Heber City, June 27 The fifth an
nul! convention of the Utah Bankers'
mdl r.ssociation opened here at. 2 o'clock
this afternoon. The attendance was
dlrrrnlshed on account of the rainy
I In eat her. Many parties had planned
to make the trip to Heber in automo
biles Some gave up the project,
while others who started encountered
euch muddy roads they were forced
to abandon their machines and take
to the railroads. Several parties had
not reached Heber when the conven
tion opened.
The sessions are held in the Audi
torium of the Washington high school
building President A. P. Bigelow
cashier of the Ogden state bank, call
ed the convention to order at 2 o'clock
thlt afternoon with fifty delegates
present. The invocation was deliver
ed by the Rev. N. C Murdock of He
ber. Mayor Jame6 W. Clyde welcom
ed the visiting bankers He said that
Heber appreciated the visit of the
baukers because the banker is one ot
the most valuable citizens of any com
munity. He expressed the hope that
the delegates would carry away a
lasting impression of their visit. The
Hon. Charles R. Mabey, cashier of
the Bountiful state bank, responded
with a warm appreciation of the cord
iality of Mayor Clyde's remarks.
The keynote of the brief but inter
esting annual address of A. P Bige
low of Ogden, president of the asso
ciation, was the necessity of co-operation
between the farmer and the
banker. He called attention to the
fact that the banker was beginning
more and more to realize that the
prosperity of the country lies with
the farmer.
President Blgelow's address was as
follows:
President's Address.
"Four years ago the bankers of
Salt Lake issued a call to the bank
era of the state to meet with them
with a view to organizing an assocla
tr tlon. The time appeared to be ripe,
for the suggestion met with an en-
1 thuslastic response The Utah Bank
1 ers' association was the result. That
I meeting was presided over by Utah s
I leading banker, V. S. McCornick
L I "Since that time Mr. L S. Hills
H and his vice president, A. R Hey-
m wood, V S. McCornick and M. H
Walker have ably led the association
Hj In the brief time thus coered the
H custom of bankers meeting together in
Hfl convention to discuss the important
problems which concern themselves
and their clients has seen a most
HH wonderful development throughout the
"Many of the larger states have
BflH been divided geogra phically into sec-
tlons, and each group of bankers holds
its own convention, as well as par
jB tlcipatlng in the general convention
of the state association each year.
"The social side of these meetings
is very Important, bringing together
the bankers of the state, promoting
a more friendly feeling, and forming
acquaintances that can not but be
beneficial to all concerned Competl
tors meet who are, perhaps, in the
habit of regarding each other in .n
unfriendly light they lay aside the
1 harsher feelings they have harbored,
and after the personal tact, are un
able to longer feel any rancor and
their relations are sure to be mors
pleasant thereafter. A man who
sticks too closely to his business is

"Here in Utah wo all have, as on
important class of our customers. tho
farmers and stockmen. The bankers
throughout the country are just be
ginning to become interested In the
problems of the farmer and to recog
nize the fact that agriculture Is the
basis of all wealth and that stock
raising is its most profitable feature
Statistics show that there has been u
great movement from farm to city,

in the west, where so much lrgln soil
is being brought under cultivation, but
already our beet lands show a falling
off in yield per acre and a scientific
rotation of crop3 must be adopted,
for it is the wiser to consne the
soil than to try to bring back its pro
ductivity after impo erishment, as in
the eastern states.
"The first Btato organization to
take up this matter was Illinois, un
der B F Harris, then president of the
association So ably ami earnestly
did he discuss these matters that the
nearby state associations took up the
questions, and now, in over twenty
states, has this movement almost
taken tbe center of the stage. So in
terested did Harris become and his
Investigations so impressed him with
the magnificent possibilities of agri
culture that he has abandoned the
banking business to become a scien
tific farmer and stockgrowcr, and is
making- a tremendous success of it.
'Here in Utahh the Agricultural col
lege is doing a big work for the
farmer, but I believe it is ever
banker's dutv to so inform himself
of the efficacy of scientific methods
that he can recommend them in a
convincing way to hl6 customers.

BAR THE GERM
One thing is certain the bus little
germ is responsible for about all tbe
ills that flesh is heir to, and if we
can bar its entrance we can keep
our systems free from the seeds of
disease.
The natural cavities of the holy
and the openings afforded by cuts,
scratches or insect bites arc the
points we should guard ; and it is
not enough to just keep them clean.
The germ is persistent, aggressive,
and more than cleanliness i3 neces
sary to quiet its activity.
Keep the germ out by destroying
it. Make the fight offensive instead
of defensive. Nip trouble In the bud.
The daih use of a reliable Peroxide
antiseptic as a mouth wash or douche,
or applied locally to cuts, bruises!
scratches or Insect bites, will do this

SIXTY YEARS

Washington, June 28 Easton, Pa ,

Sixty years In one profession is In I
self remarkable enough, but w hen
It is added that Supt. illiam V Cot
tingham'8 record is of sixty years
in the same position, his case appears
to be unparalleled.
Although few superintendents can
point to anywhere near as long term
of service as this, there are a number
who have served for many years.
Hat of some of the more notable cases
is given bj Mr. W. R Hood In the
city school chapter of the 1012 report
of the commissioner of education, just
issued. Supt. James M Greenwood
of Kansas City, Mo, is retiring aitcr
39 years of service; Supt. Glass at
Lynchburg. Va., has served since
1879; Supt. Phillips at Birmingham,
has served since 1883; Supt. McCly

The camps are now completed and

sights near the camp are the field

at Gettysburg lie burled, and Spang

are said to have saved many a life

included
When Charles W, Cole died last
year he had given 34 years of his life
as superintendent of schools at Al
bany, N Y., a position which his fa
ther had held before him for a long
period of years
Notwithstanding that life tenure is
bv no means an accepted principle in
American school systems, the average
term of school superintendents in
larger cities is much longer than is
usually supposed In 50 cities of 100
000 population and over the average
term of service is 7V years This
is in spite of the fact that school
superintendents are elected for com
paratively short terms, one, two. or
three years, generally, and to have
served long usually means to have
withstood many a stiff re-election con
test The tendency is constantly to
ward longer terms and fixed tenure
as conducive to efficiency.

REGARDING THE
CASHING OF
CHECKS
Persons cashing checks do so at
their own peril and cannot collect
from the innocent party i a fraud
I in connection With the checks, accord
Ing to a ruling of the supreme court 1
yesterday afternoon In the case of T.
D Simpson against the Denver & Rio
Grande Railroad company The rail
road's appeal from Judgment entered ,
against it in the district court is sus
talned. Simpson sued to recover $ 1 0O.TTi
and $93.49. being the respective I
amounts of checks which he cashed,
Issued by the railroad company, sup
posedly to E. C. Fields and C. B.
Rings firemen In the company's em
ploy It developed that the checks
had been obtained from the paymas
ler of tho railroad by two Imposters, 1
who represented themselves as Field ;
and Rings When the latter present
ed themselves for the,r monthly pay
the fraud was discovered and the rail
road refused to honor the first two
checks issued to the impostors, when
thev wfre returned by the bank in
which Simpson deposited them.
In the district court, Simpson was
given judgment against the njlrond
for the amount of the check in favor
of Rings, but was denied Judgment
in the case of Fields' check because
of the fact that the impostor had en
dorser the check as "Fiels" rathen
than Fields '
The supreme court holds that this
distinction was immaterial in as
much as both Indorsements were
equally fraudulent and rules further
that Simpson. In cashing the checks,
did so at his own peril and that the
railroad vvas an innocent party to
the fraud.
