OFFICER INTRODUCES BANKER
TO HIS MIUMONAIRK DRIVER
Charlotte, N. C., April 1.?When
a high officer of the United States
army from Camp Greeno appeared at
the teller's window of a Charlotte
bank the other day to have his
monthly pay check cashed the president
of the bank recognized him and
invited him to open an account 1n
that bank.
"My account." replied the officer,
"would be worth little to you. I have
only my salary as an officer, but If
you will go out with me to my automobile
I will introduce you to ray
driver. Ills account would be of
some use to your bank, lie is worth
more than $2,000,000."
