vices" and offered for sale to 9TH
er bankers, even to himself again.
Zone doesn't have to talk to
Mr.. Ewart very long to discover
that he not only places a high
value on bank advertising, but
thoroughly enjoys the writing of
ads. What's more he doesn't con-
slider it difficult job. On the
contrary, he thinks, apparently,
that every banker ought to be as
ready, willing and able to put his
message on paper for an ad as he
is to talk it across the counter or
over the desk. In this he is no
different than many another chief
executive who considers adver-
tiving essential to banking and
the printed word just as impor-
tant, if not more so, than the
spoken word. More and more are
coming around to that way of
looking at advertising. Even the
great A. P. Giannini with all his
diversified interests and activities
keeps close eye on his advertis-
ing, isn't too busy to see his adj
vertising manager several times a
day if necessary.
'sBack in the depth of the de-
preston Mr.. Ewart ran the fol-
lowing ad in nearly half-page
space and it attracted such wide
spread attention that people,
many of them travelling sales
men, came in for extra copies:
KEEP YOUR SHIRT ON,
BROTHER!
America Is Not Going Out of
Business
"This Truth Within Your Mind
Rehearse to Talk Hard Times
Only Makes Things Worse"
CITIZENS STATE BANK
w. w. Klingman, Pres.
L. r. Ewart, Vice Pres.
And, here's another that ran it
a. close second:
Is 1T NOT SO?
We have the same God Almigh-
ty running the Big Works, with
the same old Sun to guide us by
day and the same old Man in the
Moon to show us the way by
night, with no change in our nat
ural laws.

ticIe, almost in this identical
form, appeared in the November
C issue of "The Commercial West

WITH ALL THE TALK now
adays about the banks going in
more strongly for public rela-

an institution with its executive

make that bank really outstanding
in its field. Redwood Falls has
such a prize in its Citizens State

"While L. r. (Lou) Ewart, ex-

STRAND

Warner Brothers Strand theater presents another dandy double fea- lure program, starting today. head: lined by Robert Montgomery ana Myrna Loy in "Petticoat Fever"
 Adapted from the successful stage play of the same name, "Petticoat Fever" concerns a young wireless operator in an ice-bound Labrador station. He is so lonely that, when Q beautiful young girl flier and her male escort run out of gas and make a forced landing nearby, nc holds them prisoner rather than face another Arctic night alone.
 That he should fall in love with the girl is inevitable, as 1t is that they should be confronted by suc- cession of comic situations in view of the fact that the flier is engaged to her blustery English companion.
 The story runs its merry course, with the young operator making re- markable romantic headway, when his one-time fiancee. a girl who stood him up two years before, ap- pears on the scene, intent now upon marrying him.
 The companion feature is "Spe- ciaI Investigator starring Richard Dix. Margaret Callahan and Eric Rhodes.

POLICE, DIRECTORS
 AGREE ON SIGNALS
First Car in Funeral PrO- sessions to Flash
 Headlights

The Connecticut Funeral Direc- tors Association announces that the Connecticut Association of Police Chiefs has adopted a resolution in answer to a request from the fu- neral directors, requesting the driv- CT of each car in @ funeral process sion to light his headlights while in the procession. The lighted head lights will be recognized as an err1- biem of @ funeral procession.
 This is done with the hope Of se-. curing the courtesy of the right 0f way for the procession and to easily designate to the public and police officers the cars that should be al- lowed to proceed without interrup- ton.
 This resolution Is intended to take effect at once and it is hoped that all funeral directors will adopt this plan as requested. We understand that this has been successfully tried out in e number of places not only in Connecticut but in several other states.

mortality in which some 200 fe- males die to each 100 males, the critical ages beginning at 50 years. Modern treatment of this disease has greatly advanced this critical age. Cancer is another disease which begins i'm young adult life, that is about 70 years, and which is distinctly Q disease more fatal among women than men, some 129 women dying for each 100 men taken by cancer.
 On the other hand, MT. Welling pointed out, accidental deaths kill 200 males for each 100 females. The sex ratio from accidental drowning is 66O males to 100 fe- males, for auto fatalities $40 males to 100 females. In the last six months of . typical year, which includes the vacation season, 24O men are killed by accident for each 100 women dying in such condition. If the medical exami- ner is called for an accident, the odds are almost three to one that it is for inquiry into the death Ol Q man.
 Likewise, males are more prone to lobar pneumonia than women although the sex ratio is about even for bronchO pneumonia, and 2 neglected common cold may de- velop into pneumonia at any sea- son of the year, MT. Welling warned.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1936-06-25

Although there may be varia- tions from year to year, it Is g basic and underlying biological principle of mortality that more men die than women, the ratio being about no male deaths for each 100 female deaths, 1t was ex- pIalned by William 0. Welling, di- rector of the Bureau of Vital Sta tistics of the State Department of Health, in the departments weekly broadcast today. It is also true, however, he said, that 1O7 boys are born to each 100 girls, SO that the unfavorable death rate for males is not quite as un- favorable as 1t appears at first glance.
 Some causes of mortality are favorable or unfavOrable to either sex, MT. WelIing continued, ex- pIaining as an example that while tuberculosis kills some 13O males to each 100 female victims some 200 girls die of tuberculosis to each 100 boys in the age group lO-10 years of age. Thus, while tuberculosis generally kills more males than females, adolescence holds far graver possibilities for the disease among girls. This is . warning note, MT. Yelling de- clared.

PARADE TRAGEDIES
 CARNIVAL OPENING
St. Francis Drum Corps Heads Units of Sacred
 Heart Parish

Attracted by 6 huge street parade which heralded the opening of the an- nual bazaar sponsored by the par ishioners of the Church of the Sacred Heart, hundreds of persons hocked to the grounds of the parochial school on Wolcott street last evening. The affair will be con. tinued until next Monday night with the exception of Sunday evening and 1t is expected that people from all sections of the city will take the first opportunity to get out east and enjoy at least one of the evenings among a gay crowd assembled in the carnival atmosphere.
 One of the special features of the event will be kiddies matinee to be held on Saturday afternoon at which time the youngsters will find that a special and general reduc- ton in prices will be in effect. Rev. Henry Quinn, pastor of the parish, is greatly interested in the chil- dren's program and has asked the committee to arrange for a variety entertainment and other special fa- vors. The youngsters will find that there will be plenty of ice cream. candy and various novelty boot hs soda pop, lemonade and hot dogs. Candy and various novelty booths will be located about the grounds. The exceptionally large crowd that attended the opening last night were thrilled at the multi-colored lights and attractive decorations, especially the color and design of | the booths. Flood lights installed on | the roof of the adjoining building served to illuminate the scene.
 The young people present enjoyed their share of block dancing to the music of one of the city's best known
 orchestras, and so popular was this concession that the committee In charge decided that dancing will be 1 held every evening for the re- mainder of the event.
 The ceremonies were opened with a parade of the parishioners which
 started at St. Mary's school grounds
 on East Main street, led by St.
 Francis xavier's fife and drum corps. At this point all lights were
 thrown on and the spectacle of the season was opened officially.
