Conver. who has been em ployed as flagman at Dunmore, on the Custer Battlefield highway, to flag down automobiles while the work of oiling the highway is under way, met with what might have been a serious accident, Sun day evening. He had just flagged down a truck and taken up the traffic instruction card, handed to the driver by the flagman at the other end of the stretch under construct ion, and stepped backward into the roadway to let the truck pro ceed, just as a car driven by George H, Downey of the Sheridan Iron Works, who with his wile and daughter was going to Billings, started to pass the truck. The car hit Mr. Conver and knocked him down. He was immediately taken to the Hardin hospital, where it was found he had received a scalp wound, requiriing several stitches to close, a sprained ankle and several bruises. Had not Mr. Downey slowed up his car as quickly as he saw Mr. Conver step out into the roadway, the result might have been much worse. As it is. Mr. Conver was able to re turn to his home. Wednesday and will be able to resume his work shortly. DEPOSITS INSURED The Federal Deposit Insurance Corpnration WASHINGTON, D. C. mnnn maximum insurance ?JUUU FOR EACH DEPOSITOR SUUUU i The FIRST NATIONAL BANK and the BIG HORN COUNTY BANK today received from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation at Washington the official signs which will hang at all receiving windows as visible evidence that the depositors of these institutions are insured. Both Hardin Banks are among the more than 14,000 licensed banks in the country which are receiving these signs. Insured banks are able to offer protection to their depositors up to $5,000. Statistical studies have shown tl at this maximum fully protects more than 97 per cent of all the depositors in insured banks. A statement by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corpora tion follows: “The purpose of the signs is to let depositors know which banks are insured. Heretofore, although 90% of the licensed banks are insured, depositors have had no easy means of identifying them. “If, by any unforseen circumstance, an insured bank should suspend, the Insurance Corporation would begin J..tying off the depositors just as soon as a receiver was ap pointed for the closed institution. The depositors would re ceive their money in a few days instead of waiting months or years as was the case in the former method of liquida tion. This is not only a benefit to the depositors, but it saves a community from a terrific economic and social blow. When the depositors receive their insured accounts they assign their claims to the Insurance Corporation. There after liquidation proceeds on a business-like basis with the maximum chance of the corporation and other creditors paid in full.” LOCALITEMS i Dan R. Miller of Garland was here Friday and Saturday look ing for a place to winter a car ' load of horses. While here he was I the guest of an old-time friend, J. iA. Martelle. Sunday night Robert Wolcott, ! son of C. A. Wolcott, had a park i ing accident which did about SSO i damage to his father's new Ply i mouth sedan. He turned into । the curb in front of the Hardin I bakery for the purpose of parking, only to discover that the parking space was taken by a motorcycle. Instead of backing out into the street, he attempted to turn to the left but because of lack of room was unable to do so and the front of his car collided with the rear of John Yerger's beet truck, cut ting a big gash in his radiator and otherwise damaging the car. o F. D. Wilson, a cousin to J. D. McDowell and Logan Kingston, farmers residing south of Hardin, accompanied by his son-in-law. Elzie Johnson, arrived Monday from Worland. Wyo.. to look the country over and visit a few days with the cousins. Mr. Wilson has । been a sugar beet grower at Wor land for a number of years and has been uniformly successful in this pursuit, but this year the farmers of his section have been short of irrigating water and he io thinking strongly of moving to the ' Big Horn valley, where water is ' plentiful, even in a drought-strick |en year such as this.
