Property Tax Collector Ralph
w. Tucker, ST., did good bust
ness last night receiving payments
on property taxes. About SIS paid
their taxes yesterday, it being the
final day for payment before in
terest charges were added.
Mr.. Tucker estimates there are
still about SIS out of the $50 to-
tai required to pay who have not
yet done SO. Auto owners who
have not paid have until Sept. Is
or 60 days after theh tax becomes
due before they will be reported
to the state motor vehicle depart
ment.
Interest charges accumulate each
month so those who have not vet
paid will save money by paying
soon, the collector points out.

 He lit another cigarette sullenly.

 Jeanne looked at him in aSton- ishment. There was not an iota of concern in his voice; only vexation. He went on: i've arranged for Q divorce. On the quiet, of course. People are inclined to be sentiment tai about such things. So" Jeanne dared not trust herself to speak. She was choked with the contempt she felt for him.
 She managed, Will you excuse me, Jeff? I've bit of headache. Some other time we can have . longer visit"
 But" She didn't let him speak. Goodbye, Jeff," she said, and left to him to find his own way out.
 A little while later Frank came in, and found Jeanne lying on her bed upstairs.
 Sick, darling?" he asked tender ly. He sat down beside her.

 Jeanne sat up very straight. "His wife?? Why, Frank, she's" She stopped. Frank said, "He told me he'd look you up. You'll be glad to see him, won't you?"

Energy Received From Sun
Measured by Pyrhelimete

The energy received from the sun
Is measured by means Of q device
known as the ''pyrhelimeter." II con.
sists Of a small tube. at the bottom OF
which is q blackened disk Of silver.
The disk contains a tiny reservoir of
water in which a thermometer bulb Il
immersed. The tube Is pointed at the
sun and the rate at which the water
heats Is measured. From this. the
amount of solar energy can be cal
culated.
The "sOlar constant" that Is. the
average amount of heat received each
minute upon square centimeter of
the earth's surface. turns out to be
1874 calories. "a calorie is the amount
Of heat needed to raise the tempera-
ture of a cubic centimeter of water
one degree. A centimeter Is about a
third Of an inch.)
AS has been pointed out. 1874 cal
cries seems a small figure. But 1t is
necessary to remember the size Of the
earth. We are asked to imagine a sill.
yer disk one mile square enclosing $50
tons Of water. The sunlight falling on
this disk. we are told. would raise the
temperature Of the water from the
freezing point to the boiling point In
one minute.

BANK DEPOSITS WERE
SAFEST INVESTMENTS
High Government Official Sage
No Investments Except u. 8.
Bonds Suffered as Little Lose
as Deposits in Closed Banks

WASHINGTON. D. C.-No form of
investments except Government bonds
suffered as little loss as deposits in
closed banks during the years 1882
80. Jesse H. Jones, Chairman of the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation.
declared in a recent address.
"A point generally overlooked in
connection with bank failures in this
period. is that upon the whole. depos.
itors In closed banks will get . some
what larger percentage than has been
true IN bank failures over q period Of
say twenty-five years." Mr.. Jones said.
Heretofore they have gotten about
$3.50. but in these Wholesale bank clos.
ings. my estimate IL that they Win.
upon the average, get about 659s a
their deposits.
Another point worthy Of mention
II that deposition in a closed bank
loses only a part of his deposit. while
the bank stakeholder loses all, plus Q

Leap Year Devised to
Overtake Father Time

Every leap year laymen and sci.
entists alike have the opportunity Of
watching the efforts Of the calendar
to catch up with Father Time. Once in
four years our Anticipated calendar
must somehow gain day to make
up the six hours lost each year. This
It does partially by adding a day on
what we know as leap year. Still the
calendar does not quite catch mp in
the race. There Is still eleven minutes
and fourteen seconds left unaccounted
for each year. Thus there exists cen
turial leap years. where another day
is added. These leap years, now al.
most forgotten, are those centuries
exactly divisible by 400. Three out Of
four century years. 100. 1900 and 1900
are common years. but 200 Is q
leap year. This plan matches the solar
year within % seconds.

SAOAo w RAOG4OS
ing the expansion of business activity.
Frequently in times past when our
country suffered from an economic de-
preston and consequent unemploy.
ment on large scale, the rise OF some
broad new industrial development,
such for instance as a new industry
like the automobile industry, has been
powerful factor in stimulating a re-
turn or an accelerated growth Of ma.
tional prosperity. Such a movement
means the creation of new wealth, the
employment of large groups of people
on useful lines and as a consequence
the production and distribution Of
sound, effective purchasing power,
which is form of wholesome eco
nomic stimulant that has none Of the
evils of monetary imitation.
A New Force for Business Improvements
Perhaps we have at hand. If not the
rising OF a wholly new industry, .
measurable equivalent in the potenti-
alities of widespread rebuilding and
undermining movement such as home
renovising, plant remodeling. the put
ting Of our railroads on high speed
air conditioned basis and other valua-
BILE developments in the construction
field. The effects of such activities on
employment and many lines of bust
ness would be most beneficial and I
can repeat without reservation that We
bankers are willing and eager to play
our full economic part in any such con-
structive developments.
It has been made to appear that
money has not gone to work because
Of the timidity Of bankers rather than
what IL true explanation. because
business men have not had enough con-
fdence in the business outlook to Dor.
row the dollar from the banker and
put It to work.
The basic requisite to the expansion
Of commercial bank loans Is sound,
pormal business conditions on which
10 conduct sound, normal banking %.
erations. The best business bank can
wish for is the opportunity to loan
money to successful business men and
manufacturers imbued with confidence
to enter upon aggressive business on
terprises and endowed with the ability
to bring them to successful conclu-
sions. Such loans mean business &C.
tivity for the community, growing pay
rolls and prosperity. and the banker
wants to make them because to be
identified with such activities not only
means profits to him but, additionally,
brings him the reward Of good will in
his community.
There is no better proof of the great
desire of banks to take care of the
short term requirements of the bust.
