There are earrings-farge ear

the Mixtecs wore. Three funeral
urns were found in the dirt, be-
meath other objects. Their art is
definitely that Of the Zapotecs, as
is that of the stones with which
the tomb was constructed. This

the Zapotecs constructed the tomb,

Valuable Part High School Instruc.
Hon And To Adults In Night
Glasses

According to the annual report
OF the division of vocational edu-
cation the, state board for voca-
tlonal education has participated is
giving vocational instruction tc
! 1854 students during the school
year l932-33," T. E. Browne, state
director Of vocational education
states.
Ibis instruction is given to stu
dents in the regular high school,
VINO elect vocational courses stud
ents who are employed and can
come to school only part of the dav,
and adults who can only attend
classes at night.
OF this number 1860 were in
vocational agriculture. These
1850 students carried on
1913 separate projects at home,
where they applied to the actual
JOBS on the farm the knowledge OBJ
tanned in the classroom. On this
supervised practice work On the
farms the students last year, even
with the low prices, made a net
profit of $359,661,69, which is
more than the entire cost of teach
ing vocational agriculture in-North
Carolina.
Never in the history of the pro-
gram OF vocational education in the
state was the work so popular. 1t
was anticipated that the require,
ments of the school machinery act
that the levy for vocational work
must be countrywide, rather than
upon the districts as was the cass
heretofore, would cause many coun-
ties to discontinue the appropria-
ton. However, up to the presen,
time, not a single county has votee
to discontinue the work, and man,
counties are levying for from one tt
five additional teachers.
IF state and federal funds wer,
available the program of vocationa
agricultural instruction could b,
enlarged by from twenty-five tt
forty new departments, notwdth
standing the fact that the law pre-
vents the establishing of the work i,
counties where it was carried on i,
1925. This is the creates
compliment that could be paid t,
the work of the teachers of voca
tlonal agriculture" said MI.
Browne.
In the state relief program tn
teachers of vocational subjects tool
a leading part, distributing fooe
and seeds, supervising gardens ane
directing the canning programs.
In the governments campaign
tor cotton acreage reduction, 10:
teachers of vocational agricultur,
in so of the 81 cotton countie,
took an active part, co-operatin,

tent that the director of extension
made the statement that the pro.

Separation Of Banking.
The separation of commercial and
savings banking from investment bank
ing is one of the most important pro-
visions in the legislation and, on ac-
count of the large interests involved
1t provoked for some time very lively
controversy.
There is q general public impression
that the separation Of commercial and
investment banking ought to be made,
and ought to be made promptly. The
Democratic national platform, adopted
last year, specifically promised this
separation Yet it is doubtful whether
there Is q general understanding Of
5ust how many inconsistencies are In
volved in the combination Of CONNER
cial with investment banking.
As commercial banks entered the
field of investment banking, competi-
tion among them brought on intensive
development of securities departments
and when these departments were once
IN existence 1t was necessary to keep
them active hy constantly putting out

enactment of the Federal Reserve act

against the active and energetic oppo-
sition OF leading bankers and of q large
part Of the banking community. The
act of 1888 Is the greatest forward
step since the Federal Reserve act, and
do not fear to predict that the posi-
ton taken by Senator Glass this year
will be as fully and amply vindicated
as his great fight for the Federal Re-

Gated. His service to American bank

requires that an estimate shall be
promptly made of the amount likely to
be realized by the liquidation Of these
assets of the closed bank and the diff
ference between that estimated amount
and the amount of insured claims for
which the corporation is liable will be
set up at once as a loss and charged
to deposit insurance account which
will be replenished from time to time
by assessments levied against insured
member banks, one-fourth OF per cent
of their total deposit liability being
assessed against the members as often
as required to replenish the treasury
of the Deposit Insurance Corporation.
and to Offset its losses on account OF
insurance payments.
1t will thus be seen that the Deposit
Insurance Corporation will be profit

income derived from its services in re-
ceiverships and from the investment of
its funds, and its payments on account

AS the Federal Reserve Bank System
Is required to make large contr1bu-
ton to the original capital of the De-
pOSlG INSURANCE SOIpOTdLlUIl, IL IidS
been considered fair to require that,
after July l, 1886, two years later than
the commencement Of the insurance
deposit system no bank may remain a
member of that system without becom-
ing a member of the Federal Reserve
System. This requirement gives all
banks which are not now members OF
the Federal Reserve System ample time
for consideration looking to wise de-
termination of their future course, but
the sponsors of the legislation believe
that the result will be that all banks
which become members of the insur-
ance system will ultimately become
members of the Federal Reserve Sys-
tenn. This will tend to greater uni
f1cation of banking practice. and will
eliminate in the future a certain COM
petition in laxity that has existed in
the past as between Federal and State
authorities having supervisory respon-
sibility over banking institutions.
Other important provisions in the bill
are:
(a) Permitting national banks to es-
tablish branches in States which give
the same right to State banks.
(b) Prohibiting the payment of inter-
est on demand deposits and providing
for the regulation of interest on time

Why We Call Them

"Pothooks"

a STENOGRAPHEK wants to know
n why the characters he writes are
frequently referred to as "pothooks.
It Is said that Charles Dickens ID
the course of his struggle to master
shorthand, struggle which eventual
~ terminated successfully in his
ability to report the speeches and sec
sions of parliament frequently com
planned desperately about the pot
hooks as he characterized the hooked
strokes of the stenographic art.
That the term 'pothook originated
with Dickens. is. however. doubtful
II was actually an allnsion to the
hooks which were to be found over
every fireplace in England. and from
which actually hung the pots used for
culinary purposes.
Though originally the term poi
hooks" was more or less contempt
raneOus with the advent OF shorthand
In England, II has In the course OF
time acquired the additional connota
ton as reference to the crude char
acters formed by children In learning
