mr.
Stone. 1t is explained that Iowa will
market thru the association approx
mately 100000 pounds of wool this
year. This wool is shipped to Z
central warehouse in Chicago. Ac-
cording to the boards ruling. wool
growers who consign wool to the
association ware house can borrow
money at the banks on the strength
of the receipt for their wool. As q

take their rest at night in the open

! The state department on tuhercu-
losis Of the board Of control has for
many years promited the doctrine or
open air sleeping. AS result th'l
people have become educated to its
value. There Is no single factor &C
| cording to the state department. OF
greater health value than sleeping
| In the open air. Farmers in part'c-
ular have adopted this plan and find
that they are better able to do the
arduous work Of the farm when they

pressive heat of summer the bed

The greatest single achievement IN
the suppression OF tuberculosis has
been the reformation of habits OF
living. Whereas. formerly people
shut their bedrooms during cold
weather for fear of taking cold. they
now open the windows and permit
the fresh air to come In. This has
decreased colds and all sorts OF re-
spiratory diseases. The night air
superstition also has been dissipated
entirely and no longer do the people
lsfear to open bedroom windows while
they sleep. While thousands OF
people are sleeping in the open air.
1t Is urged that thousands more shall
screen porches and move out OF the
house where they may have the
benefit of cool. refreshing sleep.
1t is believed that Iowa Is in the
advance OF all other states In the

are actually sleeping in the open air.
