Which Will You Select?
A LTHOUGH the fees allowed by the Pro
bate Court are about the same whether
administration of estates is by an indi
vidual or Trust Company, yet the total
cost allowed for individual administration Is shown
by statistical neports to be nearly twice as much
as that for a Trust Company.
This Is because of that elusive Item "other ex
penses." The ordinary individual Is III equipped to
administer even the average estate and necessarily
r?. must incur expenses which a Trust Company can
easily avoid. Consider alsq that our comparison Is
for “allowed expenses” only and takes no account
of those substantial savings which a Trust Com
pany makes through its superior knowledge of
J values and markets. Oftentimes such savings on a
single transaction are more than .enough to cover
the total cost of Trust Company service.
It is not at all surprising therefore, that to many
Wills being written today provide for a Trust Com
pany as Executor and Trustee Instead of some friend
or relative. Neither is it surprising that so many
thoughtful men and women are changing existing
Wills In this important regard. ’
Which will you select. I'f you realize the advan
tages of businesslike administration, impartially
and economically rendered, there can be but one
answer. Our Trust officer will gladly discuss the

LET EACH SIGN FOR HIMSELF
Let not custodians of Democratic
club dolls, in the re-enrollment of
this year, be over ready to sign for
citizens who may inscribe their names
but slowly or even illegibly. That
were mistaken kindness.- If the sig
nature be' hard to decipher, no harm
follows; for the rules themselves pre
scribe that in such case the secretary
shall write the name beneath in clear
characters.
Constrain the least literate to “make
his mark,” except he be altogether
unable to sign for himself, and there
is put upon him a measure of humilia
tion, which impairs in his own eyes
his worth and dignity as a man and
cheapens for him the act of qualify
ing to exercise his suffrage. All who
have seen the wonders wrought by the
lay-by schools* for adults are agreed
that a remarkable accession of self-
respect is gained when a man who
has been wont apologetically to “make
his mark” is brought to “sign his
name.”
Secretaries, therefore, should dis
courage enrollment by cross-mark,
should on the contrary urge every
man to sign for himself and should
allow him for that purpose all the
time he may reuire. Haste in such
a situation indeed makes waste, waste
of manhood; and a bustling, officious
kindliness may be equally misplaced
and untimely.—The State.
