TO THE FARMERS-ATLANTIC
BANK, AHOSKIE, N. C.
The following poem ?n received,
accompanied by a cheek of five dollar*
for deposit on their INAUGURATION
DAY, at the local bank one day this
week. The verses are original and
were written by a young lady of this
section, who is away teaching school:
?ACCEPTANCE?
An in-vi-ta-tion, did yon say,
For fourth of March, on Saturday,
To go to that great big red Bank,
When all -the grown-folka play and
prank?
I think it surely will be fine
To see the crowd in that long line,
And watch 'em come from miles and
miles,
A-bringing along their sweetest smiles.
But how about the "SAVING" part?
That sure does strike, close to my
heart
I want to meet the world right square
And keep my record _?lean and fair
O, what is it that I can do
To put this Banking business thro?
I've scratched my\ead and pulled nf
nose,
Thep hit the plan that always goes.
I'll cut pine wood for neighbor Jones
To warm the aches from out his bones
And shine the shoes of sporty Ned
Who sometimes stays too late in bed
I'll work the Mayor's awful street,
| And saunter on with dry-shod fee
! To plant a rose on every lot,
And make the town a beauty spot.
; I'll patch some pants and guess 'twas
Right
That spanked 'em through in such
plight;
I And make a dress for hifeh school Jane
[ That will not rip in sun or rain.
'
, Then with my "SAVINGS" in a hank
I'll hasten onward to the Bank,
[Quite ready for play and fun,
Content with work that was well done

Washington.?The proportion ft mar
ried man to tbt. total male population
> of the country flfteon years of age aud
oyer Increased from 55JS par coat to
(58.2 per cent la the ion years preceding
i the 1820 census, according to a couj
, pUattou 4f marital statistic# made pub
' Uc by the census bureau,
i "Kite bureau believed, however, that
I this was probably more Indicative of a
> change la the age composition of the
1 population?an Increase In the percent
age of mates between fifteen and
twenty-live years of age due to In
creased immigration?than a growing
propensity to matrimony.
Of the total male population of 53,
800,481 above the fifteen-year classifi
cation the census figures showed 21.
848,288 married, 1,158^08 widowed and
285,284 divorced, the latter figure, how
ever, Including none divorced and re
married. The divorce total showed an
increase of 20 per cent In Ua ratio to
the total population during the ten
year period, constituting six-tenths of
1 per cent of the Utter against five
tenths In 1810.
Although due to the nbnence of the
wives of many foreign-bora residents,
the number of married women was
shown to be about 500,000 leas than the
male total, the number of divorced
women exceeded men by approximately
40,000, representing closely the differ
ence between the number of men and
women remarried after divorce.
By states, Massachusetts led the field
in the proportion of single women with
a percentage of 84.4, although .the Dis
trict of Columbia exceeded this with
97.3 per cent. The census bureau point
ed out, however, that the ratio, of men
to women in the population "naturally
has a very Important bearing on the
proportions of single men and women."
Wyoming led with 70.5 per cent in the
proportion of married women, while
62.8 per cent was shown for Mississippi
and Arkansas, and the smallest, 45.8
per cent, for Nevada.'
