Groom insists on Full Ceremony, So

There was an unusual interruption
to a wedding ceremony In north
London register office when the bride
groom put the ring on his brides
finger and found it would not go
beyond the knuckle. He made several
attempts to get the ring on, but with
out success,
Saying that the jeweler must have
mistaken the size, the bridegroom
asked the registrar if he could wait
till he got 1t changed. The official
said that the ring did not matter, as
they had both said the contracting
words and were legally married. All
that remained was to sign the register.
"Oh, but we must be married prop
erly," replied the bridegroom. II want
my wife to have her ring now and in
your presence The bride agreed, so
leaving her in the Office. he hurried to

are millstones around the necks Of

Progressive banks adhere to the
same standards they exact Of their
patrons. Their business methods
must be beyond reproach. They ex.
clude business of doubtful reputation
and have no part in the feverish
struggle for sudden wealth. Well
managed banks are regarded with
great respect, and hold a place Of
ever increasing Importance.
Some thoughtless persons criticize
banks for not making loans more
freely but It must be remembered
that banks business is to receive
deposits as well as to grant loans,

safeguard its depositors' funds and
so control them as to be always ready
to return them intact upon demand.

Banks are said to deal in credit.
The word "credit" has various mean
ings. When you deposit money, your
account receives "credit" for that
amount. When man borrows money
on his note at the bank, he is granted
"credit." When a railroad, a manu-
featuring concern, town, or gov
eminent, issues bonds, 1t uses Its
Credit" When anyone buys goods
without paying cash, at the time of
purchase, credit" is granted. With
out credit, our present day business
system could not exist
Credit is possible only where peo-
ple have confidence in each other,
and confidence can exist only where
good character exists. Every success
ful business man looks upon his credit
standing as a most valuable asset,
and he maintains it by square dealing.
To get credit a man must pay his
debts, or 1t soon becomes known he Is
not of good character and not worthy
of confidence. Those from whom he
would buy refuse to trust him and the
banks decline to grant him credit
Then come business failure and long
uphill fight to get on his feet again
and live down the past.
More Than Honesty Needed
Honesty is not the only factor in
yolved in credit. For instance, Mr..
Jones, a man of forty, of excellent
morals, who has enjoyed a fair in
come for many years, sees an oppor-
tunity to purchase business. He
REQUIRES financial assistance. He calls
on a banker and asks for the neces-
sary credit. The banker asks the ma
ture of the business, what 1t will cost,
and what MT Jones can command In
ready money, or other resources, but
learns that he has no money or prop
erty of his own.
II Is clear that Mr.. Jones lacks
ability to manage his affairs wisely.
He has not had enough strength OF
character to save money by adapting
expenses to income, and therefore has
not proved that he could make finan-
cial progress. Moreover, II men do
not invest some of their own money
in the business they usually lack in
centive and become easily discour-
aged. 1t would be unwise for anyone
to assume such a financial risk, and
Mr.. Jones probably would fail to get
credit from the bank. He must give
I'D his opportunity to some one else
who has saved money.
Banks are public servants, but that
does not obIigate them to serve those
who are unfair in business or lack
ing in the great principles underly-
ing success. To be known as a care
full and thrifty person is the best
assurance that the bank will extend
financial help when needed.
Many people think that one should
shun debt like the measles. They
fail to distinguish between wise and
unwise debt. 1t Is wise to use credit,
that is, go into debt, to buy home
Such debt encourages thrift. A stu
dent may wisely borrow money need
ed to complete his education. 1t Is
an investment that should pay divi-
dends in greater success. Another
wise use Of credit is borrowing
to buy good bonds, such as Liberty
Bonds, paying $40 down, borrowing

Federal Reserve Copied

Peru is the first country in Latin
America to reorganize its banking
system according to Federal Reserve
principles by the enactment Of the
Federal Reserve Act Of Peru to de-
velop the country's resources along

banking system is modelled after the
United States Federal Reserve, with
notifications such as the banking
conditions and general financial sit

the creation of Federal Reserve
Bank in Peru. The directorate Of this
bank is to be composed Of nine mem
bers, three of whom are to be desig.
mated by the Government and the

Let every man nina MS own puSl-
Missionaries.
77HERE is a certain type of person
l. who thinks, always, that brusque-
ness, even rudeness, to the servants OF
his friends shows familiarity with the
ways of the world. Let us hope that
these persons are those who have had
little chance to get about, little chance
to mingle with those who know how
things should be done-that they are
those who have never had servants of
their own, and have had few friends
who numbered servants among theii
possessions. Sometimes, unfortunate
ly, we meet women who have always
been used to servants who yet have
an overbearing attitude toward the
servants Of their friends. We always
suspect that they gossip with their
own servants.
Now, in the big cities, at least, serv-
ants resent an appearance Of friendli-
ness of too informal sort on their
employers parts. In their relation as
servant, especially where they have
specialized, they wish to assume n
deferential manner, just as they wish
to have their employers assume a d.
recting manner. That Is part of the
game They expect the same treat
ment from their employers friends.
But there is a manner, between one
of overbearing haughtiness and one OF
! ostentatious frlendlness, that the we'll
bred man or woman assumes 10 his
friends servants. And II Is really only
the outward manifestation Of kindly
consideration to others, whatever their
rank or walk in life,
To begin with, always greet your
friends servants, If you have visited
the house often enough to know them,
A simple word of greeting is sufficient.
That is, If you are weekend guest
in house, and the maid brings let
ter to your door before breakfast, say
"Good morning, Jane" And always
t thank them, simply, for services rem
dered, If you call frequently at n
. house, and the same servant always
answers the door, remember n simple
word of greeting then.
Never ask favors OF your friends
servants, either when you are visiting
in their homes or when you might be
able To make Il convenience of them at
some other time.

TEXAS MAN BREEDS QUEEN
BEES FOR every MARKET
BY Use Of Artificial Means He
Fools the Bees and ReapS
Income Of $4,000 a Year.

Raising and selling queen bees
bring to e. Il. Auit an annual revenue
of more than $4,000, and most of this
is profit Mr.. Aults queen bee farm is
near Caallen, Tex, and is in its
twelfth year of successful operation.
He ships the queen bees all over the
United States and to foreign lands,
including Australia, Japan and coun-
tries of Europe and South America.
He also ships many colonies of work
ing bees.
Breeding queen bees is done partly
by artificial means There would be
no money in the industry if the ma
tural breeding method of the bees
were depended on for queens, it is
explained. 1t was discovered that the
working bees, like carpenters, per-
formed their work according to the
plans and specifications of the archl-
tect; so Mr.. Ault began building large
cells for queens In the artificial wax
comb foundation. These queen cells
are then filled and produce queens,
according to the foundation specifica-
tiunS.
AS a result of this artificial method
Mr.. Ault obtains about 100 queens
from every hive of 1000 to 5000 work
ing bees, instead of only one queen.
The bees are fooled, but they do not
seem to mind it.
Queen bees vary in price. When
the demand is slow they sell for as
low as 81. but ordinarily they bring
$3.50 to $2.75 each. Just now there is
an extraordinarily good demand for
them and the price is on the upward
trend.
