I -list week idle rumors were afloat in Columbia reflecting seslously upon the soundness of one of the banks there. A mild run wa* started on the bank ami depositors, mostly small ones and some large, began forming in line to withdraw t hei ' funds. Then by reason of the modern way of bank ing. the suspected bank suddenly be I nine' the strongest bank in the state. In addition to being sound of its own resources, the Columbia clearing 1 1 on so association, an organization of the banks in Columbia, investigated the affair of the suspected hank, discover ed that the rumors were without foun dation, and issued a statement guaran teeing every penny of every deposit. Thus backed by all the other banks in Columbia, the bank under suspicion be crime ns strong as the combined strength of all the banks. It Is stated that on the day of the run, dejvoslts exceeded withdrawals, although the bank remained open an extra hour in the afternoon to accomodate those who wished to withdraw their funds The action of the Columbia banks shows a fine spirit of co-operation and serves a> a <u>rt of sledgehammer blow to people who start idle rumors, which have not the seiVMance of foun dation. but which may !do much harm and <-rt is?? gresf losses -\nd mffrring. ; ? - ' "To peddle lli 1h sort of gossip, " says the Columbia .Accord "Is quite as bud us to shout the alarm ol' fire in a crowded theatre."
