To say that a bank started with the ear ly builders of Clinton forty-one years ago, and has wprked constantly with them and their ancestors, in the development of a splendid city, means more. To say that this same bank today is pre pared to care for the business of a greater Clinton, means most. This bank is prepared today; as forty- one years ago, it looks ahead.

That would be seven million good reasons for American in tervention to keep out a government that they don’t want, as this country All of those private loans to South American republics, like loans thaj some of our bankers are making in Europe, are dangerous, especially when, as is usual, they arc thoroughly USURIOUS loans.

And, most important, she weighs 120 pounds. Your body is an irrigation farm. Your heart the pump. Your blood the water. A light body calls for light pumping, making the heart’s work easy. Cut down your weight, wisely, and add to your life. Every added pound means more work for the heart. The month of January, 1927, in which good resolutions are now ooz ing away, is to be “national laugh month.” Moving picture potentates and others have decided and "arranged it. Americans are to laugh, and thus keep up their “morale.” It would be better to locate laugh month in December. For looking back over eleven months of much promise, much resolving and little performance, laughing would be easy. There is such a thing as overdoing laughing, for laughing is like smoking. When you do either, you don’t think. And what the American people need is more thinking. J. N. Moore, University of Illinois sophomore, wrote, before killing him self, “It raises the devil with me to think of having to slave around and work like the devil and just grow old. I can’t see the idea of wading through school, then dash bravely out. and get a Kg^ld job at a hundred dollars a month.” In six words of his letter the young man explains what is really the mat ter with him, “I am just spoiled, I suppose.” If all the spoiled children in this foolish country committed sui cide, there would not be enough grave yards. Mrs. Katherine Trilling, on trial for murder in Denver, married Herman Trilling in New York, when tubercu losis had reduced him to ninety pounds weight. She'worked in tailor shops to pay his expenses at a sani tarium for consumptives, then-sold her furniture and everything she had, raised a thousand dollars and took him to Colorado to Save his life. “She says she shot him by accident. The prosecuting attorney says she shot him purposely in the back -be cause she was jealous. What do you suppose the jury will say?

It ministers to the true development of trade. It is, no doubt, possible to waste money through wrong methods of adver tising, as it can be wasted through wrong methods in any department of industry. But rightfully applied, it is the method by which the desire is created for many things.” -Calvin Coolidge. / iitr* ' itv
