The collie, prancing from the woods as the chiefs car approached, rolled over and yelped frantically to attract attention. The dog then led the officer through the brush to the entangled pup. MISTOOK THIEF FOR SLEEPWALKING MATE {Continued from first page) Spouse Razzes Prowler, Lodger Just Yawn*. and '•yr .• V,\ „ ' " Added Liability Hinders Giving Banking Facilities to Communities -- ,,The minimum capital now required to (i.'i,organize a national bank or a state "'-'bank is $50,000. A state bank with j-$50,000 capital may Be organized in . «ny city under 10,000 population, but national bank of such size cannot be i* .organized in a city of over 6,000 popu- ...v ilation. There are cities ih Illinois rO"}^,7b§tween 6,000 and 10,000 population ,-without a bank because $100,000 can- -.not be raised to organize a national Y'bank. If- the added liability were re- 1 •• moved from state bank stock, such a . community could raise $50,000 and or- ' ganize a state bank. These communities are denied banking facilities because investors will not buy stock in a state bank until the banking laws are , brought into harmony with those ol the nation and of other states. ' . Centralization of Banking is Against the Public Interest--The preservation of the dual, banking system under which banks may be organized and operated under either a national bank charter or a state charter is in the , ,, public interest. A dual system com* posed of state -banks under supervision of state authorities and national . banks under supervision of federal N authorities, operating in competition, is in accord with American tradition and institutions. Preserving the unit : . bank owned by residents of the community will be aided by retaining the state banking system. Otherwise, CHICAGO.--Vainer husbands may dress to go sleepwalking. Not Arthur Liebson. He's an old-fashioned sleepwalker. Pajamas are good enough for him. And so Mrs. Margaret Liebson had to pinch herself to believe it really was her husband prowling around on his hands and knees at dawn one day recently in street clothes and a hat, looking under the twin beds in their Chicago home. "So you're putting on airs," she Said. "Dressing up to go walking, in your sleep. Somnambulating, I suppose you'd say.. Really, Arthur, this is going too far. Wake up now and go back to bed." And she fell back drowsily upon her pillow a$'the searcher turned without a word and crawled bearlike to the door. She laughed aloud when he got to his feet and vanished into the hall. Husband Wakes Up. Her laughter awakened her husband, who was sleeping on the other twin bed as he should have been. "O, it wasn't ySu!" cried Mrs. Liebson. "O!" She noticed then that the $1.90 of household money she had left on the table was gone. Her husband leaped from bed and followed just in time to see a man leaving by a window no one had ever been able to raise. The Liebsons awakened their lodger, Irwin Rumbaugh, and told him they'd had a burglar in their home. branch banking with its centralized,! "Then he's the fellow who was in here and took llow sWeater non-resident control, may come. 1 Vote To Preserve State Banking System--The continuance of the state banking system of Illinois is threatened unless the proposed constitutional amendment is adopted. - The strong tendency will be to organize national banks instead of state banks and for existing state banks" to get national charters. Only five state bank charters have been issued in Illinois since the bank moratorium in 1933. During the same period sixteen state banks have been converted into na said Rumbaugh. He looked at Liebson, an attorney, 30 years old. He yawned. And he told Liebson,- as he went back to sleep: "I thought it was you--sleepwalking/* WHY= Umbrella May Be Hit Durin» a Thunderstorm. «- Never walk about with an umbrella during a thunderstorm. That is one of the important bits of advice which scientists give us. And the reason? The metal frame will attract lightning. Better be wet than dead, says a writer in London Answers Magazine. Forked lightning, which looks more exciting, is also more dangerous. Sheet lightning is only a reflected glow of a flash that is a long way off--usually below the horizon. If you are but walking and your companion is struck by lightning, don't lose your head. If possible, loosen the victim's clothes and take off any that are wet. As soon as possible gtft the sufferer to bed with plenty of warmth. Lots of blankets and a hot-water bottle. It may be necessary to apply artificial respiration. - When the patient can swallow, lots of black coffee should be given hirn. Don't forget that lightning burns. In your anxiety to administer hot coffee, remember that the burns on the victim's body need treating. The chances are several million to one that you won't get struck ih a thunderstorm. But someone ge's hurt in every big sltorm, and prompt' action may save a life. / > * . Why Japan Is Called L" , "Land of Risinc So;-." . In the; year 671 A. D. the Chine: e gave the name Jihpen to the archipelago' situated east of their empire. The first syllable of this narr.e is represented by a character meaning sun, or light; the last syllable by a character meaning origin, or roof. The word is thus translated as "origin of the sun." Japan, being east of China, it is easy to" understand how the name "Land of the Rising Sun" became applicable to this country. The Japanese, who borrowed their writings and many of their terms from China, adopted this name also, but modified its pronunciation to Nihon. Another form is Nippon, or Dai Nippon.

Many the treasure hunt until water and small communities which lose their J ^ small state banks which are adequate ~ for local needs cannot replace them under the national banking act. The public interest will be served by preserving the state banking system. The proposed amendment is in no sense a partisan measure. It is apdorsed by citizens of all walks of life interested in the general welfare of the state. The constitution is the people's law. They establish it and only they can change it. When a provision of the constitution no longer serves the interest of the people it should'be changed. To adopt the proposed amendment, it must receive a majority of all the votes cast at the general election, not just a majority of the votes cast upon the proposed amendment. All who neglect to vote on the proposition are really voting against it. Floyd E. Thompson, former chief justice of the Illinois Supreme Court, is chairman of the Constitutional Amendment Committee. Vote "Yes" on November 8. Included in the crew of 10 were the schooner's owner and skipper, Herbert Talbot, a Boston wool broker, and Mrs. Talbot, and their son, Story. ' The most modern diving equipment was obtained to expedite the search for treasure, announced Talbot and the women have their duties cut out for them. All three rehearsed frequently with the telephone- equipped helmets on the Boston harbor floor for several weeks, wearing lead-weighted shoes and bathing suite. Talbot explained he has completed a study of sunken treasure ships which he believes will yield a considerable fortune. Why Some Water Is Blue The blue color of some water is the result of absolute purity or of depth. According to Sir J. Murray's book, "The Ocean," it has been found that ordinary distilled water is a greenish color, believed to be due to impurities remaining in the water after distillation while absolutely pure water has a beautiful clear blue color. In the open ocean the water is generally bluish, while near land and in estuaries it -is green or yellowish green. "Smith's College Chemistry," by James Kendall, states that deep layers of water have a blue or greenishrblue color. FOR SALE FOR SALE--6-Room House on Waukegan street; also household furnishings.

The French being the original translators of the Indian name, their pronunciation became permanent. The French did not pronounce the final "c" and gave the "a" a broad sound. Thus,vMichilimackinaw became the accepted rendering. Later the name was contracted to Mackinac, pronounced Mackinaw. WE PAY--From $1.00 to $10.00 for old, crippled, down or dead horses and cattle.

KALEIGH 010 MOT ^ INTRODUCE TOBACCO '•ytr Ut; INTO ENGLAND Record of Veteran Is Cleared After 78 Years WESTBORO, MASS.--In 1860 Cyrus M. Bryant was an inmate of the Lyman school. He was 15. He ran away. The War Between the States found Bryant enlisted with the Union forces. He was decorated for valor. His travels took him to Little Rock, Ark., where he found work as caretaker of a cemetery. For the last half century Bryant was superintendent there. Nevertheless his conscience troubled him. At the age of 93, Bryant returned to Lyman to surrender* His record was cleared. V Although the introduction of to- .iMlcco into England is usually atjtributed to Sir Walter Raleigh, the iifact is that this product was first taken there either by Sir John Hawkins, in 1565, from Florida; or- by Sir Francis Drake, in 1586. Previous to the introduction of this plant in England, it had been brought to Spain in 1558 by Francisco Fernandes, a Spanish physician. It was violently opposed at first throughout Europe <and was forbidden in Switzerland. In France the plant was first popularized by Jean Nicot, from whose name the term "nicotine" originated. In England Sir Walter Raleigh was one of the prominent persons who popularized the use of tobacco. He raised it himself in Ireland. WNU Service. Teased Bees Tee Off SAN JOSE, CALIF.--Sergt. Ray Blackmore and Patrolman Jack Patrick feel that it is unnecessary for citizens to telephone the police to investigate cases, of where gangs of boys are "teasing" hives of bees. In response to the last request of this kind^ they found upon arrival that the Wife were "teasing" the boys. Why "Half-Hour" Time Is Used In some countries where standard time is used they qualify it by being on the "half hour" because the half hour more nearly agrees with the local time and seems to have an advantage. Among them, New Zealand uses time 11 % hours faster than Greenwich; Burma, 6% hours faster; India, excepting Calcutta, 5% hours faster; South Australia, 9% hours faster. Why It Is "Latin America" The countries south of the United States are referred to as "Latin America," because the prevailing language of these countries is of Latin origin. France, Spain, Italy and Portugal are also called Latincountries because their languages were influenced more by Latin than the languages of other countries. Why Wire-Girdled Trees Die Wire-girdled trees die because the wire cuts through the cambium as the tree grows, thereby severing the vital connection between the roots, which take up water and raw food, and the leaves, which transform water^nd raw material into elaborated plant food. Fire Chief Forgets V IN IT A, OKLA--Elmer Gentry, Vinita fire chief, parked his car on an incline and walked away. When he looked back, the machine was not there.
