2 WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1925 LAUNCH MUSIC SERIES OCT. 12 Edward Johnson Appears as First Recitalist Those north shore residents who are lovers of good music will hail with joy the beginning of the 1925-26 artist-recital series sponsored by the Winneta Music club, formerly the MacDowell Musical club of Winnetka. The first concert of the series will be given at the New Trier high school auditorium Monday evening, October 12, it is announced. Although the number of concerts has been increased from four to five, the price of the tickets for the series remains the same--$6. The artists have all been engaged, and it is pre-, dicted that the coming season will surpass any former one in merit. The opening of the series will be a song recital by Edward Johnson, Metro- politan tenor, who made his Metro- politan debut in the leading role of "The Love of the Three Kings." Edward Johnson was born in Guelph, | building will cost $12,000. Canada, but began his musical career in this country. He was engaged for the principal tenor role of Oscar Strauss' "The Waltz Dream" by a group of American theatrical managers in 1907. He was thought to be the only singer on the stage at that time capable of mastering the technical dif- ficulties of this part. His success in this field turned his ambitions toward opera, so he went to Italy and studied under the famous Lombardi of Florence. He attained great popularity in that country, be- coming the principal tenor-robusto of the opera houses of Rome, Florence, Genoa, Milan and other cities. Never before had a male singer of foreign birth won such popularity with the Italian music lovers. Johnson's voice possesses the true Italian timbre in both its ardor and sonorous qualities. He sings with power, but is capable of reserves and is subject always to the discipline of musical understanding. His perform- ance will be a delight to those who love a song and the artistry behind it. A few season tickets are still avail- able. Tickets for the artist recital series may be obtained from Mrs. Grant at the Winnetka State bank.

Huszagh, wealthy Chicago broker, while driving an automobile in front of the latter's new home at 230 Sheridan road last Thursday morning, was held to the grand jury by Police Magistrate Charles Franklin of Evanston on a charge of manslaughter last Friday afternoon. Edison had been held re- sponsible for Huszagh's death by a coroner's jury a short time before. According to the testimony at the in- quest, Huszagh had dodged through a line of soldiers which was marching along Sheridan road and was struck by Edison when he stepped out from the line. Edison stopped but later fled without giving any assistance or tell- ing his name. He was traced through the license number of the car which was noted by Harold Hill, of the real estate firm of Hill and Stone. Hus- zagh's wife was sitting nearby in their automobile and witnessed the accident. Edison is held under bonds of $5,000. BUILDS $12,000 HOME Ellis W.

It buys credit at wholesale and sells it at retail-- just as a merchant trades in com- modities. The Bank "buys" credit from a mutitude of people who deposit their funds, subject to withdrawal when needed; and who do not all need their money simultaneously. The source of supply is a continu- al inflow of deposits; and the re- payment of loans, when due--credits previously sold for temporary use. The considerations depositors re- ceive for the temporary use of their money are: (1) safety of funds; (2) a convenient, safe, and time-saving method of transferring them; (3) the privilege of borrowing, when business requirements make it desir- able, and when customary credit re- quirements are met. Interest paid on time deposits, op- erating expenses, return on invested capital, taxes, etc., constitute the "cost" of the credit a bank buys and sells. The bank rate of interest is gov- erned by the law of supply and de- mand. Also, to some extent by the rediscount rate periodically estab- lished by the Federal Reserve Bank. This is no more controlled by an individual Bank than is the price of a commodity by a single merchant. The Bank with heavy deposits on hand and light demand is in the same position as the merchant whose shelves are overloaded when trade is dull. It is as difficult for a bank to make a profit when interest rates are very low as it is for a farmer to make a profit when prices of his products are below his cost. A bank deals in various other forms of credit. Exchange is one. When it sells a domestic or foreign draft, a traveler's check or a letter of credit, it simply transfers, for a small fee, credit available elsewhere. When a Bank discounts, for a patron, a note, trade acceptance, or other negotiable instrument it is, again, merely selling credit. Another form of service a Bank sells is collection service--it collects money for shipments of produce or merchandise against bills of lading; it collects notes or drafts for local or distant patrons,--transferring credits for a small consideration. While a Bank sells many finan- cial services, probably there is no other kind of business in which so much is done for patrons without charge. Business and financial counsel, of a quality and value that is charged for in other professions, is given to patrons without charge, by the Bank's officers.
