BANK EMPLOYEES SENT' TO SCHOOL - "odern Scientific Financial and Management Methods Taught Throughout Country. r T*HE American Institute of Banking Section of the American Bankers Association conducts 223 chapters, or local backing schools in as many cities throughout the country. One large city chapter has almost 6,000 siudents, v ho are combining formal theoretical and practical banking studies with their daily working experience and ether places have these schools with u thousand to two thousand students. In addition there are fifty study groups in small communities with some 6,000 enrollments. All told over 42,000 bank people are taking these courses—not only clerks, but junior officers and even senior officers in some of the more ad vanced work. t The work of the institute lias been declared to be "a dynamic economic force, pouring into banking a broaden ing, deepening stream of better quali fied bankers than could be developed merely by the daily workings of bank in;; itself," and it has been suggested that every bank worker should be com pelled to combine institute courses with his work. A good many banks now uiake it a part of the contract of employment that an employee shall undertake to render himself proficient and trustworthy in banking by taking institute work and filers make suc cessful progress in this educational aspect of banking a pre-requisite to promotion. Plans are being developed to make the benefits of banking edu- - cai.'cn through this organization more ; generally'available in the rural dis-; i trices, i i THE FOREST CITY (N. C.)

THE MACK AGE APPLIED TO CRIME * V Methods Employed by Crimi nals Demand New Police Methods, Bankers Associa tion Official Declares. ¥ TSE "by criminals of modern tech > nological developments such as automobiles, machine guns and air planes have gi»en them advantages which old-fashioned local and discon nected police systems are powerless • to combat and the situation demands the broader modern protection of State I police systems, James E. Baum, dep uty manager American Bankers Asso ciation in charge of its crime inves tigating department, declares in the ' protective section of the American Bankers Association Journal. L "The Association's Protective Com . mittee has repeatedly urged the ad . vantages of extending state police sys tems beyond the nine easterA States which have enjoyed this protection for " many years," Mr. Baum says. "The ' time has passed when we can safely 1 rely upon the disconnected and often times ineffective methods of local and county police. The advent of automo biles and better roads, to say nothing of machine guns and airplanes, de mands the same wide latitude in au thority and field of operation be given the police no less than the criminal." Statewide Pelice Plans Best He quotes a Kansas judge as saying that "our system of sheriffs and con stables was not designed to meet pres ent-day conditions. As a system of law enforcement, it is as out of date as old common-law pleading, both evolved about the same time. The semi-mili tary, highly trained State police officer owing allegiance only to State laws, is the most effective agency for order yet brought forth." "Every year the Tobbery experience of banks in the nine States having State police proves the merits and urgent need of State-wide police pro tection," says Mr. Baum. "Last year, for example, there were 38 bank hold ups in Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and West Virginia where State police forces are operated," he continues. "Although this total is exceptionally high due to an unprecedented number of robberies in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, it is little more than half the number of daylight bank robberies suffered in 3P30 in Illinois alone. Furthermore, this total of 3S robberies in the nine eastern States was exceeded in Cali fornia, where there were 42 bank holdups, and in Ohio where banks suf fered 40 similar attacks. Holdups Fewer Under New Flan "If we extend the comparison of the robbery experience in these States en joying State-wide police protection to the record in eight central and far western States, we find a total of 304 bank holdups in the latter group. The odds, therefore, continue to be not less than 8 to 1 against the banks in these western States, where they are denied the speedy, coordinated action of State ; police and their modern means of ; transportation and communication. , The same comparison holds true of the farmers' losses through robberies 1 of livestock, poultry, produce, etc. ' "Moreover, these State police forces invariably yield an operating profit in the amount of fines collected and the t value of stolen property recovered. Bankers interested in cutting down the cost of robbery insurance might well consider this job of extending State * police systems as a timely, co-opera- ( tive service to be undertaken along- £ side the farmers." e J NEW GRADE A DAIRY. f!'

The newspapers have been giv-' , 1 in& space to the following bit of ; E! conversation that a North .Caro j lina farmer had with his mule, as! i the two passed at the end of th:» c row, one day last spring: -j "Bill, you are a mule, the son -' of a jackass, and I am a man made j t in the image of God. Yet, here we, i work, hitched together year in and j 1 year out. I often wonder if you work j ! for me or I for you. Sometimes I j i think this is a partnership between ! - a mule and a fool. For surely I work ! . as hard as you, if not harder. Plow- j 3 ing here we cover the same distance, j 3 but you do it on four legs and I on : - two. So, mathematically speaking, I j 'do twice as much work per leg as f you do. 1 j "Soon we'll be preparing for a j 3 corn crop. When the crop is harvest-1 1 ed, I give one-third to the landlord for being kind enough to let me • use this corner of God's universe. "; The other third goes to you, and " what is left is mine. But while you consume all your third with the ex- j " ception of a few cobs, I divide my j 1 third among seven children, six hens, i • two ducks and a banker. Bill, you j : are getting the best of me; it ain't! fair for a mule, the son of a jack- j i ' ass, to rob a man —the lord of crea -1 tion —of his substance. And, come !to think - about it, you only help to ■ cultivate the ground. After that, I ' ; cut, shock, and husk the corn, while you look over the pasture fence and 'he-haw' at me. i i j "All fall and part of the winter { the whole family, from Granny down to the baby, picks cotton to , 3 help raise money to buy a new 3 set of harness and pay interest on ~ the mortgage on you. And by the 3 ' way, what do you care about that 3 mortgage? It doesn't worry you any. 2 Not a dai'n bit. You leave that to me, you ungrateful, onery cuss. "About the only time T am your j better is on election day, for I can i I vote and you can't. But if I ever get j any more out of politics than yo ? i do, I fail to see where it is." 1 Fresh, Clean Eggs, 3 Hot Weather Problem r Gather eggs at least once every * day and store in a cool place until r ! enough are on hand for marketing 1 is a timely hot weather warning to - poultrymen who would make raon -1 ey with their birds in summer. 9 "Usually, poultrymen with only a small flock of birds dispose of their ' surplus eggs once a week and this means a lowered price unless the eggs are kept in a cool place," says i N. W. Williams, poultryman in ■ charge of the flocks at State college. ' "Eggs are perishable. A fertile egg may become unfit for food within ! twenty-four hours because of the rapid development of the germ. Yet > an infertile egg may be kept for a week at a rather high temperature and still be satisfactory for human consumption. The pur pose of an egg is to hatch a chick but there is a decided distinction be tween an egg for food and an egg for hatching." Large, roomy nests, kept clean and dry, will help to prevent mouldy, dirty eggs, Mr. Williams says. In all ; markets the eggs are graded and j those that are soiled always bring j the lesser price. Some poultrymen j go so far as to permit their hens j to lay in the weeds or under out- j houses during the summer when usu- ; al poultry care is relaxed. Some do ; not gather their eggs until they are j; ready to sell. This is a bad practice ; • and will cut deep into the poultry! profits.- i During the hottest weather, eggs \ should be kept under the best of J conditions and if a case cannot be filled in three days, those on hand should be sold regardless, he sug- gests. It is especially important 4 keep the eggs fresh, clean and cool and gathering once a day will help i in this. It will also prevent many cracked eggs caused by two or three hens laying in the same nest and disturbing those eggs already in the nest. J 4 Nearly every farmer in Hyde cour.- ty has from one to two good family 4 cows and every farm produces an abundance of feed and forage crops, says J. G. Blake. * Why '"Pyrrhic Victory" The phrase. ;t "Pyrrhic Virtory'* is used to dcncie :i victory won at frt > mentions cost si it ! fefers to the battle of Asculuin, in which Pyrrhus. kins of Epirus. won a victory over tlie Uo mans while sustaining such heavy losses that he is said to have ex claimed, "Another such victory and Pyrrhus is destroyed!"
