Parachute Jump is
Fatal at Cheyenne

CHEYENNE, Wyo., July 81
Kenneth Keil, "a, of Denver, known
as "Diavalo" parachute jumper and
stunt man with the Gates Flying
Circus of Denver, was killed here
this afternoon while performing at
the Frontier Days program. Keil
made a parachute jump from a
height of 1900 feet. The parachute
failed to open He left the plane
head first, contrary to his usual Gus
tom of jumping feet first and it is
thought that this caused the ropes
of the parachute to become entang-
led.
Keil made desperate efforts to
open the parachute but was unsuc-
cessful.

their deposits. Since every deposit
or tries to keep a fair-sized balance
in the bank. there is always more
money on hand than Is needed to pay
those who are drawing against their
deposits. The law requires that the
bank keep a certain percentage OF
the deposits in its vaults in actual
cash. This cash is called the banks
reserve. At the end of the first
month, let us say, the bank had in its
safe, as reserve, about twenty thou
sand dollars. There should always
be enough cash held by the bank to
take care Of the normal Of
money needed by it's customers.
How Banks Earn Money
What does the bank do with its
capital stock and with the balance Of
deposits in excess of the cash held as
its reserve? Part of the money from
the sale Of shares of capital stock, Of
course. had to be spent for the bank
building and its equipment, which
cost about twenty thousand dollars.
The balance of the capital stock
would be thirty thousand dollars.
The balance of the deposits in excess
of the reserve at the end of the first
month was eighty thousand dollars.
This was one hundred and ten thou
sand dollars in all. 1t was invested
or loaned out at interest to business
people Of good standing, who prom
ised to repay the money to the bank
in thirty. sixty. or ninety days. The
interest on these loans and invest

bank. out of which salaries and other
expenses are paid. This practice Of
loaning money is called discounting,
or giving credit. Credit is -what the
bank deals in. Just as the merchant
buys and sells goods. SO the banker
buys and sells money and credit.
1.-THE assets of a bank, just as In
the case of a store or other business.
are the property owned by the bank.
They are cash on hand, promissory
notes representing the money loaned
out at interest to borrowers. the bank
building, and so forth. In like man
ner the liabilities are what the bank
owes to others. to the stockholders,
to depositors and so forth. AS the
town grows and the business of the
community expands, the deposits OF
the bank become larger and other
banks organize. No matter how large
our great city banks become. they are
all organized and conducted upon the
same principle and for the same pur-
pose as the bank in the small town.
Using Banks Helps Everybody
Scarcely anywhere is there q
financial transaction In which the
bank does not have q direct or an
Indirect part. either through the
stockholders, the management, or
the depositora. Every success

SETTLED THE ARGUMENT

New York, July 28th-There was a
heated dispute owe who owned a big
green parrot before Judge Marx in
West Side court today.
Mrs. Fabbis Weiss said she knew
he was hers because he had a red
feather in his tail.
Arnold Mann commended he was his
because he recognized his voice.
After an hours argument the mag
istrate finally said to Mrs. Weiss:
"Does the parrot swear"
40, my, no." said the woman.
"The hell, I don't" screeched the
parrot, and Mann walked triumphant
ly out of the court with his bird
perched on, his shoulder.

Soon there will not be much left to be puzzled about, at
the rate the general public is being let into the secrets OF things,
and now along comes the American Bankers Association with
a plan for taking the mystery out of banking. Through its
Committee on Public Education it is giving a series of lectures
in the schools throughout the country and publishing a series
of articles explaining just how and why banks work. The first
of these, which make mighty interesting reading, says:

Other. nights a book at home

An hour in q gymnasium one

indeed wise. And gymnasium

to rest muscles tired from either

There is one requisite to beauty

every woman, regardless Of sta

requisite is cheerful. constructive

Wooing is q subtle thing.
Some men use cave-man methods
Some men command affection by
their evident need Of it. It is
not the spoken word, or, the &C
