What is a
Bank?
A modern bank is more than a depositary for
noney; more than a place upon which to issue
checks.
A modern bank is an institution of helpfulness to
its depositors and clients- It is interested in
seeing that they are prosperous and successful
in their financial ventures.
Depositors who let us help them with advice
oorn of long experience, can testify to the value
Df our service.

London Fashions Prescribe
Military Hats for Women
LONDON. Jan. 28.—The smart four
gallon busby that tops off the full
dress uniform of British guardsmen
and delights the feminine contingent
that never fails to be interested in
the picturesque ceremony of guard
mount at Buckingham Palace, has
been copied by London milliners, in
a miniature bearskin hat that prom
ises to be popular at the winter style
shows. The new hat fits closely
over the ears and is held in place by
a regulation military chin strap.
Another innovation for the winter,
this time in footwear, is the use of
ostrich skin for shoes. The skins
are dyed brown and the holes from
which the feathers have been pluck
ed assume a deeper shade, adding an
effective decorhtion. One London
bootmaker lias been showing shoes
made from walrus hide, and is ex
perimenting with the skin of the ray
lish, which he thinks will prove suc
cessful for footwear.
FREIGHT CHARGES HAVE
ONLY SLIGHT BEARING
ON LIVESTOCK PRICES
WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—Freight
charges on livestock shipments were
declared today by the bureau of rail
road economics to bear little relation
to the price the purchaser pays for
livestock while the producer or sel
ler at point of shipment receives net
proceeds of 91 2-5 cents on each
dollar.
Freight charges as set forth in a
survey by the bureau amounted to
5 3-5 cents of each dollar paid by the
purchaser and other costs of distri
bution totaled three cents.

GIBBONS MAYS FACE
CHAMPION IN MAY;
WILLS WANTS BOUT
NEW YORK, Jan. 28.—The 1925
fistic calendar holds prospects for a
more interesting campaign than last
year, but peciuliar circumstances sur
rounding several divisions may again
prove a barren to title activity.
The most attractive outlook for the
new year hinges on the probability
that J^ck Dempsey will risk his ti
tle for the first time since his meet
ing with Louis Firpo in September,
1923. The heavyweight champion
may take on two opponents, Tommy
Gibbons and Hafry Willis. Gibbons
probably would face the champion in
May or June, with Wills, providing no
other candidates jump up in the fore,
reserved for a climax to the outdoor
season in September. Promising ma
terial is bristling in most of the other
divisions, particularly among the light
heavyweight and middleweights. Few
champions appear anxious to run un
due risks.
Middleweight Champion Harry Greb
faces formidable foes in Tiger Flow
ers, Atlanta negro, and Jack Delaney.
Kid Kaplan, recently crowned as
featherweight king, promises to keep
up active work, with Bobby Garcia,
Mike Dundee and Babe Herman
among his most dangerous foes.
LONDON PLANS BIG GARAGES
LONDON, Jan. 28.—Another con
templated American innovation for
slowmoving and slowchanging old
London, is a plan to build a number
of super-garages of several stories
and each accommodating fiom 200
to 500 motorcars. At present there
are few large garages in London and
few car owners drive into the city.
HURLING HAM CLUB TO
ENTERTAIN POLO PLAYERS
LONDON, Jan. 28.—The Hurling
ham Polo Club has invited represen
tatives of the American army to be
guests of the club during their stay
in England next year, says the Polo
Monthly.
“It is expected,” says the magazine,
“that the American army team will
arrive in England in May, and great
interest will attach to their matches
against the British army whom they
defeated so unexpectedly in the lT.
S. last year. It is at least, certain
that Sir Harold Snagge will spare
no effort, with the assistance of Lt.
Colonel Scott-Duff, to give the Am
erican soldiers a very agreeable time
during their visit to this country. The
inter-army matches at Hurlingham
I promise to be the most attractive fea
ture of next season’s nolo.”

Germany Overrun Now
With Cheap Cabarets
BERLIN, Jan. 28.—There are today
so many places of amusement in the
| German capital that they interfere
I with each others’ business, and but
few of them do well financially
Most marked in recent years has
been the development of the opera
and the revue. While before the
war Berlin had two operas, it now
has lour; while it boasted of one re
vue in 1914, six are now competing
with each others.
Not included in the 51 theatres run
ning today are the movie houses and
| the cabarets. There . were hardly
any cinemas in Berlin before the war;
now there are 330 of them, supplying
for the most part American films. In
1914 the idea of a cabaret was asso
ciated with but two institutions, the
“Liden” and the “Black Cat.” Now
there are 62 of them. When a res
taurant has difficulties in maintaining
itself, it promptly installs a cabaret
