Jan. 4. OneKhous ind w -nen are employed in the banks of Boston. This would not be surprising but for the fact that a large proportion are cm-p-7ed as expert clerks an elas tic term In all departments of the institutions. Tho women were employed, in many cases with reluctance, when the boys went marching away, they are said to have she wn adap tability to the banking business. Miss Caroline P. Stickle, in charge c-f the woman personnel in an institution employing 314 women, says that last year 200 women bank clerks occupied much of their spare time obtain ing added knowledge of the principles and details of banking afforded by the evening courses conducted for the benefit of the Boston chapter of the American Institute of Banking.

(spec lal to The Statesman) The an nual meeting and banquet of the Dallas fire department was held last evening. VirgU Ballantyne was elected president of that or ganization. Fred B. West treas urer, and Walter Craven secre tary. Following the business meeting a banquet was held at the Hotel Gail, at which, the mayor, members of the city coun cil. the newspaper editors and few invited guests were present. After a sumptlous feed or three courses talks were made by dif ferent members of the fire de partment and the city council, in rprard to the nurchase of new fire fighting equipment for the city of Dallas. Many plans were taken up and stecussed, but no act'.on taken on any one plan. That the clt7 is in need of ad ditional fire protection is a fact known to members of both bodies and it Is to be hoped that before long a way will be seen toward financing a movement to get auto drawn equipment, as practically all members of the council are In favor of this type of fire fighting apparatus. One of the able talkers at tne banquet was the chief of the Corvailis fire department, who brought out many fine points iu fire fighting unknown to either the department here or the mem bers of the council. blue.
