MAKING BAD BILLS
! GOOD TO BANKS
Visiting Bankers Interested in
Process BY Which Worn and
MutiIated Bills Are Redeemed.

Tourists In Washington and those
who more frequently sojurn here are
reasonably well acquainted with the
processes OF printing United states
money, but with its redemption and
they know almost nothing.
There is never ending Interest In the
printing of bills at the Bureau Of
Engraving and Printing, but very
few visitors ever view the working
macerator or learn anything about
the process by which worn. mutiliat-
ed or partially destroyed bills are
made good to national banks by issue
of new bills and the destruction OF
the old ones. Yet daily more are
learning that the end OF the 50 bill
is quite as interesting as It's birth,
and Just as much care is taken to
preserve it's value on the day of burial
as on the day of it's bright crisp issue.
Strangely enough half the bankers
OF the United States are not thorough
iy familiar with this process.

In practice the bank agent very

these errors are on one side Of the

The agents have been able in the past
to rectify and change the countings
of both the Treasurer and the Comp

thousands of dollars. The bank agent
thus serves n useful purpose not only
to the Government but to its clients,

complete confidence and cooperation
of the officials of the Treasury.

SUNDAY SCHOOL BEGINS
 NEW YEAR WITH BIG GLASS

The home class of the Presbyterian Sunday school started in the new year with an enrolment of 72 mem bers, yesterday, the first Sunday Of the year This class is composed of those who find 1t inconvenient to at tend the Bible classes at the GUS tomary hour but who do the pre- scribed Bible readings at home. In this way the church can take care of a much larger number than they have room for under present condi tions while it also gives an oppor- tunity for those who have become rusty to brighten up in their Bible studies. Only six more quarterlies are on hand. Anyone wishing to join these Bible students may report at once to Mrs. George Bruce, superin' tendent of the Presbyterian Sunday school. There is no charge in con nection with this class and the read. ing do not require more than one-half hour per week.

Koshiro gave a faith full portrayal of Americas first dip lomat to Japan, having borrowed a portrait of MT. Harris from the Am erican Embassy, through the kind ness of Roland s. Morris.
 The play was called "America-no- tsukai'' or "The American Messen- ger" and was written by Okamuto Kido.

 Smith College

NEW YORK, Jan. 5.-Tho trustees and lumnae of Smith College, North ampton, Mass, on January F will begin an active campaign to raise 2 $4,000,000 fund for the college. In the United States and ether cou + tries there are approximately 60 clubs and districts of Smith alumnae, and to each of these the Central FuHa Committee will assign a quota
 Mrs. Thomas s. Scott of Cordova has been appointed chairman in thct territory to work with the Smi | alumnae in securing the $4,000, ,o9O needed by hte college to build add tional dormitories, increase the sal aries of the members of the faculty and provide for improvements in many of the college buildings and much of hte academic equipment
 The present salaries paid to the professors and teachers of Smith College are inadequate for the high cost of living. In many cases those with families are forced to supple ment their salaries through duties outside the college Additional dor mitories on the campus will relieve the present crowded housing condi- tions and will also furnish revenue that will assist materially in bring ing about a 30 per cent increase in the salary scale
 Graduates of Smith College in far away lands for this fund are under the direction of the central fund com mittee. of which Mrs. Hanah Dunlop Andrews of New York City is chair man. Groups in Japan. China, Ha- waii Porto Rico and the Philippines are organized and these will raise their quotas in many novel ways. Smith College is represented in Alaska by Mrs Edward E. Pierce, '01 of Candle Mrs. Elmer G. Bridg ham, 0S of Sitka. and Mrs. Scott the chairman of the Alaska group.

BIOLOGISTS ARE
 LEAVING SERVICE
 OF GOVERNMENT
BIOLOGISTS ARE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. The fact
 that there has been Y resignatlons
 from the scientific force of the Geo. logic Survey, Department of the h. terior, during the last year-17 per cent of the force suggests made
 quacy of compensation, and the re. signments' in the clarical and non scientific force was even larger. This
 statement of course does not include separations to enter military service The largest inroad upon the Geolog- ical Survey efficiency comes from the oil companies; the final result of the
 pioneer work of the Federal geolog-
 ists in applying geologic methods in
 the search for oil and gas is that a large proportion of the leading oil geologists the world over are United States Geological Survey graduates.
 indeed the future decline in popular ity of the Geological Survey as a recruiting station for oll-company per sonnel will be due simply to the fact
 that the experienced oil geologistS
 who remain in the government serv-
 ice are from personal preference i'm
 mune to outside offers.
 The relation between government salaries and outside salaries of' geol- ogists has been definitely determined in a compilation of the records of 29 geologists who left government serv ice after receiving an average salary of $2,271. The average initial salary
 of these men in private employ was $5,121, and after about two years
 average service this compensation
 averaged $7,SO4. and eight of these
 geologists receive $10,000 or more. The disparity Is even greater if con. sideration is given to the large fi- nancial returns from the investments made by the private geologists in , connection with their professional
 work. privilege properly denied by statutes to the official geologist That the value of these men as specialists and consulting geolOgist1
 is far greater to the country at large
 than to private corporations is un- deniable. Furthermore, it is import
 ant to note that most of these geol-
 ogists had persisted to the limit of endurance with a magnificent spirit based on their love of scientific re search and their desire to contribute to the sum of geologic knowledge
 Most of them have been forced out of the service by sheer financial nee
 essity. Unless adequate measure are taken to ameliorate the situation the geologic staff is destined to sui fer far greater deterioration oi
 morale and depletion in it's ablest
 most responsible, most experienced
 and most valuable members. The
 Geological Survey is passing into a
 stage when, with greater need than
 ever for systematic geologic work
 in the country. it is ceasing to be
 attractive to the young men of the
 greatest ability. training and promise This situation deserves prompt and
 effective remedy for it threatens
 most seriously to criple this branch of the public service. Annual Report Director. United States Geological Survey.)
