IGETTING WISDOM
The Boob of Proverbs is full of good advice to youngpeople and the heart of it all is GET WISDOM I
Wisdom is knowing what to do and how to do in all thevarious occasions of life The man that finds the bestway to do the common duties and also when new orsudden occasions rise dues not lose his head but knowshow to act in any emergency that man has wisdom healways succeeds his neighbors have confidence in hisjudgment and his ability They say he can makethings go he always knows just what to do No wonder Solomon said wisdom is better than gold or silvermore precious than diamonds or rubies
Now how can we gt wisdom Wisdom is the re ¬
sult of two things a trained mind and experience Agood school lilts Berea is the best place to get your mindwell trained First there are a largo number of skilfulteachers who know the best and quickest to trainthe minds of their pupils a good teacher is worthmorethan a thousand books two teachers are better than oneand forty are better stillbrightenergeticuptoradeship

Hoya Bank is Managed andWhat Makes a Bank Safe
A bank is a stock company or cor¬
poration It dues out belong to anyone man Every person who hashelped to furnish tho banks capitalhas a share in the management of thebank
Tbcso people who own the bankscapital are called stockholders andthey ure the bank The fifty thousanddollars capital of the Bcrca flank andTrust Company Is owned by fiftythree different people Wnen you dealwith this bank you arc dealing withthese fiftythree different people
Most of tho stockholders of the Be5i8 Bank and Trust Company live in
Madison County and in the nearbycounties of Jackson Rcckcaitlo andGarrard But even though most of thepeople who have a share In the bankdo live close to Berea it would not betpossible for all of thorn to cometo the banks place of business everyday to take deposits cash checks andloan money
And so the stock holders have sel-
ected ten men from among them ¬
selves to have charge of the bankand run tho business for them Thesemen are Mr J J Moore Dr P Cor¬
nelius Mr E T Fish Mr J WlHerndon Mr A W Stewart Mr WH Porter Mr Choa Burdttte Prof JW Dlnsmoro Mr J E Johnson andMr J F Dean
These men are the directors of thebank Tho peopo who own thebanks capital and who are personallyliable for the banks debts know thattheir Interests in the bank will bowell looked after They picked thesedirectors to run the bank for thembecause they knew that they are hon-
est¬
that they are good buclness menand that they will see to it that thebatik Is run safely and according tohw
But the directors are all busy menand they can not spend all their timeat the bank every day and Itls notnecessary for them to do so So thestock holders through tho directorsemploy a cashier and assistant to stayat the bank all tho time to take in deposits and cash checks and do thebookkeeping for the bank
So this bank Is not a one man Insti ¬
tution but Its various Interests oftclosely looked after by its Board Of
Directors who are responsible to thostock holders and to the State of Kentucky for the faithful discharge ofthe banks obligations
And once every month all of the di¬
rectors meet at the bank and thor¬
oughly sift everything that the cashierand his assistants have done Theylook at the notes and see that theyare all good They count tho money
and see that It is all there And theygo over the books and ceo that theyare correct
So when you deal with a bank al-
ways
¬
remember that It Is the stock
holders who are the bank that tho
directors are managing tho bank asagents for the stock holders and thattho cashier and the clerks who help
him nro agents for tho stock holdersand directors and are heavily bondedto the bank for the faithful dischargeof their duties
And In Judging of the safety of B
bank always Inquire what is theamount of tho banks capital and whoare tho directors who are funning thebank If the capital is sufficient andthe Directors are honest and good busbees men and Jf they visit the bank 1
often to see that it is run right thenthe bank Is safeand It Is a good bankt + put your money in for safekeep ¬
