Law, President American Bankers Association, Sees Im proving Conditions and a Changing Future WASHINGTON. D. C.-Tbere Is no good reason for pessimism today, for though the "depression is not by any means over we are coming out of It." P. M. Law. President of the American Bankers Association told the American Institute of Banking convention here recently. "Banking Is a necessary business and will endure." Mr. Law said. "In order to endure, It must be the right sort of banking, under the right sort of management. "The American Institute of Banking commands and Is entitled to great re spect because its major objective is to teach and promote the right kind of banking. One of the chief reasons tor my faith in the future or banking Is that this organization has 219 active chapters, with over 60,000 members, and with 113,000 stadents enrolled, and It Is doing a good job tn teaching these thousands of bank employees what good banking is, and what It is not" Businesi Men Should Recognize New Condition Business men everywhere, and espe cially bankers, be said, will do well to recognize and to understand the many changes that are occurring, for "it la fatal to be obsessed with the belief that any and all change from the exist ing order Is heresy." Banking Is a serious business, be said and "1 know not one single man or woman who has made a success of It who has not been over a long period of years a bard worker." He added: "Take for your motto the old German phrase 'Ich Dlea.' (I serve). Meaning what? Serve your depositors, your stockholders and society. "Let no man tell you that private ini tiative is dead. On the contrary, It com mands a greater premium today than ever before. If you and others like you hare courage enough, If you possess patience, if yon have a passion for hard work, and if, with an open nflnd, you look to and prepare for the future and tho opportunities which are sure lo come, you cannot be denied. Your gen eratlon will add prestige to the honor able calling that we know as bar.ktn?.' LENOXVILLE Mr..

First Aid. Life Saving, Nursing Care, Promote Health and Safety Five outstanding services make up the health-conservation program of the American Rod Cross, according to the annual report Just issued in Wash ington. These services are first aid and life saving, which together have trained more than a million persons; nursing, with an active enrollment of 36,133 registered nurses; Public Health Nursing, conducted by 750 nurses in 424 chapters last year; and Home Hygiene, which has taught more than 700,000 men and women simple ways of caring for the sick at home. "The achievements of the Red Cross in public health nursing place it among the leaders In this field," said James L. Fleser, vice chairman in charge of domestic operations. "This service was organized in 1919 to meet needs developed by the World War and the ravages of the flu epidemic which In 1918-1919 took so great a toll of life. "Since that time Red Cross nursing services have been pioneers in more than one halt of the counties in the United State. Many servioes we estab lished were taken over later by civic, state and federal agencies, and the Red Cross continues to establish serv ices In other new fields. Red Cross nurses made more than a million visits to patients last year, and 629,025 chil dren in schools were inspeoted. -"Red Cross courses in home hygiene and care of the sick are especially Im portant in times of depression, because they teach families to maintain hy gienic conditions in their own homes and to recognize symptoms of illness WELL KNOWN CITIZENS OF NEW BERN INDICTED New Bern, Nov. 5.

'Tittle Stories r Bedtrm bg TkartdonW y Smtgess mm BUTCHER THE SHRIKE tTllo Is 1 ..uUer VV n Hie Shrike?" asked Peter Babbit "He's new to the old Orchard," re plied Skimmer, -find you probably haven't noticed lilin. I've often seen hlra in the South. There Ue Is now, on the tip-top of that tree over yonder." Teter and Johnny Chuck looked eagerly. They saw a bird who nt first glance appeared not nnllke Mocker the Mockingbird. He was dressed wholly In black, gray and white. When he Butcher the Shrika. turned tils heart tlic.v saw a black stripe across the p.Me of his face and that t!ie tip or liis bill was hooked. These were enough to m;ike them forget that otherwise be w like Mocker. While they were hiking "t him he flew down Into the srass and picked up a grass hopper. Then for souse distance he Hew with a sternly, eren flight only a little above the j'm.iud, suddenly shooting np and returning to the perch where they had first seen him. There he ata the grasshopper and resumed his watch for something else to catch. "He certainly has wonderful eyes," said Skimmer admiringly. "He must have seen that grasshopper way over there in the grasses before be started after It, for he flew straight down. He doesn't waste time and energy hunting aimlessly. He sits on a high perch and watches until he sees something he wants. Many times I've seen him sit ting on top of a telegraph pole. I understand that Bully the English Sparrow has become terribly nervous since the arrival of Butcher. He Is particularly fond of English sparrows. I presume It was one of Bully's children you saw lu the thorn tree, Petw. For my part, I hope he'll frighten Rully Into leaving the Old Orchard. It would be a good thing for the rest of ns." "But I don't understand why be fas tens his victims on those long thorns." "For two reasons," replied Skimmer. "When he catches more grasshoppers and Insects t!:;m he can eat, he sticks them on those thorns so thnt Inter Ue may be sure of a good meal If It hap pens there are no more to be caught when he Is hungry. Mice, sparrows, and things too big for him to swallow, he sticks on the tVmis so thnt he can pull them to piei'i's more easily. You see, his foot and claws are not big enough to hold them while be tears them to pieces vviMi his hooked bill." "Does be kill ni!ny bird-?" asked Peter.
