DepOsitOrs in Full This Week
On Thursday the Gallatin Valley
National bank began paying a divi-
dend of 20 per cent to its depositOrs.
This will pay all depOsitors in full,
which is an excellent showing for an
institution which closed its doors a
little less than II months ago. The
stockholders will hustle now to get
their own money. Before the bank
closed the stock was worth premium
of 80 per cent, so there is plenty Of
margin on which to go to make the
stockholders even. In other words,
with a capital stock of 100000 the
stockholders will get par value if the
bank should lose $4,000 in collecting
its assets. This is hardly possible
as all the claims held by the bank are
good. If it suffers a shrinkage of
$4,000 in making its collections that
will be a large sum, so it is reason
able too presume that the bank will
paw its stockholders $3.50 on each
dollars worth of stOck.-(33 years
ago.

Held SuperstitiOus Fear.
OF course Il should nave bid / no

fear of singleton, so, instead of
making the only sound bid on the

suit bid. None of US like singletons
at no trump, but they are not really
as bad as a few writer's believe them
to be, little worse than having any

barely even chances to stop the run
of a suit Of which you hold 2 or 8

for overtricks and 500 points for game

for going down on an unsound bid.
At auction the difference between
a sound opening bid Of / no trump
and an unsound l spade, provided
neither was opposed, would have been
only 273 points, instead Of $40 points,
showing the greater need Of sound

Great Chances

The blithe young year is romping
on, and prophets, with their gaze afar,
assure us that before it's gone We'll
be much richer than we are. Great
opportunities will rise, for those who'd
conquer flames for dimes, such chances
as no eager eyes have ever seen in
bygone times. ProSperity'S abundant
wave will in this new year reach its
crest; so let US plan and work and
save, and salt down treasure in the
chest. We all feel cheered by such
DEGREES, it rids US of a load of care to
know that coin will grow on trees,
and We'll be sure to get our share,
And it is true that every skate will
have his chance to nail some snaps;
but most of us will sit and wait for
luck to dump things in our laps. We're
banking on some fairy queen to come
along with lavish hand, and load US
with the good long green for which
we have not worked or planned. We
dream of finding gold or oil down on
a corner of the farm, and so we do
not pillow the soil, or ply the hoe with
strong right arm. The seerS have said
the year viii bring great boonS and
blessings in its train, and SO we gam
boil and we sing, for work is neither
safe nor sane. And when this year,
grow old and frail, is dying meath
the wintry skies, Wen hear again the
same old tale--the busters gathered
every prize. This year may offer
every chance that any year has ever
sprung. for you to profit and advance,
and get there while you still are
young; the year may show you, as it
goes, such glories as will strike you
dumb; but it should find you on your
toes, to grab the chances as they
come. WALT MASON.

BELL GETS BEHIND
INDUSTRIAL PLAN
Approves Chamber of Com
merce Exposition to Boost
Local Enterprises.

Identification of Washington should
proceed without restriction, but not
at the cost of the economic advance
ment of the National Capital Engi-
neer Commissioner j. Franklin Bell
declared today IN an Endorsement of
the Chamber Of Commerce industrial
exposition to be held next month.
Approving the annual exhibition
sponsored by the chamber as an effec-
tive means of directing attention to-
ward the need of taking practical
steps to upbuild Washington COM
mercially. Commissioner Bell said he
believes the city can go forward in a
business way without in the least in
terfering with the plan to make it
a still more magnificent Capital.
Endorsement given the exposition
by the Commissioner was emphatic.
His approval of the exposition, SEIZED
uled for Marchc to 10 at the Wash
ington Auditorium, was voiced when
Dorsey w. Hyde. jr., secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce, called to lay
before him the plan for furthering
the stimulation of local business
through the industrial display.
Efforts Are Compatible.
Efforts to improve Washington out
wardly and proposals to bring about
its economic development were viewed
by the Commissioner as being entirely
compatible.
THE Identification of the National
Capital must go forward undated"
he said. Nothing must be done
which will in any way interfere with
the progress of plans to make Wash
ington an even more splendid Capital

"On the other hand. we must moi
neglect that very practical aspect
of modern life, which says that a
healthy community must have an
outlet for its surplus energy, points
of contact where its youth may find
opportunity for livelihood and units
which will provide a fundamentally
strong bulwark upon which to build
sound economic structure. In so
doing a very clear and well-planned
course must be followed"
Industry Near City.
Commissioner Bell pointed out
that development may take place
within and without the District of
Columbia" and indicated that he
believed there is a very definite
place within the city for a goodly
number. of commercial endeavors
which now are not to be found here.
There is, similarly" he added, "a
