Available Money Reserves
The main object of the Federal Reserve Banking System, of
which we are a member. Is to make more available the untied
money reserve of the strong bank of the county.
Even in normal time there come seasonal loan demands ot
which the average eltlien Is unaware. The farmer must have
money loaned htm tor planting and crop moving. Interest and
tax payment periods each present their 8ecial banking require
ments. The Federal Reserve Bank through which a member bank
may quickly convert commercial paper into available assets when
most needed enables us to meet these needs.

The Twilight ' Baseball league
opens its season this evening at the
A. A. C. ball park on Bridge street,
when the Merchants and Mechanics
meet. The ioor condition ot the
playing field at the High school

park necessary. The spectators will
have the advantage of a comfortable
grandstand at the park.
While neither ot the team captains
have claimed the pennant so far, yet
each seems to think his team will
foe right up in the running. Captain
Bratton, of the 'Merchants, states
that his battery will be either. Llum,
Vernon Cob urn, or Bratton, as pitch-
er and Elmer Gilmore. catcher. Cap
tain Pernoll iputi forward Joe Gal
tin, H. Faublon or Pernoll, as pitch
er and Fred Collins, catcher.
The game will start promptly at 7
o'clock and will 'be a 5 inning con
test, as U usual in the twilight
games.
