His Own Death Notice
Made Foe His Friend

London.-Sir Charles Phillips, dis
tinguished art critic who died recent.
ly, had the unusual experience once Of
reading the proof sheet of his own
obituary notice, thereby finding that
the writer, who had been a lifelong
enemy, could be fair In death.
On the staff Of the newspaper foi
which Sir Charles wrote art criticisms
was another critic whose work in.
variably clashed with Phillips. So
antagonistic were their views they
ceased to be on speaking terms. The
day came when Sir Charles was seri.
ously Ill, and, to be prepared for
eventualities, his obituary was writ
ten. and by his old-time antagonist.
This notice, by reason of Its slug
line, phillips" and through one of
those accidents which happen on the
best regulated newspapers, was mista-
ken for one of Sir Charles own con-
tributions and forwarded to his home
for correction.
When convalescent he was allowed
to see the correspondence which had
piled up and among II was the proof
sheet. Sir Charles found his enemy
not only had been eulogistic but par
ticularly sympathetic and discerning
For years afterward this writer of the
notice and its subject were fast
friends.

vASSAR SHOWS UP WELL
IN CROSS-COUNTRY RUN

Coach Iverson of the University Of
Minnesota discovered some real live
material which will be very valuable
to him in his efforts to build up q
winning cross-country squad as a re-
suit of the second all "U" run Thurs
day.
Wexman. a freshman, again led
the barriers covering the five mile
course in 27:20. One of our own
boys, Hector Vassar, who is also a
freshie, placed eleventh on the run.
With little more practice which will
gradually add to his endurance, Vas
sar no doubt will be able to compete
with the rest and win a place on the
"U" squad.

Knight Pythias' Annual
Halloween Ball Success

Everybody who is somebody
seemed to be headed last Monday
night for the X. of P.'s annual Hal
loween ball at the Arcadia. This
event is always awaited with pleasant
anticipation by Twin Cities trippers
of the fantastic toe and they were
beautifully rewarded by an evening
of rare delight.
Mrs. Phyllis Gordon was crowned
queen of the ball and was presented
with a new $1,000 goldpiece.
Much credit for the success of this
entertainment goes to the different
committees and especially to Boyd
Crawford, chairman of the arrange
ment committee.
Two hundred couples voted the af-
fair brilliant success. Come again,

BANKS OF GERMANY
SWINDLE YANKEES
Marks Left on Deposit Are
Eaten Up by Charges.

Warsaw, Ind.--Hoosiers who specu
lated In German marks four and five
years ago at and 4 cents a mark
and who later speculated further IL
the hope of covering up their losses
when the mark continued to drop ir
value, have given up all hope of ever
retrieving even small portion OF
their losses as a result of letters now
being received from German banks
where the spectators have their
marks on deposit.
Several months ago, the depositors
were notified no interest would be
paid on deposits of less value than
$25 in American money at the time
the letter was written. Many Of the
spectators who had converted hun
dreds of American dollars into marks
at the time found the depreciation OF
the mark had decreased the value Of
their deposits to only few dollars Of
United States money, and so brought
them within this mo interest" rule.
Semi-annual statements being sent
to American spectators In marks are
being charged against the SPECTATORS
account at the rate Of 1,250, ,OOO, ,0OO,.
600 marks per letter.
The speculator who, a little more
than a year ago, bought marks at the
rate of 100000 for 81, has long since
been wiped out, so far as his deposits
In the German banks are concerned
His credit balance has been wiped OF
the books Of the banks.
A Warsaw man who, five years ago,
bought marks at cents each, depos
iting $500 worth of them in a Berlir
bank on the advice Of q foreign ex.
change broker, a year ago averaged
down" his holdings by buying more
marks at a few million for a dollar
Then came the climax and the mark
dropped in valuation to more than
four trillion to a dollar. The Warsaw
mans account in the Berlin bank,
representing a deposit of around $500
in American money, dwindled to 9
valuation of around So In United
States cash. As all semi-annual state
ments sent out by Berlin banks are
charged against the accounts of de-
positors and at the rate Of a trillior
and a quarter for each letter, the
Warsawan's deposit soon will entirely
disappear.
The Berlin banks, unlike Austrian
banks, decline to furnish American
depositors with deposit books, which
would eliminate the confiscatory pro-
cedure brought about by the render.
ing Of semi-annual statements.
