thousand volumes wait to be placed
upon its shelves.
And the enthusiastic president of
the university, undeterred by earth
quakes and thousand obstacles,
stands looking down at the founda-

as if in vision he saw the work

the repository Of their learning, the
preserver of their language and the
alma mater Of their youth.
Nowhere in history shall we find
greater faith or finer courage than
this. Would it not be kindly
miracle if on that little hill a ma
ton were being reborn?

Here began the life of reason,
which left so yivifying legacy to
Rome, the Renaissance, and the en-

superstition and fear and became
consistent with maturity and con-

in the sight of God.
What a people, and what a his
tory! Egypt is an epic, Judea is q
tragic drama. Greece is a lyric
ode-exalted, beautiful and brief.
To know the Greeks, to see them
grow, almost in century, from saw
agery to civilization ard subtlety,
to linger with delight on their
achievement in government, in
science, in philosophy, in religion.
in literature and in art this in itself
is an education; all the world is

Let us sit down on this cool slab

throw aside all that we may and

Kern, before being dismissed as
a witness, was strenously questioned
by the court as to whether he con-
sindered the realty company solvent.
1.-THE company has no debts" he
said.
"And another company has been
paying the debts all these years?"
Dunlavy queried. what is it, just
a bookkeeping proposition?"
Eyes," Kern replied
"In which the bank and realty
company transfer debts from one
side of the book to the other and
doesn't pay them?"
"They are not paid" Kern replied.
The court asked Davis to give the
total expended by the bank in liqui-
dation of obligations owed stock
holders and creditors of the realty
company. Davis said this amounted
to $11711423. He said the first pay
ment was in 1921 and the last in
June 1, of this year.
Some detailed testimony of Davis
when questioned by Panther fol-
lows:
GLOW much was the last pay
ment?
A-That was in three payments:
$1,000 in the first one; $8,354.79 in
a second, and $4,000 in the third.
Q-IS that the last payment that
has been made by the bankP
A-June l, 1927, is the last pay
ment.
Davis testified that he examined
the books of the realty company
Thursday and that $378.41 was
owed. He said $3.50 was paid, which
wipes out the indebtedness

Detailed examination of Otto B.
Kern, former secretary treasurer of
the Elevator Realty Company, and
director of the j. F. Wild g. Co.
Bank, and Stephen M. Davis, ac-
countant, who investigated the
books, in Superior Court yesterday,
follows. Kern first was questioned.
Q-Was any entry made on the
books of the j. F. Wild 81 Co. carry
ing such payments as loans to the
Elevator Realty Company?
A-No,. sir.
Q-I will ask you to look at Ex-
hibit No. and point out the first
payment carried to profit and loss
after the reorganization of 1921.
A-That was Jan. 20, 1921.
Odd the j. F. Wild & Co. take
up payments so made by adding to
the value of the common stock of
Elevator Realty Company held by
it?
A-They did.
did the bank ever get its money
back?" the court asked, to which
Kern replied: "No, sir"
ION any of these payments that
they paid ever since 1921 and 1922"
Dunlavy queried.
mo, sir" Kern answered.
Fainter then asked Kern If this
was charged to profit and loss, and
Kern said it was.
Kern told that two years ago the
bank paid a repair bill of $4,000 on
the elevators in the building. He
said there were numerous instances
where expenses of the company
were charged to the bank.

Q-Now, your statement showing
that the amount owing on Nov. II
was $378.4T and that since then a
check of $3.50 has been received
which entirely wipes out the indebt-
edness does not take into considera-
ton either the liability to preferred
stockholders for the dividend due
Sept. or any possible liability to
the j. F. Wild Company for the
$117,0 worth of payments made by
it during the period from 1922 to
June /, 1927? That does not take
those two factors into account?
Alt does not.
Total More Than $171,OOO
Daily then asked the court to
make that account page part of the
court records. Davis said he wanted
to make a correction-that he had
omitted the 1926 advancement.
"Then the total is more than
$117,00O?" Dunday asked.
eyes, sir" Davis replied.
The court instructed him to give
the actual indebtedness to the bank,
to which the witness replied that
cit was considered indebtedness"
He said it was called advance
mentS."
Whatever you want to call it."
Dunlavy remarked. "It is money
paid by the bank"
Davis said it amounted to $17l,-
204.17.
Davis said the account books Of
neither company show that this
money is an obligation owed by the
realty company to the bank. He
told Dunlavy the records showed
the money paid by the bank to the
realty company, but does not show
it was repaid.
'It was paid for the Elevator
Realty Company" Dunlavy asked.

holders for the Elevator Realty
Company" Davis replied.

"This was paid by the bank and
so far, the bank has never received
any Of that money back?" the court
queried.
"They never have" was the an
swer.
He stressed the point that the
record Of this is entered on the
banks profit and loss account.
Panther then asked the following
question: will you explain the
bookkeeping effect of the payments
made by the. bank aggregating
over $4,000 in liquidation of obi
cations of the Elevator Realty
Company"
Bank Owned Stock
A-The bank owned all the COM
mon stock. AS common stockhold-
erS, the amount of money con-
tributed to the realty company was
considered paid In surplus. This
paid in surplus represented their
equity or cost of their own common
stock.

Q-The only was that the pay-
ments made by it, aggregating $780,
600 odd dollars, were reflected on
the books of the two companies was
in the increased value. if any, which
these payments caused the common
capital stock standing in the name
of the j. F. Wild g. Co. TO assume?
A-That is right.
Testimony given by witnesses
named the following persons
directors of the realty company:
.Tohn j. Appel, real estate dealer, L.
@. Wild, j. F. Wild and Kern.
Those named directors of the
bank are: L. G.. and j. F. Wild,
Kern, j. Craig Fisher, w. F. Nc
Nary, D. F. Miller and Don Smith.
Kern told the court that Eugene
H. Iglehart, who with Richard
Lowther is a co-receiver of the bank,
said the realty company would be
turned over to the stockholders.
Kern said Iglehart declared he
would vote the common stock in any
way the directors desired.
