BY I. A. FLEMING.

That the predictions Of the great
est month in many years in local
business for December have been
fully borne out is evidenced by the
bank clearings.
The Washington Clearing House
Association reports the clearings for
the month of December at $86,309, 9,101,
while the clearings for November,
larger than for October. were but
s7S,102.512, December making gain
of $S.206,59S, very important in
crease. For the year 1921 the bank
clearings were $S76,405,716, the
activity of recent months greatly
overcoming the deficit Of the earlier
months.
The year 1920 showed sss7.109,844
clearings, so that 1921 fell short of
equaling the big record of 1920 by
$20.7O4,13S.

Potomac Telephone Company for the
month of November showed net $79,-

fane," writes Chaplin. sand how
shockingly that blind man could swear !
