WALTER HOWELL HEADS
BIG BANKING INSTITUTION
Louisville Joint Stock Land Bank
Resources Over $40,000,O00.

Louisville, KY, Oct. 10.-Twenty-
four years ago Walter Howell, then
resident of Kenton, Tenn, was
elected cashier of the bank there,
sewing for eight years, during which
time the deposits increased from
$4,000 to more than 100000. In
1906 Mr.. Howell moved to Union
City, Tenn, the county seat of Obion,
to become cashier of the First Ma
tional Bank, which later took on the
name of Old National Bank. He was
at first cashier and later president,
his bank rising to the position of
leader in that section with deposits
in excess of 100000. His activities,
as banker at Union City during ten
years of residence, attracted the at
tention Of financiers elsewhere, so in
1916 when the Federal Farm Loan
Act became law, followed by the
organization of the Federal land
banks year later he was selected by
the Federal Farm Loan Board at
Washington to become president of
the Federal Land Bank of Louisville
operating in the states of Tennessee,
Kentucky, Indiana and Ohio. He
held this position until May, 1922,
during which time he saw the loans
grow from nothing to more than
$45, 100000.
Last May Mr.. Howell became pres
ident of the Louisville Joint Stock
Land Bank organized by the group of
financiers who own and control the
Citizens Union National Bank, the
Fidelity and Columbia Trust Com
pany, and the Fourth Street Bank,
of Louisville, with combined re-
sources in excess of $40,000,000.
The Louisville Joint Stock Land
Bank began to do business in Ken
lucky and Indiana and within lit
tie over four months has loaned to
the farmers of these states $780,
900.

THE HEALTH CAMPAIGN
A VERY SUCCESSFUL DAY

Last Saturday was Health League
day in Union City, and, in spite Of
bad weather, the program for the
day was successfully carried out, ex-
cept for a few minor details. A chill
drens parade had been planned but
had to be abandoned on account of
the rain. The clinic at the Health
League Center however, was in ev-
cry respect satisfactory one. Twen-
ty-seven babies were weighed and
measured, records made for follow
up" work and very interesting, help
full talks made to the visitors by our
doctors.
In the afternoon, Mr.. Franz, head
of the Anti-Tuberculosis Association
of Tennessee, made talk at the OPP
era House. The speaker was intro
duced by our school superintendent,
Mr.. Ranck, who also spoke during
an intermission on the good work to
be accomplished by school nurse.
A great many Union City people
have heard Mr.. Franz at different
times and have always found him
to be speaker we'll versed in his sub
ject and capable not only of impart-
ing knowledge but of enlisting CO.
opration, which after all is the OBJ
ject to be attained.
Our Community Nurse, Miss Brown,
the doctors and the Health League
of Union City, have started out to
put our town on the map as the
healthiest place in the State. Please,
everybody help!

UNION CITY HIGH
DEFEATS NEWBERN

On last Friday afternoon the I'm
ion City High School football team
defeated Newbern High School by
the score of 81 to 0. The "Torna-
do" showed a complete reversal of
form over the first game with Full
ton, and had the visitors at their
mercy throughout. Only once did
Newbern threaten to score and that
was on an intercepted pass.
The Tornado showed commenda-
BILE teamwork for the first time this
year. The line showed great i'm
provement and the backfield handled
the ball with less fumbles. The en-
tire team played we'll and it would
be hard to pick out any outstanding
stars. Horner, new backfield man
for the locals, showed a world of
speed and elusiveness making long
gains consistently. He should prove
a very valuable man to the team
Bond, left tackle and acting captain,
was a holy terror to the opposing
backs, breaking through time AMI
again to nail the backfeld men in
their tracks for losses. He played
one of the best defensive games ever
witnessed on a local field. Owens,
Andrews and May made substan-
tial gains, while the local ends could
not be circled. F'rizzel, left end,
played the best game for the Wis
itors.
The crowd present was a large
one, and the enthusiasm shown COM
mendable. The school appreciates
very much the support of the towns
people, and will try hard to give
them some more home victories.
Friday, October 13, the locals will
play Ripley High School at Ripley.
On the following Friday Covington
will come here for game. A large
crowd is expected.

FIRST OIL WELL WAS
DRILLED 63 YEARS AGO

The first oil well in this country
was brought in sixty-three years ago
by Col Edwin L. Drake, near Titus
ville,- Pa. 1t was only So feet deep,
but it marked the beginning of an
epoch, the Importance of which has
only begun to be realized.
The demand for oil created by
the development of the internal COM
bustion engine has so stimulated the
growth of the industry that there are
to-day, according to estimates by the
American Petroleum Institute, about
275,0OO producing wells in the coun-
try.
Production has increased from the
negligible quantity obtained in 1859
from Col. brakes little well to an
output last year of 469, $4,000 bar
rels in this country alone.

CAN MAKE own
OPPORTUNITIES
Pres. cowling Tells Stu
dents Success Depends
On the Man.

"A man can make his own opportu-
mites If he has certain fundamentals
Of success President d. J.. Cowling
of Carleton, college said in addressing
the students Of the University of North
Dakota this morning at the weekly
c%onvocation exercises. These funda-
mentals Of success may be termed
ideas, faith and work"
Ideas give mental discrimination
and a reservoir Of facts which bring
success, President Cowling continued.
He made a plea for faith, faith in
oneself, in others and in God, and
stated that ideas inc faith must be
linked hand in hand with work to
make for any real success. AS long
as people do only what they have to.
they reach no decided goal, but when
they throw themselves into their work
and do more than is called for. then
their work becomes a pleasure and
they attain a worthy aim.
In pleading for faith. the speaker
said he would rather have faith in
everybody and be "buncced" once a
week than to hold distrust toward all
men. Faith in oneself means not con-
ceit and a tendency to criticism, but 4
EnowlehRe of ones own strength and
the confidence to put it to the test.

.LANDUP FOR TAXES
NETS CITY 100000
Collector Towers Reports
LOCO Parcels of Real Estate
Sold During Past Week.

The District government collected
approximately 100000 during the
past week by the sale of real estate
on which the owners failed to pay
their 1921 taxes, Collector Chatham
NJ Towers announced last night.
This amount was gathered into
the city Golfers on 1000 parcels of
land and improvements which were
sold at the sale.
Mr.. Towers estimated last night
that this sale netted the District
about $4,000 more than the one last
March.
1900 Parcels On Sale.
When the sale began on Monday
there were 12.0O0 parcels on which
the 1921 tax had not been paid. rep
resenting in taxes about 100000.
Thus. while less than half of the
parcels were disposed Of at the sale
were collected. The remaining 5000
parcels remain in the hands of the
District until the owners pay the tar
and penalty.
Although outside individuals now
hold tax certificates against these
1000 parcels sold. the owners may al
any time within two years from yes
terday redeem their property by call
ing at the collectors office in the
District building and paying the tax
and penalty, which is l per cent d
month since last June.
Owner Urged to Settle.
The property owners who have al
lowed their land and houses to be
sold for taxes are urged to settle up
before the expiration of the two years
and thereby save trouble, as well as
additional expense.
The persons who paid the taxes on
deliquent property last week on
March is, 1924. may request the Com
missoners for tax deed. After they
acquire such deeds the original own
ers in all probability will have to pay
a cash bonus in addition to the tax
and penalty in order to redeem.
A considerable number of tax deeds
probably will be asked for this week
on property sold at auction two years
ago and not redeemed in the mean
time.
