The ancient game of bowls is
coming into its own as a
spectacle.
Tomorrow will be held in Wash
ington three duckpin contests, each
distinctive in form, that were ar
ranged as much for the purpose
of entertaining the fans as the
participants.
It is confidently expected by
the managers of the alleys on
which these matches are to be
rolled that hundreds will witness
them. Hundreds probably will.
The fans have been jamming the
alleys lately to see interesting
matches.

LEGENDS OF THE AIR

In regard to prophecy of air service across the At
lantic 20 years the Toronto Globe quotes remarks
that Lord 1ennyson said something of the kind 50
years ago when he had "dpt into the future far hu
eye could see and
Saw the heavens filled with commerce, argosies
of magic sails,
Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down
with costly bales
Was this prophecy, pure and simple, or a bit OF that
mysterious race memory into which poets sometimes
to dip?
We pride ourselves the novelty of our inven-
tions, and think IN the worlds history any
people so scientific and wonderful. Yet there
Oriental legends which through the centuries have al
refused to down. that the people of Atlantis that
continent supposed to have been submerged beneath
what is the Atlantic Ocean, and from which the
ocean gets its had not only arplanes but many
inventions far beyond are beyond the
means OF transportation in the middle ages.
The people persisted these legends tell because their
moral and spiritual natures not fitted to cope
with materially advancing minds This may, of
course happen likewise, but if there any safety
IN analogy, have some hundreds of thousands OF
years yet to go. Meantime might just possibly grow
up out of present chdishness in the conduct of

BANKS TO ADOPT
FEE SCHEDULE
LOCAL BANKS NOTIFY THEIR
CUSTOMERS OF SERVICE
CHARGE POLICY

In manner which perhaps no
one can exactly explain, the Gus
toners Of country banks have
learned to go to them for innum-
cradle forms of service for which
mo charge is made. While some
of these services have been trivial
Others have required time and were
of nature to cause actual ex-
pense to the bank. And while the
average banker, somewhat in COM
mon with the average country
newspaper man, is glad to render
these services to the extent that
his time and expense account will
allow, virtually all of them have
found that the demands often go
beyond the limit in encroaching
on their time. Very nearly all
country banks have now adopted
schedules of small fees for these
services. The Wolf Point banks
are just about the last to adopt
the policy of charging something
for drawing papers, writing let
ters, clerking sales, and keeping
books on small checking accounts.
Effective August l
The First National bank and the
First State bank Of Wolf Point
say that they are now notifying
their customers that they are
forced to adopt this system to pro
tect themselves against actual loss
from this source, and are sending
out schedule of specific charges
that will be made. In some cases
these will become effective after
July IS, and in others after Au-
gust 1, 1926.
Mr.. Listug of the First Nation
al and Mr.. Rathert Of the First
State in explaining the situation
say they desire to work no hard
ship on their customers and that
the schedules adopted are very
reasonable on each item. All we
ask, they say, is a slight compen-
sation for time and material re-
quired in transactions which are
Of service and convenience to our
but which bring US no
revenue. They feel that there
can be no criticism of the policy
they are adopting if the public
takes into consideration that
about one-fourth of the business
handled by a. bank is of nature
TO yield no revenue to the bank
unless a service charge is made.
