VIII Also Open at Poplar

Poplar, October 10.-If the deposi-
tors will cooperate with a plan of re-
organization that has been submitted
to them( the Stockmens National bank
of this city, closed since last year,
will reopen about the 18TH Of next
month, according to statement made
this week by Charles R. Trinder,
former president of the bank The
plan of reorganization is similar in
many respects to the plans adopted
by other institution in the state which
were forced to suspend because of the
unusual conditions which have prevail
ed in the country during the past year
or SO.
In brief, the depositors are asked
to accept certificates of deposit fer
part Of their funds and also to apply
a certain part of their monies to
fund to defray the cost of reorgani-
zation
This is considered an amicable adj
justment to all concerned and has been
accepted by people in other cities
where banks have been closed and Mr..
Trinder believes the depositors Of the
Stockmen's bank will be glad to CO.
operate in this way. Letters explain
ing the plan together with agreements
to be signed were sent out this week
to the depositors of the Steckmen's
bank by the committee on reorganiza-
ton. When the deopsitors have been
heard from and one or two ether mat
ters have been arranged the reorga-
nization committee will have a def
mite announcement to make relative
to the reopening of the bank.

County Commissioners
Met Tuesday, 10,
In Special Session
ALLOW CLAIMS FOR JOE DOLIN
AND CALL ANOTHER SPECIAL
SESSION FOR THURSDAY, OC-
TOBER 26TH.

The Board Of County Commissions
ers met in Special Session, pursuant
to call, Tuesday, October 10th. Com
Ibsen, Com. Matkin, Com. Tyler, and
Clerk O'Grady, present.
| Current claims were allowed in
cluding several claims for Joe Dolir
which had been held up because they
appeared to be for more than his
contract called for, but Joe appeared
before the board, called attention to
the joker in his contract, as had been
exposed at the time when the contract
was let and which Dolin denied at the
time and offered five hundred dollars
for any one to prove that there was
a Joker in his contract, and which jok-
er Com Ibsen has been insisting was
not there and telling about among his
friends that the Producers News had
not told the truth about, and Informed
the board that he could go to court
and collect the amount of his claims,
which he could, whereupon Com. Ibsen
looked sick, realizing that the boys
had put it over him again and that
the Producers News was right as it
always it, after all, and upon motion
the Dolin claims were allowed and
warrants were ordered drawn in pay
ment for the same. Mr.. IDsen thought
it would be better to give the money
to Delin, even if the claims were il
legal, rather than to pay lawyers to
litigate the same. Mr. Ibsen is so
sensible in his reasoning sometimes.
Other matters were then disposed
of, that ought to take about two hours
to attend to and another special meet
ing of the Board was called for Thurs
day, October 26th.
Mr.. Ibsen asked for and secured a
leave of absence from the state for
the period of IL days.

be about the same outside of the 15-

THE LIBRARY MAY GET
MORE AID FROM CITY

Among the big civic and educa-
tional problems in Baton Rouge IS the
library.

in tho past few years, needs increas-
ed library facilities, and the TACT
that rent has gone up in the build
ine in which the library is housed and
No other place to be obtained IN a
apitable location, the ladies in charge
are deeply concerned. A petition IS
before the new court house commit
tee asking for temporary headquar'
tiers for the library in the new court
house This request is made to save
the funds and to use rent money in
buvinp books. Demands are greater
than funds permit, and there is i'm.
mediate need of books for collateral
reading to be used throughout thf
school year. These books are bough'
as prescribed by the state and arr
read by pupils from schools both II
and out of town.
Tuesday at the city hall the Il
brary committee held a conferenc

It was the opinion expressed by all
in attendance that the recent Bl-en-

things accomplished. One Of the most
worthwhile impressions received by
those in attendance at the conference
was the high type Of men who are IN
terested in the work. They are big
men in physical stature, mind ana
soul. One Of the thrilling episodes OF
the entire meeting being when prac'
tically a hundred percent OF those
in attendance at the conference lined
up and pledged themselves by the
"Apisi Test" which was a consecra-
t;on of themselves to carry out IN
their own lives the principles and
ideals of the Boy Scout movement
i About five hundred men were pres
ent representing every state in the
union except one, Hawaii, Canada
England and France. And they were
busy every moment of the day in con-
ference about the problems Of the
movement or taking lectures from
