Local Banker Tells of Some that Visit Mim. A local banker who finds the bank ing business one of the easiest and pleasantest of pastimes, handed The Advertiser news-gatherer the follow Ing little clipping the other day, say ing, at the time, that the Instructions contained in it were needlessly print ed as they are already faithfully ob served by the best bank customers: If you have any business at the bank, put it off till 3 o'clock or a lit tle later, as it looks more business like to rush In just as the bank is closing. In depositingl money, try to get it upside down and wrong end foremost so that the teller may have a little exercise in straightening it out before counting it. If you mtake a deposit of one huniii dred dollars and give a check for fifty dollars, it is a good thing to call fre quently at the bank and ask how your account stands. This vilI impress the banik ollicers favorably with your blus Iness u(11111lilcations. If a check is nade payable to your order, he careful not to indorse it be fore handing it to the teller, but let him return it to you and wait while you endorse it. This helps to pass the time and is a pleasure and a relief to tho teller. You can genorally'save time when making a deposit by counting down your money to the teller, as you can nearly always counL. more speedily and correctly than he can. When you make a deposit do not use a deposit ticket, but mix indis criminately together checks and bills. This wil facilitate matters exceeding ly. Always date your checks ahead. It is a never failing sign that you keel) a good balance in the bank; or, if you do not wish it generally known that you are doing a good business, do not deposit your money until the very last moment before your check will be in. When you ask the teller for change for ten, be sure and wait until he has -counted you out ten one's and then hand it back and tell him that you wantod it in quarters and halves. It Ns custoniary to do this because Bank Tellers are supposed to be mind readers. * .MT. HETJIEL NEWS. * * *** * ** * * * *9* . Mt. Bethel, Nov. 29.-The sehool at Mt.
