' No one thing gives a young man more prestige among business men
than a bank account '
The fact that a man has money In the bank, betokens habits of'thrift
and frugality.
, Nothing so begets a feeling , of confidence and self-reliance, as a
healthy, growing bank account.
To those who have not yet established themselves, we invite a care
ful consideration of our institution. Our strength, and our high posi
tion In the community, are unquestioned.

M.GN!FICEE EDISOX FEATURE.
If you want to see an audience key
ed up to the highest pitch, waich one
while "Jim, the Mule Boy," is uutoid-
lug its story 6n the screen. Probably
for the first time in the history of film
("rama, scenes in the depths o.' the
e:uth, in a coal mine in this instance,
are convincingly shown. 1
"Jim, the Mule Boy," the sole sup
port of his blind father and a moth.r
a:.l v. small sister, is stopped at thu
entrance to the mine into which he is
driving his car by the small son of the
owner of the mine. The lad wants to
ride on the car down Into the depths
of the ground. Jim puts him oif
laughingly, but while he is attending
to his lunch the small boy hides upon
the end of the car and unknown to
Jim, becomes a passenger. When Jim
discovers him down in ths farthest re
cesses of the mine, he starts at once
to take him back to the surface to his
father. ,
Then an explosion occurs, and we
see the walls of the shaft fall In,
blocking ths exit of the boys and prac
tically entombing them. Above ground
the father misses his little son, and
starting a search, is faced by the same
explosion. He summons a rescue par
ty to begin work at once.
AVe see the mule eating the straw
from his collar and Jim digging a
hole in the coal Into which a little
water seeps, which he gathers in his
cap and gives to his small charge,
keeping for himself only what remains
in the cap after he has squeezed it as
dry as possible. Then the boys aban
don hope and the little lad offers up a
prayer to the Father above. !
In the middle of It Jim's practised
ear hfars a sound in the distance. The
blows of a pick resound far off in the
earth. When finally the wall of rock
is tumbled down and the rescuers'
heads appear, the boys are too weak
to lift themselves to greet them. But
of course they are ljprne quickly to
the surface, and the proprietor re
wards Jim not only with a deed for a
house and lands and a promise of
steady work for himself, but also with
a handshake, which honor Is probably
more dearly prized than the house and
lands.
There Is novelty, pathos and keen
reality In every foot of this wonderful
film.
