It isn't the initial cost; it's
the upkeep that counts.
Every man thinks his own
the best-or pretends he does.
There's something about
having one that makes a man
feel nightly important.
When the country hotel
keepers see you coming with
one they put up the price of
everything.
Lots of people think second
hand ones are just as good.
Anybody can get one, but
it takes a master hand to

Of course, it's not a cheap
venture any way you look at
it-but the best economy is
to get a good one.
When a man gets a new one
he can't talk about anything
else.

Yearly Increase Shown.

Statistics show steady increase in
the number enrolled each year. The
figure furnished by the banks carry
ing clubs for the year 1924 was 1885.
For the year 1925 the number is
60,047, an increase of 20 per cent,
while il is expected that next wears
enrolment will show another great
increase.
The value to the business commun-
ity of these Christmas savings clubs
lies in the fact that several millions
of dollars is released to the general
public at the logical moment for max
ing their Christmas purchases
From the bankers standpoint the
chief value of their Christmas clubs
lies in the fact that it brings custom
ers into the bank who have never
had any financial connection, and edu-
Gates them in systematically accumu-
lating funds. A large percentage of
such new customers become per-
manent clients Of the institution and
develop business in other departments S
of the bank.
The District of Columbia Bankers
Association realizes the value to the
community of these clubs and also
that the Christmas club does not of
itself bring any appreciable profit to
the bank because of the limited time
that the funds are in their hands and
because of the expense involved in
handling small amounts. Neverthe-
less, they consider that the value to
the business community, and the
probability of permanency on the part
of such customers make the Christ
mas club we'll worth while.

LEAGUE COUNCIL
STATUS DEFINED
Now Will Be Unable to Avoid
Direct Judgment on Turk
iSh Frontier Issue.

BY Cable TO The star and New York World.
GENEVA. November. 21.-Any hopes
the council of the League of Nations
might have had of lodging RESPONSE
hility in the arbitration of the Mosul
boundary for fear Of either Turkey
or Great Britain might be dissatis-
fed has been blasted by the ruling
of the Hague Court upon the council $
status. The. decision was released by
Sir Eric Drummond today.
,Ehe Hague ruled specifically and
definitely that, in the first place. the
decision of the council will be binding
upon both parties and will constitute
definitive determination of the
Turkish Irakian frontier: second. that
the decision must be taken unani-
mously. with representatives of the
interested parties present and voting.
but their votes not being counted in
ascertaining whether the decision is
unanimous.
The sweeping decision makes it i'm
peratiye that the council at its De
cember session delimit the frontier
and also that both Turkey and Great
Britain accept the ruling or become
guilty of breaking their pledged word.
Defines Councils Status.
The court threw aside the assump-
ton that the councils status could be
interpreted as that of a mediator or
its decision as simply a recommends
ton and having decided that the
role was that of arbitrator. the judges
proceeded to define the duties of the
arbitrators and the obligations of the
interested parties who had appealed
to the League of Nations for settle
ment.
The affect of the decision is that
Turkey again is jockeyed into a hole
from which it cannot extricate itself.
Turkey now faces the necessity either
of accepting the boundary which the
council Is sure to delimit, probably
along the Brussels compromise line. or
to f1out the authority of the League
of Nations.
Duty of Enforcement.
The question also arises now as to
whether the members of the league
are obligated to support Great Britain
morally or actively should she under
take to enforce the decision, to which
the Turks might object.
That is the question which orig
inally caused Foreign Minister linden
of Sweden to insist upon the ruling
of the court. Fundamentally there
has been great satisfaction in Geneva
over the non-pusSyfooting action of
the court. The LoCarno and Greco
Bulgar cancellations have given a
great boost to the confidence of Off
cials. They have the conviction that
with such statesmen as Austen
Chamberlain, Aristide BRAND, Paul
Hymans and DIR. linden, and with the
Germans soon cooperating whole,
heartedly and determined to use the
organization to the fullest extent
| there is nothing to be gained through
half hearted methods.

\ Officials Here Unworried.

Announcement that the Corcoran
Gallery of Art is to receive only a
part of the late Senator CIark's
famous art collection, failed to excite
any reaction here tonight.
In his will Senator Clark Specifi-
cally designated outstanding rareties
that should be offered TO the Metro
politan Art Gallery first and, should
they be declined, to the Corcoran Gal
lery of Art next. All of these were
accepted by the Washington gallery
after being refused by the Metropoli-
tan because of its inability to meet
the stipulated requirements for their
care.
In addition TO these bequests, repre-
senting the richest gems of the entire
collection, the will definitely stated
that the Corcoran Gallery of Art
should also be permitted to choose.
without restraint. 125 more paintings
and water colors, 90 more antiques
and 35 additional Persian rugs.
To comply with these provisions of
the will, a committee recently visited
New York for the Corcoran Gallery of
Art and made the stipulated selec-
tions. AS a result, it is understood
there is no fear in art circles here
that the famous collection left by
Senator Clark will not be properly
represented in the portion that is
coming to Washington

THE MAIL MAN MAKES
1T VERY HANDY FOR YOU

This morning as We were goint
through the mail, We received quite
a number of checks, deposits, reques
for statement, and other business
concerning banking, from customer!
from Stanley to upper Pahsamaro+
valley who are too busy at this time
to come to the bank In person.
Naturally, it set us to thinking a
long the line of Banking by Mail. and
huw much it would mean to YOU
now that spring is approaching and
spare time will be such a scarce ar.
ticle around the busy spots Of Cen
trail Idaho.
Banking by mail isn't new, on the
other hand it is probably as old as
the mail service itself -anc We are
really surprised that more of our
customers do not take advantage of
this short CUT to our bank, by way
of Uncle Sans carriers.
The first thing we do In the morn
ing here at the bank is to go through
the mail. That means that your let
ter gets immediate attention, and
that your business is taken care of
without delay. AS far as safety is
concerned, your check, note or de-
post is probably safer in the mail
than 1t would be In your pocket if
you came to town. The government
is mighty careful with the mail it
handles.
TH"- there's the saving of TIME,
an civ what we had
in mind whe. we l.lought of those
living at a distance this morning -
Banking by mail gives you more
time for work that won't wait.
If you are not already customer
of this bank. we invite you to open
an account with us today and keep
Central Idaho money in Central Ida
ho where it will benefit Central Ida

1t would please us very much to see
