HIDDEN DANGER
No ono !• more activo IA the campaign to persuade the automobile driver
to exercise the care, courtesy and common sense which will reduce the
appalling number of-accidents than Motor Vehicle Administrators. They
know the facts, ten of them, officers of National and Regional Associa*
tlons, have described the moet common driving and pedestrian faults.

Director, Motor Vehicle Division, Michigan. Vice-President, Region No. 3
| of American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators.
'THERE ts no thing * dangerous
j about an automobile properly
parked at a curb, tie motor silent
and its brakes locked. So far aa it
|ls concerned that car could stand
there until It feU apart^and no cas
ualty cOuld be charged against 1L
i- Yet. that same car la one of the
most dangerous traps known In mo
tor vehicle records. It Is a deadly
menace to the unwary pedestrian
and a threat to the motorist him
self. Death and injury surround K
at all times. This Is because heed
less pedestrians at intersections will
persist In appearing suddenly In the
roadway from behind It, directly
In the path of a moving automobile.
Last year, 35,000 pedestrians did
i that according to figures supplied
f by the National Bureau of Casualty
and Surety Underwriters. Of. this
I number, 1,460 were killed while the
.remaining 33,500 were Injured.
[ It happens sometimes that a ped
estrian must come out from behind
parked car which obstructs the
vision of the oncoming motorist. He
may be neir the crossing. In that
case there Is only one thing for the
pedestrian to do and that is not to
step out from behind that car until
he has seen that the passage both
ways ts safe. It Is also the duty of
the motorist to guard against Just
such an emergency.
You cannot make children play
ing on sldewajQcs think of danger
when they dart out in the street
Itself for a ball, a hoop, or any
other plaything. You cannot make
some pedestrians take their minds <
off business when they step froml
the curb. You cannot make persons i
cease talking as they go Into a sit
uation like this. All are thoughtless..
It Is the duty of the~motorlst al
ways to regulate his speed so as to*
guard against Just such a condn-
There are In the ^United States 168
banks that have been In continuous ex
istence for "more than one hundred
years. There are 2,472 banks over fifty
years old, while 64% of all the banks In
this country, or 10,391, are twenty-five
years old or older.
in otner words, practically two-thirds
of the banks In this country have come
through several successive periods of
depression and panic, including 1907,
1914, 1920 and 1929-33.
The Oldest Bank
The oldest bank in the country, which
Is in Boston, was chartered February
17.1784.
In the 64% of banks that are twen
ty-five years old or older is lodged
a major portion of the banking re
sources of th6 nation. In commenting
recently upon the stability of a great
majority of the banks In the Unite
States, Dr. Harold Stonier. Educational
Director of the American Bankers As
sociation, said:
“The fact that we have so many
banks that have been in existence a
long period of years is an eloquent
tribute to the genius of American man
agerial ability, for no other country
has experieneed such wild gambling
eras and resultant periods of business
stagnation as those through which our
country has passed at frequent Inter
vals dining the past century."

NEW WEALTH FROM SOIL
■Excavation* in utanbul
May Disclose Treature
FREE TUmON ^OR
New wealth which comes from the
. soil is of special interest to those to
whom falls the responsibility of main
taining our credit structure.
Unless agriculture is successful farm
borrowers cannot ultimately succeed,
neither can the banks they serve. Fore-
closeure sales are not a sound basis for
good farming or good banking. Bank
ers, therefore, are as much interested
in the permanent success of the agri
cultural Industry as are the farmers,
whether the deposits come .directly
from farm patrons, or Indirectly
through the ordinary channels of busi
ness.—D. H, Otis, Director of Agricul
ture. American Bankers Association.

HEROINE OF STORM
County Tres.
Istanbul—Excavations in the courts
surrounding the ancient Cathedral of
St Sophia, which will be undertaken
under the auspices of the ministry of
education and of art are expected to
Jr 8VIU UkJUo*
The cathedral stands in the very old
est part of the Acropolis, which was
built here in the Seventh or Eighth
century B. C. -■ ^
Later on the palaces of Constantine,
Theodosius, and Justinian wore erected
here. ‘ f
Subsequent emperors enlarged the
buildings and fitted them out with in
credible pomp and luxury-. "• .
It was here that Emperor Justlnos
II had hla golden dlulhg roqin, a colos
sal octagonal hall in which 300 banquet
guests could be accommodated.
The Magnaura, a palace to the south
east of the cathedra], contained a hall
with the golden throne of Salomo,
guarded by two giant lions of gilded
bronze and surrounded by a forest of
golden trees with bejeweled birds In
the limbs. v r-
By pressing on a button an elaborate
and complicated mechanism was set
"into operation by which the throne was
lifted, the lions caused to roar, and
the birds to sing. ~
This iq not a fairy tale; the facts
have been established by contemporary
visitors and by many serious historians.

— T’uCtnor Colo.—The heroine^of one of
4he nation’s most gripping tragedies—
the Towner bus catastrophe of March
26, 1931—is attending tile American
Business college free of tuition in rec-
cgnitiou of her bravery.
.Nineteen years old and exceedingly
pretty now, Clara Smith of Kiowa
county perhaps has been forgotten bj'
most of the fickle world which paid
tribute to her and Bryfin Untiedt for
their courage, but the proprietors of
the business college did not forget,.
Not only have they given her an un
limited course in the school but have
helped her in other ways to win an
education. She is taking a secretarial
course.
Clara wqs fifteen that day in March,
1931, when the heroism she and two
others showed caught the headlines of
newspapers all over the nation.
It was the story of twenty pitiful
children and a {courageous bus driver
pitted against the worst storm in the
history of- southeastern Colorado.
On the morning of March 23 Carl
Miller, thirty-three, driver of the bus,
took twenty laughing children to Mount
Pleasant school "under threatening
skies and with the mercury dropping
rapidly. The teachers heard the warn
ing of the wind and dismissed the
schobl. Miller, and' the children start
ed back. t.
Sensing the approach of a blizzard
of vicious proportions. Miller took a
short cut which routed the bus off of
heavily traveled roads. He had not
gone far before a roaring blast nf wind
and snow threw the bus into a ditch—
stalled. j „.
All through the day Miller stayed
with the children. The wind ripped
away at the pasteboard in the windows
of the bus. Night came and still no
car came to rescue the children. At
dawn there still was no aid and Miller
went for help.
He left the children, ranging in ages
upward from six, in the care of Bryan
Untiedt and Clara Smith.
Bryan and Clara kept Jhe children
moving within the bus. They had them
pinch each other to keep them from
falling asleep. They gave their meager
clothing to the smaller tots. In the
hours that followed five children lapsed
into a heavy sleep and then ipto death,
despite all that Bryan and Clara could
do.
When aid finally came, the fifteen
surviving children were rushed to a hos
pital where all recovered. Miller was
found frozen to death not far from the
bus. ^
