debris from tie roof of the cave. Win
ton stumbled among the rafting
stones, and, catching up Sheila, stag
gered along the passage. But he
turned as the succession of thunder
Gus crashes ceased, and waited for the
next flash. None came, and he heard
not the least sound from the Hotten-
tots behind him.
After a full minute Winton struck
match. To his amaZement he saw, by
the little light, that the passage behind
him was completely obliterated. The
fall of the stone had brought down
a miniature landslide All traces Of
the entrance beneath the mountain
had vanished. No light, no sound
could penetrate.
Winton tried to strike another
match. But the box was damp, and
the slight flame fizzled out immedi-
ately. He tried another and another
with like result.
He sat down quietly at Sheila's side.
Later, he thought wearily, he would
feel his way onward in the darkness
Now, worn out by the day and by his
struggle, he had an intense desire to
sleep.
He heard Sheila sigh and put his
arms about her.
"We are safe, dearest!" he said

bowels of the earth.
She put her arms about him in a
manner Indicative of complete conf
dence And, with Sheila beside him,
Winton felt that nothing mattered.

self-distrust, ne discovered a CLEAN of

Look! y he said pointing.
Against the tiny patch of light he
saw her face, and the look on it told
him that, what he had hidden from her,

with supreme confidence.
He raised her hands to his lips,
awed by her courage and faith.
They began following the track
down toward the patch of light. 1t
was hardly more than an earth-hOle in
the mountain, but freedom was not far
away. And at last they emerged upon
the steep hillside and understood the
nature of their location
The whole of the mountain was
honeycombed with assures. In the
course of ages, as these crumbled
away, and the boulders above fell un-
der the pressure of the whole mass,
tunnels had been formed. The road
which they had traversed had been ac-
tually a continuation of the pass at
the end of the valley of bones, and
had once been open to the sky.
But what gave Winton the greatest
confidence was the discovery that this
was the only pass through the soliG
mountain wall, which extended for sev
eral miles in either direction. To at
tack them the Hottentots would have
to make almost a days detour. AnC
there was not the least likelihood thai
they would do this. They had nothing

THE REWARD

The individual banker should be
much more than a mere lender of
money, much more than a mere col
lector of interest. More than any
man in his community, he has the op-
portunity to guide the farmer along
lines of safe progress and toward
substantial achievement. The banker
in an agricultural district must know
agriculture if he is to loan money to
farmers and upon agricultural secur-
ity. In addition to that. the banker
is in touch with the activities of the
business world. He has correspond
ent banks in the larger cities; he
must. of necessity for the protection
of his own business, look beyond the
horizon Of his immediate vicinity in
order to foresee imminent changes in
business conditions, The banker has
the opportunity to be the point Of
contact between the farmer and these
many other activities of the business
world with which the farmers bust
ness is so closely connected. The
field is wide, the opportunity is great,
the reward of confidence OF ones
patrons and neighbors- gained by
service in their behalf-is worth the
effort.-Walter W. Head, President
American Bankers Association.

co-oPs SELL A BILLIONS WORTH


According to the 1920 census fig
ures. $721, .6S9 worth of farm prod
ucts was sold through cooperative
marketing associations. The great
est growth in cooperative marketing
has come since that time, so that 1t
is safe to assume that much more
than a billion dollars worth Of prod
ucts are sold comparatively at the
present time. A general survey
shows that the larger co-operatives
in fruit are handling nearly 100000
900 worth of business annually. The
large scale milk co-operatives do a
total business Of about $150,000, 900
annually, while the tobacco group is
doing a combined business OF more
than $10O,OOO,OOO annually. The cot
ten group has also passed the $780,

asked Aunt Emmy. She got a LETT
ter from some so-called investment
house she knew nothing about. She
answered il and they sent a plausible
young man TO her and he persuaded
her that the company he was selling
bonds for was seventh wonder.
The carelessness of some people is

have gone to her bank, asked for re-
liable information and saved her
money. Any bank has or can get the
facts about business concerns show.
ing their condition. Had she bought
bonds in company that the facts
showed had been meeting it's Obliga-
tons for years, had a good surplus
and good business prospects, she
would not be in trouble today. In
stead, she took the word of that
plausible man who was either de.
ceiEed himself, or who willfully de-
ceived her, or at least was not so
much interested in protecting her as
in selling bonds to her. There is
really very little excuse for the Mrs.
FuIlers of today because reliable in
formation on financial matters may
be had SO easily"
'sIf she only hadn't put so much
money in those bonds!" commented
sympathetic Molly.
That's, another thing it is unwise
to do replied Aunt Emmy. 1T is
always foolish to carry all your eggs
in one basket. Now if she had put
only part Of her money in those bonds
instead of all she had, she could have
stood the loss. AS it is there is no
telling what straits the poor little
woman has got herself into. Like
every one else Mrs. Fuller was too
greatly tempted by the promise of a
high rate of interest on her invest
ment Her extreme ignorance Of
finance coupled with the desire for
high interest caused all her trouble.
There are few things more dan
gerous than thinking you can do
something you know nothing about as
well as somebody who knows all
about it, How foolish that sounds
just to say it! Mrs. Fuller may be
able to go to the butcher and because
of her judgment of cuts of meat, get
the very best and most for her money
but that is no sign that she can judge
securities. Buying bonds is NO diff
ferent from buying meat. You simply
must understand your subject. You
must know how to select good bonds,
and you must know when to sell and
when to buy. The only way you can
do this is to take the advice of some
one whose business it is to study the
bond market. Any bank large or
small will gladly discuss investments
with its depositOrs. When you have
learned enough to depend somewhat
on your own Judgment make your
own decision as to what to buy
then talk it over with your banker to
make sure. Should he say, Don't
buy abide by his decision
Mrs. Fuller's case has taught me
a lesson, Aunty," said Molly, ''Pn
lever take any chances like she did"

firm.
The present firm designed the Jemi.
son Realty building and were associa.
ted with H. B. Wheeler in plans for
the new Masopic TEMPLE. Warren
also was associated in the designing
of the Empire and Chamber of Com
merce buildings.
Besides these larger structures the
firm has planned many schools and
private dwellings.
Warren, senior member of the firm,
has been in business here for 16 years.
He is graduate of Columbia univer-
sity and Auburn. When he left
school he became affiliated with McKim,
Mead and White, the last named being
Stanford White who was shot By
Harry X. Thaw.
Educated in private studios of New
York, Knight came to Birmingham in
1902 when he Joined Weston. His
largest contract during this period of
association was The Age-Herald build
ing, which required year and a half
steady work in itself.
- Davis Was Athlete
Followers of athletics in the south
will remember Davis of Auburn, the third
member of the firm. During his stay
at the southern institution he was
picked on the All-Southern eleven for
four years, captaining the Auburn
eleven in his last year. He also
held the pole vault record for four
years. Following his connection with
Weston, Davis went to Philadelphia
and later to Detroit. In Detroit he
superintended the designing of the Real
Estate Exchange building, 20 story
structure, and the Fisher Body Manu-
featuring plant.

Mr.. Knight is of the opinion that The
Age-Herald building is the most solidly
constructed building in the south.

responsible for that but also the ma

and solid nature known in building con-

Knight and John layers Davis, now
in partnership, are the only two men
whose architectural work concerned the
building now in Birmingham. The
contract was awarded to William c.
