THE BANKER

The banker is business man
but. at the same time. he is pub
lie servant. He manages his in
stitution to earn dividends for its
stockholders. but it has now come
to be regarded as his duty to give
sound advice and perform many
services which result in no direct
addition to his earnings account.
He accepts the deposits of the
parents for the account of the baby
when it is born. He keeps the
funds and invests them as the
child grows. He advises the young
man when. in leaving school, he
enters business. His counsel Is
given with financial assistance as
the business develops. When his
client retires from it's management

Billy Evans Says

Too much success by the indi-
vidual, or team, in any branch Of
sport, takes the edge off enthusi-
asm.
The constant and consistent win
ner makes for monotony-tends to
kill interest.
sOne need only to hearken back to
the Athletics of 1914 for proof posi-
tive of such a Condition.
Connie Mack, famous manager CT
that team, broke up his winning
combination simply becaus" the pub
lie no longer thrilled at its many
brilliant performances.
In other words, the club was too
good for the rest of the field.
"What was the score today?" Back
il the days when the Athletics were
winning pennants and world cham
pionships, that was the Philadelphia
greeting when inquiring about the
bail game.
The thought that the AtHetic'
might possibly lose was given only
sli9ht confederation.
Instead OF inquiring as TO wne
won. the query related to the score
Philadelphia fans were SURPRISED

only when the Athletics were beaten,
victory was expected.
It is the unexpected that makes
for interest in any sport. For sew
eral years in New York clubs have
been hogging the spotlight in base
ball. This year the supremacy OF
the Yankees in the American League
is being strongly disputed.
The result, much enthusiasm
among the fans of other cities.
At the opening of the present
season, the experts picked New
York, Detroit, Cleveland and st.
Louis as the strength of the league,
the other four teams being classed
as the field, with merely an out.
side chance.
For the first eight weeks Of the
season the Boston Red SoX, tail
enders in 1923, provided the big
thrill by contesting every inch of
the way with the world champion
New York Yankees.
At the beginning Of the season
Manager Lee Fohl of the Red Sox
would only predict that his club
would not finish last. He didn't get
excited when things were going big
simply clung to his original proph-
esy, and now that the club has
slumped, repeats:
