Well, April Fool Day is over, but
we didn’t all get by without some-
one playing u® for the “fool.”
Edgar Hagenberger received a
nice box of sprigs, wood, nails, etc.
(all a trifle rusty) but nicely
done up and sent by mail.
Raymond Cicero payed twenty
cents for a large box sent collect
by express and marked Philadel-
phia. Suprised, Raymond paid and
excitedly opened the box. The
contents was a pair of very much
worn out shoes, slit and torn, in
fact, completely wrecked, to be re-
paired. They had been sent by a
business man, who lives just a few
doors away from Raymond's shop.
It was sent in return for an April
Fool telegram the business man had
received a short time before.

answered: “Webster.”
Joe Sheaffer, at our local post
office, says he gets so discouraged
with the postage stamps. They
get stuck on each other. But John
Dellinger told him that’s because
the feeling is mucilage...... Don’t

Kramer won't sell one cent stamps
because they're green. He waits
until they're ripe and sells 'em for
two cents.
“I got China when I turned on
radio in my car at three o'-

“China and what else?” asked a
pal.” China, flowerpots, milk bot-

A Florin fellow met a girl at a

“I'm always sitting up with sick

a lodge brother, don’t you ever
catch anything?” “Yes,” answered
the sick-sitter-upper—with, “the
devil frem my wife.”...There’s a
lot of other fellows have the same
trouble.
Speaking of wife trouble, I
overheard this conversation in front
of the Acme store on Saturday
night. The first husband remarked:
“Boy, I'll bet you turned all colors
when your wife locked you out at
4 a. m.” The second hubby an-
swered: “Exactly. First I was red
with embarrasment, then white
with rage and finally blue with
cold”. .;, That's seeing a rainbow

“Goodness, I believe you're com-

a Mount Joy street woman to her
spouse. “Well, do you know what
to do at the first sign of a cold?”
asked her husband. “Sure”, said
his wife, “lock up all the whiskey
in the house.” And she proceeded
to do so.
The way to get rich quick is to
meet a lot of millionaires, take

FISH CAUGHT ON BAITED
STONES CENTURIES AGO
Quantities of fish bones found
in the cave dwellings of prehis-
toric man indicate that the art of
fishing is at least 200,000 years old,
and rude tackle equipment of the
times shows that skill was prob-
ably even more important in land-
ing a catch than it is now. The
fish were speared with sharpened
stakes, caught with bare hands or
in nets made out of branches.
Hooks of flint came later, and a-
mong some of the oldest fishing
tackle found are banana-shaped
stones with a groove in the center.
About this groove was fastened
the line, probably a thong of raw-
hide. The stone was covered with
meat and when the fish swallowed
it, a quick twist of the wrist tur-
ned the “hook” crosswise in the
fish’s interior so that the catch
could easily be pulled out of the
water. This same method is used
today by French eel fishermen, and
by some Indians in catching salm-
on. The stone hook was supplan-
ted by those of bronze, which were
first fashioned without barbs, two
being used together at right ang-
les, forming a double hook which
could not easily be shaken loose
by the fish.

CARING FOR YOUR WATCH
During a sudden cold snap, a
watch should not be wound until
it has been warmed for at least
fifteen minutes. To wind it im-
mediately after exposure to cold
may break the spring. During the
night, the watch will run better
if it is in about the same position
it occupies during the day. The
timepiece should be wound in the
morning instead of at night. Itis
directly after winding that a watch
works best and can thus stand the
vibrations during the day. It
should be wound slowly, carefully
avoiding jerks. Count the number
of turns the spring will allow with-
out undue strain. These hints were
recently given by a large watch
manufacturer as practical ways to
improve the performance of the
timekeeper and prolong its life.

BANK CHARTERING
POLICY REVIEWED
State Official Declares Sound
Principles in Licensing
Banks Are Essential
PHILADELPHIA—Sound public
policy in chartering banks was dis-
cussed by Carl K. Withers, Commis-
sioner of Banking and Insurance of
the State of New Jersey, before the
Eastern Conference on Banking
Service, held here recently under
the auspices of the American
Bankers Association. He declared
that “few questions bearing on the
future stability and security of our
banking systems loom as more im:
portant than that of a sound policy
to be pursued in bank chartering.”
Alluding to competitive policies
of both state and national banking
authorities to charter the most
banks in the past, he said that “this
country was over-banked, and that
aside from any other consideration,
economic or otherwise, this condi
tion was brought about largely
through an unwise, unsafe and un-
thinking charter policy, alternating
between the state and national sys-
tems, which has marked and ham-
rered banking progress in this coun-
try since its very inception.”
Political Influence
He decried political considera-
tions in connection with the charter-
ing of banks saying: “Political in-
fluence has no moré place in bank
ing that it has in the deliberations
of our highest tribunal—The Su:
preme Court of the United States
Until this is recognized and bro
into being within both our state and
national systems, we may never feel
safe against the shifting sands of
political expedience and favor.”
As to the “element of sometime
ridiculous competition heretofore
existing between the state
tional systems,” he said that much
may be said in favor of the progre
made ia recent years. In
states there exists a practical work
in, agreement between local super
vising authorities and the federal
authorities, whereby all charter ap
plications are mutually considered
0° a basis of community need rather
than competitive advantage as be-
tween systems. In some states this
arrangement goes even further in
the refusal of the one authority to
even consider a charter while pend-
ing with the other,
Aside from the competitive and
political aspects of our future
for policy, he continued, ther
several others more individual and
local which merit consideration.
Among these he mentioned honesty
oi purpose, community need, the
character of management and ade-
quacy of capital.
Most state laws make reference

tc the “character, responsibility and |
fitness” of the incorporators of a
new bank, he said, continuing:
“So important do I conceive
